Klein felt from the strength of Victor's hand that this man had become hostile. If the next answer could not satisfy the other party and if he kept anything hidden, he would definitely face huge trouble.
The other party is obviously a seer, and Klein knows his abilities well. It is extremely irrational to go against a seer under the current circumstances.
As a result, the panic and bewilderment in his eyes disappeared, and his pretended expression instantly turned into calm.
This is the high-ranking member of the Senate, the descendant of an ancient family, the balancing hand between the underworld and the Privy Council, the conspirator who dares to go to sea without telling his allies to search for ancient treasures...
"Common people are always ignorant in my eyes, but you are different from others."
This was the first thing Klein said after taking off his disguise.
"Do you think I should be stupid? Come on, stop talking nonsense and tell me everything you know." Victor's hand did not relax.
Klein slowly squatted back, looking warily into the deep forest.
"More than a month ago, I got a nautical chart, which marked the secret of ancient treasure hidden somewhere."
"The person who gave me the nautical chart was a woman, but now I prefer to call her 'bitch'. She gave me this nautical chart on a condition that was unacceptable to me, and I couldn't refuse.
"
"If I follow her plan, even if I can finally obtain the treasure and bring the Besarius family back to glory, I will end up becoming an out-and-out puppet."
"This goes against my honor as the heir of the Besarius family. I will not let that woman manipulate me at will, so I chose to carry her on my back and go to sea alone and arrive here..."
"At first, I didn't know the truth here. I thought the treasure was located on the island called Akkad."
"My ship was not overturned by the attack, but dropped anchor near the island, and then ordered my knights to lead people into the island to explore."
"However, the secret of the treasure is hidden so deeply that I found clues from the nautical charts and thought that it was actually hidden under this uninhabited island and could only be discovered by going to the bottom of the sea."
"So, I, my knight, and two other mercenaries put on diving equipment, entered the water near the ship, and swam to the bottom of the sea."
"The amazing thing is that the water near the desert island is very deep, and it does not maintain a certain gentle slope. It is bottomless."
"Losa and I...well, I haven't introduced you to my dead vassal, the knight of the Besarius family. He was a seer and has been loyal to my family all his life."
"Okay, back to the topic, the two of us determined that the abyss under the sea was the key passage to the secret, so we dived in first, and then, a very strange thing happened..."
As he said this, the treetops above his head suddenly began to sway, as if a huge strong wind was blowing from the treetops, and there was a rapid and unusual sound in the entire fir forest.
Klein's voice stopped suddenly, his brows furrowed, and his mood became increasingly tense.
Victor noticed something unusual about him and thought: Maybe this guy was not lying about what he said about the cedar forest.
"Your story is too long. Why don't you talk about the devil you just mentioned - Humbaba? Do you know what it looks like?"
Klein leaned against the dirt bag behind him and whispered to Victor: "Actually, this legend comes from clay tablets from ancient times. Archaeological experts unearthed some tablets recording the history of the dynasty from the old site of the Uruk Dynasty.
Although the clay tablets were incomplete, they still organized some poems and myths."
Victor understood: "In other words, the story you just told me was not told to you by the indigenous people in the city, but what you read in the research books early in the morning?"
Klein nodded: "Correct, if this is the Uruk Dynasty, then the cedar forest will correspond to the 'cedar forest' on the unearthed clay tablets, and the terrible devil Humbaba occupies this place, and it will kill everyone who sets foot on it."
Creatures in its territory. However..."
He told the legend, but had self-doubt, which puzzled Victor.
"However?"
Klein turned back slightly: "However, this so-called 'Uruk Dynasty' is not what you guessed, and whether Humbaba exists or not..."
Suddenly, the huge luminous sphere hanging over the city of Akkad in the distance changed.
It was originally as cold and dim as the moon, but at this time it gradually appeared red and warm, and its color slowly changed from cold to golden, as if the dawn was coming and the golden light was about to shine on the earth.
It's almost dawn?
Victor looked up at the golden morning light that filtered through the canopy of trees, and quickly observed the flow of Qi wandering in the forest.
Klein's mood became calmer, knowing that the two of them had spent the most dangerous night.
However, as the tense of the light ball changed, some strange mist also emerged from the depths of the cedar forest.
Klein's heart, which had just calmed down, was tightened in an instant, and Victor also noticed the chaos of anger in the forest.
The celestial eye followed the chaotic air and found it was the source of the mist.
Something is coming?!
Victor instantly drew the water spell and the Yang Talisman on himself, and then also drew two more for Klein with his other hand.
Klein didn't know what effect it had, but he had seen Victor's ability to use invisibility, so he didn't say anything.
The two of them clung to the side of the bushes close to the hill. Under the cover of two talismans, they did not attract the attention of the sudden appearance.
The sound of horse hooves came from the hill next to Victor. Someone riding a "horse?" appeared out of the strange fog and stepped onto the hill.
The heavy snoring, the strange whispering "curse sound?", the unpleasant smell...
Victor held his breath and wondered, could it be that Humbaba's appearance was that of a huge horse?
Although he didn't see what was behind him, the faint sense of oppression made Victor convinced that the other person must be the legendary devil - Humbaba.
The distance between the two parties was less than ten meters, and Victor's desire to spy was violently aroused. He really wanted to confirm what the thing behind him looked like and whether it was as terrifying as the rumors.
So, he made a risky decision to open the door to escape from his body and observe the monster behind him carefully.
Klein next to him was motionless and unusually calm, like a corpse sweating constantly.
Victor quietly opened his own door, and then used the Turtle Breathing Technique,
As the dark spirit invisible to mortals emerged from Victor's body, his eyes were like those of a ghost, scanning the hills behind.
He couldn't see clearly, so he tried to let himself float higher up, and then he saw...
