Chapter 3255 Difficulty In Investigating The Ecclesiastic Order
The current greatest fear of the Three Sages of North Pavilion was for someone to find out that they were injured.
After all, that would mean an immense underlying danger to North Pavilion.
Being the backbone of North Pavilion, people losing faith in them could mean the extermination of North Pavilion.
If North Pavilion were to be under attack, them being severely injured, albeit temporary, would mean that they would be completely powerless.
Alas, it was as they say: you attract what you fear.
At the moment, the Three Sages had thought that the only one who knew about their injuries was Doran Xenos, the head of North Pavilion.
Never would they have imagined someone else to have witnessed the whole ordeal.
Naturally, the person would also have known about their injuries.
Unfortunately, that shall bring catastrophe onto North Pavilion.
Meanwhile, Levi had Sonja and the rest focused on finding the Bonemasters while he himself investigated the Ecclesiastic Order in hopes of uncovering the culprit.
In fact, due to the lack of manpower, Levi had even asked Black Hawk and Elterton Star for help.
He even prepared many advance devices and facilities as tools to aid the investigation.
Investigating the Ecclesiastic Order proved to be too difficult of a task.
When it came to Erudia, there were not many he could mobilize.
They was simply too inept and too weak for the task!
Although the Heavenly League could be considered as competent, they had pretty much been completely controlled by the Ecclesiastic Order since a long while ago.
If Levi were to ask them for help, chances are they would secretly interfere with the investigation, resulting in a waste of time and resources.
The biggest hurdle in the investigation was everyone’s unfamiliarity regarding the Ecclesiastic Order. The order was foreign to Levi himself.
There was not a single lead for him to start with. It was all a great unknown, including where they operated, who they were, who was involved, what power they held, and many more other details.
Every single information had to be obtain as they went along. Because of that, the investigation would be far more challenging.
Secondly, the Ecclesiastic Order truly was extremely powerful. Everyone within the order could be on par with a Super Deity.
After all, according to the standards of the Ecclesiastic Order, being a Deity was merely a fundamental level, and having a strong spiritual bone was the threshold.
As for a Super Deity, they were incredible fighters who had mastered many various arts and spent their days honing their skills.
All those part of the Ecclesiastic Order had relentlessly been practicing the Art of Consumption every day for years, or possibly decades.
It would be impossible for any of them to be anything less than powerful.
As of right then, all the information they had regarding the Ecclesiastic Order were obtained from rumors. The true strength of the order must be more impressive than what was being said in the rumors.
How was Levi supposed to carry on the investigation?
Even with the help of Black Hawk and Elterton Star by his side, it was still no easy feat.
It was still an immensely challenging task!
In fact, it was a tremendously dangerous task! Many lives could be lost in the process.
To make matters worse, it was possible for them to return empty-handed.
If they could not even find out anything about the Ecclesiastic Order, finding the culprit would be near impossible.
Unless whoever did it made themselves public.
However, that was a long shot. The culprit had maintained an incredibly low profile ever since undergoing the spiritual bone transplant.
Not even a single word got out.
Furthermore, according to Sonja, even if a spiritual bone transplant was successful, the recipient could not use it immediately.
The recipient must first get used to the new spiritual bone before he or she could put it to use.
And that takes time. A long time.
Hence, Sonja had predicted that the culprit would disappear for a while so that they could completely familiarize themselves with the new spiritual bone and make it theirs.
After that, they would proceed to cultivate their skills till they reach a certain level of mastery. Only when they were satisfied with themselves would they reveal themselves.
Otherwise, it would defeat the purpose of having a spiritual bone transplantation.
However, that made the entire search much more difficult.
Regarding the investigation, Levi felt melancholic.
Days had passed.
Yet not a single person sent could bring back useful information, nor were they getting any closer to having a breakthrough.
There was not a single clue.
There was only one other path they could take: finding the Bonemasters.
From there, they could investigate further.
Other than that, there were no other methods.
Even Levi was starting to get anxious.
“How about this? Starting from now, instead of trying to find the culprit, we might as well try to find out all of the more powerful ones within the Ecclesiastic Order!”
Without any other choice, Levi could only attempt to gather information regarding the Ecclesiastic Order first.
He began delegating tasks once again.
If the plan still would not work, his last card would be to enter the Ecclesiastic Order himself.
Either way, the culprit must be uncovered. Levi would do anything in his power to ensure that.
He would not just let the person get away with it.
Vengefulness coursed through Levi’s veins as he balled his hands into fists. Even if it’s the Master of the Ecclesiastic Order, I would not let him off the hook after what he’s done to my dear friend!
That’s all there is to it.
Even if it takes me a long time, that’s fine with me. I can wait!
