"Eckstedt is the main reason?"
Angor and Dorcas looked at each other. Both of them cared about Eckstedt the most. Their reasons were different, but they shared the same opinion about Eckstedt.
Black Earl said, "Perhaps Aixen is indeed a wizard of the good Lawful Faction, but it is also because of his Lawful Faction that some of his actions seem very peculiar."
"Something special?"
Angor asked. Black Earl nodded. "Do you remember Lucia mentioned something about Eckstedt? Although he has accepted teaching missions and is very patient with apprentices who seek his guidance, he doesn't like a certain type of apprentice, and he will never teach such people. "
When the Dark Count mentioned it, Dorcas immediately remembered and said, "I remember, it seems that Aikesi treats the Bloodline Faction differently in their teaching missions."
Angor added, "To be precise, Eckstedt only teaches Bloodline Wizards who haven't assimilated with a bloodline, or those who have assimilated with an Abyss Bloodline."
"You're right," Black Earl said. "I asked Lucia before. Apart from these two types of apprentices, do they have any common characteristics?"
"Lucia's answer: No."
"Also, Eckstedt never interacted with such people. Since they're all strangers, why is he willing to teach others but not Eckstedt? "
Angor and Dorcas didn't know the answer to Black Earl's question.
They thought about it before, but it was mostly subjective. They guessed that Eckstedt might have offended some Bloodline Wizards in the past, which was why he hated them so much.
As for why he would teach Abyss Bloodline Wizards? Maybe … he was saved by someone with Abyss Bloodline?
Black Earl continued, "Among the Bloodline Wizards who Eckstedt doesn't want to teach, some of them are considered bad people. But most of them are from the Good Faction."
"If Aixen is also a Wizard of the Good Faction, then why would he treat Bloodline Apprentices differently from the same faction?"
"Is it because he's different from others?"
Angor and Dorcas both fell into deep thought. Back then, they were more concerned about Eckstedt's personality and neglected this point. Now that he thought about it again, Aikesi's behavior was indeed quite strange.
But even though it was strange, did this have anything to do with the "attack on the Bilun Tree Court"? Why did the Black Earl point it out?
"Shark Planet Pureblood Society?" Both Dorcas and Angor thought of something at the same time.
Hearing this name, the Black Earl said softly, "Seems like you've thought of it."
"There's a connection between Eckstedt and the Pureblood Society?"
The Dark Earl shook his head. "Currently, there is no direct evidence that they are related. However, when I returned from the Bilos Family, I received a death toll. The death rate is as high as 70%, and the place with the highest number of deaths is the Shark Star Pure-blooded Guild. "
"There are a lot of buildings in the Guild District, and they are also very densely packed together. However, only the Shark Planet's Purebloods will be nearly destroyed. Although the surrounding buildings are damaged, they are not serious. "
"It's obvious that the attackers are the Shark Planet Pure-blooded Society, which they purposely destroyed."
"According to the Bilos family's deduction, there is only one possibility for the attackers to commit such a terrible act of destruction. They have a grudge against the Shark Star Pureblood Society, or rather, they have a grudge against someone in the Pureblood Society."
"But I heard from Lucia that the Shark Planet Pure-blooded Society is full of apprentices. They might have official wizards behind them, but they are only nominal members. They rarely come to the Shark Planet Pure-blooded Society's headquarters. As for the three attackers, they did not show any hatred toward the Shark Planet Pure-blooded Society when they were in Star Street. Plus, they are official wizards. From a probability perspective, they should not hold any grudges against the apprentices of the Shark Planet Pure-blooded Society. "
"If there is no grudge, why would they destroy the Shark Planet Pure-blooded Society?"
"Considering Eckstedt's strange behavior … I can only think of something related to the bloodline of these people."
Dorcas looked at the Black Earl in confusion. "Isn't this a bit too big of a jump? How did you come to this conclusion?"
Angor considered for a moment and answered, "Maybe because both Kristop and Sharon had a reason to attack Billon Tree Garden. Eckstedt was the only one who did not have such a reason. And while he was in Star Street, the only strange thing he did was to treat Bloodline Wizards differently in teaching. So, Mister Black Earl, perhaps these two incidents are related? "
Angor was just going through the whole thing. From his point of view, these two incidents might be related, but at most, it was a weak connection.
Black Earl nodded. "Angor is right. I'm not just guessing. I did a 'correlation divination' between Eckstedt and the Pure-Blooded Society. "
"The result is interesting. It's neither 'yes' nor 'no'."
"Usually, the result of a divination is either 'yes' or 'no'. Either the result is blurred by anti-prophecies, or the divination simply fails. But this time, my divination was successful without any interference from anti-prophecies. But the result is neither 'yes' nor 'no'. "
"In other words, it's' yes' and 'no' at the same time."
"Everyone has their own opinions on how to interpret the result. But there's no denying that Eckstedt and the Pure-Blooded Society are connected in some way. Maybe it's a hidden connection, or maybe it's a direct one. Otherwise, the result would not be so vague. "
Both Dorcas and Angor were confused about the two sides of the result. But Black Earl was right. This meant that Eckstedt and the Pure-Blooded Society must be connected in some way.
"If it's a divination, then it makes sense," Dorcas said.
Angor considered for a moment and said, "Even if there's a connection, it doesn't justify Eckstedt's attack on Billon Tree Garden. As a matter of fact, Eckstedt did not participate in the attack. He even saved people."
"I never said that he had a reason to attack Billon Tree Garden," Black Earl said casually.
"If it's not him, then …" Angor suddenly thought of something. "Wait, sir, are you saying that the attack on Billon Tree Garden was planned long ago, and the Pure-Blooded Society was only a secondary reason? Maybe Eckstedt did not realize it himself?"
Indeed, Black Earl did not say that Eckstedt had a reason to attack Billon Tree Garden. Instead, he said that Eckstedt was the main reason for Witch Stop and Witch Sharon to attack Billon Tree Garden.
If that was the case, Eckstedt's likes and dislikes became an "unofficial but hidden" criterion for Witch Stop and Witch Sharon's attack on Billon Tree Garden.
Eckstedt treated Bloodline Apprentices differently. So, when Stop controlled the Shallow Sea Strongman past the guild area, he changed his mind and attacked Shark Planet Pure-Blooded Society?
"Yes, that's what I think," Black Earl said.
"It's hard to control people's thoughts, so they often have unpredictable characteristics. So, from a behavior point of view, it makes sense. But I still can't find the common ground on a logical level. "
"Sometimes, logic doesn't matter. What matters is what you think at the moment," Black Earl said.
Black Earl paused and changed the topic. "But if you really want to talk about the logic of the attackers, I can say two things. First, Stop and Witch Sharon must know that Eckstedt doesn't like Bloodline Apprentices."
Angor nodded. Judging from the motive, this was the inevitable result. He had also analyzed this point, but it didn't seem to be logical.
The Dark Earl did not explain. Instead, he continued, "Secondly, Witch Stoops and Witch Sharon also have a tendency to dislike certain bloodline supernatural individuals."
Angor was surprised to hear the second point.
It would make sense if Witch Stop and Witch Sharon also hated certain types of bloodline adepts.
They might not do something for Eckstedt, but they would definitely do something for their own likes and dislikes.
Therefore, if they all hated a certain type of bloodline superhuman, then it was highly possible that Stopp had controlled the shallow water strongmen to destroy the Shark Planet Pure Blood Society.
But … where was the evidence?
Why would Black Earl think that Stop and Witch Sharon hated Bloodline Apprentices?
Eckstedt clearly treated Bloodline Apprentices differently in his teaching, but Stop and Witch Sharon did not show any similar signs.
"Evidence? I don't have any. " "However, although I don't have any evidence, don't forget that apart from Stop and the others, there's another person who can't be ignored among the attackers this time."
"Shallow Sea Strongman," Angor said quickly.
Black Earl nodded. "Yes, Shallow Sea Strongman. Wizard-level Shallow Sea Strongmen are almost impossible to find in the southern wizardry region. Also, the Shallow Sea Strongman has obvious runes and the corrosive aura of the world's consciousness, which means something. "
"The Shallow Sea Strongman came from another world."
The Dark Earl said, "Yes, this is a wizard-level shallow water strongman from another world. In addition, there was another Strongman who showed up on an island. Just like the Shallow Sea Strongman, it also had the aura of another world. "
"Stop also summoned a monster with a crocodile head. This monster is the guardian monster of the Reed Garden. "
"Reed Garden?" Angor was confused.
"There's a wild god in the Wildlands World called the God of Yalu. He's the God of Reed Garden, or the god who manages Fertile Land. As for the Reed Garden, it is the residence of this wild god. "
"The guardian of Reed Garden is a Crocodile Monster who has mastered the power of justice and order."
Angor hesitated. "So the monster Stop summoned is a subordinate of the wild god? Is this something that can be confirmed? "
"Stop admitted it himself," Black Earl said in a flat tone.
Angor was a little surprised. If Stop admitted it himself, then it was probably true. Angor never thought that a wild god from the Wildlands World would be involved in this.
Angor did consider one possibility before. Maybe this attack was caused by an otherworldly overlord invading the wizardry world.
But that was just a random thought. Angor did not expect to find a connection with an otherworldly deity.
However, this was not the only thing that shocked Angor. Black Earl continued, "Shallow Sea Strongmen and Island Strongmen are all strongmen. Strongmen can be found all over the universe, but most of them were brought there by wizards. The real birthplace of strongmen is the Wildlands World.
"There's a rumor in the Wildlands World that the God of Reed Garden, or the God of Yalu, created the first strongmen."
Another God of Yalu?
Not only did the Crocodile Monsters come from the God of Yalu, but the strongmen were also related to the God of Yalu. Angor could not say that the attackers had nothing to do with a wild god from the Wildlands World.
"So, we can be sure that the Shallow Sea Strongmen and Island Strongmen also came from the Wildlands World, just like the Crocodile Monsters."
Black Earl suddenly chuckled. "There's another interesting news. I received some information about the members of the Shark Planet Pureblood Guild from the Bilos Family. Ninety percent of the apprentices have the bloodline of the Savage World's demonic creatures. "
"And in the past month, the Guild District has held four Bloodline Seminars. Among them, the first three were led by the Shark Planet Pureblood Union, and the bloodlines that led the discussion were all the bloodlines of the monsters of the Savage World. Only the fourth seminar was taken over by the Alchemy Bureau, and the main discussion was the development of the mermaid bloodline. "
Black Earl stopped talking. He did not give any comments, but his words all conveyed the same meaning.
Wasn't this a coincidence?
Dorcas slowly spoke up, "Pureblood Guild? Is it a gathering of pureblood wizards? You're right. Pureblood wizards love the bloodlines of the Wildlands World. Most of the Bloodline Wizards in the Wildlands World are pureblood wizards. I don't have the blood of monsters from the Wildlands World right now, but the next time I change my bloodline, I'll probably go to the Wildlands World. "
Regardless of whether it was the Black Earl's words or Dorcas's addition, they had actually unveiled a curtain to the truth.
Stop and the others had an unknown connection with the Wildlands World. Since they could bring the Reed Garden's guardian monster with them, they might be on the Wildlands World's side.
Even if they were humans, it did not mean that all humans had to stand on the side of the wizarding world.
Humans stayed in various worlds and even spread their branches. Some of them were born in the Wildlands World, so it was normal that they did not feel a sense of belonging to the wizarding world. Some of them were lured by wild gods and became the vanguard of a counterattack against the wizarding world.
No matter what, the wizarding world did not lack such traitors.
If Stop and the others really were traitors, and they had deep feelings for the Wildlands World, then their hatred toward the Pureblood Guild was not without reason.
After all, the "Floating Capital" built by humans stood high above the clouds of the Wildlands World. Bloodline wizards came here in droves, and the Wildlands World was called their "back garden".
Most of them were pureblood wizards.
Now that Angor thought about it, it was understandable that people from the Wildlands World hated pureblood wizards.
Now he understood why Black Earl thought that the three attackers all hated certain bloodline supernaturals.
This was a basic point of logic.
From this point of logic, Angor now had a reasonable explanation for the destruction of the Pureblood Guild and Eckstedt's strange behavior.
Angor still had some doubts, but he was convinced by Black Earl.
