Digging to Survive: I Can See Hints - Chapter 506
Chapter 506: The Sorrow of the Bald Uncle
“Don’t cry yet. Tell me what happened in detail!”
At this moment, the bald uncle was crying so hard that he was out of breath. It took him a long time to speak.
In the end, he finally revealed the cause and effect of his theft of the Black Lotus Flower.
“I heard that someone might have obtained the Black Lotus Flower in the Heavenly Lake, so I thought of using invisibility to come in and steal it…”
This method was simply too clumsy. Even if it was invisibility, it would make a sound,
Klein’s ears were sharp, and he would soon be discovered,
Klein frowned slightly. “What use do you have for the Black Lotus Flower? Could it be that you also want to develop the legendary Elixir of Immortality?”
The bald uncle hurriedly shook his head. “I wouldn’t dare. With my abilities, I definitely can’t refine such a legendary elixir. Furthermore, the other raw materials are nowhere to be found. I actually want this Black Lotus Flower for another use…”
Cruise blinked, somewhat curious.
“Ah? It’s not used to refine an Immortal Divine Medicine?”
Cruise shook his head and said, “Then, if you steal the Black Lotus Flower, you’ll definitely sell it on the black market for a large sum of money?”
It was said that the price of the Black Lotus Flower in the black market had risen to an astonishing height.
As long as Klein was willing to sell it, he could easily become the richest person in the world.
The bald uncle shook his head repeatedly. “No, it’s not that. I’m not selling it for money either. Besides, it would be quite troublesome for anyone to obtain something like the Black Lotus Flower. I don’t want to get myself killed either…”
It turned out that the bald uncle wanted to obtain the Black Lotus Flower in order to save his daughter.
It turned out that the bald uncle was a local aborigine. Because Klein had opened some sort of enchantment, he had opened a path between the two spaces that were originally completely isolated.
When they fell into this space, they became foreign invaders.
And this space itself had its own aborigines. It was just that the aborigines’ abilities and combat strength were very worrisome.
Therefore, they didn’t launch a large-scale counterattack against the invaders who came to plunder their resources.
Upon hearing the bald uncle’s words, Klein’s face revealed a look of guilt.
Klein shook his head and said, “I’m sorry. It’s true that our appearance has disturbed your lives, but we definitely don’t have any evil intentions of invading. We just want to share resources…”
In fact, even if there were no intruders, the natives of this space wouldn’t be able to survive in this space for long with their abilities.
In the end, they would also die.
And the appearance of these invaders happened to give them a glimmer of hope.
Cruise reached out and touched his chin. “Then what does this Black Lotus Flower have to do with your daughter? Did something happen to him?”
The bald uncle sighed softly. “You don’t know, right? There’s actually a ruler in this space. This person is Demon King Saxe…”
Demon King Saxe?
Klein widened his eyes. What was this thing again?
It turned out that before the two spaces were connected, this space was in a desolate state. There were very few people, and they were all ordinary people with weak bodies.
That was until one day, Demon King Saxe appeared.
He possessed extremely high spells and strength, and he could trample all the aborigines under his feet and enslave them. He even took over all the resources in this space for his own use.
This space became a very deformed state. Everyone respected Demon King Saxe, but at the same time, they were both afraid and hateful of him.
“My daughter, Alice, is a very obedient girl. She used to live with me, so she could be considered carefree.”
Until one day, Alice was captured by Demon King Saxe. Her fate was still unknown, and her whereabouts were unknown.
“You haven’t gotten to the main point yet. What does the Black Lotus Flower have to do with Demon King Saxe?”
Cruise was impetuous, and he couldn’t help but feel anxious when he heard that.
“Sigh, I once begged Demon King Saxe to let my daughter go. He made a very strict request. If I could collect the legendary Black Lotus Flower and put it in front of him, he could let my daughter go.”
This was also the reason why the poor bald uncle was so obsessed with the Black Lotus Flower.
Klein blinked, feeling that Demon King Saxe had indeed gone a little overboard.
He had bullied these powerless commoners and even captured their daughter.
After such a long time, he didn’t know how the girl was doing.
“After Demon King Saxe captured my daughter, there was no news of her. It’s been three years, and I’ve never seen my daughter again…”
“It was said that Demon King Saxe lives in the deepest part of the space, in a carefully built cave, enjoying the rich resources that this place brought him.”
Klein frowned slightly. A large number of foreign invaders had occupied the space.
Demon King Saxe would definitely receive the news soon, and he believed that there would be action soon.
Klein didn’t know how he felt when he received the news.
If what the bald uncle said was true, Klein would be willing to take out the Black Lotus Flower and let the uncle save his daughter.
However, Klein had his own concerns.
On one hand, he heard the uncle say that Demon King Saxe was a sinister and cunning person who never kept his word.
Even if the Black Lotus Flower was placed in front of him, he would probably turn his back on it, and he would end up with nothing.
On the other hand, Demon King Saxe could be considered the strongest ruler of this space.
According to him, all the resources in this space belonged to him, so why couldn’t he just get the legendary Black Lotus Flower?
“To be honest, the Black Lotus Flower is indeed with me. It’s not that I don’t want to give it to you, but I’m afraid that Demon King Saxe doesn’t keep his word and is actually using it to make fun of you.”
Demon King Saxe had long known that the weak bald uncle would never be able to obtain the Black Lotus Flower with his own strength.
What he said was nothing more than pushing the bald uncle into a pit of fire. It was clearly a pastime.
Upon hearing Klein’s words, the bald uncle’s face revealed a look of shock and anger.
Cruise also snorted coldly. “It seems like if you want to save your daughter, you have to get rid of that fellow completely. Otherwise, none of you will have a good life!”
The bald uncle sighed softly and collapsed to the ground helplessly.
After three years of hard work, he still ended up with such a helpless outcome. A look of despair appeared on his face.
Klein returned the invisibility cloak he had put away.
This was probably the only valuable item left on the bald uncle’s body. It wasn’t good to keep it for oneself, right?
“Don’t worry, I’ll go find out more about this Demon King Saxe. If I can think of a way to save your daughter, I’ll help you fulfill this wish!”
