Hao Ren and the rest did not spend too much time in the outer city as the day of Cadeceus would end in eight hours. So after getting some information from the north and south, they sped up and arrived at the inner city of Cadessar.
Compared to the bustling but slightly chaotic outer city, the inner city of Cadessar was much more orderly. The buildings here were more beautiful and upscale. Most of the houses were multi-storey buildings built with white stones. Between the clean streets, there were glimmering magic towers scattered all over the place. Together, they supported the giant shield that covered the entire city. The inner city had a variety of functional facilities. Not only were there the municipal facilities to maintain the operation of the city, but also the various departments that were unique to the "Throat of the World". The largest mercenary registration office, the largest diplomatic building, and the largest library that was said to store all the knowledge of the world, the "Scholar's Palace".
The inner city was where the local residents of Cadessar lived. Although it was open to the public, the gates would be closed after nightfall.
"The little old man had a wish when he was alive. He hoped that his research manuscripts would be included in the library of Cadessar." Y'zaks looked at the golden roof of the "Scholar's Palace" in the distance and sighed. "Unfortunately, until his death, the spatial bubble zone theory was still classified as a fallacy. Even the knowledgeable Cadeceus had only recently begun to study the spatial vesicle model based on mathematics. Before that, their description of the spatial vesicle was based on fantasy and philosophy."
"Speaking of which, how did the world accept the spatial bubble zone and the big universe theory?" Hao Ren was a little curious.
Y'zaks let out a sarcastic smile. "Because I beat them up. They did not believe that the 'world' they knew was only a small part of the universe. So they had to deny the little old man's theory, which was to deny that the law of teleportation between the spatial vesicles could be calculated using mathematical formulas. Because this formula was the key to calculating the boundary of the bubble zone. This foolish adherence to tradition led them to lag far behind my army in the exploration of new planes. The exploration efficiency of all the countries in the human world combined was not as good as my empire. This was the secret of the demon king's army, and it was an open secret."
Hao Ren was stunned. "An open secret?"
"The manuscripts left by the great scholar were scattered in the human world. He had many students, and those students had already spread the formula of calculating the space vesicles to various countries," Lanina explained. "But for hundreds of years, no one believed those manuscripts. Even if a smart person occasionally guessed that the secret of the demon king's army was to master the method of calculating the space vesicles, he would immediately be denounced as a heretic, and even as a dangerous person who studied demon knowledge. The various races in the human world blindfolded themselves, tied their hands and feet, and were beaten by us for hundreds of years. It was only recently that they were enlightened. "
"And they're not completely enlightened." Y 'zaks laughed. "Don't people still believe that the power of the Demon King comes from the Divine Artifact? Knowledge is power. How can they not understand such a simple truth?"
Hao Ren was speechless. Of course, Y 'zaks had a point, but no normal person would believe that the power of the Demon King really came from exercising, eating, reading, and doing questions...
The group arrived at the destination of their trip. It was a large square building, with white walls and neatly stained glass windows. On the three-storey wall, there were various signs written in the languages of various races, most of them were the names of some offices, and occasionally there were small signs such as "XX Mercenary Agency", "XX Real Estate Agency", "XX Marriage Counseling Center". Hao Ren's eyes widened. "There are old office buildings in this world too …"
"This is the distribution hall." Lanina laughed. "At first, it was just a place for mercenaries to exchange information and information dealers to do business. But in a special place like Cadessar, it developed greatly and became such a messy information, personnel, and commission center. When the Allied Army was formed, they also focused on this facility. It was an important platform for the Seven Heroes to recruit brave warriors from all over the world. The most famous folk heroes of the Ten Years War, such as the Saintess of Light and the Dragon Slayer Gordon, all came from here. The information we are looking for can also be easily obtained here. Information from the Demonic Plane is freely circulated here, and the information dealers of all races in the human world are very righteous on this point. "
"You're very familiar with the human world." Hao Ren looked at Lanina in surprise.
"Don't forget what I used to do back then." Lanina wagged her tail proudly. This action made Lily, who was next to her, stared at her. "I heard that there's a smart person on Earth who knows that the world is short of three people. It's a pity that I can't compete with him …"
Hao Ren was sweating profusely. This saying of 'knowing that the world is lacking one without leaving home' seemed to have been spread by him …
"Lanina, don't talk too much after we go in. Just stay behind Hao Ren and pretend to be a low-level succubus. There's a mix of good and bad in there, as long as a sorcerer with a succubus doesn't purposely stand out, he won't attract any attention. But we also have to be careful of being targeted by the Vatican's secret agents." Y 'zaks said as he took the lead and walked towards the door of the distribution hall.
As soon as Hao Ren stepped into the building, he felt a wave of air rushing towards him — not any other kind of air wave, but a solid 'sound wave'!
The first floor of this three-storey building had been completely opened up. It was a super large hall supported by several rows of square pillars. The hall was scattered with small partitions that looked like counters or reception points, but most of the places were tables, chairs, and open spaces for people to interact freely. Countless adventurers from all over the world and merchants who came here to speculate made this place bustling with noise. Apart from these people from all walks of life, one could also see military personnel and uniformed staff.
The scene in front of Hao Ren really made him feel like the talent market on Earth. Of course, according to the noise and chaos, this place was a bit like the Tongxian Dog Market. Anyway, it was a noisy place with people coming and going, and it was easy to get lost walking alone.
Although Lanina knew very well about the human world, this was the first time she was visiting this place, and she needed to pay attention to her identity. So, as soon as she entered the door, she hid behind Hao Ren, trying to pretend to be an obedient domestic succubus. She just gently poked Hao Ren's back with the tip of her tail and said, "You should look for those in uniform first …"
At this time, Lily had already started to act on her own. As soon as she came to a lively place, she was very excited. She immediately ran to a young man who looked like a staff and said, "Hello, hello! We are mercenaries! Mercenaries going to work in the Demonic Plane! Ask about the news of the Demonic Plane, where can we go? "
Hao Ren quickly ran to Lily's side to prevent her from saying "all the good names are given by dogs". This unlucky name could be used in the Plane of Dreams, but it was useless here.
The uniformed man was startled by Lily and pointed to a place. Lily immediately dragged Hao Ren and ran there. Hao Ren was still thinking: walking a husky was really a technical job. Not only did she have to have the mentality of walking a dog, but she also had to be aware that she was being walked by a dog. This girl was really used to pulling people and running at 70 miles per hour …
Information about the size of the Demonic Plane was posted on a wall, arranged according to date. Hao Ren and the rest went to have a look and found that the human world really paid special attention to the Demonic Plane. Maybe it was because of the ten-year war, the information about the Demonic Plane was not only detailed but also unusually timely.
Where a new demon lord appeared, which demon lord was beheaded, which demonic plane had abnormal proliferation, which demonic plane suddenly opened … All these information were posted on the wall!
"Holy sh * t … How did they find this out?" Hao Ren looked at the information in amazement. He suddenly had an illusion that the entire Demonic Plane was exposed to the eyes of human beings.
"Most of them come from warlocks, and a few from scouts." Lanina was not surprised by this. She explained in a low voice, "Warlocks can summon demons, and they can also forcibly connect their consciousness to a demon in the Demonic Plane. Through this way, the human world can grasp the movements of the Demonic World. But the reverse is also true: high-grade demons often deceive warlocks and even directly place their doppelgangers in the top ranks of the human kingdom. And how to interfere with this kind of mutual spiritual exploration is a problem that all the races and demons in the human world will study. "
Hao Ren nodded and browsed the information that covered the wall with Y 'zaks. This information may not explain much to the races in the human world, but for Y 'zaks, it was very easy to see some deep and important information.
"It seems that Serathon is about to take over the second plane …" Y 'zaks touched his chin. He did not know where he got this information from. "The old guy in the second plane should have secretly reached a surrender agreement with Serathon, but I guess there will be a war soon. This is how it is between demons. The final form of all diplomatic mediation is to cut down the other party."
"But there is no news related to your 'last words'," Vivian looked at Y 'zaks. "It seems that the Allied Forces of the Holy See have blocked this information."
"Of course they will block it. No one wants this kind of world-shaking rumor to spread," Y 'zaks grinned. "The Seven Heroes used to be like brothers, but now I don't know if they feel awkward when they meet each other … Haha, life is unpredictable."
Lily curled her lips a little regretfully. "It's a wasted trip."
Hao Ren and the others were also very disappointed. But at this moment, suddenly a soldier in the Allied Forces' light armor came from the side and posted a new piece of information with the church seal on the wall.
Hao Ren looked at it and knew something was going to happen.
Lily read the words on it. "… a phantom of a suspected Helcrown once appeared over the Broken Plain of the Second Demonic Plane, and suspected remnants of the Demonic King's army were found around the Broken Plain …"
