Chapter 963 - 730: Lanci’s Brilliant Plan for Peace_3

Talia looked at the swiftly passing messages and started chatting with Lanci as well.

"It feels like they’re the more neutral type, if Magic Energy Fission principles are of no actual use to them, it shows they’re not from the Allied Forces, and since they’re afraid of the Empire’s Special Operations Department, they’re probably not on the side of the Empire either," Lanci deduced.

"Then this guy’s business skills aren’t that great either," Talia shrugged.

[Qi Wang (Number 9): Unless you give me a very fair price, I’ll go get you the complete version today.]

Soon, Number 9 sent another sentence.

"..."

It seems their business skills can indeed be quite competent.

But it would cost extra.

Next, Number 3 was silent for a long time, possibly going to ask their boss.

Lanci thought for a moment and added a note to both Number 3 and Number 9.

After a moment,

[Blazing (Number 4): Are you guys planning to resell it or research it yourselves?]

Someone else in the group sent a message.

[Mercy (Number 3/Buyer of Information): For personal use. Can you get it, Number 4?]

Number 3 replied instantly.

It was clear that whatever Number 9 was offering would be expensive.

And number 3 seemed to have some difficulty mobilizing funds as well.

If they were going to spend such a significant amount to buy it directly, they wouldn’t need to ask for help in the group.

[Blazing (Number 4): Can’t get it. I’m just purely curious about what your boss wants with that thing. Just don’t blow up the Capital.]

[Mercy (Number 3/Buyer of Information): Don’t worry, we’re not a terrorist organization.]

"Do Number 3 and Number 4 know each other?" Talia asked Lanci.

"Possibly, they seem to talk like they’re acquainted," Lanci agreed.

The results they saw were the original version from the Elliot Building classroom, different from what Lanci had provided to the Allied spy Unity.

The version given to Unity was more simplified and had some additional annotations.

"This Number 6 couldn’t be around us, could they?"

Wearing the moniker of [Loyalty] yet decisively selling Empire secrets was quite the definition of Loyalty.

With that in mind, Number 6 might also be inside Saint Kray Temple, or at least someone with the access to enter the Monastery.

"The timing of their response is also quite delicate; like us, they were likely lurking until earlier... Number 6 might want to do a favor for Number 3, or might also be trying to stop Number 5 from doing something foolish," Lanci mused while analyzing.

Right now, all the interpersonal relationships were based on conjecture.

But in the near future, their offline meeting might be inevitable as that day’s conversation revealed that organizational members are all in this city, always probing at the core of the Empire’s operations, surely leading to intricate connections and convergences.

"What are you planning to label him?" Talia knew Lanci was thinking about how to note Number 6.

"Like this," Lanci quickly decided, and labeled Number 6 as [Loyalty (Number 6/Loyal!)].

"..."

Talia withheld her judgment.

[Mercy (Number 3/Buyer of Information): Thanks.]

[Qi Wang (Number 9/Information Peddler): So, there really is.]

[Struggle (Number 5/Little Angel): Now I’m relieved.]

After that, Number 6 didn’t make another sound, seeming quite aloof.

The others didn’t message anymore after a brief idle chat.

Lanci leaned back in his chair and thought for a while.

This was the first meeting he had witnessed since taking Land’s place in the organization.

The organization was really quite liberal, that was true, and everyone really did want to stir up trouble in the Empire, which was also true. Trading the latest Empire secrets in such an open manner, the participants all started at a minimum of eighty years.

Lanci didn’t think too much, sat up straight again, placed his hands on the desk, and started sending a private message to Number 1 using this Communication Magic Card.

This was actually the main event for the evening.

Staying in this organization, even if just lurking around doing nothing, was still quite beneficial, serving as a superb natural source of intelligence.
