Chapter 2012: Magic Bloodline Family

"The Spiritwind Family of Yierlan has actually been exposed as having nearly half its members be Demon Descendants!"

"Yierlan? Demon Descendants?"

Upon first hearing this news, Xia Duo was truly quite surprised. After repeatedly confirming it with Bulundesi, he had to admit that his previous speculation about Yierlan being controlled by Demon Descendants really did have the possibility of becoming reality!

One must know that this time it was not just individual Demon Descendants being discovered occasionally, but nearly half of a major family becoming Demon Descendants. This could no longer be called infiltration; it was simply a Magic Bloodline Family!

What was even more critical was that only the Spiritwind Family had been exposed in Yierlan so far; how many more were there that had yet to be discovered!

When Bulundesi arrived at the Floating City, Xia Duo did not even ask about the results of the other party's promotion of the Siluwende war aftermath handling plan, but instead asked about the specific details of the Spiritwind Family's discovery the very first moment.

Regarding this, Bulundesi shook his head with quite a bit of regret, "The only news we have received at present is that the Spiritwind Family possesses a large number of Demon Descendants. As for how they were exposed, it is temporarily unclear."

"Unclear? Then how can it be confirmed that this news is true?"

"The moment the news was received, the Seven Towers side confirmed it with the Yierlan Ambassador. The news is true, but the other party is unwilling to disclose more details."

Speaking of this, Bulundesi hesitated for a moment, then stated a speculation, "We suspect that it might be the Demon Descendants choosing to expose themselves voluntarily in order to achieve some goal."

"Voluntarily expose themselves?" Xia Duo seemed to have thought of something.

His thoughtful appearance actually caused Bulundesi to misunderstand, and he revealed another piece of news, "Just now, when Siluwende requested aid from the Northland Alliance, they reported a situation, saying that they had captured a group of spellcasters suspected of being Demon Descendants. Lord Xia Duo has been here the whole time, so you should have some understanding of this, right?"

"Yes, I saw it. If Councilor Bulundesi looks up, perhaps you can still see those few mysterious spellcasters who have been restricted."

"Look up?"

Bulundesi did not react at first, then realized that Xia Duo was talking about Adofeier Fortress below the Floating City. It was just that the space of the Floating City had undergone transformation, so for those located within it, Adofeier Fortress could also be said to be above.

At this time, the Floating City was only a few hundred meters away from the upper plaza of Adofeier Fortress. One could see some blurry details just by looking, but for a spellcaster, the Magic Aura might be even more obvious.

Bulundesi quickly noticed a clear gathering point of aura at the edge of the plaza, and by casting a long-distance vision spell, he discovered eight or nine Gold Elves dressed in Siluwende attire.

"Are those the Demon Descendants?" Bulundesi asked doubtfully.

"Not yet certain, but I guess there is a high probability that at least one Demon Descendant exists."

In reality, that restricted area was not only affected by Adofeier Fortress, but was also simultaneously affected by the Floating City's war spell 【Wide-Area Prohibition】.

Otherwise, with the importance Xia Duo placed on Demon Descendants, he would have long since brought them back to the Floating City.

Of course, not bringing them back also had a bit of a "suspicious" worry; as long as it was ensured that those Gold Elves would not run away or have any accidents, where they were detained was actually not that important.

"Why is Lord Xia Duo so certain that there must be Demon Descendants in there?"

"It is not certain, it is a guess that there is a high probability." Xia Duo shook his head, pointing out the error in Bulundesi's words.

He would not leave any handle for outsiders. If this were to be taken as being involved with Demon Descendants, then there would be trouble. Especially right now, as the Floating City had just appeared, it was inevitable that some people would be jealous, and throwing mud became the cheapest means of targeting.

Subsequently, Xia Duo also gave his own explanation: "Just when Yierlan and Siluwende were fighting at a critical moment, that group of mysterious spellcasters suddenly jumped out. I think they surely couldn't have been sent by the Northland Alliance to interfere in the war!"

Seeing that Xia Duo did not want to talk more on the topic of identifying Demon Descendants, Bulundesi changed the subject and talked about business: "By the way, speaking of Northland Alliance interference, has Lord Xia Duo met Mage Tailun?"

"Mage Tailun? That 'Hand of Justice' of King Luoruian of Yierlan?"

"Yes, it is him! At the recent official meeting of the Northland Alliance, the Yierlan Envoy was very active. Before the various countries had even discussed specifically how to interfere, they had already prepared for interference, and the executor is Mage Tailun."

"So that's how it is!"

Xia Duo's previous speculation had some deviations. The one with the most opinions on Yierlan and the most ideas about interfering in this battle was not Keman, but Yierlan.

However, this was not hard to understand. The Orc Tide might just be an incentive; the biggest problem between Yierlan and Yierlan was probably that they were too close, and it was inevitable that there would be some friction.

And between Keman and Yierlan, there was still a Netheril, as well as a large area of so-called "Nether Territory". "Befriend distant states and attack those nearby" was not something only humans on Earth could think of; the magic world could also give birth to such thoughts.

After a moment of thought, Xia Duo told Bulundesi, "I have not seen Mage Tailun. Perhaps they were delayed on the road!"

It had to be said that a High Mage being delayed on the road was truly a super cold joke, but in Bulundesi's view, this might actually be the truth:

"Not long ago, the Northland Alliance monitored a large number of Supermagic Events, and the Seven Towers also sent people to investigate, but looking at it now, those investigators did not come to Siluwende, and it even affected Mage Tailun because of this."

"Now, instead, I, an outsider, am the first to know the truth behind those Supermagic Events."

"Is that so? I didn't deliberately hide it either!"

Xia Duo spread his hands, appearing somewhat helpless. When he invited the Yierlan Mage to the Floating City, he had already stated his identity to the other party, and letting Naris go afterward was the same.

But it seemed that those Elves who had contact with him had not received news related to the Supermagic Events. Correspondingly, they probably only reported the human interveners and ignored the existence of the Supermagic Events.

After all, the battlefield itself was a large-scale Supermagic Event; they were already insensitive to this, and they did not feel there was anything wrong with having one more Floating City.

"Since that is the case, please ask Councilor Bulundesi to help contact the representatives of all parties. I am worried that misunderstandings will cause them to continue to be late. With only our side here, it is somewhat lacking in legitimacy."

"Okay, I will contact them right away."

After speaking, Bulundesi seemed to remember something, took out a stack of documents and a Badge from his Dimensional Bag, and handed them to Xia Duo, "These are the identity documents for the Peacekeeping Personnel after the Northland Alliance resolution, as well as the verification Badge, similar to the previous Observer ones. Please keep them safe, Lord Xia Duo."

"Mm, thank you to the Seven Towers for helping to handle this matter and resolving the hidden dangers for me."

"Lord Xia Duo is too polite. This matter is also very beneficial to the Seven Towers. It is just that Lord Huo En still asked me to remind you that this action will not only attract the attention of the Elves, but not everyone in the country is happy to see this either. Be careful in everything. No matter what the situation, Jilan Tower is Lord Xia Duo's most steadfast ally."

The most steadfast ally was not necessarily true, but Xia Duo was still very grateful for the goodwill expressed by Huo En.
