Chapter 1554 - 1554 Exploration
1554 Exploration
Fang Heng’s eyes lit up.
“Oh?”
“Nuo La and the others are Gluttony’s servants, but they were too late when they were looking for Gluttony. Gluttony was found and sealed by the Revolution Society in advance.”
“All these years, we’ve been trying to find Gluttony. We’ve found some clues, and we’ve determined that the Revolution Society has locked Gluttony up in the Snow Mountain Manor area. We’ve also confirmed that the person who has been living and guarding the manor is Sheng Tao.”
Hearing this, Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan’s hearts skipped a beat. They couldn’t help but look at each other.
What a coincidence.
Sheng Tao had just been sealed by him.
“Yes, just as you thought, after Sheng Tao disappeared, the Revolution Society made a big move. They probably realized that Sheng Tao was in danger, so they mobilized their people to the slums.”
“Nuo La has received this news and believes that this is a rare opportunity. He wants to enter the Snow Mountain Manor to find Gluttony.”
Luo Xu’s brows were furrowed with anxiety. He said, “Demons are an extremely chaotic race. The Revolution Society has always conducted deep transactions with demons. Even if Sheng Tao is not in the Snow Mountain Manor, there must be someone else guarding it.”
The game hint refreshed on Fang Heng’s retina.
[Hint: The player has triggered a main storyline related mission-Gluttony who is imprisoned.]
Mission title: You have learned that Gluttony, one of the demonic seeds, is currently imprisoned in the Snow Mountain Manor by the Revolution Society. Gluttony’s servants are trying to rescue him.]
Mission requirements: Please make your decision. Do you wish to enter the Snow Mountain Manor to search?
Current mission completion rate: 0%.
Mission reward: Reputation with the Fallen Ones faction, follow-up mission.
Description: This is an open mission. Player can choose a variety of ways to complete the mission. Your choice will have a great impact on the subsequent missions.
Fang Heng glanced at the game hint.
The mission hint was not obvious.
However, finding Gluttony seemed to be a good opportunity.
Previously, he was beaten up by the people of the Revolution Society in the slums and almost died there. Now, he wanted to steal Sheng Tao’s house while he was sealed.
Perhaps it was a chance for revenge?
Fang Heng was a little moved. He raised his head and asked, “Where is the Snow Mountain Manor?”
“It’s not far from here by high-speed train. It’s about an hour’s drive.”
Fang Heng thought about it and hesitated.
He seemed to have promised Ruan Ziying not to run around.
Moreover, Luo Xu was right. There was indeed danger over there.
But…
That was Sheng Tao’s lair, and Gluttony was also imprisoned.
Other than the mission, he might be able to find something valuable.
Something that could even be used against Sheng Tao?
Following the mission, he might be able to get more guidance.
Fang Heng pondered for a moment and said, “I’ll go with you.”
“Fang Heng, this is very dangerous.”
It was not easy to find the demonic seed, so Luo Xu was extremely unwilling for Fang Heng to take the risk.
“There’s no need to persuade me. I’ve already made up my mind. I’m just going over to take a look first. I’ll decide whether to enter the manor area to investigate first.”
Luo Xu frowned.
Thinking of the powerful strength Fang Heng had displayed in the slums, he nodded and said, “Alright, please be careful.”
…
Snow Mountain Manor.
A few years ago, this was once one of the famous scenic spots in the Brickruder District. Due to a special extreme weather event that caused tourists to be trapped and die in the mountain manor, the entire mountain manor scenic area was forced to close down for reorganization.
Later, it was said that the manor was bought by a private tycoon.
Luo Xu drove Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan along the path to the manor area built on the mountainside.
At this moment, the sky was completely dark.
“Based on the information we’ve gathered over the past few years, we’ve confirmed that the Snow Mountain Manor is one of the new strongholds of the Revolution Society. We also have reliable information that we believe that Gluttony is hidden in the manor by the Revolution Society.”
Luo Xu looked down at his phone and said, “About twenty minutes ago, Nuo La launched an operation against the manor. Nuo La just sent me a message. They have already invaded the manor and are searching for traces of the Lord of the demonic seed.”
Fang Heng looked through the window at the manor area not far away.
Through the night vision ability of the vampires, he could see the Fallen Ones patrolling the manor area.
There were at least hundreds of them.
Soon, the car slowed down and drove steadily into the entrance of the manor.
Luo Xu looked at Fang Heng, who was sitting in the back seat, through the rearview mirror and said seriously, “Fang Heng, the manor is very dangerous. For safety reasons, I suggest you stay outside. We will search the manor thoroughly for the demonic seed.”
Before Fang Heng could answer, two young men in gray walked toward the car and blocked its path.
“Stop!”
Luo Xu and Nuo La were the leaders of the Fallen Ones faction from two neighboring countries. They had worked together a lot in the past, and most of Nuo La’s subordinates recognized Luo Xu.
Seeing Luo Xu in the car seat, the two Fallen Ones nodded at him.
“Mr. Luo, you’re here. Leader Nuo La brought us into the manor. Sheng Tao is not in the manor, and the resistance we encountered wasn’t strong. Now, we have completely occupied the entire Snow Mountain Manor.”
“The search is currently in progress. We haven’t found any traces of the Lord of the demonic seed for the time being.”
“In addition, we have already removed the alarm device of the Revolution Society. They should not know that we have successfully invaded.”
One of Nuo La’s subordinates pointed at the central manor in the middle of the manor.
“Just now, we found something in the central manor. Master Nuo Lai s investigating inside. He told us to wait for you here.”
Luo Xu, Fang Heng, and the others got out of the car together and asked, “How are the casualties? Did you encounter any evil spirits or demons?”
“When we attacked the manor, we encountered some resistance and some casualties. We quickly dealt with them and didn’t encounter any evil ghosts or demons.”
Luo Xu’s heart sank.
The manor’s defenses were so weak and it was wiped out by Nuo La and his men in less than 20 minutes.
This didn’t seem like the style of the Revolution Society.
“It seems that the demonic seed has been evacuated in advance.”
Luo Xu felt that this was the only possibility.
The Revolution Society did not guard this place because it was not important!
“Let’s go and take a look.”
“I’ll go with you.”
Since he was already here, Fang Heng naturally decided to go along and see if he could find any clues related to the Revolution Society.
The entire manor was filled with Fallen Ones patrolling in groups of twos and threes.
Soon, the group entered the largest central manor in the manor.
Fang Heng entered the central manor and frowned.
The Fallen Ones were digging something in the hall.
“Mr. Luo, we just found an entrance to the underground palace when we were searching carefully.”
