Did the villainous professor survive today?

Chapter 83 V, you stay here for a moment.

Looking at the gate in front of him, Krenk subconsciously swallowed.

Did they use some means to forcibly invite me here because they saw that I was not attending the meeting for a long time?

He tentatively took a step forward.

No sound.

Kroenke glanced down at the ground.

The original pure white suit and brown leather shoes had now turned into a black shadow.

This is----

Kroenke then tried to take the second step.

The dark shadow enveloping him moved slowly, as if it were one with him.

Is this some kind of disguise I'm wearing?

Krenk pondered this questioningly, and continued onward.

As he moved forward, he observed his surroundings. Judging from the almost complete darkness outside the window, he was in an abyss, or perhaps an even more secluded place.

Krenk came to the door and placed his right hand on it.

Yea.

After the sound, the door opened.

What comes into view is a spacious study, with candlelight slowly burning on the ceiling, and bookshelves around it filled with tattered books that haven't been opened in a long time.

In the very center of the room was an extremely long wooden table, with wooden chairs arranged on both sides. The chairs were filled with dark figures. The other letter sequences, like Krenk, were also enveloped in black shadows. The only difference was that their eyes were a different color.

At the far end of the long table stood a nearly transparent figure behind a bronze chair: "V, you're really late!"

Kroenke remained noncommittal, but out of the corner of his eye, he noticed an empty chair on the right, with the letter "V" engraved on the back.

Without thinking, he sat down and quickly glanced around.

Including myself, there were a total of 11 people in the alphabetical sequence attending the meeting.

Meanwhile, after observing the surrounding shadows for more than ten seconds, the system did not display any information.

"Lord Mengxiang!"

"A" turned around and shouted towards the study window, "The entire alphabet sequence is here!"

Are they all here? That means, excluding "L" and himself, there are still nine other letter sequences in other corners of the world, completing different tasks—

Krenk gathered information while following A's gaze.

On the balcony, a woman with black hair stood on the windowsill, holding onto the railing, facing outwards.

She wore a floor-length, lake-blue dress, and her hands were pale, with several cracks running from her hands to the seam of her sleeves, making them look like they were made of plaster rather than real.

Faced with A's report, Mengxiang did not respond at all, but just stared out the window as if there was something there that made her unable to look away.

"Well, it looks like we'll have to wait a while longer."

The shadowy figure beside Kroenke spoke up, her voice sounding like that of a mature older sister.

Wait a while? So now it's time for free discussion?

To avoid any mishaps, Kroenke chose to remain silent.

"V, you're as cold as ever—"

The dark figure in front of him shook his head and reached out, seemingly wanting to pat Krenk on the shoulder.

Then Krenk pried his hands open.

"Seriously, don't be so cold~"

The shadowy figure's voice sounded like it was about to cry, "I came to find you, but I want to make a deal with you!"

Kroenke glanced at him, as if tacitly agreeing that the other person should continue.

The older woman carefully considered her words before saying, "I hope you can help me kill someone. Of course, it would be even better if you could capture them alive and bring them to me."

"Who?"

"Agura, do you know him? If I remember correctly, this demi-human is studying at St. Auster Magic Academy, and happens to be in your class."

The shadowy figure's voice remained incredibly alluring. "If you can help me kill him and bring his head over, I'll kill one person for you in return. Of course, if you can capture him alive and bring him over, that would be even better. However, it's quite difficult to capture him and transport him all the way to the Southern Continent. If you really succeed, I can help you kill three people."

This alphabetical sequence is from the Southern Continent, and she also knows my current true identity.

Kroenke remained calm: "Anything else to add?"

"I don't have any grudge against this Agurah."

Seeing that Kroenke seemed interested, the older sister figure nudged closer to him. "But his sister has caused me a lot of trouble, so I've decided to teach her a lesson. Just thinking about her opening the box and seeing her brother's head makes me almost climax."

"Then you should know that this contradicts my mission."

Krenk crossed his arms. "I can't kill someone under Abraham's nose and escape Sistine's all-seeing eye."

"It's alright!" The older sister figure waved her hand. "This bounty is valid indefinitely. Even if you fail, I won't blame you!"

"I understand," Krenk nodded.

The older sister in the shadows almost kissed Krenk on the cheek: "Great! V! You're much more reliable than L! I haven't even said what kind of deal we're making, and she's already rejected me!"

At the same time, the shadowy figure on the other side of the older sister's shadow suddenly stirred: "R, I advise you to behave yourself. If you really anger the rebels and they fight you to the death, it won't do the plan any good."

So she was R?

Kroenke thought to himself.

"L, you should learn from V. Don't make sure you can handle your own affairs before asking others to clean up your messes."

R said in a sarcastic tone.

L:

Kroenke glanced out of the corner of his eye in the direction of the "L," and then he saw it—

A pair of blue eyes were faintly visible in the shadows.

Adele?!

The image of that blue-eyed, blue-haired girl, like a vibrant cornflower, resurfaced in Krenk's mind.

"Alright everyone! Sorry to keep you waiting!"

A hoarse female voice came from the other side, interrupting Krenk's thoughts.

Krenk turned his head and saw Mengxiang sitting on a bronze chair at the end of the long table, with the transparent A standing behind her, straight and upright.

Her skin was a pale white, cracked all over, like a plaster sculpture weathered by time. Her hair was disheveled, looking like it hadn't been styled in a long time.

But what Kroenke cared about most was her face.

No, to be precise, she has no face.

Her face caved inward, leaving only a patch of black, like a black hole that could devour light. A hoarse voice came from within this black hole: "I summoned everyone here to relocate personnel."

As she spoke, Meng Xiang turned her head and looked at one of the dark figures: "K, how long until your work in the Eastern Continent is finally finished?"

A dark figure with red eyes bowed and said, "Reporting to Lord Mengxiang, the final stages can be completed within six months!"

"Okay, K," Mengxiang nodded. "After we finish, we'll head to Saint Auster to meet up with L and V. As for your mission in Saint Auster, I'll assign you a separate task."

"yes!"

Is another new alphabetical sequence coming? It could appear within six months, that is, this semester—

Dealing with two letter sequences in a row?

Krenk stared at the dark figure with red eyes directly opposite him, deep in thought.

"Z, evacuate from the Southern Continent and head to the Ceylon Empire in the Eastern Continent," Mengxiang continued assigning tasks. "You'll take over K's future work and sow discord between Ceylon and the Kingdom of Shivan."

Listening to Mengxiang's arrangements, Klenk thought to himself, "How come the meetings of this secretive organization are so similar to the weekly meetings and personnel reshuffles of the company leaders in my previous life?"

and----

To sow discord between Ceylon and the Kingdom of Sivan?

The former, hailed as the "Saint Austel of the East," is a wealthy trading nation with a large population, comprising 70% of the world's population.

90% of the spices come from this country.

The latter is a country established in a vast desert. Shivan means lion in the local language. The Kingdom of Shivan is famous for its powerful Mamluk-style heavy cavalry. The knights there wear chainmail and ride dragon horses that are like mobile fortresses. Wherever they sweep, they strike fear into the hearts of all who hear of them.

Kroenke silently noted down this information, hoping to find a chance to use it later.

"Y, immediately suspend all your missions in the Northern Continent, head to the Southern Continent, and take over Z's current work, cooperating with R."

After making personnel adjustments, Mengxiang nodded.

"That's all. Does anyone have any questions?"

No one questioned it.

"Alright, then let's adjourn the meeting here," Mengxiang nodded in satisfaction.

Then she looked in Krenk's direction, "Oh, right, V, you stay."
