"Beginning with the relationship between the whole earth and sky, we will start to construct our understanding!"
Aiming at the corpses lying on the ground, Ronald Adler cast [Precession].
He was cautious and did not cast the spell, which could only take effect once, on all three people, but instead chose only two of them.
"..."
The two casters lying on the ground began to breathe again, and their eyes slowly opened.
They glanced around, their eyes filled with confusion. Just twenty minutes ago, they were following their team approaching Noela's house, and the subsequent battle had not even begun.
Now the scene before their eyes suddenly turned into such a strange situation.
No wonder they couldn't react imdiately.
Clang——
At this mont, Ronald grasped the Sword of Saint Catherine with one hand.
He struck with a speed almost no one could see, a powerful slash from top to bottom, instantly piercing the person who had been resurrected.
"Ahh——"
The agent whose body was pierced imdiately scread in agony.
He struggled desperately but could hardly move at all—because Ronald's magic power suppressed all his actions.
Swoosh——
Ronald withdrew the longsword, and magic power was imdiately infused into the pitch-black blade.
He activated the Heart-Control effect of the Sword of Saint Catherine, targeting it at the uninjured person beside him.
"..."
"Alright, let's start by talking about the current state of your organization."
While wrapping the cloth back around the sword's blade, Ronald also began inquiring for information.
The agent on the ground wasn't a holder of any originals, lacking any resistance, he imdiately began to speak under the control of the Sword of Saint Catherine:
"After the organization was destroyed, efforts began to contact hidden agents, and reorganization started on the eastern shores of the Sinking Sun Ocean; however, a few months ago, a ssage ca from the Entrode headquarters, informing us that the nation we served had been overthrown."
"After so discussions, the fourth leader decided to reorganize once more, gradually transforming us into a more covert mysterious-side faction."
The agent's account was brief but explained the situation clearly.
After suffering severe setbacks, the Entrode spy organization reorganized, and later, under the leaders' directives, it underwent restructuring.
Ronald pondered for a few seconds, then asked again:
"Your search for Heloyise, is it solely for the original she possesses?"
The agent controlled by the Sword of Saint Catherine imdiately admitted:
"That's right, that's exactly it."
"Our organization currently possesses only one original. And the fourth believes—in the current global landscape, one original is far from sufficient to support the organization's developnt and growth, so based on prior intelligence, efforts began to recover any possible originals."
Ronald continued questioning:
"What have you done regarding Heloyise, and what are the specific details?"
The agent, having completely lost autonomy, continued to speak:
"We learned that Heloyise was following the refugee team of [Grid], arriving at [Runi Kingdom] several months ago and hiding there. We were responsible for gathering information in [Tang Chom]. As for details—according to ssages from colleagues in other countries, Ronald Adler has reappeared and is stronger than before."
"So the leader's order was to do whatever it takes to hurry up and retrieve the original before the two et, and clean up traces of our activities and presence."
"..."
Ronald raised an eyebrow.
For him, the information provided by the agent was a mix of good and bad news.
The bad news was that this group indeed had their eyes on Heloyise, and their moves were clearly ill-intentioned. Under the temptation of the original, these casters, who lost their loyalty to the nation, posed a much greater threat than ordinary individuals.
Even though Heloyise herself was from among these agents.
But given the situation, she faced no small danger as well.
The good news, however, was that Ronald appeared just in ti.
Before the remaining agents could capture Heloyise, he not only arrived at [Tang Chom] first but also directly thwarted the agents' key action to find Heloyise!
Now, he was in possession of the information, while the enemy remained completely unaware.
The advantage brought by this information gap was indisputable.
"..."
Reflecting on these matters, Ronald finally looked at the agent kneeling before him.
At the end of this interrogation, he asked one question out of curiosity:
"Did you also alter your body and appearance?"
"Yes, I did." The controlled forr agent nodded and promptly lifted the spell.
So, before everyone's eyes.
This seemingly ordinary man transford, his body beca delicate and soft, and his originally decent looks resurfaced.
Just like Heloyise, this was also a young girl.
Although disguised as a man for operations, when it ca to absorbing and training agents, the Entrode organization often favored won who were better suited for carrying out specialized tasks.
Slightly shaking his head, Ronald knocked the person unconscious. He had no further interest in tornting them and simply tossed these two individuals to the nearby cult sorcerers.
As for what the cult sorcerers might do with them…
Such matters were not within Ronald's scope of consideration.
After dealing with the agents and watching them leave, Ronald turned to the information broker standing obediently on the spot;
"Mr. Noela, we are preparing to continue our search for Heloyise. Would you like to accompany us?"
"I'm aware of my own limits." Upon hearing Ronald's query, Noela replied with a bitter smile, shaking his head, "What I should do now is change my appearance and find a place to hide."
"To keep moving around openly would be too dangerous."
Ronald fully understood Noela's cautious stance. Given his identity and past habits, such a decision was quite reasonable.
Therefore, Ronald didn't force the information broker into anything.
He nodded to show his understanding, then after explaining his previous encounter, he asked the broker:
"In that case, please tell any information about Heloyise."
Without any hesitation, the information broker Noela nodded and explained to Ronald:
"After parting ways in [Tang Chom], Miss Heloyise, under the alias Luo An, traveled with others to the capital of [Runi Kingdom]. You should find this na on Mr. Bach's list."
As he reached this point, Noela paused.
He cautiously looked around, ensuring no one was eavesdropping, then stepped closer to Ronald and said:
"However, even the na Luo An is in the past."
"For safety reasons, Miss Heloyise has changed her identity again, and this was entrusted to to handle for her..."
