Chapter 521
Bell of Death Island was on another continent, and it would take about an hour to return to the Sanctuary . While a spaceship had to limit its speed within the atmosphere of a planet, it was still much faster than an airplane .
After Han Xiao settled all the little b*stards of Bell of Death Island into a guest room, he found Hannes and continued the previous conversation .
Hannes began to narrate what had happened after he went missing . After the end of the Germinal Organization battle, he had led the groups of archaeologists on a journey to seek out new secrets . Because Han Xiao had let the players complete a large number of missions, Hannes had managed to receive a fair amount of new information . He had then found a suspicious point in the large sea of record scrolls, and the evidence had actually pointed to the battle of a hundred nations on Planet Aquamarine .
In the past, Planet Aquamarine had housed over a hundred nations, and while there had been small skirmishes, they had been largely peaceful . They had all been curious about the universe, and Godora's appearance had brought about news of the universe . Knowing that the large number of nations on the planet would only slow down the development of the civilization and waste a great deal of resources, the state of the planet had begun to shift .
All the nations had taken a different stance, but none of them had been willing to give up their authority . Even if they knew that choosing to do so would result in a tragic future, before the tragedy truly arrived, they had all chosen to be short sighted . In the end, the friction between the nations had grown, and war had become the only way out .
As such, this theory had caused a world war to break out, and many nations had been eradicated in the war . Finally, only Six Nations had been left behind, and they had all begun to reorganize the resources of the entire planet . However, the negative effects of the war still had not worn off .
Hannes did not think that a single theory would result in a war between over a hundred nations . He was very certain that there must have been someone controlling the situation from behind the scenes . After much searching, he had finally made new progress in his search, but it had also resulted in a tragedy .
"The evidence led us to an underground cave in the Somar Desert . There was a large golden statue in the cave, and you will never believe what I saw . That golden statue actually began moving and launched attacks on us . Its strength was unrivaled, and our attacks weren't able to harm it in the slightest . "
"And then?" Han Xiao asked .
"We fought a long battle with the statue, but it was indestructible and could even shoot lasers . My comrades all died in battle . The war didn't reap their lives, but they actually died there…"
Hannes grit his teeth and continued, "I was also severely injured and thought that my death was certain . However, the statue suddenly stopped, and the entire cave suddenly turned golden . Only then did I find out that the rocky walls of the cave were actually a disguise . On the golden wall was an oval shaped container the size of a human being . A Godoran then walked out from the container and squatting in front of me . He asked how I found the place . "
"Continue, I'm listening . "
"At that time, my breathing was weak, and thus, the other party was extremely close to me . I acted as though I was severely injured and tried to communicate with him . I asked him who he was and why a Godoran would be left behind on Planet Aquamarine . However, he seemed to disdain giving me an answer and wanted to stand up and leave . The statue then moved again, and it was about to raise its arms up to smash me to death .
"I didn't have a choice . I could only take a chance and attack with all of my strength . However, I never expected that the Godoran would not dodge my attack and was killed by a single fist . He was actually an ordinary person . After he died, the statue stopped moving, and I fainted from my injuries .
"After who knows how long, a special agent squad arrived at the cave and found me on the verge of death . They seemed to have found the cave by following my tracks, and everything inside the cave was seized by them . Because the matter involved Godora, I was sent to Bell of Death Island for interrogation . "
"Why do you think that Godora is the one behind the scenes with just this information?"
"It isn't a wild guess, of course . Prison is the best place to think, and I have been connecting the dots in my mind . Furthermore, there must be a reason for a Godoran staying behind on Planet Aquamarine . I suspect that while Godora isn't interfering with Planet Aquamarine on the surface, they have always been monitoring us and interrupting the progress of our civilization . While I do not understand Godora, I know that only benefits are absolute, and they definitely have some reasons to do so . "
"It may not be as you think . A single person cannot represent an entire civilization . Besides, Godora also have another golden skinned enemy force," Han Xiao said after pondering for a moment . "I have a pretty good relationship with Godora, and I may be able to find some people to investigate this matter . Can you give me any clues?"
"I remember the appearance of that Godoran and everything in the cave . " Hannes took out a few pieces of paper and began drawing .
The appearance of the Godoran was very clear, and Han Xiao took a picture of it with his communicator . With his relationship with Godora, it was extremely simple for him to ask them to check on a portrait .
He then looked at Hannes' sketch of the statue . It was the shape of a humans but had four arms and no facial features . Instead, it had two lines of three holes where one's eyes would be, which were glowing with a golden light .
Upon seeing the drawing, Han Xiao let out a gasp .
"This is a type of Mojo Puppet, a product of Godora's mages . It is easily purchased, but the price to forge it is pretty expensive . If you aren't a mage, you can only destroy the puppet by smashing the statue . With your strength, it would be extremely difficult for you to smash a combat machine of the galactic level . This Mojo Puppet should be the Godoran's guard, and the place where the Godoran was staying should be a life sustaining chamber . It is likely that the chamber was connected to the web . If I have time, I will ask the Six Nations if I can study that item . "
Hannes grabbed onto Han Xiao's hands and pleaded, "This is the only clue, and it will only be of use in your hands . I can only count on you . I no longer have anything to repay you with and can only hope that you will help me based on our old friendship . I really want to get to the bottom of this mystery and find out who is the source of the calamity!"
A notification popped up on Han Xiao's interface indicating that the third phase of [New Era—Origin] was completed . The mission gave him a few million experience points, and he successfully entered into the next phase . The interface also showed that this was the last phase of the mission, and there was only a single mission requirement, which was to find the truth . However, the only clue that they had was the Godoran's portrait .
No wonder this is a hidden Grade A mission . It's linked to two different versions, and one would have to be on friendly terms with Godora to follow up on this clue . Thus, this mission can only be continued in Version 2 . 0 . Han Xiao's eyes glowed .
The reward was naturally plentiful, giving him a few million experience points . However, the Great Mechanic Han had the large market of the players and needed experience the least .
