#316 - Chapter 315 Another Hidden Mission
"You've come here seeking to complete the trial to enter the Sin Domain Labyrinth, is that correct?" The Crystal Beast Lord's breathing was heavy.
"Yes."
Jiang Han nodded.
The Crystal Beast Lord gave Jiang Han a deep look. "Your strength is formidable, even more so than previous challengers. I acknowledge you."
"Take this horn."
A ball of milky white light slowly floated down in front of Jiang Han.
[Crystal Beast Lord's Horn]
[Description: The Crystal Beast Lord sheds a horn every ten years, but the most precious is the Violet-Gold Horn, which takes a hundred years to shed. The Crystal Beast Lord has crafted it into a horn. When you blow it, something interesting might happen.]
"Thank you."
Jiang Han nodded, somewhat surprised. He had expected a fierce battle, but it was completed so smoothly.
"Go."
The Crystal Beast Lord said in a deep voice, "If you encounter trouble in the Sin Domain Labyrinth, blow it. You will receive the help you need."
"Why?"
Jiang Han pondered for a moment, somewhat puzzled. "We should only be meeting for the first time, right? Why are you helping me so much?"
"..."
The Crystal Beast Lord was silent for a long while, then stared at Jiang Han with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice: "Because that place was once our home."
"The Sin Domain Labyrinth?" Jiang Han immediately reacted.
"Yes."
The Crystal Beast Lord said, "We are constantly thinking about returning to our homeland, but... the bottom layer of the labyrinth has been corrupted, and even I cannot enter."
"So, this trial is essentially a selection?" Jiang Han said thoughtfully.
"You can understand it that way."
The Crystal Beast Lord nodded, "We need someone strong enough to eliminate the calamity at the bottom, and in return, we will provide corresponding assistance."
"Coincidentally, you are the strongest trial-taker I have ever seen."
"I understand," Jiang Han nodded.
"Please, human."
The Crystal Beast Lord's eyes flickered, "We... have been away from our home for far too long. If you can truly allow us to return home, then you will gain our eternal friendship."
[Ding! Hidden quest 'Realm Soul Tomb' triggered]
[Quest Description: The Crystal Beast Lord requests you to clear the calamity at the bottom of the Sin Domain Labyrinth, allowing them to return to their homeland.]
[Quest Reward: Friendship of the Crystal Beast race]
[Quest Time Limit: None]
[Failure Penalty: None]
"A hidden quest?"
Jiang Han looked at the suddenly popped-up panel and accepted it without hesitation.
Anyway, there's no penalty for failure, and there are no restrictions. There's no reason to refuse this kind of quest.
Jiang Han thought for a while, then spread his hands and said:
"I can try to clear the calamity in the Sin Domain Labyrinth, but..."
"You can see my level, just level eighty."
"It doesn't matter," the Crystal Beast Lord said, "Just trying is enough. Even if you fail, it doesn't matter."
"No, no, no."
Jiang Han waved his hand, "You misunderstood me?"
The Crystal Beast Lord was stunned, "What?"
Jiang Han picked at his ear, "I mean, do you have any props or equipment, or even any hidden information? The more I strengthen myself, the greater the chance of success, right?"
Crystal Beast Lord: "..."
So, you're just asking for benefits?
"How about it?"
Jiang Han urged, "I think there should have been many people who entered the Sin Domain Labyrinth over the years, but none have succeeded, which shows that the difficulty of your task is indeed quite high."
"So, it's reasonable for me to want some insignificant divine artifacts or something?"
"As the head of a clan, you can't possibly not even have this much, right?"
The Crystal Beast Lord couldn't help but twitch in his heart.
Listen to that, is that human language?
What do you mean by insignificant divine artifacts?
How can you even say that?
"If there are no divine artifacts, then valuable props? Materials are also fine," Jiang Han said.
"Indeed, there are none of those," the Crystal Beast Lord shook his head.
"Really?"
Jiang Han frowned, could it be that he really can't fleece this sheep today?
"Lord, don't be stingy. I'm not going down there for myself this time, I'm also contributing to the clan."
"This is learning from Lei Feng and doing good deeds. At this juncture, don't worry about these trivial matters, okay?"
"There really aren't any," the Crystal Beast Lord sighed.
"It's not that I'm reluctant, but... we are just remnant souls."
"Remnant souls?" Jiang Han was shocked, then a flash went through his mind.
No wonder the name of this task is Realm Soul Tomb.
Does that mean that under the Sin Domain Labyrinth is a gathering place for ghosts?
"Yes."
The Crystal Beast Lord nodded, "You killed my clansmen a few days ago, I saw it. Didn't you notice that there were no drops?"
"That's true."
Jiang Han thought about it and nodded.
Then he said somewhat embarrassedly, "Well, that was also a last resort, I didn't intentionally antagonize you."
"It doesn't matter."
The Crystal Beast Lord shook his head, "We have already died, now we are just remnant souls. Moreover, you didn't truly make them disappear, you just took away the power of space from them. After a while, their souls can be reborn."
"That's so mysterious?"
Jiang Han was shocked to hear that this mechanism was almost the same as the players' resurrection.
This was the first time he had heard of NPCs having this special ability.
And...
The entire race?
Jiang Han's eyes flickered as he looked at the Crystal Beasts moving around. He instantly realized that this was an extremely special race.
Existing in the form of remnant souls, and they can also re-condense their souls.
Wait...
Jiang Han suddenly thought of something, "A presumptuous question, is the source of your ability from yourselves, or something else?"
"I can't tell you the answer to this question for the time being,"
The Crystal Beast Lord shook his head.
"For the time being?"
Jiang Han raised an eyebrow, "Then if I can clear the calamity at the bottom of the Sin Domain Labyrinth and let you return to your homeland?"
"If that's really the case, then naturally there's no problem,"
The Crystal Beast Lord nodded.
"Alright."
Jiang Han also nodded, "Can I regard this as an additional condition?"
"Not only that,"
The Crystal Beast Lord said, "As long as you can really do it and let us return to our homeland, then you can bring up any conditions, as long as I can do it, know it, I will tell you everything without reservation."
"I understand."
Jiang Han took a deep breath, and finally said in a deep voice, "Then, one last question."
Crystal Beast Lord: "Speak."
"I want to know, can this method of soul resurrection be used on someone who has been dead for a long time."
