The past few days were very peaceful for Abel. Although there were some wizard organizations that came to him from time to time to ask him to make potions, they would just send 5 sets of ingredients to the potion maker union and pay a price to get him to do it.
While he was living a peaceful life, some elves were not.
In a giant office in Bay Law City, a group of enforcers in red robes were gathered around a long wooden table. They were flipping through parchment records.
Behind the long wooden table where the red-robed law enforcers were sitting, there were rows of wooden cabinets, which contained the intelligence of the New Asia Empire over the years.
With the city spirit, most of the things could be left to it. However, the experienced enforcers preferred to trust the data they saw with their own eyes.
Since they were worried that something might happen to the city spirit and the data would be lost, the enforcers would make a copy of all the information in parchment.
Right now, these enforcers were looking for information about all the elves living in Bay Law City. They wanted to find something from the parchment records.
The tree of life told Abel about the unknown danger. Although Bay Law City didn't seem to be doing much on the surface, all the enforcers in the city were already on the move.
After checking with the city spirit, they didn't find anything suspicious, so they started to doubt the city spirit's analysis.
This was because they trusted the tree of life more. The tree of life was as important to the elves as the Moon Goddess.
Therefore, the most experienced intelligence officers of the intelligence department all came to this room where the intelligence was stored and analyzed in detail over the years.
"Monty, how long are we going to take?" A female enforcer called Cathy complained to her partner.
"Cathy, can't you see the captain is also here?" Enforcer Monty carefully looked at the captain, who was flipping through the records at the end of the table, and replied softly.
They had been here for a few days now, and they didn't get any useful information. They didn't even have a target. They could only rely on their intuition. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Huh?" At this moment, the captain who was reading the parchment suddenly spoke, startling the two intelligence agents who were distracted.
"Everyone, take a look at this report!" A glint flashed across the captain's eyes, but he did not seem to have much confidence. He raised his head and said to the intelligence officers.
This intelligence report was passed on to the various intelligence agents. Most of them were at a loss. They couldn't see anything wrong with this report.
The report clearly stated that it was about Lord Bali. It recorded the birth, growth, and education of this Lord Bali. Everything was recorded in great detail.
Even the results of his education were listed in it, and every detail of his growth was recorded in detail.
Lord Bali grew from a normal elf to a noble lord step by step. He even owned a castle outside the royal city.
"Captain, is there anything wrong with this information?" Agent Casey shook his head and said directly.
"No, Casey, I feel that this report is a little strange!" Intelligence Agent Monty disagreed with her and retorted.
"Monty, what's wrong?" Agent Casey asked.
She had read through the report, and she could clearly see the growth process of this Lord Bali. It was too detailed, and there was no way there would be any problems.
"I don't know what's wrong, but this report is too detailed!" Intelligence Agent Monty replied.
"Everyone here is an expert in analyzing intelligence reports. I want to hear your opinions. Let me tell you my thoughts first!" The captain gazed at the intelligence officers and lowered his voice.
He had indeed analyzed that there might be a problem with this report, but this was a lord. In order to investigate a lord, at least three intelligence officers would have to apply together. This was a form of protection for the nobles.
"First, this Lord Bali's title was given to him privately by Lord Angelo. It was not officially given out. This Lord Bali was only known by his name. Not many people have seen him in person!" The captain lowered his voice.
Of course, the intelligence officers knew about Lord Angelo, the fugitive governor of Bay Law City. He was the one who gave out the title. On top of that, this Lord Bali was very mysterious. Of course, something was wrong.
However, there were many nobles who didn't want to socialize, especially those who were interested in art. They had been studying art for many years, so it was normal that they didn't show up.
"Also, this report is just as Intelligence Agent Monty said. It's too detailed. It's almost like it was made by us professional intelligence officers!" The captain had a sneer on his face at this time. If their identities were really forged, then the former intelligence officers who were forced to leave the intelligence department because of the ouster of the former consul were implicated. It wasn't as simple as just leaving.
The reason why he was suspicious of Lord Bali's report was because it was too detailed. It was so detailed that he thought it was impeccable. But because of this, he was even more suspicious.
This was a piece of information specially made for the City Spirit. It would allow the City Spirit to not have any doubts about this piece of information when investigating suspicious people because it was too perfect.
How could a report be perfect? The elves' intelligence system was not made for Lord Bali alone. It was a bit too much to not have a single piece of data missing.
Everyone in the room was an intelligence officer. The captain's words reminded them of the contents of the report. If they only looked at a part of it, there was nothing wrong, but if they looked at the whole thing, it was too perfect.
"Lastly, Lord Bali actually owns a castle. That's the biggest problem!" The captain slammed the table and said loudly. He then analyzed, "A non-inherited noble. According to the report, the former governor gave him a castle. Since when did Mr. Angelo become so generous?"
"Captain, let's investigate Lord Bali. I'm willing to be an applicant!" Intelligence Agent Monty stood up and said.
"Captain, me too!" The other intelligence officers also stood up. After so many days of investigation, there was finally some progress. They were eager to finish the investigation as soon as possible.
… …..
Outside of Bay Law City, in an ancient castle, the former governor Angelo Harmon was sitting in the guest room. His face had some makeup on, so the elves who didn't know much about him wouldn't be able to recognize him right away.
He was sitting alone with a cup of coffee beside him. No one would have thought that he, who was supposed to be far away, would be in a castle next to the city with an officially recognized noble identity.
This was his backup plan. On the day he was chased, he was saved by someone, so he changed his identity and came back here.
When he came back, he knew his family was done for. His family's efforts for generations were all in vain.
He did not blame himself for the destruction of his family. Instead, he developed a deep hatred for the Lenny family, Master Bennett, Queen Luisa, the New Asia Kingdom, and the entire elven race.
The person who saved him gave him a chance for revenge and promised that he would become the leader of the elves. Of course, he would not be in the New Asia Kingdom, but in the Evil Kingdom.
Yes, the person who saved Angelo Harmon was a spy from the Evil Kingdom. In order to make Angelo Harmon submit, the spy promised him many things, including power, wealth, and more.
After being kicked out of his position, Angelo Harmon had experienced the temptation of power. Once he lost his power, he was looked down upon by all the elves, even the elves in his family. Therefore, Angelo Harmon had a morbid obsession to regain his power.
In other words, Angelo Harmon had gone crazy for power. His backup plan allowed him to live a carefree life until he died of old age without having to worry about food or clothing.
However, he didn't want to do that. He needed power, even if it was from the Evil Kingdom.
As long as he completed his mission, he could go to the Evil Kingdom and take over all the elves there.
If he completed this mission, all the elves around Bay Law City would be captured, and all his enemies would become his subordinates.
He was already thinking about the day when he would step on Duke Buddy and make Queen Luisa serve him tea.
Up to this point, he couldn't help but laugh. However, the craziness in his eyes did not match his happy mood at all.
"Should I see how it's going?" Angelo Harmon stood up and went through the bookcase in his study room and entered a basement.
The basement was very big. There were 10 warriors of death from his family standing guard on the side with long swords. In the middle, 2 magic circle masters were busy setting up something. One of them was an elven magic circle master, and the other was a human magic circle master.
In this small basement, just by looking at the situation now, one could tell that what was going on was in violation of the laws of the New Asia Empire.
A human appearing in the vicinity of Bay Law City was a violation of the law. Every human in Bay Law City had to be reported.
This human magic circle master was sent by the Evil Kingdom. He entered the castle through Ervo Forest, and the elven magic circle master was one of the warriors of death from his family.
These warriors of death were all trained by Angelo Harmon when he was still in power. They were all there to help him complete the mission from the Evil Kingdom.
"How many more days do you need?" Angelo Harmon asked the elven magic circle master as soon as he entered the basement.
"Master, it only needs half a day!" The elven magic circle master bowed.
"Very good!" Angelo Harman nodded satisfactorily.
There was a very complicated magic circle on the ground in the basement. It was a teleportation circle, and it was a large teleportation circle.
Every teleportation circle around Bay Law City had to be reported before it could be built, let alone a large teleportation circle like this.
As soon as this teleportation circle was opened, the city spirit of Bay Law City would be able to capture the space energy, and this place would be exposed.
However, all Angelo Harmon wanted was to open the teleportation circle, and his mission would be complete.
"Soon, you will know the consequences of messing with me!" His eyes flashed with hatred as he mumbled to himself.
… …..
Abel was at the potion maker union. He had just finished making a master's potion. As soon as he walked out of his potion making room, he saw the Big Druil Lendo.
"Master Bennett, sorry to trouble you again!" The Big Druil Lendo stepped up and bowed.
Abel was caught off guard. He immediately realized something must have happened to the tree of life again.
"Big Druil Lendo, what's wrong?" He quickly asked.
"The tree of life has been getting better since the last time I communicated with it, but this morning, large amounts of leaves appeared on the tree of life again. I want you to come with me to check it out!" The Big Druil Lendo said with a hint of begging.
Ever since the last time they met, Master Bennett's status had changed again. Master Bennett's reputation in the Central Continent was now on par with the Big Druil Lendo.
At the same time, Master Bennett was the only elf that could communicate with the tree of life. He was the one who helped the tree of life last time, so the Big Druil Lendo was very humble.
Abel also felt a sense of danger when he heard this. He didn't know if it was because of his connection with the tree of life last time, or if it was because of his intuition.
However, he knew that with his current power, he would have to be extra careful if he sensed danger. Now that he sensed it, danger would be coming soon.
He was not the tree of life. He didn't have the ability to sense danger for a long time.
He was in the potion maker union, and he was close to Bay Law City. He sensed danger, and with the tree of life's reaction and the warning from before, he was terrified.
"Big Druil Lendo, let me arrange it. I'll go with you immediately!" Abel lowered his voice.
"Master Bennett, please hurry!" The Big Druil Lendo nodded.
Abel walked into the potion making room and used his master badge to connect with the potion spirit through the teleportation circle.
"Potion spirit, get ready to move to the battle fort. Control all the puppets and move all the valuable things in the basement to the battle fort!" Abel said.
He then contacted Ling Qiong, "Qiong, transform the battle fort into a small castle. Once the defense circle is attacked, go into stealth mode and fly into the sky!"
He had a feeling that the danger this time was not as simple as it seemed. He needed to be prepared.
