Chapter 579 Going In Search Of The Wife



After hearing Lothur's proposal, some of those beasts were moved by his words, wondering if his plans would work out.

No one there was sure whether the leaf they worshipped would continue to function the way it did if Lothur absorbed what was inside them. But they could not deny that they preferred not to fight the human before them.

Lothur, having reached this place, was already proof of his great strength and abilities. But they had seen their leader hitting this human with much of its strength and this silver-haired young man coping without further commotion.

In this case, a fight between them would not be at all simple, and many were at risk of death if they faced him.

But not only these level 17 beings were thinking about this. The level 18 toad itself was cautiously thinking about Lothur's proposal.

It was not afraid of this human. In fact, it was confident of winning, even if the enemy had some chance of survival and many of its people were to die in combat.

But getting an item similar to what they had pleased it greatly.

Unlike the weaker ones in this place, it knew those leaves were precious even with nothing inside and would be even more helpful to it than something with stored powers. That was because, while it could not access what Lothur said he could, it could put things inside such leaves.

Utilizing this, it could leave this place once the opening time of the Secret Realm was over and collect some specters that bothered it.

After that, if this item worked without what Lothur wanted to absorb, then it could use such a thing to reinforce the seal on this Secret Realm.

Thinking about these things, this beast could not deny that there were advantages for it if it followed Lothur's plan.

Obviously, there was a risk that either Lothur was lying about only wanting what was stored in it or that the item would not work the same way after absorbing such a thing. So it needed something more to accept this offer that was not bad at all.

The level 18 toad said. "Very well, I have a counteroffer for you, human.

Prove that without what you want, it works as we wish, and I will give you access to this one.

The Secret Realm will still be open for 72 hours, so you have that time to use your wife's item and prove that fact."

"How am I going to prove that? I don't even know where my wife is... Is there any way you can help me find her? Unlike some of you, I can't fly." He asked, feeling strange about following this plan.

If he was going to fight there, he was sure he would either die or win in a day or so. So he had less than 48 hours to accomplish what this beast proposed or return to this place to fight and get what he wanted the hard way.

Going along with this proposal had its risks, but given the slim chance of the victory he thought he had, Lothur decided to go along with it.

The beast said. "Since there is a possibility that we can benefit from this move, I will send one of my subordinates to accompany you.

I don't know who your wife is, but I can sense much of the Secret Realm, and I know that most of the humans still alive are in the 16th most powerful 'slice' of this space.

Currently, we are in the 20th 'slice,' so you only have to travel for 3 hours until you reach that location. From there on, it will be up to you to find your wife."

Lothur listened to that information and associated it with what little he knew, feeling that it shouldn't be too difficult for him to reach Viktoria after that.

The Secret Kingdom should be less than 100 square kilometers in area. So if there were 20 spaces, each should be around 5 square kilometers, not too much for him to investigate.

His visual ability had significantly improved after his stage advancement, so Lothur judged that he had a good chance of identifying where his wife was after a brief investigation.

"All right, who will come with me?" He decided to leave immediately, looking at that group of level 17 beings.

The giant red toad pointed to a winged insect and ordered. "Accompany this human to the 16th slice and help him find who he is looking for." It said, using a language Lothur did not understand. "Try to test her item on the 18th 'slice.' If it fails, run away immediately and send a warning.

I will close this place down to ensure he never gets what he wants!"

"I'll do my best, boss!" That creature replied, before following close to Lothur, indicating that it would lead him to such a place.

Lothur soon climbed onto the back of that brown creature, soon after holding on to its exoskeleton as it flew away at great speed.

Lothur was faster than this creature but couldn't fly and had to travel in not-so-interesting ways. At the same time, he didn't know the Secret Realm, and one way or another, he would be limited by the speed of his guide.

As such, he accepted this creature's ride without caring about the difference in speed between the two.

That insect was following the orders of its leader and didn't bother to have Lothur on its back, quickly making its way out of this underground area.

In the blink of an eye, it passed through the labyrinth levels where Lothur had passed earlier, those now devastated places.

Not all the beasts on the way had died, as Lothur had not followed endless paths through the levels of the labyrinth he had passed. At the same time, even some beings on the path he made were still alive since this young man had not been concerned with ensuring the death of all his opponents.

He wanted to reach the end of the labyrinth as quickly as possible to get the leaf that the system had identified. Therefore, when he did not use his bloodline skill, several very injured beings were left alive behind.

This insect saw this and caught the attention of these creatures, who soon began looking at them strangely.

'It can't be...'

'Don't tell me that this human beat even the boss?'

Some of them, not so injured as to not understand the situation in their surroundings, wondered, feeling that this was very shocking.

That insect and Lothur ignored those beings in the surroundings and soon left that underground area.

Having done so, the insect flew with everything it had toward the place its leader had indicated!
