Chapter 3349 Monkey
Levi furrowed his eyebrows.
He had interacted with Sonja and the others before, so he was aware that, even if they had ulterior motives, they wouldn’t have the guts to put their intention into action.
Besides, with their abilities, there was no way they could’ve pulled one over on him.
Yet, all evidence pointed to them being the culprit.
They were the only ones from the Ecclesiastic Order who had been to his base before.
Since Invincible Clan didn’t steal his Ancient Divine Sword, it had to be them.
Levi couldn’t imagine there was a mastermind making everything unfold the way that it did.
If there was, then the mastermind would be a terrifying figure, because he couldn’t figure out how they did it.
Sadly, he had no leads to or proof of the mastermind even existing.
He started to wonder who could’ve treated him and Invincible Clan as pawns.
The mastermind had to be someone who was aware of his base’s layout and familiar with Invincible Clan.
He wasn’t sure if someone like that existed, but it was a strong possibility.
Levi then proposed that hypothetical mastermind to the people of North Pavillion.
“Impossible! There’s no one like that in the Ecclesiastic Order!” the Three Sages denied immediately. “It’s impossible that there’s a third party involved! We’re certain no one in the Ecclesiastic Order can pull this off! No one has the capability to do so!”
They had thought about all possible suspects in the Ecclesiastic Order, but no one matched the description.
That was because they ignored one important detail.
They were certain the person who pulled off the scheme was someone of great power, instead of an insignificant side character.
It was a scheme that required strategy rather than power, which was something they weren’t entirely used to.
Levi agreed with the Three Sages’ conclusion.
Because logically, the mastermind had to have incredible power to make the great Levi and the powerful Invincible Clan pawns of a scheme.
They couldn’t fathom that someone less powerful than them could play them like a fiddle because it went against everything they knew.
Besides, Gloria hadn’t left any traces of her existence or made any mistakes so far.
With the imprisonment of Sonja and the others, no one would know what was going on.
That caused Levi and the others to ignore the possibility of a third party.
“In any case, we should find Sonja and the others right now. Once we find them, everything will be cleared up.” Levi brought up an important point.
Of course, he didn’t forget about looking for Invincible Clan while searching for Sonja and the others.
Invincible Clan had become much tamer after losing badly last time.
They weren’t going to show themselves that easily any longer, even though that was a great insult.
It wasn’t like they had a choice. Levi and his daughter were too powerful for them to handle.
They would be wiped out if they didn’t use the most powerful fighters in their clan.
Levi increased the manpower for the search by mobilizing many people from the Ecclesiastic Order.
He directly went to all prominent factions in the Ecclesiastic Order and made them obey him by force.
If they refused to help him, then they would suffer a swift death.
With no other choice, they provided him with their aid.
Almost the entirety of the Ecclesiastic Order was helping him in the quest to locate Sonja and the others.
North Pavilion continued to rebuild as they helped Levi out.
It caused quite a stir in the Ecclesiastic Order.
It was an insult to them that Levi was able to command them to his will.
They were basically a god-like existence before he came around.
It was no wonder they were mad when an outside “monkey” was telling them what to do.
Nevertheless, they had no choice but to help Levi find people, even though they were unwilling to.
It was a grave insult to them.
Who would be willing to let a monkey be the master of its actions?
Soon, many people couldn’t take it anymore and wanted to oppose him.
Finally, someone stood up. “I refuse to let a monkey tell us, the great Ecclesiastic Order, what to do. Our ancestors will be ashamed if they see our current state!”
After that person stood up, many others stood up too.
There were actually a lot of people opposing Levi.
However, the Ecclesiastic Order was made up of many independent factions.
It was impossible for them to go against Levi by relying on their own faction’s capabilities.
They had to work together to achieve that goal.
And so, someone proposed an alliance to hatch a plan to take down Levi.
