“Ten Thousand Demon Ridge? What kind of place is that?” Su Nan was curious, as it was the first time he had heard of this place.
The old man explained, “Ten Thousand Demon Ridge is the territory of the demon clan. Originally, Dongchen State had not only nine counties, but twelve.”
“Unfortunately, after ancient times, three counties were completely occupied by the demon clan, and those three counties are collectively referred to as the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge.”
Su Nan suddenly understood, and his heart was filled with astonishment.
The number of demons in the Nine Counties’ land had already far exceeded the number of human warriors. It was unimaginable how many demons there would be in the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge.
“Lord, what will be the impact on other nodes if a node is broken?”
The old man said solemnly, “If the array nodes in the other eleven states are broken, there will be no impact on our Dongchen State.”
“However, if an array node is broken in the Nine Counties of our Dongchen State, the suppression ability of all other array nodes in Dongchen State against demons would decline even further.”
“At that time, not only spirit-level demons, but even early-stage Xuan-level demons, and possibly even mid-stage Xuan-level demons, might be able to approach the array nodes.”
Suppression further weakened!
Su Nan secretly nodded, as this was within his speculation.
“After this incident, I will allow you to enter my Governor Mansion’s treasure vault to choose a treasure as a reward.”
Choosing a treasure?
Su Nan’s heart moved and said, “Governor, could I choose now? If I can increase my strength now, won’t I have a better chance of succeeding?
“You want to choose in advance?”
The old man frowned, fell silent for a moment, and nodded, “You are right. If you can complete the task, the item will naturally be yours. If you cannot complete the task, giving you the item now would increase the chances of completing it.”
The old man was not rigid and agreed with Su Nan’s request.
After speaking, he looked at Tian He and said, “General Tian, please escort
Director Zhang to the treasure vault to choose an item.”
Tian He nodded and said to Su Nan, “Director Zhang, please follow me.”
The treasure vault of the Governor Mansion is located in the west courtyard.
This place is heavily guarded.
After a few turns, Tian He led Su Nan to an underground chamber.
There was a black-clothed old man at the peak of Xuan-level guarding the chamber.
“Old Qiu, I’ve been ordered by the governor to bring Director Zhang to select a treasure,” Tian He said respectfully to the black-clothed old man on guard.
“Oh?” The black-clothed old man looked surprised, obviously recognizing Su
Nan, and a sharp light appeared in his eyes:
“So, this is the newly-appointed Demon Hunting Bureau Chief? No wonder a hero comes from the youth!”
