Dodge woke up feeling a little groggy in his head.

It was his familiar bed, home in Atlantia.

Getting up and pulling back the curtains, he found that it was already noon.

As if forgetting something important, Dodge shook his head, then opened the door and called for the servant.

Last night he remembered that after he came down from the Nautilus, he became very sleepy for some reason, and fell asleep not long after returning home, and he didn't even have time to find a few beautiful women to relax.

He had to see his uncle today, and Dodge thought about what he had told him to do while changing his clothes with the help of the maid.

Gaia's feedback to himself did not show any new clues, and in two days he would organize an expedition into the Endless Abyss, and if he could not solve the puzzle left by Grimm Noelle by that time, then he would have to wait a month, and by that time, there might be something else going on.

Soon, Dodge put on a delicate dress, and when the maid was leaving, he also pinched the young maid's buttocks, making the **** girl blush and run away.

"Come, prepare the ship, let's go to the governor's palace. ”

The consuls of Atlantia were also profanes, a continuation of a long life at sea, and this palatial mansion in the Whale District of northern Atlantia offers a glimpse of the mist-filled abyss.

As soon as he stepped into the Governor's Palace, Dodge saw a burly man approaching him.

This is William, the commander of the Atlantean Guard, the peak level of Black Iron, and a general under Magni.

"So you're the one Mistress Magni is going to meet later?"

He snorted coldly and glanced at Dodge.

In William's eyes, Dodge is a parasite, relying on nepotism to have today's status, compared with people like him who rely on strength to work hard, it is simply a scum-like existence.

But because of Master Magni's attitude, William could only use a little sarcasm in words.

"Lord William, it's been a great job. ”

Dodge didn't care about William's attitude, anyway, this guy couldn't hurt himself at all, and if he had the opportunity in the future, he would just find another opportunity to give him color.

The priority now is the task given to him by Uncle Magni.

Dodge passed William, walked straight to the room at the end of the hallway, and after reporting his identity, he asked the servant to open the door.

It was a room that could be described as luxurious.

The floor is a sleek marble, cleaner than the usual mirrors, reflecting the elaborate paintings on the ceiling, the surrounding walls are covered with memorabilia from various sea beasts, and the door is directly opposite, and behind the desk is an open window that can directly see the endless whirlpool of the abyss in the distance.

And the most powerful man in Atlantia, Governor Magni, sat at his desk, holding a dossier in his hand, he was bloated, his white beard was neatly trimmed, his hair had long since fallen out, and his little blue eyes were reading the text on the dossier casually.

"Uncle. ”

Dodge made a salute, although he was arrogant, but after all, he also knew that the reason why he could do whatever he wanted was all due to this uncle, so he did his best to please him.

"You're back. ”

Master Magni glanced at Dodge, not taking his eyes off the file.

"I heard you ran into a monster when you came back?"

"It's the North Sea Monster, uncle, but nothing major incidentally, thanks to my uncle's fleet. ”

Knowing that it was actually the Templar troops who saved the Nautilus, Dodge forced a compliment on Magni and raised an eyebrow.

"Recently, there have been a lot of monsters in the offshore area, and I don't know if it's the thing. ”

Magni slowly lowered the dossier, which contained reports of a particular monster that had been found around Atlantia in the last month.

"Just this month, there have been more than twenty sightings, and there are even monsters of the level of the North Sea Monster, Dodge, you have to be careful. ”

"I will, uncle. ”

Dodge nodded, knowing what his uncle meant, and spoke.

"About that...... Unfortunately, no valuable information was found from the little girl of the Noelle family. ”

"Yes. ”

Magni seems to have foreseen such an outcome, and has not said much.

"Tomorrow, the expedition team will enter the Endless Abyss, as a fixed item of the Full Tide Festival, I have sent someone to check it in, and when the time comes, you tie that girl from the Noelle family into it, and see if she can recall something under the Endless Abyss. ”

Kidnapping an ordinary person directly into the endless abyss is tantamount to killing people directly, but in Magni's mouth, such a thing is understated, like talking about dessert for afternoon tea.

This is the power of being in power, which makes Dodge feel a little frightened.

"I understand, uncle. ”

Dodge nodded, then said with some concern.

"The news has been released, I feel that many other forces have come to this city, and they want to take advantage of the full tide festival to make trouble, uncle, do you need to find ......?"

"You don't have to worry. ”

Before Dodge could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Magni, and the Archon spoke in an unquestioning tone.

"I've paid Kant and Georg to help, and they'll get the job done. ”

Dodge's eyes widened at McGony's words.

Kant and Georg are similar to Sartre before, they are also famous mercenaries in Atlantia, and their strength is even higher than Sartre, and they can almost glimpse the barriers of the law.

"Hehe, I invite the two of them at the price of a noble title, they have been crisscrossing the sea all their lives, and they must also think about their descendants, and at the same time, being able to get in touch with that must be of great help to the improvement of strength. ”

With a sneer, Magni explained.

"That's all right. ”

Dodge rubbed his palms, the strength of those two people was quite terrifying, and it was much stronger than the waste that was knocked down by someone with a punch, and he must have gained something.

"Also, I have a treasure here that can alleviate the load caused by the rise of the Endless Abyss to some extent. ”

Magni spoke again, looking meaningfully at Dodge.

"Dodger, it's just the two of them, I'm not worried, this time, you can go with you. ”

The same understatement tone, McGni's words made Dodge chuckle inwardly, and missed half a beat.
