Chapter 954: The Secret Within
September 25, 2017
Beifeng City, the Training Grounds.
Ever since the appearance of a massive pillar of light, this place has become the focus of various factions' spies and informants.
Over the past few days, more than a dozen agents from different factions have lost their lives within.
However, the more this happens, the more these factions' backers are determined to uncover the secrets within. Some have even deployed Outsiders to gather information.
Speaking of Outsiders, Lu Hai Kong's side is absolutely not lacking in this regard.
Under the control of the Outsider House, Lu Hai Kong's team is filled with talented individuals. Just in terms of martial might, there are over ninety of them, including Tai Shi and Ye Xun. With their protection, the spies and informants from various factions have all been defeated.
After two consecutive days of this situation, those spies and informants have temporarily calmed down.
Of course, this calmness indicates that they have merely chosen to change their approach to uncover the secret.
At this point, everyone knows that Lu Hai Kong's team is well-guarded, and it's nearly impossible for them to force their way in. In this case, they can only resort to other methods.
Beifeng City, a residential area.
An Outsider with a slightly anxious expression waits inside, occasionally standing up to check the situation outside, as if waiting for someone.
After several minutes, while the Outsider is still waiting, a person with a black face towel arrives at this residence.
"You've finally come!" Seeing the arrival, the Outsider's face reveals a hint of joy.
The person with the black face towel takes out a book and a bottle of pills, placing them on the Outsider's table. "This is your payment. Of course, only if you provide me with satisfying intelligence can you take these away!"
The Outsider looks at the book and the bottle of pills, a barely suppressed excitement on their face, then takes out a piece of paper.
The Outsider spreads the paper in front of the person with the black face towel, revealing a drawing of Lu Hai Kong's Beifeng Training Grounds. "What you want is this, the stone door within the Training Grounds that's been sealed. It's said that behind this stone door connects to another world..."
"Swoosh!"
Before the Outsider can finish their sentence, an arrow flies by, piercing their forehead.
At the same time, another volley of arrows flies towards the person with the black face towel, hitting their target. The person's face changes in shock, reaching out to grab the Outsider's paper, then crushing a prop in their hand, causing the person to disappear without a trace.
……………………
As news about the 'Mysterious Stone Door' spreads in Beifeng City, in the Shi Huang Tomb, Lu Hai Kong is struggling hard.
From the moment Lu Hai Kong entered the Shi Huang Tomb to now, five days have passed.
During these five days, Lu Hai Kong has observed and fought, slowly piecing together all the information about the Shi Huang Tomb. Now, Lu Hai Kong's understanding of the Shi Huang Tomb is quite comprehensive.
Firstly, the geographical environment here seems to be an independent instance space, specifically created for this instance. The space is quite large, within a hundred li radius of the Shi Huang Tomb, there are no other humans or leveling points, but this space has a decent ecological environment.
Apart from the environment, even more crucial is Lu Hai Kong's understanding of the Shi Huang Tomb.
Over these five days, Lu Hai Kong has conducted several test attempts to understand the Shi Huang Tomb. There were legion raids and solo attempts.
The legion raid was thwarted not by the soldier statues but by the various military facilities within the Shi Huang Tomb. The powerful crossbows and catapults directly forced Lu Hai Kong to halt their advance.
Unable to withstand it, Lu Hai Kong tried, even this kind of attack would be unbearable for even the [Iron Blood Guards], a [Pseudo-Top Tier Unit].
As for solo attempt, Lu Hai Kong and San Gong tried together, initially they were able to infiltrate quite easily.
After all, the martial might of these two individuals is off the charts, but soon they had to retreat.
Before even reaching the mountain palace complex, they were continuously ambushed from a distance, various traps and mechanisms exhausted them. After all, they are humans, no matter how strong their martial might, they can get tired too," Lu Hai Kong and San Gong had to withdraw.
But over these five days, we haven't left empty-handed," Lu Hai Kong said, continuing to fight the soldier statues. "They don't respawn. So, if we can defeat these tens of thousands of soldier statues..."
