Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1573 - 1093: Must I Return Empty-Handed?

The combat power of a level 69 Guardian Angel is not strong, at best comparable to Lv.4, and in this place filled with terrifying abyssal creatures everywhere, it is undoubtedly as weak as an ant.

However, as an angel-type monster dedicated to defense, Guardian Angels not only possess two special abilities but also have extremely impressive magical defensive power, which should be enough to serve as a meat shield.

If they had used these shields to explore the path earlier, then Melo, Naisa, and Beluti might not have needed to die once.

Thus, even though knowing that these monsters summoned by rank magic can no longer meet his needs, and their strength is far inferior to a single [Ten Shadow Techniques] Jade Dog, Reiger still summoned them at this time, letting them explore the path ahead for him.

However, it seemed that no other abyssal creature appeared afterward, and the journey felt incredibly peaceful.

Although the previous walk in the front hall was peaceful as well, without encountering any enemies, this time it felt different, lacking the sense of impending unspeakable horror. Instead, it gave a feeling of tranquility as if things had already calmed down, making Reiger start to think that there might be no more danger here.

Of course, when it was time for the monsters to explore the path, he still let them lead the way, remaining vigilant.

Better safe than sorry; abyssal creatures not only possess strong power but also have various bizarre abilities that are hard to defend against. Even Reiger wouldn’t want to encounter danger due to a minor oversight.

Therefore, it’s better to be cautious to sail for thousands of years without mishap.

Embracing this mindset, Reiger finished exploring the central hall, passed through the spacious corridor connecting the outside of the central hall to the back hall, and entered the targeted back hall without encountering further danger.

"Could it be true that there are no other abyssal creatures?"

Reiger decided to proceed cautiously, summoning a large number of monsters with exploration abilities and having them scatter to start exploring the entire back hall.

This exploration took a whole two hours.

There was no choice; the back hall was too large. As the fixed residence of past saviors, it was almost the largest and most luxurious place in the entire Great Saint Palace, even though it has fallen into ruin today, its area remains unchanged.

Exploring such a place requires a significant amount of time even with the help of numerous monsters.

Luckily, the result was positive. The monsters encountered no danger, found no abyssal creatures, and even helped Reiger figure out the terrain, letting him get a rough understanding of its structure and distribution pattern.

Thus, Reiger left the monsters to continue the watch while he walked into the back hall.

He first went to the rooms of past saviors.

There one could vaguely see how luxurious and extravagant it was back in the day.

Reiger even found a small treasure house there, filled with various gold and silver jewels, and some gems, imbued with magic power due to prolonged years, were unfortunately equally contaminated by the omnipresent Abyssal Aura in such an environment, becoming extremely dangerous, spreading lethal curses that one wouldn’t even want to touch.

Afterward, Reiger went to several relatively important places, such as the study room, bedroom, and item storage room, only to find them heavily ruined, almost beyond recognition.

Evidently, during that battle, this place also became an object of abyssal assault, turned into a battlefield for many, caught in the crossfire of fierce combat.

The reason the entire Great Saint Palace didn’t get destroyed was likely due to the magical defensive measures and the presence of barriers back then; otherwise, in a battle capable of determining the fate of a nation or even a realm, this battlefield would have undoubtedly collapsed, unable to barely retain its shape until eleven thousand years later.

However...

"There’s nothing anywhere, possibly missing clues..."

Coming out of a broken room, Reiger furrowed his brows tightly.

He searched numerous places, but found nothing.

Or perhaps due to some places being thoroughly destroyed, even if there was something originally, it is no longer there now.

This left Reiger very disappointed. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Do I have to return empty-handed?"

This is not impossible, in fact, it is very likely.

After all, Reiger was never certain whether this place held clues about the Reinnaier lineage and the destruction of ancient magic civilization, just speculating that the two events coincide with the abyssal invasion in this world, leading to a guess about a possible connection, hence the desire to find clues here.

Since it’s a speculation, it may fall short.

All of this was merely Reiger’s own conjecture, without current evidence proving a definite connection between the two.

If... his guess was wrong from the beginning?

Then this trip was in vain?

"No, it’s definitely not wrong."

After some thought, Reiger shook his head, denying this notion.

"Eleven thousand years ago, the abyss invaded this empire, forcing the last master of the Holy Sword Moslo to retreat from the source, return to the Akasha continent, and choose the next successor to support here and help the empire repel the abyss."
