Adol Canyon.
It was a very large canyon in the west of the royal capital.
The interior of the canyon was a world of Magical Beasts, and there were many types of Magical Beasts residing here. Moreover, their levels were generally very high. The deeper one went into the canyon, the higher the level of the Magical Beasts. It caused this place to become a treasure trove for numerous high level Adventurers, and it had also caused the deaths of many famous Adventurers. Thus, this place was also called the Canyon of Death.
It was said that there was a large source of mana in the deepest part of the canyon.
The Mana Source was occupied by a frightening Level 90 monster that had occupied it for a full 400 years. It was an existence equivalent to the Lord of this canyon. Due to the terrain here, even the kingdom had a hard time gnawing away at this hard bone. As a result, the frightening monster had been entrenched here all this time and had never left.
However, people were afraid of that terrifying monster, and it did not dare to leave the canyon. It had always been rather obedient, so the kingdom turned a blind eye to its existence, allowing it to continue occupying the large source of mana in the depths of the canyon.
For 400 years, countless adventurers had entered the canyon to hunt monsters or search for various treasures. Even now, the canyon was still a popular treasure land in the adventurer world. Many adventurers would come here to adventure every day.
As long as they did not enter the deepest part of the canyon, and chose to wander around the periphery or the inner area of the canyon according to their own strength, they would not alarm the terrifying monster.
Because of this, the Adol Canyon was considered a relatively lively place around the royal capital, and there were often all kinds of people visiting it.
It was only recently that the monsters around the royal capital began to show unnatural movements, and the monsters in the canyon began to become irritable and dangerous, causing many adventurers to encounter danger and even lose their lives. It was only then that it became the true Canyon of Death, and ordinary adventurers no longer dared to enter it without permission.
At this moment, layers of fences were set up at the entrance of the Adol Canyon, sealing the entrance.
In front of the fences were fully-armed knights.
They were the knights of the kingdom, and had been ordered by Rosie to seal off the area since yesterday. No one was allowed to enter or approach the canyon.
Beside the fences, there was even a camp set up by the knights. There were many tents inside, which told outsiders that this had become a temporary encampment of the knights.
Quite a few adventurer teams had arrived and were quarreling with the knights.
"Why don't you let us in?"
"Isn't this too unreasonable?"
"We've accepted the investigation mission issued by the guild, and we have permission to enter!"
"Let your leader come out!"
"We want to confront him face to face!"
Many adventurers grumbled indignantly at the Knights of Dusk.
Unfortunately, the knights were still blocking in front of the fences with indifferent expressions.
"This is an order from Her Highness Rosie."
"No one is allowed to enter the canyon."
"Leave now."
"Leave now."
The knights didn't care about their feelings at all and started to chase them away without saying a word.
This made the group of adventurers even angrier, and they began to push and shove the knights.
The scene was somewhat chaotic and was even filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Under such circumstances, Sean and Ai Yi appeared here.
"Are you sure Vivian and the others are in this canyon?"
Looking at the chaotic scene, Shien was stunned for a long time before asking Ai Yi faintly.
"… Anyway, the reaction of my magical power is in there. Believe it or not."
Ai Yi, on the other hand, looked extremely unhappy, as if she was still holding a grudge against Sean for messing up her hair.
"Alright." Sean ignored Ai Yi. He looked at the noisy canyon camp and murmured, "Looks like it's a little messy here."
"Then what do you plan to do?" Ai Yi said angrily. "Do you want to go back?"
Shien didn't answer and walked straight to the entrance of the canyon.
Of course, the knights wouldn't let him in.
"The kingdom has sealed off the area ahead. Go back, adventurer."
Two knights appeared in front of Sean, one on the left and one on the right. They even raised their swords and blocked Sean's way.
Shien didn't mind.
After all, he was the one who suggested sealing off the area around the royal capital.
Therefore, now that he was stopped, Shien wasn't angry.
However, Shien certainly wouldn't stop there.
"I was sent by Her Highness Rosie to investigate the canyon."
Sean took off the pendant that was a royal token from his neck and showed it to the knights.
"This …"
"Ugh …"
The faces of the knights, who were initially cold and merciless, immediately changed when they saw the Holy Sword pendant in Sean's hand.
The situation here had smoothly attracted the attention of the people in the surrounding area.
"That's the token of the royal family!"
"In other words, that person was really sent by Her Highness Rosie?"
"So young …"
"I feel like I've seen him somewhere …"
The knights looked at each other in dismay.
On the other hand, the adventurers surrounded them as if they had seen reinforcements.
"Lord Emissary!"
"Lord Emissary! Please judge for us! "
"Yes! Lord Emissary! "
"These people are going too far!"
The group of adventurers complained loudly one after another, leaving Sean dumbfounded.
The knights, on the other hand, were somewhat anxious and reprimanded the adventurers.
"Shut up!"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"How did we go too far?"
"Back off! Back off! "
The knights tried to disperse the adventurers.
However, the adventurers did not give in, and once again began to push and shove with the many knights.
The entire scene instantly became even more chaotic and noisy, just like a busy market.
"What's going on?"
Shien reacted, frowned, and looked at a knight.
The knight immediately panicked and hurriedly spoke.
"Lord Emissary, don't listen to their nonsense. They just wanted to break into the sealed Adol Canyon without permission and were stopped by us. We were stationed here under the orders of Her Highness Rosie Rosie. We are completely following the rules!"
As soon as the knight said this, he was immediately scolded by the adventurers.
"According to the rules?"
"You have the nerve to say that it's according to the rules?"
"Although Her Highness sent the knights to seal off this place, she has also stated to the Adventurers Guild that she hopes to get help from the guild to investigate the abnormal places around the Royal Capital!"
"The guild has already issued a commission to investigate the Adol Canyon, saying that as long as we accept the commission, we will be allowed to enter!"
"But you keep stopping us. What's the meaning of this?"
"That's right!"
The adventurers retorted one after another, causing the knights' expressions to turn ugly.
Seeing this, Shien understood.
It seemed that something had happened here.
