Answer to Chapter 3715
Candar's turbid vertical pupils lingered for a moment on the Poseidon's Trident in Fontaine's hand before slowly settling on Fang Heng. "Is this the master who repaired the Poseidon's Trident?"
Feng Tia nodded slightly and stepped aside to introduce him: "Yes, this is Fang Heng, my friend."
Fang Heng clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, Sea God."
"Hello, human, you are very young."
Kandar's massive body shifted slightly, and a dull grinding sound came from the depths of the palace. Its two vertical pupils scrutinized Fang Heng, and its words carried a hint of probing as it asked, "I once tried to repair the Trident of Poseidon, but unfortunately, I was always helpless against the divine corruption within it. In my opinion, without understanding sacred science, it is probably impossible to remove the divine corruption without destroying the Trident of Poseidon. Young man, I am very curious, what method did you use?"
Fang Heng said, "Kandal, the sea god, has keen eyesight and makes the most accurate judgments. I am indeed proficient in sacred science."
Kandar's vertical pupils suddenly contracted as he looked at Fontia beside him and said, "Sacred studies? He's related to the race of gods?"
“Yes,” Fontia said in a deep voice, “To be precise, he has a grudge against the race of gods.”
Kandar was silent for two seconds, then his cloudy pupils returned to Fang Heng.
"What grudge?"
"It's nothing serious," Fang Heng shrugged and said, "I had a conflict with them and killed a few of their people, and they've been holding a grudge ever since."
Kandar stared at Fang Heng for a long time, then let out a rough laugh that made the palace walls hum.
"Hahaha, good! You've got guts!"
Feng Tiya felt rather helpless as she listened, thinking to herself that this was nothing to brag about.
Feng Tia explained, "Uncle Kandar, Fang Heng is not only proficient in Sacred Studies, but also in Necromancy. As a result, he has attracted the attention of the God Clan, who have launched a campaign to hunt him down and retaliate against him."
"I see."
After the laughter subsided, Kandar looked at Fontia and said in a heavy tone, as if giving a warning: "However, Fontia, since you already know that this kid has a grudge against the gods, why are you still willing to keep him by your side? Do you know that you have offended a powerful being? If this matter reaches the ears of the gods, the entire deep sea may be plunged into disaster because of you?"
Feng Tia's expression changed slightly, and her fingers gripping the Poseidon's Halberd tightened a little as she said, "Uncle, this is the deep sea. The gods were once unable to do anything to us in the deep sea, and they can't do it now either!"
"Hahaha! Good! That's spirited!"
Kandar saw the shadow of her father in Fontia, which made him quite gratified. Then he raised his head and looked around at everyone in the hall. "Those who are not involved, please leave. Fontia and I have something to say."
"Yes."
The catfish guards and attendants standing on both sides withdrew one after another.
Feng Tia nodded slightly to the priests and their entourage following behind her.
"Go outside first, I have something to discuss with my uncle."
"Yes."
Soon, everyone left the main hall.
The palace doors closed.
Only Kandar, Fontia, and Fang Heng remained in the vast palace.
Candar slowly began to speak, “You must have already read the letters. This time, the people from Blackburg took the initiative to approach me, wanting to cooperate with me to explore the Abyss region together.”
Feng Tia frowned and asked, "The deep sea abyss has existed for many years, sealing away ancient monsters. I'm curious, what is there there that's worth exploring?"
"They want to find the sealing magic circle left from ancient times, saying they want to replicate it."
Candar slowly moved his body, the moss clinging to his dark blue scales swaying gently with the flow of water.
“At the deepest part of the abyss, there are multiple layers of alchemical magic arrays sealed in ancient times to suppress deep-sea monsters. However, the structure of these seals is itself an extremely complex magic array system, which also includes a part of the defense system. They are very interested in this magic array and have somehow obtained a part of the map of the deep-sea abyss area.”
"Blackburg told me that if I could successfully replicate this magic circle, he would be willing to share the results with me."
"I was also very interested in the magic circle beneath the abyss, so I agreed to their request and sent people to go with them."
Fang Heng pondered in his heart.
Judging from what Kandar said, Blackburg must have obtained part of the map of the Deep Sea Abyss region in advance, and entered the Deep Sea specifically to reach the magic circle of the Abyss.
Is it a guide for a game quest?
Fang Heng asked, "Did something happen later?"
“Not bad, I sent an elite team from the Sea of Nature to accompany the people from Blackburg into the Abyss region.” Kandar’s voice was low as he continued, “The initial advance went smoothly. Following the map, we did find the core area of the sealing magic circle. However, while exploring the ancient magic circle, for some reason, the array’s defensive mechanism was triggered.”
“The energy in the Abyss region fluctuated violently, and the internal space began to shake violently. Some of my people evacuated immediately, but the people of Blackburg and several elites from the Sea of Nature are still trapped in the depths of the Abyss.”
Fang Heng took a deep breath and asked, "Are they still alive?"
“Alive.” Kandar nodded. “They’re lucky. The sealing magic circle itself formed a relatively stable spatial barrier, so they’re not in immediate danger. But the spatial disorder is still intensifying, and I’m worried that the spatial barrier will be completely swallowed up sooner or later.”
“I have sent three groups of people to rescue them, but all of them failed. Because the magic circle was triggered, the spatial currents in the abyss area became unusually active. The giant abyss beasts that were sleeping in the abyss were also awakened and are extremely difficult to deal with. So only one team reached the depths of the abyss to confirm the situation of the trapped people. However, we do not know much about alchemy and have been unable to break through the unstable external spatial barrier.”
Fang Heng listened and nodded secretly.
It is not much different from what was said in the letter.
However, there is still a problem.
"Senior Kandal," Fang Heng said, cupping his fists in greeting, "You've dismissed all the irrelevant personnel. Is there anything else you want to tell us?"
"That's right."
Kandar's vertical pupils narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "This matter is actually related to the race of gods."
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat.
He had a vague feeling about it.
From the moment he received the letter, Kandar was testing their attitude toward the Gods.
"You all know what happened back then. We lost the war against the Gods. We reached an agreement with the Gods, with the ocean and land as the dividing line, and neither side would continue to spread their faith in the other's territory."
Kandar's voice grew even lower as he looked at Fontia and said, "As time goes by, the boundaries of this agreement are being tested time and again. I understand the temperament of the gods; they will not be content with just the land. Just as I expected, since your father's time, the gods have begun to plot and scheme for the underwater world."
