"Abyss" Benjerry could not respond. Whether he admitted it or not, it would influence the other party's judgment of the Body of the Abyss.
"Does Your Excellency know that the tiers of magic do not stop at the Eighth Tier, but that Tenth Tier magic exists?"
Evileye's slightly high-pitched, androgynous voice came from behind the white mask.
—Astonishment!
"Abyss" Benjerry's two heads snapped in unison to face her. Even the four arms resting on his legs subconsciously lifted before being quickly put down again.
*Why?*
*How could they possibly know this?*
Two hundred years ago, the Inner Circle member, "White Saintess," had reached the Eighth Tier before anyone else, and she was still aiming to break through to the Ninth Tier even now.
It was only then that all the members of the organization had ignorantly realized that the power of Ninth Tier magic existed in the world.
And ever since the organization had been subjugated by that Dragon Lord.
"White Saintess" was the most valued favorite—no, that guy doesn't value anyone; he just orders them around according to his own whims!
In short.
It was only by accident that they learned that the highest tier of magic existing in the world was not the Ninth Tier—but the Tenth Tier!
Evileye narrowed her eyes, observing the change in "Abyss" Benjerry's emotions. Seeing his reaction, a trace of disappointment emerged in her heart.
*Did Lord Crimson Dragon Lord overestimate them?*
The mere news of Tenth Tier magic was enough to shock him so much that he couldn't even control his emotions.
*My previous analysis was correct,* Evileye thought to herself, her tense and serious attitude relaxing considerably.
The fact that "Tenth Tier magic exists" was extremely secret information for ordinary people, and even for a country, but an organization with the power of the Body of the Abyss should have known about it.
The only explanation for this outcome was that the means by which the Body of the Abyss gathered external information were severely limited!
"What... what are you trying to say?"
"Abyss" Benjerry was inwardly shocked, yet he couldn't quite understand why Evileye would suddenly bring this up.
Evileye organized her words and asked, "I wonder if Your Excellency has heard anything about a 'Holy Sanctuary'?"
*Holy Sanctuary?*
A trace of confusion flashed in "Abyss" Benjerry's eyes.
"Of course, it might not be called by that name. It could be a legend in a certain country, or perhaps a place."
Evileye spoke again about the content Tang Zheng had instructed her to ask:
"The country where this place is located has probably been destroyed and replaced by a new one. You can also understand it as a special magical phenomenon."
"Perhaps it is a location related to frequently held celebrations or rituals."
Evileye laid out all the possibilities at once.
After saying all this.
Evileye also felt a bit muddled, getting a sense that the more she said, the vaguer it became.
Lord Crimson Dragon Lord was clearly looking for a certain place, she just didn't know why he valued it so much.
"Abyss" Benjerry pondered this information, and a place that had once been mentioned by an outer circle member suddenly flashed through his mind.
Since its establishment, the members of the Body of the Abyss had basically been divided into two factions.
One faction consisted of undead who expanded their influence among the living and used these forces to achieve their goals. The other faction consisted of those who did not associate with the living, hiding behind the scenes of the world to quietly achieve their own objectives.
However, undead had always been the enemies of the living.
Expanding one's influence in the outside world would inevitably create enemies, so as time went on, the members of the first faction gradually dwindled.
But during that period, the organization did indeed acquire a great deal of external intelligence and information from this faction.
"I wonder why Miss Evileye is asking about this matter?"
"Abyss" Benjerry did not answer directly. Instead, he composed himself from his earlier shock, and his tone became gentle again.
He hadn't forgotten that she had first mentioned the "Dragon Lord" and then "Tenth Tier magic." This didn't seem like a casual mention.
*Eh?*
*He really knows!*
Evileye was taken aback, looking with some disbelief at "Abyss" Benjerry, who was shrouded in black Negative Energy, his four scarlet eyes glinting.
"I am asking on behalf of our Lord."
"The current situation of the Body of the Abyss is self-evident. If you can provide this information, our Lord can assist you... in grasping the power of Tenth Tier magic."
As Evileye reached the end, her voice trembled slightly.
Tenth Tier magic!
This was power that only a legendary god could master.
Evileye didn't know if Lord Crimson Dragon Lord was bluffing or if he truly possessed this ability.
*Boom!*
A shockwave erupted!
"Abyss" Benjerry shot up from his seat. An invisible wave spread out, forming an airflow that made all the furniture in the great hall creak and groan.
The already dim environment was instantly enveloped by a dense, profound Negative Energy.
"Soundproofing Barrier."
"Detection Defense."
"Isolation."
"Abyss" Benjerry raised three arms simultaneously, the mouths on his two heads opening and closing, and he actually cast three different spells in a single instant.
The fluctuation of magic power spread rapidly.
In the space of a single breath, the magic had already enveloped the entire area within a barrier.
Evileye's pupils constricted sharply, and she stared at him in utter astonishment.
*So strong!*
She had long known that his strength was by no means weaker than hers, but she never expected him to be able to cast three spells at once.
Combat between magic casters was a confrontation of magic. For him to cast three spells at once was like one person fighting against three!
"You are not joking, Your Excellency Evileye?" "Abyss" Benjerry asked excitedly, his Negative Energy aura vibrating uncontrollably as he spoke.
To fight that Dragon Lord, their Inner Circle members had held countless secret meetings to deliberate, but they still had no confidence.
If they could obtain the power of Tenth Tier magic, perhaps they could truly defeat that parasite controlling them!
"Ahem, we have no need to deceive you," Evileye said righteously, though her voice also held a trace of uncertainty.
She actually felt that for Lord Crimson Dragon Lord to offer such a reward to the other party, whether it was a deception or not, was far too generous.
"Mm, about the Holy... Holy Sanctuary you mentioned, I do know a little," "Abyss" Benjerry said with some uncertainty after a brief moment of recollection.
"However, according to the old tales, it shouldn't be called Holy Sanctuary, but Buddhist Domain."
"If I remember correctly, the people of that country seemed to believe in a deity called the Buddha God, and they also called that place 'Spirit Mountain'—a rather strange name."
