Chapter 1641: Chapter 498 Dragon Egg_2 Chapter 1641: Chapter 498 Dragon Egg_2 Speaking, he gulped down a mouthful of at soup and continued, “I also saw them organizing transport teams, pulling ropes, as if there were many things being hauled up…”
“Mhm.”
Sophia Jones listened and nodded slightly, her eyes showing contemplation.
Others didn’t take it too seriously, these days had been passing like this.
But listening, Leonard Churchill instinctively thought of a lot.
What was the purpose of the Holy Church developing the Death Domain at all costs?
Was it just to stop the Golden Dragon God Marlodis from returning from the Underworld?
But the Death Domain has always been here, so why had the Holy Church not sent people to develop it for tens of thousands of years?
The intelligence previously received only went down to the thirteenth layer.
Leonard Churchill asked, “Uncle East, what is the situation below the thirteenth layer?”
Dan Dong said, “Below the tenth layer, the Hell air is already very rich, and there’s a large number of Holy Church experts and powerful creatures. I didn’t find a suitable spot to go down further. However, as far as I observed, the fourteenth layer is a forest, the fifteenth layer has many traces of battle, and the sixteenth layer seems to be ancient relics, I’ve seen so man-made carved stone pillars…”
“…”
Leonard Churchill listened intently, a three-dinsional map already forming in his mind.
This Death Domain is like a huge cylindrical space, layered.
…
These days, since there were no particularly good opportunities and they had to wait for Leonard Churchill to advance, everyone didn’t take these news too seriously.
But now that Leonard Churchill has successfully advanced, many things could be planned.
“Uncle East, have you found the location of the [Nether Peacock]?”
“No. However, there are many Demon Beasts active near the roots of the World Tree, a lot of Demon Beasts are climbing up from the depths along the roots. There have been clashes between the rcenaries of the Holy Church and these Demon Beasts, and the losses in the past few days have been heavy… I’ve seen at least five Seventh-Order Magical Beasts, one Eighth Rank. And they all are unrecognized. Oh, I’ve sketched them, Brother Leonard Churchill, take a look, do you know what they are…”
“These are legendary Hellish Breed creatures, [Ghost-faced Spider], [Netherworld Dragon Eagle], [Two-tailed Hell Scorpion], [Three-Eyed Vengeful Ghost Monkey], and [Thorny Winged Snake]… Are all of these Demon Beasts’ sizes very large?”
“Yes, they are extrely huge! Each one is many tis larger than the normal Demon Beasts.”
“…”
Leonard Churchill looked at the Demon Beasts sketched by Uncle East and roughly guessed the origin of these creatures.
Obviously, the monsters in the depths of this Abyss have nearly all undergone ‘gigantism’ oriented mutations.
Sophia Jones looked at Leonard Churchill, who was deep in thought, and asked softly, “Sothing on your mind?”
Leonard Churchill said frankly, “Mutation in creatures has been confird to be influenced by the environnt, and it’s highly probable that this is related to the [Titan] Divine Race. So I’m thinking, what was Emperor Lanlingster looking for when He descended? And why did He return grievously wounded?”
Sophia Jones pondered for a mont and said, “Are you suggesting there might be so terrifying existence deep in the Death Domain?”
“Mhm.”
Leonard Churchill said, “If there is indeed so hidden danger, Dragon God Airel had tens of thousands of years to deal with it. But He hasn’t co, instead, the danger has persisted until now. This ans, either He thought it unnecessary, or… He dares not co.”
Upon saying this, the large cave fell into silence.
A chilling sensation crept up everyone’s spine.
If it’s the forr, it’s manageable; but if it’s the latter… it feels like they are bringing themselves to their doom?
A danger zone even Dragon Gods are wary to tread, yet they dare to venture here?
Yet upon this thought, precisely because the Dragon God dares not co, many Cannon Fodder have been sent to explore; it sounds reasonable.
However, before they could dwell on their extre fears, Leonard Churchill saw that they had been led astray by their thoughts and smiled, “Even if there is so terrifying existence, it won’t be that bad. Hmm… it’s like… when people see ants on the roadside, they don’t necessarily think of stepping on them.”
“…”
After this remark, everyone glanced at him and their eyes twitched in sync.
They felt there was sothing wrong with that analogy… but it inexplicably eased the tension.
At this ti, a slight smile appeared at the corners of Leonard Churchill’s mouth as he said, “The intelligence is too scant, I can’t ascertain much more.”
Saying this, he looked at Sophia Jones, “But if possible, I intend to go down and see the situation.”
Bonnie instantly lit up at the ntion, “Go down?”
The others felt the sa.
Risk was certain, but none here were averse to taking risks.
Thinking that the people of the Holy Church have gone, of course, they will go too.
Previously, they prioritized safety because Leonard Churchill was advancing; now that he has advanced, with another top combat power added to the team, they are even more ready to go.
Sophia Jones glanced at everyone, all tacit partners, and instantly knew what everyone was thinking.
Turning to Leonard Churchill, she asked, “When do we go?”
Leonard Churchill said, “Now.”
Saying this, he thought back to a detail in the previous conversation that everyone didn’t pay much attention to, “The people of the Holy Church are building rope ladders, this is to move big items. I want to see what those things really are…”
It wasn’t just curiosity about the items, but also, through the products transported, he could get more accurate intelligence.
Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes sparkled anew.
As the perpetual opportunists of the Revolutionary Army, experience told them, there must be good things among those big items.
Bonnie thought for a mont, hesitated and said, “But Leonard Churchill, could those ‘big items’ be bait? Like last ti at the camp…”
Leonard Churchill replied, “It’s possible, but unlikely. Now whether it’s the Sun Sect or the Crimson Sect, their focus is on the relics on the sixteenth layer. Even if those ‘big items’ are of certain value, splitting forces to rob openly isn’t worth it. Plus, by stealing and exposing themselves, they would suffer more loss than gain…”
