"Please follow the order. ”

Overhead, the sound of the World Tree echoed in the sky above everyone like a morning bell.

"Now for an ad hoc meeting. In exceptional circumstances, due to the fact that Ivan Yafir, the Executor, was carrying a dangerous object with the magical aura of Sloth, I had to summon you immediately. ”

The World Tree apparently also noticed that the members of the Core Council had not arrived, and she paused.

"Devin Blair, the Dark Magister in charge of the investigation, is absent. ”

"He's probably in the institute. A middle-aged man with a dry voice replied, sitting in a gray chair.

"Lord Esmerdra didn't come either, so you don't have to call her for the impromptu meeting all the time, she's old. Didn't Hernos go to arrest the wizard? it doesn't matter if these two men are absent?" another strange man in a red coat snorted. Standing on the platform, Ivan couldn't see the faces of the adults clearly, only seeing black and fiery red flashes around him.

"There are always people absent from ad hoc meetings, and that's something that can't be helped. On another chair not far from him, the stern-voiced man seemed to be dressed in metallic clothes, and his chair seemed to be in a complex shape, like the silhouette of a city, with flames swinging on it.

"The problem is that Blair isn't there, he's the one in charge of the mission, what's he doing. Then she spoke a lady sitting in an aqua blue chair, her voice low and her tone seemed to be a little helpless.

"Not that I said, that guy is really lazy—" The man in the red coat shifted and leaned out towards the lady.

"Rune, stop me!" a dignified old man immediately ordered, "An item with the magical aura of Sloth, what is that?"

The World Tree patiently left them some time for discussion, and did not interrupt them, her expressionless face at this time was more like an unrelated passer-by than the presiding officer of the impromptu meeting, just a simple bystander. Once again, the emblems of Ivan and Carlo appeared in the air. At the same time, the sound of the World Tree echoed throughout the space.

"Ivan Yafir, the Executor, and Karlo Plante, the Executor, carrying the core of the Seventh Demon Sloth, ask to testify for the Holy Magister of the Crystal, Laxis Flotica. ”

"Sorry, I'm late. ”

Before the World Tree could speak, a short shadow suddenly appeared in front of a black, translucent high-backed chair, as if it had jumped out of the air. Artel Hernos panted and clutched his knees. Towards the World Tree and the adults around him, he looked up blankly, "What happened? Did the wizard in the prison escape?"

"You should know it's impossible. The lady turned her head and glanced at him, "Didn't you go to catch the wizard?"

"Well, I'll talk about that later!"

Artel saw the two men on the platform, and he seemed to be stunned for a few seconds, and sat down a little awkwardly. At this moment, the majestic old man turned his head to look at Artel.

"Ivan Yafir, the executor, and Karel Plante, the executor. Carry the core of the seventh demon Sloth, and ask to testify for the crystal holy magister Laxis Flotica. The World Tree repeated what it had just said, "Now, please stop the discussion. ”

She turned to Ivan and Carlo.

"What is your testimony?"

"Mistress Laxis Flotica is not in collusion with Sloth, honorable ladies and gentlemen. Carlo's serious tone was very much in line with the atmosphere here, he hadn't even moved a moment now, like a wooden man. At this time, he was the first to speak.

Ivan's heart shuddered, and the cold-water tension gathered around him in an instant, and suddenly, he realized clearly where he was standing.

This is the meeting room of the Caucus.

The plan was disrupted, and he had to solve the trouble for Laxises on his own, otherwise, it would definitely be not only him and Laxis who would suffer.

Carlo was no longer out of the way.

"Yafil can testify that Lord Flotica has been hunting Sloth all along. The core of Sloth is in his hands. Carlo said, glancing at Ivan lightly.

Ivan thought the adults would start talking again, but there was silence around them. He took a deep breath and subconsciously looked at the World Tree, unconsciously moving his gaze to Laxis.

"So, you found it?" said Luxis's tone in an unexpectedly soft tone. Suddenly, all the adults in the chairs around them turned their eyes to Laxis.

"Hmm. In my place. Laxis's response gave Ivan a little courage, he took out the small metal box, glanced in the direction of Yatel, and opened the box directly. A series of ice-blue runes suddenly appeared above the box, as if they were embodied magical aura.

"The aura of magic in the core is exactly the same as that of the seventh demon general, Sloth. The World Tree said, reaching out to Ivan and taking the box. The box vanished in an instant, and Ivan noticed that the string of ice-blue runes appeared in front of the old man sitting in a white chair.

"W-where did you get this?" said the white-robed old man in a stern tone.

"I found it at the bottom of the sea, my lord. Ivan replied quickly, glancing at Yatel again. The environment of the chamber made it difficult for him to see what Artel's expression was, but he noticed that the rune had reappeared in front of another adult, as if the World Tree had teleported the box to them.

"Mistress Laxis killed Sloth, but she left in such a hurry that she didn't take the core with her, and Mistress Laxis told me not to tell me about it. ”

"Oh, it seems that you are well aware of Flotica's actions. The adult in the metallic clothes said in an indifferent tone, "Vlotica, what exactly are you trying to hide?"

"Mistress Laxis is trying to protect me. Ivan's fingers trembled slightly, but he immediately clenched his fingers so hard that his nails stinged the flesh of his palm.

Xiulin was right, it was a gamble, he thought, Xiulin believed that Laxis would protect him and would never give up on him, and he wanted to believe that.

"Because, there was a little accident in the hunt for Sloss, Sloss fled to her ice boat, and my assistant and I were forced to get involved in the fight - we were only helping Lord Laxis to monitor the surroundings. I, I don't know how much you adults know about the situation, it was an empty sea, and no one was helping us. Ivan said as he stared at Laxis, hoping that Laxis would understand what he meant—he had no intention of betraying the inhabitants of the Ghost Islands, "We were swept away by an iceship that sank into the sea, and I fell unconscious in the battle, and Lord Laxis rescued me.
