Chapter 3538 Singled Out
Levi stopped searching for other spiritual ley lines.
He decided to lie in wait, more certain than ever that his enemy would show up.
Levi’s predictions were proven right.
Gloria was determined to devour all the spiritual ley lines.
Even medium and small spiritual ley lines were not spared.
She would continue to devour them all.
It was only a matter of time until she tracked Levi down since he was guarding a medium spiritual ley line.
All he needed to do was to wait.
Meanwhile, Phoenix and the others had made significant headway in their investigation, discovering more and more people associated with Gloria.
The results had given them a shock as well.
They did not expect her to have so many men under her spell.
Despite her reputation, she had seduced about eighty percent of the men in West Pavilion.
Their limited investigation already revealed that Gloria had hundreds of men from various large factions under her control.
In actual fact, she could have thousands of victims.
One thing was clear—Gloria was extremely shrewd.
None of the men she had seduced had even managed to hold her hand, yet they were more than willing to worship her like a goddess.
While the people in West Pavilion knew all about Gloria’s reputation, the other factions were ill-informed about it, let alone the men she had seduced.
Many of them even believed Gloria to be an innocent woman.
Phoenix and the others clicked their tongues in disapproval. Nonetheless, they had to admit, “Her tactics are brilliant. We’re impressed!”
No wonder Floyd had fallen victim to her tactics.
Few would be able to resist her tricks.
The men Gloria had seduced came from a variety of backgrounds as well, and there were even elders in the mix.
All were loyal to her to a fault.
Azure Dragon and a few others lamented, “Gloria’s too good! Even we would’ve fallen victim to her wiles. Only someone of Boss’ caliber could resist her seduction!”
Alas, they only had rumors instead of hard evidence to substantiate their suspicions.
The men seduced by Gloria hardly qualified as evidence, seeing as they would never trust Phoenix’s group.
After all, they viewed Gloria as their deity, and they would not believe anything that sullied her character.
Naturally, they would not provide any evidence against her.
Additionally, Azure Dragon and the rest had guessed that if Gloria was truly the enemy, all her co-conspirators would have been dead by now.
After all, they had heard of the Esoteric Guild killing off many theurgists who were believed to be traitors.
Thus, it was likely that all of Gloria’s co-conspirators, if any, were dead.
The ones who were still alive were probably not considered threats by Gloria.
That meant it was impossible to get any evidence from them.
It would be too far-fetched to label Gloria the enemy just because of her acquaintance with these people.
Of course, Levi’s subordinates had been investigating the connection between Gloria and the dead people as well.
The investigation findings merely increased the likelihood of Gloria being the culprit.
Abilities aside, Gloria had an extensive network, which was crucial.
She had access to all the information held by the Ecclesiastic Order and more intel from her control over Floyd.
Hence, it was easy for her to gain information at the speed of light.
However, it was more difficult to ascertain the extent of Gloria’s abilities, and they had to investigate further to reach a conclusion.
Nonetheless, they believed they would eventually find some clues.
They were confident they had located a crucial hint to solving the puzzle.
While they were busy with their investigation on Gloria, Floyd was busy cultivating.
The Fiends were all serving Levi, who would not allow Floyd to uncover his whereabouts.
Phoenix and Azure Dragon were under Levi’s command as well.
Floyd felt as though he was singled out, wholly unaware of everyone else’s activities.
They seemed to be deliberately avoiding him.
