Arcane Journey

"Oh?" Hearing this, Brian looked at the female elf Hathaway curiously, wondering where his speculation was so wrong.

He asked curiously, "Then please tell us, Ms. Hathaway, where exactly is your guess wrong?"

This time, Hathaway did not hide anything and said directly, "Demogorgon did not cooperate with Mecanthus."

"No cooperation?" Brian frowned slightly. "No cooperation, how exactly was Ms. Jinxin tricked?"

Facing Brian's question, Hathaway hesitated for a moment, and it seemed that she obviously didn't want to say anything.

However, she finally told the truth, "That's because Ms. Goldenheart is too confident. In addition to the Succubus Queen Mecanthust, the other side of Demogorgon also cooperated with her to fight against the Illusion Demon King."

Hearing this, Brian suddenly looked enlightened. He had never expected there were so many twists and turns.

He probably already understood the process.

Apparently, this Lady of Golden Heart first contacted the Succubus Queen, and then through this relationship, she came into contact with Demogorgon, who wanted to get rid of his dual consciousness, merge the two into one, and become a true demon prince.

There may be deeper reasons why Demogorgon was persuaded by Ms. Golden Heart.

Although Brian was not quite sure, he could still roughly guess that Demogorgon's purpose was nothing more than to use the power of the elven pantheon to completely kill his other side.

The result is predictable. In the end, the Succubus Queen Mecanthus got a great advantage and trapped Lady Goldheart, the Illusion Lord, and Demogorgon in a world called Oss.

However, what surprised Brian a little was that both Demogorgon and the Illusion Lord escaped from the Oss world, but Lady Goldenheart did not run away.

Is this really because she is a weakling?
Brian didn't think so and felt that there might be deeper reasons behind it.

"You guessed right." Hathaway spied on Brian's thoughts, looked at him with a little surprise, and said slowly, "Everything is just as you speculated. The reason why Ms. Golden Heart did not leave the Os World is indeed because she came up with a bigger plan after being plotted against by the Succubus Queen."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "As for what this plan is, I'm afraid you can only find out after you actually go to the Oss World."

"You mean, for this plan, I not only need to go to the Abyss, but also find a way to go to the Oss world and get in touch with Ms. Golden Heart." Brian frowned slightly and looked at Hathaway.

"Yes." Hathaway nodded slightly and said to him, "Only in this way can the next plan be carried out better."

"Then how should I go to the Os World?" Brian asked again, "From what you said, this Os World seems to be controlled by the Succubus Queen. It may not be that easy to get in. You can't ask me to discuss this with Mecanthust, right?"

"If Mr. Brian can really discuss this with the Succubus Queen, that would be great." Hathaway chuckled when Brian said this. It was unclear whether her words were meant to be a joke or a feeling that it was necessary.

However, after noticing Brian's unhappy expression, she stopped talking and changed the subject, "This is what you need to do next. Although the Aos world has been sealed by the Succubus Queen, there are ways to enter it. Otherwise, Demogorgon and the Illusion Demon King would not have escaped from it, so..." Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Brian, "So, if you want to enter this world, you still have to start with Demogorgon and the Illusion Demon King, is that right?"

If this is true, it would save him a lot of effort.

Because Brian's next goal, in addition to quelling the unrest in the Underdark, is mainly to deal with the Illusion Lord and Demogorgon's other side of madness.

"That's roughly the situation. Ms. Jinxin's future fate will now be in the hands of Mr. Brian." Hathaway shrugged and said to Brian.

Although her words meant to ask Brian for help, Brian could clearly feel that there was no intention of asking him for help in her tone.

The tone and look were like a superior leader ordering subordinates to do something.

So, this made Brian very unhappy.

He glanced at Hathaway and snorted, "Miss Hathaway, what you said is a bit serious. After all, I am just a mortal in the material world. Even if I have the ability to cast spells in the legendary realm, I am still not good enough in front of the demon lord of the abyss."

Brian pretended to be helpless and continued:
"So, if you say that Ms. Jinxin's future is in my hands, then I have to correct you. Regarding this matter, I can only say that I will do my best, but whether it will succeed or not is really beyond my control. If I encounter a situation that endangers my life, I will naturally choose to retreat without hesitation.

After all, your Lord God Corellon Larethian was so thoughtful that he prepared a way out for me in advance. I must make the most of this advantage and not waste this "good intention" in vain. "

Hearing Brian's words, Hathaway's smile disappeared quietly like morning mist. She suddenly widened her eyes, her eyes full of disbelief. In an almost unbelievable tone, she whispered:
"You mean... you mean, He gave you the 'Starry Corridor' that connects to the Kingdom of Arvandor? Is this true?"

"That's right." Seeing Hathaway so surprised, Brian was also a little surprised. It was just an ability of instant teleportation. Was it necessary to do this?

From this we can see that this 'Starry Sky Corridor' is probably not as simple as imagined.

This made him look forward to it. If he really used this ability, what kind of miraculous effect could be produced while saving his life?

"I actually gave it to you..." After getting the confirmed answer, Hathaway looked at Brian with a complicated expression and murmured to herself, with indescribable complex emotions in her voice.

Brian was also a little surprised to see such a strange expression. He couldn't help but ask, "Is there any problem, Miss Hathaway?"

"Nothing." Hathaway obviously didn't want to say more and shook her head quickly.

Then, she calmed down, looked at Brian meaningfully, and said with a smile, "In that case, I also have a very special gift for you." (End of this chapter)
