Game Transmigration: Saving the World Again 1000 Years Later (ON-HOLD)

Chapter 90: Walking in the Shadows

The tower guardian's eyes instantly turned sharp when she heard the words 'Mad Box.'

She was still musing that it would be fine as long as there were no problems with the seal in the last month of her term, but what she was worried about seemed imminent.

For a moment, she even wanted to inform the people in charge of the fortress area to hold a combat meeting.

No...

This impulsive thought only lasted for a moment before the tower guardian quickly calmed down.

To ensure that the Mad Box's seal wasn't used by people with ulterior motives, the matter of Demon General Mania sealed under the Astral Lighthouse in Blacklight City had always been top secret. Over the years, even Thorn City's Rose Palace didn't know.

Now that she had heard the words "Mad Box" from the envoy, regardless of whether the Gift Church was trying to undo the seal as he said, it at least proved that this secret had been leaked.

"How do you know about this?" she asked solemnly. As she spoke, she even used the mana in the Astral Lighthouse to create pressure.

Massive amounts of mana turned into invisible pressure that stacked over the man in front of her. Even a Legendary domain powerhouse would reveal an uncomfortable expression, but the person in front of her didn't even frown.

"We weren't aware of this until we learned from documents that the members of the Gift Church's Mage Hall failed to destroy in time, so we specially came to warn you," the other party replied with a calm expression.

There was indeed nothing wrong with this explanation. Moreover, she couldn't see any flaws in the other party's expression.

After all, he had thrown the blame onto the Gift Church.

As for how the Gift Church knew about the seal, why they wanted to undo it, and how they wanted to break through the impregnable garrison here...

He didn't even mention these details as if he didn't know anything.

In any case, he had already distanced himself from this matter. He was only here to inform her of this matter.

No matter what choice the Astral Lighthouse made in the future, it was their decision and had nothing to do with them.

Tricks... the tower guardian thought.

So what if the other party could provide evidence? He had already said that they only had written information to prove this matter, and it was easy to fake written information.

If she really only listened to this person's one-sided story and immediately ordered the forces in the fortress to eliminate the Gift Church, it would be exactly what Thorn City wanted. She would be used as a tool.

"Then, please go back and tell His Excellency Vincent that we are very grateful for his warning. We will continue to increase our vigilance against the Mad Box seal and won't give the Gift Church a chance," the tower guardian replied.

In other words, we will continue tightening our strength to ensure the safety of the seal. As for purging the Gift Church, don't count on it.

Indeed, for the first time, the other party's expression changed when he heard her words.

"Is this really appropriate? It's equivalent to giving up the initiative to the other party if all you do is tighten your strength and not take the initiative to resolve the latent dangers," the other party said in a deep voice.

Regarding this, the tower guardian—who had completely seen through his trick—sneered and said,

"If you knew how strong our defense of that seal is, you definitely wouldn't have such thoughts."
