As the energy of the Five Elite Zombies gradually dissipated from the gymnasium, Scarlett, Bollands, Sanguinar, and Gilbert could finally sense the presence of humans in front of them. When the energy of Han Shuo's soul dissipated, the four entered the gymnasium together.
Gilbert and the others were congratulating Little Skull just like the Five Elite Zombies. Scarlett was relieved to see that Little Skull had recovered. She quietly looked at him from the side.
Han Shuo was very gratified. He was very proud of the little skeleton's achievements. He believed that as long as the little skeleton was given enough time, his achievements would not stop there. His future strength was something to look forward to.
Outside the gymnasium, Han Shuo slowly stood up and put away the Cauldron of Myriad Demon that was used to stabilize the formations in the Pandemonium.
Just as he was about to return to the underground palace to ask about Little Skull's condition, Han Shuo's gaze pierced through the layers of mist in the Pandemonium and landed in the depths of the mountain range outside the Pandemonium.
There was a region deep in the mountain range where the energy of lightning was much denser than other regions. Ordinary people would not be able to detect it from such a distance. However, when Han Shuo retracted his consciousness from the gymnasium, he could clearly sense some changes in Pandemonium and Tanai.
The Pandemonium had the ability to gather all the elements in the surroundings. Therefore, the elemental energy around the Pandemonium would flow and converge towards the Pandemonium from all directions. However, Han Shuo's consciousness sensed that not only was the energy of lightning not affected by the Pandemonium, but it was also much denser than other regions.
It was obvious that this was abnormal.
With one thought, a wisp of Han Shuo's consciousness drifted out and stealthily infiltrated that area.
When his consciousness arrived, Han Shuo clearly sensed that a powerful lifeform was lurking there. That aura was very familiar to him – it was Salas!
With a cold groan, Han Shuo's body flickered as he passed through the layers of mist in the Pandemonium. Han Shuo knew the mountain ranges around the Pandemonium like the back of his hand. He had also set up a few traps so that Han Shuo would be able to go anywhere he wanted without anyone knowing.
Salas, ah, Salas, how dare you still peep in here. Today, I will make sure you never return! Han Shuo sneered in his mind. Back at the Misty Sea, his old enemy, Salas, had participated in the ambush. Now, the Godhunter Alliance that was about to arrive was also connected to Salas. If Han Shuo could kill Salas before the great war, it would be a great boon to the Fringe.
Now that Salas had reappeared in the Pandemonium, he must have the intention of dealing with the Pandemonium. Since Han Shuo had inadvertently discovered him, Han Shuo naturally wouldn't allow Salas to leave this place alive.
Salas, who was hiding in the dark, had released his divine soul to carefully observe the situation around the Pandemonium. He knew that the Pandemonium was full of hidden dangers and that Han Shuo was probably in the Pandemonium. Therefore, Salas was very cautious.
Suddenly, Salas felt as though a cold wind was blowing at his divine soul. Salas was startled and immediately felt a strong sense of danger. He instinctively wanted to retract his divine soul.
A wave of soul-shaking energy suddenly stabbed at Salas. In an instant, he felt as though his divine soul was being pierced by a cold light. The frigid energy nearly sealed his divine soul.
Salas's God Soul got hurt in just a blink of an eye. As he was flustered, he didn't think much and just retrieved his God Soul into his God Body. He hissed, "Who's there?"
"Hehe …" The cold laughter came from afar. It was so cold that it struck fear into one's heart.
Salas's face jolted and he said in a deep voice, "It really is you!" Surprisingly, this time, Salas didn't immediately retreat. Instead, he stayed where he was, as though he was waiting for Han Shuo's arrival.
"I didn't expect you to have the guts to come to the Pandemonium!" The sneer grew louder and louder. Han Shuo's figure suddenly appeared in front of Salas in a streak of eerie light. He said in a mocking voice, "Salas, do you really think that I took advantage of you after your battle with Ossora?"
While ridiculing Salas, the demon generals in Han Shuo's body spread out like tentacles to block Salas's path of retreat. Although Han Shuo did not know why Salas didn't flee immediately, Han Shuo wasn't going to hold back now that he had the opportunity to make Salas stay.
As he spoke, demon generals flew out from Han Shuo's body and filled up Salas's surroundings. Not a single one of those demon generals was a match for Salas, especially since Salas cultivated in the energy of lightning. Demon generals were a natural bane to Salas.
Han Shuo knew this but he still released his demon generals. Of course, it wasn't because he wanted to stop Salas with those demon generals. Han Shuo only wanted to use those demon generals to alter the space around him so that Salas couldn't use teleportation scrolls to escape. With Han Shuo around, Salas's lightning energy wouldn't be able to deal with the demon generals around him.
"I know it wasn't luck. Even if I didn't fight Ossora that time, I wouldn't be a match for you in a real battle!" Salas looked at Han Shuo and said in a solemn voice, "Back at the Misty Sea, I was even more certain that I wouldn't be a match for you!"
Han Shuo was rather surprised to hear those words. He looked at Salas with puzzled eyes. Han Shuo asked, "Then why did you come here alone?" Han Shuo put on a smile and said mockingly, "Did you really come here to die?"
"Brian, I didn't come here to make an enemy out of you!" Salas said with a straight face.
"Oh?" Han Shuo's interest was piqued. Since the area around Salas was affected by the demon generals' energy, it would be impossible for him to leave easily. "I have destroyed your Empyrean Peak and replaced your position in the Omphalos. You still don't want to make an enemy out of me?" Han Shuo couldn't help but laugh. He shook his head in disbelief and said, "That's interesting. Then tell me, why did you come here?"
"To work together!" Salas replied in a deep voice. After thinking for a moment, as though fearing that Han Shuo wouldn't believe him, he explained, "After all, I'm not a godhunter. There's no way I can truly communicate with them. Besides, those Hegemons of the godhunters aren't reliable. I can't trust them. I know Tyre and Logue very well. They are always scheming against others. If I were to find someone to work with, it wouldn't be them. "
"What about Wasis and Ossora? Those two have a decent reputation in the Fringe. Why don't you look for them? "Han Shuo asked curiously.
"I have fought Wasis and Ossora before. They can't even defeat me. How can I trust them?" Salas put on a disdainful face and groaned, "I, Salas, have lived in the Fringe for many years. I have my own principles. I don't give a damn about those who can't defeat me."
Han Shuo was even more amused by those words. He put on a big smile and said, "Alright then. Tell me, what do you want me to work with? What can you give me and what can I give you? "
"I can give you all the information I know about the Godhunter Alliance. I can lead those godhunters into your trap. As they aren't familiar with the Fringe, they will naturally listen to me," Salas explained his value to Han Shuo without the slightest hesitation.
After taking a short pause, Salas took a deep breath, looked at Han Shuo, and said, "I want to return to the Fringe. After this war, there will surely be casualties in the Fringe. It could be Tyre, Logue, Wasis, Ossora, or all of them. I just want you to help me and acknowledge my position. "
"That simple?" asked Han Shuo.
"That simple!" affirmed Salas.
"How can I trust you?" Han Shuo pondered for a moment and looked at Salas with a gloomy face.
If Salas was truly willing to help him, he would have a much greater chance of winning the war against the Godhunter Alliance. He might even be able to change the power structure of the Fringe. However, he and Salas used to be enemies. He didn't know if Salas was telling the truth or if Salas would play a trick on him at a crucial moment. This matter was too important. A small mistake could change the entire war. Therefore, Han Shuo dared not be careless.
"I don't know either. But if you agree to work with me, I can immediately give you some important information. It can help you understand the situation better and even give you the upper hand! " Salas seemed rather troubled. It seemed that he couldn't find a way to prove his sincerity. After all, he and Han Shuo were enemies.
After hesitating for a moment, Han Shuo nodded and said, "Alright, I'll work with you. Tell me what information you have."
It was unknown if Salas really trusted Han Shuo, but he wasn't afraid that Han Shuo would go back on his word. He said in a deep voice, "Dagmar knows that Han Hao has a Quintessence Shard and is preparing to deal with Han Hao at all costs. He has brought all the experts from the Death Dominion here and has been plotting for a long time.
"Also, I've discovered that Tyre and Dhaka from the Destruction Dominion have some sort of connection. Tyre was well aware of the godhunter's movements back then, and Dhaka seems to have his own way of doing things in the Fringe. If he didn't have connections in the Fringe, he wouldn't have been able to know so much.
"I have my own reasons for believing that Tyre and Dhaka are related, but I haven't confirmed it yet, so I can't tell you for now. You just have to have an idea of what's going on. Don't you think that the two of them look rather similar?"
Han Shuo was shocked. When he thought about it, he really did feel that Dhaka and Tyre looked rather similar. Not to mention that they both cultivated in the energy of destruction. After a moment of silence, Han Shuo said, "We can talk about it …"
Salas was delighted. He knew that Han Shuo's words meant that Han Shuo believed his sincerity. The two of them set up layers of barriers around them and held a secret discussion in this place. Only then did Salas sneak away in satisfaction.
