Chapter 141: Set off again (Tomorrow night it's the old cat's turn to work overtime again...)
In the secret room of the palace, King Jehain was talking to a mysterious voice.
Faced with the question from this voice, Jie Hain had no choice but to remain silent.
The Horadric Cube is in Xue Hua's hands, and Xue Hua may also know the location of another staff component.
And he refused to cooperate with himself.
In this case, even if he insists on opening the seal, he will not be able to gain any benefits in the end. Instead, he will be stigmatized as a foolish king. Of course, he is not willing to do this kind of thing.
Seeing that Jie Hein was silent, the owner of that voice seemed to understand his plan, and then he snorted coldly and said.
"You are too weak, my 'King', you have disappointed me so much!
I've helped you gain the upper hand, and you've actually turned such a good set of cards into such a virtuous person!
How can I continue to trust you?!"
When Jehein heard the other party's words, he couldn't help but show a trace of anger on his face, but he quickly covered up the anger and spoke in a cold voice.
"I still have the King's Staff in my hand. Even if they find other staff components in the end, they must get the King's Staff in my hand to open Tarasha's tomb. I can use this as a condition to ask them
We agreed that we would send manpower to enter the ancient tomb with them...and I heard that not only is it very dangerous inside the ancient tomb, but once people enter, they will lose contact with the outside world..."
"...Very good. It seems that you still have follow-up plans. So this time, don't let me down again. Do you understand?"
"I understand..." Jehain said with lowered eyelids.
"Very good." The cold voice replied with satisfaction, and then disappeared into the secret room.
After the sound disappeared, there was another suffocating silence in the secret room.
After a long time, a long sigh sounded in the secret room.
...
Xue Hua didn't know what happened in the palace. He was busy comforting the two little girls in front of him with tears in their eyes.
After arranging the affairs of the insect swarm, Xue Hua took advantage of the night to arrive at the headquarters of the Lu Gaoyin Mages Association, and asked Farah and Drognan for ten flawless gems.
What he expected was that when the two old mages learned that he wanted these gems to get the serpentine ornaments, they readily gave him thirty gems and then asked him if they were enough.
If it's not enough, they can find someone to replace it.
This made Xue Hua sigh. The legendary powerhouses are indeed a bunch of rich people. Taking out thirty flawless gems is as easy as taking a month's pocket money.
After getting the gem, Xue Hua began to prepare to set off again, but this time, he was not prepared to take the Rogge sisters with him.
The main reason why he made this decision was because the place he wanted to explore this time was a truly unknown land. Even he could not predict what kind of dangers there were, and the strength of the two girls was still too low.
Hua really didn't want to take them to take such a risk.
On the one hand, he also needs to leave two trustworthy people in Lugaoin to help him receive the things that the insect mother Krisha transports from the sewer.
Ever since Xue Hua accepted Isa's suggestion and asked Krisa to use the poisonous bugs to "burrow" into the sealed sewers, he lost contact with this Zerg army.
And with the current combat power of the insect swarm, as long as the monsters in the sewer are still projections, Krisha's advancement will be very fast.
This means that they may achieve their mission goals at any time and emerge from the sewer.
In this case, Xue Hua needs a few trustworthy people to help him recover the things Krisha brought out from the sewer.
There are not many people Xue Hua can trust in Lu Gaoyin. Kane's goal is too big, and it will be easy for him to receive those things.
The same goes for Warev. As one of the few friends of Xue Hua in Lu Gaoyin, his every move must have been watched by the royal family and other forces.
Then the only people left are the two little girls who have been by his side all year round but have never attracted much attention.
Although they are his mercenaries, they have always been very low-key and inconspicuous, which makes them very suitable for this task.
In addition, they usually go to the streets to buy items or help him gather information. Although some secret spies have followed them several times, they have not gained anything in the end.
So many people thought that these two girls were just Xue Hua's concubines, and naturally they gradually stopped paying much attention to them.
And what Xue Hua wants now is this kind of effect. Only in this way can the two sisters move everything that Krisha took out to a safe place without anyone noticing.
But when he told the two girls his plan, their eyes were filled with tears almost instantly.
They thought that this was the prelude that Xue Hua finally thought they were a drag and was ready to abandon them...
Fortunately, the two sisters understood the basics after all. After Xue Hua explained the importance of their mission to them, they finally agreed to Xue Hua's request and were willing to stay in Lu Gaoyin City to assist him.
So, after some simple preparations, Xue Hua left the residence through the back door in the early morning of the next day, and disappeared into the morning mist with the reluctant eyes of the two girls.
Before he left, he also temporarily assigned another "side task" that was not particularly important to the two girls, which was to ask them to go to the library of the Lu Gaoyin Master Association to help look up information about "summoning".
"The matter of Horazon."
Although in this world, this originally very powerful mage has very little influence on the course of history, as a mage who has at least reached a high level, he should still have some records to check.
Xue Hua hopes to use these records to see what kind of guy this "summoner" is.
...
Xue Hua's exit from the city went very smoothly this time. The reason was that he was inspired by the rats under Lu Gaoyin and chose to dig out the city directly by digging tunnels.
The reason why he did not choose to dig a tunnel directly inside the house was because he did not want to inadvertently destroy the protective spell that the mage would cast on the house - this kind of spell usually leaves spell nodes underground to prevent underground intrusions.
.
He chose the location of the tunnel under the city wall at the edge of the upper city, and used the cover of a big tree to directly punch a hole in the foundation of the city wall. Worker bees then reinforced the foundation to prevent the wall from collapsing and causing a catastrophe.
As for the exit location, Xue Hua directly chose Krisha's secret temporary lair outside the city. He also left an order for Krisha here to transport everything brought out of the sewer directly through this passage.
Entering the uptown area, the two girls will be waiting for them near the roots of the big tree.
After doing this, he went to the seaside, summoned a king insect, got directly into its belly bag, and using the cover of sea fog, rose into the sky and started heading towards the oasis.
Abathur has already researched how to enter the oasis protected by illusion.
It turned out that because one of the four stone pillars was destroyed, a loophole appeared in the illusion formation. This loophole happened to be located high in the air at the edge of the jungle in the real oasis. Only by entering from there can one enter the hidden oasis.
