Finally, his gaze turned to Louis.
"Mayer, do you have time recently?"
Louis said, "I need to make a trip to the Tunisian Republic."
Mr. Chi was taken aback, looking at Louis with a gentler expression:
"Then I'll leave the matter of Fox to you. You don't need to worry too much about the affairs under the Ense Empire. I'll be stationed there long-term."
Louis: ???
What kind of strange talk is this person saying?
At this point, the little swan kicked Louis again.
Louis instantly understood her meaning.
So he said:
"Actually, I'm going there primarily for commercial exchange."
Mr. Chi nodded in praise:
"I understand, I understand completely, but during the commercial exchange, you'll bring back Fox as well, right."
Louis coughed once and remained silent.
Mr. Chi knew how to follow up the conversation, so he quickly added:
"Fox is also one of you, an Ense person, it's only natural for you to bring him back."
"No wonder you're choosing to side with Ense."
"If possible, try to bring back his relics as well. A wanderer should return home."
Louis pondered for a moment and said:
"What is Fox's situation over there?"
Mr. Chi seemed to misunderstand something again, saying in a deep voice:
"The scattered body of the Dust Python must have been mostly cleared by him."
The little swan spoke up:
"It's hard to say, right? The Dust Python, such a monster, isn't something that's easy to handle, even just a part of its revealed body."
Louis instantly realized that the little swan was likely aware of the situation of the Jade Phoenix Mage called "Fox."
However, considering the Nine Sword legacy is all in the Ense Empire, it's possible that now more than half of the Jade Phoenix Alliance are Ense people.
What is this?
Stop here, gin, the distillery is full of spies?
Nonetheless, Mr. Chi said in a very serious tone:
"No, he definitely won't fail."
"Fox is the kind of person who would rather die than fail to achieve his goal."
"Since he has chosen to make a move, he will undoubtedly accomplish his goal cleanly and thoroughly, at the very least ensuring that those who come after him can wrap things up perfectly."
As Mr. Chi said this, he suddenly wiped his hand across his face.
An old face was revealed to everyone.
He winked at Louis and said:
"Mayer, during this trip to the Tunisian Republic, the Wise Council will send relevant personnel to assist you."
"With my old face as a guarantee, this journey will not be unworthy of Jade Phoenix's blood."
Louis only felt his head buzzing, as he continually heard faint "oh my" sounds.
The little swan whispered:
"The Grand Speaker of the Wise Council, Tom Karysis."
She paused for a moment and said:
"A demigod renowned across the continent."
Louis's lip twitched slightly.
Generally speaking, the upper limit of professional ranks is usually LV20.
Precisely because of the existence of rank limits, many professionals cannot fully exert the power of their occupational systems.
Above LV20, professionals become the legendary figures praised by many, choosing their legendary destiny, gaining the legendary domain blessing, which allows them to maximize the potential of their profession.
But even among legends, there are differences.
Take the top-notch creatures, the dragons, as seen by ordinary people.
Even if they're pureblood dragons, most dragons, throughout their lives without illness or disaster, maximizing their bloodline power, have professional ranks that usually range from LV21 to LV25.
The Abyssal Lords of the Bottomless Abyss mostly range from LV24 to LV27.
For demigods, their professional rank isn't directly related.
Theoretically, as long as they've ignited divine fire, they can claim to be demigods.
Indeed, history has seen lucky instances where miracles were performed, with divine fire being ignited at exemplar-level or even lower hero-level.
But these are miracles forged under extreme coincidences or with the involvement of deities.
However, in most cases, the baseline for becoming a demigod is being a legend.
The median is above LV25.
Even Louis, a foreigner, has heard of this institution, the Wise Council.
It's the continent's top order faction, or more accurately, a neutral institution.
Its participants are basically the top mages, astrologers, and prophets from all over the world.
Whenever signs of disaster appear on the continent, they give early warnings and consider whether to send relevant personnel to assist the local nations in resolving them.
This is also why Louis is quite satisfied with the righteous forces in this world.
Right is right, wrong is wrong.
Even though the order-aligned factions never lack trivial matters, they're definitely like little white flowers compared to those chaos-prone jokers running around.
If anyone tries to justify the evil organization, they're either out of their mind or have vested interests.
Anyway, back to the point.
The situation with the Wise Council is somewhat like a mini-youth version of the United Nations.
There are quite a few capable individuals among them.
Especially the current Grand Speaker.
Being a Demigod, he certainly rose to power through sheer strength.
A master of the legendary level can comprehend the rules to touch upon divinity, then ignite a divine fire through divine tests.
With divine fire, one can collect the power of faith and refine it into divine power.
Eventually, after a series of cultivation far harder than ascending to the heavens, one gains a divine persona and divine position.
One who gathers divine fire, divine power, divine persona, and divine position embodies the ability to become a god.
This path is the divine ascension staircase for the top powerhouses of the Star Continent.
And someone like Tom Karysis, the Grand Speaker, undoubtedly walks the most orthodox divine ascension path.
He guessed there might be a Demigod among the Jade Phoenix Mage.
But he never expected this Demigod would reveal their true identity just like that.
At this moment, he looked at Louis warmly and said:
"Since Mayer has the courage to expose himself and face challenges, it's not good for me to keep hiding."
"Let me start by relieving some of everyone's concerns."
"And then..."
"Mayer, regarding the situation on the Tunisian Republic side, I'll send someone to relay the relevant information to you later."
"Coincidentally, a batch of our Wise Council members is active in Tunisia."
"If things get too urgent, you can also contact them for assistance."
He winked at Louis.
Clearly, this is a privilege for the brave.
Everyone looked at Louis with eyes full of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
No one had revealed their true identity before.
Firstly, because the Jade Phoenix Mages have many enemies, fearing harm to their families.
Secondly, they didn't trust the other Jade Phoenix Mages that much.
But no one expected that the first to reveal themselves was a businessman.
Someone not yet at the paradigm level.
They were practically biting into a ton of lemons.
This is a Demigod's favoritism...
Yet they had few complaints.
As mentioned before, this is a reward for bravery.
The Little Swan sat beside, unable to contain her laughter.
"Hehe, even though I knew Mr. Chi was the Grand Speaker, I didn't expect that such a move could earn his recognition."
"Great, when the Grand Speaker comes to station in the Ense permanently, wouldn't that, more or less, strengthen Ense's foundation?"
"Confusion State, you've made a great contribution!"
...
With everyone's envy and jealousy lingering, today's online meeting came to an end.
After logging off, the Little Swan hurriedly went to find Sister Wang to claim credit.
Although Louis didn't understand why, even though it was his accidental achievement, the Little Swan took the credit for him.
But as long as she was happy.
After all, the Little Swan was becoming more adorable lately.
In such a scenario, the journey to the Tunisian Republic finally officially commenced.
...
[Time: On the day of travel]
Louis stood among the bustling crowd, glancing up at a building resembling a cathedral.
He had two large boxes on each side, gently setting down the luggage, and sat in the guest area surrounded by guards, with an oversized backpack on his back.
Beside him, Beatrice stifled her laughter as she helped unload his luggage.
"Why bring so much for a long trip?"
"Can't you let the maid team handle it?"
But soon, Beatrice realized something was off.
She looked Louis up and down and said:
"Don't you have two dimension bags? Why not store them in the bags?"
Louis coughed, leaned down, and whispered in Beatrice's ear:
"Don't forget I have another identity traveling with me, my two dimension bags are already full!"
Beatrice's ears reddened from his warm breath, barely managing to say:
"Then let me take your backpack."
Saying so, she tried to store both the luggage and the backpack in the dimension bags.
To her surprise, she discovered something unusual upon doing so.
