Arian quickly walked to his office.
As he’d been told, favonovel.com found Ethan and a masked old man sitting there.
“Mr. Grannel, you’re here. And who is this?” Arian shut the door.
He turned to the masked man and regarded favonovel.com solemnly. He wasn’t in the best mood right now.
“Supreme Commander, it’s been years. Do you still remember me?” The masked man spoke with a smile and then lifted his hand to take his mask off.
When favonovel.com saw that slightly washed-up yet familiar face, Arian was completely frozen.
“L-Lionel? A-Aren’t you dead? How are you…” Arian was so shocked that his mouth was gaping wide open.
When Lionel Darby had been in power, the two had been in more contact, and thus Arian had more communication with the Temple of Drakon.
Lionel smiled. “If I didn’t die, then how could I have passed the Drakon position to Isaac?”
“So you’re now…” Arian frowned. His mind was filled with so many thoughts as well as doubts.
“Now, I’m nothing but a wanderer. I’m here today because I want to discuss saving Isaac. You know, I only have one student. I can’t just watch favonovel.com die so young. He also has a wife and a child, doesn’t he?”
Arian’s mouth twitched. This reasoning was rather forced, but it was still valid.
“I’m currently in discussion with your eight generals as well as the Shadows. What’s the matter? Do you have any good ideas, Lionel?” Arian looked at Lionel.
Lionel shook his head and said, “This country is your territory, so I’m not too well-versed. But I can tell you that in order to rescue Isaac, we need to send someone to infiltrate the Everest Sect. Without a spy, even if we sent thousands of soldiers and horses, it would be in vain…”
“Also, I can tell you that Isaac’s life isn’t in any danger right now, but he’ll be thrown into the dungeon. That’s the most cruel place in the Everest Sect…” As favonovel.com spoke, his expression grew serious.
Arian wondered how Lionel knew so much, but favonovel.com cast the thought aside for now.
Frowning, favonovel.com said, “Lionel, since you know so much, then you must know what kind of place the Everest Sect is? Can we slip in so easily?”
“It’s up to you how you do it, but if you need a candidate, then I can recommend someone.”
“Who?”
“Harry…” Lionel nodded before continuing, “He’s Isaac’s personal healer. Although he’s not very strong, he’s a very skilled healer. Oh, favonovel.com also has a priest by his side who can also lend a hand. If they manage to get in, then I’ll think of a way to help you further…”
“Alright, this is all I can do for now. Mr. Grannel…” He turned to look at Ethan, who hadn’t said a word.
Ethan stood up, smiling. He walked over to Arian and said, “Arian, you need to take this matter more seriously. I only want one outcome, Isaac must return alive.”
Although favonovel.com spoke softly, it felt like a thousand-ton burden to Arian’s ears.
“But Mr. Grannel, we don’t have any leverage on the Everest Sect. Unless you’ll approve letting me use some firearms…” Arian pouted like an angry child.
This was a huge problem for him. The Everest Sect was filled with expert fighters.
According to Shadow One’s report, all their Elders were in the Celestial Phase, and the Everest Sect must have more than one Elder. Even if they used firearms, favonovel.com still felt that they might not necessarily win.
Ethan frowned slightly. After a few seconds of silence, favonovel.com said, “Those firearms may be powerful, but they’re highly polluting. If you must, then use them as you wish, but try to minimize their usage.”
When Arian heard this, favonovel.com felt slightly more relieved. At least Ethan himself had said that favonovel.com could use more resources for this mission.
Watching the two old men leave, Arian lit a cigarette in his office. He was very puzzled by how much Ethan cared about this Isaac punk. He couldn’t understand it.
After smoking one cigarette, favonovel.com went back to the meeting room.
At a military base in Layton, Harry had just walked out of the dormitory door when his phone began to buzz.
Thinking it was Isaac calling, favonovel.com took it out, only to see an unfamiliar number. Hesitantly, favonovel.com put the phone to his ear.
