Chapter 638: Sowing Discord

Tina could easily imagine the scenario as she pulled out a document from her bag and handed it to Lysander. "I want to see the finished product in three days. Handle it yourself."

Lysander took the document, which turned out to be a more advanced camera device, made of transparent crystal material. If installed as the eyes in a bionic robot, there would be no discernible difference from human eyes! "I assure you, I will complete this task," he declared.

This was Lysander's first mission since joining the Mountain Veil Order, and he dared not slack off. He had to complete it flawlessly, to impress Tina and prove that he was her most capable assistant, not Jared!

"Hmm." Tina watched Lysander's confident demeanor and nodded silently.

She saw this as an opportunity for him to prove himself, regardless of whether he could complete the task or not, she would eventually expose the traitor. The reason she had Lysander approach people was to train him, lest the boy be unaware of the perils within the Mountain Veil Order, mistaking it for a mere adventure game.

After giving her instructions, Tina was about to leave when Lysander was about to speak, but then a deep, magnetic voice came from ahead, "Tina, I'm here."

Both Tina and Lysander looked up, their expressions changing simultaneously. However, Tina was pleased, whereas Lysander was annoyed.

"Uncle! Did you bring me a strawberry cake?" Tina ran towards Jared like a little girl, diving into his arms with eyes sparkling at the thought of strawberry cake.

Jared playfully ruffled Tina's hair. "Why don't you look at me first instead of your strawberry cake?"

"Uncle's homemade strawberry cake is delicious, give it to me now!"
