BXBX NOVEL Chapter 376: Missing
"Then you better forget it. She is not here now."
"What do you mean? She is in the outer region?"
"No, she is now on a mission. As for the details, I cannot tell. As you said, I don\'t really believe you yet."
\'As long as I leave this region, I should be able to contact MingYue. But is this fine?\' Alex wondered.
His progenitor connection, which worked fine despite the distance from MingYue, was now sealed. He doubted the reason was just because he was inside the core region.
There should be another reason, but even now, he hadn\'t found out what that was.
"Then I will request you arrange a meeting between me and that outsider. That is the very least I must do for Reina."
"No promise, but I will pass it to him. He will be the one to decide."
"Then this invader you fight, what species are they?"
"How do you not know? You are coming from outside. Based on my knowledge, this happened in many worlds."
"There are many species attacking my world, so I don\'t know which one you mean. Even the Dragari is one of them." Alex said in a cold voice.
He still harbored hatred for them, but he was not that stupid to blame the entire race for the actions of a small group.
When he came to the city, his focus was on his mother, Luca, but now that he had time to think about it, he realized the city\'s situation was almost the same as what happened in the past.
Screams of pain and anguish reverberated like a symphony throughout the city, mingling with the intense smell of burning flesh and blood.
The only difference was the position exchange; humans were the attackers, while Dragari was the victim.
At that point, who was right? Who was wrong? Alex didn\'t know anymore, but he knew what mattered now was meeting up with MingYue and the others.
"Then you already know the answer. It\'s not that different here. In the end, each race has its own factions, and some factions are just warmongers."
"So let me get this right. An invasion happened, and then your Ancestor somehow made a way to contain it all in one place.
Then he sealed it inside the planet\'s core, creating a whole new region where some of the strongest clans keep fighting battles to kill every being that gets out?"
"Yes, you get the gist."
"How could your Ancestor do this? Do you have the way?" Alex asked as his eyes lit up. If this could be done in his world, it would make things far better.
They could concentrate their defense on one area, cutting down casualties and giving time for the country to rebuild.
"I don\'t know. Many outsiders who negotiated with us also asked for this method, but the one who knew was our Ancestor. And before you ask, no, he is not alive.
In fact, almost all the main branch families were killed at that time. I am from the branch family and barely survived.
That is why we were very surprised when finding out Lady Feng Xue was still here."
"Can I see this place? The one you all defend?"
"I cannot give permission. Let\'s talk about this later. I need to report this to the higher-ups."
"One more question. Why did you come here? I don\'t believe it\'s just because of my presence."
"You don\'t need to worry. It will not impact you much, considering how you fought before."
"How I fought? Did you have some conflict with Shangxi Temple?" Alex asked.
"There are many things happening now, but it should not involve you as long as you quickly leave this place."
Alex tried to find out more information, but Ying Xue didn\'t tell him much. He also could not really trust all information from her. A cultivator at her level would easily be able to control their muscle movements.
This made his ability to guess if they were lying or not not accurate.
Meanwhile, in Dragari City, things were now more peaceful. The sun had already risen, as the embers of the flames were snuffed out. After their leader was killed, the others were quickly taken care of.
William succeeded in opening the portal, and from it, Solomon came out, bringing a squad of hunters. With the commotion, Isolde landed, and in anger, she started fighting with Solomon.
There were many things that didn\'t sit right with her. How could he never tell them that they had a portal to enter here?
Even though it wasn\'t activated, the least they could do was tell them the information.
"It\'s not that I didn\'t want to tell you, but if you knew, what do you think you all would do?"
"You need to ask!? Of course, we would push to this place without waiting this long!"
With the portal, this meant as long as they could open it, they would be able to get as many reinforcements as needed. This completely lowered the risk of the mission.
Before, they not only needed to plan how to enter but also how to leave this place.
"That is why we didn\'t tell you. If any of you died, it would be a big loss for the human race."
"Bullshit."
Solomon\'s lips twitched. He knew from experience the best way to stop her protest was by changing the topic, "Where are the others?"
"Do you think Luca will wait here for you to come? She, Alex, and the others entered through the portal.
It\'s only me and Heimdall here. As for where he was, good luck looking for him."
"How about Seraphine? Did you mean she went with them through the portal?"
"Seraphine?" Isolde\'s eyes then widened.
"Dammit, I forgot about her. I don\'t know where she is. Last time, she was with Luca. As for now…"
"So she also entered the portal?"
