Chapter 1131: 349. To be scrupulously faithful to one’s duties

“Starting today, we will construct an official secret base within the town,”

Jay Spade clenched his fist excitedly, then slowly relaxed it and gave an order,

“First, take my team members to familiarize themselves with the city and the surrounding environment. Find a suitable location to establish a secret base. If possible, find the whereabouts of those sea monsters in town and keep a close eye on the emissary going to sign a Magic Contract with Lophi. It would be best if we could find out the specific terms of the contract between them.”

“Yes, my lord,” Lamont bowed respectfully.

“Moreover, the Undead Cult has purchased so much Soul Energy, they are certainly up to no good.”

Jay Spade tapped the tabletop with his knuckles, emphasizing his words,

...

“We must eliminate any disasters that may arise in the future, which requires us to master as much as possible the internal movements of the Undead Cult. We need to know where they are going to use the Soul Energy and for what purpose. If they use this massive amount of Soul Energy to form an Army of Spirits, we must also be there at the first moment to destroy this force, and we cannot allow the Earth Vein Pillar to steal our results.”

“Yes! My lord!” Lamont bowed again, trembling with excitement.

The Pure Light Magic that could be harvested from exterminating the Army of Spirits could be described as massive.

By then, he, as a frontline shadow operative, would surely receive a large amount of reward.

Jay Spade straightened his expression and said,

“Alright, you may leave now. Continue with your task.”

Lamont bowed and left, exiting the study room to lead the Light Wizards in familiarizing themselves with the environment.

Jay Spade pulled out a metal box and began to practice the Meditation Method to recover his strength.

At this time, the Mechanos controlled by Noland Lee flew past the outside of his house.

The Assassin Angel had locked onto the Giant Dragon aura on the metal box.

Thanks to the proper concealment, the existence of the Mechanos was not detected by Jay Spade.

An hour passed.

Just as Jay Spade finished meditating, Lamont knocked on the study room door.

“My lord, there is a situation with the sea monsters.”

Lamont spoke rapidly,

“While searching for a suitable location to establish the base, we accidentally discovered sea monsters researching the Underground River. Before they detected our presence, we left the scene without disturbing them.”

“Sea monsters are studying the Underground River?” Jay Spade frowned slightly,

“Is there anything special about that river?”

“Yes, my lord, you may not yet be aware…” Lamont recounted the peculiarities of the Underground River to him, emphasizing the Magic Effect of the Underground River Water. noveldrama

It was a river brimming with Death Energy, ready to be used as casting materials at any time.

Whether for constructing a Necromancer’s Watchtower or summoning a Skeleton Colossus, materials could be sourced from this river.

As for why the Earth Vein Pillar left the river unchecked, Lamont also briefly explained it to Jay Spade.

After hearing this, Jay Spade’s gaze flickered with thought,

“The power of sea monsters comes from the Deep Sea. The corrosive nature of the Deep Sea is the natural enemy of many Magic Energies, with only a few types of energy impervious to corrosion by Sea Water—Death Energy is one of them. If we could mimic the way the Undead Cult has transformed the Underground River Water to modify Deep Sea Water accordingly, it would further enhance the sea monsters’ prowess In the Deep Sea. Could it be that learning from the Undead Cult to transform bodies of water with Death Magic is the aim of the sea monsters’ collaboration with the Undead Cult?”

The more Jay Spade thought about it, the more sense his speculation seemed to make.

He spoke with a grave voice,

“Deploy all team members to closely monitor that group of sea monsters, but be sure to remain concealed. I will request Reinforcement from Headquarters, and by tomorrow at the latest, another team will arrive to assist us.”

“Yes, my lord!”
