At this moment, Baiyu appeared calm on the surface, but inside he was panicking to death.
This is the Demon City.
The capital of the Demon Race, filled with countless formidable alien races. Once discovered, the outcome would be getting thrown directly into boiling oil.
Those captured by alien races never had a good ending.
At this moment.
After Baiyu secretly questioned the other's identity, the voice slowly spoke after a long while: "Young friend, I am also of the Human Race, though I've been imprisoned here for a long time. If you rescue me, I have..."
Before he could finish.
Baiyu directly used spirituality to cover his ears, completely blocking the rest of the words from the other person.
"Hey?"
"Don't be like this, young friend. We still have a lot to discuss."
"Bastard, don't think I won't go all out!"
The voice kept shouting in the dark.
But Baiyu didn't hear it at all until ten minutes later, when he actively lifted the spiritual block, and the voice finally reached his ears:
"Kid, I'm offering you a tremendous opportunity."
"It's tough enough to get a living person in here, am I really that unlucky..."
Baiyu worried that he might reveal his situation.
However, without special circumstances, he probably wouldn't do that. After all, he still wanted to rely on Baiyu to leave; it was impossible to do something detrimental to himself.
"If you are willing to have a good talk, I'm very willing to communicate with you."
Baiyu voiced internally at this moment.
Upon hearing this, the voice quickly replied: "Rest assured, as long as you help me escape, I promise you'll live a lifetime of glory and wealth.
In the Lion Country.
If I am alive, no one will dare to trouble you."
Baiyu frowned: "Are you talking about the Lion Country?"
"Yes, I am the Duke of the Lion Country, Ole Angi!"
The voice suddenly became extremely excited, with a hint of arrogance.
Clearly.
He was very confident about the intimidating power of the title Duke of the Lion Country.
However, the scene of Baiyu being surprised, shocked, and excited did not happen as he expected.
Upon hearing the three words Lion Country.
Baiyu was initially puzzled, then seemed to recall something, and hesitantly asked: "Are you talking about the Lion Country that perished a hundred years ago? That was an imperial entity in the Era of Darkness, now completely vanished into the sands of history, not even a bit of heritage remains."
After saying this.
The voice remained silent for a long while, and after some time, the slightly heavy voice of Ole sounded: "How many years has it been in the Dark Calendar now?"
"The Dark Calendar ended over a hundred years ago; now it's the Bright Calendar."
Baiyu truthfully answered: "The powers, countries, and clans from the Dark Era have basically disappeared entirely.
The current forces on Canglan Star.
Were all established after the Era of Bright.
The Lion Imperial fell over a hundred years ago."
Though some historians believe there is a historical gap between the Dark Era and the Era of Bright, a period of lost history with no records at all.
Baiyu still provided Ole with a complete account of the current situation according to the records in books.
After repeatedly testing and obtaining a definite result, Ole's mood became much gloomier. Even the previous urgent desire to get out had weakened.
Clearly.
Learning about the demise of the Lion Imperial and how the Outer World had long since changed profoundly had dealt a major blow to his heart.
Baiyu didn't know what to say either.
"What is the Outer World like now? Since you could enter the Demon Horn Race's capital, you must have cleared out the alien races, right?"
Ole asked again.
Baiyu truthfully answered: "No, the fact is that alien races are banding together, attacking our shelter.
The current situation is humans and alien races are evenly matched.
Neither side has an overwhelming advantage."
After a moment of silence, Ole sighed: "Is that so? But being able to maintain an even match is already not bad.
The alien races were strong; during the Dark Era, we were pressured across all fronts.
What is the shelter?"
"A city built on ancient human relics, used to seal off large entry and exit points between Canglan Star and the Spirit Realm, preventing alien races from entering Canglan Star."
Baiyu replied.
"Ancient human relics? Didn't expect you to actually utilize that, no wonder."
Ole's tone revealed surprise.
The two talked for a long time, getting to know each other's situations.
Ole wanted to know the current situation of the Outer World, while Baiyu wanted to learn more about things during the Dark Era.
At the end.
Both basically confirmed the other had no issues, and reached the basic tacit understanding needed for cooperation.
"According to your statement, my clan might still exist, the Anji Clan was a top noble in the Lion Imperial, maybe there's still a bloodline intact."
Realizing the reality of the situation.
Ole suddenly felt there might still be a glimmer of hope.
The Anji Clan had great power; even if the Lion Imperial was destroyed, their bloodline might still persist.
"Yes, that's why surviving is the most important, once dead, you can't do anything."
After understanding the other's situation, Baiyu began to console him.
This was someone who fought tirelessly against alien races, always at the front lines, constantly striving.
Both logically and emotionally.
Baiyu should offer assistance.
"How can I save you out of here?"
He hesitated for a moment and then asked.
Ole replied:
"To save me, the main issue is you'll need to get underground.
I am imprisoned in a special rune array below here.
Just need to destroy the rune array.
