Starting With 3 S-Class Talents Chapter 378 - Reading The Diary, Had Arrived Unexpectedly

Chapter 378 - Reading The Diary, Had Arrived Unexpectedly

"Energy from the ancient battlefields?" sighed Vincent in surprise.

He did not expect the energy that was compatible with Avril to be so troublesome to obtain.

It was not going to be easy for him to get them from the major trading venues. It was easier said than done to find an ancient battlefield!

Avril also sighed helplessly, "When I was looking for you previously, I accidentally entered an ancient battlefield and discovered this secret. Otherwise, I would not have been able to advance my level at all. I would not be able to catch up to Angelina."

Vincent nodded and said, "This is the difference between the G.o.d of war body and the Netherspirit body! Even though you are both at the same cultivation level, the G.o.d of war body's power is still stronger, so it must be more difficult to cultivate! Nevertheless, I'll help you pay attention to news regarding ancient battlefields. I guarantee that you will be able to increase your cultivation speed!"

Avril pursed her lips and nodded with a smile. However, she did not have much hope in her heart.

Vincent looked at the crowd and said, "Actually, there's one more thing that I need your help with this time!"

Whether it was Avril, Ebenezer, or Angelina, who was talking to Andy, they all replied in unison, "What is it?"

Vincent took out the storage ring that he had gotten from Jacob. He then took out all the diary entries in the ring. He then proceeded to take out two more diary entries from his own storage ring.

"This is the diary I got from a Dark Elf. It records all his life experiences. He vaguely mentioned something that happened twenty years ago. It seems to be related to the City Lord of Devil Flame City, Andre. There must be a big secret hidden in it!

"Unfortunately, the records of that experience are very general. I can't find out the specific events and locations, so I want you to help me find out if there are any parts that mention this experience from the remaining diaries. Perhaps we can deduce the secret based on the other diary entries!" said Vincent softly.

He then distributed the two diaries in his hands for everyone to read.

After hearing this, everyone could not help but become curious. Even Andy, who was not familiar with Vincent, could not help but come over to help out. She also read the contents of the diary together with the others.

When everyone finished reading the diaries, they became very curious. This was especially so when they were at the end of one of the diary entries. They wanted to know what Jacob had done in that year.

Avril guessed, "It seems that the matter is confirmed to be related to the demons. It is likely that it has something to do with Gajero too!"

Ebenezer sighed blankly, "An adventure with a slim chance of survival… Could they have entered the Black Hole world to explore?"

Andy, who had just joined the group, shook her head and said, "If they entered the Black Hole world, how could it be impossible to record it? Moreover, the panic in Jacob's words must be related to the most important secret of the Elf Race. Perhaps they have done some irreversible damage to the Elf Race's World!"

Vincent immediately raised his head to look at Andy and asked with a frown, "Are you talking about the Origin Divine Earth of the elves?"

Andy looked at Vincent in surprise. She did not expect Vincent to know the most precious treasure of the elves. At the same time, she could not help but feel a little afraid of Vincent.

Vincent smiled and said, "You elves are not the only ones who know the secrets of the elves. The Dark Elves in Devil Flame City are also aware of it. With my current position in Devil Flame City, it is certainly not difficult for me to know these secrets. I may even know more than you! So, you don't have to ask me if I have malicious intentions. Because whether I have malicious intentions or not, you can't stop me!"

Andy lowered her head helplessly. This was because she knew that Vincent was not bluffing. He did show up with Dave after all. With Dave's position in Devil Flame City, what kind of information could Vincent not get?

Vincent then asked, "So now, are you willing to tell me what you know? You don't have to tell me about the Origin Divine Tree and Origin Divine Earth. Instead, tell me about what happened 20 years ago.

After hearing Vincent mention the Origin Divine Tree, Andy could not help but raise her head in surprise again. She replied helplessly, "Since you know about the Origin Divine Tree, you must also know about the relations.h.i.+p between the Origin Divine Tree and the Origin Divine Earth. I once heard from my teacher that ever since Gajero invaded the Elf World, the originally common Origin Divine Tree had become increasingly rare. However, an Origin Divine Tree would still appear once in a while in the depths of the Tias Mountains. Yet, as time pa.s.sed, the cycle of the Origin Divine Tree appearing had become longer and longer. It wasn't until a few years ago that an Origin Divine Tree finally appeared. However, I don't really know what happened 20 years ago… All I heard was that a newly grown Origin Divine Tree had withered in the blink of an eye. One must know that the Origin Divine Tree symbolizes the endless vitality of the Origin Divine Earth. Under normal circ.u.mstances, it would never wither. From then on, the Origin Divine Tree had never appeared again!"

Vincent could not help but sigh softly after hearing that. Although he could not be sure that what Andre did back then was related to the disappearance of the Origin Divine Tree, he was definitely suspicious of him.

At that moment, Angelina, who was most confident, flipped through the diary in her hand and said, "This entry is recorded on the last page of the diary. If we find the entries for the following days, we might be able to find something!"

Vincent shook his head and said, "It's useless. Because the following diary is even more ambiguous!"

When everyone heard this, they could not help but look at the second diary that Vincent took out.

Avril was very curious. She picked up the diary and began to read it out loud for everyone to hear.

"New Year 4396, Day 274. We are setting off today. Everyone is very nervous. After all, what Andre is going to do is indeed crazy! Although everyone who partic.i.p.ated in the mission is wearing masks and none of us know each other's true ident.i.ties, I can still confirm that the vast majority of these men are maniacs who kill others like they are nothing. Some of them are even more brutal than me. However, even such a group of men are actually rus.h.i.+ng forward in silence. It seems that fear has already spread to everyone's hearts!"

"New Year 4396, Day 280. As expected, when everyone took off their masks and revealed their ident.i.ties, everyone realized that their companions on this trip were all notorious criminals and thugs. However, they were not on guard against each other because of the notoriety of the others. Instead, they became even more united! Because our members have already started to die, and their deaths were very tragic. It was as if we saw our own fates. After all, we have all done unforgivable things!"

"New Year 4396, Day 286. There are only six of us left. Everyone originally had the idea of ending the mission and returning home. However, Andre increased the reward of the mission and even promised to give everyone a high official position. This made the others decide to continue completing the mission. However, I remained clear-headed. No matter how great the reward was, I still had to live in order to have value! So I proposed to withdraw, but Andre threatened me and asked the others to take turns to monitor me. Although they didn't say it explicitly, I could feel the distrust in their eyes!"

"New Year 4396, Day 288. Andre's strength is even stronger than I imagined. Although I successfully escaped from the team, I was also heavily injured. I hope that the Great G.o.d will bless me and allow me to get out alive. If I die here in the end, I will definitely curse Andre to die a horrible death!"

"New Year 4396, Day 293. I've finally escaped successfully. It feels good to be reborn. At the same time, I've also blown up the only entrance. I guarantee that no one will be able to come out alive! Since Andre dared to hurt me, then he should go to h.e.l.l. I'm leaving. I'll never return to this place again. At the same time, I've decided to make the name Jacob disappear from this place!"

Avril looked up blankly after reading all the relevant content in the diary. She sighed, "It seems to record a lot of things, but it also seems to say nothing. What is he worried about? Why can't he record it in more detail?"

Vincent shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either, but I suspect that Jacob is worried about the demons guarding Imperial City. Perhaps Andre hired these vicious demons because he was a.s.signed by them!"

Ebenezer then asked, "Since there are demons watching in the dark, why would Jacob dare to blow up the entrance and block everyone's escape route? Moreover, it seems that he did not succeed. Isn't Andre still alive and well?"

Vincent could not help but think of the Heavenly Demon Token that he had swindled from Miller. He sighed, "First of all, Jacob's mind should have been filled with revenge at that time. He did not have any concerns. The demons only cared about the outcome of the a.s.signed mission. They did not care about the process! As long as someone completes the task in the end, they will not pursue who had made a mistake in the process!"

Angelina pondered and said, "In other words, the demons might not have only sent Andre to carry out the task. They also did not care about Andre's life or death! So, did Andre complete the task in the end? How did he come back alive?"

Vincent spread his hands and said, "This is exactly what we need to find out. I always feel that after this matter, there must be a secret about the Demon Race that we don't know about!"

Everyone immediately started to read the other diaries with high morale.

After sifting through all the diaries before New Year 4396, there were more than 60 diaries left. Including Andy who had joined them voluntarily, each person had to read more than 15 diaries each. It was definitely a very time-consuming task!

Vincent handed all the diaries to everyone and said seriously, "I still have many things to do in Devil Flame City, so I don't have time to carefully search for the information in the diaries, so I'll leave it to you!"

Angelina and Avril nodded and said, "Leave these things to us. Don't worry! If we find something, how should we inform you?"

Vincent thought for a moment before turning to Ebenezer. He instructed, "In the future if you have any matters, go to the north gate of Devil Flame City. This is because the general of the north gate is already dead. When we return to the city, I will work hard with Dave to fight for control of that place. From now on, it can be our joint landing point!"

Ebenezer nodded and said, "Alright! My current stealth state is already very proficient. As long as it is after dark, no one will be able to discover me. But I will be waiting for you at the bottom of the city wall!"

After everything had been arranged, Vincent could not help but sigh in relief.

"Alright, I was originally worried that you guys would encounter the Zerg, but now I'm relieved. Not only is everyone safe, but they have also facilitated the peace talks between Dave and the elves in advance. What a great harvest!"

"Boom!"

Just as Vincent's voice had yet to fade away, the entire safe house suddenly began to shake violently. What shocked everyone, even more, was that the source of the shaking was coming from Horace's room.

Ebenezer stood up and sighed in surprise, "What's going on? Did the negotiations fall apart?"

Andy also called out worriedly, "Master!"

Vincent could not help but be stunned at that moment. This was because he understood Dave's plan. He also understood the demands of Horace and the elves. There was no possibility of the negotiations falling apart.

It was because of this that Vincent did not accompany Dave in. He wanted to create an opportunity for Dave to gain experience.

But what was going on?

At that moment, their room door instantly shattered. Horace grabbed Dave's shoulder and instantly rushed out. Both of their faces were filled with fear.

"Run! This place is about to collapse!"

Horace did not explain any further. Instead, he shouted for everyone to leave through the main door.

Vincent saw that Dave was not injured. Instead, he was cooperating with Horace to lead them away. He immediately understood that the violent shaking was not because of the two of them, but because of something else!

In an instant, the safe house started to shake even more violently. Countless amounts of soil began to fall from the top of their heads. It looked like it was about to collapse completely.

Vincent did not hesitate any longer and quickly exchanged a look with Avril.

Avril turned around and stored all the diary entries into her storage ring. She then pulled Angelina and quickly rushed out of the door.

Vincent, on the other hand, signaled Ebenezer to leave first. After that, he turned around and carried Andy who had difficulty moving. They followed behind everyone.

Horace and Dave were the first to rush out of the safe house. They hid in an empty s.p.a.ce in front of the crack.

Avril and Angelina also escaped successfully. However, just as Ebenezer rushed out of the crack, the safe house behind him instantly collapsed. It was pressing down on Vincent and Andy, who had yet to come out. Only the giant rock, which had been used as an exit, remained standing in place.

Horace shouted with his eyes wide open, "Andy!"

Avril and the others also shouted in shock, "Vincent!"

When Dave saw this, he wanted to rush forward and dig Vincent out of the soil. However, he was stopped by Ebenezer.

Dave struggled and shouted at Ebenezer, "What are you doing? I'm going to save him!"

"Don't move. I'm more worried about master than you are. But look over there!"

Ebenezer held Dave down forcefully and pointed at the other end of the giant rock.

Dave turned his head and looked over the giant rock in front of him. He saw a four-meter-long spider crawling on the other side of the ruins of the safe house!

At that moment, one of the spider's sharp claws was deeply embedded in the ground. It seemed to be stuck and was trying its best to pull itself out.

Beside its claws was a dying Dark Elf who was dressed in a high priest's robe.

At the same time, Dave was shocked to see the path behind the spider. It had smashed through all the trees. There was a trail of Dark Elves corpses. It was obvious that the spider had chased these Dark Elves all the way here!

Avril and the others also noticed the huge spider. It was only separated from them by a huge boulder. They could not help but widen their eyes in shock.

When Horace saw its claw deeply embedded in the ground, he immediately sighed, "Just now, it was this fellow's claw that entered my room and caused the entire safe house to collapse. I want to kill it and avenge my disciple!"

After seeing that Horace wanted to rush up and fight the huge spider with his life, Dave hurriedly shouted, "Don't go over! This thing should be the Zerg that escaped from Devil Flame City. It has the strength of a level 60 creature!"

After hearing what Dave said, Avril and Angelina immediately stopped Horace who was about to rush up. They stopped him from both sides.

Avril said to Horace calmly, "Don't be rash first. Although the safe house has collapsed, there should still be s.p.a.ce below. Now that Andy and Vincent are down there, their lives are unknown. If we anger this giant creature, it will definitely cause an even more violent incident to occur. When that time comes, it will be really dangerous for them to be buried down there!"

When Horace heard this, he could only grit his teeth and stop. His face was filled with hatred as he looked at the terrifying Zerg in front of him.

At the same time, the eight eyes on the Zerg's head rotated for a moment. It turned to look at everyone's position.

"Roar!"

The Zerg seemed to have its eye on fresh prey again and let out an excited roar. At the same time, it used even more strength to twitch its claws.

The safe house that had already collapsed continued to collapse even more under the struggle of the Zerg.

When everyone saw this, they could not help but shout out loud.

"No!"

"Boom!"

At that moment, a large hole was instantly ripped open at the top of the collapsed safe house. A pillar of fire soared into the sky. Immediately after, Vincent spread his Flaming Wings and appeared in the air with Andy in his arms.

When everyone saw the scene, they all smiled happily. At the same time, their hearts finally relaxed a little.

Vincent, who was in the sky, had a very wide field of vision. He saw that everyone was safe. He also naturally saw the huge spider under his feet.

Vincent had seen the appearance of the Zerg in the memories of the Immortal remains. At that moment, he could not help but exclaim, "F*ck, how did he get here?"

When Avril saw this, she could not help but shout at Vincent, "Now is not the time to worry about how it appeared. Hurry up and run!"

Vincent suddenly noticed that under the Zerg, there seemed to be a figure that was still breathing. He leaped down from the air and landed in front of everyone.

After handing Andy to Horace, Vincent said to Avril in a deep voice, "Everyone, leave now and run toward the depths of the mountain range!"

"Then what are you doing..."

Just as Avril was about to ask, Vincent had already turned around and rushed below the Zerg.
