Able to lead Beranti's battle mage, Ogro was clearly capable enough, and as he began to explain his guesses, Ed realized that he would also be a very good mentor if he were willing to pass on everything he knew.

He didn't use any esoteric jargon or show them any complicated calculations, but instead drew simple lines on the ground that were connected in a few paragraphs.

"No matter how powerful, Scott Criess is only a human after all. "Not to mention Copas Fenton." I don't think they're able to create any spells that break a rule, it's likely that they've just found the building blocks that support it...... Or maybe even just one of the dots. ”

He clapped his hands gently, and on the ground, the point where the line he had drawn began, lit up a little light, and after a moment of flickering, it flowed like water along the line to another point.

"If there is more than one cornerstone of a circle, there must be some kind of connection with each other. Ogro said, "Sabotage...... Or change one of them, and the other will echo it, and if you can capture this echo, you can find the next one. And this connection ......"

He clapped his hands again, and the tiny point of light flickered rapidly, and the scattered light shot at every point where the lines met, and from each point again, crisscrossing into a complex web.

"It may or may not be one-way. "In other words, at this point, Scott may only know the next cornerstone...... The location of the next god bone may already be known. ”

Borena grabbed her beard and subconsciously felt that something was wrong The night that the light of the Sidney Temple was lit, Nigel had already appeared at Black Castle and brought Ethan a warning about Balach.

But Ethan didn't speak, Nigel stared at the ground in a daze, and even the high priest looked thoughtful, as if he felt that the mage's guess was quite reasonable.

What else could he do but remain silent?

"So," Iss sneered, "are you going to protect those 'materials' now?"

"It's just ...... A guess. Ogro said lightly.

"Whether it's to protect or to destroy," Laval began, "first of all, we'll have to find them before Scott." ”

"That's not impossible. "All the magic is there...... I'll figure out what the hell they're doing here, and if I'm not strong enough to do that, in my current form, it might be necessary to ask for help from the Mentor Tower. ”

Laval looked at Croeffler according to the old agreement, which required the approval of him and the Lord of Balach...... After all, they didn't want Balach to become a city controlled by mages, like Neo.

“...... Welcome. Kroefler's tone was flat, and the smile on his lips was elusive.

"We also need to understand what really happened at the Sidney Temple. Ogro continued calmly, "But I'm afraid it's hard for strangers to get close to that place?"

"My people don't know much magic. Croefler spread his hands and did not deny that he was in the Temple of Sidney...... Among the followers of Nesses, there are also eyes and ears of their own.

"You can leave this to me. Laval lowered his eyes and said no more.

"If possible," Ogro nodded to Ed, "I'd like to get ...... Mistress Singh's help. ”

Ed looked at him a little dazedly, not quite sure how he could help.

"You are the nephew of Scott Criesers. Ogro said bluntly, "And I've heard of the bloodline of the Chrysers...... There are some peculiarities. You may be able to make it easier than we do...... Find your way to your next goal. ”

Ed was silent for a moment. He hated being turned into some kind of tool because of his "bloodline" that he couldn't change...... But he also realized that in the current situation, it would be difficult for him to say no. After all, it seems that everyone is working for the "common good" that Laval called it.

"He can't stay. Isis flatly refused.

“...... Ed needs to get back to Stamboch. Before the atmosphere froze, Alan duly explained, "It's not just Anktan's business, he needs to go back and warn the ruler of Rutgar and get as much help as possible...... The Queen Mother trusted him very much. ”

"That's really necessary. Laval nodded in agreement, "We need any help we can." Ordinary people may not know about magic or the gods, but obviously, Scott can't do everything completely on his own if he starts to get closer to his next goal, a follower of Nesses...... His followers will inevitably take action, and with more eyes, more possibilities. ”

"I know what you're worried about. "But rest assured, Ed is Felicity's chosen successor, and Ise ...... Even if the purpose is different, even if he doesn't care about the rules, he still wants to stop Scott, I can swear by everything I have. ”

"And me. Ed whispered.

Meeting his gaze, Iss could only nod silently.

Ogro bowed slightly, no longer speaking, and there was no expression on his lowered face.

And so the matter was settled. Isis stood aside coldly, watching them discuss the details, but he only felt ridiculous.

These people seem to be open and honest enough to reach some kind of agreement, but in fact they still have their own agendas. This long and boring "negotiation" did not come up with anything meaningful at all, except for the bones of the gods. And the bones of the gods...... It seemed to him more like a few delicious meat bones that had been deliberately thrown out, leading to a pack of salivating dogs. Hidden in it may be the power of the gods, and even the power of the serpent will covet the human race, how can it be possible to let go of such a treasure.

What if the rules set by the gods are broken, even if most people lose their freedom and even their lives?

Sooner or later, they will bite each other to death for this. Even those who have no intention of fighting, such as Allen, are wearing masks tightly at the moment, maintaining just the right amount of calmness and enthusiasm.

Iss often ignores this, but he has always been able to see through such hypocrisy easily. That made him scornful and hateful...... But there is an indescribable irritability.

Ed stood quietly beside him, not saying a few words from beginning to end, but looking more tired than anyone else.

He hated it all the same, but he couldn't stay out of it and watch it coldly like Is...... He was one of them after all.
