Chapter 993: Part 1: New Conspiracy
From MC's Perspective:
The following day,
I woke up early. Looking at the pile of items around me. A strange gleam flashes in my eyes. Last night, I managed to identify 5 important artifacts and noted down their information.
But after work, I slept here. After removing the thoughts, I used the washroom in the building. There was no one inside the building this early morning.
Those Gang Members and Business Family must have been frustrated. Thinking about it my eyes gleamed with a twinkle.
Time passed,
I completed the mediation a few hours later. I thought of a status panel.

The Status panel showed up. Then my gaze fell on the information. After seeing that body progress has further increased. I smiled in satisfaction.
Right after, I started to work. It's easy for me to use the system to get information.
But I have taken interest in studying these items carefully.
When it was work time. People started to come in. Especially those who belong to the Hawk Family members saw that the Basement room was still active.
Which means someone is still inside. They reported back the information to the Hawk Family.
At the same time, Venice and his gang members stopped their actions against the foreigner. They have received work from the old Butler Joe to stop their activities.
The Gang Leader Venice was unwilling. But he still agreed on the surface. He got the opportunity to fly high. But it turned out to be vain in the end.
He blamed all of this misfortune on the foreigner. If the foreigner had run away, he would have reaped huge rewards.
"I can't do anything inside the city. But outside the city is lawless. People can die," Venice said in his heart.
Outside the Purple City,
2 hours later,
The Caravan carrying goods to the Purple City was attacked by the robbers. Not only the caravan was destroyed under their attacks even the goods were damaged.
The news soon reached the ears of Cory Anderson. She immediately thought about leaving to rescue the people and secure the goods.
Then she thought of something before going to the Main Building. She then quickly goes to the basement.
Creak!
The door opened.
The other hand, I stopped going through the rubbles and looked towards the entrance. Cory walked in with a solemn expression on her face.
"What happened?" I stood up and asked.
"One of our caravans was robbed by bandits. The remaining goods were left over the ground. I need you to come with me to collect the important items,"She said.
Hearing that I frowned.
"It will take a long time," I then said to her.
"It's urgent. If you find anything useful to you, you can take it," She said in a serious tone.
The other hand, I'm dumbfounded. Then I looked at her expression.
"She must be desperate," I said in my heart. The company was already going on loss. Now, this robbery will impact the business further.
She probably wants to salvage the important items as soon as possible. Otherwise, those things will be taken by others.
"Alright, I'm coming with you," I said to her.
Then we left the place. After leaving the building, she used her flying car.
"Get inside," She said.
Hearing that I hopped inside the back of the seat.
Swoosh!
The next second, she drove the car towards the destination.
All of this happened within a few minutes. I didn't even see her consulting with anyone including Butler.
"Oh, that's right. I don't know about her magic powers," I muttered to myself.
Previously, I missed probing her strength. Now, I'm going to use the system. I gave the command to the system. Then her details appear on the status panel.
"Level-7 Bloodline Wizard. But the name of her bloodline is an unknown name," I said in my heart. Her Bloodline is purer than those in my academy.
"Young Miss of the Purple Chamber of Commerce is really terrifying. Her strength has reached the limit. Little more effort, she can reach level-8," I said in my heart.
Did I see something different last time? I shook my head. I think I have used only the probe function now. A bitter smile appeared on my face.
Cory was focused on driving the flying car.
After half an hour of flying, we reached the destination. We see the injured guards are sitting under the tree to take rest. The other hand, the damaged goods are lying on the ground near the destroyed caravan.
Tud!
The Flying air car landed on the ground. We then stepped out of the car.
"Young miss, you are here!"
"We are saved!"
"Miss, the bandits have robbed most of our goods. Among the bandits a level-7 wizard was present. He left immediately after robbing the goods," The Captain of the escort team said.
"Level-7," Cory's eyes turned icy.
The other hand, I used the system to probe the surroundings. Seeing that there was no threat, I sighed inwardly.
"You can go through the remaining goods. It's too dangerous to stay here. The Robbers might come back to check," Cory said to me.
Hearing that I nodded my heart at her before going towards the damaged goods.
The other hand, Cory distributed some potions to the injured people. Then she called for backup. So that the team can take away the injured ones.
But she decides to stay back. She wants to know who is courageous enough to touch their caravan goods. Everyone knows that the purple crystal laid caravan belongs to the Purple Chamber of Commerce.
She thinks there is some conspiracy behind this situation.
Meanwhile,
Not far away from the caravan location, a group of wizards sitting under the tree. They are level-5 to level-6 wizards except their leader who is level-7 Wizard.
One of them asked,"Boss, do you think she will come?"
A middle aged man with black short hair raised his head. There is a small scar on the left side of his cheek. His skin complexion was pale. His eyes were gloomy and bloodthirsty.
The sense of dreadful feeling coming from this person is making others afraid. His name is Rex Von.
"She will come. Her business is already going downhill. The caravan attack is a huge blow to her. When she comes, we will capture her," Rex said in a mocking tone.
Like Cory has suspected this was a conspiracy. These people are not robbers but professional killers. Rex and others are from one of the top organizations, the Shadow Skull.
Rex took up the task of Special Mission which is to capture the daughter of Purple Chamber of Commerce. They can't do it inside the Purple City.
So they targeted their caravan of goods caravan.
"Boss, I heard the Purple Chamber of Commerce has a huge treasury in their Purple City. We should not miss the opportunity," One of them stated.
A quick gleam flashes in Rex's eyes. He doesn't know why the mission was placed. But he guessed the intention behind the higher ups' decision. Maybe the Purple Chamber of Commerce has something which their higher ups need.
"Let's wait here. I have bribed their guards. If she comes we will know," Rex said in a casual tone.
For him, the mission was not difficult. But he is not stupid to confront Cory without a trump card. He knows all the rich descendants have some cards provided by their family.
What more? He has to take care of the Butler behind her as well. As long as he takes down the Butler, then he can confront her without any worry.
Time passed,
At the caravan site, I looked down at the broken pieces. I sighed inwardly. These goods are taken from the ancient sites as well. They were already in a fragile state but the bandit attack has completely destroyed them.
I can only pick up a few pieces.
