Learning all the new information led me to one location in the Luminous Continent. The one that is being described by the boy is the only factory with that tree that he mentioned that he has seen. I am quite sure of it as that is one of the factories that was tasked to be defended by the Anti-Rebellion forces from the rebels who will attack and destroy it. After our successful defense, we gained lots of golems as a backup in a fight during that time. Who would have thought that defending that place would end up slaughtering multiple angels and fallen and turning them into fuel?
It's kinda disturbing that we permit them to kill multiple people just so we can have new backups and make new golems using the dead for some reason. I don't like it at all. But after receiving the valuable information, there is no need for me to withhold the information. I immediately relayed it to Alain.

"Is what you just said now true?"
"Yes. I can confirm it. There is no other place other than the one he mentioned and I am quite sure of it."
"Give me a few hours, Bladeheart. I needed to look into this matter seriously first. I will ask my spies to look into this factory you are talking about before I issue a rescue operation. This factory is big so I will also be deploying others as well to secure an all-out attack after the confirmation. In the meantime, I want you to investigate a new rumor I heard that the tactician was brewing something and I want you to sabotage that. I heard they had some prints of what they are planning and I ask you to take them and bring them here. This is an easy task and if you want to go and beat or kill any of them, go ahead, I am not stopping you. You just needed to sabotage the meeting. As long as you sabotage what they are plotting, the better it will be for us."
"Alright."
"Good. Expect results in a few hours. Perhaps once you are back from your mission, we might get new info and I might issue a new quest soon enough."
And so, I sabotaged a plan. It was some kind of plan that they need to implement to easily obtain more of the life essence and how they can get away with the crime without alerting the masses. I killed all of them before they can tell anyone of their side of the story and report it to the tactician that I am the enemy.
Because it was an easy and boring task, I easily cleared it without any problem. I handed it to Alain and after he acquired the plan, he throws it into the fireplace and burned it. I might have done the task as quickly as I can but the investigation was quicker. When I arrived earlier, the spy was already there waiting for my arrival.
Due to the precious intel that I found and provided to Alain, the investigation was done at the earliest convenience, revealing that it was indeed a factory that produces golems at the expense of using the lives of others to fuel and power up the golems and operate them.
"This is unacceptable. Just using up the lives of others to operate something inanimate? These guys have lost their minds. I don't even know what they are thinking anymore. I can't believe I once was a devout believer of their teachings only to know that they are like this," Alain gritted his teeth as he slams his fist on the table.
"You were a devout believer before?" I frowned.
"Indeed I was. Pretty much someone who would believe what they are saying until I finally been awakened by their sh*t. Now that I am knowing more and more, I am getting more and more pissed. We will deploy the squads immediately. Bladeheart, I suggest you take this quest. You can also ask the two to also join as well. We will crush that factory, stop it from reproduction and destroy it before it can consume other lives."
"I agree with Alain this time around. The security is pretty lax in the facility and I barely see any guards. There are lots of grunts here and there but they are not a problem to you guys so I won't be mentioning them at all. The main problem is the golems. Since it was a golem factory, there will be no shortage of golems there waiting to be activated so it will be either an easy fight or an arduous one," the spy warned.
"Thanks for the info but that isn't much of a problem."
"Anyways, Bladeheart, this mission will become our first step in stopping the Tactician from his plans, and whatever the pope is trying to do, we will be going to thwart it. The mission will begin in three days. Prepare for it, and invite the other two as well. They are free to decline but they are welcome to join."
I can see the anger in Alain's eyes. Although he looked calm, his fists are showing signs of his veins popping out of his skin. He is too angry that at this point, I am not even gonna bother talking much to him.
I don't know what caused him to become a rebel but there must be some sort of past Alain had for him to be so committed to his rebellion. Perhaps the oppressors he is trying to defeat might have done something to him. Whatever it is, I don't have an idea. It all depends on whether he is willing to share it or not.
But still, this is going to be the first big quest that involves in crippling the anti-rebellion squad's power. Without the power of the golems, the rebellion will be a tad much easier. If this is considered evil by the masses of NPCs, then it is the necessary evil that is needed to be done to expose the true villains in this society.
