Chapter 56: Secrets of the Wreckage
"Tell me, what is your purpose in attracting adventurers into the secret realm?"

Li Qiuzhi looked down at the Ice Abyss Mage and questioned.

"You really know!"

The Ice Abyss Mage felt that this was exactly as he expected, but at the same time he was a little confused as to why these humans knew this?

Moreover, this is the second level of the secret realm. How did they manage to explore here in such a short time? !

“Stop talking nonsense and answer the questions of this princess’ attendant!” Fischl clenched her white hands, as if she was about to hit someone.

“Don’t fight, don’t fight!” The Ice Abyss Mage begged for mercy, and then couldn’t help but said with a sly smile, “Hehe, what’s the use of telling you? When so many of you humans stepped in, our goal had already been achieved!”

"Oh?" Oz, the Night Crow, made a puzzled sound.

Li Qiuzhi and the other two frowned when they heard what it said, obviously worried.

The Ice Abyss Mage was very satisfied with the reactions of the humans in front of him, and continued:

"Originally, there was no portal in this secret realm. It was our great apostle who used his powerful strength to create a space crack leading to the interior of the secret realm!"

Could it be that the Apostle is the Apostle of the Abyss? Li Qiuzhi pondered for a moment.

He vaguely remembered that the Abyss Cult was indeed very accomplished in spatial capabilities, and even had its own complete teleportation network, allowing them to go wherever they wanted, which was much more powerful than a teleportation anchor point.

"Of course the Apostle was busy with his work, so he gave us the task and left. Humph, otherwise you would all be buried here if he just moved his finger!"

The Ice Abyss Mage danced with joy and seemed very proud when talking about the Apostle.

"oops!"

Fischl raised her right foot, which was wearing high-heeled boots. The black pantyhose clung to her legs, wrapping her bent knees to make them more defined and rounded.

Before she kicked down, the Ice Abyss Mage covered his head and screamed.

"Stop flattering your Apostle and continue to tell us what you know!"

Li Qiuzhi thought for a moment and continued.

The Ice Abyss Mage nodded, then smiled wickedly and said:
".Hehehe, the special thing about this secret realm is that there is a remnant of a demon god sleeping here. It hated humans when it was alive, and the resentment it left behind after its death is the same.

“Generally speaking, there wouldn’t be any problem even if one or two adventurers accidentally entered this secret realm.

"But when a large number of humans enter the secret realm, it will definitely alarm it. I believe that the remains of the demon god are already in the process of awakening. Even if you know this news, it will be useless. How about it, aren't you scared, haha!"

Bennett touched his pale golden hair in confusion and asked:
"The remains of a demon god? What is that?"

Even as an experienced adventurer, he had rarely heard of anything related to the devil.

"Legend has it that demons are very powerful beings. Even if they pass away, they will probably leave something behind. That should be the remains of a demon."

Fischl had read relevant travel notes and rumors, so he had some knowledge of it.

"Well, it's a very remarkable thing." Oz also said as he flapped his wings of night.

"It looks like there is indeed trouble. Are you from the Abyss Cult awakening the remains of the Demon God in order to let it leave the secret realm and cause some degree of crisis to Mondstadt?"

Li Qiuzhi asked thoughtfully.

The Abyss Cult is hostile to the civilization of the continent of Teyvat and covets all living things on earth. It only wants to subvert the world ruled by the Seven Rulings of the Midgard, so it is not difficult to understand why they take such actions.

"Oh? Human, you seem to be very smart, that's right!" The Ice Abyss Mage admitted generously. "What? Then Mondstadt will be in danger!"

Bennett's eyes widened, obviously shocked by the huge conspiracy of the Abyss Cult.

“Does Oz have any solution?” Fischl looked at the ground, his fair face full of worry.

".Well, Miss, this is a secret place. Even if the remains of the demon god awaken and want to escape, they will have to go through the portal. As long as we close it in advance, there will be no problem."

What Oz said does make sense. As long as the door is closed, no matter how the remains of the demon move, they will be within the secret realm and cannot go out to affect the outside world.

"It's impossible. You can't do it. The secret portal here has been reinforced by the Apostle. It can't be destroyed so easily in a short time."

The Ice Abyss Mage laughed evilly and shook his head. He continued to say mockingly:

“Moreover, there are so many of your adventurers in the secret realm. Do you want to abandon them by closing the portal?
"You humans can't do such a thing. By the time you notify everyone of them to evacuate the secret realm, the remains of the demon god will probably have fully awakened!"

I have to say, what this bastard Abyss Mage said is indeed right.

The remains of the demon that the Apostles of the Abyss believe can pose a threat to Mondstadt must be strong, and it would be very dangerous to let it escape like this.

But even if Li Qiuzhi and the others ran out now to inform the Adventurer's Association of the news, it would take a lot of time to summon the adventurers in the secret realm to evacuate and find a way to destroy the portal.

If you look at it this way, the Abyss Cult's conspiracy was truly successful.

However, there was one thing that the Abyss Mage did not say at all. He deliberately let Li Qiuzhi and the others believe that the remains of the demon god would be very powerful and terrifying after waking up.

But there is no mention of the situation before waking up.

The focus of the demon's wreckage is not the front part but the latter part. The main body of the demon has long passed away, so the wreckage left behind cannot become stronger with time.

That would definitely be a process of wear and tear over a long period of time.

From the time when demons were prevalent to the present day, if nothing unexpected happened, the demons' remains would have long been like a candle in the wind, otherwise there would not be a "awakening" process.

I think its "awakening" is just a last glimmer of light before its final demise!
The Abyss Cult probably wanted to make use of the last bit of value in the Demon God's remains, so they came up with this conspiracy.

If nothing unexpected happens, if we can interrupt the process of the demon's remains' last hurdle and make it perish ahead of time, all problems and crises will be solved.

But these are just speculations, and Li Qiuzhi is not sure.

In order to further confirm his guess, he spoke it out and secretly paid attention to the reaction of the Abyss Mage.

"As expected of you, Mr. Li Qiuzhi. I quite agree with your ideas!"

First of all, it was Oz. He had not thought of this possibility before, and the probability was not small.

"So, as long as we find the remains of the demon god and clean them up in advance, Mondstadt will be safe!"

Bennett said excitedly as his emerald eyes seemed to light up.

“I see. A mere prisoner dares to scare this princess!” Fischl’s confident look reappeared on her fair face, and she glared at the Ice Abyss Mage on the ground.

When Li Qiuzhi expressed his guess, the Abyss Mage fell into silence.

The most important task assigned to them by the Apostle is to stop all adventurers who may approach it before the remains of the demon wake up completely.
