Chapter 1641 - Chapter 1641 Chapter 498 Dragon Egg_2

Chapter 1641: Chapter 498 Dragon Egg_2 Chapter 1641: Chapter 498 Dragon Egg_2 Speaking, he gulped down a mouthful of meat soup and continued, “I also saw them organizing transport teams, pulling ropes, as if there were many things being hauled up…”

“Mhm.”

Sophia Jones listened and nodded slightly, her eyes showing contemplation.

Others didn’t take it too seriously, these days had been passing like this.

But listening, Leonard Churchill instinctively thought of a lot.

What was the purpose of the Holy Church developing the Death Domain at all costs?

Was it just to stop the Golden Dragon God Marlodis from returning from the Underworld?

But the Death Domain has always been here, so why had the Holy Church not sent people to develop it for tens of thousands of years?

The intelligence previously received only went down to the thirteenth layer.

Leonard Churchill asked, “Uncle East, what is the situation below the thirteenth layer?”

Dan Dong said, “Below the tenth layer, the Hell air is already very rich, and there’s a large number of Holy Church experts and powerful creatures. I didn’t find a suitable spot to go down further. However, as far as I observed, the fourteenth layer is a forest, the fifteenth layer has many traces of battle, and the sixteenth layer seems to be ancient relics, I’ve seen some man-made carved stone pillars…”

“…”

Leonard Churchill listened intently, a three-dimensional map already forming in his mind.

This Death Domain is like a huge cylindrical space, layered.

…

These days, since there were no particularly good opportunities and they had to wait for Leonard Churchill to advance, everyone didn’t take these news too seriously.

But now that Leonard Churchill has successfully advanced, many things could be planned.

“Uncle East, have you found the location of the [Nether Peacock]?”

“No. However, there are many Demon Beasts active near the roots of the World Tree, a lot of Demon Beasts are climbing up from the depths along the roots. There have been clashes between the mercenaries of the Holy Church and these Demon Beasts, and the losses in the past few days have been heavy… I’ve seen at least five Seventh-Order Magical Beasts, one Eighth Rank. And they all are unrecognized. Oh, I’ve sketched them, Brother Leonard Churchill, take a look, do you know what they are…”

“These are legendary Hellish Breed creatures, [Ghost-faced Spider], [Netherworld Dragon Eagle], [Two-tailed Hell Scorpion], [Three-Eyed Vengeful Ghost Monkey], and [Thorny Winged Snake]… Are all of these Demon Beasts’ sizes very large?”

“Yes, they are extremely huge! Each one is many times larger than the normal Demon Beasts.”

“…”

Leonard Churchill looked at the Demon Beasts sketched by Uncle East and roughly guessed the origin of these creatures.

Obviously, the monsters in the depths of this Abyss have nearly all undergone ‘gigantism’ oriented mutations.

Sophia Jones looked at Leonard Churchill, who was deep in thought, and asked softly, “Something on your mind?”

Leonard Churchill said frankly, “Mutation in creatures has been confirmed to be influenced by the environment, and it’s highly probable that this is related to the [Titan] Divine Race. So I’m thinking, what was Emperor Lanlingster looking for when He descended? And why did He return grievously wounded?”

Sophia Jones pondered for a moment and said, “Are you suggesting there might be some terrifying existence deep in the Death Domain?”

“Mhm.”

Leonard Churchill said, “If there is indeed some hidden danger, Dragon God Airel had tens of thousands of years to deal with it. But He hasn’t come, instead, the danger has persisted until now. This means, either He thought it unnecessary, or… He dares not come.”

Upon saying this, the large cave fell into silence.

A chilling sensation crept up everyone’s spine.

If it’s the former, it’s manageable; but if it’s the latter… it feels like they are bringing themselves to their doom?

A danger zone even Dragon Gods are wary to tread, yet they dare to venture here?

Yet upon this thought, precisely because the Dragon God dares not come, many Cannon Fodder have been sent to explore; it sounds reasonable.

However, before they could dwell on their extreme fears, Leonard Churchill saw that they had been led astray by their thoughts and smiled, “Even if there is some terrifying existence, it won’t be that bad. Hmm… it’s like… when people see ants on the roadside, they don’t necessarily think of stepping on them.”

“…”

After this remark, everyone glanced at him and their eyes twitched in sync.

They felt there was something wrong with that analogy… but it inexplicably eased the tension.

At this time, a slight smile appeared at the corners of Leonard Churchill’s mouth as he said, “The intelligence is too scant, I can’t ascertain much more.”

Saying this, he looked at Sophia Jones, “But if possible, I intend to go down and see the situation.”

Bonnie instantly lit up at the mention, “Go down?”

The others felt the same.

Risk was certain, but none here were averse to taking risks.

Thinking that the people of the Holy Church have gone, of course, they will go too.

Previously, they prioritized safety because Leonard Churchill was advancing; now that he has advanced, with another top combat power added to the team, they are even more ready to go.

Sophia Jones glanced at everyone, all tacit partners, and instantly knew what everyone was thinking.

Turning to Leonard Churchill, she asked, “When do we go?”

Leonard Churchill said, “Now.”

Saying this, he thought back to a detail in the previous conversation that everyone didn’t pay much attention to, “The people of the Holy Church are building rope ladders, this is to move big items. I want to see what those things really are…”

It wasn’t just curiosity about the items, but also, through the products transported, he could get more accurate intelligence.

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes sparkled anew.

As the perpetual opportunists of the Revolutionary Army, experience told them, there must be good things among those big items.

Bonnie thought for a moment, hesitated and said, “But Leonard Churchill, could those ‘big items’ be bait? Like last time at the camp…”

Leonard Churchill replied, “It’s possible, but unlikely. Now whether it’s the Sun Sect or the Crimson Sect, their focus is on the relics on the sixteenth layer. Even if those ‘big items’ are of certain value, splitting forces to rob openly isn’t worth it. Plus, by stealing and exposing themselves, they would suffer more loss than gain…”
