Chapter 751 Where The Strongest Gather
Chapter 751 Where The Strongest Gather
After a hearty lunch inside the Varca Death Zone, Shye gave Nookie fifteen minutes to return its corpse puppets to their containers before heading toward the notorious Throgon Death Zone—the only Death Zone in the world that was partially under the jurisdiction of the Yon Augenn Region, with the other half lying within the wastelands.
The wastelands were, like its name, a vast area devoid of mana, and only a few creatures lived there.
Its lands used to be under the authority of Yon Augenn, Deltra, and Fanfir.
Unfortunately, the Domus Deorum Mana Dungeon had sucked the area dry, converting the once thriving independent sub-region into nothing but a vast wasteland.
Naturally, the heroes from the three regions tried to clear it in the past.
Unfortunately, no one had ever succeeded, and it was currently impossible to do so, as the dungeon had gained sentience and now blocked entry to anyone with even the slightest potential of clearing it.
Left with no other option, the WAA had no choice but to abandon the land. Enjoy new chapters from My Virtual Library Empire
Fortunately, the mana siphoning range of the Domus Deorum mana dungeon is limited to the borders of the wastelands.
It would need to grow legs and move closer if it wanted to draw mana from other parts of the world.
Nonetheless, the Throgon Death Zone was a place full of countless opportunities, though these naturally came with great peril.
This made it extremely attractive for the most skilled adventurers and the strongest of monstrous creatures.
It was the zone where the most powerful gathered.
Even the Yon Augenn Heroes collected their crafting materials and obtained the skill books for their current trump cards from the labyrinths and tombs within the Throgon Death Zone.
This was also why Shye was worried about Nookie's well-being inside the zone, fearing that the little necrollin, a vital part of his personal army, might perish there.
In the end, however, he chose to trust his tamed monster.
After all, it was extremely smart.
He wanted to at least identify which monsters controlled specific territories and learn about the overlords who ruled over large regions.
Hence, the couple headed to the largest pub in the city and chose a seat in a secluded corner of the establishment.
Familiar with such attire and secretive behavior, the pub's manager exchanged a nod with one of his informants before the latter walked toward Shye and Shirley's table.
He sat with them promptly after the waiter left to handle the couple's order.
Upon seeing their faces, the informant was dumbfounded, almost jumping up in surprise and slight disbelief.
Fortunately for the couple, the man was a professional and managed to catch himself in time, avoiding such a foolish move.
Taking one deep breath, the informant spoke:
"It's an honor to serve you, Sir Crowley of the Black Dawn and Lady Locke of the Sanguine Eve. How can I assist you both?"
They were informants, and being knowledgeable about even the most recent of happenings was their job, so the guy naturally knew Shirley, despite her meager reputation compared to Shye.
As informants, it was their job to stay informed about even the latest events.
Naturally, the man recognized Shirley, despite her having a lesser reputation compared to her lover.
Shye appreciated the guy's straightforwardness and professionalism.
Hence, he immediately pulled out a coin sack containing five hundred gold coins—a small amount to him but a huge one to the informant.
Such a tip would feed the guy's family for multiple months.
"Thank you, Sir Crowley of the Black Dawn and Lady Locke of the Sanguine Eve. I will never forget this favor," the informant said gratefully, offering a discreet bow to the couple.
"No worries," Shye replied. "Our request is simple. We want to know everything you know about the Throgon Death Zone, including the latest news about both monsters and adventurers."
