359 Getting Information
That doctor would probably be unable to leave the Dwarf Kingdom even if he crawled. However, after the doctor finished speaking, King Fenry could not help but sigh, “You all don’t understand at all. There was no hope left for him, and he entrusted me to bring him to the snowfield.”
At this point, King Fenry seemed to be immersed in his memories. He did not care if the doctor was listening or not and continued to talk about the past.
“The previous King of Lumen was framed by the current King of Lumen until he became permanently disabled. He can no longer take on any responsibility for the country. The previous king’s only hope is for me to bring him into the snowfield. He wants to see the snow for the last time. Then, he passed on in the snowfield.”
After King Fenry finished speaking, a drop of crystal clear tears slowly fell from the corner of his eye.
The doctor did not believe King Fenry’s words and kept shouting, “Impossible! That’s not what they told me. You are lying to me!”
Lu Le and Bing Qingqing came back when the doctor was shouting. They brought back a person, and that person’s face was covered. The person was scared. He was probably very dissatisfied with being caught this time.
If Lu Le and Bing Qingqing had not arrived in time, the person would have run away long ago.
On the other hand, the doctor was lying on the ground, unable to move. He was still immersed in the truth that King Fenry had told him, unable to move.
Until King Fenry took out a piece of jade. It was the jade that the King of Lumen had sealed with his own power. Anyone who saw the jade was equivalent to seeing the King of Lumen in person.
Only the King of Lumen could undo the seal because this seal was a mystic realm that he had created using himself as a restriction.
Only the King of Lumen knew where the key was. In other words, the jade in King Fenry’s hands was indeed something that the King of Lumen had personally given to King Fenry.
The doctor was instantly speechless when he saw that jade.
After a moment of silence, the doctor muttered in a daze, “This is impossible! They lied to me! They lied to me!”
Su Bai felt helpless as he listened to the doctor repeating his words.
The doctor felt that he was just a minor character and a stepping stone for others. To achieve their own wishes, they could be sacrificed at will.
Su Bai did not like this kind of thing happening. His gaze turned cold as he looked at the person that Lu Le and the others had captured.
“Tell me the whole truth. If I liked what I heard, I could spare your life,” said Su Bai. After that, the man snorted as if he would not utter a word.
As everyone knew, the trick was not about being old as long as it was effective. Moreover, since the first time was effective, the second time would be equally effective.
Su Bai created an illusion for that other captive. In the illusion, there were only Su Bai and the criminal’s figure.
Su Bai looked down at the captive. To prevent the assassination like before, Su Bai had set up a trap around the area. Once someone came out, the trap would directly attack the other party. If the other party escaped, his whereabouts would be exposed.
King Fenry had obviously not recovered from the pain when he heard the words, Kingdom of Lumen.
Moreover, the doctor was the son of the previous King of Lumen. It made King Fenry’s heart ache even more. So, King Fenry entrusted the matters to Su Bai.
After Su Bai took over the interrogation, he did not hold back anymore. Other than interrogating the traitor, he also wanted to interrogate the doctor.
Su Bai wanted to know who exactly were the “they” that the doctor said lied to him. Also, Su Bai wanted to find out who else could stand above the country and attack these seemingly very powerful countries.
Su Bai examined the prisoner. Sure enough, the captive began to confess after he was in the illusion, “I’m almost done with the mission you tasked me with! But Su Bai came out of nowhere. He was strong. He was only a Gold-level Beastmaster, but somehow he was able to track us. Elder Hua Yuan, when will I return to the Kingdom of Lumen? Do you have any other instructions?”
Su Bai smiled and thought, ‘So everything began in the Kingdom of Lumen. But didn’t they say that the current King of Lumen was a tyrant who did nothing but eat, drink, and play every day? Something is definitely fishy about this matter.’
Su Bai shook his head and put away the illusion. He could not get any more information from the captive.
On the other hand, King Fenry finally understood everything. He said, “I see. It seems that someone had been manipulating us!”
That included the Dwarf Kingdom and the Kingdom of Lumen.
‘I wonder if there are other things in the Dwarf Kingdom. Otherwise, why would they be targeted?’ Su Bai thought as he stared at King Fenry.
Su Bai was now very sure that the other party was not after the throne but the entire Dwarf Kingdom, just like the Kingdom of Lumen.
First, the other party thought of a way to get rid of the previous king, and then they arranged for a lecher to become king. Everything was actually for the sake of getting something from the Dwarf Kingdom, not for the throne.
To be precise, the mastermind wanted a puppet king that he could control.
After hearing Su Bai’s words, King Fenry sighed heavily, “It’s probably because of the Spirit Pool. It has the power to create everything.”
Su Bai had heard of the Spirit Pool. It was an existence that could create and destroy everything.
It was said that there were countless resources inside, but after entering, one needed to experience it. If one was lucky, one could come out smoothly. Otherwise, one might die there.
Su Bai thought for a while and said, “If they wanted the Spirit Pool, why didn’t they go and find it themselves?”
After Su Bai finished speaking, King Fenry was still sighing, “It’s not that easy. Currently, the Spirit Pool no longer belongs to the Dwarf Kingdom. It belongs to the Heavencraft City.”
Su Bai rubbed his chin and realized that he had never seen the governor of Heavencraft City. However, these countries all respected the governor of Heavencraft City very much.
The people would follow the governor of Heavencraft City’s words and would not go against him. Yet, everyone’s understanding of the governor was a mystery.
No one knew the true face of the governor nor where he was. He was like a ghost, and the others would only hear his orders. Even the kings were no exception.
Su Bai was curious. He even felt that there were other problems.
But King Fenry did not say anything else. Su Bai and the others did not want to waste their time here.
After obtaining the Bloody Hexworm the last time, Su Bai had yet to fully understand this matter. So, he returned to his room and continued to comprehend the precepts again from where he stopped.
But this time, after Su Bai activated Absolute Zero, he discovered that Absolute Zero seemed to have a strong pull on the precepts .
‘Will I be able to comprehend more precepts if I use more Absolute Zero?’ Su Bai wondered.
