Byron looked at the elf walking toward them and said, "Master?"
He was shocked.
From what he knew of history, the only ones who could be called "Master" by the elf were the four original witches.
However, it was impossible that there was an Original Witch in the bookstore that was less than a street away from them.
"The messenger favored by my Master has the right to represent my Master's will."
Doris turned to look at Byron. She narrowed her eyes and smiled. "The people of the Truth Society are becoming more and more ignorant. Is it the mercy of our Lord that has given you the courage to be ignorant, or has your curiosity gotten to your head and made you dare to spy on our Lord's existence?"
Byron was wearing the standard scholar's robe of the Truth Society, so he could be recognized at a glance.
He was no stranger to this tone. It was a typical firm believer who put their "Master" at the center of everything.
It wasn't just a formal religion like the Dome Church. When some of the fanatics of the Truth Society talked about the greatness of knowledge, they would also fall into this state.
The large amount of aether on the elf's body was as bright as a torch, emitting a dangerous aura without hiding it.
It made Byron's senses, which had been inexplicably blinded, suddenly wake up. His growing curiosity was instantly retracted. After a moment of shock, his back was suddenly covered in cold sweat. One second to remember: http://m.9biquge.com
What had just happened to him?
Look at what he had wanted to do. He had ignored Mr. Yue Sefu's advice and even argued with the elf. He had recklessly gone to a Level I area of the Miyaoyi Tower. Even if he had ten lives, it wouldn't be enough to satisfy his curiosity.
Byron was confused and scared. He swore that he didn't want to do this.
Although he was the person in charge of the Truth Society, he didn't have any combat power. He was just in charge of recording.
In a battle between two Annihilation Levels, the person in charge of the investigation should be Yue Sefu, who was also an Annihilation Level and a former Radiant Grand Knight.
But for some reason, he was hot-headed...
Byron fearfully glanced at the quiet bookstore. He smiled awkwardly and said, "No, no, no. I'm very sorry. Please forgive me. I only wanted to do my duty and investigate the matter clearly before reporting it. That's all. Your Lord is so benevolent. I believe he won't bicker with an ignorant person who seeks knowledge."
He had already discovered that this elf was the main character of the battle just now.
Since that was the case, all he had to do was figure out what had happened.
As for the bookstore … it was too dangerous!
Doris smiled. "You should be glad."
She walked in front of them and said, "For some reason, these Dark Sorcerers suddenly appeared and prepared to cast the destructive spell 'Extreme Death Ray' on the bookstore and its surroundings. I stopped them and killed them. That's all."
Yue Sefu took a step to the side and stood in front of Byron. "Why do you think they're doing this?"
He added a note to the information about the bookstore owner in his heart.
Through this incident, the Dark Sorcerers of the Crimson Sect had launched three attacks at the same time. All of them were targeted at the existence that had caused great hindrance to their actions. It could be considered a large-scale counterattack.
The battlefield here was only one of many.
In this half a month, under the investigation of the Truth Society and the Secret Ritual Pagoda, the secret strongholds of the Crimson Sect and the White Wolf were destroyed one by one.
However, the place where they hid the Demonic Mirror Egg was never exposed.
On one hand, they were cautious in their actions. Once they succeeded, they immediately opened a portal and retreated without stopping for even a moment.
Even if someone was caught, they would basically commit suicide immediately.
Although the Crimson Sect was not a sect, they acted as if they were all fanatics.
On the other hand, it was because 'Prayer' Morphy's Coffin of Eternal Sleep was constantly creating resurrected people.
There were many resurrected people who acted as puppets. Although their overall strength was relatively low, it still caused a lot of trouble for tracking and investigation.
This time, the concentrated counterattack was targeted at the Hunter Organization 'Spider' that had split from the White Wolf.
Because 'Rat' Rui En's intelligence network had been intercepted by them and they were very familiar with the composition of the White Wolf's members, this Hunter Organization had bitten the White Wolf to death. There were a few times when they almost directly killed the White Wolf who had not fully cooperated with the Crimson Sect.
The last remaining place was the daily counterattack against the Secret Ritual Pagoda and the Truth Society.
However, this time it was especially fierce.
It was obvious that the incubation of the Demonic Mirror Egg should have reached the final stage, so the final celebration had begun.
However, they did not expect that the problem this time was not at the bottom, but at the top, and it was at the top.
The highest leader, 'Prayer' Morphy, had died in this battle that they were almost certain to win.
It seemed that the bookstore owner must have done something overboard to be targeted by the Crimson Sect.
And now, he had allowed his subordinates to directly kill the leader of the Crimson Sect.
The bookstore owner had chosen to stand on their side!
Doris's smile was beautiful and gentle. She could see that the knight in front of her wanted to protect the young man behind him.
She tilted her head and revealed a somewhat distressed expression. "How would I know? Shouldn't I be the one asking you? I just came to Nuo Jin as a representative of the Iris Family, and I saw my Lord's emissary being attacked by these thugs. Shouldn't I retaliate? "
"Furthermore, I helped you stop these thugs. Not only are you not grateful, but you also intend to aggressively interrogate me. Is this the way Nuo Jin treats its guests?"
Yue Sefu moved his prosthetic limbs and nodded. "I admit that we did not handle this matter well. In fact, I am very grateful and respectful to the owner of this bookstore. He once lent me a book and solved a problem that had been bothering me for a long time. If it wasn't inconvenient today, I would definitely visit him now."
Byron hurriedly said, "Since the matter is clear, we can return to report. Thank you for your contribution to Nuo Jin. The Truth Society expresses its gratitude to you."
Before he finished speaking, the communication device on his body suddenly rang.
Byron picked it up and looked at it. His pupils shrank, and he immediately injected aether into it. He took a deep breath and said, "Vice President."
"Yes. Byron, pass the communication device to the great sage of the Iris Family. "
Byron immediately handed it over carefully and looked at Doris.
Doris narrowed her eyes and took it. The voice on the other side of the communication device was old but powerful. "Doris, I haven't seen you in three hundred years. How are you?"
"Andrew?"

Nuo Jin Central District, General Office of the Truth Society.
The pure white marble building was elegant and gorgeous. The smooth and shiny floor could even be seen clearly. The area from the center to the front desk was extremely wide. On both sides were sofas, chairs, coffee tables, and whiteboards. It was a discussion area.
This complicated thirteen-story building was like a combination of a huge teaching building and a library.
In the middle of the hollow courtyard, a specimen of an ancient dragon's corpse was sealed with glass. It was used as a scenic spot for people to admire.
At this moment, in a luxuriously decorated office on the highest floor, the scene was somewhat like an activity center for the elderly.
Two old men sat facing each other, and a chess game was placed on the coffee table between them.
"I didn't expect the Iris Family to appear again."
One of the old men turned his head and muttered to himself. He looked at the Vice President of the Truth Society, Andrew, who had walked to the balcony and was talking on the phone. "My former crush has suddenly appeared. Unfortunately, the once great youth has become an old man."
"Be careful, your alchemy funds will be deducted."
The other old man lowered his head and whispered in a low voice. He then reached out and moved a chess piece. "Wang Erde's bounty has been accepted, and there will be a large expenditure. Your messy research projects can wait to be shelved."
