Prince of the vampires, Carl, walked up to Fang Heng's side and watched the two figures departing quietly. He asked in a low voice, 'Your Majesty, the Federation has prepared to deploy on the outskirts of the Root tribe's habitat. Are we still planning to act?'
Fang Heng gazed into the distance at the Root tribe's camp and shook his head, saying in a deep voice, 'There's no need. Have them stop imdiately.'
Pride's strength currently surpassed his own. Forcefully attacking the Root tribe's camp would not yield favorable results and might even provoke hostility from Pride.
For now, maintaining the current situation was acceptable to him.
Fang Heng had a premonition that Pride was scheming sothing within the Root tribe's camp, otherwise, he wouldn't be so accommodating.
"We have less than four days left," Fang Heng said. "Inform the Federation to temporarily seal off this area. The black fog pollution here is very dangerous and there's a risk of it spreading."
"Understood!"
...
"Is that so? Both the Leaf tribe and the Wood Tribe..."
Within the Soul tribe's habitat, Elder Jeno listened to Tippy's statent, his tone tinged with so sorrow.
"They have chosen these paths themselves; we cannot interfere. For now, we need to unite all our strength to find ways to control the spread of pollution..." Jeno pondered, tapping his fingers on the wooden armrest of his chair, then continued, "In any case, we must first find a way to confine the pollution to the 'Inner World', to buy us more ti."
Tippy nodded. "Yes, Great Elder, I understand. I've already arranged for soone to establish contact with the Root tribe..."
Just as she was speaking, a Soul tribe guard entered and whispered a few words in Tippy's ear.
Tippy's expression changed.
"Tippy, what's wrong?"
"Reporting, Great Elder, Fang Heng has arrived and is currently waiting outside the Great Hall. Additionally, he brings very bad news."
"What is it?"
"The Root tribe has been completely overtaken by pollution and has beco servants of Shaluba. Currently, Shaluba can freely enter and exit the 'Inner World' through the Root tribe's passages."
The Great Elder Jeno of the Soul tribe fell silent for a mont, eventually letting out a heavy sigh.
"Is that so... What a pity."
"In that holy war, many were affected by pollution and beca puppets of Shaluba. From that mont on, they completely lost their divine consciousness and stood against us, becoming enemies. This is also the most terrifying aspect of Shaluba."
Tippy asked, "Great Elder, there's another matter. Have you ever heard of the White Abyss?"
"The White Abyss... The White Abyss..."
Jeno muttered the na softly to himself several tis, then shook his head and looked at Tippy, saying, "I've never heard of it. What place is that?"
"We discovered so clues about the White Abyss in the records we unearthed from the temple ruins of the Elders Council in the Inner World. According to the records, the ancestors of the tree spirit tribe obtained the Nightfall Stone from the White Abyss. We will continue our investigation in hopes of making further discoveries."
"Well done, Tippy. Your efforts are greatly appreciated."
"For the continuation of our tribe, I will spare no effort," Tippy solemnly replied. "There is another matter to report, Great Elder. With the help of the vampires, we successfully teleported all the data from the temple in such a short ti. I believe the vampires can assist us in countering the demonic seed Shaluba. Please authorize Fang Heng and his companions to enter the treehouses of the Soul tribe habitat to search for relevant books and information."
"Very well, proceed. From now on, all decisions regarding the demonic seed will be entrusted to you. You are the next in line to be the Great Elder of the Soul tribe, and it's ti for you to take charge."
"Thank you for your trust, Elder!"
Tippy nodded and left hurriedly.
Leaving the Great Hall, Tippy was led by a guard of the Soul tribe to the resting hall, where Sandy and Fang Heng were waiting. She nodded imdiately upon seeing them. "Both of you, the Great Elder has agreed to allow you to examine the ancient books in the treehouses. Please follow ."
"Alright!"
Sandy's face lit up with excitent.
Among all the tribes, the Soul tribe had the most complete collection of ancient books from the ancient tis of the tree spirits.
Upon returning to the 'Inner World', the Soul tribe was the first to enter the Elders Council and various sealed lands, gathering all available ancient books and docunts, and carefully storing them in the treehouses of the Soul tribe.
In addition, a significant portion of the Soul tribe's library consists of cipher books used for decrypting encrypted information.
They spent half a day transporting a large number of ancient books from the hidden temple of the Elders Council, which will require cipher books for translation.
Fang Heng followed Tippy into the Soul tribe camp until they entered the treehouse caves, where he realized the vast extent of the ancient books stored by the Soul tribe.
"Wow, it's so huge?"
Seeing a tree hollow about the size of a football field filled with shelves, Sandy was also astonished.
The treehouse was oval-shaped, resembling a sports stadium.
Every wall was divided into wooden grids, filled with layers of books.
Tippy nodded, feeling a bit emotional herself.
"When the Great Elder left the 'Inner World', he carried a vast amount of ancient books. I was curious at the ti, but now I think the Elders Council must have been prepared to confront the forces of pollution..."
Sandy rubbed his hands together, ready to get to work.
"Let's begin. Which layer contains the cipher books?"
Most of the newly acquired ancient books were encrypted by the Elders Council, making complete decryption a ti-consuming task.
To aid in this effort, Tippy enlisted the help of fellow tribespeople to assist in translating the books.
Tippy raised her hand gently, causing a wooden shelf from a distant wall to slowly descend, its vines carefully placing one book after another onto a round table.
"These are all cipher books, arranged chronologically according to the terms of each sacred tree."
Upon hearing about the ciphers, Fang Heng felt a headache coming on. His zombie clone, unable to assist with translating such information, stood idly by for a while before realizing he couldn't be of much help. He decided to rest his eyes and prepare for a while.

After a while, feeling drowsy, Fang Heng opened his eyes again to see Sandy still enthusiastically translating information. Unable to stifle a yawn, he asked, "How's it going?"
Sandy waved a hand dismissively without looking back, casually replying, "Not so fast. We're just getting started."
Fang Heng shrugged helplessly.
The ga mission seed to have hit a dead end at this stage. Well, since they couldn't find any clues about the White Abyss in the ga for now, perhaps it was ti to log out and brainstorm outside the ga.
Fang Heng exchanged a brief farewell with Tippy, then followed the Soul tribe guard back to the guest room to rest, logging off right there.
...
Returning to offline mode, Fang Heng imdiately ssaged personnel from Black Castle, Old Black, and Starfish Company, inquiring about any leads related to the White Abyss.
Starfish Company responded promptly, asking if Fang Heng had stumbled upon another hidden ga event nad White Abyss. They expressed strong interest in participating together, suggesting a joint effort to exploit resources within the ga world, and offered highly favorable terms.
