Chapter 138: Herathan's Question

Xue Hua didn't know about a certain sad spy leader, and when he returned to his residence, he couldn't wait to open the scroll he had obtained from Himir, wanting to see what clues the underground merchant had gathered.

The two girls who were busy in the room also leaned over curiously, and checked the contents of the scroll with Xue Hua.

The records on the scrolls appear to be scattered, and most of the content is very unreliable rumors, apparently gossip that Himmill has gotten from some professional or other person.

There is also a part of the content that seems to be quite credible, but it is not helpful to Xue Hua.

Most of the clues involved in this part of the clues are obtained by some professionals from the sporadic accounts of the Hradic Mage Guild dug up by chance, and these clues mainly describe the shocking battle between Talasha and Baal at that time.

Although Xue Hua was also interested in the legendary mage hero, this information could not help him in his future trip.

However, as Xue Hua slowly continued to look back, a scattered piece of information quickly attracted his attention.

In fact, it wasn't the content of the message that first caught his attention, but the name mentioned in the message.

"Summoner" Herathan!

The name caught his attention almost instantly.

Because in the game, this so-called "summoner" Herathan is the small boss stationed at the mysterious shelter and the teleportation platform of the ancient tomb of Tarasya.

In the game, this guy is the chief mage of a very powerful group of mages whose spells can summon and control demons to their advantage.

In the end, in order to avoid being punished by the demon kings and gods for enslaving demons, he created a mysterious shelter as his refuge.

The guy hiding in Herathan's shelter in the background of the game is actually just an unlucky guy who accidentally wanders in there and is then taken over by Herathan's soul, and the real Herason should have died long ago.

After all, he could escape the pursuit of the demon gods, but he couldn't escape the passage of time.

However, in the historical context of this world, the Mystic Sanctuary was not created by Heradem, and even the Heradim Mage Guild did not mention him as a person.

And to create a stable shelter between reality and fantasy, at that time, only the Hradim Mages had the ability to do so.

Xue Hua originally thought that there should be no such person as Herathan in this world, but he didn't expect that he would still see this name in this scroll.

Thinking of this, he immediately stared at it and continued to look at it, wanting to see what clues about the ancient tomb of Talasha had left behind by the Heradens of this world.

However, this clue soon caused him an even greater shock after the name of Herathan.

Because the recorded information shows that Herathan had found the Hradic cube and opened the portal to the mysterious shelter under the guidance of a "sage", but after entering the mysterious shelter, he suddenly chose to betray the "sage" for some reason.

The Sage then took back the Hradic cube and abandoned him in a mysterious sanctuary.

The source of the record is unknown, it appears to be a page torn from a book, and the record is very vague, and many key locations have been hidden.

But even so, this small piece of information still had a great impact on Xue Hua.

The so-called "Sage" again!

Xue Hua muttered in his heart.

Is this so-called Sage the same person he had seen in the records of the Cat-People tribe before?

And this so-called Sage can still guide Heradin to the Heradic Cube?

Since that block can open the portal to the mysterious shelter, it proves that it should be genuine!

And the cube in his hand now was found in the hidden secret room of the sandworm queen cultivated by that guy, so it is very likely that the two sages are really the same individual!

But why did this so-called Sage ask Herathan to help him open the portal to the Sanctuary?

Can't he do it himself?

And why did Heraldham suddenly betray him after entering the sanctuary?

The most important thing is, where is the portal of that mysterious shelter?

Is it the same as in the game, in the palace prison?

What did the Sage want to do in the mysterious shelter?

Xue Hua's mind was almost occupied by one question after another, and these questions caused him to have no mind to look at the content behind the scroll at all.

Fortunately, after this record of Herathan, the scroll seemed to have reached its end, so Xue Hua simply put it away and put it back in the inventory.

The sisters sitting beside him saw that he was in a state of thought, so they got up lightly and walked away, so as not to disturb his thoughts.

Xue Hua sat in the soft chair like this, combing through the clues he had obtained so far, and at the same time discussing with Isha about the Sage in the mind of the main nest.

Soon, though, he had to put these things behind him for a while, as the Mother Worm Krissa contacted them and brought the news that the swarm had entered the edge of the sewer seal.

It reported to Xue Hua that the swarm had come into contact with a powerful psionic seal, and asked him if he wanted to break through it.

The seal of the royal family on the area where the sewers have been invaded by demons is undoubtedly very thorough.

Not only did they completely cut off the sewer from the outside world, but they also used a special sealing spell to wrap the entire invaded area.

This was done to prevent the demons from circumventing the seal from other broken areas and posing a threat to the city of Lugoin.

And judging from Lu Gaoyin's situation in recent years, the effect of this seal is undoubtedly quite good.

But the seal caused some trouble for the swarm to enter the sewer area.

"Isa, is there a way to send the swarm in without breaking the seal?"

Xue Hua asked with a frown.

He didn't want any unintended consequences from his actions, and besides, breaking into the sewers to get Rodament in trouble was just a backup plan for him.

Now that he'd got the Hradic cube and pretty much figured out the location of the serpentine ornament, he didn't want to touch the seal if it wasn't necessary.

"Juggernaut, you can use the inhibition spores of the toadstool to temporarily weaken the efficiency of the seal, creating a temporary gap in the seal layer so that the swarm can 'squeeze' through the gap.

The antimicrobial fog of the toadstool only absorbs psionic energy without destroying the structure of the psionic matrix, and we can use this property to achieve our goals.

However, if they do, there is a risk that Chrisha's swarm will lose contact with us entirely once they enter the seal, meaning they will have no reinforcements and will not be able to communicate their findings to the outside world until they leave the seal. ”

Isha gave Xue Hua an idea.

"Mother Worm Krisha, you have heard it, there is a certain danger in continuing this mission, I allow you to decide whether you want to continue to do it or not, if you choose to give up, then evacuate there with the swarm, there is no need to achieve this mission."

Xue Hua said to the insect mother in the mind of the main nest.

"It's my pleasure to be able to serve you, Juggernaut, there is no definition of 'give up' in the dictionary of the swarm, and we will definitely complete the task!"

However, Chrissa decided to continue the mission almost without thinking about it, and said in an extremely firm voice.

"Okay, then you go ahead, remember your mission, find that monster in my memory, kill it, and bring back everything that makes you feel the need to bring back, especially don't let go of scrolls and books!"

Xue Hua nodded, the swarm's allegiance to the Juggernaut could basically be said to be blind, so he had actually expected Chrysa's answer a long time ago.

The reason why it wants to make its own choice is actually because Xue Hua himself is actually very contradictory.

He wanted to see how different the world was from the setting in the game, but he didn't think it was worth it to risk the swarm with all his strength.

But now that the executors themselves have made up their minds, there is nothing to say.
