Chapter 105, Section 104: The Demon Clan's True Encirclement and Death Situation

The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the thin mist.

Gu Yuan woke up to find Celia already busy in the living room.

She was hunched over her desk, the paper covered with intricate magic circles.

Gu Yuan approached to examine it, and although he did not recognize it, he understood its purpose.

"What, you haven't given up yet?"

Celia didn't even look up, the quill pen scratching softly on the paper:

"Why give up? I haven't forgotten the attack I was in two weeks ago."

"If I hadn't gotten away from you in time so I could use magic to reduce the impact, I probably would have been smashed to pieces."

"Since your sword can change its weight at will without changing its density, then this must be related to gravity."

"Even if it's not magic, it's worth studying in depth."

Gu Yuan did not refute.

The master craftsman did not inscribe any magic on the sword; it was all due to the effect of that ore.

Unfortunately, the ore had already been smelted, and the source of its effects could no longer be verified. Shaking his head slightly, he decided not to delve any further and turned to walk towards the kitchen, intending to check on the condition of the dragon egg.

In the pale purple potion, about one-third of the stone patterns on the surface of the dragon egg had cracked, and the snow-white eggshell underneath was faintly visible.

At this rate, with a few more months of careful nurturing, they should hatch successfully.

Gu Yuan gently stroked the warm surface of the dragon egg, his eyes gleaming with anticipation and complex emotions.

"A near-immortal lifespan, reaching the size of an island upon adulthood—"

He muttered to himself, "It would be more than enough to build a city on top of it."

This idea was not something that came to mind on a whim.

The elven race is gradually declining due to its low reproductive capacity, and Frilian may even face certain death in the future.

If a sanctuary could be built on the back of the Celestial Dragon, the crisis of racial extinction might be averted.

Moreover, that gate between the two worlds seems to connect to countless unknown worlds.

Rare and exotic beasts, demi-human fairies—if we acquire them in the future, we will need sufficient space to house them.

The ground? It was filled with conflict.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan couldn't help but sigh softly.

Human lifespan is too short; he may not live to see all of this come to fruition.

But that's precisely why every step we take is so crucial.

As he was pondering this, a practical problem suddenly occurred to him:

If we want to cultivate the Celestial Dragon and build a city on its back, we will need to transport a large amount of resources onto the dragon's back in the future.

Not to mention the various supplies that will be needed when exploring new worlds in the future.

Sensing this need, Gu Yuan returned to the living room and saw Seria still researching gravity magic. He asked:

"Seria, do you know where I can find magical equipment that allows for spatial storage?"

He clearly remembered that Frilian had one in the future. It was a suitcase filled with various magical artifacts and survival supplies.

However, it is uncertain whether such magical creations already existed in this era.

Celia finally raised her head, raising an eyebrow as she looked at him:

"Space equipment? Those are extremely rare ancient magical artifacts. Why are you suddenly interested in them?"

"We'll need it eventually," Gu Yuan explained dismissively.

Celia gave him a wary look, as if she thought he was plotting something strange again, but still answered:

"I can help you find out, but you should be prepared that this kind of magical artifact is extremely rare even in the mythological era."

"As far as I know, only three pieces exist in existence, and all of them have been lost for a long time and their whereabouts are unknown."

Gu Yuan nodded, made a note of it, and then went out to the Chamber of Commerce.

It's not that I don't trust Celia, but I need to be prepared for both possibilities.

The Chamber of Commerce hall was bustling with people. Gu Yuan went directly to Reinhardt and drafted a letter of commission.

After completing the task, he carried his sword and headed out of the city to begin his daily martial arts training.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere inside the Demon King's castle was exceptionally heavy.

Shurahart had just finished peeking into the future, and a gloomy look hung over his face.

Donna strode into the main hall, her face filled with confusion and dissatisfaction.

"Shurahat, the battlefront in the northern kingdoms is at a critical juncture. Why have you suddenly summoned me back?"

"And what happened with Solitaire's death?"

They were just one step away from breaking through human defenses and launching a full-scale invasion of the Central Continent.

No one would be in a good mood if they suddenly encountered something like this.

The same applies to Schulahart.

He slowly turned around, his black robe trailing on the ground, his voice deep and powerful:

"It's very simple, I see your future."

"If you stay in the north, you will meet that human."

"Then, he will kill you."

This news was nothing short of a bolt from the blue for Donna.

"—How is that possible!"

"Nothing is impossible. Compared to before, he now wields a divine sword."

Donna narrowed her eyes dangerously: "Just with a sword?"

"It's not a problem with the sword."

Shurahart's voice turned serious. "And also, the Sealed Magic Ore—that's a mineral that can nullify magic."

"Solitaire died because of this."

"The Demon Sealing Mine?" Donna's tone carried a hint of surprise.

In that instant, she seemed to understand something.

Just as she was about to ask whether her transfer away from the capital was because she had foreseen this future.

Shurahat turned and stepped forward, before the prophet explained:

"There is still no solution for this type of ore."

"Therefore, to prevent other humans from obtaining it, I have dispatched 'Lightning' Hurlake and 'Divine Skill' Reifeldi."

Go and assassinate him.

"In addition, 'Bloody War God' Livale also seems to want to join the war, but he is unable to arrive for the time being due to the great distance."

Shurahat narrowed his eyes: "These are all renowned warriors in the clan. The magic-sealing mines are ineffective against them."

"Therefore, Donna, my recall of you is not only out of personal motives, but also because of His Majesty's considerations for the plan."

"Your next task is to observe from the shadows and, if necessary, deliver the fatal blow to that human."

The reason for recalling her was not merely out of fear of Gu Yuan, but to devise another plan.

Four hundred times the speed of sound is a speed that no human can react to.

In Shurahat's view, this was the most comprehensive arrangement possible.

Donna remained silent for a moment, processing this information, before finally showing an expression of understanding.

She realized that Gu Yuan was a threat—a human who could use the Demon-Sealing Mine to kill demons. Solitaire's death was not unjust.

Her tone turned serious: "Then when do I leave?"

They seemed unwilling to stay any longer.

Shurahart walked to the window and gazed at the gloomy sky in the distance:

"Wait for my signal. I'll tell you the specific action plan once they reach the central continent."

"During this time, prepare well and stay in top condition."

"Understood." Donna stood up, her armor clanging crisply. "As you command, Your Majesty."

After saying that, she turned and left with a cold expression, a dangerous aura spreading throughout the Demon King's City, and an ambush targeting Gu Yuan was quietly brewing.
