"We are now in the private chat channel. The following voices can only be heard by you and me."
Mu You explained to the woman first, then said, "Now, you can introduce yourself in detail to me."
"Didn’t you just say not to reveal our real identities casually?" the woman said.
"That’s for the others, I’m different. I’m the arbiter here, like an admin. I need to confirm your identity to be responsible for the meeting and the other members... Besides, although you’ve obtained the Taurus Bull Ring, you are not a part of the Sorcerer’s society yet. Your official enrollment will be determined after my examination," Mu You said.
"Was this rule mentioned before?" the woman started to recall the rules she heard before entering the portal.
"It’s my new addition," said Mu You.
"Did the others also go through your examination when they joined?" the woman frowned.
"No, but you are different from them," said Mu You.
"Because I am not a fool?"
"You can understand it that way," said Mu You.
The woman didn’t say anything more, but thought for a moment and asked, "What are the benefits of joining your association?"
"The Sorcerer’s Society isn’t a compulsory organization, but a platform for sorcerers to exchange and trade..."
Mu You also briefly explained the purpose of the Sorcerer’s Society and some basic matters to her.
The woman seemed a little interested after listening, "So, here we can exchange not only magic, but also our needs in reality. As long as we give enough rewards, we can entrust others to complete them, right?"
"In theory, yes," Mu You nodded.
The woman seemed increasingly interested and asked, "So, the most crucial condition is to help you defeat that organization called the ’Wizard Association’, right?"
Mu You looked at the woman somewhat strangely.
The key reason he blocked others from chatting privately with the woman was that he needed to test her relationship with the Wizard Association through conversation.
When a stranger joins the Sorcerer’s Society, the first priority is to ensure that this person is not from the Wizard Association, otherwise it would invite the wolf into casa.
The woman’s response made him feel a bit surprised. ’That organization called the Wizard Association,’ this kind of statement, made it seem like she didn’t know what the Wizard Association was...
"Have you... ever heard of the Wizard Association?" Mu You asked.
"No." As expected, she shook her head, her tone quite calm and reasonable, and behind this calmness, there was another meaning: she didn’t need to know, no matter what organization it was, she didn’t care. This demonstrated her tremendous confidence in her own power.
"You... what era are you from?" Mu You asked with a frown.
The Wizard Association is currently the most powerful and prosperous organization in Star Spirit World. If a person from Star Spirit World does not know about the Wizard Association, it could only mean that her information source is extremely isolated. Moreover, the era she was born in is probably even older than the history of the Wizard Association...
"I am the Lord of the Abyss. I live in the depths of the abyss all year round. I know little about the external powers and have no interest in them." Instead of answering directly, the woman emphasized her identity: A reclusive expert who has lived at the bottom of the abyss for many years and disdains to learn about the powers in the outside world.
However, Mu You was not convinced by this. If she were truly such an haughty person, why did she repeatedly say ’interesting’ when she had just heard his description of the Sorcerers’ Society?
"By the abyss, do you mean the Lochmaddy Abyss?" Mu You asked.
"Yes." She nodded in affirmation.
"Why do you live there?" Mu You asked. The Lochmaddy Abyss is one of the most dangerous areas on the land of Star Spirit World. Even beasts do not dare to approach it, let alone humans.
"No reason. I just got used to the environment of the abyss and didn’t want to leave," said the woman.
The woman’s words sounded absolute, but Mu You sensed a hint of insincerity in her words. The greater likelihood was that she just couldn’t leave the abyss, rather than she didn’t want to.
In other words, she was trapped at the bottom of the abyss by something or some force.
This was hinted at by the chains that appeared on her spiritual body earlier.
This person even had the power to almost break free from the black fog just now, but in the end she was pulled back by the chains. This only shows that the chains were a more advanced sealing method than the current black fog.
"So where did your Taurus Bull Ring come from?" Mu You asked.
Taurus must have died on Earth, otherwise he would have had the opportunity to resurrect according to the rules of Star Spirit World.
But this woman clearly stated that she had been living at the bottom of Great Abyss for many years, which was completely unrelated to Taurus.
But where did this leave us? Had Taurus somehow teleported his legacy and ring to the bottom of the abyss after his death?
"This is a secret." The woman shook her head indicating she wouldn’t say, because this involved a space fissure, which was one of her bargaining chips in future meetings.
"What’s your level?" Mu You didn’t dwell on the previous question.
"Levels have no meaning to me. All you need to understand is that I am the most powerful being in the abyss," the woman said.
The woman didn’t answer, but frowned and said: "Haven’t you asked enough questions? The ones you’ve asked before already sufficiently prove my identity, and that I have no affliation with your so-called enemy forces."
