In Floor No.95 of the Tiless Tower, a few figures hidden behind cloaks stood on top of a large teleportation circle.
At this mont, one of the figures in the center, who was around four ters tall and burly built, started to mutter a chant, and the next mont, an hourglass mark suddenly shimred under his hood.
A hoarse voice rang, "Constant Baron-5 is requesting permission to enter floor 100th of the Tiless Tower with Constant Baron-9 and 8 Noble Assassins."
There were teleportation halls on each floor, which were connected to different locations of the tiless city. Because of its peculiar location, a Constant could only enter or exit the Tiless City through the teleportation hall.
This way, every entry or exit was closely monitored by the Tiless Hourglass, the central system of the Tiless City. Only one person was ever able to bypass all of this, and that was Jacob.
Once the Constant Baron-5 made his request, a static voice rang within the teleportation hall, "Permission granted."
The next mont, the teleportation circle flashed, and the ten cloaked figures vanished without any trace.
On floor no.1 of the Tiless Tower, they reappeared within another teleportation hall, which was exactly the sa as the one they had just used. The only difference was that another person was waiting for them.
This person was 3.4 ters tall with a slender fra. He was wearing a long violet robe, and his face was hidden behind a black mask. The only visible features were his long, crimson hair cascading down behind his back and a pair of glowing crimson eyes.
His hands were covered with claw-like black gloves, and he held a strange black book without any title or markings.
The burly Constant Baron-5 and the petite Constant Baron-9 quickly ca forward and respectfully greeted the man, "Sir Constant Baron-1!"
On the other hand, the Noble Assassins remained rooted in their place like statues, without any excessive movents. There wasn’t even a sign of life in them, and the Constant Barons didn’t seem to mind them at all.
Constant Baron-1 nodded in acknowledgnt before he spoke in his mild voice, "Sir-5, Miss-9, you both worked hard."
Both Constant Barons quickly shook their heads as if they dared not take Constant Baron-1’s praise.
"We only follow your plan."
"She’s right, everything has been ticulously planned by Sir Constant Baron-1."
Constant Baron-1 chuckled as if he didn’t mind their attitude. He even sounded pleased, "Without both of you, I won’t be able to reach this point so fast. But don’t worry—the hard part is over, and now, it’s ti to claim the fruit of our labor."
Constant Baron-5 and 9 were in shock when they heard this. They knew too well what Constant Baron-1 was hinting at, and they’ve been working for this goal all this ti.
"Alright, let’s not delay this any longer. You know what you need to do, right? There is no room for errors." Constant Baron-1’s voice turns serious.
"Don’t worry, we have already set the trap, and knowing ’her,’ she’ll definitely bite." Constant Baron-5 confidently stated.
Constant Baron- 9 also sneered coldly, "Indeed, she’s desperate to keep her spot. But she’s only being stubborn. It’s ti to put her to ’sleep’ so she can beco clear-headed again!"
Constant Baron-1 nodded in agreent, "It’s indeed about ti. Let’s not delay anymore, or those Secret Fraternity’s eccentrics might suspect sothing. Please proceed."
The next mont, Constant Baron-1 suddenly flipped open the black-covered book in his hand. Crimson pages flickered one after another before they suddenly stopped at a certain point, revealing a crimson page with unknown runic writing.
Constant Baron-1’s crimson eyes shimred as a ghastly aura released from his body, and the runes on the crimson page suddenly ca alive and jumped out of the page before starting to take shape.
Within a few seconds, those runic words suddenly turn into a humanoid figure with the sa stature as Constant Baron-1. And it didn’t stop there; the humanoid started to take on the sa features of Constant Baron-1, turning into his exact copy.
Now, both of them standing beside each other looked exactly the sa, and even their auras felt identical. The only difference was that the black book in the real Constant Baron-1’s hand didn’t get duplicated.
The ’new’ Constant Baron-1 moved forward and entered the teleportation circle with the others without saying anything.
The real Constant Baron-1 issued a command, "Constant Baron-1 is requesting permission to exit the Tiless City for Constant Baron-5, Constant Baron-9, and 8 Noble Assassins. They have my permission to leave my floor."
Thereupon, a familiar emotionless voice rang, "Permission granted!" The next mont, everyone vanished from the teleportation hall with a flash.
Once everyone was gone, a peculiar glint flashed past Constant Baron-1’s crimson eyes, and the next mont, he placed his finger on the forehead of his mask and pulled back!
A small ethereal hourglass with a golden-bronze fra filled with starry black sand appeared. Grabbing the golden-bronze frad hourglass with both hands, he muttered, "I request a tiless eting with Golden Constant-100,000!"
After a mont, a static voice rang in Constant Baron-1’s head: "Golden Constant-100,000 has accepted the tiless eting with Constant Baron-1!"
Within the tiless space, both Golden Constant-100,000 and Constant Baron-1 appeared in their ’constant forms.’
Constant Baron-1: "Plan is in motion. How’s your preparations coming along?"
Golden Constant-100,000: "Everything is set. I’ll contact her, and she’ll leave the city."
Constant Baron-1: "Good. Rember, there is no room for error. We might not get another chance like this again. I hope this plan of yours works for both of our sakes."
Golden Constant-100,000: "Haha, worry not, Senior. We serve the sa master, and since I was put in charge of this operation by the ’Master’, I don’t dare to ss up."
Constant Baron-1: "Good to hear it. As long as I beco the next ’0’, you’ll have a chance to enter the Constant Baron rankings."
Golden Constant-100,000: "Of course, of course, I’ll never doubt your promise, senior!"
Constant Baron-1: "Constant eting concluded!"
