Arcane Lord

No matter what the legend says, what is certain now is that the giant platform where the city-state of Evereska is located is indeed made of stone, which is consistent with the material of the surrounding mountains.

In other words, the space that can be imagined under Evereska is very large!

It is entirely possible that the Illuminati built a secret base under Evereska, and even with the help of the earth element environment deep underground, it can completely shield Evereska from monitoring.

In general, no one will develop a special exploration spell in the field of earth elements. Even if there is some development, this overly single-natured exploration method is very easy to be blocked or misled.

It is far inferior to the most popular perception amplification + projection type exploration spell developed based on the perception of elves or humans in the main plane. It’s just that this kind of exploration spell is most suitable for places where elves or humans can move.

The underground is not the domain of intelligent races, especially the completely solid rock formations. Even dwarves will sigh and cannot go deep into it, let alone move.

Probably only those elemental creatures can thrive in such an environment!

Before, Shado had never thought that the Illuminati might build a secret base under Everiska. In the past, he might have overestimated the elves and Everiska.

Of course, even now, he did not discover the Illuminati's secret base through direct detection means, but discovered it from the pre-transmission path that was most likely exposed by the other party.

So why did the other party make such a move that would expose the secret base to him?

Is it because there are big fish inside the Rus Chamber of Commerce and several other targets, and the value of the big fish is much higher than a secret base?

Or is it because the situation has developed to the point where the Illuminati does not care about these at all?

As for the possibility that the Illuminati thinks that the secret base will not be traced by the Alliance, Shado completely ignored it. He did not believe that the Illuminati, who is capable of designing such a pre-transmission method, would not be aware of the disadvantages of this method.

It can be said that the only advantage of pre-transmission is that it is almost impossible to stop and intercept, and the rest are all disadvantages.

If it is an organization that operates openly, then of course those disadvantages can be ignored, but for an organization that needs to hide, pre-transmission, a method with obvious disadvantages, seems not worth it.

But the Illuminati used it, and used it in front of Shado.

Regardless of the real reason why the Illuminati used this method, Shado's attention was indeed drawn to the secret base located underground in Everiska.

Thinking of this, Shado's face darkened slightly, and he looked at Brad on the side, "There is something I want to ask you to ask the Elders Council of your country."

"What is it?" Brad was not clear about Shado's discovery at this time. He was still happy that the field team's operation was smooth, but he didn't know that what was caught below was just some worthless shrimps, and the real big fish was still hidden underground!

"I want to ask, does your elder council intend to build Everiska into a floating city?"

"Build Everiska into a floating city?"

Even though Brad was well prepared, he didn't expect that Shado's thoughts would jump so much. He was clearly carrying out a capture operation, so why did he suddenly think of building a floating city!

"I will convey it to consultant Shado."

"No, time is running out, you report to the higher-ups now! In addition, if you don't want to build a floating city, do you mind lowering the city's height?"

??????55.??????

"Lower the city's height?" Brad seemed to understand, but he couldn't think of the key point, so he simply passed it to the elder council truthfully and let the elders judge for themselves.

...

Soon, almost at the same time that Brad agreed to the summons, Shado received Larian's inquiry, "Has Consultant Shado found any clues that will cause great turmoil in Evereska?"

"Yes, there are some."

Shado told Larian about his findings and put forward his own conjecture, "I think the Illuminati may launch an action against Evereska in the near future or even today, perhaps just like before in Elan, except that they attacked the magic weapon factory before, and now they are attacking the entire city!"

If it is just an attack as powerful as that of a magic weapon factory, it is far from enough to destroy Evereska, but you have to know that the magic weapon factory has only been attacked once.

It is entirely possible that the Illuminati will launch multiple attacks on Evereska at the same time, which is equivalent to throwing the seven magic network decay areas in Elan to Evereska at the same time.

Whether the Illuminati is capable of launching such an attack again, neither Shado nor Larian can ignore such a situation.

Now, when Larian heard that the Illuminati might target Evereska next, he was so frightened that he could hardly express it in words. He asked quickly:

"Advisor Shado, is this news accurate? Do you need to confirm it again?"

"It's too late. You must make a decision immediately. Do you want to save Evereska? If necessary, I can help you!"

On the other side, Larian had already arrived at the Cloudtop Tower, and all the other elders had also arrived. He synchronized the communication process between himself and Shado to all the elders, but none of them expected that it was time to make a decision now.

When the other elders were silent, the supreme elder Devin took the lead and set the tone: "Whether the news is true or false, we cannot refuse the good intentions of consultant Shado."

Yes, it concerns the fate of a city and a country. Who dares and who can bear the responsibility of refusing!

But they also know that once they agree to Shado, they may fall into another trap, but the situation has made it impossible for them to hesitate.

Soon, Shado received a message from Larian, and also said that Elder Devin wanted to meet him. Shado provided the temporary coordinates of the half-plane villa garden, and the next moment an old elf with a worried look appeared in the garden.

"Elder Devin?" Doom and Maglor were surprised by Devin's sudden arrival, while Brad was thoughtful and worried.

In front of Doom and Maglor, Shado showed Elder Devin the process of discovering the secret base of the Illuminati. The three intelligence directors, especially Brad from Everska, showed panic expressions.

Elder Devin, on the other hand, calmed down at this moment. He looked at Xia Duo, as if he wanted to see the truth from Xia Duo's expression and eyes, but unfortunately, Xia Duo said that there was no concealment or fraud, let alone conspiracy.

Finally, Devin stretched out a hand and handed a silver scepter to Xia Duo, and said: "I will leave the rest to Advisor Xia Duo."

"I will definitely not let the elder down!" Xia Duo took the scepter, with no joy or sadness in his heart, but only hatred for the Illuminati and great confidence in the next action.
