Chapter 1435: Chapter 486: Ghost Potion, the Deceased S-Class Talent
Moreover, it must be above the Elite Level.
However, any creature at this level poses a tremendous challenge for them.
Therefore, they’ve been stuck at Level 50, unable to break through.
And now, Cao Xing has clearly left them far behind!
…
…
At this moment, Cao Xing had already returned to his room.
After acquiring the specific location of the district, he didn’t act immediately.
Instead, he summoned Sarah and instructed her to scout first.
After all, Tian Jing only mentioned he was locked in a basement, but didn’t know exactly where.
Moreover, the Tanake District is quite large, and searching bit by bit would consume a lot of time, potentially alerting that perverted noble.
If the grass is startled into alerting the snake and Tian Jing is moved elsewhere, it would be a big problem.
So what needs to be done now is to first ascertain Tian Jing’s location, then act swiftly.
Upon receiving her orders, Sarah quickly vanished on the spot.
As a Seventh Rank Dominator-level assassin, if she wanted to conceal herself, even heroic-level creatures might not be able to detect her presence.
Therefore, sending her on this mission is the most appropriate choice.
What followed was a silent wait.
Several hours passed, yet there was still no news from Sarah.
Cao Xing waited until past ten o’clock in the evening.
A shadow suddenly appeared in the room.
When the shadow revealed its form, a woman clad in thick leather armor, outlining a graceful figure, appeared.
It was Sarah!
At this moment, the Dark Elf slightly bowed, then saluted and said, “Lord, I didn’t find the Otherworldly Lord you mentioned.”
“However, in a corner of that district, I found a relatively special area.”
“That area is covered by some kind of shielding magic, and there is a large door blocking my entry.”
“In the entire district, only that place seems suspicious.”
Cao Xing’s eyes lit up instantly.
Clearly, based on Sarah’s clues,
this place is most likely where Tian Jing is being held.
“Very well, wait with me in the room for a moment, then take me there.”
“As you command!”
He didn’t act immediately.
Instead, he waited until it was past eleven at night, when the entire Eternal Frost Main City had quieted down.
Cao Xing then said, “Let’s go, Sarah, we’re setting off.”
With those words, a shadow was the first to open the room door.
Then, while no one noticed, two figures quietly left the tavern.
The pair, cloaked, walked through the streets.
The midnight of Eternal Frost Main City seemed very desolate, not a pedestrian in sight.
Of course, in such a cold world, few venture out during the day, let alone at night.
At this moment, Sarah walked gracefully and silently ahead like a leopard.
Cao Xing followed her all the way.
The two avoided all the patrols of the guardians.
Then, after several turns, they arrived at the outskirts of a district.
This street resembled the slums of Eternal Frost Main City.
The houses were very old, the ground filthy as if it hadn’t been cleaned in ages.
Walking along, a strange foul stench reached their noses.
Cao Xing even noticed many frozen bodies in the corners.
He thought to himself, “Indeed, no matter how glamorous a place is on the surface, there are always dark corners.”
“Even in Eternal Frost Main City, it’s the same.”
Without overthinking, he continued to follow Sarah forward.
Soon, they turned into a secluded alley.
At the end,
Sarah stopped beside a small house and said, “Lord, the area with shielding magic is right here.”
“There’s a small wooden door below, connecting to a basement.”
“Once inside, there’s another hidden door; I stopped at that hidden door before.”
Cao Xing glanced around and indeed spotted a small wooden door in the corner of a wall.
It looked like the window to a basement, just big enough for one person to squeeze through.
“Alright, let’s go down and take a look.”
With those words, Sarah pushed open the wooden door, revealing a narrow stairway passage.
The two proceeded down this passage.
“Tap… tap…”
Empty footsteps echoed in their ears.
As they descended, the light grew dimmer.
Soon, they reached the end, arriving in a narrow room.
This place seemed ordinary, piled with various debris.
In the air, a scent of dust and decay wafted.
Even if vagrants accidentally entered, they’d quickly leave, finding nothing of interest here.
At this point, Sarah approached a wall, then said,
“Lord, it’s here.”
“There’s a hidden door here, passing through should lead to a hidden area.”
Cao Xing scanned with his gaze.
[Hidden Door]
[Armor: 800]
[Durability Value: 50000/50000]
[Attached Effect: Explosion Rune (when the hidden door’s durability value drops to zero, it triggers a violent explosion.)]
…
A stone gate with only fifty thousand durability can be destroyed with just any magic.
But the troublesome part is the explosion rune behind it.
This is obviously a warning device left by some presence; once someone destroys the stone gate, it will trigger an explosion.
Then, upon sensing it, they would rush over at the fastest speed.
Sarah said, “Lord, do you need me to destroy the stone gate?”
Cao Xing pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, “No, I’ll go through first myself, then see the situation inside.”
Sarah was momentarily stunned, seemingly unsure of what Cao Xing meant.
