I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means Chapter 119: 118: Signs of Chaos

Chapter 119: Chapter 118: Signs of Chaos

This was Lis’s understanding from his previous life as a top-level player.

As long as the reward was right, it was easy to get players to do anything!

“Alright, leave it to .”

Mora agreed promptly, with no special requests—just arranging soone to be responsible was sufficient.

Each profession has its own expertise!

If Lis had to arrange these matters himself, it might have been troubleso, but for Mora, it was his field of expertise, and with his connections and resources, it was easily handled.

...

“Oh, here’s so recent intelligence I picked up for you.”

Mora seed to suddenly rember sothing and took a stack of intelligence reports out of his storage ring and placed them in front of Lis.

It was sothing Lis had previously asked Mora to collect, and he had kept it in mind all along.

Lis quickly flipped through it, but this ti his focus wasn’t on the prices of goods but rather on so comprehensive intelligence and rumors about the Feis Kingdom and Bright City.

As Lis was browsing the information, Mora intentionally said,

“A few days ago, the manager from the Radiant United Comrce ca. He wanted to increase their investnt in our guild.”

“Oh? And how did you respond?”

Lis replied. He and Mora had already discussed this matter.

“I definitely refused, because I know just how much potential our guild has for growth. There’s no way I’d let them get additional shares.”

Mora said with a laugh; these were matters that they had already agreed upon.

“But it’s strange, even though I refused their request to increase the investnt, that manager insisted on increasing the investnt by fifty thousand gold coins, and he didn’t want any shares—really strange.”

“If he’s giving it, just take it. Are you afraid of having too much money?”

Lis gave Mora a sideways glance and said nonchalantly.

“But it’s fifty thousand gold coins. I don’t feel secure not knowing the reason.”

Mora said with a giggly tone, sounding a bit peculiar.

“Just say what you want to ask, why does it feel so awkward.”

Lis said without even looking up, seemingly more captivated by the intelligence on the docunts.

“I heard you were taken as a disciple by Lord Judgent Fla, is that true?”

Mora leaned in close to Lis and asked softly.

“Hmm.”

Lis responded indifferently, as if it was no big deal to him.

“You’re aweso, brother! That’s a Legendary Strongman!”

“Now who dares to bully us? I knew Duke Hade wouldn’t just send us fifty thousand gold coins out of nowhere; it was because he respects your status.”

Mora was sowhat excited, and it almost seed like he was the one taken as a disciple by the Legendary Mage.

“It probably wasn’t Duke Hade’s idea. If he wanted to show goodwill, he wouldn’t have sent a manager, he would have sent Arsen to talk to .”

Lis thought for a mont and shared his guess.

“So… was it His Majesty the King?”

Mora spoke in a lowered voice.

“As long as you know, don’t spread it around.”

“Don’t talk about my becoming a disciple of the elder either. It’s not worth making this a widely known matter.”

Lis shook his head and said.

“I understand!”

Mora nodded, thinking Lis was worried the elder might not like it being public.

Lis continued to browse through the intelligence, and suddenly, he noticed a piece of information that said:

Recently, there have been dozens of death cases in the West District of Bright City, with the perpetrator still uncaught.

The number of missing persons in Gedo Street, Langai Street, and Noah Street has been rising, and local gangs and other forces are investigating the cause.

The Dawn Church has dispatched personnel to patrol the West District frequently, which seems to have beco a routine.

…

Seeing these ssages, Lis furrowed his brows.

Chaos, had there already been signs this early?

If before the Sacrificial Festival, Bright City and even Feis Kingdom seed to be undercurrents in motion, yet on the surface, it was still peaceful and tranquil.

Then, after the assassination during the Sacrificial Festival, accompanied by Feis Kingdom declaring war on Boditch Kingdom, it was like lighting a keg of gunpowder in the years that followed. All sorts of monstrous and supernatural beings erged.

Evil God believers, evil creatures, dark creatures, demons, devils, divine calamities…

All sorts of anomalies appeared on the Fanor Continent, and a series of major events also comnced.

It was a chaotic era, but while chaos brought pain, it also ca with precious opportunities.

Countless ordinary people died in the warfare and turmoil, but at the sa ti, many strong figures rose from blood and fire.

It was a disaster for the civilians, but a golden age for the strong.

During that ti, even in Bright City, the capital of Feis Kingdom where the kingdom’s power was strongest, many schers had their eyes on this place.

However, before the players appeared, Bright City should not have caused any major disturbances, right?

Lis recalled, not quite sure.

Mora looked at Lis as if he was deep in thought, leaned over to see, and said,

“This area, the West District, is indeed quite chaotic, but the East District here is alright, with a bit more security force.”

Indeed, after all, most of the city guard’s strength is usually concentrated in the East District to protect the safety of nobles and wealthy rchants.

After all, the leaders of the guards are among them.

As for the civilians, it doesn’t matter much if a few die.

This is also why those Evil God believers could successfully cause trouble in Bright City.

“Speaking of which, last night there was a violent incident in Golden Lily Lane that injured quite a few people, but it was suppressed.”

“It’s said that both parties involved used blood magic, and several vampire corpses were left at the scene.”

“The vampires involved seed to have Gold Level strength, which is strange. Are they infighting?”

Mora was curious, as the situation didn’t seem to make sense.

Golden Lily Lane?

Lis found it sowhat familiar and after recalling a bit, he rembered it was a place in the West District of Bright City, often frequented by rcenaries.

However, finding vampires in Bright City was not an uncommon occurrence; these creatures relied on consuming human blood to survive and often hid in human cities.

And because they could disguise their appearance to look similar to humans, even though they were constantly pursued and eradicated by the Dawn Church among other True God Churches, they were difficult to completely eliminate.

Thinking of this, Lis glanced at Angela, who was sleeping on a couch not far away.

This creature… really a vampire?

The longer he spent with her, the more Lis found that Angela was very different from the vampire creatures he had fought against in his previous life.

Those creatures emanated craziness, licentiousness, bloodthirst, and disorder, typical of dark creatures.

That kind of evil chaos was extrely repulsive.

But Angela was different, whether it was the blood energy or the dark aura on her body, both were exceptionally pure and flawless.

There was even a pleasant scent that Lis had personally verified.

But no matter how much Lis tried to recall, he couldn’t rember encountering a vampire like her in his previous life.

There was definitely a secret to Angela!

However, Lis wasn’t worried because…

She was just a lazy little white bat that loved to eat and sleep.

The only thing comndable was that she was quite competent as a bodyguard.

Thinking this, Lis stood up.

He didn’t plan on continuing his studies and research today; he had other plans.

He was going to visit Old Jack.
