Stepping down from the levitating carriage, Matthew gazed at the throngs of passersby, many familiar and unfamiliar faces among them, a certain feeling welled up in his heart.
He had now successfully infiltrated the enemy's ranks!
Even the most formidable fortress could one day be conquered from within.
Matthew was in no hurry now, slowly developing his territory was the true path to power.
Having long come to this conclusion, Matthew was quite relaxed as he "sized up" each arcanist.
He was picking a "target," searching for suitable skills and advanced expertise.
Even though he had discussed much with the Grand Arcanist and made some arrangements,
the chances of achieving his goal were still only about 30%.
Not wanting this trip to go to waste, Matthew naturally sought some additional gains.
After all, most of the arcanists from the Nesserite Empire would be gathered here.
