Registus glanced at the report and handed it to Andrius.
Andrius looked at it and sneered.
The report only said that the ancient martial families were attacked by mysterious experts and were unable to resist, resulting in their defeat and massacre.
Then, there were some official-sounding words such as how the culprit could not be tolerated and must be captured, but it was just lip service.
“The Progenitor Emperor deliberately took charge of the matter, but now he’s being sloppy about it...”
Registus snorted coldly. “Andrius, he’s snubbing us.”
Andrius knew that Arthur was obviously hiding something. However, without evidence or absolute certainty, Andrius could only give up.
“Andrius, what are your plans next?” Registus continued to ask.
Andrius looked in a certain direction and said slowly, “Wait. We’ll wait for the Progenitor Emperor to make the first move.”
Wait? Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Registus asked in shock, “Andrius, are you sure that the Progenitor Emperor will take action so impatiently?”
The Progenitor Emperor had been lurking for more than two hundred years. He remained hidden and waited until the Insect Ruler was dead, Old Hagstorm was missing, and Andrius almost
annihilated the ancient martial families before only coming out to reap all the rewards...
From this, his rare mental toughness and meticulous thinking could be seen.
“Of course.” Andrius looked at Registus and smiled faintly. “It’s because except for Norvin’s, the pendants in his hands are all fake!”
“Fake?” Registus already knew about the pendants, but he could not help but exclaim in surprise when he heard they were fake.
Wow.
Despite having plotted for so many years, the Progenitor Emperor was deceived at the most critical moment.
“Besides...” Andrius waited for Registus to digest the information before continuing, “Even if all the six pendants in his hands were real, the last pendant is still in my hands.
“If I’m not mistaken, he must currently be studying the mystery of those pendants. Once he makes a discovery, he’ll begin his final action. Of course, he’ll soon discover that those pendants are all fake. When that time comes, he’ll be unable to contain his impatience and will act hastily.”
Andrius’ analysis was logical and reasonable, convincing Registus. He quickly asked, “What should we do then, Andrius? We can’t just sit back and wait, right?”
Andrius said, “What we need to do now is quickly complete our preparations and control the economic layout of Florence. That way, we won’t be flustered when things go down.”
“Yes.” Registus nodded in agreement. “Have your people in Sumeria focus on the development of the business guild. Special times call for special measures.”
“I’ve already instructed them secretly.”
With the emperor’s approval, it would not be hard for the business guild to develop.
“What about everything else?” Registus continued to ask, “What other arrangements have you made?”
“Other than that... The biggest unstable factor is that we don’t know the Progenitor Emperor’s actual strength.” Andrius’ expression flashed grimly. “If he truly far surpasses me, it’ll be difficult to capture him in the end even if our plans are solid.
“Thus, I plan to go into seclusion for a while and cultivate the legacy left by the Demon Emperor. Registus, do you have a secret chamber that’s absolutely safe?”
“Yes!” Registus answered and led the way in a certain direction.
Andrius followed closely.
A while later, they arrived at a mysterious place. Even Andrius found the aura here extremely strange and complex. It was indescribably weird.
While he was wondering...
Whoosh...
Andrius detected a flash, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
