Mages Are Too OP

Chapter 615 Get Information Little by Little

Isabella sat down on the lawn and stretched her slender, trim body.

Despite being in the Netherworld, being a believer in the Nether God, and having a blurred view of the line between life and death, her elven instincts remain unchanged and she still preferred to be close to plants and nature.

“I’m naughty?” Isabella had calmed down by now, and she said indifferently, “I just asked you to suck all his blood.”

“You just said bodily fluids.” The maid narrowed her eyes and smiled. “Blood is a bodily fluid, but there’s something else to bodily fluids.”

“Pee or something?” Isabella frowned. “That’s disgusting.”

“You’re so innocent.” The maid sighed languidly. “I can’t even bear to bring you down.”

Isabella showed a puzzled look.

The maid was about to speak, but at that moment her body suddenly lurched, then she called out in surprise, “Master is awake. I can’t chat with you now, we’ll talk about it some other time.”

With those words, the maid hurried downstairs.

Feeling the grass on her body, Isabella walked over to the window and looked off into the distance.

An exaggerated rainbow bridge spanned the sky, its colors becoming gradually solid from a pale luster.

Below the rainbow bridge, countless energy petals fluttered.

A huge floating ship gradually descended from the sky, its white sails emblazoned with a pink flower bud.

The hull of the ship was painted silvery white, and the petals fluttered around it, moving along with it.

The whole city rang with the tinkling of wind chimes.

Countless black bats flew up from beneath the city, densely packed, forming a black sea.

And the silver ship sailed slowly on this black sea.

Finally, it sailed to the giant stone pillar platform where Isabella was.

Isabella quickly walked to the edge of the platform, where the ship was anchored to the side of the stone pillar, a wooden ladder connected to the side of the ship.

A young, petite, black-haired girl slowly walked down from above.

Just looking at her made Isabella feel her heart was beating faster.

She immediately lowered her head, bending slightly.

It was only when she couldn’t see the young girl that she felt a lot calmer.

Though her head was down, Isabella still kept her ears open for any movement ahead.

Soft footsteps passed in front of her, which were followed by many more cautious footsteps.

It didn’t take long for all the footsteps to fade.

After a long time, she looked up.

At this point, there was no one else on the platform except for the docked giant sailing ship.

Isabella felt a little lost. She knew she was in the wrong frame of mind, but she just couldn’t help it.

All the people who saw the vampire’s True Ancestor would be attracted to her. There was no way to avoid it.

Looking at the sky, Isabella exhaled softly before she summoned the black cloud, stood on it, and left this place.

After all, she remembered that she still had to go home to have a meal with her parents.

At this time, Roland and others had already gathered to exchange information.

Once they compared the intelligence they gathered, they found that the vampire’s True Ancestor didn’t have any intention of hiding.

Everyone knew that she lived in the Ten Thousand Stones Abyss.

It was said that when she slumbered, she would take a rather precious floating ship and rise to a high altitude to conceal herself and ensure her safety while she slept.

When she woke up, a rainbow would appear that could be seen by almost the entire Netherworld.

“Isn’t that the rainbow?” asked Raffel, the Shield Warrior who had been lying by the window looking out at the view, pointing to the southern sky.

The other four came over to take a look and saw that there really was a rainbow hanging in the sky. “As we all know, rainbows are actually a light refraction phenomenon.” Schuck smiled. “But there is no sun in the Netherworld, and there is no way that the green and purple colors could form a multicolored spectrum, so the fact that there is a rainbow means that it is man-made.”

Roland looked a little disappointed. “In short, it means that we came just in time for the True Ancestor to wake up?”

“Isn’t that good?” Li Lin was a little confused. “It means the quest has begun, right?”

“Not good.” Roland shook his head. “If she were still asleep, how easy would it be for us to just fly up and find her floating ship and sink it with a big fireball. We wouldn’t have to face an awake, near-Demigod boss.”

This suddenly dawned on Li Lin. “Oh right, all dungeons have opportune short cuts. It’s a pity indeed!”

There was also a flurry of pop-ups in the livestream.

“I’ve got the same enlightened face.”

“Damn, watching these big shots live, I just realized that I’m not only intellectually different from them, but there’s also a gap in the nature of how I see things. I’m just like the Berserker, thinking that the quest plot has started and I can start screwing around, but f**king Roland is actually thinking about sinking someone’s sleeping shelter first.” “I just realized too. Is this the way successful people think?”

“And to say that Roland doesn’t have a black heart! It’s as black as coal, isn’t it?”

“Diamonds are also coal. I prefer to say that Roland has a heart as bright and clear as a diamond.”

“Upstairs is a sly old one too. You’re trying to say Roland’s heart is as hard and ruthless as a diamond.”

“Oh dang, if you didn’t explain I couldn’t even understand that he was cursing Roland.”

“This world has all kinds of people like Mille Crepe cakes(1), can a husky brain like mine still be good?”

Not to mention the attitude of the netizens in the livestream at this point, Roland and the others started making preparations after seeing that rainbow.

After confirming the supplies in their Backpacks, they began to leave the city and started walking southward.

Roland also left a mark outside the city, so that in case something happened, they could still teleport back in an emergency. The Ten Thousand Stones Abyss was not far from Portree. When Roland left the city, he bought a stone cart and then bought a four-legged animal unique to the Netherworld to pull the cart. It looked like an elaphure, with horns, four hooves, a horse face, a dog tail, and a pig’s body. Despite its odd appearance, it was very strong and didn’t eat much, and it could eat plants, meat, or even carrion. It was excellent for pulling a cart.

Some clothes were put in the cart. Roland alone naturally didn’t have that many clothes. The other four also contributed quite a few.

Some emergency rations were placed on it as well.

The food tasted average, but in the Netherworld, it was a delicacy.

“We’ll pose as luxury merchants later,” Roland explained as he walked ahead. “I’m the merchant owner, Schuck is the accountant in charge of bargaining and buying, and you three are the escorts.”

“These things can be luxury goods?” Li Lin had some doubts.

Roland laughed. “From the mayor’s attitude just now, you can tell that such clothes are definitely luxury items.”

Li Lin threw up his hands. “Well, I’m just raising some questions, you’ll be the one executing the details.”

“After we blend in, don’t rush to act, continue to poke around for information,” Roland said after some thought. “Find out the topography of the Ten Thousand Stones Abyss and the layout of the city to facilitate our escape. Then inquire about the True Ancestor’s personality, preferences, eating habits, and abilities. It’s best to even find out the number of the guards around her.”

The other four nodded.

“As for emergency food…” Roland thought about it and said, “The vampires only drink blood and don’t eat anything else, but the blood slaves they keep are human and need to eat. I think the True Ancestor, as the noblest vampire, should keep blood slaves of good quality that are well-fed… If we can sell food to the head steward in charge of these blood slaves and set up a relationship, we might be able to pry out considerably useful information. It’s in your hands, Schuck, you’re the best negotiator out of all of us.”

Schuck nodded. “I’ll do my best.”

Just then, Roland, who was at the front, suddenly reached out and stopped the cart.

The other four immediately drew their weapons and stood guard.

In the distance to their right, a group of men dressed in black was silently watching them.

There were at least thirty people on the other side, and all of them were professionals, the lowest at level four. Eleven of them were Masters.

“When did the robbery lineups all get so luxurious?” Li Lin was surprised.

If this was the main plane, these thirty people would be able to control a large city with a population of a million.

Just when they thought there was going to be a confrontation, the other side retreated, leaving quickly, as if they had no interest in them.

Shuck thought for a moment and said, “Could it be that they saw we only had one cart and couldn’t bear to rob us?”.

The other four shrugged in disappointment.

In reality, they all quite wanted to fight. If the other party took the initiative to attack, then killing the enemy in self-defense could earn them a lot of EXP. It was a good way to level up and earn EXP.

Pity!

The other side ran away.

The five continued. The rainbow in the air had disappeared, but according to the intelligence, the vampires’ True Ancestor would be awake for at least six months before she would sink back into slumber.

So… the idea of waiting for the True Ancestor to sleep before finishing her off was feasible, but it would just take too long.

It wasn’t worth it.

They arrived outside the Ten Thousand Stones Abyss.

There were no walls here because the abyss was the best wall.

All five of them were shocked by the huge sinkhole.

And the long, tall, stone pillars in the pit were densely connected, giving the illusion of an exotic alien world.

At the edge of the pit, there was a large gantry, which was a high square stone frame.

There were a dozen soldiers on guard there, and Roland and the others went over with their cart.

The captain-like person also came over of his own accord, and he was a little surprised to see Roland and the others. “You all… just came from the outside world not long ago?”

The captain was a human.

“You can tell?” Roland asked with a smile.

“The life energy is still thick in you, and your aura is not quite the same as ours on this side.” He looked at the wagon behind Roland and couldn’t help but gasp when he saw the twenty or so pieces of clothing piled on it, as well as some emergency rations from the main plane. “Oh my Nether God, how did you get these rare goods?”

“Brought them from the main plane.”

The captain said admiringly, “You guys are going to be rich… Everyone else in this city except the Her Majesty the True Ancestor will have their souls hooked by your clothes.”

“Why doesn’t your Her Majesty the True Ancestor like new clothes?” Roland asked, pretending not to care too much.

“Because she can teleport long distances!” The captain didn’t have any suspicions and answered Roland’s question directly. “Every year, she spends a day or two on the main plane, so she doesn’t lack new clothes to wear at all.”

Roland hummed a response. The vampires’ True Ancestor also knows spatial magic.

When fighting with her, he had to be careful not to let her escape with Teleportation, so Dimensional Anchor scrolls had to be prepared.
