Angor waited until the sun was about to set.
Moreover, as they waited, even more people came to the signal tower, which was enough to show how popular the signal tower was.
There was also a small interlude in between.
Some people who didn't follow the rules tried to cut the line.
Angor thought he could enjoy a good show, but before he could bully the weak, he was stopped by his peers.
Angor didn't know why at first. But he learned from other people's conversations that the Bilos Family was keeping an eye on the signal tower.
As long as someone caused trouble in the signal tower, such as fighting, cutting in line, destroying public property, and so on, the people of the Bilos family would immediately intervene and expel the troublemakers and their companions for the crime of "violating the rules", and they would no longer be allowed to use the signal tower.
In the past, the Bilos Family wouldn't be so strict, nor would they care about the internal affairs of the signal tower.
But now, things were different.
The Bilos Family was not stupid. They knew that many of the people using the signal tower were trying to contact the forces behind them to get a share of the loot while the Bilos Family was weak.
According to their agreement with Floating Mech City, they would not stop others from using the signal tower.
However, if someone "caused trouble" in the signal tower, they could reasonably expel the troublemakers and stop them from using the signal tower.
And no one from Floating Mech City would say anything even if they told the Bilos Family about this.
Therefore, the inside of the signal tower was now very safe. People were lining up in an orderly manner, and no one dared to do anything unnecessary.
After all, in the eyes of these people, the Bi Luo Clan was now in a state of being a lone wolf that had lost its pack. It was the period of crazily biting in all directions. They wanted a share of the profits, but they absolutely didn't want to be ruthlessly bitten off a piece of meat by a lone wolf that had gone to a dead end.
They obeyed the rules now so that they could get more benefits later.
Angor could tell that the Bilos Family was in a bad situation. They were surrounded by enemies.
"Will the Billos Family lose power because of this, and be unable to recover from this setback?" At this moment, after understanding the situation of the Billos Family, Olao asked curiously.
"No." Angor shook his head.
Olao: "Why? Aren't they surrounded by wolves now? "
"It is surrounded by wolves, but the wolves only attack animals on the ground at most. They can't do anything to the golden eagle that is not on the same track."
Olao didn't understand what he meant.
Angor did not explain right away. Their conversation had already attracted other people's attention.
Many people looked at Angor curiously.
They wouldn't care if it was just a small fry talking. But Angor was a wizard, and he didn't hide his aura at all. Even if he had changed his appearance and no one could recognize him, the judgment of an official Magus was still more important than that of others.
Olao seemed to have noticed the gazes of the people around him and did not continue asking.
Moreover, at this moment, the door in front of them opened. Someone had finished using the signal tower and was preparing to leave. According to the order, it was finally their turn to enter.
The other people in the hall all looked disappointed. They thought they were going to hear some secrets.
However, not many people believed Angor's words.
After all, Angor did not provide any evidence. Besides, wizards were the type who wouldn't act until they saw an opportunity. They wouldn't turn back until they hit the wall themselves.
After leaving the noisy hall, Angor and Olao walked to the inner corridor of the signal tower.
There were two rooms in the corridor. One of them was equipped with a communication device, while the other was a monitoring room. An apprentice from Floating Mech City was in charge of the monitoring room.
He could monitor the situation in the room in real time through the machine in the monitoring room.
Of course, he wasn't monitoring other people's conversations. Instead, he was monitoring the equipment inside the room.
Once someone broke the equipment, the monitoring room would receive an alert and send out the message. This was to prevent people from intentionally sabotaging the equipment.
Angor took Olao to the communication room.
The inside of the room was simple. There were no machines in sight. There was only a power source that could store large amounts of magic crystals and a digital input port.
Once a magic crystal was inserted and the corresponding transmission button was pressed, one would be able to contact the signal tower of a major organization.
Different signal towers would require different amounts of magic crystals.
For example, if one wanted to contact a signal tower in an affiliated world, the initial cost would be 500 magic crystals, and the connection would last for five minutes. After that, the cost would be 100 crystals for each minute.
Since an affiliated world was in a different plane from the main world, the price would naturally be higher.
If the signal tower was located in the main world, the cost would be much lower.
Angor was currently contacting a signal tower in Floating Mech City, which only cost 30 magic crystals. The connection would also last for five minutes. After that, he would have to pay 6 crystals for each minute.
The price was much lower, but it still cost a lot of money.
Angor knew that once the signal tower was installed, it would only cost three magic crystals to power it up. Even if it was an affiliated world, it would only cost 50 to 100 crystals.
Even if the organizations in the middle wanted to take a cut, it was still quite expensive.
After activating the communicator, he undid the transformation spell and returned to his original appearance.
As the communicator was activated, a screen appeared in front of them. The screen flickered for a few seconds before a woman wearing the uniform of Floating Mech City appeared on it.
It was the "operator" of Floating Mech City.
The operator's pupils changed when she saw Angor. However, she quickly calmed down and asked Angor who he wanted to transfer to in a respectful manner.
Angor didn't go to Portia right away. Instead, he asked the operator to contact "Potion Maker" Mithra.
He wanted to see if Mithra could help him with Keely's matter. Also, he wanted to ask Mithra about Portia's attitude. He had a general idea, and it would be better to contact Portia first.
However, it was impossible for him to contact Mithra directly. Even if Angor showed his true face, it could still be a fake. There had to be a verification process, and it had to be done by … Antonio.
Soon, a white shadow appeared on the screen. Angor couldn't see the face clearly. He could only vaguely make out the shape of a human.
It was Antonio, the guardian of the City of Floating Mech.
"Mister Padt?"
Angor nodded. "It's me. Long time no see."
Antonio still couldn't confirm Angor's identity. "Mister Padt, do you still remember the number of Amoeba Larvae, White-Cheeked Realm Fiend's and Black-Cheeked Realm Fiend's eyes in the warehouse?"
Angor didn't hesitate. "The last time I checked, there were 0 Amoeba Larvae left. They cost 25 points."
"The White-Cheeked Realm Fiend's eyes cost 30 points. There were three left. I got one, and now there are two left.
As for the Black-Cheeked Realm Fiend's eyes … I don't know. I don't think I saw them in the warehouse. "
"It's been a while, Mister Padt." Antonio placed a hand on his chest and bowed to Angor.
Angor had passed Antonio's test.
Angor bowed back.
Antonio's figure was much clearer than before. He still couldn't see his face, but Angor could see that he was wearing a standard tuxedo. This meant that Antonio entered the signal tower in his true form, which was a sign of respect for Angor.
"Mister Padt, are you looking for a Master Alchemist? I can contact him for you now. "
Angor nodded. "Yes. I need to talk to Master Mithra and Witch Portia. However, Witch Portia can wait. I would like to have a chat with Master Mithra first. "
Antonio did not ask any more questions. He nodded and contacted Mithra through his Divine Will.
Knowing that Angor wanted to talk to him, Mithra quickly flew to the signal tower without hesitation.
While Mithra was on his way, Angor chatted with Antonio for a while.
Most of their talk was about the current situation in the research department, such as whether Mister Muse had come out of his seclusion.
Antonio didn't try to hide anything from Angor.
It wasn't long before Antonio sensed Mithra approaching the signal tower. When he was about to leave, Angor stopped him. "It's fine. Let's listen together. I want to know your opinion as well."
Antonio didn't know what Angor wanted to ask, but as the exclusive "customer service" for R&D members, he nodded and stayed in the signal tower.
On the other side, Mithra also entered the signal tower. When he saw Angor on the other side of the screen, his first reaction was not to greet him. Instead, he asked out of curiosity, "Hey, your destination is … Biren Tree Court."
"Why did you go to Billon Tree Garden? Did Mister Rein send you there? "
Angor smiled and shook his head. "No, I'm just here to do something, Mister Mithra. You seem surprised. Is there something wrong with me being in Billon Tree Garden?"
Mithra shook his head. "Nothing. But didn't you hear about the recent night attack at Billon Tree Garden?"
Angor nodded. "I know. I was there."
Mithra didn't know what to say.
Angor looked at Mithra again. "The attack shouldn't have anything to do with Floating Mech City, right? Why are you so surprised?"
"Not really. But all the magazines in the city have been spreading rumors about the incident. I think someone is trying to stir it up."
"Stir it up? Is Floating Mech City trying to get a piece of the action too? "
Mithra shook his head. "I'm sure that's not what Mister Lawson is thinking. But you know, Floating Mech City has a lot of vassal forces, and they want to use this chance to cause trouble. Also, I heard that the Bilos Clan destroyed the Sky Tower registration office in Billon Tree Garden. That's why they're doing this."
"Yes, the Sky Tower registration office was destroyed. But it wasn't done by the Bilos Clan. It was done by the attackers."
"I know about that. But it's not a problem for those who are trying to stir up public opinion. If they can turn the living into the dead, they can do the same. "
Mithra couldn't help but sigh. "It's good that Floating Mech City has more magazines. But too much information can cause a lot of trouble in the future."
Angor chuckled. "Things will change."
Everything would change once the dream wasteland came online.
However, Mithra didn't know what happened in the dream wasteland, so he thought Angor was just trying to comfort him. "It's too hard to change things."
Mithra paused for a moment. "Never mind. There's nothing to talk about. I just want to remind you that Billon Tree Garden is in the eye of the storm. Be careful there."
"Don't worry, I know. But I don't think it's the eye of the storm. "
Mithra looked at Angor curiously. "Oh? From what you said, you seem to know some insider information? "
Angor didn't answer right away. Instead, he glanced at Olao. "My friend asked me how to deal with the Bilos Clan."
"My answer is that the Bilos Clan will suffer a great loss. But not everyone can do it. Besides, the Bilos Clan won't fall apart because of this. "
"Why?" Mithra asked.
"Because the Bilos family has found a new backer."
"The Dark Earl."
Mithra didn't know about this. "I heard that the Dark Earl's main body left the Noah Clan not long ago."
Angor nodded. "That's right. The Dark Earl's main body is in Billon Tree Garden."
As for how the Bilos Family managed to gain Count Dark's support, Mithra didn't ask. In Mithra's opinion, it was normal for Angor to know about Count Dark since Count Dark was a close friend of Rein. But Mithra didn't think Angor knew about Count Dark's plans, so it was pointless to ask.
Mithra: "So, the Black Earl is in the Biron Tree Garden … That's interesting. Is he planning to get involved in the three-way war?"
Mithra didn't think the Dark Earl was interested in Billon Tree Garden. The Dark Earl must have something else up his sleeve. And that something was going on in Goman Kingdom, which was currently in chaos.
As one of the strongest wizards in the southern wizardry region, the Dark Earl was only one step away from becoming a legendary wizard. Goman King's action might be the key to his breakthrough. Since Mister Monkey was keeping an eye on the situation, the Dark Earl was likely to get involved as well.
Angor knew how the Dark Earl felt about the Goman Kingdom. If it was before, the Dark Earl might be interested in the Goman King's action. But now, the Dark Earl was no longer interested.
After all, even Augustine, who seemed to be a miracle, had clearly told the Black Earl that his legend began in the Origin World.
Of course, the Dark Earl wouldn't be interested in the chaos in Goman Kingdom.
However, Angor wasn't going to tell anyone about this. Angor didn't say anything to Mithra's question.
Mithra didn't mind. He was just mumbling to himself and didn't expect Angor to answer.
