Perhaps Ice Blue Knight King was worried about Bai Wei's safety, but he didn't assign any more missions to Han Sen's team. Han Sen and the others waited in the base for half a month, but they didn't have a chance to leave.
But that was exactly what Han Sen wanted. If Night River King was the first, there was no guarantee that a second King class elite wouldn't come after them with an Ancient God statue.
The three-colored Demon Bug King beast soul was badly damaged, and Han Yan's Demon Bug King Bai Sema was the only thing Han Yan could use. If it came again, there was nothing Han Yan could use.
Being able to stay in the sanctuaries and receive the protection of the knights was a good thing for Han Sen.
That thought continued until Han Sen received the Ji family's deciphered diary.
The Ji family's experts were very efficient. After deciphering the password of the diary, they were able to decipher the real content of Night River King's diary.
The contents of the diary were written before Night River King arrived in the systems of chaos. The content was simple, and when the code was translated, it was just one or two simple sentences. It didn't mean much, and it was obviously just a cover story.
But when Night River King arrived in the systems of chaos, he was sent to the Ice Blue System to defend against xenogeneics. That was when the diary became interesting.
Not long after Night River King arrived, he noticed something strange. He didn't report it to the Ice Blue Knights, though. Instead of reporting it, he observed it in secret.
Sixty-seven days ago, on the second day of Night River King's arrival at the Ice Blue System's defenses, a group of xenogeneics wandered into the Ice Blue System. They fought with the Ice Blue Knights, who were guarding the perimeter.
On that day, Night River King's diary was written in code.
"It's there. It's always been there."
That sentence didn't make sense, and Han Sen didn't know what it meant. But it was clear that Night River King had discovered something.
Han Sen kept reading Night River King's diary, and he noticed that the rest of the entries were very short.
"It's still there. Purple."
"Number 7 is infected. No abnormalities detected."
"No. 32 is infected. No abnormalities detected."
…
"Anomaly No. 1 … under observation …"
For the next month or so, Night River King seemed to be observing something. Even though his writing was very short and did not use any emotional words, Han Sen could feel the fear and anxiety in Night River King's heart from between the lines.
"What did he discover?
What was it that made him so fearful?
What are the things he numbered? "Han Sen frowned in thought, but he had no answer.
The rest of the content was more or less the same. A few days before the Night River King came to kill him, Han Sen saw a passage in the coded diary.
"Edward asked me to kill Han Sen. Although it's risky, it's worth a try. If I succeed, I'll be able to get away from him."
Han Sen frowned again. It was clear that Night River King knew that agreeing to Edward's request was risky, but it was obvious that Night River King was more afraid of "it."
The next few days were the same observation diary entries. It was still talking about "it" and the creatures with numbers. It was obvious that the creatures with numbers had undergone many strange changes.
The day before Night River King came to kill Han Sen, it was the last entry of the diary. Han Sen read something that shocked him.
The last entry was very long by Night River King. There was a lot of information that could be deciphered. Even Han Sen found it hard to believe.
"Oh my god!
Number 7 broke through to King class … It's it … It must be its power that affected Number 7 … What is that power?
Will it be dangerous?
Can I use that power? "Night River King looked very excited. He used a lot of question marks.
"What did Night River King see?
What was the thing with the numbers?
It can make creatures become King class. If that thing is in the Ice Blue System, and Night River King sees it often, there's no way the Ice Blue Knights can't see it. "
Han Sen frowned. But in Night River King's diary, there was no description of what "it" was. Han Sen couldn't make a wild guess.
"Purple. Night River King found it, but the other Ice Blue Knights didn't. And it infected a few numbered creatures. One of them leveled up to King class." Han Sen tried to sort through all the clues he knew, but he didn't have much to learn.
"It looks like I'll have to go to where Night River King is guarding. That's the only way I can find out what that thing is," Han Sen thought to himself. But this was the Ice Blue Knights, and he couldn't go anywhere he pleased.
Han Sen used the excuse of asking about Night River King to ask about Night River King's experiences in the Ice Blue System. The results disappointed Han Sen. None of the Ice Blue Knights who had been guarding the area with Night River King had become King class.
Han Sen thought the numbers represented the Ice Blue Knights who had been with Night River King, but that didn't seem to be the case.
"What do those numbers mean?
If I can figure out what those numbers mean, it won't be hard to find that thing, "Han Sen thought to himself.
The last entry of Night River King's diary was a secret that interested Han Sen. If that thing could really make other creatures King class, then Han Sen was very interested in finding out what it was.
But if a King class elite like Night River King was so scared, then that thing must have been dangerous. Or rather, Night River King thought it was dangerous.
"How can I go to the place Night River King was guarding?" Han Sen thought for a long time, but he couldn't think of a good idea.
That place was the outermost edge of the Ice Blue System, and only the Ice Blue Knights were stationed there. Han Sen was only a reserve Knight, and he wasn't qualified to be stationed there. Even if Han Sen applied to be transferred, he wouldn't be able to.
Plus, Han Sen didn't think it was a good idea for him to be transferred there. Edward would definitely try to get back at him for the stone plate, and there would be plenty of opportunities for Edward to take advantage of that place.
But if he didn't see what Night River King was talking about with his own eyes, Han Sen didn't want to give up.
If that thing was really dangerous, it could be a threat to the entire Ice Blue System. If that happened, Han Sen and the others would be affected as well.
"Han Sen, Knight King wants you to meet him in his office." A reserve Ice Blue Knight knocked on Han Sen's door.
"Okay, I'll go now."
Han Sen agreed and went to Ice Blue Knight King's office. He didn't know why Ice Blue Knight King wanted to see him.
