Chapter 651 - 648: Cyan Vault’s Last Words
For the Heavy Rain Team, whose primordial qi was greatly damaged, Bai Pu could only change their plan from the original "explore the ancient gods and demons ruins" to "investigate the information of the ancient ruins."
For the other two teams, Bai Pu also issued similar orders. The strength of the Sea Race experts was too strong, even stronger than the top masters of the Huaxia Battle Group.
Without Bai Pu’s presence, it was not advisable to fight forcefully.
However, after finishing the call with "Sword Saint" Heavy Rain, Rooster reported a new situation.
"Commander, Cyan Vault sent a message, it should be his last words. Previously, the switchboard was not set up, so this last words could not be received."
Of course, Bai Pu didn’t blame Rooster, for this was the Spirit Realm, not Earth, using Spirit Realm artifacts instead of personal information terminals, it naturally couldn’t achieve real-time communication.
"What’s the content of the last words?" Bai Pu asked.
Rooster connected a device like an old-fashioned phone receiver to the interface of the black antenna machine, also known as the communication switchboard.
She listened with her ear for a moment and then pressed the pause button, looking at Bai Pu with an unusual expression: "Commander, you’d better listen yourself."
Bai Pu squinted and took the receiver, placing it by his ear.
Amid the rustling noise, Cyan Vault’s weak voice came through.
"... repeat, this message is only for the battle group commander Steel Heart to listen to. If anyone else in the battle group eavesdrops without Steel Heart’s permission, it will be considered treason...
"Steel Heart, I am now being chased by Sea Race experts, can’t say much. Steel Heart... you took the Celestial Human Title from me, I don’t like you much. Even when I joined the Huaxia Battle Group, I was only here to watch the fun, stepping forward to replace at the critical moment.
"But now, facing death, I have come to terms. Perhaps only a monster like you can thwart the Sea Race’s conspiracy and let human civilization continue...
"I am dying, but your journey is still long. Do not show recklessness, lead the people to retreat...
"If you insist on staying, be sure to be careful, I suspect there is a mole..."
Then there was the sound of a piercing whistle, followed by Cyan Vault’s muffled groan, and the message abruptly stopped.
Bai Pu silently put down the receiver.
Looking at the concerned crowd, Bai Pu said calmly: "There’s actually nothing much, Cyan Vault senior... just informed me about some information regarding that Sea Race expert."
Since Cyan Vault was dead, everyone felt somewhat sad, and the atmosphere was slightly heavy.
The mages from the Lorich Orthodox Camp who were on the same journey, such as Sadogo, did not hear the internal conversation of the Awakened, but they felt the heavy atmosphere and looked at Bai Pu curiously.
"The Divine Lady and Blood Spider have returned." Bai Pu suddenly looked up.
Everyone looked up, seeing Wushan Divine Lady and Blood Spider bringing a stiff-bodied Dragon Person with them.
Apparently, this Dragon Person was affected by the acupoint stimulation technique of the Wushan Divine Lady.
"Oh, this martial skill is quite unique, is it by blocking the body’s energy circulation to render the target immobile? Wouldn’t this cause the target to die?"
Sadogo approached, casting an "Eye of Magic" spell on himself, murmuring, "I see, the energy nature is very gentle, it ensures the target’s basic life cycle, unlike those brutes from the Garrison..."
"Make way, Sadogo." Bai Pu hoisted the Dragon Person captive over, ready to begin interrogation.
"Are you sure you want me to go? I have learned Dragon Language." Sadogo pushed up his monocle, "Without my translation, can you freely communicate with this Dragon Person captive?"
"No need for Dragon Language." Bai Pu took out a translation device, which was drawn from the "Key of the Otherworld Traveler" after killing the Tiger Shark Sea Race leader Batali. "This thing can help translate. However, judging by the Dragon Person’s fierce look, communication is likely ineffective."
"Coincidentally, I have some research on taming unruly summoned creatures." Sadogo eagerly expressed his presence.
"No need, I’m in a hurry."
A drop of pure blood from Bai Pu fell on the forehead of the fierce Dragon Person. Due to severe injuries, the drop of pure blood seeped into the Dragon Person’s body almost bezst gegeven...
[Your talent ability: Pure Blood Protection is activated, Dragon People General Nakang becomes your slave.]
Sure enough, without a Demon God Mark hindering, the pure blood could play its role.
Bai Pu chose to retain the complete thinking ability of Dragon People General Nakang for inquiry, mainly asking about Laine’s whereabouts.
Bai Pu also put a translation device on the Dragon People General, so that Nakang’s Dragon Language could be translated into common language through the device, and everyone present could understand.
"Laine... that outsider was taken to the Dragon Ring Cliff by the Great Elder. The Great Elder also took three generals and three teams of brave soldiers with him, leaving me to guard the village against Crow People attacks from Cold Swan Peak."
"What kind of place is the Dragon Ring Cliff?" Bai Pu pursued.
"It is said that the first-generation ancestors of us Dragon People emerged from the Dragon Ring Cliff. There is a ring-shaped cliff there, reportedly depicting ancient Holy Dragon King reliefs. However, I have never seen it in person, it is a forbidden area."
"Is the Great Elder truly so kind, letting Laine go to receive the Holy Dragon King’s inheritance? Bringing so many soldiers to escort?" Bai Pu did not believe it, trusting more in his own observation and judgment.
"The Great Elder said that this person is an important tool to awaken the inheritance. Once the inheritance is obtained, he will be killed directly." Dragon People General Nakang answered honestly.
This made the mages of the Lorich Orthodox Camp anxious.
They had a relationship with Laine as classmates and friends, united under Laine’s charisma (main character aura).
Laine received guidance from the spirit of the deceased Great Sage Jiehui, the former head of Lorich Academy, and in the hearts of Lorich mages, he was the orthodox leader. At this moment, Laine was in danger, making them extremely worried both publicly and privately.
Sadogo wavered a hand: "Don’t worry, that guy Laine won’t die easily, we’ll plan things carefully, being cautious not to alert the Dragon People, and sneak into the Dragon Ring Cliff quietly... I say Dior, your spiritual control magic is quite impressive, your charm magic proficiency is high."
Dragon People General Nakang, now wholly aligning with Bai Pu’s interests, proactively reminded: "Before leaving, the Great Elder, to prevent any mishap, let Laine drink a bowl of Holy Water with aconite poison added. Once the Great Elder casts a spell, it will activate, and Laine will quickly lose combat power."
"Damn, then what are we waiting for, hurry up or we might as well prepare to collect Laine’s corpse." Sadogo jumped up.
"No need to panic. We haven’t delayed, calculating the time, Laine and the others have probably just arrived at the Dragon Ring Cliff. Awakening a millennia-slumbering Holy Dragon King’s inheritance isn’t something that can be completed quickly; before Laine loses his useful value, he is absolutely safe." Bai Pu said.
