Digging to Survive: I Can See Hints

Chapter 545: Meeting With the Demon King

Gray asked, “Who is the person you wish to save?”

Klein’s eyes lit up. Upon hearing the other party’s answer, his emotions seemed to have eased up.

Klein nodded and said, “She was brought back by Saxe some time ago. She’s a young girl. That person is my partner. I believe you know about this matter?”

Gray nodded slightly. “I know. The identity of that girl isn’t as simple as you think. She doesn’t belong to your space. She’s our most honorable Princess…”

Sure enough, Klein received the answer he wanted from Gray,

He didn’t know the girl’s true identity before, but now he was finally sure that she was indeed connected to Demon King Saxe.

“Don’t be surprised. Things about Demon King Saxe and this space are shocking. It’s more complicated than you think.”

“At first, the Guardian of this space wasn’t Demon King Saxe, but another ruler.”

“He was called a Guardian because this ruler wasn’t a Demon King who could destroy the world.”

“But before using his own methods to protect this space from harm…”

Gray paused for a moment.

“This space wasn’t very stable a long time ago. There were often cracks that connected to other spaces…”

The ruler wasn’t someone who was in seclusion, but he knew that the people he was protecting were weak and couldn’t withstand any more attacks from the outside world.

Therefore, he sent people to repair the spatial rift.

Klein’s eyes widened in shock. So that was the case.

It seemed like the spatial rift had opened twenty years ago.

It was only because the legendary ruler had obstructed them and repaired them that they continued to this day.

And Gray himself should have arrived at this place from the tiny rift.

When Gray had entered this space, the first person he had met wasn’t Demon King Saxe, but the ruler!

It was no wonder that Gray was willing to work for one person. It seemed that this person wasn’t to be underestimated.

“And that little girl is the descendant of that ruler. She’s his only granddaughter, the so-called Princess…”

“This Princess originally had a noble status and was highly sought after by tens of thousands of people.”

“Just a while ago, this Princess had suddenly vanished from the face of the earth. No one knew where she had gone.”

“Demon King Saxe had also sent people to actively search for her, but there was no news of her whereabouts.”

“What happened to that ruler? Why has the ruler become Demon King Saxe now? You’ve seen his current methods of ruling. This seems to have gone against the ruler’s original intentions?”

Gray sighed softly. “This matter is rather complicated. It’s difficult to explain in a few sentences, but what I want to say is that the relationship between Demon King Saxe and the ruler is very good.”

“There’s nothing that can be done about the sudden death of the ruler. He was also willing to hand over his authority to Saxe. It’s not the bloody seizure of power that you imagine!”

Klein frowned slightly. He felt that the direction of the story wasn’t what he had imagined.

If that was the case, why had the ruler’s biological granddaughter suddenly disappeared? And why had she been locked up by that large monster? This was clearly a problem.

Klein seemed to want to clarify the matter and get on the same side as Gray as soon as possible.

But at that moment, there was a loud boom in the distance.

Gray frowned slightly. It seemed like that person had arrived.

Gray had previously sent his crow subordinates to report back. The crow flew extremely fast, and Demon King Saxe, who had received the news, quickly arrived.

This was probably the first summit meeting between Klein and Demon King Saxe.

What would happen if two extremely powerful people were to gather together?

At this moment, Gray had already shut his mouth and stopped discussing private matters with Klein.

However, Gray also felt that something wasn’t right. He decided to have a good chat with Klein after the matter was over.

Demon King Saxe had always appeared with an extraordinary aura. Not only did he bring many subordinates, but His Excellency the Demon King was riding a very flashy-looking mount.

It seemed to be a gigantic bat that had gone through evolution.

He stood on the bat and looked down at everything below, as though he didn’t put anyone in his eyes.

The bat landed on the ground, and Demon King Saxe walked down gracefully. It seemed like he didn’t put Gray in his eyes at all…

He waved his hand and walked straight to Klein.

Klein sighed inwardly. He really didn’t know what Gray was thinking, to actually work for such an arrogant ruler.

With Gray’s current ability, he could summon the wind and rain wherever he went. Why did he have to say such nonsense?

“You’re Klein. I’ve heard of you before. I heard that you not only killed one of my generals, but you also took away our Princess!”

Klein snorted coldly. “What do you mean by taking away your Princess? I don’t know the identity of that little girl at all. I unintentionally rescued her from the hands of a monster. I can be considered the little girl’s savior. If you don’t believe me, you can ask her yourself!”

Klein was still a little anxious. He didn’t know how the little girl was doing.

Would she suffer any harm if she completely lost her memory?

Demon King Saxe snorted coldly and raised his hands. His subordinates, who were wearing strange armor, surrounded Klein and James.

There was a kind of aura that said, ‘since you’re here, you can’t leave.’

“You don’t know, right? The little girl you mentioned is our Princess Anna. She’s the only descendant of the previous ruler. She’s a real Princess with golden branches and jade leaves. No matter who you ask, you’ll get an answer. I’m not lying to you!”

Klein nodded. He had already learned the ins and outs of the matter from Gray.

“I know you’re not lying to me, but I’m not lying to you either. If I can really verify Princess Anna’s identity, it’s understandable for you to keep her here. Before that, I have to fight for her approval. Otherwise, I won’t be at ease!”

Demon King Saxe frowned slightly. It seemed that he did not expect that there was such a persistent person in this world. For a little girl whom he met by chance, he actually went deep into the dragon’s den and the tiger’s den.

“Hehe, you foreigners suddenly barged into our territory. I didn’t even say anything, and you came to our door yourself. If you want to save her, you can. We always speak with strength here…”

Demon King Saxe suddenly raised his hands, and two blood-red spheres suddenly appeared in his hands.

Klein could tell that these were those precious magic gems, but he never expected that Demon King Saxe would actually fuse these gems into their final state.

Only tens of thousands of magic gems would be able to finally refine the blood smoke gems into such spheres!
