Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube

Chapter 1774 - 1194: I’ll Do My Best

In the Akasha Continent, within a space unknown to others.

This place is not vast but exceedingly dark.

In the center of the space is a round table, creating the ambiance of a secret underground meeting room, making the crystal seats around it seem chillingly cold.

These seats are entirely made of crystal, evidently not ordinary seats but magic artifacts crafted from large magical crystals.

The seven crystal seats quietly stand here, hidden in darkness, as if witnessing the passage of time, and have not been visited for a long time.

"Zheng!"

Suddenly, several of the crystal seats lit up simultaneously.

A total of five crystal seats lit up, allowing five shadowy figures to appear on them in succession, breaking the darkness and the chilling silence of the space.

At this moment, the five people present here, or rather, their projections using magical items, were undoubtedly the five envoys of the Holy Temple.

Sitting in the foremost seat was the leader of the Holy Temple — "Heaven Hunt".

"Have you returned?"

As a steady voice sounded, the "Heaven Hunt" at the head slightly turned its head, looking towards the fiery red figure on the right.

"It seems the mission was successfully completed, ’Fire Princess’."

At these words, the "Fire Princess" sitting in the first position on the right raised her head.

"I am afraid to disappoint you." The alluring and seductive woman said heavily: "The mission is only half completed. We only destroyed the transport magic array leading out from the Hidden Land there; we couldn’t find the item you mentioned."

The "Heaven Hunt" immediately frowned.

"You didn’t find it?"

The "Giant Soldier" sitting in the first position on the left seemed particularly concerned about this matter and urgently spoke upon hearing the "Fire Princess".

"How could you not find it? According to the intelligence provided by the leader, that item should indeed be sealed in the deepest part of the temple."

He still planned to study the treasure that even the "Heaven Hunt" was extremely concerned about, and now they couldn’t find it?

This not only made the "Giant Soldier" feel disappointed, but also filled him with dissatisfaction.

"Indeed not, old man."

The "Serpent Ba" next to the "Giant Soldier" spoke in a low voice, saying this sentence.

"As soon as the three of us infiltrated the temple, we searched at the fastest speed, and even used the secret detection treasure you gave us beforehand. But when we reached the suspected sealed place, it was already empty."

Hearing this, not only the "Giant Soldier", but even the "Heaven Hunt" couldn’t help but react slightly.

"Empty?"

The "Giant Soldier" was very astonished.

"Correct."

The one who confirmed was none other than the "Tyrant" who acted alongside "Fire Princess" and "Serpent Ba".

"The seal had already been opened, and there was only a statue inside. Other than that, there was nothing else."

"We brought the statue out, but not only did we find nothing on it, but we also destroyed it effortlessly."

"That thing was definitely not a treasure. We returned empty-handed, having only completed the task of destroying the transport magic array."

The "Tyrant" didn’t tell "Heaven Hunt" and "Giant Soldier" that he destroyed the statue because he lost his temper at the time.

In limited time, the three of them turned the entire interior of the artificial mountain upside down, only finding that seemingly ordinary statue to bring out, and nothing else.

Because they couldn’t find something that seemed to be a treasure, a frustrated "Tyrant" attacked the statue.

As a result, the statue was destroyed.

This also proved that the statue, the only thing that could be brought out from the sealed place, was not the treasure the "Heaven Hunt" instructed them to find.

Otherwise, how could it have been destroyed so easily?

Though the "Giant Soldier" was unhappy and disappointed, he also noticed the key point.

"Are you saying, before you found the treasure, the place sealing it had already been opened by someone?"

The "Giant Soldier" was a bit surprised and suspicious.

"Indeed so." "Fire Princess" spoke indifferently, saying: "Not only was there no trace of the seal, but the entrance was wide open, clearly already opened by someone, and the contents inside were taken away."

Everyone immediately fell into silence.

"Was it Reiger Brillhaut?"

The "Heaven Hunt" suddenly spoke.

Everyone present understood the implication of his words.

"...It should be him." After a moment of silence, "Fire Princess" said: "He entered the Hidden Land before us and arrived at the temple. When we invaded the temple, the seal was opened, and what was inside was gone."

"Aside from him taking it, there’s no other possibility."

As soon as "Fire Princess" finished speaking, the "Giant Soldier" burst out with frustration.

"So you just scurried back?" "Giant Soldier" said loudly with complaint: "Since the item is with that damned guy, why didn’t you just grab it back!"

"You are the envoys of the Holy Temple, each of you is a Sword Saint enough to stand at the top in a great nation. Ordinary Sword Saints aren’t even your match; surely you can handle a brat who hasn’t been famous for even a year?"

"Even if a one-on-one doesn’t work, you could have teamed up, and used the bespoke secret treasures and sacred items I prepared for you!"
