Chapter 422: Ancient Secrets
Before discussing the battle plan, Thea recounted her experiences with Rick and Sonia in the Orc Alliance.
Listening to Thea's soft voice slowly telling the thrilling story, Rogge felt a sense of peace in his heart. After all, the three of them are safe and sound, and these experiences are really just stories.
"The worst wound I ever suffered was inflicted by a saint-level assassin. He deliberately hid his energy traits, but I still recognized his strange form, he was a blood wolf. Thea said.
"Blood Wolf ......," Rogge mused, "We found out that the upper echelons of the Wild Wolf Adventure Group had an affair with alien demons in that spatial barrier where there was a sacred tree, and the blood wolf also entered the barrier himself, but we didn't encounter it. ”
"That's right, I heard from Lao Cha that he drove the blood wolf away, but I didn't expect this villain to assassinate Sister Thea, it's really damned!" Orfina said angrily.
Thea stretched out her hand to take the drink handed over by Rogge, and said, "The organization is already a little powerless just to deal with the direct threat of the aliens, and the monitoring of the major adventure groups is not strong. Before, we only suspected that the high-level adventuring group members were colluding with the demons, and there was no substantial evidence, but now it seems that the infiltration of the demons is beyond imagination. ”
Rog suddenly asked, "How well does the organization know about the Goblin Kingdom?" ”
Thea thought for a moment and said, "As far as I know, the Order doesn't pay much attention to goblins. I know that the Order has sent people to investigate the Goblin Kingdom, but nothing has been found. What, Goblins have a problem too? What did you find in the Underworld? ”
"Just suspicion. The Goblin Kingdom trades with the Lands of Chaos, buying mostly spirit stones and minerals, as well as various items from the world of Hess. I get the impression that they seem to be curious about the world. ”
"Goblins are an ancient race, and they shouldn't be curious about the world of Hess."
Listening to Rogge's words, Thea closed her eyes, and opened them again after a moment, "Maybe...... Not a goblin? But it shouldn't be a demon. The people sent by the organization to gather intelligence around the world are the best people, and if the goblins have anything to do with the demons, they will definitely be able to find out. ”
"Eh, do you think there are any other demons besides alien demons?"
Orfina said as she ate the fruit that Rogge had fed.
The girl opened her mouth, but found that the feeding was suspended, and looked up, only to see Rog frozen there and Thea looking at each other, and the two of them had a sparkle in their eyes, as if they were making eye contact.
Orfina stretched out her little hand and slapped Rogge's eyes, interrupting the two of them's "eyebrows", and said angrily: "You are not allowed to flirt in front of me!" ”
"Ahem." Rogge coughed lightly, "I think that's right." ”
"Is it right not to flirt?" Thea suddenly popped up with such a sentence.
The three of them were all stunned, you look at me, I look at you, they are all a little overwhelmed.
Orfina's eyes flickered, and a wicked smile appeared on her cheeks, and she was about to say something to "mock" Thea, or Rogge reacted faster to avoid things going in a more embarrassing direction.
He took Orfina in his arms and said busily, "I mean, there may be some magic right. Thea, is there one? ”
Thea pursed her lips, "Yes." Or rather, there used to be, and now I don't know. ”
"Can you tell us about it?"
“…… It wouldn't have been. Now, you're helping me fight against the demons, and I have the right to know about this world, so I'll tell you. ”
Thea smoothed a bunch of windblown hair behind her ear and said slowly: "According to the records of the organization, it is not only the Red Abyss World that has invaded the Hess World, a long time ago, an earth-shattering war broke out, and countless worlds participated in it. ”
"At that time, our Hess world was only a middle-class world with overall strength, but it was rich in resources and a vast world, and it was targeted by many powerful worlds."
"At that time, there was no demon hunter organization, only its predecessor, the Guardian Alliance."
"At that time, there were a lot of otherworldly rifts, and the difficulty of opening an otherworldly rift was far less difficult than it is now, so the Hess world can be said to be full of holes."
"There were thirteen Venerable Beings in the Fellowship of the Ring at that time, and they weighed it again and again and decided to take a dangerous move. They devised a plan to stop the invasion in one fell swoop. ”
"The secret text of the organization does not record how this plan was implemented, only that there is only one of the thirteen Venerables left in the end, and the plan succeeded."
"Since then, the difficulty of the Otherworldly Rift to appear in the Hess world has greatly increased, as if it has closed itself and escaped from the chaos of the major worlds."
"Although the Hess world is very rich, the major worlds are very busy, and there is no need to gnaw on this difficult bone and give up one after another."
"But at that time, there were still a large number of aliens who remained in the Heth world, and the Red Abyss Alien was one of them. With the loss of twelve powerful Venerables, the combat power of the Hess world has been greatly weakened, and it can only survive under the leadership of the last Venerable. ”
"Fortunately, the greed of the invaders has ruined them, they all want the dominance of the Hess world, fighting each other, and their strength is getting weaker and weaker."
"At that time, the world of Hess was united, and the last Venerable was a transcendent person, who joined forces and gradually defeated the people of the other world, and by the time they reacted, it was already too late."
"After several battles, His Holiness temporarily cleaned up all the people from the other world, and the world of Hess finally returned to peace."
"But the price was terrible, His Holiness was seriously injured, and died shortly after the establishment of the Demon Hunter Organization. The whole world is shattered and no longer livable. The rest had to retreat into the barrier and wait for the world to recover. ”
Thea's tone was unfazed, but there was a strong sense of history between the lines. For the first time, Rogge and Orfina heard about the secrets of the ancients, and they couldn't help but be immersed in it.
"This is also ...... That's cool! Orfina listened excitedly.
"Isn't it cool? I feel a little sad. Thea's pointed ears shrugged, and her mood was not very high.
Seeing this, Orfina left Rogge's arms and sat down beside Thea, put her arm around her shoulders and whispered, "Sister, what's wrong with you?" Am I saying something wrong? ”
"Nothing." Thea shook her head, "Everyone has a different perception of ancient things. There are people in the organization who think that the people of the other world are hateful, and there are people who have great respect for the Venerables of that time, and there are people like you and me. ”
"Rogge, what do you think?" Thea tilted her head to look at it, her beautiful eyes were smart, and she seemed to be interested in how Rogge answered.
Rogge thought for a moment and said, "I...... Nothing to feel. Or rather, it feels complicated. ”
"Yes." Thea nodded, "When I first heard about the ancients, I felt the same way. ”
"But I have a couple of questions." Rogge Dao.
The corners of Thea's mouth were hooked, and she had an expression that was really like this: "You ask." ”
"How did that chaotic war that involved countless worlds begin? And how does it work? Is it still going on? ”
"I can't answer these three questions."
"Is that plan that sacrificed the twelve Venerables related to space power? Is it related to the fantasy world? ”
"It has something to do with the power of space, and I guess it has something to do with the formation of an ethereal world. But exactly, I don't know. ”
"Then you just said that the last Venerable temporarily cleaned up the people from the other world. Why temporary? ”
Thea smiled slightly, "I can answer you about this." Because the Venerable One is as strong as he can't wipe out all the people from the other world, he can only seal them up. So the otherworldly people did not die, but only left the Overworld temporarily. ”
"The Seal of His Holiness...... Will it come loose? Rogge couldn't help but ask.
"Yes." Thea nodded affirmatively, "Whether it's vandalism or the weakening of the seal over time, one day, the Otherworldly will come to the Overworld again." "Lewen
"Behind the goblins, are the other otherworldly?"
"Quite possibly."
The three of them fell silent, unexpectedly that the problem of alien demons had not been solved, and it was very likely that a new situation had arisen here in the goblin.
Thea sighed lightly: "Rogge, your discovery is important, I will report it to the chief." ”
"Destroy the Holy Gate of Cartagena, will the Demon Hunter Leader come?"
"No, it won't. The alien demon has made a big move this time, and there is a bigger crisis elsewhere. Not to mention the leader, the organization's support is very limited, and we must be prepared to go it alone. ”
"One last question. Did the people who retreated into the enchantment after the Battle of the Ancients come out? ”
"Some came out, and the leader is."
"Why don't they all come out?"
"Because they can't get out, they ...... It's also sealed, and it's a stronger seal than the otherworldly. I don't know who did it, I don't know how to unravel it. ”
"And how did your leader come out?" Orfina asked.
"Through the unstable spatial rift, there are very few people who come out."
"And what race is he? Is it an elf? Orfina asked curiously.
"It's not." Thea shook her head, "It's the Guling Clan, I haven't seen the true face of the leader, and I don't know what the Guling Patriarch looks like." ”
"Is the leader a man or a woman?"
"It should be male."
Orfina lost interest in an instant and yawned.
If it's a young lady, maybe she can flirt with it, forget about the man, she has Rogge.
"By the way, we discovered that the goblin deal with the Lands of Chaos was brokered by the Adventurers' Guild and several major adventure parties, including 'Divine Light' Julius."
"Thea, does the organization have any information about Julius?"
"It has nothing to do with alien demons, and its relationship with other otherworldly people is unknown."
"Hmph, that Golden Shining is a big villain, Sister Thea, you have to check him out!"
Thea rubbed Orfina's little head, "Definitely." ”
Now that Thea's experience and ancient secrets are over, the topic returns to the current question, how to destroy the Gate of the Holy Descent?
The answer that the three came up with was relatively simple, go to Cartagena.
The situation of the Empire's northwestern defense line is unknown, and they will not have enough time to go back to Cartagena now.
If the Empire is winning now, that's the best. If not, you'll have to try your best.
"Okay, after all that, everyone is sleepy!" Orfina rubbed her eyes.
At this time, it is late, the moon and stars are scarce, and it is usually time to sleep.
"Brother, my bathtub heats up automatically, and the water in it won't be cold tomorrow. If you don't dislike me and Sister Thea, go take a bath. ”
Orfina turned her head, and where could she still see Rogge's figure, only the closed tent door.
Such hot bath water, of course, can't be wasted!
