Chapter 97 Prelude to Chaos

"I can exchange it for information related to the spirit world."

In the end, Byrne decided to exchange knowledge of the spiritual world, and he was already thinking about the explanation after the incident.

"Yes, but probably not enough."

When faced with the newcomer "Mithril"'s statement, the president didn't think about it and just gave a calm answer.

Byrne nodded and continued: "If it is not enough to pay the price, I can continue to add more. If the others also want to know this information, each person will receive one hundred gold."

Obviously, for everyone, the price of only one hundred gold coins was not a problem at all, and soon Byrne received bank notes worth six hundred gold coins.

He discovered that the bank notes everyone took out were bank notes from Lorne Bank, which could be exchanged in basically any country without revealing their true identity.

Not knowing where they were from, the curious Byrne suddenly thought of something. Why was Viscount Best willing to share important things in the Poseidon Order for free?

Could it be that Viscount Best is trying to attract the participants of the Alchemy Council to the Poseidon Order?

It's like a premeditated fisherman deliberately dropping a bait.

He thought silently, put away the bank notes, and continued: "I got knowledge related to the spiritual world from a heretic."

Everyone heard that he had contact with heretics, but no one had any reaction. Byrne immediately understood that the bottom line of this group of people was not high in this regard.

The president suddenly interrupted him and said: "There is no need to tell the source of the information in the future."

Byrne nodded again to show that he understood.

He actually knew that there was no need to explain to others. The explanation he just gave was actually for Viscount Best.

"The spiritual world is divided into four circles, and the closer you get to the spiritual islands inside, the more real and huge the historical gaps they project."

"It is said that the innermost level of reality is almost no different from the real world."

"Moon River Stone" was the first to express doubts in a young voice: "There are actually four circles in the spiritual world? Are you sure what you said is correct?"

Everyone felt very surprised. In fact, they had all entered the spirit world, but so far they had not realized that there was a second circle.

"It's true, he didn't lie."

The president nodded, and the others were no longer confused.

Byrne had already guessed that the president had the mysterious power to judge lies, and now it seemed that he was indeed right.

And when he just mentioned "spiritual knowledge obtained from heretics," the so-called "heretics" actually referred to Irene, and he was not lying at all.

"Your price is enough."

After hearing this, Byrne put away the purple-red stone and could feel that the spiritual power contained in it was very unstable.

The president nodded, then very calmly stretched out a hand and waved it in the air.

"Disband."

The next moment, everything in front of everyone present changed, and everything seemed to be reconstructed.

When everyone disappeared, the president stared at a purple-red stone floating in the air, his eyes behind the mist flashing with strong desire and unwillingness.

He said to himself:

"Is there something wrong with the knowledge content given by the spiritual world, or is my production method wrong? Isn't it enough that the souls of 3,600 people are not enough?"

——

When Byrne came back to his senses, he found that he and Viscount Best were already standing in front of the floor-length mirror, and what he had just experienced seemed like a dream.

He couldn't help but ask: "Lord Best, can you tell me why you value me so much?"

Viscount Best took off his mask and said very calmly:

"You are very smart, Byrne. There is indeed a reason why I reuse you. As for the real reason, I can't reveal it now. You will know it later."

Although he felt very uneasy in his heart, Byrne could only accept Viscount Best's answer.

It was impossible for him to force the other party to tell the real reason, and after what had just happened, he could not refuse to be deeply bound to the Lion family.

All in all, he has some special value and can be reused by Viscount Best.

In fact, when Byrne thinks about it carefully, at least for the Fisher family, it is really good news!

Then Viscount Best took out a red box from the ring on his hand, which contained several jet-black crystal stones that exuded magic power.

"There are no barriers in Nasir Town, so it is difficult to resist attacks from outsiders. Just place them at the four corners of the town to form a basic protective barrier, which can help you increase your ability to resist foreign enemies."

"Okay, thank you Lord Best for taking care of me."

Now that Viscount Best has made it clear that he will be valued only if he has some value, Byrne can accept the gift with more peace of mind.

Byrne still couldn't help but ask a question that he had been thinking about for a long time. It was almost the most important question in the near future.

"Is it true that the Poseidon Order is about to start a war on the east coast?"

Hearing this question, Viscount Best had a sneer on his face, and the madness in his tone made Byrne's hair stand on end:

"Hey, the major churches under the gods are falling into divisions and civil strife. Naturally, those heretics have jumped out, and this is just the beginning."

"You have to know that the darkest and chaotic era is about to come. Before several major churches appeared in the world, the continent of Oden was basically a dark era full of killing and madness. Most people were fighting among the extraordinary ones. die."

"Now that there is no church and their constraints, many of the past orders will soon become meaningless, and all kinds of contradictions that have been suppressed for many years will completely break out. In the next few decades, death and chaos will be on this land. It continues to spread until despair makes everyone yearn for order again."

Best talked about an extremely terrifying future in an understatement, but Byrne trembled all over.

There was almost a turmoil deep in his heart. If Best's statement was true, then the next world would be full of strife and chaos!

The future was even more desperate than the most horrific scenario he could imagine!

If there had not been the restraint and mediation of the Redemption Church, the Rhea and Siyat people might have fought until the other side completely destroyed their country and their species!

What is the reason that leads to chaos and division in the church?

It was hard for him to imagine that possibility, but all circumstances seemed to point to the gods above.

There may be something wrong with them.

The middle-aged man suddenly stared at Byrne, and there was a terrible hint in his words:

"The church and the royal family have no time to take care of too many things. If you are smart enough, you might as well go a little too far in countering the Case family."

"I see."

Just when Byrne took a deep breath and planned to go back, Viscount Best said another important thing.

"By the way, whether there is news about the lost believers or clues about the diamond-shaped fragment, for the sake of your safety, you'd better inform me if you find anything."

"Yes, I understand, Lord Best."

Byrne pretended to answer sincerely but was very perfunctory on the inside.

It is of course absolutely impossible to find clues about the lost believers and report them to Best.

As for the diamond-shaped fragment, if the Fisher family had the ability to eat it alone, they would definitely eat it alone.

In fact, he was also very curious about what the diamond-shaped fragment that even the president wanted to get could be?

Will the Lost Lord need it too?

Byrne thought silently, if he sacrificed it to the great Lord of the Lost, perhaps the Fisher family would get more favors from the gods.

After Byrne, who was in a complicated mood, left, Best sat silently on the sofa alone. It was getting dark, and the man was deep in thought in the shadows.

He placed one hand gently on the coffee table next to him, tapping his fingers continuously.

The rhythm of percussion is powerful and getting faster and faster, revealing impatience and excitement!

"Finally waiting for you!"

——

To the west of Nasir Town, the estate of the Keyes family.

In the study, Baron Case, who was tall, slightly dark-skinned and with extremely three-dimensional facial features, was talking to his uncle.

Baron Case's uncle also has a pair of orange snake eyes, is also tall and has dark skin. The difference is that he is older, has gray temples and a softer face.

They are all second-level blood knights, possessing the blood of the "Black Stone Iron Dragon". In fact, they are still pure human beings, not dragon descendants among demi-humans.

The uncle of Baron Case, Os looked annoyed and said loudly: "You really went too far in that matter."

Baron Case was very calm and said indifferently: "Which thing? Do you mean that two of my men killed an ordinary person? Or are you talking about other things?"

Aos shook his head and said solemnly:

"Of course I'm not referring to the former. It's just a trivial matter. I know that the Fisher family made you lose face, so you took the initiative to reveal the information to the people of the heresy."

Baron Case nodded and said coldly: "That's true. The Fisher family will definitely pay the price."

Oss sighed and continued: "But if he is caught, it will probably be used as evidence for Fisher to report us. Then it will be very troublesome for the church to intervene."

Baron Case smiled, his snake-like eyes revealing coldness.

"He will not be caught. The news I revealed is that Fisher's head, Byrne, has left, and no one left in Nasir Town can stop him."

"Secondly, I disclosed the information through the secret organization Black Eyes, instead of telling him personally. The heretic had no idea about my situation."

"That's good."

Hearing that the information was revealed through "Black Eyes" and his identity was not revealed, Os finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, it doesn't matter if anything happens to the heretic, since the Case family can't be traced.

He thought for a moment and then said:

"You said that the head of Fischer's family has left Nasir Town. In this way, after the Poseidon Cult member leaves, no one in the town can defeat him, and there will probably be heavy casualties."

Aos was silent for a while and said hesitantly: "Did we go too far?"

However, Baron Case just shook his head and didn't care at all what his uncle said.

"Don't worry, Lord Viscount Garcia has told me that both the royal family and the church are in chaos now, and their control over the local area has been greatly weakened."

Baron Case smiled and continued: "We can go a little overboard with this!"
