Chapter 753: The Dead Lake (3)
The Borghese region is on the edge of the Southern Forest, because the Southern Forest has been defined by the Empire as a dangerous and uninhabited territory for a long time, so to a certain extent, Borghese can be regarded as the far frontier of the Empire.
The volcanic area that Kasia found was closer to the Empire, and according to the map, there were many people living there in the past, and there were many towns. But it seems that more than 300 years ago, the volcano that had been dormant became active, and finally a huge eruption evacuated all the inhabitants of the area.
"And now, can it be considered a no-man's land?" Cassia closed the book and glanced at the date of publicationβdecades old, a book that had only recently been reprinted.
"It seems that some information will have to be gathered by other means, and books say that decades after the eruption, the volcanic rock there is already overgrown with plants and a new forest. Later, many people went there to dig up some of the previous minerals. "But the information gap is a bit long, and we have to check the latest information." β
Eventually, he found the names of several cities around the volcanic zone, and Kasia wrote them down one by one, and then rested.
The next morning, Kasia woke up and contacted Sotagan.
"It's probably the best news that I can get in touch with you now. It doesn't bode well for something like this to happen shortly after coming to Manoma. Suotagaon sighed very much, "Except for the information network I just formed, Ye Jielin and Atuohuan have all lost contact. The power of the big family really can't be underestimated, at least in terms of blocking personal news, we don't have any way to break through. β
"What's going on over there, I've learned some basic information from Delya, everyone else is safe now, but their freedom is greatly restricted. It should have been done by the Webley family, after all, they didn't want to involve Jetlyn in this incident. Kasia's words were a little bitter, "I'm safe, but I'll be away from Manoma for a while soon, and I still have some important things to do." β
"The secrecy of the contacts kept me out of the way, and now that I'm dealing with the black market and expanding the new network of middlemen, I shouldn't have much trouble. If you need any help, just let me know. Most of Yeterin's subordinates were monitored, but the remaining half was still a considerable number. β
"There won't be any conflicts with anyone for now. β
Hanging up the communication, Kasia went down to the hall, brought paper and pen, and wrote down all the strange characters engraved in his head, little by little.
It wasn't until the afternoon that he stopped, and when he put down his pen, Kasia felt tiredness sweep over him in an instant. So far, it seems that as long as you have a little relationship with these things, it will be very draining. After shaking his head and drinking a glass of frozen juice to refresh himself, he put away dozens of pieces of paper on the table covered with dense text symbols one by one.
"Much more than I expected. Kasia estimated the thickness, and finally took out three of them and put them aside, "Just give these to Shako first, I don't know what they mean, I hope it won't invite anything bad." β

"Young Master Xiao, I went to see Miss Sha Ke once tonight, and I heard her say that she has translated a few text symbols. In the future, the progress will be a little faster, but it will take a few years to complete such a huge amount of resolution. Lyle got into the limousine and got in touch with him, "According to the initial plan at that time, I gave her some information again. β
"It was a real surprise when the translation came out. I thought it would take a little more time. Shako's status level can be adjusted a bit, we need the knowledge in her head at the moment. β
"I'll get it done as soon as possible. She did exceed our expectations and was just trying to give it a try, but it turned out unexpectedly. In addition, Young Master Xiao, I have already asked someone to investigate her background, and the results will be available in about a week. β
"And, there is one more thing, Young Master Xiao, I don't know how to deal with it?" Lyle asked, "I need your permission, Young Master Xiao." β
"Just say it, I remember the matter about Miss Sako, as if all the handling power was in your hands. β
"That's true. Lyle started the limousine and glanced at the main entrance of the Imperial History School in the rearview mirror, "But there could be more involved." At Sako's Imperial History School, her classmates didn't seem to be very friendly to her. Recently, because of some things, one of her classmates disappeared mysteriously, causing that person's best friends to point the finger at her. They are all nobles such as counts and viscounts, but Miss Shako is the most ordinary person in the empire. In the past few days, she has received a lot of intimidation for no reason, because of her identity and background, Miss Sha Ke has no way to avoid it at present. β
"In your opinion, will it threaten Miss Shako's life, or will it disturb the progress of the translation of the strange symbols she is working on?"
"At the moment, it's just a distraction in my life, but I think it will definitely affect the progress of the translation. As for the danger to life, if things were allowed to go on like this, I don't think Miss Sako's feelings would be much better than death. β
"Are you in the family of Earl and Viscountγγγγ"
"It should be the children of more important people, otherwise they would not have been sent to the Imperial History School. Lyle replied immediately.
"Now that everyone is short of time, you should know how to do it. But we need to investigate in advance whether there is a deeper network behind them, and I don't have the heart to deal with that stuff right now. By the way, Lyle, is there any update on Mr. Kasia's whereabouts?"

"Captain Il, Captain Theodore. Sitian walked into the room with the papers she had prepared, and greeted the two men in front of her.
Both of them smiled back and motioned for Stien to sit aside, "This is Mr. Adelaide of the House of Astus, an ally of cooperation this time. Ilr then looked at Stien and said to Adelaide, "Styen, the person in charge of tracking and information intelligence this time. β
"Hello, Miss Styen. Adelaide nodded, and continued the unfinished conversation with Il.
"I think we also have to consider the forces on his ally's side, many of which have not yet been investigated, but according to my own intelligence, the respective forces between him and Ye Jielin are separate. In other words, the group of men that Trono and Milton met in Messelia were simply Cassia's personal men. This time he came back to Manoma and joined up with Yeterin's unmonitored personnel, I think it was certain. β
"And you have to take the chance. I think you all know about the first joint mission of the military school, right? Whether or not the Webley family will revoke their surveillance at that time is not yet clear. β
