Super Gene - Chapter 1398

Chapter 1398




"Yu Xuan, now that I am a part of the Outer Sky Shelter territory, perhaps you could tell me more about what I will be walking into? The more intel I have going in, the better I can perform . " Han Sen knew the mission would be dangerous, so he would have preferred going in with at least some semblance of an idea of what he might face .

Yu Xuan looked at Qing Le, prompting him to speak . He said, "Unfortunately, we don't know much about the shelter . And as for what our previous team faced on the inside, there is no proof that can verify the claims made by the three who made it out . "

Han Sen wasn't sure what the implication was, but he frowned .

He allowed Qing Le to continue talking, after a pause . "The three men that returned claimed the same things, but when pressed to elaborate, their explanations for what transpired when they were all killed were different . Still, we were fortunate to hear much of anything, with the pain they were in following their escape . "

"What did they tell you, then?" Han Sen asked, with a frown .

"They told us that when they entered, they saw something horrible in front of the palace there . That was where most of the men who entered died . Three made it out, as we have stated . "

Qing Le went on to say, "But the three men described what killed them differently . "

Han Sen didn't say a word .

Qing Le continued, "They all said they saw a bronze coffin inside the palace . On this coffin was said to reside a fox or a cat with a red body . They all spoke of this, so we can assume that part to be fairly sound . "

Han Sen thought to himself, "A nine-life cat, maybe?"

"Was the cat alive? Or was it something inanimate?" Han Sen asked . If it really was associated with Blood Legion, being a nine-life cat, there was every chance he could survive .

Han Sen was proficient with the Blood-Pulse Sutra, and furthermore, he was in possession of the pendant . Perhaps the shelter was warded to prevent those who weren't affiliated with Blood Legion from entering . If anything transpired on the inside, the least Han Sen could do was pretend he was a member .

"I am not sure . The details were sparse," Qing Le said, shaking his head in regret . "One of them said a beast emerged and slew everyone there . Another said there was the statue of a beast there, and that everybody simply started to die after they opened the coffin . The other person claimed that, after seeing a beast there, they all started killing themselves . "

"Could they all be hallucinating different things?" Han Sen asked .



"It is not out of the realm of possibilities, but then, why would they have died after escaping with their lives?" Yu Xuan said .

Han Sen nodded . There was no reason for the perfectly capable humans to die, if all they had experienced were hallucinations . There was something wrong with all this, there was no doubt about that .

"How did they die? Were they severely wounded or something?" Han Sen asked .


"They . . . had no wounds . Their blood crystallized, clogging the blood flow and preventing proper operation of their organs," Qing Le explained .

Han Sen did not say anything, but he most certainly believed the shelter had a connection to Blood Legion . If the red beast or creature there was the nine-life cat, Han Sen was starting to think he'd get the answers he had been waiting for . This was a big opportunity, and it would be silly to squander it .

Yu Xuan and Qing Le did not take Han Sen to Outer Sky Shelter, and they delivered him to that spooky shelter directly . When they arrived, Han Sen saw three humans . They were right, saying it had been difficult trying to assemble a new team .



There weren't many humans in the Fourth God's Sanctuary, and the ones who had been killed on the last mission had been reported as missing in the Alliance .

It was a spectacular feat, knowing they had managed to assemble nearly thirty humans for the last venture . But that also made it profoundly upsetting, learning what had occurred to each of them .

It was difficult finding more humans to replace those that were lost, and it'd take a lot of time for the shelters to recover that number .

"And what, please tell me, was the point in bringing a bronze geno core human on this expedition?" A female spirit scoffed, while looking at Han Sen with her nose upturned .

Yu Xuan was very polite to her, despite her tone . He said to her, "Sister, you know finding humans has been difficult for us all, after what last transpired . He is willing to try, so why not allow him?"

The female spirit smiled, then, and said, "Mister Li, your allies may not be the hardiest, but I pray you are successful . "

"I'll do what I can," Mister Li said, with a coarse voice not so different from toned grunts .

Han Sen looked at this Mister Li, who was a human, and observed him .

Han Sen was surprised, seeing a human garner such respect . The woman spirit seemed to hold him in high regard .

The man looked to be in his thirties, and he'd undoubtedly be an accomplished fighter . Just like Han Sen, he was hiding the true extent of his power .

The female spirit almost spoke like a student would, before their master .

Next to Mister Li were another two humans . One was old, and the other was young .

They were both very powerful, from the look of them, and it was highly likely they possessed gemstone geno cores .

The two of them stood next to Mister Li like bodyguards, though . Clearly, Han Sen would be the odd man out .

Han Sen thought to himself, "It looks like this Mister Li really is well-respected . He and the others must be the big guns of the spirits . They're at their wit's end, trying to secure this shelter, and it is highly unlikely they would call upon such strong humans unless this was their last and only shot . If these three really are that powerful, though, how come I've never heard of them before?"
