"You mean, the one on the Sky City?"
Hearing this, the man in black robe sitting second on the right answered.
"possible."
The gray-robed prophet nodded, neither denying nor confirming.
"I feel that the probability of him taking action in this matter is very small, but it does not rule out that Zhenzhi Society paid a price that was enough to make him tempted."
At this time, the shadow of the man in black robe in the second seat on the left shook his head, not very optimistic about this hypothesis.
"So, Gray Mist, what do you think?"
The man in black robe at the head of the right side of the long table spoke at this time, looking at the only real person present, but the voice was a somewhat neutral female voice.
"I can't guess his thoughts. After all, he is the only ninth-level prophet in the mainland. I don't know what he saw, and I can't determine the reasons and patterns of his actions."
The prophet known as Gray Mist shook his head and did not express any opinion on this.
"Like those strangers?"
The third man in black robe on the right asked. As he spoke, his dark face turned slightly, and he glanced at the man in black robe at the end on the left as if unintentionally.
Others also glanced at him more or less. The latter was keenly aware of everyone's gaze, but did not say anything. He just touched his chest with one hand and gave a slight greeting to everyone.
"More or less, An Abyss, I think you can understand it this way."
In response to his question, Hui Wu nodded casually.
"In the eyes of many people, the behavioral style of the prophet may be elusive. But in fact, it is just due to seeing things that are far different."
"It's like an ordinary person suddenly learns that his house will be struck by lightning and catch fire tonight. Then he will immediately move his belongings outside the house.
His neighbors didn't know about this. When they saw this man moving indoor items outside in a panic, they would think that he was crazy or possessed by witchcraft. "
“They would not regret it until that night, when lightning struck the house and flames burst into flames, but by then it was too late.
To us, 'he' is like the only one who knows the news, and we are his neighbors who know nothing. "
"Okay, Gray Mist, we understand what you mean."
At the head of the long table, the man in black robe with a dark golden emblem raised his hand gently, signaling everyone to quiet down.
Then, he looked at the man in black robe at the end on the left side of the long table, the focus of everyone's attention before.
"Zero, what do you think about this matter?"
Facing the invisible gazes of the leader and others, the black-robed man named 'Zero' did not show any signs of nervousness. He just crossed his fingers and spoke calmly.
"First of all, I must explain that I don't know much about high-level magic. Therefore, I will not analyze it from the perspective of magic."
“What I want to say is that you can actually think about it from another angle.
To achieve the effect of cracking the cover of Lord Gray Mist without leaving any traces of spells, it does not necessarily require profound prophetic magic, nor any other lost magic, but the existence of an internal ghost within our organization! "
Zero's words were like a depth bomb falling, causing everyone to burst into commotion.
It's not that no one has thought of this possibility. On the contrary, most of the people here have this idea in their minds, but no one has actually spoken it out.
"I know that there may be some high-level contracts in this world that can restrict betrayal, but I believe that you should also have ways to circumvent or lift the restrictions of these contracts."
Unlike others, Zero had no scruples about this, and even hinted, intentionally or unintentionally, that the mole might be among everyone.
"Of course, all this is just my personal speculation. The specific possibility depends on everyone's own judgment. But I suggest that you might as well conduct an internal investigation of our organization."
Although the word used was 'everyone', Zero's eyes were always looking in the direction of the leader.
He sees very clearly that as long as his existence is beneficial to the leader and does not offend everyone, then there will always be a place for him here.
As for other people who dislike him and even do evil things?
As a player who doesn't care about level, this is what he is least afraid of!
"This topic will be put aside for the time being. Whether it was the person who took action personally, or there was a mole, or the other party used special magic items, it is not a problem that can be solved by simple discussion."
After glancing at the reactions of everyone present, the leader remained calm.
"Xing, how about leaving the investigation of the mole to you? I will temporarily grant you special permissions to mobilize all resources of the organization without restriction."
"Okay, Your Excellency, Chief."
Hearing this, the figure of the man in black robe at the top on the right nodded.
"Grey Mist, can you think of a way to solve the problem of prophecy? We don't want to be able to stop that person from snooping, but at least we want to be able to detect and warn in time."
Then, the leader's gaze turned to Gray Mist.
“There are some new ideas, perhaps through the method of destiny grafting, adding a false mirror of destiny in the fog of interference. Even if it is breached, it can also serve as a disguise and early warning.
However, this spell is not yet mature and may require a period of development and research. "
The vague gray-robed prophet said calmly.
"good--"
The leader nodded.
"Then, before Gray Mist develops a new invisibility magic, could you please notify other members remotely that you should not gather in person for the time being to prevent sudden attacks from the enemy."
“Now, since Gray Fog has launched the summons in advance, there is another thing you need to know.
Due to the unexpected exposure of the Silver Wind City stronghold, the medium-sized nobles of the empire that we had contacted before had great suspicion and distrust of us. "
"The time for the Web of Destiny to change is almost here, and we need to get the Gloria Empire into chaos faster. Do you have any suggestions for this?"
As the leader finished speaking, everyone spoke one after another.
"How about continuing to support organizations such as the Secret Society of the Ascians and conducting indiscriminate attacks on cities throughout the empire? As long as we don't go to the empire in person, the ninth level of the True Knowledge Society will be unable to do anything to us."
"Perhaps we can control some of the minor nobles to attack the students of the Professional Academy and create panic."
…
"Guys, I have an idea."
After everyone gradually finished expressing their opinions, Zero suddenly spoke again, attracting everyone's attention.
"Have we not cooperated with the Secret Society of the Ascians before? I have also heard about their attacks on many large cities in the Gloria Empire recently."
"We might as well spread rumors among the people of the empire and say that the recent attacks are not attacks by the secret society of the Ascians as the official said, but a conspiracy by those high-ranking nobles!"
"They fabricated an organization that did not exist. In its name, they used the people at the bottom as sacrifices and experimental subjects to carry out all kinds of shameful and evil deeds, in order to incite conflicts between the upper and lower classes -"
Everyone has different opinions on his suggestion.
"What's the use of instigating a confrontation between the lower class and the upper class? Even if the lower class people gather in the entire city, wouldn't it be possible for high-level professionals to suppress them with just a wave of their hand?"
It was still the third black-robed man on the right, 'Dark Abyss', who spoke. He had long seen that even though he was only at the first level of strength, he was able to sneak into their meeting table and was displeased with Zero. However, he was unable to act out due to the pressure from the leader.
When he saw the opportunity, he directly criticized him.
