Chapter 166 President Nicole 2 (2/2)

Esther could only sigh at Nicole's comment.

”What about your junior?” Nicole suddenly said, ”The one that you met. John Connor was his name...I suppose. One of the few Junior Protectors that survived the attack on Earth.”

”He's doing some errands to me.” Esther spoke with a faint smile as she remembered of the young man.

”Errands?” Nicole's eyebrow lifted, ”Do mean...collecting the Ancient Artefacts that you told me?”

”Yes, as far as I know, he had located the Floran Artefact and was in the process of getting it.”

”That was fast.” Nicole was surprised, ”I'm spending a lot of resources and people to help you find those things, but we simply found nothing. We only have a single clue about the Hylotl Artefact. From the texts we found, the Artefact is located in a place called Grand Pagoda Library.”

”That's good. At least we have located three of them.”

”Three?”

”Yes, I found out the where the Avian Artifact is. From a few book and information I gathered when speaking with some Avians, I discovered that the Artifact is at the Great Sovereign Temple.”

”Well then, why didn't you said it earlier? Let's send some people to get it for us-”

”Not possible.” Esther face showed a crestfallen Express, ”The Great Sovereign Temple is a very important religious temple for the Avian believers. On top of all this, the temple is located in Avos, the capital of the Holy Kluex Theocracy. If we try to barge our way in, if could lead to war. Something I'm pretty sure you want avoid before stabilizing the situation around here, right?”

”Yes...we can't afford to enter in large scale conflict with those radical Avians since we are already in some kind of cold war with the Apex and Hylotl.”

After knowing where the Artifact was located, Nicole's frown deepened.

Given the choice, she rather stay as far away as possible from those blind believers of that bloody and merciless Avian religion, the Holy Kluex.

The Avians of the Holy Kluex Theocracy are extremely reclusive and dislike having interactions with non-Avians.

They are so reclusive that to stay very far away from Letheia's sphere of influence, they developed their own mining technique and technology that used some materials that could only be found in Avos, the crystal known as Avolite.

Avolite is simply a rare crystal that could be used as energy source just like Core Fragments, but they were a lot more powerful, almost as 20 times, compared with Core Fragments.

Their amount of energy was almost as close to that contained in Crystal Erchius.

Using the Avolite, the Avians created their own weaponry that was the strongest in the universe. Of course, the Avians use these weapons only for defense, and arming their fleets that won't leave the few planets that composed the Holy Kluex Theocracy.

The mysteries behind this crystal were many, and even the Hylotl, Miniknog and Human spy network couldn't get their hands of the secrets of how to mine and use the crystal.
