Chapter 1470 – Mercenary Guild
Rean was right about the experts of the Sacred Undersea Kingdom coming to check the Under Desert Sea. Through the use of Thoughts Transmission Talismans, the kingdom was warned about what was happening, and it didn’t take more than a day for a few representatives to appear there.
“Well, this is weird. The Flash Beast inside Treavin shouldn’t have come out for at least ten thousand years. How come it’s already born? All our plans have been disrupted because of that,” said one of the experts of the kingdom. He was a Pristine Jade Dolphin called Gigi.
“Could it be that the guys from Treavin found out our plans?” Another one of the experts, someone called Utrin, asked. He was part of the Pearl Whale Race, a race of white whales with a special ability that allowed them to harden their bodies.
“That would be ridiculous.” Someone else immediately answered. Because this beast was in human form, it wasn’t easy to tell which aquatic demon beast he was. As for his name, he was addressed as Ivint. “Liberate the Flash Beast just so we can’t invade their continent? They would need to be idiots to do that. That Flash Beast alone will wipe out a huge part of the lives in Treavin. Even without the Under Desert Sea, it’ll be an easy task to take Treavin Continent over after it.”
Gigi shook his head, saying, “That’s the point. We won’t be the only ones to know that the Flash Beast came out. All the other continents around Treavin will find out about it as well. The Flash Beast will take quite some time to overcharge itself and die off in a huge explosion. By then, Treavin will be open for anyone who wants to take it. Perhaps the powers in Treavin decided that it was better to have many powers fighting over it and have no winner in the end.”
Utrin then moved in the direction of the continental barrier. “Help me open a hole in the continental barrier. If the three of us combine our powers, we should be able to open a passage for a short duration. I’ll head to Treavin to keep an eye on the Flash Beast.”
Gigi and Ivint were taken aback. “The Flash Beast will go after the highest concentration of Divine Energy, you know? What if it decides to go after you?”
Utrin didn’t seem concerned, telling them, “Don’t worry. I have my own ways of escaping. Besides, I won’t get too close. I just want to confirm if other continents will jump into the opportunity or not. Tell the Undersea God that I’ll contact him if I find anything.”
Ivint and Gigi nodded after that. “Very well.”
Each one of these aquatic demon beasts was at least as strong as Sally, the Armored Salamander. When the three gathered their Divine Energy, Elements, and spatial powers together, they were able to open a passage for Utrin to go through. However, all three looked quite tired after the attempt, showing just how hard it was to do such a thing. On top of that, the passage wouldn’t last very long.
Utrin quickly changed into his human form since his Pearl Whale form was too big for that hole. Nevertheless, he could use his hardening ability, which he did straight away before launching himself into the continental barrier. The passage that the three opened wasn’t a real thing. Their power was only enough to create a ‘safer’ path for Utrin to go through. That’s what that hole was about. Besides, anyone below their cultivation level wouldn’t be able to use that passage at all. The continental barrier truly couldn’t be underestimated.
Eventually, Utrin disappeared, leaving only Gigi and Ivint behind. ” Phew… this is really tiring. Anyways, what do we do now? Should we head back to the Sacred Undersea Kingdom and tell the Undersea God about it?”
Ivint nodded, telling Gigi, “That’s our best option. Now that the Flash Beast is out, we’ll need to hasten our invasion plan. At the very least, we were already preparing for it before the Flash Beast came out. With that said, once the Flash Beast disappears, we will be the first ones to enter.”
Gigi agreed with Ivint before the two used their spatial powers to teleport away.
Meanwhile, Roan headed to the mercenary guild. That was the best place to gather the information he wanted. As for Luan, Roan was still carrying him.
On the counter, Roan asked for the information he needed, much to the worker’s surprise. “A map of the undersea cities with teleport formations?” Sure enough, anyone wishing to use teleport formations would be looked at with skepticism. “I’m sorry, friend. Because there’s no such thing as teleport formations, maps of that type are very rare. At most, I can get one that shows the only undersea city in our Foczi Sea. However, you won’t be able to use the teleport formation there.”
Roan understood why the map Sharky gave him wasn’t that big. It’s not that Sharky didn’t want to give him a better map, but because he probably didn’t have one. In any case, the Mercenary Guild at least knew of this one city with teleport formations. “That’s enough for me. How much is the map?”
The worker shook his head, telling Roan, “For someone at your level, it’s free. You would find it hard to get this map elsewhere anyway. By the way, are you part of the Mercenary Guild? I would recommend joining it as this job will open quite a few doors to you.” Sure enough, the worker also noticed Roan wasn’t someone from Utari City.
“Many doors?” Roan pondered a bit. “Would it help me take the teleport formation in the undersea city closest to here?”
“This…” The worker got troubled. “That would be very hard.”
Roan, of course, noticed the worker’s words. “Very hard? So it’s not impossible, huh? Seems like the Mercenary Guild has some influence even in the undersea cities.. Very well. What do I need to do to join?”
