The next day, at the crack of dawn.

The guards keeping watch outside Ensemble Manor were all dozing off.

Although their people work in three shifts.

But this is indeed the time when you feel sleepy.

Moreover, not even a fly could be seen in this Ensemble estate.

Most importantly, their encirclement is very tight, and anyone can see that it is very difficult to break through.

Therefore, it's inevitable that everyone will become somewhat lax.

Just as the entire environment was in a daze, a loud noise came from the Ensemble Manor.

Accompanied by a loud bang.

Those sounds came from behind, making the people on this side suddenly realize something.

Subsequently, many people began to confirm the location from which the explosion was heard.

Once the location of the explosion was confirmed, everyone's eyes turned to that direction.

The commanders of the guards identified the source of the sound.

They looked around and found that no one had come in or gone out.

They didn't dare to rush over to check. After discussing it for a few minutes, they decided to go and inform Morgana, and then listen to what Morgana had to say.

Meanwhile, in another manor, the old woman and the remaining assassins had all transformed themselves.

The old woman had transformed into a noblewoman, while the assassins had changed into ordinary clothes; some had become butlers, servants, and others had taken on various other appearances...

They were carrying various kinds of luggage and had already set off.

When they left, a grave had already appeared in the backyard of the manor.

The soil on the grave mound was also newly added.

The old woman said to the assassins, "Take good care of your identities, and then write them down..."

The assassins heard the old woman nod.

Seeing the assassins' attitude, the old woman nodded, and without saying a word, left.

They headed towards Lingas City.

They actually took advantage of a family that had come from the Gallic Empire to join the Free Federation.

This family, which consisted of over a hundred people, was tricked into staying at the manor where they were sitting.

They then silenced him and took over his identity.

When they landed, their identification tags only contained their names.

So this is also a loophole; nowadays, old women can easily blend in by simply borrowing their identities.

As long as no one in the Gallo Empire or people of their status knows them, no one will know.

The old woman did not intend to stay in Lingas for too long.

Therefore, she was not afraid of her identity being exposed.

And so, they arrived at the gates of Lingas.

Seeing that they were carrying so much stuff and such a large group.

The guards at the gates of Lingas city are actually coordinated with the port.

As Morgana had said, those who came to join the Free Federation needed to be treated with the utmost courtesy.

Therefore, when the garrison of Lingas saw this scene, they all came to greet them.

"Gentlemen, you must be from Lady Villago's family," the head guard said, bowing respectfully as he joined the group.

Upon hearing the commotion, the old woman immediately got off the carriage.

After getting off the carriage, the old woman gave the guard a bright smile.

After the old woman changed her clothes and put on a smile, she seemed like a completely different person...

Therefore, a person's entire temperament, even their appearance and facial features, have changed.

I don't think even if Luna came over, she might not be able to recognize her immediately.

I wonder if that's why the old woman dared to come over.

The person the old woman is now using is called Madame Villago.

At this moment, she was wearing the clothes of the Lady Villago whom she had killed, and she had safely entered the role.

The old woman used to be a gloomy housekeeper.

She has now transformed into an elderly noblewoman, and she doesn't look out of place at all.

The old woman gave the guard a noble gesture: "Sir, yes, that's me..."

As she spoke, the old woman took out the documents from the port.

"This is the clearance document. Some of the people who came with us this time are from a manor outside our city of Lingas; they're responsible for managing those manors. These are the people who entered Lingas city together..."

The old woman spoke slowly and deliberately, with a warm expression on her face; in short, every move she made exuded the demeanor of a noblewoman.

Therefore, after glancing at the customs clearance document at the port, the guard didn't waste any more words.

“Mrs. Villago, welcome to the Free Federation. We will check your luggage and verify the identities of your companions shortly, and then issue you a residence certificate for the Free Federation.”

"Since you are new members, you will initially receive a three-month residency permit. If you commit no crimes during those three months and accumulate 300 points, you can apply for a one-year residency permit. After residing for a full year and accumulating 1000 points, you can apply for a permanent residency permit. This one-year period is your observation period!"

"As for how to acquire these points, it's quite simple. After you arrive, Mrs. Villago, you will purchase a residence, and then you will obtain the status of an employer. You can hire these people, and as long as they are paid through the union of our Free Federation, they will earn points. They can accumulate ten points for each day they work, which means that within three months, they only need to work thirty days to earn points."

"Of course, there are other ways to earn points. For example, there is a mutual aid association in the Free Federation, which offers various volunteer activities. You will earn points by participating in different volunteer activities, and you can earn more points there. As long as you are determined to stay and abide by the law, you will definitely be able to stay!"

"We created these systems to screen, to select those who are sufficient and necessary to remain..."

The old woman, though extremely respectful, responded to the guard's words.

But in reality, he didn't listen to a word of it.

After all, she won't be staying here for long.

She simply nodded.

The guard remained very patient: "We have a rest area outside the city, Mrs. Villago. You can rest there after you register... Because there are so many of you, we need three to five hours. Of course, if you want to go ahead, that's fine too!"

The old woman smiled slightly at the guard, then said, "Alright, I'm not in a hurry! Let's wait and go in together."

The guard nodded in agreement with the old woman's words and then instructed his men to get to work.

Just as the old woman was registering at the city gate, a guard rode quickly towards the city of Lingas.

At this moment, the old woman saw the travel-worn man and recognized him at a glance.

This person must be one of the guards surrounding Enss Manor.

After witnessing this scene, the old woman was not nervous at all.

Instead, a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

...

Morgana had just gotten up when she heard a sound coming from the doorway.

He said someone came looking for him.

The people who came to find him were none other than the guards outside the Ensemble Manor.

This time, it was a guard captain who came.

After Morgana summoned the captain of the guard, she looked surprised and somewhat excited: "You have news so quickly?"

After hearing Morgana's words, the captain of the guard shook his head and said, "Lady Morgana, this news may not be very good..."

"Just as dawn was breaking, a huge explosion was heard from Ens Manor, but there was nothing else unusual in the surrounding area. Our message was that we were to capture anyone trying to enter or escape..."

"But right now, all we hear is the sound of an explosion. We don't understand, and we have no idea what happened inside. So, we don't know what we can do..."

Morgana asked the captain of the guard, "After the explosion, what commotion was there in the manor? Has anyone else been going in or out?"

The captain of the guards shook his head and then said to Morgana, "Reporting to Lady Morgana, no, at least there was no news before we came here. The walls of this manor are very high, and it's very quiet inside. To find out what's happening inside, we would have to infiltrate. Only after infiltrating can we know what to do! However, we haven't received orders to infiltrate. The captains of the guards discussed it and sent me here to request an inquiry from Lady Morgana!"

Morgana nodded to the guards, then said, "You did a good job. Please wait a moment..."

Morgana could make decisions on her own for other matters, but this one involved Xiao Ce.

Moreover, Xiao Ce had already told her that this matter had escalated significantly and was no longer just a matter for the Illuminati.

Moreover, according to Xiao Ce, among the organizations they will face in the future, the Illuminati might be the most insignificant...

Therefore, Morgana is well aware that even small things can have a significant impact on many things.

She really didn't dare to make a decision rashly.

At this moment, Morgana decided to ask Xiao Ce herself.

After seeing Xiao Ce's decision, they then decided what to do next.

As soon as they arrived outside Xiao Ce's residence, Morgana was initially worried that Xiao Ce hadn't woken up yet.

But now that it seems Xiao Ce and Da Lei are fighting, she's worrying too much.

She was also impressed by Xiao Ce's self-discipline...

Normally, she would never disturb them while they were fighting.

However, at this moment, she still felt a little anxious.

"Mr. Ce... I didn't mean to bother you... but I really do have something urgent to attend to..."

In fact, Xiao Ce had already seen Morgana when she arrived.

However, Xiao Ce felt that Morgana would definitely tell him if she had something to say.

He and Da Lei were deeply in love, so they showed no sign of stopping for the time being.

So Xiao Ce stopped after hearing Morgana's words.

Wiping his sweat, he walked towards Morgana.

He walked up to Morgana and asked directly, "Morgana, is something wrong at Ens Manor?"

Morgana's face immediately showed surprise upon hearing Xiao Ce's words...

"Mr. Ce, you truly are a master strategist; nothing can be hidden from you..."

Xiao Ce smiled at Morgana and then said, "Alright, Morgana, we've known each other for so long... let's skip the formalities. Besides, I know you're studying Xiao Kingdom's culture, but I think you should take the essence and discard the dross. In my eyes, all that sycophancy is dross..."

Morgana smiled after hearing Xiao Ce's words, then said to him, "Mr. Ce, I'm telling the truth..."

Morgana smiled as she spoke, then said to Xiao Ce, "We've gone off on a tangent, Mr. Ce, let's get back to business."

Xiao Ce smiled at Morgana without interrupting.

Morgana simply recounted the events at Ens Manor that the guards had reported.

"So, should we sneak in and take a look now...?"

"I was at a loss for what to do for a moment..."

Xiao Ce said to Morgana, "The explosion you mentioned, either indicates some kind of civil war inside, or they're destroying something..."

"Furthermore, although you hid your guards in a very far place, I think you still managed to expose yourselves..."

Morgana nodded: "That's right. With such a big commotion, we can't expect them to know nothing... So, you support the infiltration?"

Xiao Ce said to Morgana, "That's right, Morgana, you need to be careful when you infiltrate. Since they dared to make such a commotion, they must have set up an ambush inside... Moreover, I suspect that most of their people inside may have already left..."

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Morgana immediately replied, "That's unlikely. We've set up numerous barriers and obstacles over there... It's impossible for ordinary people to get in... or get out!"

Hearing Morgana's confident demeanor, Xiao Ce chuckled and asked, "What if it's from underground?"

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Morgana was first stunned, then frowned, and said, "Our people are everywhere within a three-kilometer radius..."
