85: Gavin's fall, the plan to kill Gervas

"I can't worry about that much!"

Gevas took a deep breath, then stood up.

"Since we've already pledged allegiance to Madoc, there's no way to back out."

"Therefore, from now on, we can only go all the way, and whether we live or die is up to fate!"

"Gesi, I need your help. Whether by stealing, robbing, or any other means, we must gather twenty slaves!"

Facing Gevas's resolute gaze, Gesi said nothing, only bowed respectfully, expressing his loyalty.

As Gevas's servant, even if his master wanted to climb mountains of knives and descend into seas of fire,

He would follow by his side, clearing obstacles and bravely leading the charge.

Next, Gevas and his servant discussed the plan in detail.

They decided to directly apprehend those of low status.

As for people like Roen, who were protected by renowned individuals,

They would find a way to abduct him when he was out alone and unobserved.

After all, if Madoc only wanted one or two people this time,

He could naturally act without scruple, randomly targeting people.

But if it was twenty people... he would have to be more cautious.

Time flew by, and it was midnight.

In the storeroom, Roen sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, cultivating the Meditation Technique while waiting for the intelligence to refresh.

"Ding! Today's intelligence is as follows—"

"1. After Litton learned that you were going to Kula City, he deliberated for a whole day before finally deciding to write you a letter of recommendation to Gavin."

"2. The content of the recommendation letter is Litton's hope that Gavin, considering their many years as fellow apprentices, would help look after you if you encountered difficulties."

"3. Dr. Gavin had already become one of the Saar Family's collaborators half a year ago, and the method for repairing the Sea of Souls was granted by Madoc."

"4. Gevas placed the Wolf King Breathing Technique and the essence fruits in the safe under the floor in the flowerbed of the office."

"5. Gevas is now preparing to act daringly, gathering twenty slave quotas through forced arrests, kidnappings, and other actions."

"6. Because you are protected by Litton, Gevas plans to send close associates to watch you, intending to lure you to a secluded place when you go out alone, and then abduct you."

"7. Gevas possesses three blank residence permits without stamps, placed on the second shelf of the bookcase."

"8. The Thieves' Guild is making a comeback, preparing to expand its influence and establish a branch in Kula City."

"9. Low-level werewolves and low-level Vampires both have things they fear and are restrained by, respectively—click to expand."

"10. The Kura Family has mastered a method that allows low-level werewolves to transform even on non-full moon nights."

At this moment, Roen heard the prompt and instinctively looked at the intelligence.

As a result, when he saw the content of the first piece of intelligence, he couldn't help but be greatly surprised.

"What? A letter of recommendation?"

Roen's face was complex, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

"I didn't expect Doctor Litton to go to such lengths for me..."

Previous intelligence showed that during his last trip to Kula City,

Litton discovered that Gavin was conducting human experiments.

Therefore, even if they hadn't completely fallen out, they had certainly gone their separate ways.

Yet now, Doctor Litton, for his sake, had swallowed his pride and sought help from Gavin again.

For a moment, Roen was deeply moved.

"It's just... Mr. Litton probably didn't expect that Dr. Gavin had already completely fallen, did he?"

At this point, Roen shifted his gaze to the third piece of intelligence.

"After all, Dr. Gavin had already begun collaborating with the Saar Family half a year ago."

"Even the method for repairing the Sea of Souls was a reward given to him by Madoc."

"Therefore, through half a year of dealings, the relationship between the two must have reached an intimate and interdependent level!"

"In that case, whether Dr. Gavin will still remember their old friendship is hard to say..."

Roen's eyes narrowed, and he fell into thought.

Of course, he wasn't thinking about the recommendation letter.

After all, his plan was already complete, and it didn't include Gavin at all.

The reason he was pondering now was simply to consider whether these three pieces of intelligence had any exploitable value.

"Just like Barto's ledger, if I can find the details of Gavin's dealings with the Saar Family, perhaps..."

Roen pondered for a moment, but ultimately decided to kill Gevas first, go to Kula City, and then consider other matters.

So, Roen continued to browse the intelligence.

"The location of the Wolf King Breathing Technique and the essence fruits..."

Roen's heart stirred. These two items were placed in the police office, which on the surface seemed impregnable and foolproof.

However, if he could truly kill Gevas without anyone discovering it,

Perhaps he could indeed find a way to retrieve these two items!

"Hmm? Because the number of required slaves is too large, arresting people from door to door would easily cause a huge commotion."

"Therefore, they want to trick me into going out and then act when no one is around, is that it...?"

When Roen saw this piece of intelligence, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl upwards.

Because Gevas's approach perfectly suited his intentions.

"I was originally wondering, if he came to arrest people at my home,"

"How I could kill Gevas while also distancing myself from Litton and his daughter, so they wouldn't be implicated."

"But now, they don't dare to act openly and want to secretly kidnap me, which coincidentally removes my worries!"

Roen's lips curved upwards; he felt much lighter-hearted, even experiencing a sense of pleasure.

"And those three blank residence permits, combined with the private seal mentioned in previous intelligence..."

Roen's expression relaxed; the final piece of his plan had also fallen into place.

"Next, Gevas's life enters its countdown!"

Following that, regarding the last three pieces of intelligence,

Roen merely glanced at them generally, not paying too much attention.

Night gave way to dawn, and in a blink, it was the next morning.

Roen woke up, as usual.

After breakfast, he took Lisa to school.

When he returned, he found Litton waiting for him.

"Roen, I have something I need to give you."

Litton hesitated for a moment before speaking.

Roen, through last night's intelligence, naturally knew what that item was.

But he still pretended not to know, looking at Litton with a curious expression.

At this moment, Litton took a letter from his embrace.

"Roen, if you encounter any difficult problems when you go to Kula City later,"

"Go find Dr. Gavin, give him this letter, and he will naturally help you after reading it."

Roen nodded, took the letter, and expressed his gratitude to Litton.

However, at this time, Litton looked conflicted and spoke again after a long pause.
