"Are you saying that the Chu He I met in Netherworld City is a fake?" Zhou Wen said after some thought.
"No, it's the opposite. I think the Chu He who went to Zhuolu is an impostor," An Sheng said with certainty. "From the information we obtained, everything about the Chu He who went to Zhuolu is perfect, but this makes me feel that something's amiss."
After a pause, An Sheng continued, "According to my investigations, Professor Chu He had indeed studied the Taklamakan in the past. In the beginning, he had indeed rejected the expedition team's invitation, but for some unknown reason, he later agreed to the invitation. From then on, he went to Zhuolu, but during his time in Zhuolu, he never contacted his family. This makes me feel that something's amiss. "
"In other words, someone really did something to it?" Zhou Wen asked.
"I can't be sure yet. If there's really someone behind it, then this faction must be no trifling matter. The other party did it too cleanly. There was no problem at all. If you hadn't encountered the already dead Chu He in Netherworld City, I'm afraid no one would have thought that the Chu He who went to Zhuolu was actually an impostor, "An Sheng said.
"How are Chu He's wife and daughter?" Zhou Wen asked.
"After we investigated, their situation became very dangerous. To ensure their safety, I've already brought them back," An Sheng said.
From An Sheng's tone, Zhou Wen knew that An Sheng must have used some extreme means.
"If possible, take good care of them. As long as it's not an unreasonable request, try your best to satisfy them. I'll be responsible for all the expenses," Zhou Wen said.
"Don't worry. They have already been brought into the manor by Madam. Madam values them very much," An Sheng said.
"That's good." Zhou Wen knew that Ouyang Lan was as concerned about the former principal as he was. Since Chu He's wife and daughter were with her, Ouyang Lan definitely wouldn't let anything happen to them.
After ending the call with An Sheng, Zhou Wen thought about what else he could do.
I'm far inferior to An Sheng in investigating these matters. It's useless even if I go. If someone really did something behind the scenes, they must be quite powerful to be able to do it so flawlessly. Even if I really investigate the truth, I'll need powerful forces to resolve the problem. I'll raise my strength first. Zhou Wen felt that what he needed to do the most now was to make himself stronger.
Ding! After grinding the Metalwork Temple dungeon, another Golden Battle God Halberd dropped.
"Just how easy is it to get this thing? This is already the fourth round. "Zhou Wen was somewhat speechless.
However, having an additional Mythical Companion Beast was also an increase in combat strength. If he really obtained hundreds of Golden Battle God Halberds, he might be able to flatten the six families of the Federation with just the Golden Battle God Halberd.
Just as he was about to continue grinding, his phone rang. He opened it and saw that it was from The Thearch.
"Let's make a deal. Are you interested?"
"What deal?" Zhou Wen replied.
"I can let you obtain a Companion Beast. That Companion Beast can help you defeat Primordial Sword Immortal and Count of the Wind, but in exchange, you have to give the divine fruit to me after you obtain it." The Thearch sent another message.
"What other benefits do I get if I give you the divine fruit?" Zhou Wen asked.
"You obtained a Companion Beast that can help you defeat Primordial Sword Immortal. Isn't that enough?" The Thearch said.
"What kind of Companion Beast is it?" Zhou Wen asked.
"Come to Chess Mountain. You'll naturally know when you get it," The Thearch said.
"Don't tell me you want me to enter Deer Terrace Pavilion again?" Zhou Wen deliberately sent a message in an unwilling tone.
In fact, Zhou Wen also wanted to enter Deer Terrace Pavilion. In-game, he could only enter the ancient building on Deer Terrace Pavilion, but he couldn't enter the platform below.
Now, Zhou Wen really wanted to know what other way to enter Deer Terrace Pavilion other than the gap in reality.
"How can you obtain benefits if you don't enter Deer Terrace Pavilion?" The Thearch said.
"It's too disgusting to enter Deer Terrace Pavilion from underwater. Is there no other way to enter?" Zhou Wen wanted to figure out the way to enter Deer Terrace Pavilion so that he didn't have to trade with The Thearch.
To his surprise, The Thearch was very tight-lipped. She only replied, "Don't worry. I'll let you enter Deer Terrace Pavilion easily this time."
Zhou Wen asked a few more questions, but The Thearch didn't say anything. She only said that he would know when the time came.
Zhou Wen was somewhat hesitant. He naturally wanted a Companion Beast that could defeat Primordial Sword Immortal, but he was somewhat unwilling to take the risk in Deer Terrace Pavilion in reality.
The Thearch was just too mysterious. Zhou Wen didn't wish to have too much contact with her.
Forget it, I'm not going. Even without The Thearch's Companion Beast, I still have a chance of defeating Primordial Sword Immortal. Zhou Wen had carefully studied the battle between Count of the Wind and Primordial Sword Immortal.
Tyrant Behemoth still had a chance of defeating Primordial Sword Immortal, but the premise was that Primordial Sword Immortal's Wheel of Destiny couldn't kill Tyrant Behemoth.
As he was pondering, he suddenly felt a fluctuation in the chaos space.
Could it be that Explosive Fiend Man has completed its evolution? Zhou Wen hurriedly checked the chaos space.
He realized that Explosive Fiend Man hadn't completed its evolution. It was still in an egg state.
That fluctuation was actually coming from the metal walnut.
The little beast had been chewing on the metal walnut. After so long, it left a deep bite mark on the metal walnut. From the spot it had bitten through, the metal walnut seemed to have been bitten through. A crack as thick as a strand of hair had appeared, revealing a smear of white under the crack.
As for the fluctuations Zhou Wen felt, they came from the metal walnut. The fluctuations seemed to be at the level of consciousness. Zhou Wen actually felt that it was seeking help from him.
Could it be that there's a dimensional creature in this metal walnut? Zhou Wen took the metal walnut out of the chaos space.
The little beast relentlessly lay on the metal walnut and gnawed at it. It looked like it wouldn't stop until it ate through the metal walnut.
Zhou Wen used his hand to pull it, but its claws gripped the metal walnut tightly, refusing to let go.
Zhou Wen had no choice but to knock it unconscious. After the little beast fainted, its tiny claws refused to let go. Zhou Wen had no choice but to allow it to grab the metal walnut as he reached out to touch the crack that had been bitten open by the little beast.
A white substance was revealed from the crack. Zhou Wen touched it and immediately felt his Essence Energy flow into the metal walnut. The feeling was similar to hatching a Companion Egg.
The thing inside the metal walnut is actually a Companion Egg? Zhou Wen was alarmed as he allowed the metal walnut to absorb his Essence Energy.
