Chapter 587: It — Something's Off

The God of Life has been discovered? This is a major incident. Everyone was only daring to swagger around hosting the Grain Seed Competition here because the God of Life was lurking within the Starburst Array.

If the God of Life is discovered and purged, could the Starburst Array overhead fire down at any moment?

Seeing Ange's core subordinates quickly gathered to discuss how to respond.

"You mean, the Seed God Sorcerer Radiard used a teleportation array to arrive at an unfamiliar place, where some existence instantly saw through your presence and then purged you?" Anthony asked.

The God of Life replied unhurriedly: "That should be the case."

That answer made Lord Nai Ge fume with rage: "Yes or no, yes or no — what do you mean 'should be'? Old Tree, be serious. Otherwise, if a blast comes down from the sky, we're all done for."

The God of Life said unhurriedly: "What I scattered was only my pollen. Its perception is weak. I only know they were originally attached to 'Gai La De', then suddenly went far away, then suddenly activated and vanished. That's all I can perceive."

Everything has its limits. What the God of Life scattered was only pollen. Being able to sense where the pollen has drifted to is already quite impressive. Pollen has no auditory organs, so it can't hear what others are saying.

Unless the pollen is activated to grow into plants, it can only grant the plants more abilities. In some nooks and crannies of the Starburst Array, there are plants or fungi silently growing that can perceive more things — but the pollen attached to Radiard cannot.

Being able to sense their departure, growth, and destruction is already quite impressive. It's not that it's not being serious. Little Fatty Dragon doesn't care, but the little sapling is here too — it also fears the Starburst Array firing a blast down.

Anthony immediately understood the old tree's meaning and quickly asked: "In other words, your perception of the pollen is relatively weak. So when you sensed the pollen being erased by someone, does that mean this place isn't very far away?"

The old tree nodded: "Not far. Even if the distance from here to above were a hundred times greater, it would still be close."

That really wasn't very far. The distance from the ground to the Starburst Array was roughly a thousand kilometers; a hundred times that was only a hundred thousand kilometers. But in the void, such a distance was truly very, very close — a Sorcerer Ladder could fly there in a day or two.

Anthony turned to Seeing Ange and said: "my lord, we need to make a trip and dig this fellow out."

Lord Nai Ge was startled by this proposal: "Are you mad? We know nothing — not even what kind of existence the other party is — and you want to rush over there blindly? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?"

Anthony said with a smile: "Lord Nai Ge, do you still remember the situation when we interrogated Radiard?"

Lord Nai Ge nodded, but his face was full of confusion — he had no idea what point Anthony was making by bringing up that situation.

"Do you remember when I was intimidating him, I guessed his true objective — resurrecting another Annihilation Sorcerer?" Anthony said.

Now everyone understood: "You mean, the one who erased the God of Life's traces is the Annihilation Sorcerer that Radiard wanted to resurrect?"

"Very likely. If not, then it's still an existence related to the Seed God ability on him," Anthony said.

"Then why are you still having us go over? The Annihilation Sorcerer could even trap Locke — aren't you afraid it'll trap us too?" Lord Nai Ge said.

Anthony said: "That's exactly the main reason I propose we strike now. If the other party is the Annihilation Sorcerer Radiard wanted to resurrect, then he's very likely at his weakest right now. If we wait until he's resurrected, he'll be at the level of someone who can trap Lord Locke."

"Lord Locke right now probably still inherited Your Majesty's power, and even he got trapped. If another one shows up, we'll be in trouble."

It made a lot of sense. Everyone exchanged glances and unanimously approved Anthony's plan.

"Then what about the Grain Seed Competition?" Lord Nai Ge asked.

"Let them compete first. We'll go quickly and come back quickly. Anyway, the Instant Death Halo Stone is already prepared, and Lei Ting can preside. We might even win without us. Silbar is already carrying elven grain seeds — far superior to the common grain seeds of this world," Anthony said.

The group first teleported to the Sorcerer Ladder via the teleportation array, then drove the Sorcerer Ladder toward the location the God of Life had sensed. Two days later, they arrived at this stretch of void, but there was nothing here.

"Old Tree, didn't you say it was here? Why is there nothing?" Lord Nai Ge looked around and asked.

"Maybe it drifted away," the old tree said unhurriedly. "Look for it."

"Pfft! Look for your head. Do you know how vast this stretch of void is? Even if we searched until our next life, we might not find anything," Lord Nai Ge said.

This location was a hundred thousand kilometers from the Starburst Array, already beyond naked-eye visibility. Trying to find some unknown thing in this void was like blindly searching a spherical space over ten thousand kilometers in diameter — and the target might have drifted away. How long would it take to find it?

Searching for something in the void, unless one's luck exploded, required a way to locate it.

The old tree got serious. It jumped down from Seeing Ange's shoulder, planted its feet on the ground, and a vine quickly sprouted from the top of its head.

This vine grew two or three meters tall, then bloomed and bore fruit — a large fruit about a meter in diameter.

Balancing this large fruit on its head, the old tree poked its head out into the void and flung the vine into empty space.

The fruit drifted alone into the void several hundred meters away, then suddenly burst open. Fine white powder exploded outward, spreading in all directions.

After waiting another afternoon, the old tree pointed in a direction and said: "Over there."

Well, this explosive search method really was useful. After flying in the direction the old tree indicated for half an hour, everyone saw a pile of rocks floating in the darkness.

These rocks varied in size — the large ones looked like mountains, the small ones perhaps only fist-sized.

The Sorcerer Ladder slowly approached. Everyone's consciousness swept over the larger rocks, but they couldn't see anything special on them.

"Could it be inside? Can you tell which rock has a hollow interior?" Lord Nai Ge asked.

Feti shook his head: "Soul-scan can't reach the interior. The rock layer might be too thick — my consciousness can't penetrate it."

If Feti's consciousness couldn't penetrate it, then among those present, only Seeing Ange's soul had that possibility. Everyone's gaze turned to Seeing Ange.

Seeing Ange shook his head: "Can't get through, but that one — it's strange."

"Your consciousness can't get through either, so how can you say it's strange?" Lord Nai Ge asked, puzzled.

A Libra Ring emerged from Seeing Ange's back: "You said — mass, volume, fixed. It — something's off."
