Noland, inside the Music Guild.
"This is the information you want to share?"
Josiah sat in the Hall of Silence and looked at the burly man in front of him, Reyek, the leader of the Yfrk Snakes.
"The guy who hired us to assassinate you only seems to know this. He's also a middleman, not the mastermind behind the scenes." Reyek said to Josiah in a sincere tone, "But I think the reporter under your command must already know this information."
"You've seen through Qianmian's identity, but you did provide a piece of useful information."
Josiah glanced at the mercenaries standing outside the Hall of Silence. Reyek only brought two people today, which was also his way of expressing his sincerity.
"The potion to cure the effects of the Grey Fog is produced in the ruins of the Land of Frost. I also happen to need that potion," Josiah said.
"But the Land of Frost is too vast, and the location of the ruins is still unknown. Even if you entrust this task to us, I'm afraid we won't be able to complete it in a short period of time."
After Reyek obtained this information from the middleman, he had been thinking about whether or not to go to the Land of Frost.
But it would take at least three months to walk from Noland to the Land of Frost, and there wasn't even a hint about the ruins.
Finding a lost building group in the vast ice fields and mountains wasn't as simple as just relying on luck.
"I don't need you guys. I'll entrust an acquaintance to help. She should be able to find it."
When Josiah said this, the two members of the Yfrk Snakes standing outside obviously showed an excited expression.
It seemed like this mercenary group members also urgently needed this thing to save their lives.
"Mr. Josiah, if you get that potion, I beg you to sell us five bottles. When the time comes, no matter what you request, we'll definitely do our best to complete it," Reyek said in a low voice.
"I might not be able to get the potion. But then again, aren't you recording songs?"
Josiah pointed at the Ghost Band that had been waiting for a long time behind Reyek.
Without another word, Reyek turned around and walked to the Ghost Orchestra.
The main purpose of his visit to the Music Guild today was to record the two songs given by Josiah.
Not long ago, Josiah informed him that the instruments suitable for the two songs were ready, so he immediately rushed to the Music Guild.
He slowly walked to the main seat and flipped through the two songs that Josiah had given him.
The first song was very suitable for them to listen to when they were partying in the camp after the hunt. Just looking at the music score and lyrics, Reyek had the urge to shake his feet.
The second song … was probably a battle song. If one listened to it while hunting, no matter how strong the monster was, they would have the illusion that they could defeat it.
But it was undeniable that the two songs were enough to make his blood boil, and it was also enough to make the members under his command feel the same excitement.
This was the charm of music itself.
Josiah walked out of the Hall of Silence. Miss Hiri also followed him since it was a day off.
"Is it the Heresy Tribunal again?"
Hiri heard about what happened to the members of Yafferk Snake and was immediately sure that the symptoms were caused by the Nephilic Judges.
"A type of monster in the Frost Ruins. From the looks of it, it has something to do with the Nephilic Judges," said Josiah.
"But it also made the Nephilic Judges hate them. Are they really not afraid that too many people will mock them and one day they will be wiped out?"
From Hiri's point of view, the Country of Saint was surrounded on all sides. Although the various countries did not express their stance on the Country of Saint, there was enough negative information about the Country of Saint on the Magic Net.
"It's unlikely that they will be wiped out, but I always feel that the Heresy Tribunal doesn't seem to be afraid of this." Josh recalled the various changes that had occurred in the Demon Realm, and a sense of unease welled up in his heart. They're preparing to do something, but this preparation seems to have reached the final stage, so they're in a fearless state.
"So the protagonist should come out and save the world?" Hiri looked at Josiah and said.
"Save the world? Let's find someone else. All I can do is expose what the Country of Saint is doing and see if there are any heroes willing to do it when the time comes. "
Josiah did not have any plans to attack the Country of Saint at the moment, nor did he have the ability to.
But the various countries were not stupid. For example, the Land of Frost had already started to sharpen its sword. When the king finished integrating the forces in the country, the Country of Saint would probably welcome the epic mission 'Endless Winter'.
Josiah received a message while he was chatting with Hiri. It was a message from Frost Owl.
'The friend you entrusted to me surprised me.'
When the Frost Owl sent this message, it did not attach an owl emoticon as usual.
Just from this, Josiah could see that this Frost Owl was very serious now.
'Anyone would be surprised to see a sinful demon courier. Has the leaf of the World Tree arrived safely?' Josiah asked this owl as usual.
'The money I provided is still on the way, so it can't be paid for the time being. I expected to let your friend stay here for a few days.'
The Frost Owl quickly gave an answer.
'Stay for a few days? That's not a problem … But I want to change the payment. I need a potion that can cure the effects of the Grey Fog. It seems to come from some underground ruins in the Land of Frost. Whether it is related information or the potion itself, it can be used as a bargaining chip. '
'…'
This time, all the Frost Owl gave Josh was a series of ellipses. About ten seconds later, the Frost Owl gave him a series of ellipses.
'I don't know about this.'
'Is that so? That's a pity. But I'll leave the leaves to you for now. Just help me keep an eye out for this information in the future. '
Josiah noticed the Frost Owl's abnormality. He needed some time to get used to the fact that his friend might be the child of his nemesis.
'Wait, you're leaving it to me just like that? I haven't paid you yet. 'The Frost Owl looked a little flustered at the news.
'Then I can let Zenas keep it for a few days until you get the payment.'
'Please … leave it to me.'
At this moment, the Frost Owl forcibly suppressed the guilt in its heart and used a somewhat stiff method to accept the proposal.
To Josiah, the two hundred leaves were of no value. The World Tree only needed time to grow countless leaves and crystals.
The most important thing was to let the people of the Land of Frost come into contact with the Weave and develop a dependence on it.
This was the reason why Josiah let Zenas send the leaves all the way out. Another reason was probably to raise the Frost Owl's favorability towards him.
But now it seemed that not only did Zenas's appearance not increase the favorability, it also made her wary of Josiah's identity.
Josiah didn't think that he could hide his position in the Realm of Devils for long. This was the most suitable time to reveal it to the Frost Owl.
He hoped that this king would understand the principle that the enemy of an enemy could be a friend.
'Can I trust you?'
Suddenly, the Frost Owl sent a message to Josiah.
'You have to ask yourself this question.' Josiah sent the message and attached a funny Dwarf emoticon.
Josiah had done a good job of keeping his identity a secret. To be precise, he didn't have much fame on the Weave.
It was difficult to find any pictures of Josiah in the spellcaster forums, so the king couldn't confirm Josiah's true identity.
'I'll go to Noland to find you one day. I'll know then. Thank you for your help.'
