Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 1008 Holes Everywhere

Anise couldn't understand it at all.

She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then grabbed a pen and paper, preparing to write a letter as well.

Some things might be because her sources of intelligence were all from cults, which made her approach a bit too one-dimensional.

But Agnes knew whose intelligence sources were the most comprehensive.

After all, she herself was one of their intelligence intermediaries.

I just don't know when this letter will arrive; their communication is a bit slow these days.

There's no way around it; people have gone mad because of that maze.

Regardless of whether you have the opportunity or not, if you're nearby, you should give it a try.

Especially in the chaotic zone, almost all intelligence personnel went to the Kingdom of Emilia Highlands.

Anise's intelligence network is not like the Tower Cultists, who can't even enter the labyrinth.

Rather, generally speaking, as long as you have money, you can accurately reach the wealth church.

Although this line of work involves all sorts of people, there shouldn't be any problems as long as it's just delivering messages.

Whether the contents of the letter can be kept secret depends on the skill of the messenger and the authority of the recipient.

Anise suddenly laughed.

For now, her presence as the recipient is sufficiently intimidating.

However, when faced with something as significant as a maze, the members of the Church of Wealth would never stay put to receive or send mail.

While the labyrinth of wealth may not offer many opportunities, it can lead to true wealth.

The Goddess of Wealth is incredibly wealthy; every treasure trove she finds starts with gold.

If they succeed just once, they can earn a year's salary... Given their nature as believers in wealth, they would never give up such a good opportunity.

So, we can only hope that things will end soon on Emilia's side.

But this is nothing to rush.

Since the Lord of the Tower has allowed his earthly body to reproduce, it means that the seal can be maintained for at least another eight years.

Although the gods have already begun their actions, eight years is still quite a long time for humanity to prepare.

Anise can only plan many things on a three-year timeframe... and that's only because her subordinates are relatively stable!

No force can rely solely on the dozen or so people around its leader to get things done.

These people are indeed the backbone, but they lack substance and are actually incapable of getting anything done.

Anise's flesh was still quite firm; after all, although she was known for her bloodthirstiness, she was only stripping the flesh of her enemies.

However, other forces in the secret realm, including the towers of those witches, strongly supported the infighting among the lower classes.

They only like the victors and don't care whether the flesh and blood are strong enough.

What's wrong with being loose? As long as it's bulky enough, that's fine.

But to ask these bloated flesh and blood to do something serious is a joke.

The Bloody Tower was able to rise to prominence because Anise's subordinates remained unchanged for three years, and new recruits to the tower had opportunities for promotion without having to kill their superiors.

Of course, perhaps hundreds of years from now, her tower will be completely unrecognizable.

But Anise doesn't need to think about that right now.

Moreover, although she hadn't had many comfortable days since childhood, she had never lacked money.

Even the lowest-ranking subordinates receive a proper salary from Anise... unlike the other towers, who only receive a basic salary barely enough to eat and drink.

If you want to live a better life, you have to work hard to find something to do.

Tsk~ No matter how big the Tower Secret Realm is, it's just a small city. Plus, with all sorts of forces vying for power, the territory is all fixed. Where are there so many lucrative jobs to be had?
Then we have to work hard to create 'jobs'?
Ha~ Anise doesn't quite understand this approach. After all, the Tower's power may lack resources, but it certainly doesn't lack money.

None of us have done anything good outside; the gold and silver jewelry are all accounted for in warehouses.

Why make your subordinates live such a precarious life?

If we need a reference point, aren't those people on the periphery who can't even get into the central area the best reference point?

Why must they create a life-or-death crisis within their own ranks?
No matter what problems the Gezar family has, they are still a legitimate noble family in the North. As a direct descendant, Anise has known how to manage her subordinates since she was a child. She can understand the practice of dividing subordinates into different ranks to motivate those at the bottom to move up and those at the middle to work hard to avoid being dragged down. But she cannot understand why it is so difficult for her subordinates to even survive.

What's the point of going through all that trouble to gather manpower?

Training people doesn't require any effort or money!

But in the evil camp, there are too few people like her.

After all, Anise's obsession was somewhat elusive, which ironically made her retain more rationality, giving her enough patience to wait.

Just like now, she can pin her hidden curiosity on a letter that may never receive a response.

But most evil people can't do that; they just want immediate results... As for whether the results are the most appropriate, who cares?

"I'll talk about it after I'm done." Anise took out her stamp, stamped it on the letter, and watched it disappear into the small dimensional portal, still somewhat bewildered by her own special abilities.

She simply stared at the passage, a smirk playing on her lips: This tiny dimensional portal, only ten centimeters long and one centimeter high, capable of opening in the secret realm of the tower—did it originate from the worshippers of wealth lurking within the tower's secret realm? Or was it hidden among the worshippers of the Church of Wealth within the tower…?

Did those two gods also have some tacit understanding, and neither of them cared about the existence of this thing?

If it truly exists, then is the Goddess of Wealth, who has always stood behind the Goddess of Night, harboring ulterior motives, or has she received the tacit approval of the Goddess of Night?

Some things, once you think about them deeply, can reveal ripples hidden beneath the surface.

Anise only hoped that what she perceived was true.

In that case, her choice would be the most correct future.

"Hmm?" Is it about to end?

Alexis gripped the window frame and glanced outside.

Queen Louise of Emilia has flown over the labyrinth, her expression serious.

Alexandra tilted her head and thought for a moment, then she understood the reason.

According to the consistent principles of the Church of the Night, if the highest-ranking person guards the temple, then the successor must be brave enough to fight.

Regardless of whether the temple is the most dangerous or not, this rule cannot be changed.

Therefore, either the heirs to the territory will fight to the death again, or the lord of the territory will lead the charge.

In order to prevent the future of their own territory from falling, others will naturally fight desperately... otherwise, what good will come of it if they go back?
Even if the lord is reasonable, she has no future at all!

Even if the one left behind is an heir, she still won't be kind to someone who failed to protect their parents... Would she be so foolish as to make people think she'd be happy to see this outcome?

Although this principle seems harsh, in ancient times, and during the White Dragon invasion, the Church of the Night relied on this principle to preserve all its territory.

Of course, it also protected the vast majority of believers.

Even the Storm Country hasn't achieved this level of achievement.

After all, although the Lord of Storms is very powerful, he is also unable to be in two places at once.

His followers, after all, are like the wind of freedom. Even though most of them have their limits, there are always those who go too far with their freedom.

Although the Lord of Storms will eventually settle accounts,... what has happened cannot be undone.

Although the Night Cultists are annoyingly arrogant wherever they go, their pride is not unfounded.

That's what they fought and risked their lives for generation after generation.

In the labyrinth in the North, the foreign forces and the tower were caught off guard.

Although her unexpected actions prevented the Tower Lord from being completely kept in the dark, Alexandra still knew her master quite well... If the Tower Lord had really known so much beforehand, she would never have let her contact with Yuri be so easy.

It was even less likely that she would discover the existence of these two children together.

If this is the child the Tower Lord anticipated, he will surely monitor him from beginning to end.

The little gap that Arigus unexpectedly gained was because the Tower Lord at the time was busy arranging for some of his less dirty subordinates to quickly enter the labyrinth to take a look.

There are always some people who feel that the gray areas they inhabit offer more freedom, so they dare to accept money from anyone and take on tasks from anyone.

Ha~ If it were that easy, the adventurer faction wouldn't be in this situation now.

Who can guarantee that they won't be tainted by the color when working with black?
What's the difference between grayish-black and black?
Alexandra once fantasized that after she broke free from the control of the Tower Lord, she would remain in the Gray Zone.

Unfortunately, once she actually entered the Black stronghold, she realized that maintaining her pure grayness was just as difficult.

In reality, the true backbone of the gray area is entirely composed of people in the gray and white spheres.

In that case, she might as well be a gray layer with a dyed edge in white!
Therefore, once you reach the labyrinth of Emilia, many of those so-called gray beings will definitely enter.

Tsk~ I wonder what benefits he received that he dared to provoke even Emilia, the 'Lightning of Light'.

That guy has accumulated at least thirty years of thunder bombs, enough to blow up more than half of the Tower's secret realm!
It's estimated that quite a few people will die.

Then, after seeing Queen Louise's sudden, broad smile, Alexis became even more certain.

Whatever those guys were planning, at least in Emilia City, they failed.

That's good, then she can stay here peacefully for three years... maybe even eight!
Emilia's basic education is really good.

"Lori!" Mrs. Agris called out, waving the letter in her hand.

Lori lifted her head from the pit, which was more than ten meters deep, and looked at her mother's head in the sunlight. Feeling a little dizzy, she asked, "What happened?"

After they had been digging the pit for a while, the mother and son slightly changed their work process.

Lori dug it up from below and threw it up, while Agris moved it to a more distant spot.

In this way, Agris would have some free time to go outside and handle some daily affairs.

Previously, in order to make the most of their time, they would only go out twice a day, taking the opportunity to tidy themselves up and eat something.

As for Lowry, he usually only intervenes when it comes to big matters.

There are no major issues in Qingfeng Territory at the moment.
