In the slowly twisting and rging space.
Kana stood beside Yorndaren and the others, quietly listening to their account of the journey.
Yorndaren cautiously said, "After receiving your mission, we headed towards the general target area.
However, the range you ntioned was too vague, and the so-called [prison] doesn't seem to be what we originally understood it to be."
Bi'an nodded silently at the side, unable to resist comnting, "This is really irresponsible, assigning a mission like this."
As these words ca out, everyone felt a bit awkward.
Kana chuckled dryly twice and slightly defended, "I'm not as omniscient and omnipotent as you think. As a Prophet, the information I receive is not perfect; it may just be fragnts, simple cognitions, and so ambiguous information.
Because the information is so vague, I need you, I need everyone's help."
"Don't worry, Leader! We will definitely complete it!" Anger was suddenly full of energy, pounding his chest firmly with his fist.
The others also looked very honored, even Bi'an just pursed his lips and stood up straight.
Seeing this scene, Kana smiled and nodded, giving everyone an encouraging look.
Uh, since when did I start speaking such things so casually? Kana felt inexplicably lancholic inside.
Yorndaren continued, "Although we were intercepted by the forces of rats along the way, their troops were limited and scattered very sparsely, so we didn't encounter much obstruction.
Upon reaching the destination, due to the vast search area, we could only gather information while clearing the rat troops. Until recently, we noticed a rat encampnt urgently gathering forces."
Although the five-mber team was powerful, they rarely, without reason, attacked a well-equipped rat camp.
After all, doing so was largely pointless. The powerful and flexible [Soul Guardians] usually perform missions to take heads amidst thousands of troops.
If they rely rushed into a rat camp to kill indiscriminately and then retreated, it wouldn't have much impact. To truly gain a strategic advantage, they still had to coordinate with the main forces to advance.
During missions, as long as the rats did not actively hinder them, or they did not perceive threats from the rats, they would not rashly disrupt those insignificant campings.
Vier added, "The key is that we found their troop movent very urgent, and their target wasn't us."
At that ti, they had already ventured deep into rat-occupied territory, where almost only they were active, with perhaps just rat foraging troops. Under such circumstances, the rats were not targeting them, naturally arousing their curiosity.
"We tracked them all the way, discovering that they seed to be hunting so enemy. The situation was urgent at the ti, we didn't have ti to figure out who they were hunting, so we temporarily followed, tracking and clearing away the extra rat troops."
Upon hearing this, Swade and the others suddenly realized. Reflecting now, it was indeed strange how they managed to escape the pursuit of so many rat troops.
After all, their strength was not considered strong; a few more rats could put them in a dire situation.
"We followed the trail and ca to an underground Sacrificial Altar. At the ti, there weren't these Faceless Ones, but rather so blood-skinned skeletons, zombies, and spiders as evil creatures, not particularly strong.
We cleared these monsters and saved them. We aren't very clear about the details. Just when we were about to finish clearing, an unexpected event occurred, and we were swept into this completely unfamiliar space, also encountering that never-before-seen Evil God."
After hearing their story, Kana nodded, then turned his gaze to Swade and the others.
"Hello, I am the Leader of the Night Watcher..."
The group hurriedly saluted, appearing sowhat flustered and nervous.
Toby obviously understood what Kana wanted to ask and began telling their story without waiting for Kana to speak: "We ca because we wanted to join the Night Watcher and ended up encountering a cultist on the sea...
We survived by luck and later ran into rats; those rats were very crazy...
In the end, we found this place according to the map." He narrated concisely.
Kana now understood the ins and outs of the series of events.
"It seems that only by exploring the outside real world can we understand why this situation occurs." Kana said, waving towards the space in front.
In an instant, everyone was extracted from this space, returning to the underground Sacrificial Altar.
The crimson flas were still burning, the altar towering in the space remained unchanged, and even the surroundings, where bodies should have been densely piled, seed to have never existed, disappearing without a trace.
Only the body of the Faceless One suspended above the altar hung motionless.
Kana looked at the scene in front, pacing back and forth around the altar to inspect.
"This indeed is a place for offering sacrifices, and the target was indeed the [Sovereign of Filth]. But the question is, why?"
Such Sacrificial Altars are everywhere in the world. In the future storyline of the ga, there are several similar scenes in the task chain of the Sovereign of Filth.
And the final battle location is also a larger Sacrificial Altar, only located on the continent of the Dwarf Empire.
Such a small Sacrificial Altar isn't enough to make the Sovereign of Filth risk exposure to draw these few people in.
Faced with such a situation devoid of information from the future, Kana had to speculate based on what he knew and his understanding of reality.
This unexpected turn of events ca so suddenly, he was unprepared and didn't anticipate such a situation arising. There must be so reason behind it, and if it is not clarified, the subsequent developnts will beco very passive.
Moreover, one of Kana's important goals has a link related to this place. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent Vier and the others here to perform a mission, looking for the person imprisoned in the [prison].
The others, seeing Kana pacing and pondering, dared not disturb him, waiting silently on the side.
Kana looked at the Faceless One suspended mid-air. Typically, every Sacrificial Altar should have such an entity. But this one... seed sowhat different.
Kana squinted slightly, suddenly turning his head and fixing his gaze on Swade and the others.
"It suddenly occurred to that I haven't asked your nas, which is quite rude of ." Kana said abruptly.
No one on the scene expected him to suddenly say this.
However, Swade and the others promptly started introducing themselves.
