To be honest, Sun Tong was already at the Ancestral Master Level, and he was soone who existed within a century after the cataclysm, which is quite a long ti ago.
And the main reason why his remains have yet to be found is naturally the sheer difficulty; otherwise, such a figure would have been discovered and given a high-standard burial long ago.
But according to An Xinng, the reason Sun Tong’s remains haven’t been found is simply because it’s too difficult, so they haven’t succeeded until now.
Of course, this is also related to the potential rewards...
If the rewards were sufficient, people would undertake even the most dangerous endeavors.
No one does unprofitable business, but many are willing to engage in life-threatening deals.
"If it’s appropriate, I wouldn’t mind taking a trip myself to see." Lin Ye said directly.
The danger zones around the Shenzhen settlent are indeed incomparable to those around Shan City, with the demon levels here hovering around Level 60.
In so areas, there are even demons above Level 90.
In the map explored by the Alliance Army, several areas where Hundred-Level Demons appear have been marked, warning adventurers not to venture into these areas lightly.
If the place where Sun Tong fell isn’t too dangerous, Lin Ye wouldn’t find it too hard to explore it a bit.
As long as it’s not a place with Hundred-Level Demons, Lin Ye can basically traverse it with ease, coming and going freely.
"You’re going by yourself?" An Xinng’s eyes widened, clearly surprised.
Her original intention was for Lin Ye to diate, have the Alliance mobilize the troops to find Sun Tong’s remains, and see if they could retrieve Sun Tong’s tools along the way.
The only thought she had regarding Sun Tong’s tools was to be able to borrow them for a while...
In her view, the relics of such an Ancestral Master Level figure are undoubtedly holy artifacts, not sothing a junior like her could covet.
Being able to borrow them would be like her ancestors’ graves producing green smoke, a sign of great fortune.
"For such matters, there’s no need to involve the Alliance Army; they have more important tasks to handle." Lin Ye shook his head.
The Alliance Army is stationed on battlefields at several space distortion nodes, and so are even permanently stationed within the Abyss, at the very front line against the Abyss Demon God.
It can be said that every move the Alliance Army makes is watched by the Abyss Demon God.
If the Alliance Army were to be mobilized, it would cause too much commotion and could trigger various other issues; it can’t just be mobilized at will.
As for Lin Ye, although he held an honorary commander title in the Alliance’s Holy Knight Legion, he didn’t have actual military authority, and by all rights, he couldn’t mobilize this legion.
If he were to resort to using connections to et his own needs by mobilizing the Alliance Army, it would be sowhat unreasonable, and Lin Ye would never do such a thing.
Upon hearing this, An Xinng lowered her head, stuck out her tongue, feeling a bit embarrassed.
She hadn’t considered all this; to her, leaving a great figure like Sun Tong exposed in the wilderness was quite improper.
"You should head back first. If I find and return with the tools, I’ll let you know." Lin Ye said.
An Xinng still hesitated, but ultimately nodded, saying, "Alright! Then I’ll head out first!"
She was actually quite regretful; had she known Lin Ye planned to go alone, she wouldn’t have ntioned it.
After all, the dangers of this trip needed no explanation; it couldn’t possibly be sothing completed easily.
But she also understood that she didn’t have the influence to persuade Lin Ye not to take the risk...
The key point is that everyone’s definition of danger is completely different, especially for Professionals; this is even more the case.
In her perspective, sothing very dangerous might not pose any danger at all in Lin Ye’s view, which isn’t surprising.
"Alright, but rember, don’t ntion this to anyone, got it?" Lin Ye added.
This sentence seed to carry a strange magic; upon hearing it, An Xinng’s gaze even montarily dazed.
"Okay." She instinctively replied but firmly etched Lin Ye’s advice in her mind.
This matter must absolutely not be ntioned to anyone!
Seeing this, Lin Ye’s eyes flickered with satisfaction; the Mind Control skill he acquired from the Tower Lord was incredibly useful.
Especially for small matters like this, it was very effective.
Although An Xinng might be trustworthy, the people around her might not be, so it was necessary to have this extra layer of security.
Lin Ye certainly didn’t want his whereabouts to be accidentally exposed.
Especially in the current environnt, every move he made would attract various attention, with unknown malicious intents.
Especially with Zhao Tianci, who ranks just below Liu Tianyuan, already awoken, Lin Ye dared not be careless.
As An Xinng left, Lin Ye also quietly slipped away from the center area.
The place An Xinng ntioned where Sun Tong fell is actually sowhat famous.
That place used to be part of the original Shenzhen, before being completely overrun during a demon riot, and later occupied by dangerous demons, it was never reclaid.
Additionally, the route there mostly traverses treacherous mountainous forests, with no developnt value, so it was never prioritized for reclamation.
The Alliance’s standards for reclaiming danger zones primarily assess habitability, then the possibility of connecting with nearby settlents, and finally, the reclamation difficulty.
The area around the school doesn’t et any of these criteria, plus the persistent presence of dangerous demons, the difficulty of reclamation is quite high, making it one of the least valuable areas according to the Alliance’s standards.
Quite a few Professionals venture into that area, hunting high-level demons, gathering relics left by predecessors and so on...
Yet, over the years, that area has been thoroughly visited by adventurers, but Sun Tong’s whereabouts remain undiscovered.
This truly is quite baffling.
"Prepare, then teleport directly!"
Under normal circumstances, reaching that area would take at least half a month.
After all, the demons along the way are not just there for show.
But as a Space Mage, Lin Ye doesn’t need to do that; as long as he can find the teleportation array coordinates near that area, he can teleport there anyti, anywhere.
