Chapter 886 257: Shadow Demon or Shadow Clan? The Human True God of the Pharmacist Domain (10K)_3
"As long as you want to go, I'll accompany you."
"Xiao You is the best!"
...
[Location: Duchy of Enkilan - Royal Capital]
The player [My Great Tree of Infinity] wore a subtle expression as he looked at the shadow in front of him and said:
"Are you sure this information is true?"
My Great Tree of Infinity was part of the third wave of players to enter the game. Compared to earlier players, he, having joined the organization [Mouse Eye] founded by Lan Xiaoyu, quickly stood out among new players with a bit of early assistance from Kael.
Having tasted the benefits of taking on tasks from special NPCs, My Great Tree of Infinity embarked on a relentless investigative journey.
For a considerable period, he set aside leveling up and pioneering, focusing more on communication and interaction with the natives, trying every means to broaden his information channels.
Perhaps due to luck, he soon used the connections he built assisting the emerging nobility in establishing dungeons to slightly expand his sources related to the nobles' circle.
After several collaborations, the power of [Mouse Eye] began gradually spreading into the Enkilan nobility's circles.
My Great Tree of Infinity thus leveraged related resources to rapidly expand his related endeavors.
However, as development progressed, there seemed to be some subtle changes in the direction. His original intent was to actively expand [Mouse Eye]'s business within the game's noble communities.
As it turns out, among the people he mainly dealt with now, a significant portion had become those rats in the gutters that couldn't be brought to light.
Thinking of this, Great Tree sighed deeply and said, "Brother, you and we [Mouse Eye] have collaborated for quite a long time. Give me a reliable word, how accurate is this piece of news really?"
The person in the shadow slightly leaned out, his lower face obscured by a black mask, and his lips faintly moved, seemingly wanting to say something.
Finally, he sighed softly and said, "Brother Great Tree, you know we've collaborated many times. Though we are gutter rats, we also know there are some things we should not do.
In our [Infiltrators], there was an elder who, early on, once had to go to the Bottomless Abyss because he fell in love with a witch; he had come into contact with the Shadow Demon Clan in the Bottomless Abyss.
He assured me, positively and certainly, that the clan leader of the Charles family is undoubtedly a pure-blood shadow demon.
When I first heard this, I was quite skeptical. After all, the Charles family has propagated for so long and has always resided in the Royal Capital, under the watchful eye of the Duke of Lion Heart...
I can't comprehend how such an existence could turn into a shadow demon.
Yet… at least I'm someone from the Duchy of Enkilan and truly don't want to let a shadow demon, a shadow demon with some real power, operate among the various groups in the Royal Capital.
If he finds he can't hide anymore, I dread to imagine the loss it could bring."
My Great Tree of Infinity nodded in understanding.
With his frequent interactions with NPCs, he naturally knew that there was also a complete internal logic among NPCs.
Therefore, he had a certain level of trust in this infiltrator from the [Infiltrators] organization.
The deeper his understanding of this game, the clearer his recognition of the complete logical framework of the game.
In this game, there has been no "breaking the setting" operation thus far; behind every seemingly illogical operation, there was always a more reasonable inference.
For this reason, My Great Tree of Infinity had unwavering faith in "Gate of the Netherworld."
"This isn't right... A shadow demon, and yet able to quietly replace that Count Rezhe under the Duke of Lion Heart's watchful eye, this is starting to become interesting.
However, if I recall correctly, the Charles family has a very close relationship with Brother Kael, especially the younger generation of the Charles family. They seem to have quite a lot of contact.
I wonder if knowing about this would sadden him."
What My Great Tree of Infinity thought in his heart was unknown to outsiders, but one thing was certain, and that was that delivering this intel to Brother Kael would definitely yield worthy rewards.
Having once obtained seed funding from Brother Kael, Great Tree had no hesitation in making this judgment.
After all, what task reward could be more valuable than in-depth communication with the "game's protagonist"?
"I've remembered this matter, and there will be a grand reward once it's accomplished. The relationships between us [Mouse Eye] and [Infiltrators] have now established an even closer bond.
Personally, I think there are some pieces of information that we can absolutely exchange mutually."
Hearing such a promise from My Great Tree of Infinity, the infiltrator's face revealed a delighted expression.
No one understands the strength of this intelligence organization, established around the undead, better than the [Infiltrators].
Although compared to those top-tier intelligence organizations, the high-end intelligence that [Mouse Eye] can collect is limited, they also clearly understand that, for [Infiltrators], that excessively high-end intelligence holds little practical use.
