"As for more information about the decay zone, I think investigators from various countries have also reported back news. I won't go into more details. I will just say that the possibility of the main plane's magic network completely collapsing is something we cannot sit idly by."

King Hellion spoke eloquently, from the destruction of the magic network in ancient wars to the [Magic Limit Treaty] after the establishment of the Northern Alliance. In short, it can be summed up in one sentence -

The most dangerous moment of the Magic Network has arrived, and the northern countries must unite to fight to protect the Magic Network!

"This time, we can't take any chances. We must completely wipe out the Illuminati at all costs. Otherwise, who knows what they will do next time!"

All the heads of state who had confirmed the existence of the decay field expressed their support for Hellion's proposal. The few who had not confirmed the news also voted in favor after seeing this situation.

After all, whether the decay field exists or not, there is no doubt that the Illuminati will be attacked.

As for whether or not to do so at any cost, that still depends on the enforcement strength of each country. The alliance has not said that it must force a country to do anything, it is all voluntary.

As a result, this alliance meeting went surprisingly smoothly, and all countries quickly reached an agreement to reorganize the super-magic event monitoring center set up by the alliance based on the magic limit treaty into the [Magic Network Disaster Defense and Management Center].

This operation against the Illuminati and the subsequent repair of the decay field will be carried out within the framework of the newly established Magic Network Disaster Defense and Governance Center.

……

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, Shado received the news of the establishment of the Demonic Disaster Prevention Center at Elan's temporary camp, as well as the news that various countries were determined to deal with the Illuminati issue.

Almost within a very short period of time after the Demonic Disaster Prevention Center was established, groups of capable personnel arrived in Evereska from various countries and successfully joined the new department.

At the same time, the alliance intelligence department also provided the new department with intelligence support with almost full authority, except for merging offices.

In Elan, just moments after Shado received the relevant news, observers from various countries in the camp also received the news and began to change their roles to become real investigators.

At the same time, more reinforcements have arrived in Elam, or are on their way to Elam.

Probably the only thing that has not changed is the task of blocking these destruction sites, which is still the responsibility of the Yerlan garrison.

It seems that even though all countries have reached an agreement to wipe out the Illuminati at all costs, Eerlan still has not made any concessions on Elan's interests.

And due to the establishment of a new department of the Alliance, the Demonic Disaster Prevention Center, according to the agreement, all the investigation data of the decay field in Elan by Netheril will be handed over to the new department.

Of course, this is more of a transfer on paper. These investigators from Netheril will also join the Alliance's Magical Disaster Prevention Center at the same time. It has not been asked whether Iolum will join Shado yet, but it seems that even if he does not join, he can continue to participate in this matter as a consultant.

"Advisor Xia Duo, the Alliance is preparing to conduct another small- to medium-scale sacrifice experiment. Do you want to participate?"

Philipa's news made Shado suddenly lose interest in staying in the tent to analyze the data related to the self-healing of the decay field. On the one hand, the offices were about to be merged, and with the addition of new experiments, it would not be too late to analyze the data after the information from all parties was integrated.

On the other hand, of course, it was God's grace that attracted him. Previously, through Ye Erlan's experiments and the student assignments he brought from the Tower of Time, he had only obtained the amount of God's grace required for three patent applications.

This was still far from the number he wanted.

So even though he has proven through experiments that student homework is the most efficient way to obtain God's grace, he is unwilling to give up any opportunity to obtain additional God's grace.

Since the person in charge of the temporary camp here is Philip, even if the Demonic Disaster Prevention Center comes in to take over, Philip still retains a high degree of say. It's just a change of title.

Of course, the same goes for Xia Duo.

Philipa knew that he was interested in Divine Grace, so when the Alliance was about to conduct the experiment, he quickly contacted him without making any requests.

"I'll be there soon!"

……

As soon as he walked out of the tent, Xia Duo saw that some Alliance mages were expanding the camp, and it seemed that they were preparing to turn it into a long-term workstation. He took a detour and observed around and confirmed his guess.

Then, he came to the vicinity of Filifa's tent, next to a building that had already taken shape. In addition to Filifa and other elves, Shado also saw a number of human wizards, including Doom, the head of the Alliance's intelligence department.

Shado greeted Filifa from a distance, and then approached Doom, "The message you just sent was a bit vague. Who is in charge of the Demonic Disaster Prevention Center now?"

"We haven't reached an agreement yet. It is currently being managed directly by representatives from various countries. Ambassador Tirion and other representatives from various countries will also be present for the sacrificial experiment."

Hearing such an answer, Xia Duo couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. Fortunately, the alliance does not have too many affairs at present, especially now that they have to concentrate their efforts on dealing with the Illuminati. It is not a good choice to have representatives from various countries directly responsible.

But at the same time, he thought of a question, "Now representatives of various countries know the situation here? Who else knows it? How to ensure that the situation here is not known by the Illuminati?"

"Yes, representatives of all countries know about it. It is indeed difficult to bypass them in this situation. Should we let the heads of state of each country handle the various trivial matters here personally? As for the scope of those who are aware of it——"

At this point, Doom subconsciously lowered his voice a little, "For now, only consultants, second-level supervisors, and a few fifth-level clerks know the specific situation here.

“Don’t be fooled by the sudden increase in the number of people here. In fact, they don’t know the truth. They only know that they are here to participate in a demonic disaster investigation.

“Even in the specific work, various information is graded and isolated to ensure that the situation here will not be known by the Illuminati.

"Of course, it's unrealistic to expect to keep it a secret forever. We are now racing against time to completely eliminate the Illuminati before they think of using the decay field to threaten the Alliance."

No wonder the Demonic Disaster Prevention and Control Center was just established and even the internal personnel arrangements have not been completely handled, but they are preparing to carry out a new round of sacrificial experiments.

This experiment is probably not just to verify the data previously provided by Yerlan and Naesriel, but also to find the perfect way to repair the magic network.

Otherwise, are we really going to leave permanent scars in these seven places?

"Are there any new clues about the Illuminati now?" Xia Duo asked again.

"Not yet, but the Elan side provided a piece of intelligence, saying that they suspect that the Illuminati in Elan are using the void warehouse to smuggle, and their intentions are unclear. We plan to start from this aspect."

At this point, Doom showed a hesitant expression, he looked at Shado and hesitated. (End of this chapter)
