In the underground passage,

Lis, hidden in the shadows, opened his eyes and let out a sigh of relief.

Honestly, the process of controlling Eliza to explore the Forbidden Fortress Donovan was rather thrilling.

Although Eliza's identity was quite concealed, if she were discovered by the Dark Elf Queen Spine, or even the Spider Queen Rose, it would all have been for naught.

Of course, there were some minor accidents during the entire process.

Fortunately, Lis gained some understanding of Donovan and the Dark Elf's ways through Eliza, specially preparing various excuses, which prevented Spine from getting suspicious.

Moreover, because Eliza was "injured," she was left to guard the divine artifact [Pastom's Stomach] in the Spider Heart Temple's underground.

This was a rather rare opportunity for Lis.

For this reason, Lis specifically controlled Eliza, allowing her wounds to heal slower, to delay as much time as possible.

If, upon returning, he could successfully seize [Pastom's Stomach] at the first opportunity, he would stand invincible.

However, currently, Lis does not plan to take the risk alone.

Although quite confident in his strength, formally attacking the Forbidden Fortress Donovan will surely draw the attention of the Spider Queen Rose.

Even with the obstruction and limitation of the Gaia Main World, he doesn't want to face this Evil God alone.

As such, Lis naturally seeks more allies.

When the time comes, someone can stand in front of Lis to draw attention.

However, finding extraordinary forces that can oppose the Spider Queen Rose and are willing to help Lis... isn't too hard.

This matter certainly involves the Pan-Continent Mage Association, but Lis does not intend to first report the situation to the association here.

The association's power is sufficient.

Not to mention, bringing over a Floating City.

As long as the Spider Queen Rose doesn't act personally, even the divine artifact [Pastom's Stomach] cannot stop an attack from the Floating City.

However, the Dark Elf's previous series of performances made Lis somewhat suspicious.

Although Lis did not receive any relevant intelligence from Eliza, it's certain that the Dark Elf is quite familiar with the Pan-Continent Mage Association's situation.

When coming from other places to the Underground City Donovan, Eliza received extremely detailed intelligence on the Anti-Drilling Mage Association from Spine.

Among them, the intelligence on the association's Legendary Members was quite comprehensive.

Although it couldn't compare to the intelligence Lis acquired directly from the association's Magic Intelligent Life, it's beyond what outsiders could access.

Therefore, this intelligence had to have been provided by someone inside the association to the Dark Elves.

For instance, when the [Bitter Reciter] Bren roamed the underground city before, if not for knowing that Bren wasn't adept at perceiving Shadow Stealth, Eliza wouldn't have approached so closely.

If not for knowing Bren wasn't adept at Space Transmission, Spine wouldn't just force Bren to use Space Transmission and be certain that Bren would fall into the trap set by [Pastom's Stomach].

If the target switched from Bren to Lis, Spine definitely wouldn't dare to do so.

Lis's expertise in Space Magic is inherited from the second Councilman [Judgement Flame] Stephens, surely perceiving something amiss at the moment of Space Transmission and immediately escaping.

More importantly, from the intelligence Lis received from Eliza, it was certain that before Bren, the Dark Elves hadn't captured any other Legendary Members from the association.

This eliminates the possibility of any Legendary Member being controlled by the Dark Elves and leaking intelligence.

Thus this series of circumstances is enough for Lis to be sure the Pan-Continent Mage Association... no, the Legendary Council internally has a traitor!

Someone has leaked the most important secrets of the association and violated the founding purpose of the association to cooperate with the Evil God!

This would never be forgiven within the Pan-Continent Mage Association.

However, despite the intelligence obtained from Eliza, Lis still doesn't know who the traitor leaking the intelligence is.

Recalling his previous suspicions, Lis now has a roughly suspicious range.

If the plan is proper, it might just be possible to identify these traitors through this attack on the Dark Elves!

Therefore, before preparing thoroughly, Lis doesn't want to inform the Legendary Council of this intelligence, to prevent those people from making early defenses.

Besides the Pan-Continent Mage Association, the most reliable ally likely to oppose the Dark Elves remains one.

That is the Elf Clan!

Lis's figure once again merged into the shadows of the underground city, completely hiding his aura.

At the same time, Lis's Life Avatar located in Kane Floating City also opened his eyes, the figure flashing and disappearing from the Magic Workshop.

The peculiar sealing power of [Pastom's Stomach] is indeed strange, and the communication tool specifically crafted in Lis's hand cannot function.

But this does not hinder the consciousness sharing between Lis and his avatar.

...

In Elf Country Tirion,

As the morning mist had yet to dissipate, Tirion's forest awakened from its dreams.

Dew spun atop the fern leaves, refracting colorful halos, like a glass bottle full of stardust tipped over.

Bluebells swayed gently at the roots of trees, pale purple petals with night dew, sweet fragrance mixed with the bittersweet scent of pine needles, brewed into a faintly intoxicating mist in the air.

Streams meandered through the forest, moss on the pebbles at the bottom like flowing emeralds, causing the reflection of shadows to break when fish swayed their tails, ringing with a crisp ding-dong sound when the wind brushed past, as if the whole forest was humming a morning melody.
