Digging to Survive: I Can See Hints

Chapter 525: The Girl’s Disappearance

He reached out and grabbed Klein’s shoulder. “Don’t be anxious. She might not have been lost. Perhaps the little girl is afraid and hiding somewhere. I’ve already sent people to look for her!”

Klein was truly anxious.

Ever since Harris met the little girl, there had been a thorn in Klein’s heart that he hadn’t pulled out.

He had always suspected that there was some sort of relationship between the little girl and Demon King Saxe.

Klein led a group of people to search for a long time, but they still couldn’t find the little girl,

the little girl didn’t have her own memories, so she was rather unfamiliar with everything.

Therefore, she had always followed behind Klein. She would never run around randomly.

Before he left, Klein had repeatedly instructed her to wait for him to return.

The sudden disappearance didn’t mean that she had run away. There was a high chance that she had been captured!

With this in mind, Klein felt even more anxious,

He didn’t know when it began, but he already had a responsibility towards the little girl. Now that he had lost her, he naturally had a responsibility to bring him back.

Furthermore, Cruise had been analyzing the situation. Demon King Saxe seemed to know about the relationship between the little girl and Klein,

Therefore, he had taken her away in order to obtain a bargaining chip so that he could negotiate with Klein.

Klein felt that his analysis made sense.

After failing to find her, he made up his mind to find Demon King Saxe and take a look at his lair.

He had to find her no matter what!

Upon hearing Klein’s words, the natives were all surprised.

Demon King Saxe was a terrifying demon to them. He was untouchable for life and the farther away he was, the better.

And Klein wanted to enter a dangerous place by himself?

Many people came out to advise him. “Klein, it’s best to think long-term about this matter. It might not be the case that the little girl was captured by Saxe. You’re so reckless. What if you fall into a trap?”

Klein sneered. In this situation, even if it was a dragon’s den or a tiger’s den, he would still have to take the risk.

“In your eyes, Saxe might be a powerful devil. To me, he’s just an opponent of equal strength!”

Previously, when Klein fought with Saxe’s subordinates, he had already grasped the other party’s strength and tactics.

Although he didn’t have absolute confidence, he could still fight.

Probably knowing that Klein had made up his mind, the few of them stopped trying to persuade him.

Because this trip was indeed dangerous, Klein didn’t plan on bringing any helpers and decided to take the risk alone.

On one hand, it was because Cruise was poisoned and couldn’t move for a short period of time.

On the other hand, this trip was indeed dangerous. If he were to implicate others because of his recklessness, Klein would feel uneasy.

James was actually worried about Klein’s body.

Ever since he used the time weapon, it had affected Klein’s body to a certain extent, and he had yet to recover.

James looked at Klein and said, “I hope you can still rest for two more days…”

Klein shook his head. He couldn’t wait any longer. He could even imagine the girl’s terrified and helpless gaze.

The girl must have been very afraid of after being captured by a stranger in a strange place.

After some simple repairs, Klein received a map given to him by the local natives.

On it was Demon King Saxe’s headquarters.

“It’s probably in this area. We’re not very familiar with the specific situation. After all, we haven’t been there before, so it’s normal for there to be some errors…”

Klein nodded and thanked him repeatedly. He was already very grateful for the help that the other party had given him.

Just as Klein was about to set off, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

James? Why would he appear here?

James looked at Klein and said, “Stop thinking about it. How can you risk your life without me? Don’t forget that my combat strength is also very strong!”

After so many joint operations, the two of them had formed a tacit understanding.

Needless to say, Klein knew that James wouldn’t let him fall into danger alone.

According to the author’s instructions on the map, Demon King Saxe’s base camp was indeed hidden. Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to find it.

After a moment of silence, James said, “I suspect that Demon King Saxe already has a certain degree of control over this space, which is why he can be so arrogant…”

If this space was already in a slump due to its lack of development, then was Demon King Saxe’s rise an accident?

“You mean to say that Demon King Saxe might not be a native of this space. Like us, he might have transmigrated here from another place because of the collapse of the space?”

James nodded. The overall development of a space should be average. It was really hard to explain the huge gap between the two.

Furthermore, the subordinates they had encountered previously had clearly grasped high-level spells and techniques.

It wasn’t just in this space. Even the space Klein was in could be considered one of the best.

If James’ conjecture was correct, there was definitely a rift in this space.

This rift led to a completely unknown domain. The resources in that domain were beyond imagination, and the development in all aspects was far ahead of them.

According to the directions on the map, they soon arrived at a large rift valley in the depths of space.

The rift valley was bottomless, like ravines that blocked their path.

Klein frowned slightly. With such an endless abyss in front of them, it was impossible for ordinary people to cross it.

After careful observation, there was no other path that led to the other shore. Wasn’t this path cut off?

If that was the case, what method did Demon King Saxe and his men use to cross this rift valley?

Or could it be that they were spinning in the wrong direction and there was no road in front?

James was a very famous geography enthusiast. He had studied many of the paths marked on the map and came to a conclusion.

“Look, the entire space is indeed divided into two different parts. Although it is not marked, the appearance of this great rift valley also proves that Demon King Saxe’s headquarters is not far from here. It should be on the other side!”

The reason why Demon King Saxe chose such a perilous terrain was to use the wrath of heaven to fortify his fortress.

Since no one could surpass him, he naturally had nothing to worry about.

Klein asked, “You mean to say that Saxe chose this place as his headquarters because of the geographical conditions? Then, how is he going to come out by himself?”

“I believe that he has a special method to cross the rift valley. This method is unknown, but if we want to find Demon King Saxe’s base camp, we have to cross the rift valley!”

Klein sniffed, feeling that this was rather ridiculous.

This was really not something that an ordinary person could do. There were only two ways to do this.
