Chapter 1157 An Association Adept Visits
Fire Throne.
Since returning from Morrian Plane, Greem had spent his time hiding in his tower, other than that one trip to space.
His soul was now damaged and crippled. It was the best time for enemies who wished to take vengeance on him!
Greem would never take a single step out of the tower if he could. He would never give his enemies the chance to lay traps or assassinate him.
Unfortunately, though the tree wishes to rest in silence, the storm never stops!
On the seventh day after Greem obtained Shadow Demon, a faraway guest shattered the quiet of Fire Throne, forcing Greem to emerge from his laboratory and meet them on the second level of the tower.
The first person that Greem saw upon entering the meeting hall was the familiar Vice-Chairman Mirva.
However, this was a double-edged sword!
Alice’s own intervention in Fate had caused her assistants and allies to suffer a decent backlash from the plane as well.
The reason Alice spent most of her time in the Tower of Fate and isolating herself from the rest of the world was to avoid the Fate backlash from involving her friends and family.
In all honesty, anyone who had bad luck in life would probably die an ugly death if they became too closely associated with Alice! Greem had made many enemies over the years and had been involved in one massive war after another, often thrown into a trial of life and death every few years.
That was the fundamental reason for all of this!
Fate was unpredictable.
Fate was capricious.
It was precisely because of how unpredictable Fate was that Greem hesitated in revealing Maysa’s name to the Association adept.
“So, it is her.” Adept Beluni wasn’t surprised to hear Maysa’s name. After exchanging a few more words with Greem, he got up and left.
Once Beluni had departed from Fire Throne, Greem remained in the room for a short moment before returning to the upper levels of the tower.
The experiment was very successful!
Neither the sly and cunning Mirva nor Beluni from the Adept’s Association had discovered Shadow Demon’s existence. Of course, this also had to do with the fact that they were in Greem’s private tower and were intentionally avoiding the use of their Spirit to sense their surroundings.
However, the fact that the Shadow Demon possessed such outstanding stealth already made Greem overjoyed!
After returning to his laboratory, Greem communicated with Gargamel mentally and received more good news.
The Crimson Clan had signed a trade agreement with Molten Fire City. From now on, the Crimson Clan would be able to use dragon blood, dragon bones, dragon crystals, and other high-grade resources to trade for the Queyras alloy produced by Molten Fire City.
Given the amount agreed upon in the negotiations, Greem estimated that they could construct one magic generator furnace every two months from now on. That also meant that the Crimson Clan would gain a new mothership every two months.
It was incredibly significant for the expansion of the Crimson Clan’s power and influence!
However, just as Greem concluded his communications with Gargamel, the spirit of the tower sent him a warning about an intruder.
A strange ‘bug’ had entered his tower and was looking for something in the lower levels.
