"I previously had the summoned creatures track the mbers of the Xu Family. They went to the new hiding place and are closely watching the target. If anything happens, it will return by itself. It hasn’t co back, which ans everything is normal, and your clan mbers are fine."
Lu Xun asked, "If you want the address now, I can call it back."
He didn’t know where Er Lengzi had run off to.
But as a summoned creature of the necromancer, the Little Evil Spirit requires the soul power provided by Lu Xun to remain in this world, so it can’t go too far.
As long as Lu Xun cuts off the "supply," it will automatically return to the Netherworld.
Then he could summon it again for questioning.
"You’re a mage?" Wei’Er was sowhat surprised.
In the Human Federation, although there are many immigrants from other races, mages are rarely seen. Most of the foreign races that can immigrate to the Federation are just ordinary laborers, and few awaken racial talents.
...This is certainly for social stability.
If the streets were filled with powerful mages, it wouldn’t be conducive to social security managent.
Elental magic also includes many summoning types, such as "Earth Spirit Summoning Techniques."
She thought Lu Xun was just an ordinary elental mage... After all, necromancers are too rare, and most people wouldn’t think in that direction.
"If that’s the case, then there’s no need to call it back for now." Wei’Er thought for a mont and said to Lu Xun, "Let it continue watching, let make so arrangents first, and we will act around 10:30 tonight. Then you can tell us the address... Thank you."
"Alright." Lu Xun nodded.
He understood what she ant.
Er Lengzi had a hard ti infiltrating, and once called back, it’s not easy to penetrate again.
The action wouldn’t start until the night, and if anything changes in the anti, it could be troubleso, like the elves being urgently relocated or the enemy suddenly moving on to drug production...
So Er Lengzi needs to continue watching, and once Wei’Er has her manpower ready, it can return to report the situation.
"Let’s exchange contact information."
Lu Xun took out the communication device—not his own, but the one given by Zhang Xinghai.
Wei’Er also revealed her communication device, added the contact, and noted "Friend."
Since this mysterious person was unwilling to reveal their identity, she didn’t need to ask for their na.
In interpersonal interactions, respect is the foundation of trust!
"By the way, how much do you know about those bastards involved in capturing and selling elves? Do you have more intelligence?"
Wei’Er suddenly looked up, her voice pleasant, "If you have more information, please be sure to give it to us. We’ll settle the paynt with you tonight."
The Elf Race doesn’t make false promises. If it said "there will be generous rewards," it definitely won’t speak without aning it. The promised rewards must be given.
"Nope~"
Lu Xun spread his hands and shook his head, "I only know that the Xu Family just coincidentally encountered the elf sellers and then coincidentally heard about people selling vampires."
That’s really coincidental...
Did everything really happen to the Xu Family?
Wei’Er couldn’t help but frown.
Actually, it’s quite obvious that these two groups of traffickers might be the sa people.
Because to produce a super-effective Elixir of Immortality, both elves and vampires are needed. Elves are okay to capture if you’re bold enough; grabbing a few isn’t hard.
But vampires are too rare.
Just selling elves doesn’t have much demand, only so daring LSP custors would place an order.
"It seems you know more than I do." Lu Xun, observing Wei’Er, chuckled softly, "I really can’t help you with that, I have no more intel."
"That’s okay, you’ve already helped us a lot."
Wei’Er stated seriously,
"This case isn’t as simple as it seems; it’s not rely an elf smuggling case."
"Hmm?"
"Since you’ve given us important intel, I’ll share so secrets known only to the higher-ups." She turned serious, whispering "...this case might be a precursor to war."
"Hmm... huh?!"
It took Lu Xun half a second to react, and he was stunned.
A precursor to war?
It’s just a smuggling case, why does it involve war?
...Recently, the price of Black Gold has been rising, could sothing big indeed be happening?
Can’t be, right?
Despite remaining calm on the surface, his mind began to race.
While he was in deep thought, Wei’Er continued,
"This is the seventh elf smuggling case within the Federation this year... I’m not the only one investigating it, and the cases didn’t just happen in Jinghai City.
But there’s sothing very peculiar, do you know what it is?"
"Peculiar?" Lu Xun frowned, signaling her to continue.
"The leads we obtained weren’t discovered by ourselves, but were consistently provided to the embassy by a mysterious individual.
Including this Jinghai City case, soone anonymously sent photos of the abducted elves to the embassy, and on the back of the photos, there’s just two words—Jinghai. ... So I was sent to investigate."
"Isn’t that a good thing?"
"That’s why I say it’s not simple." Wei’Er pursed her lips, saying gravely, "The people selling elves and vampires and those providing intel might be from the sa organization."
What?
Upon hearing this, Lu Xun imdiately frowned.
What is this, a provocation?
Capturing and selling elves are unforgivable capital offenses.
If you’re going to do business in secret, silently making money, why would you report yourself?
...Wait, they’re not reporting themselves.
They are backstabbing the buyers right after delivering!
But there’s no profit in that, it’s purely despicable behavior.
