Chapter 213: Chapter 213 Exchange of Intelligence_1
"Up already? I’ll take you to the station."
"No, we’re planning to investigate the siege on the Forest Temple."
"No way! That’s too dangerous!"
Glancing at Agunas, Feng Yuan said calmly,
"If having Agunas with you is dangerous, won’t you be in even more danger?"
"It’s not the same! This is our duty and responsibility! You’re different!"
"What if I refuse to go back? Can you spare the time to escort us back?"
Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Captain Yang squinted his eyes and asked Yang Hongzhi coldly, freewebnøvel.coɱ
"Do you think the same?"
Yang Hongzhi met Captain Yang’s gaze and said calmly,
"I don’t want to see a tragedy happen again, at least not while I have the power to prevent it."
"A tragedy, huh..."
Captain Yang sighed and turned to the woman who was organizing documents and said,
"Sixuan, copy a set of the secret-level documents that are below level A for them."
"Eh? Boss! That would be against the rules!"
"They were invited by me to assist in the investigation. According to the rules, they have the right to read any documents related to the case that are below level A."
"Sigh, you’re the boss; whatever you say goes."
The woman sighed and started printing the documents while Yang Hongzhi fell silent for a moment before he looked at Captain Yang and said,
"That’s not necessary."
"The rules say so; I haven’t broken any."
After a moment’s hesitation, Yang Hongzhi turned to Feng Yuan and said,
"You see..."
"It’s up to you. Anyway, I trust that they won’t ask us to join their operation."
Captain Yang narrowed his eyes at Feng Yuan and asked,
"What else are you hiding?"
"Consider it a trade of information. You may not be aware, but the so-called mystical lake beneath the Forest Temple does exist, and it indeed has the power to cause all Spirit Beasts and humans, no, to be correct, all life forms to transcend and evolve."
"That’s impossible! How could such a thing exist in this world!"
Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s words, the woman couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise. Captain Yang glanced at her then turned to Feng Yuan and said,
"That’s definitely not something good, is it!"
"The lake is called the Sea of Suffering. Maybe you’re not aware, but those ancient beings have likely heard of its notoriety."
"Ancient beings..."
As Captain Yang stared intently at Feng Yuan, seemingly trying to discern something, Feng Yuan waved his hand and looked at Agunas saying,
"Help shield the information."
Seeing Feng Yuan’s serious expression, Agunas nodded and threw the Ancient Book in his hand, creating a sky-blue Barrier that enveloped everyone. Captain Yang looked at Feng Yuan seriously and said,
"If it’s dangerous information, better not say it!"
Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said,
"It’s not that. It’s just that if others find out about it, there will be trouble until the Sea of Suffering is dealt with."
"The Sea of Suffering is a forbidden existence. I’m not sure how it came into being, but I do know its characteristics."
Glancing at Agunas, who was hastily writing, Feng Yuan paused and continued,
"The Sea of Suffering will Devour all life forms that come near it..."
"Wait! Isn’t it a lake? Why call it the Sea of Suffering?"
The woman couldn’t help interrupting. Captain Yang shot her a look but said nothing more. Feng Yuan sighed and said,
"That’s related to its characteristics. The Sea of Suffering devours all life forms and assimilates them as part of itself, which is why it’s said to have the power to cause all life to transcend and evolve..."
Looking at the cold smile that appeared on Feng Yuan’s face, the woman felt a chill down her spine. Captain Yang seemed to understand something— he had guessed that this thing must have some terrifying side effects. Placing Xiao Ji, who had jumped into his arms, on his head, Feng Yuan continued,
"The Sea of Suffering can devour all living beings without any restrictions, so it is called a sea. After all, back then, it completely covered the entire Luo’an City and the surrounding areas,"
"So that’s why you said that if we’re not careful, Luo’an City could be finished, right..."
"If that were all, it wouldn’t be worth your extreme caution. There must be another reason, right?"
Seeing Captain Yang staring at him, Feng Yuan nodded and said,
"Indeed, the truly nauseating aspect of the Sea of Suffering is that it is immune to all forces except for Divine Beasts of the Death Series, and not even time and space can destroy it, only suppress it."
"What!"
At this moment, Captain Yang could no longer contain the shock in his heart, and he exclaimed in surprise. Feng Yuan sighed helplessly and said,
"That’s how it is. The ability to devour living beings combined with immunity to other forces makes it an existence that’s virtually impossible to deal with."
After his initial surprise, Captain Yang thought about what Feng Yuan had said and, looking at him suspiciously, said,
"If that’s the case, how did the Sea of Suffering that once covered the entire Luo’an City shrink to its current state?"
"Back then, Lorraine Tower launched a large-scale time collapse on the Sea of Suffering, forcibly reverting it to its nascent state, and then sealed it underneath the Forest Temple."
"Time collapse?"
"A devastating Time Series ultimate move that forcibly eradicates a period of time, causing an unavoidable temporal correction. However, Lorraine Tower’s limit was only to revert the adversary back to its nascent state."
"Damn it! That means we absolutely can’t let those people continue to mess around like this!"
After listening to Feng Yuan’s explanation, Captain Yang could not help but curse out loud. Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said,
"That’s why I want to investigate. I don’t believe ordinary people would know about the Sea of Suffering. Even among the current Alliance’s upper echelons, few know about it, let alone in places like this."
"But isn’t the Sea of Suffering right here?"
Yang Hongzhi looked at Feng Yuan somewhat puzzled. With a strange smile, Feng Yuan said quietly,
"The humans in this region had all become part of the Sea of Suffering back then; it’s impossible for anyone to know about it."
"How is that possible..."
"Moreover, its approach is also very strange... Forget it, let’s start with the outskirts first and hope there’s no problem on its end..."
Feng Yuan murmured to himself, then looked at Captain Yang and said,
"I’ve told you everything I can. Let’s go investigate the mastermind behind the scenes~"
Watching the two depart, a woman looked at Captain Yang with confusion and said,
"Chief, aren’t you going to stop them? With the situation as it is, they could very well encounter danger if they start the investigation."
With a sigh, Captain Yang replied helplessly,
"If we had a way to solve this, I would stop him... but..."
Saying this, Captain Yang punched the table in frustration and said,
"Am I still too weak...?"
Bai Mao came over and gently patted Captain Yang’s back as if to comfort him. The woman sighed and said to Captain Yang,
"Do you trust him that much? Is the Sea of Suffering really as terrifying as he says? And that only ancient beings would know of it, could he possibly be an ancient being himself?"
"I believe him because those Divine Beasts protect him, shelter him. Even if he isn’t an ancient being, he must be an existence of special importance,"
"Eh? Is he the one personally declared under the protection of Lorraine Tower?"
Glancing at the woman, Captain Yang nodded and said,
"I’ll report this to the superiors. You inform the others to come back immediately!"
Realizing the gravity of the situation, the woman didn’t dare delay and quickly took out a communicator to inform the team members outside to return at once.
"Although we are just investigating the situation, where should we start?"
Leaving the residential building, Feng Yuan scratched his head, appearing somewhat helpless, and Yang Hongzhi, after pondering for a while, said,
"Perhaps we don’t need to investigate. Since that thing is so terrifying, I believe the guards will definitely take action to suppress it."
"They won’t, because they haven’t found the mastermind behind the scenes. What if they suppress the adversary and end up releasing that thing?"
"Speaking of which, doesn’t that thing have flaws? Why does it seem so thorny?"
Seeing Yang Hongzhi’s perplexed look, Feng Yuan smiled and said,
"For some reasons, up to now, there are actually no Divine Beasts in the Death Series, so you understand now, right?"
