Chapter 851: Stel Neven Archive
"7 Towers..." Clovis looked down, contemplating. "To think such towers have been hidden this whole time..."
Silvia smiled. "I have told you everything you want to know. However, this road is extremely dangerous. If you continue on this path, you will have to face that guy."
"The Prophet." Clovis squinted his eyes. There was already bad blood between them, considering he was responsible for his grandmother’s death. In addition, if the information was correct, the one-eyed swordsman was also the Prophet’s puppet.
If that was the case, there was no need to hide from him anymore. The Prophet would definitely do everything he could to kill him.
Clovis thought for a moment before asking, "Great-grandma. How about Steven? I was told that you were the ones creating it."
"Steven." Silvia smiled. "Do you know its true name?"
"Stel Neven Archive."
"Correct, but I shortened it to Steven, simply because my husband was called Steven." She chuckled.
"..." Clovis definitely didn’t know that part.
"Stel Neven Archive. Do you know what it means?"
"No. I just heard about it not too long ago. And Mom told me that this was the only thing that the Hacfield family possessed. But after learning about you, it’s what you possess, not the Hacfield family."
"Of course. This is what the Hacfield family possesses. I planned for it to be inherited by Gerald when I created it. And Gerald would most likely let you inherit it. However, are you aware of the danger of possessing the Stel Neven Archive?"
"Yeah. It’s an extremely dangerous information archive."
"That is too, but you have forgotten about one thing. Information needs to be kept up to date. The danger of the Stel Neven Archive is not about the desire of people possessing it but the danger of continuing the update of the information.
"All this time, the Stel Neven Archive remained up to date because of me. Gerald and Aisha couldn’t manage it properly. They only knew how to use it, so when they passed it down to you..."
"Ah!" Clovis widened his eyes in shock. "Don’t tell me. The reason the Dark Supreme arranged for Vina to meet with me..."
"I don’t know about his plan, but after learning about this girl called Vina, I’m sure of it. That brat Matthew used to work on this project as well, so he must be aware that neither Gerald nor Aisha was capable of maintaining the archive.
"That was why he sent someone who was supposed to be able to use the information well to be recruited under your command to manage the Archive."
"..." Clovis seemed to have misunderstood the entire thing. The purpose of this battle was not to make Vina become the next Dark Supreme.
It was supposed to make Vina the new shadow of the Stel Neven Archive. The Dark Moon Mercenary might be one of the biggest mercenary groups in the world, but the Stel Neven Archive was much more terrifying.
That was why if Vina got offered such a thing, she most likely wouldn’t refuse.
"However, his entire plan might still work out in the end."
"What do you mean?" Clovis tilted his head in confusion.
"That brat told me that you forgave the little bitch that betrayed you."
"Ehm..." Clovis rubbed his cheek, trying to figure out what he should say. "Stefany might have betrayed me, but I was the one who pushed her to do it. In addition, she was extremely competent. As long as I played my cards right, I could destroy her at any moment. But before that, I could use her."
"That’s right. Since you have arranged it that way, just let her take over the Dark Moon Mercenary. It is a perfect cover for the one who will take care of the Stel Neven Archive in the future."
"!!!" Clovis finally realized what Silvia was trying to say. "So, you want Stefany to inherit the Dark Moon Mercenary. But with their current relationship, Stefany might be the head, but Vina will be the vice head.
"Vina will use the cover as the vice head to maintain the Stel Neven Archive. People will think it’s the Dark Emerald Group, which is controlling the information network, but it turns out to be Vina with the Stel Neven Archive."
"It looks like my great-grandson is much more amazing than his parents." Silvia smiled. "When I made this Stel Neven Archive, it only contained secrets that the Hacfield family possessed.
"There were people willing to buy that piece of information, so I asked them for information they possessed.
"If you think about the secret of the ten biggest companies in a country and their competitors trying to take them down, you can get a pretty good expansion rate. From one country’s secret to another.
"No one knew about the Stel Neven Archive and its power back then, so they didn’t mind trading information.
"And that was when I created a puppet. That map company... It was originally something I used to get a good route for my logistics, but that only happened during the day. During the night, I used its information to exchange even more information.
"The biggest reason the Hacfield family couldn’t expand to more than one country was not because we were happy in one country. It was because most of its resources were used to develop the Stel Neven Archive. We paid the people for the map, and before long, the Stel Neven Archive got information about things all around the world."
Clovis definitely didn’t know there was such a story behind the Stel Neven Archive.
"How long do you need to reach Tier 6?"
"Judging from the progress, I’m planning to return to Absalom first. And it shouldn’t take more than a week to become Tier 6. I have prepared everything. My people, including Reolf and Rea, should be able to reach that level even faster than me."
"In that case, I will use that time to tame the wild card."
"Tame the wild card?"
"Hoho. You don’t have to worry about that, my dear." Silvia smiled. "So, what do you want to know next?"
Clovis looked up for a moment before making a playful smile. "How about the dirt you have on Grandfather?"
"Hohohohohoohohoho...."
Silvia smiled. "I have told you everything you want to know. However, this road is extremely dangerous. If you continue on this path, you will have to face that guy."
"The Prophet." Clovis squinted his eyes. There was already bad blood between them, considering he was responsible for his grandmother’s death. In addition, if the information was correct, the one-eyed swordsman was also the Prophet’s puppet.
