"In a way, this is a failure on the part of our defense department."

At this point, Alan let out a long sigh.

"This is the human heart, since Ms. Buyer has brought this up."

"I think it will be much easier to search for this now."

"Dr. Truth said."

“Okay.” Alan nodded. “Please wait a moment, everyone. I will start investigating in this direction immediately.”

Without waiting for a reply, Alan took out his phone and sent a notification to the defense department.

With a clear direction for the investigation, the process becomes much easier.

Alan received the results in just a few minutes.

“Ms. Bouyer, you are right.”

"Almost all of the missing persons were people who had expressed opinions about the management of the Black Tower space station."

Alan said with a serious expression.

Paimon: That's really true!

[Coley: The Great Tree King, so amazing!]

[Wen710Di: After all, he was once the god of wisdom; it's perfectly normal for him to have guessed these things.]

[Zhongli: From a universally rational perspective, this is indeed the case.]

[Nasida: I still have much to learn.]

"You are very perceptive; no wonder you are the woman that Luo Feng values."

Doctor Truth looked at the Great Tree King and said.

"I am very honored to receive your praise, Professor Ladio."

The Great Tree King looked at the calm-faced Doctor Truth, his eyes growing ever more profound.

"I have a question."

"Mr. Alan, you mentioned earlier that almost all the missing persons were people who had grievances against the space station management."

"In other words, there were also unrelated people who were accidentally caught up in it, right?"

Candice asked Alan a question, puzzled.

"It's not entirely unrelated," Alan shook his head and said.

"The list of missing persons includes a clerk named Adler."

"Before he disappeared, I asked him to investigate missing persons."

"I think his disappearance is inextricably linked to my request for him to investigate this matter."

"He must have been targeted by Duke of Darkfire because of his overly in-depth investigation."

At this point, Alan let out a deep sigh.

A sense of guilt overwhelmed him.

"So you were involved too."

"So, did this clerk named Adler investigate anything before he disappeared?"

Candice asked.

Alan nodded at first, but then shook his head:

"He had communicated with Wen Shiling before he went missing."

“I talked to Wen Shiling about Adler.”

“Wen Shih-ling told me that Adler was always talking about words like ‘fragrance’ back then.”

"Then they gave me this booklet back. Wen Shiling said it was a booklet left by Adler."

As he spoke, Alan handed over the booklet that Adler had left behind.

The Great Compassion Tree King took the booklet, and after reading the words on it, a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

"A special feature on Siskar, the 29th member of the Genius Club!"

The Great Compassion Tree King murmured.

"Siskar, that is, the one whose life was extremely short, but who made many achievements in scientific research!"

"Kavi said in surprise."

"It is indeed that Spider Lady."

"Moreover, Lord Luo Feng once mentioned that this Spider Lady had researched a special flame called Phase Spirit Fire."

"This flame can travel through all realms and burn them."

Candice nodded and said affirmatively.

"But how did Adler manage to investigate her? What does this have to do with her?"

"I can't understand it," Dixia asked.

"Adler is also investigating a strange object that Lady Black Tower lost."

"Perhaps this strange object is related to Sisikar."

Alan said.

"Perhaps it's not just that," the Great Tree King said, raising its head.

"As far as I know, Siskar once developed a magical flame called Phase Flame."

"This flame possesses the power to traverse between realms."

"This does fit the characteristic of missing persons disappearing suddenly and being accompanied by flames."

“I think the ‘fragrance’ that Wen Shiling mentioned actually doesn’t refer to fragrance, but rather to ‘phase’.”

Upon hearing this, Dixia's eyes lit up:

"It does seem to match up."

"Truly worthy of being called the King of the Great Compassion Trees."

Desia rested her chin on her hand, thought for a moment, and then spoke:

"Could it be that the disappearance of the missing persons was caused by the Phase Flame?"

"The artifact that Lady Black Tower lost was actually the Phase Flame. Then Grand Duke Darkfire found the Phase Flame and used it to make the personnel of Black Tower Space Station disappear?"

Alan lowered his head and murmured:

"So that's how it is. Among Lady Black Tower's artifacts, there is indeed one that is related to the Phase Flame."

"Lady Black Tower once captured the flames of the Phase Flame clan and sealed them away."

"Although it is only a small stalk of phase spirit fire, it still has the power to travel through space."

The Great Tree King glanced at Doctor Truth, whose eyes were fixed on him, and then, recalling the information Luo Feng had given about the Grand Duke of Netherfire, spoke:

"That is indeed one possibility, but it is not the only one."

"Lord Luo Feng once mentioned that the birth of a fire demon like Duke Minghuo was related to a member of a certain genius club."

"The Phase Flame can burn all realms, and the Grand Duke of Netherfire is covered in flames."

"Therefore, the Darkfire Grand Duke may have been born from the phase spirit fire of Sisikar, one of the members of the Genius Club."

"The Phase Flame can traverse all realms, so perhaps that Grand Duke of Netherfire also obtained some of the power from the Phase Flame."

Dr. Truth clapped his hands and said:

"That's a brilliant deduction. I didn't expect you to arrive at the answer so quickly."

The Great Tree King looked at Doctor Truth and said:

"Professor Latio should have already gotten the answer by now."

"After all, you've always seemed so confident."

Dr. Truth shrugged and said casually:

"I'm just used to it."

"Now that we've found what we're looking for, let's go back to Rosgoo and Estelle."

"These things need to be told to them."

The Great Compassion Tree King nodded slightly and said:

"Indeed, regardless of which phase spirit fire Duke of Netherfire used to make the clerk disappear."

"Or use your abilities to make the clerks disappear."

"This matter will not end so easily."

"As long as Miss Estáe informs the people on the space station about the conspiracy of the Darkfire Duke."
