Alien world

Chapter 1585 219. Disclosure
There was no need for Annan to teach Olmedo how to "use" Lilith, she automatically thought of how to let Lilith take over various departments.

Lilith's "participation in politics" is undoubtedly a win-win situation.

For Liberty City, a tower spirit is better at governing public affairs.

For officials, they can get rid of the heavy and complicated affairs and no longer have to search for needles in the haystack of intelligence and data.

For citizens, with Lilith's participation, supervision and distribution will be fairer.

For Annan, he can now slack off without any worries. He no longer has to slack off while feeling guilty as before when everyone else is busy.

Even for Lilith herself, being needed more can help her maintain her emotions.

As for Olmedo, it seems that she can finally give herself a little break.

Annan, who was clear-minded, walked out of the city lord's mansion, found the Skeleton King, and told it the news that the evil potion was useful.

"Soul strengthening potion."

"Oh, can you make a few more bottles of this soul-strengthening potion?" Annan looked at the Skeleton King eagerly.

Although people have been sent to Silver City to look for it, there is still a small chance of failure. For example, Silver City is not the same as Platinum City, and the believers may not be human.

Instead of just waiting, it would be better to get a few more bottles of soul strengthening potions and find a few more believers to locate them.

"I'm afraid not."

The Skeleton King's knuckles rubbed the lower jaw of his skull, as if he was thinking and pondering: "The evil potion requires one hundred pure and flawless virgin hearts, fifty ounces of young unicorn blood, ten paladin souls, three silver dragon heart scales, and finally a tear of despair from unrequited love, in order to be refined."

Faced with the Skeleton King's ridicule, Annan could only laugh dryly.

However, the materials for refining soul strengthening potions are indeed difficult to gather in a short period of time.

"The potion lasts for three to four hours, Annan, you can try again."

"I tried it. When I woke up, I wanted to go back to sleep, but I was rejected..." Annan was helpless. It seemed that he could only enter the fog once a day. "It seems that I can only wait."

After talking about divinity, Annan talked about the princess's recovery.

"She is now about the same age as a ten-year-old child. Sometimes she sits there alone and thinks. Can we start unlocking her memory?"

"That's about right. Are you sure you don't want to let her enjoy her childhood for a while?"

"I would like to maintain the status quo. The princess has a heavy burden on her shoulders and should take some time to rest... But I'm worried that she will blame me in the future."

Just as the princess carries Strange City on her back, Annan also carries Free City on his back, so he can understand her thoughts to a great extent - this is their hard work, the sustenance of their hearts, and the destination of their souls.

"What did the princess say to you when her soul left?"

Annan shook his head.

The Skeleton King then said, "That means she has entrusted her body to you. It is up to you to decide."

Annan took a deep breath and said, "You are right... Then let's wait for a while. Once I have dealt with the believers, I will start to awaken the princess' memory."

In times of war, the princess who has recovered her memory will become his best ally. Even if the princess has nothing, with her reputation, she can summon a large number of knights who once defended the city of Stranger Things together.

Annan returned to the tree in the other world, gently stroked the princess's long hair, and whispered: "I hope you don't blame me..."

The princess obviously wouldn't blame Annan, but would the new memories make her blame him for losing a complete childhood?
At dawn, the streets of Liberty City were bustling with activity. A figure covered in a cloak came into the garden of the City Lord's Mansion in the morning light.

"Lord Annan, the investigation has yielded results." "Finally..."

Annan almost forgot about it.

But it’s not that slow actually. Yingge has always kept in touch with the Shadow Brotherhood, and the investigation was actually done with their help.

"It's all thanks to you. Without the help of the tower spirit, I would have to find useful information in such a large amount of intelligence."

Olmedo is very efficient. He decided to let Lilith participate last night, and the various departments have already started using her during the day - Annan guessed that she still didn't get some rest last night.

Taking the list, Annan glanced at it and saw a long list of names.

"Did you give the wrong one? Is this the list of recently 'imported' prisoners?"

Ying Ge said seriously: "This is Professor Griffin's past that you asked me to investigate..."

The smile disappeared from Annan's face. He looked at the densely arranged names and his expression gradually became solemn.

……

puff--

The semi-synthetic product in the potion cup was completely ruined because Tiel's hand was shaking and a drop of alchemical liquid fell out.

Failed again...

Tyr's face was filled with pain. He had been trying to produce the energy potion for three days, but the failure rate remained high, far lower than the average pass rate of alchemy apprentices.

"Don't be discouraged. It will take a qualified alchemy apprentice more than three months to achieve a stable output of energy potions," Griffin consoled.

Different from Professor Swarlow's education method of frustration, deducting points, and staring at you with sarcastic remarks, Professor Griffin mainly uses encouragement - students like Griffin's classes more when they are in college.

He has a gentle attitude and is willing to share everything he knows. He is even more willing to teach students who are eager for knowledge and truly treats them as his own students.

Griffin continued to walk around the long tables in the alchemy room, occasionally pointing out the students' mistakes in gentle whispers.

"Thank you, Professor Griffin."

After turning around and around, at some point, Griffin raised his head and looked at Annan Reeves, who he had been looking at for an unknown amount of time.

Without disturbing the students, Griffin quietly walked out of the alchemy room and closed the door gently.

"Lord Annan, are you here to inquire about the progress?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Griffin felt an invisible spell locking onto him - it was the power from the Mage Tower.

In addition to Annan's gloomy face and the expressionless face of Legion Commander Losi beside him, Griffin had some guesses.

"Griffin, I have some information here."

Annan spoke, his deep black eyes staring coldly at Griffin: "Half a month ago, several disappearances occurred in the princess' territory, and the murderer has not been found yet. Three months ago, the residents of a village in the Kingdom of Rockhan disappeared, but the livestock and property were not taken away. Eight months ago, all members of the Pomegranate Lake Thieves Group disappeared, and someone found traces of high-level spells. Fifteen months ago, a large number of citizens and nobles in the Principality of Keating disappeared for no reason. They did not escape the shadow of war, but disappeared..."

"What's 'coincidental' is that these cases correspond to your itinerary. Wherever you go, the number of missing persons will surge."

"Professor Griffin, can you tell me...what you did with those missing people?"
