My queen is rebelling!

(Thank you to the Hall Master "Little Leez Lee" for the 10,000 point reward!!! Thank you boss, the boss is generous, today I will add 10,000 words for the boss!!!)

The name in the male column is blank!

However, soon, the sharp-eyed Viktor discovered that it was not blank, but was obscured by a mysterious force.

After sensing it carefully, he found that even he couldn't see through this power!

Viktor is already a Saint, and even he can't see through the power...

Unless this is the work of a God!

Viktor couldn't help but feel horrified. Could it be that the man is related to a God?

That's right, only such a person is qualified to be worthy of the Emperor of the most powerful empire of mankind.

Viktor solemnly returned the scroll to Her Majesty the Empress, waiting for the latter's instructions.

Xanise said:

"His Excellency, the Archmage of the Holy Domain, is a well-known neutral party.

The Viktor family is also a prominent and respected ancient noble family in the empire.

Your words carry a lot of weight in the House of Nobles. I hope that when Chief Heisenberg proposes this motion, you can speak out from my perspective.

Of course, the marriage contract cannot be mentioned."

Viktor completely understood. He nodded and said:

"Your Majesty is too kind. This is my duty, and I know what to do."

At the end of the conversation, Xanise suddenly said:

"I don't care about that king, whether he has amnesia or is dead.

His queen, Adelle Angrain, must not have any accidents, understand?"

Viktor's eyes first showed confusion, but he quickly realized that this Queen Effiein in His Majesty's mouth was the woman who defeated His Majesty a few years ago and won the title of "Strongest Silver".

Is it a mutual appreciation between opponents?

That's understandable.

Viktor nodded and said:

"If Chief Heisenberg really wants to attack Effiein, I will protect this queen."

"Very good."

After Viktor retreated, Xanise spread out the marriage scroll, looking at the blank name of the man above.

The scene from that year emerged in her mind. Her father was seriously ill, and various domestic political forces were fighting openly and secretly. At the sensitive moment of the transfer of the imperial power, she was being chased and killed by unknown forces abroad—

At that time, Xanise Klein was just a young princess whose inheritance ranking was outside the top five.

Compared to her uncles and brothers, her only advantages were her outstanding appearance and amazing talent for cultivation.

In terms of real behind-the-scenes forces and political capital, the probability of ascending to the throne was very small.

As a result, those heirs fought to the death for the throne, making the country a mess.

This made the late emperor startled from his deathbed, thinking that he was not dead yet, and these brothers and unfilial sons had already begun to fight for the throne.

In a fit of rage, he simply decided to pass the throne to his most beloved little daughter, and secretly began various arrangements.

But after all, he was getting old, and many things were beyond his control. The news that he intended to pass the throne to his little daughter was quickly found out by those heirs who had eyes and ears everywhere.

Immediately afterwards, it was leaked by someone with ulterior motives, so Xanise was instantly subjected to secret pursuits from all sides.

At that time, Xanise was still traveling around the continent, and when she suddenly learned of this news, she didn't have time to respond at all.

She fell into endless pursuits.

When she was on the verge of despair, a powerful and mysterious woman suddenly appeared, solved all the pursuers for her, and safely escorted her to the Elven Royal Family who had a good relationship with Xanise's mother.

Before leaving, this mysterious woman gave Xanise this marriage contract:

"If you think I have done you a favor, sign your name in the female column of this marriage contract as a reward."

Xanise:

"What if I don't sign?"

The woman's voice was very calm, as if saving the future heir of the Central Empire was a very common thing:

"Then I'll just assume I saved the wrong person."

Xanise took the marriage contract and asked:

"He is my son.

As for his name and identity, you will naturally see it when the time is right!"

Xanise continued to say:

"If I can successfully return to the country this time, I will most likely become the Empress of the Central Empire.

As an emperor, my partner must also be a child of the gods, otherwise not only will the country not agree, but even the other four empires will object!"

The royal families of countries with more than a thousand years of history on the continent contain the bloodline of human gods to varying degrees.

These people are also called "Children of the Gods".

Back then, Cohen was able to subdue "Fear Demon" Akdimon with the "God and Demon Charter" because of his identity as a "Child of the Gods".

Xanise's question actually contained the meaning of testing the other party's true identity.

The mysterious woman's lips curled slightly, but she did not directly answer:

"What a smart little girl, I look forward to us becoming a family in the future!"

The memory came to an abrupt end. Xanise stroked the blank male name on the marriage contract, and arrogance appeared in her eyes:

"No matter what your mother's background is, no matter what your identity is, if you want to be the husband of the Empress of the Central Empire, you have to rely on your own ability!"

Xanise put away the marriage contract. The main reason she chose to tell Viktor about this today was to hope that he would speak for her on the subsequent House of Nobles motion.

As for the marriage contract itself, she didn't care much about it. Anyway, that woman didn't give her a deadline.

In a hundred or eighty years, if this mysterious man is just an ordinary person or a low-level extraordinary, then don't blame yourself for not fulfilling the marriage contract when he dies of old age.

Her main purpose today was still Windsor Adler's whereabouts.

She had already seen the intelligence sent back from the "Lost Land", and she had already suspected that the so-called "Elf Lady" was Windsor Adler.

Now that she heard Viktor say this, she was sure.

This made Xanise feel slightly annoyed.

Why did this woman run to the "Lost Land" without even saying hello!

She even became the wife of the leader of the "Endless Blade" adventure group?

Xanise almost didn't catch her breath in anger.

So many things in the country are still waiting for Windsor Adler to come back and help her. This woman is staying in the "Lost Land" to talk about love!

She quickly used secret means to activate a communication magic circle between the two and contacted Windsor Adler. She opened the door and asked directly:

"Where did you find this wild man? You've been single for more than a hundred years. Why are you suddenly in the mood for love and want to find a man?

When will you bring him back for me to see? I'll check him out for you!"

Windsor Adler instantly realized that her teacher had sold her out. She sighed and replied:

"Dear Majesty, please don't believe unfounded rumors. I am currently doing something important for the future of our elves.

Please don't urge me, Your Majesty. I will return to the country immediately after the matter here is over."

Hearing that it involved the elves, the resentment in Xanise's heart obviously dissipated a bit, and her voice also had a bit more solemnity, and she asked:

"Is it related to that 'Endless Blade' adventure group?"

Windsor Adler replied:

"Yes, to be precise, it's related to that leader. He has something on him that I must get, so I agreed to help him in the 'Lost Land'."

Xanise raised a hint of suspicion:

"Is it really that simple?

Does helping him require sacrificing your reputation?

Don't think that you can hide your identity by covering your face with a mask. A golden-ranked Winged Elf, and so young and beautiful.

How many are there in the entire continent?"

Windsor Adler replied somewhat guiltily:

"Alright, alright, I know what I'm doing. Anyway, it's only a few months.

Enough about me, Xanise, why are you so irritable, like you ate a blasting crystal?

Who made you angry again?"

Xanise finally seemed to have found an emotional outlet and poured out her grievances to her best friend:

"Who else could it be? That old man Heisenberg!

Relying on the merit of supporting me, he has begun to interfere with my marriage again.

If it weren't for the fact that my father trusted him so much and appointed him as a minister in charge, I would have kicked him out of the cabinet long ago.

It's really outrageous. Don't think I don't know what he's up to. Isn't he trying to push his nephew to me?

He's not worthy!"

Windsor Adler immediately became united against the enemy:

"It's that old, immoral bastard again. Why does that old geezer like to get involved in this kind of thing all day long!

It seems that this young lady didn't teach him a lesson last time when I burned down his office!

Those few ugly and useless nephews of his are embarrassed to show them off. Next time I see them, I will definitely teach them a good lesson for you.

A toad wants to eat swan meat, daring to covet the noble Empress, it's time to let them see who is the real master of the empire!"

After listening to her best friend's scolding, Xanice immediately felt a lot of the blockage in her chest clear up. She waved her hand and said:

"It's not that bad, after all, he is a meritorious and important minister, and also the Chief of the House of Nobles, so let's not be too excessive."

Windsor asked:

"Then how are you going to deal with them?"

Xanice said:

"I told your teacher about the engagement, and he will explain it for me when the time comes."

Windsor frowned and asked:

"The engagement that woman, who is afraid that her son won't find a wife, forced you to sign?"

Xanice said somewhat unhappily:

"What do you mean forced? I signed it willingly. And next time, please don't add such a long modifier in front of my benefactor."

Windsor said nonchalantly:

"I didn't say anything wrong, Xanice, you're just too thin-skinned. That old hag was deliberately provoking you at the time.

What 'Then I'll just consider that I saved the wrong person,' did I ask you to save me?"

Xanice didn't want to argue with her best friend about this matter, after all, their identities were different.

As the ruler of a vast empire, she must lead by example and not easily break contracts.

She changed the subject and asked:

"Stop lecturing me, how is your investigation into suitable candidates going?"

Windsor said helplessly:

"My Empress, the scope you gave is too broad.

According to the scope you mentioned, the royal bloodlines of countries on the continent that are over a thousand years old all fit the definition of 'Son of the Gods.'

That means there are many eligible young men.

As for having a powerful mother… that also needs to be verified one by one, it's a huge project.

By the way, even my teacher couldn't see the name of the man hidden in the engagement?"

Xanice nodded and said:

"It seems our guess was correct, this is indeed the work of a deity."

Windsor was shocked and said:

"You mean the woman who saved you is a deity?

How could a deity be so bored?"

Xanice shook her head:

"It's not necessarily a deity, maybe she borrowed some external force, like a semi-divine artifact or something.

But even so, this woman's strength and background should definitely not be underestimated."

Windsor said 'Oh' and, as if she had thought of something, quickly instructed:

"By the way, if anyone in the clan asks about my whereabouts, remember to cover for me and say that I am in the 'Lost Land' on your orders, carrying out a secret mission.

Um, someone's coming, I won't say much, I'll chat with you next time, love you!"

After speaking, she hurriedly cut off the connection of the magic array.

Xanice was stunned for a moment. Wasn't this girl working for the future of the Elf race?

Why did she still have to hide it from the people of the Elf race?

Sure enough, she still hadn't fully confided in herself!

Xanice shook her head, sighed, and continued to bury herself in busy government affairs.

… …

Windsor heard the movement outside and quickly cut off the connection of the magic array.

Soon, a knock sounded on the door, and Cohen's voice came:

"It's me, are you asleep?"

"Not yet, what's the matter?"

"I estimate that we will be leaving early tomorrow morning. I wanted to talk to you now about the magic array outside the altar where the 'Seed of Order' is buried."

"The door is unlocked, come in."

Cohen pushed the door open, a hint of amazement flashed in his eyes.

Windsor was obviously preparing to sleep and had already changed into a robe.

The silk robe rippled on her skin like water, and the lace trim emitted a faint halo under the dim magic light.

Windsor leaned lazily on the sofa, the robe's belt loosely tied, revealing a small section of her fair calf, and her bare, full, and crystal-clear exquisite jade feet.

Her hair was somewhat disheveled, obviously just washed, and a few strands of hair hung beside her cheeks.

Windsor waved her palm in Cohen's gaze, the neckline of the robe opened slightly due to the movement of her hand, and her delicate collarbone was faintly visible in the shadows:

"Never seen it before?"

Cohen retracted his surprised gaze and praised:

"There is less of the heroic spirit of usual, and more gentleness.

It's hard to imagine that this is a powerful Gold-tier Ranger."

A sly look appeared in Windsor's eyes, and she shook her jade feet in the air, saying:

"Teach me, I'm listening.

Um, come over and give me a foot massage while you're at it."

Cohen's expression froze, looking at the delicate jade feet that came into view, the toes were full and jade-like, curled together, and stretched straight into a beautiful and moving curve.

His throat was a little dry, and he said:

"That's not appropriate, is it?"

Although he said that, his footsteps had already moved to Windsor's side.

The corners of Windsor's mouth curled up slightly, and she suddenly retracted her jade feet, curled up her legs, and teased:

"Dream on, if you want a woman, go find your wife, I won't be like someone else, hooking up with a married man!"

Cohen's face stiffened, knowing that Windsor was still angry about what happened during the day, and shook his head with a wry smile:

"Alright, it's getting late, I'll tell you how to break that array…"

Seeing Cohen start talking about serious matters, Windsor also put away her little temper and listened carefully to Cohen's explanation, her calm jade face exuding a different kind of charm.

Time passed quickly. After Cohen poured the knowledge of breaking the altar's magic array that he had seen on the forum in his previous life into Windsor's mind, his tone became much gentler:

"You have really worked hard these days. Without Miss Windsor's help.

Our 'Endless Blade' would not have developed so smoothly."

Windsor stretched lazily, her slender arms raised high, and the cuffs of her robe slipped down, revealing her lotus-root-like, warm and jade-like forearms.

Slowly turning her neck, her silver hair swayed, revealing her pointed ears, and she said:

"What? Do you feel guilty?

I'm not Naftis or Freya, I can't be fooled by just words."

Windsor's sexy and lazy charm made Cohen slightly avert his gaze. He said seriously:

"I just want to tell you, after experiencing these days of getting along.

Even if there is no so-called transaction between us, I am willing to accompany you and help you enter that ancient Elven tomb and explore the secrets of the Sleeping Cave.

I kept some things from you in the beginning because we had only known each other for a short time, but now I can tell you.

In fact, the way to enter that Sleeping Cave located under the ruins of the Arcane Empire is not through the ancient magic array.

Um, do you remember the book you used a few days ago that could trap Manager Moro and the others in a sub-dimension?

In fact, that book is what I got on the ruins of the Arcane Empire.

It can help us pass through the external magic barrier of the Sleeping Cave.

However, it is currently in a semi-damaged state and requires a lot of resources to repair.

The hundred pounds of space stone I told you about before is an important repair material.

Don't worry, as long as we gather enough resources, I will repair this equipment as soon as possible and accompany you to the Sleeping Cave."

Cohen's sincere confession stunned Windsor.

A complicated expression appeared on her beautiful jade face, and she was silent for a long time before saying:

"So you were still lying to me in the beginning?"

Cohen's face collapsed, thinking that I said so much, how could you only remember this one thing.

He drooped his head and said helplessly:

"We had only known each other for a short time at the time, and I didn't know your character, what if I told you and you wanted to rob my equipment?"

Looking at Cohen's appearance, Windsor suddenly chuckled and waved her hand:

"Alright, your confession has made this lady's mood a little better.

I won't hold you accountable for what happened before. Don't worry, I will safely retrieve the 'Seed of Order' for you.

As for other things, um, I hope that the so-called time for you to be mature won't be too far away.

This lady doesn't want to talk to a mask all day long!"

Cohen breathed a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly.

Windsor yawned, turned around, and lay on the sofa like a soft cat.

The robe spread out naturally along the curves of her body, perfectly presenting the smooth and rounded curves of her fragrant shoulders, and the outline of her hips was also more rounded and upturned under the robe's wrapping.

The hem of the robe was slightly lifted, revealing her tight and beautiful legs and slender ankles, exuding an irresistible and seductive aura.

Windsor's comfortable and relaxed voice sounded:

"I'm going to go out and work for you again soon, come over and give this lady a massage, keep your hands honest and don't move around!"

… …

Cohen took out the "Book of Time and Space." Originally, his plan was to imprint a time and space node in Gengzhe City-State, so that he could travel back and forth between the two places.

But after thinking about it, he felt that this was, after all, within the sphere of influence of the "Mysterious Continent," and if the Lord of the Sequence, Belmote, had any means to monitor spatial fluctuations, it would be easy to expose himself.

Therefore, he decided to imprint the space node after his "Oasis of Order" began to be established.

Putting away the "Book of Time and Space," Cohen prepared and set off to meet with the [Musician].

Just as Cohen arrived at the agreed-upon location outside of 'Farmland City-State,' a soft, feminine voice came from behind him:

"All farewells to your ladies concluded?"

Cohen turned around, and the 'Virtuoso' was already behind him.

He replied calmly:

"As expected of a senior intelligence officer under the 'Demon Lord,' your gossiping skills are truly remarkable."

Mefis raised an eyebrow slightly, her face tightening as she said:

"A mere Fourth Order dares to mock a Ninth Order Transcendent?

It seems neither your elven wife nor the princess are by your side.

Who gave you such courage?"

Cohen's gaze remained as still as an ancient well:

"I am here to fulfill my promise. If you do not require the two divinity-achieving potion formulas, feel free to try and attack."

Mefis suddenly smiled, saying:

"As expected of the 'Lord of Shadows,' no wonder you can converse freely with Saints and Legends.

Regardless of your strength, this composure is truly impressive."

Hearing the other party call out his alias in one breath, Cohen's expression shifted slightly, and suspicion arose in his heart.

They had indeed thoroughly investigated him and quickly linked him to the 'Lord of Shadows.'

The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

The 'Virtuoso's' intelligence capabilities were indeed outstanding.

Of course, what Cohen didn't know was that his identity was exposed not because of the 'Virtuoso's' excellent intelligence capabilities.

But because Belmorti, the Lord of Sequences, had told Mefis.

Cohen would never have imagined that the Demon Lord's most capable intelligence officer was actually a person of the Lord of Sequences.

Cohen praised:

"The 'Virtuoso's' intelligence capabilities are indeed admirable."

Mefis's lips moved slightly as she said:

"Let's go, follow me to Potion City-State.

As long as you can prove the authenticity of the potion formulas you provide, I will speak on your behalf to the Demon Lord.

As long as you can fill the void left by the Petrov family, the Chaotic Demon Continent will not interfere with the operation of 'Farmland City-State,' at least for a while."

Cohen nodded slightly but didn't follow, instead saying meaningfully:

"I have an idea that would greatly benefit both sides. I wonder if the 'Virtuoso' is willing to listen?"

Mefis stopped, her curious gaze sweeping over Cohen:

"Tell me, what scheme are you plotting now?"

Cohen took out a soul contract and said calmly:

"As you can see, my 'Endless Blade' adventurer team has successfully taken control of 'Farmland City-State.'

In the future, I want to further expand my power in the 'Land of the Lost.'

With just the few girls in my team, our strength is still somewhat lacking, so I would like to make a deal with you."

Mefis looked at the soul contract in Cohen's hand with interest, feeling the faint mystical aura on it, and asked:

"What kind of deal?"

Cohen continued:

"My team currently has a [Treasurer], [Administrator], [Secretary], [Diplomat], [Logistics Officer], and [Military Officer].

Hmm, I think to survive and develop in the 'Land of the Lost,' we also need an experienced and charming [Intelligence Officer]!"

Cohen pushed the soul contract in front of Mefis, his voice devoid of emotion.

Mefis pointed at herself with her slender fingers, her voice suppressing a hint of sarcasm:

"Are you saying that you want to recruit me and have me join your adventurer team?

I didn't hear wrong, did I.

A Third... hmm, just recently Fourth Order newbie, is recruiting a Ninth Order powerful Transcendent and a City Lord of a high-level Order City-State as a subordinate?"

Cohen nodded seriously, his tone calm:

"Not officially, after all, this is our first contact, including the contact between you and my team.

We don't know each other well, so you won't have access to some of the team's secrets and benefits for the time being.

Hmm... similar to labor dispatch, I pay you, and you provide me with intelligence, temporarily acting as the [Intelligence Officer] in our team.

I can terminate the agreement at any time, and of course, you can withdraw at any time if you feel it's not suitable."

Mefis couldn't help but giggle, saying:

"So after all this, I'm still an external staff member?

Tell me, what's the basis for this?"

Mefis wasn't angry at Cohen's bold words.

Belmorti, including her sister Melantha, who was lurking in the "Black Tomb," had given her a detailed report about the "Lord of Shadows."

Analyzing from those reports, the "Lord of Shadows" wasn't a person who boasted.

Therefore, she was willing to give him a chance to explain.

Cohen gathered his spirit and said in a deep voice:

"Based on the 'God of Music Sequence' potion formulas!

This formula isn't just up to the Legendary rank, nor is it just up to the Saint rank.

But from the Bronze rank [Drummer], Silver rank [Dancer], Gold rank [Virtuoso], Legendary rank [Conductor], Saint rank [Creator], all the way to the Supreme [God of Music], a complete potion formula and combination!"

Cohen's words caused Mefis's thoughts to pause for a moment.

After a long while, she gradually recovered, realizing what Cohen was saying.

The other party actually possessed the 'God of Music Sequence' potion formulas all the way to godhood?

How was this possible?

Mefis felt a sense of absurdity.

She had previously spent a great price to have a divination done at the Church of Prophecy in the Human Continent.

Even the Church of Prophecy couldn't accurately divine the formula for the Legendary rank [Conductor], only giving a rough range.

And this young "Lord of Shadows" confidently claimed to know the 'God of Music Sequence' potion formulas up to the godhood stage. If it weren't for the various pieces of intelligence that Belmorti and Melantha had passed on,

She would definitely think this kid was fooling around with her!

Mefis quickly suppressed the complex emotions in her heart and asked in a deep voice:

"Do you know what you're saying?"

Cohen nodded calmly:

"I'm very clear. As long as you're willing to make this deal, I will naturally prove to you whether my words are true."

Mefis fell into deep thought.

The deal that Cohen proposed was too significant, and she couldn't make a decision immediately.

Cohen smiled faintly:

"You wouldn't have some strange loyalty to the 'Demon Lord,' would you?

As far as I know, 'loyalty' is a luxury for most people in the 'Land of the Lost.'

Instead, they value benefits more.

You were willing to join the Chaotic Demon Continent because you were attracted by the formula for the [Virtuoso] advancing from the Eighth Order to the Ninth Order, weren't you?"

Mefis's heart leaped, the other party even knew about this?

How terrifying!

The reason Mefis initially chose to lurk in the Chaotic Demon Continent was not only to keep an eye on this powerful and ill-intentioned neighbor for the Lord of Sequences, Belmorti.

More importantly, the Demon Lord of the Chaotic Demon Continent at that time claimed to have the formula for the [Virtuoso] advancing from the Eighth Order to the Ninth Order.

Although this wasn't a top secret, it was still old news.

How could a newbie who had only been in the 'Land of the Lost' for a few months know so clearly?

Mefis suppressed the doubts in her heart and said solemnly:

"This matter is of great importance, I need to discuss it with someone."

Cohen frowned slightly, saying:

"Discuss it with someone?

I believe our deal should be top secret, and no third party should know."

Mefis shook her head, saying:

"This is a prerequisite for our two-person deal.

But don't worry, this person isn't an outsider.

She's my relative and certainly wouldn't do anything harmful to me."

Cohen fell into thought upon hearing her words:

A female relative?

In the game in my previous life, I never heard of the "Virtuoso" having any female relatives.

Speaking of which, even the "Virtuoso's" true identity wasn't truly revealed by the game company in my previous life.

At least, the game company didn't announce the "Virtuoso's" true identity before the "War of the Gods" expansion pack was loaded.

Cohen considered for a moment, thinking that since the other party was also an external member, not involving the team's core secrets,

It would be fine to let her discuss it with her relatives.

After all, Mefis's intelligence capabilities were very important to the "Endless Blade" at this stage, and he also needed a Ninth Order Transcendent to support him.

He said:

"Alright, but it's limited to this one person knowing."

Mefis nodded, waved her slender hand, and disappeared instantly.

Mefis naturally went to report to the Lord of Sequences, Belmorti.

Joining the "Endless Blade" adventurer team and obtaining the complete potion formulas and combination of the "God of Music Sequence."

This matter had to be discussed with Belmorti.

After all, she was joining a force, even if it was a temporary external member.

Mefis had to ensure that her actions wouldn't interfere with the witch's plan.

Cohen's words just now were half right, the people of the "Land of the Lost" could be without "loyalty," but they couldn't be without "kinship."

To Belmode, the Tinuville sisters were like family.

Belmode had raised the two sisters single-handedly, and they saw her as a mother and older sister.

Therefore, they consulted Belmode on both official and personal matters.

Arriving at a secluded spot, Mavis contacted Belmode directly and told her about the deal between Cohen and herself.

Belmode was equally surprised and asked:

"Does he really have the complete formula for the 'God of Joy Sequence'?"

Mavis replied:

"He means that if I'm willing to accept the deal, he'll prove it to me."

Belmode's interest was piqued:

"I didn't expect this kid to have this trick up his sleeve. It seems he was born to be one of us from the Mysterious Continent!

This is a good thing. It's just joining his adventure group. I agree.

Anyway, the 'Farmer City-State' currently controlled by his adventure group is within the sphere of influence of our Mysterious Continent.

He can be considered one of us.

Joining them isn't a loss for you. You can even get a complete 'God of Joy Sequence' formula for free. This deal is too good to pass up."

Mavis hesitated and said:

"But he also wants to sign some kind of soul contract. What if there are confidentiality requirements..."

Belmode waved her hand generously and said:

"As long as his confidentiality requirements don't endanger the safety of our Mysterious Continent, then keep it confidential. You don't have to report everything to me. Just make your own decisions.

These are minor details. The main point is whether the other party really possesses the formula for the 'God of Joy Sequence'.

You must see this clearly. Don't be fooled by him."

Mavis nodded seriously.

Belmode suddenly thought of something, fell silent for a moment, and said hesitantly:

"I've met this 'Lord of Shadows' once. This person does have a certain charm.

Moreover, he has several young and beautiful ladies by his side. These kinds of men are generally very..."

Mavis was stunned for a moment, then realized what she meant and said with some shyness:

"Don't worry, Sister. I'm not some naive simpleton who can be easily deceived. His sweet talk won't work on me."

Belmode's worried appearance at this time didn't resemble a legendary witch in charge of an 'Order Oasis,' but more like a parent worried about whether their daughter would be deceived.

Belmode nodded and said:

"It's good that you have a sense of proportion. The 'Lord of Shadows' identity is too mysterious. We can only cooperate with him. As for deeper relationships, it's best not to have them for now."

Mavis carefully took Belmode's instructions to heart.

Soon, she added:

"Don't tell Melantha about this yet, Sister, so she won't worry."

Belmode replied:

"I know what I'm doing. By the way, your sister has already returned to the 'Black Tomb' headquarters and may return to the Northwest Continent in a while.

I heard that 'Black Tomb' is preparing to rebuild the Northwest Branch there. Melantha is in charge of personnel deployment as the preparation commissioner. If there's nothing important, try not to contact her either.

She's likely to have a legendary figure around her during this time."

Mavis nodded. The two chatted about other things and then hung up, leaving separately.

Mavis returned to Cohen's side, stared into his eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"How are you going to prove it to me?"

Cohen remained expressionless on the surface, but he was secretly pondering whether the other party had already discussed it with her family.

He was really curious about what other female relatives the famous "Virtuoso" had in his previous life!

He brought his thoughts back and said calmly:

"The potion combination is 'Vocal Music Ⅲ,' 'Leadership Ⅰ,' and 'Further Studies Ⅰ.'

This is the potion combination for advancing from the ninth-order [Virtuoso] to the legendary-order [Conductor].

You are now at the peak of the ninth order and should have already taken 'Vocal Music Ⅲ.'

The next potion sequence is 'Leadership Ⅰ' and 'Further Studies Ⅰ.'

As long as your body and willpower allow it, after taking 'Leadership Ⅰ,' you will be able to advance to the half-step legendary order and touch the threshold of the legendary order.

At that time, you will know whether what I said is true.

If you still have doubts, you can take this potion combination to the Prophecy Church for targeted verification.

Of course, in that case, the secret of your obtaining the legendary-order potion combination is likely to be revealed."

When Mavis heard the three combinations that Cohen said, she already believed him seven or eight points.

When she consulted the Prophecy Church before, although they didn't give a precise combination, the general range did include the latter two potions.

The most important of these is the potion called "Leadership Ⅰ."

Even Belmode, the knowledgeable Lord of the Sequence, had never heard of this potion. Mavis only learned of the existence of such a potion from the divination of the Prophecy Church.

Now that she heard the name from Cohen's mouth, Mavis was inclined to believe that he was not lying.

She pondered for a long time, and finally nodded slowly under Cohen's expectant gaze:

"The contract?

Bring it here for me to see."

Cohen handed the contract to Mavis, who carefully read the terms.

There was nothing particularly difficult on it. The general meaning was that Mavis would provide intelligence services for the "Endless Blade" adventure group and secretly serve as the Director-General of the Foreign Security Bureau of the "Farmer City-State."

When necessary, Mavis would take action for the "Farmer City-State."

In return, the other party would give Mavis the complete "God of Joy Sequence" potion combination and formula.

And undertake the task of configuring the potion when Mavis advances to the legendary order.

Only to break through the legendary order?

Even with a complete formula, it is difficult to successfully configure a new potion without multiple experiments.

Moreover, the potion materials required for the legendary order are mostly very precious. If the other party can configure them, that would be great.

Mavis stared at Cohen and said:

"There are three stages in the legendary order. Can't you directly configure these potions for me?"

A sly look appeared in Cohen's eyes, and his voice was full of temptation:

"This is a benefit that only my official members can enjoy.

If you can gain my approval and swear absolute loyalty to me.

Not to mention the legendary order, even the potions for the Saint and Supreme orders, I will help you configure them completely and successfully, and even help you reduce the risk of taking the potions.

The question is, can you do it?"

Mavis's eyes deepened, and she said quietly:

"The loyalty you speak of, wouldn't it be like those girls in your team, to become your wife or lover?"

Cohen was stunned when he heard this, and a look of indignation quickly appeared on his face. He said angrily:

"Where did you hear the rumors from!

Who is slandering my character again?

The relationship between me and my team members is purely friendship. What wife or lover, slander, it's all slander!

Mavis raised her eyebrows slightly, but she couldn't say that Her Excellency the Witch had already labeled you as a womanizer and lecher.

She said calmly:

"You also said that the people of the 'Lost Land' don't need loyalty.

Let's leave it at that for now. As for the future potions, let's talk about it when I advance to the legendary order.

Now you should tell me how to sign this contract, and what is that Foreign Security Bureau!"

Cohen steadied his mind and said:

"Just soak the contract with blood.

Also, a friendly reminder, this is an ancient elven soul contract. Don't try to break it easily."

As he said that, he cut his finger and imprinted a drop of blood on the contract.

Mavis's mouth moved slightly. While cutting her slender finger and imprinting the contract, she said:

"Did your elven wife give it to you?"

Cohen smiled and didn't answer. He continued the previous topic and said:

"As for the Foreign Security Bureau, this is an intelligence agency I established in the 'Farmer City-State,' mainly responsible for the collection, analysis, and evaluation of political, economic, and military intelligence of the 'Lost Land,' to provide intelligence support for the city-state's security and decision-making.

Now this department already has a Deputy Director. His name is Ryder Gallo, who used to be a Blood Lord's aide. I believe you should be no stranger to him..."
