Chapter 1071 Devil’s Realm (2/2)
Han Sen tried to contact Moment Queen for assistance, but he was unable to. This told him that this location was not ordinary and getting out would be a trial.
He fingered the Dragon Blood ring and summoned Dragon King. Dragon King was weak, and when he spawned, he appeared as nothing more than a scrawny little dragon that hovered in circles.
”My power fades every time you summon me,” Dragon King said, but then said nothing more. His attention had been immediately snagged by the statue in front of them.
Dragon King exclaimed to Han Sen, ”Dmn it! Why are you here?”
”I'm interested in knowing where here is, first and foremost.” Dragon King seemed to be familiar with the location, which was good news for Han Sen.
”Get out of here. You must go at once!” Dragon King pleaded with worry.
”How? I don't know how to leave,” Han Sen explained.
”What do you mean you don't know how?” Dragon King was visibly panicked, and he swiftly moved on to ask, ”Then, how did you get here in the first place?”
Han Sen explained the events that had transpired in Holy-Sword Shelter, and what had led him up to this point. When he was done with his story, Dragon King looked surprised.
Dragon King was no longer able to speak in hushed tones, it appeared. Again, he shouted, saying, ”That *sshole is cruel. He used a Devil Orb to send you here. Oh well, I guess we better get comfy and await our inevitable deaths.”
”He used a Devil Orb? To send me here to this... what would you call it? Devil Realm? What is so special or unique about this place, exactly?” Han Sen asked.
”Special?” Dragon King shook his head and prepared himself to explain. ”Back in the day...”
Dragon King's speech was abruptly cut short by some unknown force.
”Back in the day, what?” Han Sen asked.
”Look, you just need to know the danger you're in. This place harbors countless creatures, ones that are all hungry. There are also cracks in this dimension,” Dragon King explained more succinctly.
Han Sen smiled in response, saying, ”You do know we are both in the same boat here, yes? By helping me, you're helping yourself get out of this mess. If you're hiding something from me...”
Dragon King seemed to ponder something for a moment. When he was ready to talk again, he said, ”This is Ancient Devil Emperor's Shelter. There was once a war, and one consequence of it was a shattering of the dimension. For some reason, the creatures in this place grew stronger and leveled up. Even in my prime, I would not dare venture here.”
”Someone fought this Ancient Devil Emperor so hard that this was the aftermath?” Han Sen asked in shock.
Dragon King eyed the surroundings and said, ”This is the entrance of the shelter. Scale this statue that's in the image of a devil-woman, and after a hundred-thousand stairs, you will be inside the shelter in full. Unfortunately for you, the stairs have been destroyed.”
