Chapter 511 - Plans (1/2)

**Ryfon is the Elven Prince Hao Xuan met after coming to the Academy, who's niece he's here to find.**

”A few strange developments?” Hao Xuan looked over, intrigued. His hands still didn't stop moving, flipping, mixing and working on the various dishes.

Ryfon nodded blankly while staring at the campfire.

”The parties we sent down there have gone missing. We lost contact with them just a few hours ago. The last thing they reported was seeing a treasure room of some kind, at least that's what the sensors reported. There was extremely thick spiritual energy and remnant auras all around the place.”

At this point, he paused and looked towards Hao Xuan, ”Apparently there wasn't any sign of that organic material that's covering the rest of the structure, so we can say that place at least is still safe. Do you...know anything about it?”

Hao Xuan covered a pan with the lid before nodding without any hesitation, ”Yeaup. The structure is a Prison belonging to the Temple of War. Apparently it was a top-secret project and there was only one prisoner, the same organic material that's spreading all over the place. They couldn't kill it by any means so containment was the only option....”

Ryfon wasn't expecting a response, especially one like this that basically explained the entire history of the structure and this planet. He was shocked into silence for a couple of minutes before he spoke up again.

”Why...are you telling me all this? Why not keep it to yourself or just sell the information? It is definitely worth a fortune.”

”Haha,” Hao Xuan laughed lightly, ”What is a fortune in this place? Will it help me get what I need? Will your master let me off the hook? I doubt it, I'd probably get killed. And you guys need to know this. I tried explaining to that blood prince cunt but he didn't listen.”

Hao Xuan raised his head and met Ryfon's stunned gaze.

”You think too much man, not everyone has an ulterior motive. But even if you tell the higherups about its actual history, are you sure they will contact the Temple of War and stop exploring? I highly doubt it.”

Ryfon looked away with a numb gaze, ”You're right. They will think of it as an opportunity and increase their efforts a hundredfold while hiding its existence.”

”What do you plan to do then?” Hao Xuan asked while taking the three large pieces of meat off the flame.
