Chapter 734: Chapter 729: Green Alliance
Mangites Green Race Union.
This is an organization purely made up of the Green Race, abbreviated as the "Green Alliance" on the Silver Heart Continent.
From the name alone, you can judge the exclusivity of this organization, whose core only accepts members of the Green Race, while other human groups can only join the periphery of the Green Alliance.
Bai Pu stayed quietly at the Green City Manor for over ten days, getting acquainted with some gardeners and cleaners, and he roughly understood the basic structure of this massive organization.
The Green Alliance consists of three core families:
Starlight, Moon Language, Silver Wind.
Miss Salacia is a direct lineage member of the Silver Wind Clan. The main stronghold of the Silver Wind Clan in the Inner City District of Lingshu City is the Green City Manor.
Aside from these three core families, there are also many medium and small Green Race families that rely on the three families, jointly forming this giant entity known as the Green Alliance.
Just from the number of seats the "Silver Heart Council" holds, one can see the difference in strength among the various families.
The Green Alliance has a total of forty-nine council members in the Silver Heart Council, with the Starlight Clan holding twenty-one seats, the Moon Language Clan fourteen seats, and the Silver Wind Clan nine seats.
The remaining five seats are from other medium-sized Green Race families.
Every council member of the Silver Heart Council is not only individually powerful but also has tremendous influence.
They can already cause upheaval within a certain range, and when multiple council members unite, the energy they generate can even impeach the City Lords of the Five Great Cities, causing dramatic changes.
Bai Pu still doesn’t know the weight of his identity as a "Gaia Group’s Preparatory Core Member." For something like this, only Miss Salacia would be willing to tell him, and he hasn’t seen Miss Salacia these recent ten days.
According to a maid in the manor, "Ah Mo’Er," Miss Salacia went to stay briefly at "Muji Manor."
Bai Pu curiously asked, "Is Muji Manor also a property of the Silver Wind Clan?"
Ah Mo’Er covered her mouth, chuckling, "Little Bai, don’t you know the origins of Muji Manor?"
Bai Pu shook his head.
Ah Mo’Er said, "You really don’t know anything. The Muji Clan is an important member of the Green Alliance. Among their ranks is a young genius, Young Master Zorath Muji, who is quite renowned across the Silver Heart Continent."
Zorath?
The name sounded familiar, and Bai Pu recalled.
While surfing the Gaia Network, Bai Pu saw the "Zorath’s Celestial Mystical Arts Exploration" priced at 2000 Silver Dragon Coins, with quite a few downloads.
It seems that this Green Race individual named Zorath Muji is a prominent figure on the Silver Heart Continent.
"Miss Salacia stays at Muji Manor... is it for Zorath Muji? Is she pursuing him?"
The eldest daughter of a core family and a young talent from an important clan indeed sounds like a match made in heaven.
Ah Mo’Er’s smile carried a hint of amusement as she said, "Miss Salacia and Young Master Zorath already have a marriage contract. However... this contract was set when they were young, whether it will come to fruition remains uncertain."
"Why?"
"Because Young Master Zorath has someone in his heart... Who in Green City Manor doesn’t know that the one Young Master Zorath truly likes is Miss Julian, Miss Salacia’s younger sister? But Miss Julian is an illegitimate child and doesn’t dare compete with Miss Salacia."
What kind of sensational high-society drama is this...
Bai Pu slightly shook his head. Although it’s a sensational high-society drama, Bai Pu still needed to gather this kind of information, as one never knows when it might prove useful.
Currently, it’s the Inner City District, filled with Evolver experts, many far stronger than Bai Pu.
In such an environment, Bai Pu’s strength isn’t enough to break through the situation, nor is he qualified to even have equitable talks with Evolvers; he can only rely on clever force.
Upon hearing this sensational high-society drama, Bai Pu deliberately said:
"Sister Ah Mo’Er, this doesn’t seem right? Miss Julian is an illegitimate child, her status should be far inferior to that of Miss Salacia, the legitimate eldest daughter. No matter how you think about it, Young Master Zorath wouldn’t abandon Miss Salacia to choose Miss Julian."
Ah Mo’Er enjoyed the feeling of showing off in front of Bai Pu; that younger sister title practically relieved four liang of her bones.
"You just don’t understand. Although Miss Julian is an illegitimate child, she’s gentle and kind, and has quite a talent in Alchemy. Whereas Miss Salacia, though the legitimate eldest daughter, is capricious and hard to get along with... If I were Young Master Zorath, I would definitely choose Miss Julian as well. Moreover..."
Ah Mo’Er looked around seeing no one, deliberately leaned in closer to Bai Pu, whispering:
"Besides, even though Miss Julian is an illegitimate child, she’s highly favored by the Patriarch. In the future, being formally reintegrated into the family and becoming the heir might not be impossible."
Bai Pu’s ear itching from the warm breath.
He subtly stepped back half a step, avoiding Ah Mo’Er’s proximity, while pondering:
[Salacia is capricious and hard to get along with? Where does this perception come from? It doesn’t seem like it.]
During their brief time in the hovercar, Miss Salacia had given Bai Pu a rather warm impression, she didn’t seem difficult to get along with.
Seeing the unbelieving look on Bai Pu’s face, Ah Mo’Er shrugged, "I forgot to mention, Miss Salacia is a standard member of the Appearance Lovers Club... She might be gentle to you because you’re good-looking, even more so than many pure-blooded Green Race individuals."
Saying this, Ah Mo’Er raised her eyebrows at Bai Pu, "Little Bai, have you ever been in love? Want to try it with sister? I’m a permanent resident of the Inner City District, marrying me can get you a permanent residency permit for the Inner City District, you know."
Bai Pu found it rather troublesome.
Just then, a voice sounded from afar:
"Bai Yujing! Bai Yujing! Miss Salacia is looking for you; go to the banquet hall quickly!"
Bai Pu followed the voice, seeing a large, tall Green Race individual running towards him. He recognized this as one of Miss Salacia’s Evolver followers, Vian Silverwind.
Bai Pu apologized to Ah Mo’Er, then went forward to meet him.
Vian Silverwind, the Evolver follower, complained, "Bai Yujing, you should buy a Gaia mobile terminal! Otherwise, it’s really troublesome to find you."
Bai Pu smiled, "Mr. Vian, I need to get a formal ID card before I can purchase a Gaia Terminal. Why don’t you tell Miss Salacia to let me go out once?"
Vian quickly shook his head, "Before Miss Salacia goes for the next rank trial task, you cannot leave the manor."
This was to prevent Bai Pu from leaking secrets; the two Evolver followers had warned Bai Pu about it well before coming.
"Alright, I was just saying, Mr. Vian. After all, I haven’t saved enough Silver Dragon Coins to buy a Gaia Terminal." Bai Pu smiled as he walked with Vian towards the banquet hall.
