Chapter 191: Chapter 143: Believe It or Not, He Really Has It!

"...The resistance of the Gray Dwarf Priests to spiritual energy is extremely high and they are the core of the Gray Dwarves Clan in fighting against the Mind Flayers... Many Gray Dwarf Priests have even mastered a significant amount of spiritual magic..."

Because Liya was still searching for books related to Mind Flayers in the warehouse, Rein started reading the introduction of the Dark Furnace Clan first.

About two hours later.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Rein’s calm was interrupted by Sulfur Vine’s somewhat urgent knocking.

"Mr. Rein, Mr. Benest has returned."

As soon as he opened the door, Rein saw Benest, looking tired, standing behind the Druid Maiden.

However, Miss Reya was nowhere to be seen.

"Please come in, Mr. Benest."

"Mr. Rein, Miss Reya stayed with Lord Lunflier to accompany and care for Baron Olsen, so she didn’t come back with me this time."

Minutes later, Elise and Laisa, who heard the news, also arrived in the room.

"Mr. Benest, how is Baron Olsen’s condition?"

"Um... not very good."

Benest took a sip of water to moisten his slightly chapped lips, shook his head, and said.

"However... it’s not completely hopeless, it’s just very difficult."

"Oh?"

The few people, including Rein, exchanged glances, looking puzzled.

"It’s like this: although Lord Lunflier has researched the larvae of the Mind Flayer, there is still no good method to remove them."

"What can currently be done is to delay the time the larvae take effect, from devouring the consciousness on the third day, to thirty days later."

Rein nodded and said, "So, this means we’ve gained ten times the time."

"Yes, and as far as Lord Lunflier knows, neither legendary mages nor elves and dwarves have any effective methods for dealing with Mind Flayer larvae."

"The only known method is to use the breeding chamber created by the Mind Flayer to smoothly extract the larvae without causing any harm to the host."

"Then... do we have to go to Deadwater Valley to find the breeding chamber?" Elise couldn’t help but think of something, her eyes widened, and she blurted out.

Benest gave Elise an approving look and continued, "Yes, but it’s not that simple."

"As an extraordinary strong person, just as Lord Lunflier steps into the depths of Deadwater Valley, he will be detected by the Mind Flayer."

"Finding the breeding chamber then becomes almost impossible."

"Even if Lord Lunflier could defeat the Mind Flayer, it would immediately escape, and everything, including the breeding chamber, would be taken or destroyed."

"Moreover, the Mind Flayer in Deadwater Valley is extraordinarily powerful; I suspect it’s an extraordinary level Mind Flayer."

"What should we do then?" Laisa asked, frowning.

If even extraordinary strong people couldn’t infiltrate, then they certainly wouldn’t be able to handle it.

At this moment, as Benest took out a thumb-thick green prism crystal from his pouch, he said:

"Since there are currently dozens of Black Iron level Adventurer Squads engaging with the Deadwater Wild Boar People, it can be confirmed that the Mind Flayer won’t pay attention to those below extraordinary strong ones."

"This is a special positioning crystal."

"If we’re able to find the breeding chamber’s location, and crush the positioning crystal, Lord Lunflier will immediately teleport there and place Baron Olsen into the breeding chamber to rid the larvae."

"The entire process would take less than half a minute, even if the Mind Flayer reacts, by the time it arrives, it should be completed."

"So Mr. Benest, you mean we should stealthily infiltrate, find the breeding chamber’s location, and then immediately crush the positioning crystal?"

"Yes, but there are significant risks involved. The Mind Flayer has many followers, including War Lizardmen, Stone-blind Barbarian Race, Marsh Bear People, and Ogres."

"But the toughest to deal with isn’t them; it’s the Brain-Eating Monsters who can also manipulate spiritual energy and detect invisibility!"

When mentioning Brain-Eating Monsters, a hint of fear flashed across Benest’s face.

"Brain-Eating Monster?"

Rein immediately recalled the information he had just looked at about Mind Flayers, which included a dedicated introduction to Brain-Eating Monsters.

The Brain-Eating Monsters have odd appearances, nearly nauseating.

They appear to be a human-like brain with four wolf-like claws underneath.

This creature, which seemingly couldn’t appear naturally, is discomforting at first sight.

According to Legendary Mages’ verification, these are indeed not natural creatures but are special creations of the Mind Flayer.

Their challenge level ranges from 2 to 6, depending on how many brains they’ve devoured.

They can detect the brainwaves of intelligent beings, making invisibility or visibility meaningless to them.

"Hmm, a considerable number of Brain-Eating Monsters guard the core area of the Mind Flayer, with the breeding chamber inside, which is the main problem point of this situation."

"Back then, if I hadn’t reacted quickly, I would’ve almost been surrounded by three Brain-Eating Monsters."

Just from Benest’s description, you could tell how dangerous it was at the time.

This left Elise and Laisa exchanging worried glances.

Because no matter how you looked at it, even if they did their best, the odds of success seemed very low.

Leaving it to someone else, or even commissioning a guild for the task, seemed unfeasible.

The team with Rein and Benest already surpassed most Black Iron Level Adventurer Squads in strength.

They didn’t think the teams that would take up the task would be stronger either.

Moreover, for an Adventurer Squad failing a task just means loss of points, but the consequence here would mean—Miss Reya’s father, Baron Olsen, would be gone forever.

The room fell into silence.

Then Benest sighed and lamented:

"If only we had the talents of the Gis Yankees or Gray Dwarves."

"It is said that they were enslaved by Mind Flayers for over ten thousand years, evolving a talent that could resist a certain level of spiritual spells."

"Some high-level members of these races are not completely immune, but they can resist most spiritual influences."

"Indeed, it’s a shame there’s no ’if’..." Sulfur Vine sighed.

The talents of some races truly incite envy.

Hmm?

Benest’s words sparked a flash of inspiration in Rein’s mind.

This...

Actually!

Maybe, for others, if they don’t have it now, they never will.

But he truly does!

Even if he doesn’t have it now, he believes, in the future, he definitely will have it.
