Dingdang!

The crisp sound of metal collision sounded in the quiet reception room, and the metal piece, which symbolized the "English Eye", was sent to the table in front of Curt by Cruise François.

The shiny metal sheet is made of a silver-like material, but the luster is a bit different. This is not a mass-produced badge made by melt casting. It should be a carefully made magic item. A trace of magic that can be felt from the thin metal sheet.

On the silver surface the size of a thumbnail of the metal sheet, the manufacturer used fine techniques to draw three blue borders. After careful look, they were not just a few simple lines, but lines condensed from complex patterns. The red "eyes" in the center should have used high-priced red crystal stone as the core of the badge. Through the slightly raised surface of the metal sheet, the glow revealed on the inside makes the "eyes" glow red with a red glow.

"Haha, it is worthy of being an organization directly under the academy. A mere mark is so big." Li Qi, who saw this mark through the soul connection, saw it at a glance that it is valuable and smiled sarcastically, "I don't know how much gold this organization has eaten in these years."

Curt also had this feeling. It was obviously a small piece of metal, but it made him feel that it might be much more expensive than the luxurious jewelry decorative in jewelry stores. This was just simply calculating the price required for these materials. If the manufacturing process was included, I don’t know where the price would rise.

Curt looked at Cruise François, and his laziness finally shone with seriousness. The topic he threw out finally made him smell a worthy smell: "What do you mean is that you who organized a group of monsters to rob the warehouse street a few days ago? I think it's not."

The "English Eyes" with the academy as the backing will not cause trouble in spell casting materials, nor is it necessary to plunder the tools and materials. There are only a few cases that can make them commit excessive violence - from the information proposed by Cruise François.

However, this so-called "very rare situation" last happened decades ago. As the reformists became increasingly powerful, the activities of "Editor's Essence" gradually turned into academic research. Its members have not made extreme actions for any purpose for a long time.

It should be said that they have no need to use violence for a certain purpose.

"It's interesting, Mr. Ryanster. You don't seem to doubt me." Cruise François knocked on the table and looked at Curt with a little playful look. "Don't you think I'm probably cheating you. The information you provide is just 'I want you to see'?"

"That's of course. Since the 'Twelve Directions Wind' has revealed the information about his 'English Knowledge Purpose', then I believe this organization is now at a level that even if it is exposed to the public, it will not have any impact. And if such a huge organization has any obvious actions, the Mercenary Management Office and the Guard Team will not be unheard of this."

Curt had a smile on his face and looked at the other person without any concession.

He asked himself to sit upright and leaned forward slightly: "Then, the topic that was introduced can end here. Please explain the reason for calling me here. As for those groups that also use 'eyes' as their mark, I guess you should already know their identities."

Curt could have seen more than anything that Cruise François wanted to entrust him. The "Enique Eye" with eyes as a mark has existed in Catris for a long time, hidden in the shadow of the big tree of the academy, and they have never been noticed by the public.

Perhaps in the past when the struggle between the reformists and the conservatives was fierce, they chose to pursue elitism and secretism in order to protect the lives and safety of members of the organization. However, when the reformists have fully gained an advantage, they still retained this form, just following their usual habits.

In that robbery on Warehouse Street, their habits became a means for some people to transfer the investigators’ targets. The other party knew the existence of the “English Purpose” and tried to transfer the targets of the investigation to them to block the direction of their actions.

"It's a pity that I didn't find any exact information about the true identity of those who impersonate our names. This is what I'm going to entrust you, Mr. Leinster." Cruise François did not give the answer Curt wanted, "I hope you can find out the identities of those people and investigate their purpose and why they should impersonate our names."

Curt couldn't help but frown at this answer.

It is understandable if the security forces are in trouble, because their intelligence network is actually not as developed as the Mercenary Management Office. However, even the "Twelve Directions" and his talent dispatch failed to investigate the identities of those people, which is a bit incredible.

"It's not right to say that there is no news, but it may take a while to put it carefully... Just listen to me a few words."

The smile he had been maintaining dissipated like a phantom. Curt didn't know what kind of past he remembered. Cruise François began to tell Curt about the group pretending to be "English-Knowing" and the commissioned matters this time.

"Hundreds of years ago, those who came here from the empire located in the Old Continent were almost undisciplined loose groups called adventurers and pioneers. Even though the number was not large, these pioneers already contained seeds of the conservatives and reformists."

He said.

"Maybe they disagree, but they still reclaimed undeveloped land together, made streets, established settlements, and opened colleges... and then after the efforts to rectify production, politics, education, etc., they finally formed the foundation of the autonomous territory that is sufficient to support the current prosperous development. These are the main components of the autonomous territory's 'order'."

The "English Mind" by the dean of the college was founded by Schuy Grostester. The original purpose of the "Silver Dragon King" to establish this organization was not to allow them to serve reforms, but to take the study of spells further.

However, as a member of the reformist faction, it is impossible for him to separate the relationship between "English Knowledge" and reform. The pressure and siege of conservatives have repeatedly involved "English Knowledge" in it. Over time, the members who were originally researchers had to become warriors.

This situation did not end after his death. The "English Eye" organization eventually inherited the ideas of Schuy Grostester. When they explored new English Ethics, they did not forget to convey these new things to those who needed it - they became vanguards of the advocates of reformers.

"If the historical experience is like this, then from the results, you should have won."

Curt interrupted Cruise François.

"The Empire, one of the victors of the Great War, began to make a comprehensive reform - the reformists came to power on the empire, and even the emperor himself was a supporter of the reformists." He responded with well-known facts, "I think the 'Engine' of the Eyes' should no longer exist as a warrior. In this case, the 'Engine' can exist as a research group according to the original intention of the Silver Dragon King."

"You said it right, so we deal with it," Cruise François nodded, "It's only a matter of time before the conservatives are weakening little by little. However, in recent times, the problem of crime has appeared in an abnormal number. I am worried that some conservatives who are unwilling to lose their power are operating in secret."

This is not just what he is worried about. Curt and Liqi are also involved in this matter because they are worried that they will have problems in their current life in order to seek past benefits. In this way, the two parties who have not contacted before unexpectedly thought of the same possibility.

"After the end of the previous war, the stability of the Dominic lord had changed. Most of the new people from the old continent were poor people who were suffering from living problems. Moreover, due to the war, in addition to the imperial people, there were also various people who came to the Dominic lord with different ideas and built corresponding living spaces here according to their own culture. And there were various 'groups' coming with them."

It is better to call their organization a "gang" than to call it a "gang".

Now in the city of Katris, there are indeed "gangs" organized by people from all over the world.

The gangsters from Lalenia are smuggling antiquities from all over the world, while the gangsters in Yanita are making a contraband called "spice", and then the most powerful Slot mafia is making and selling various contrabands. These "groups" develop in the darkness of Katris.

Correspondingly, in order to punish criminals, the government has been improving the law step by step, but this still cannot stop the bloody rules that prevail on the dark streets at night. Private revenge and professional killers exist in this city at the same time. If it weren't for the efforts of the guards, the city might have seen incomplete bodies on the streets every day.

"This is not what we want to see as 'change'." He sighed a long time ago, "The only thing that is to be thankful is probably what the citizens want, neither the old order that the conservatives talk about, nor the chaos in the dark world, but the desire for a new thing that can be replaced."

It was not impossible for Curt to understand Cruise François's sense of helplessness at this time. The reformers took a long time to defeat their enemies and happily occupied the sand table, but found that many bugs had already crawled into the sand table while they were fighting each other. The enemy who should have been defeated might be manipulating these "worms" behind their backs for their own interests.
