Capítulo 938: Chapter 840: If Only I Had Known, Choosing the Pages Matters Too…
Dark Cloud opened its mouth and answered: “The specific thod to go to the Nine-Life Cat Demon’s realm…
requires gathering so materials.
Then, you must find a Nine-Life Cat Demon with only its last life remaining before you can proceed.”
This thod isn’t a secret among Nine-Life Cat Demons with only one or two lives left.
A Nine-Life Cat Demon with only one life isn’t easy to find.
The materials needed to open the portal are mostly extrely precious and cannot be fully collected in a short ti.
Therefore, Dark Cloud answered Yang Yu’s question without reservation.
Yang Yu asked, “So how many lives do you have left?”
“Don’t even think about using !” Dark Cloud glared hard at Yang Yu, “I didn’t want to waste my life, that’s why I’m answering your question now!
If you plan on killing the donkey after the grinding’s done, forcing to answer things I’m forbidden to…
After I reincarnate, not only will I refuse to guide you, but I’ll also make sure my siblings don’t guide you either!”
“I’m just asking casually, don’t be so tense,” Yang Yu said. “I’ve heard that the fewer lives a Nine-Life Cat Demon has left, the more it knows. You know quite a bit, you shouldn’t be one with few lives left… must be so trickery involved before coming to this world, huh?”
Hiss—
Dark Cloud drew in a sharp breath, “How did you know?”
Yang Yu smiled and said, “Your job should be to guard this ruin, to prevent anyone from knowing the truth about it.
That’s why you suddenly appeared when I was about to learn the truth, quickly confirming things with .
To ensure you arrived at this ruin right after coming to this world, to get to work.
Did you have full access to all your mories starting from your first life?”
What sharp insight, Dark Cloud clicked its tongue.
Indeed, if it were an ordinary Nine-Life Cat Demon, they would need to experience multiple deaths before recalling all their mories to fulfill their true mission.
But Dark Cloud is different…
The reason it ca to this world is to prevent anyone from fully inheriting the knowledge within the ruins.
As for when its work will be complete, only three situations:
One, it uses up all nine lives and dies in this world. Two, the ruin is completely destroyed. Three,…..
Originally thought that as ti passed, its work would beco easier.
But first, a group of miners, who valued wealth over their lives, stumbled upon the ruins; later, the Luo Ze Empire forcefully intervened in researching the ruins…
When those researchers removed that thing, Dark Cloud was indeed taken aback.
But after seeing it not reacting to anyone, Dark Cloud finally relaxed, realizing perhaps no one in this world could use it anymore.
No one could obtain the wisdom of the predecessors from that thing; fully decoding the ruins would take thousands of years.
Even if they decode the ruins, as long as they don’t inherit the knowledge within, the Nine-Life Cat Demons are absolutely safe.
Thought the peaceful days would continue, but then Yang Yu appeared as a variable.
It seems like I still can’t let my guard down.
“Looks like I guessed right.
You should know a lot, right?
Like what that ancient civilization was truly like.
But you don’t seem intent on telling .”
Seeing Dark Cloud’s reaction, Yang Yu knew he might have missed this world’s greatest secret.
Dark Cloud’s resignation must an it didn’t gain anything from the ruins.
Dark Cloud said petulantly: “Yes, so what!
So questions, even if you kill , I absolutely will not answer.
I’ll answer your last question, but the condition is that you let go imdiately afterward!
If I answer and you don’t let go, I’ll kill myself in front of you.
Then… I’ll hate you for life.
When you’re dead, I’ll dig up your grave and gnaw on your bones.”
Yang Yu, fearless, “When I’m alive, you don’t dare co, huh. Always bullying the weak, avoiding the strong.”
“Enough nonsense, do you agree or not!”
Yang Yu tried applying pressure on Dark Cloud’s rib, this ti, Dark Cloud held its breath, showing real grit by not making a sound, clearly it was serious.
Sitting cross-legged, Yang Yu put Dark Cloud down.
If the question is too difficult, this Nine-Life Cat Demon probably won’t answer it, just like a giant dragon; if too simple, it’s of little value.
Yang Yu crossed his arms, lost in thought.
Dark Cloud raised its head to scrutinize Yang Yu, searching for any non-human traits on him, but after a long look, didn’t find anything non-human about him, not even strong non-human magic.
While observing, suddenly, Yang Yu raised his large hand, placing several book pages before Dark Cloud, and said:
“You should know these scripts. If you can translate the contents of these pages for , I’ll let you go.”
The cat paw played with the pages left by Yang Yu, and Dark Cloud exclaid: “Where did you get these pages?”
“From a labyrinth built by the forr Hero,” Yang Yu answered swiftly.
“The forr Hero, Lux, I rember that’s the na… speaking of which, Scarjade was by his side too… it shouldn’t be surprising that he could decode these things.”
Dark Cloud mumbled while continuing to ss with the pages, and after quite a while, pushed the pages back to Yang Yu, saying awkwardly:
“These pages involve many sensitive topics, and without permission, we’re forbidden to ntion those terms, plus there’s too much to translate, I’ll only translate two pages.”
Dark Cloud’s cat paw swiped, revealing so pages, refusing to translate their contents.
Yang Yu, with a serious face, held up five fingers, bargaining: “Five pages. Otherwise, decode the pages you swept aside.”
Dark Cloud stared fixedly at Yang Yu, “Three pages. No more. Or pick another question?”
“Deal. Three pages it is.”
Yang Yu gathered up the pages, selecting three consecutive pages, tapping them,
“Let it be these three pages!”
Dark Cloud confird: “Once chosen, it cannot be changed.”
“Yes.”
Dark Cloud sat in front of Yang Yu, coiling its two tails,
“Next, everything I say is based on the translation of this ancient script, listen carefully.
Here goes.
‘In the GK calendar, year 009, June 13th
It’s been over 9 years and 6 months since the plan started, and even now, I don’t know if our plan is correct, or if it will be effective.
But we are willing to believe it will succeed.
Over these years, there have been slight signs of wavering among the populace, to prevent the plan’s halting, I was ordered to lead a clearing there.
Several of my forr friends were among them.
Sorry, friends, in prison, you will eventually understand everything we’ve done.
On a slightly comforting note, the plants have tad magic power, advancing our plan another big step.
As the doctrine says, life is indeed a miracle.
The first to ta magic power was alfalfa, using magic to weave unique fibers and proteins…’
Listening, Yang Yu suddenly felt so parts very familiar.
Upon careful recollection, damn, isn’t this what I heard from the Elf Queen…
If I knew earlier…
I’d have let Iyas choose the pages to translate.
