Chapter 613: Chapter 613: The Hidden Network

Elara and her team, exhausted but determined, began the process of analyzing the intelligence they had gathered from the Eclipsed Order's hideout. The hidden facility had provided crucial insights, but the true scale of the threat they faced was only beginning to emerge.

Their ultimate goal seems to be the creation of a powerful artifact capable of amplifying their influence."
