Thus, the investigation’s scope was narrowed down to a very small interval.
They would start by investigating the Wizard civilization’s forces that had settled in the Parallel Universe. If that produced no results, they would then try to investigate in the direction of the Celestial and Demon civilizations.
With brevity and clarity, Medici Sage conveyed the Supreme Council’s six-person team’s adaptive and temporarily devised investigative strategy to Dean Frist, Link, and Elise.

“Elise, please also pay attention to any news in this regard.”
After hearing Medici Sage’s explanation, Dean Frist immediately made a request to Elise Clark.
Yes, a request, or rather, a negotiation.
“No problem, Dean,”
Elise agreed without hesitation.
Respect is mutual.
Ravensmouth College respected Elise Clark’s current semi-independent status, and in return, Elise Clark also had to show sufficient respect for the college’s management in front of outsiders/external forces, including the Supreme Council.
Any disagreements could be resolved internally with closed doors.
After this matter, Dean Frist returned his gaze to Medici Sage and fell into silence.
Medici Sage, of course, understood the reason behind the Dean’s silence.
After careful consideration, Medici Sage decided to honor Dean Frist’s wish and to candidly reveal the mission handed down by the Supreme Council.
However, Medici Sage didn’t immediately speak. Instead, he rechecked the anti-eavesdropping measures in the meeting room himself.
This gesture made Dean Frist, Link, and Elise take Medici Sage’s next words even more seriously.
Once certain that the anti-eavesdropping measures were correct, Medici Sage finally began, “The Supreme Council is not interested in the true origin of Sage Link Grande’s True Spirit, and I must reiterate this point because it is the premise of everything. Whether or not to pursue the truth is at the discretion of Sage Link Grande, and the Supreme Council fully respects Grande’s freedom. The premise is that Sage Link Grande must not damage the overall interests of the Wizard civilization in the process of his inquiry.”
As he spoke, Medici Sage looked intently at Link, waiting for his response.
“I understand, and I am grateful for the Supreme Council’s respect, as well as for the indulgence of the five Saints,”
Link responded immediately, with sincere gratitude, showing no pretense or evasion.
“That would be best.”
Medici Sage seemed quite pleased with Link’s attitude and continued, “This time, the Supreme Council has dispatched us six to act alongside Sage Link Grande for one single purpose: to ascertain what exactly the Celestial civilization of the Parallel Universe wants to obtain from Sage Link Grande.”
Suddenly, Elise Clark interjected, “Is there a possibility that the Celestial civilization doesn’t actually want anything from Link? That all these elaborate maneuvers and troubles are merely a ruse to divert the Supreme Council’s attention and cover their real goal?”
“Indeed, that possibility stands,”
Medici Sage first concurred and then changed the direction of the conversation, “The Supreme Council has also dispatched specialists to investigate in this direction.”
“Understood,”
Elise nodded, seeming to have an epiphany, “So, is the Supreme Council casting a wide net, hoping to catch something but it doesn’t really matter if they don’t?”
Medici did not respond to Elise’s not-so-pleasant but vivid metaphor.
Upon hearing the dialogue between Elise and Medici Sage, Dean Frist had some thoughts, looking pensive.
Moments later, Dean Frist gathered his thoughts and spoke solemnly, “I think we should not follow the Celestial civilization or the Heavenly Master Xu Jing’s train of thought. They do theirs, we do ours. Once our strategy is set, we should just adapt to the circumstances as they come.”
Medici Sage still did not respond.
This attitude made it clear to Dean Frist, Link, and Elise that Medici Sage was indeed proceeding in that manner.
No matter how the Celestial civilization reacted or what Ravensmouth College and Link himself had in mind, nothing could sway Medici Sage’s determination to fulfill the mission assigned by the Supreme Council.
Therefore, at this point, the situation became utterly clear.
Ravensmouth College, in its expansion into the Parallel Universe, should focus on its own plans and interests, setting aside all external influences as much as possible.
After exchanging glances, Dean Frist, Link, and Elise unanimously agreed that the meeting could end there.
Continuing the discussion would not lead to any further progress.
After all, while there was an overlap in the interests of the Supreme Council and Ravensmouth College, there were even greater differences between them.
Meanwhile, back at the base at the same time.
Sage Palo, Sage Cody, Sage Selene, and the Grand Union Army had followed the advance corps of Ravensmouth College and arrived at the Parallel Universe through the cross-universe transmission array.
Via the official channels of Ravensmouth College, the United Corps had made an early report to the Supreme Council, and like other parts of Ravensmouth College’s advance corps, they obtained a temporary encampment.
If everything went as expected, the United Corps’ encampment should be connected to the other parts of Ravensmouth College’s advance corps.
However, the unexpected still happened.
Some faction within the Supreme Council exerted its influence, and the temporary encampment for the United Corps was assigned right next to that of the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell.
As the first force deployed to the Parallel Universe by the wizard civilization, the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell had already established a considerable foundation.
Yet, within the wizard civilization’s Front Line encampments, the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell still retained its temporary encampment.
This was the hub for the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell to communicate with the Supreme Council.
By now, in theory, the temporary encampment of the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell should only have some staff responsible for communicating with the Supreme Council.
But, once the United Corps completed their encampment and became aware that their neighboring encampment belonged to the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell,
The Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell sent a large group of heavily armed combat wizards to take up positions in the temporary encampment.
Moreover, during their deployment, they made no secret of their hostility towards Ravensmouth College and the United Corps, pointing all their war machinery, including the Starry Fortress and interstellar battleships, directly at the United Corps’ temporary encampment.
Their posture made it clear they were ready to fire on the United Corps at any moment.
As the highest command level of the United Corps, Wizard Molly Kidman along with Sages Palo, Cody, and Selene, met immediately to discuss countermeasures.
“Let our forces enter a level-one alert state right away, and prepare to engage in combat at any moment,” Sage Palo said as the meeting began, taking a very firm stance.
Sage Palo’s proposal won the agreement of Sage Cody, Sage Selene, and Jasmine.
The command was immediately passed down.
After several months of coordinated training, the United Corps had honed both their cooperation and their execution.
Upon receiving the order, the United Corps quickly responded in accordance with the level-one alert plan, ready to defend against any potential attack from the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell.
In the meeting room, the heads-up meeting continued.
Sage Selene proposed, “Let’s immediately report this incident to the Supreme Council Office, appeal to the Supreme Council, and strongly condemn the hostile actions of the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell.”
“I will take charge of this matter.”
Sage Cody volunteered to handle the task, “I’ll report to the college and make the appeal to the Supreme Council.”
“Thank you, Cody.”
“It’s my duty.”
In just a few words, Sage Palo officially entrusted the task of reporting and appealing to Sage Cody.
Jasmine took the initiative, saying, “I’ll tell Link about this, and then get in touch with Dean Frist through Link.”
“Good, it’s settled then.”
As the situation was urgent, Sage Palo made the final decision, “Selene is in charge of logistics, Cody will contact the college and the Supreme Council, Jasmine will get in touch with Link and the Dean, and I will take command.”
The resolutions were set, and the heads-up meeting came to a swift conclusion.
Palo, Selene, Cody, and Jasmine each set about their tasks.
At the Ravensmouth College Base.
Dean Frist and Link, who had just concluded a secret meeting with the six-person team from the Supreme Council, received the bad news from Jasmine.
It was trouble after trouble.
They had yet to deal properly with Heavenly Master Xu Jing and the celestial civilization when the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell stirred up more problems.
How utterly bothersome.
It was also uncertain whether Lotson Grande was facing troubles of his own.
