Chapter 2625
Unsurprisingly, the call got through in just a few rings.
“What can I do for you, Mr. Williams?” Zander asked politely.
“Zander, have you noticed people transporting Spirit Stones to the outskirts of Theos Ind recently?”
“Huh? Spirit Stones? What are those?”
Upon hearing the confusion in Zander''s tone, Zeke burst intoughter. Oh, well... It looks like he
doesn''t know as much as I do...
“Since you don''t know about that, you can forget I asked.”
“Wait a minute, Mr. Williams,” Zander suddenly piped up. “Even though I don''t know what Spirit Stones
are, I must admit I''ve noticed some strange happenings recently.”
“Go on.”
“I''ve seen several people secretly transporting some items toward the outer districts, though I have no
idea if those were Spirit Stones you just mentioned. Anyway, the people would then hand the items to a
mystery person. Well, who knows what they''re up to?”
Naturally, that information piqued Zeke''s curiosity. “Oh? What''s the deal about this mystery person?”
“He''s a mystery person because he doesn''t belong on Theos Ind. I think he must''ve sneaked in.”
Zeke immediately reeled in shock.
Huh? Theos Ind is as mysterious as it can get, and not even I would''ve found it if it weren''t for
Hawkeye. I can''t believe an outsider managed to find this ce and even sneaked onto it. He''s no
ordinary person, that''s for sure.
“I need details. Tell me everything you know about this mysterious person,” Zeke urged.
“Okay, but it''s a long story. Back in the day, I dug a secret tunnel in a remote corner of Theos Ind so
I coulde and go freely. Because of its location, there was no way anyone could stumble upon it. I
was the only one who knew where it was. Besides, even if someone did find it, they wouldn''t be able to
survive the traps inside. However, I discovered recently that two strangers had found my secret
passage and sessfully made their way through. Unfortunately, they destroyed the tunnel, and it has
be out of bounds even for me. That mysterious person, as it turns out, is one of the two strangers
who used my secret passage.”
“Describe their features to me,” Zeke demanded.
With that, Zander began to tell Zeke the stature and clothes of the two strangers.
After listening to the descriptions, Zeke soon had a good idea of the strangers'' identities.
From what Zander has described, those two men sound like the Guardian of Mount Kush and Erebus
from Netherworld! Yes. I''m sure about it. Since the day Theos kidnapped Lacey, those two men have
been hot on his tail. They must''ve tracked Theos to the ind! Argh, that reminds me... If it weren''t for
the Guardian and Erebus taking Lacey hostage, Theos wouldn''t have had the chance to whisk her
away. It''s all their fault she''s gone! I''ll make them pay for this!
“Zander, I want you to keep an eye on them. They''re likely my enemies... Inform me immediately if they
do anything out of the ordinary.”
“Understood!”
After ending the call on themunication device, Zeke once again sunk deep into his thoughts.
From the look of things, Erebus must''ve been responsible for wiping out Golden Cicada''s Centuria.
That means the person receiving Spirit Stones in the outer district is the Guardian of Mount Kush.
Could these two be working together to set a trap? Well, all I know is that they''re both massive threats
to Eurasia, and their cooperation can''t be good news. I must crush them before their plot seeds...
Also, I don''t think Erebus only annihted Golden Cicada''s Centuria for Spirit Stones. I bet he wants to
frame me as the murderer and send Northern Faction after me. If that''s the case, I reckon they''d attack
Southern Faction in the next few days.
With that thought in mind, Zeke quickly summoned Apollyon.

“Apollyon, Northern Faction might attack us in the next few days. I need you to be more careful when
arranging guard duties.”
