Chapter 1340 Aqura World

"What's wrong?" Ava noticed Tang Shaoyang looked a little lost. There were two possibilities as to why he looked like this. It was either he received a message from System Communication or he talked to Origin.

"Origin told me Zara wanted to meet me right now. It seems she made progress with the dimensional gate," Tang Shaoyang turned to Elinova, "If it really works as I thought it would, then you can visit your old home, Elin."

Elinova, Delia, Kairu, Wen, Arina, and Selena came from the same world and the same continent, the Arkania Continent. It was a world where The Game had not started yet. Right at the end of his mission in Arkania Continent, they got dragged with Tang Shaoyang because of the contract.

Tang Shaoyang's next destination was to visit Arkania again to open the seal of his Dragon Spirit, Rumru. Of course, he also had a promise to fulfill with one of the Gods in the Arkania Continent. Delia might meet her father again, and he could not really wait to see what Arkania had become with The Game.

Elinova smiled, "It doesn't really matter to me. This is my new home right now. But maybe, visiting my old home once in a while is not that bad."

Tang Shaoyang got up and kissed Xiulan's forehead, "Daddy can't play with you today, but maybe later," Then he gave Xiulan to her mother before kissing her mother's cheek and also Elinova's cheek, "I will be going, and I will return with the kids for lunch later."

Tang Shaoyang headed to the elevator and headed down to the underground city. Zara and Karoen were doing their research in Dwarven Keep with the Dwarf. As he arrived at the underground city through an elevator, a dwarf had been waiting for him. They were expecting his arrival right after Origin sent the message.

He followed the female dwarf into the Dwarven Keep, the city of dwarves. The city did not accept any visitors but high-ranking officials such Supreme General, Vice Supreme General, and Marshal. The dwarf did not want an outsider to visit their city. As for how they got the material and stuff. They had their own establishment on the surface to sort the materials they looked for.

But it seemed the research lab was even more hidden in the city itself. The research was not in the city as he went into an exclusive tunnel. He went through a hidden entrance that looked like a wall. Tang Shaoyang would miss the entrance for sure if not for the guide. The entrance led into a tunnel that led to another big underground space.

Then he was led to the end of the underground space where the tentacle knight, Karoen, and Zara were. They were not alone, four dwarves accompanied them. They were observing the active dimensional gate.

"You are here!" Zara was quite excited when she noticed his arrival. She beckoned her hand, signaling him to come over, "If our theory is correct, and everything goes smoothly. This gate leads to Aqura World where Arkania Continent is located. However, we are not sure if the gate is directly connected to the Arkania Continent. The gate might spawn in another continent."

Tang Shaoyang nodded and walked closer to the gate. He wanted to enter the gate to give it a try. If it was really Aqura World, then the seal on Rumru would break. That was the easy indication if he arrived at the right location.

However, he managed to hold his urge to enter the gate, "Is the gate stable?" He turned toward Zara and asked. The previous attempt resulted in an unstable gate, and the gate collapsed ten minutes after it was opened. If he entered the gate, and it collapsed. That would be troublesome. Especially when Zhang Mengyao and Li Shuang were away from The Empire.

"I don't know," Zara shook her head and turned toward one of the dwarves, "What do you think, Naten?"

"We have to wait to find out. If the gate does not collapse in ten hours, then it should be safe," The dwarf called Naten looked at the gate closely, "However, it looks good and stable, but let us observe longer to be safe, Your Majesty."

"Good work everyone," Tang Shaoyang nodded. He was not in a hurry, so it did not really matter if he had to wait even for a few days, "I did not expect you guys to get the result this quick."

Tang Shaoyang expected it would be months of work, but they succeeded in a week, more or less.

"Don't get too happy so soon. If our theory is correct, the other side might be Aqura, but it might not be Aqura unless we go in and check it. It might be a random world," Zara shrugged. There was no way to know the result unless they went into the gate and checked themselves. However, only a few people could confirm if the other side was Aqura.

Arina, Selena, Delia, Wen, and Kairu were currently not in the city. That left Tang Shaoyang and Elinova who knew about Aqura. One of them must go to the gate to confirm if the gate was correctly connected to their desired destination. Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net

"I will return at midnight. That should be enough time to find out whether the gate is stable or not, right?" Tang Shaoyang nodded. He had a promise with Li Yue and Li Jiaying to pick them up, and then have lunch together with Ava and Elin.

"Yes, that's more than enough time, Your Majesty," The second dwarf replied.

"Do you need people to protect the gate? We don't know that monsters might come from the other side," Tang Shaoyang thought of summoning spirits if Zara and Karoen would like to go rest.

"I will stay and make sure the gate is safe, Your Majesty," Karoen volunteered to guard the gate. The Mystical Spirit was more than enough to guard the gate.

"Are you sure? You can have rest, and I can summon a few spirits to guard the gate," He thought of summoning Afi the Primordial Urosa. The bear warrior was stronger than Karoen, and he would be easy to leave the gate. On top of that, Karoen deserved his rest after working for the dimensional gate.

"No, it's fine, Your Majesty. I will guard the gate until midnight," Karoen insisted to guard the gate.

"Alright. What about you? Do you want to go back?" He turned toward Zara.

"I want to meet my daughter. I want to meet Xiulan," Zara wanted to leave this place and leave the remaining work for the dwarf. She wanted to meet Xiulan. She regarded the baby as her own daughter already.

Tang Shaoyang nodded and summoned Afi, The Primordial Urosa. The bear warrior was discontent that he was summoned to guard the gate, but he did not complain openly. He kept it to himself as he assumed a sleeping position next to the gate.

"What about Vandir? I heard he was here as well?" With Afi, that should be enough to kill or even hold whatever came out from the gate. Not that he did not trust Karoen, but he just wanted an assurance that nothing wrong happened in this project.

"He is in that room," Karoen pointed at the door to the right, "He asked for a private room, and the dwarf made the room for him. He has not gone out for five days, and I am quite worried."

"What are you worried about?" Tang Shaoyang found it funny that Karoen was worried about Vandir. Vandir was the Death King. He was an Undead, he did not need food or drink. The worst possibility was that he died and returned to the Spirit World.

Even though he said that Tang Shaoyang decided to check on Vandir. He also wanted to know the progress of the research on his body. He knocked on the door, and a roar came out from the room.

Bam!

The door was opened as Vandir's skelly head popped out, "What I tell you not to disturb…." The skelly met with Tang Shaoyang's gaze, "Master!? What are you doing here?"

"I came to check on the gate. While I am here, I want to know what you have found about my body," Tang Shaoyang smiled.

"Your body is fascinating," Vandir pulled Tang Shaoyang into the room and closed the door. He did not let anyone take a peek or eavesdrop on his research, "Your muscle is amazing. Never seen such amazing muscle structure in other creatures. However, the best part is your heart, look at your heart."

Tang Shaoyang was pulled to the table where his body was. There he saw his body was perfectly dissected, and he saw at the chest where his triple heart, "Three different types of hearts in one body. Isn't it fascinating? I am currently trying to find out how three different hearts, three different energies work harmoniously."

"I have looked in your blood, and do you want to hear a surprise? Your blood actually can be a good material to make a healing potion. Maybe we can create an instant healing potion with your blood. But we need to extract the demonic energy in your blood to do that, and we can use the extracted demonic energy to make a poison."

Vandir sounded so excited as the undead told him that his own body was precious material for an alchemist.

"Are you an Alchemist or a Necromancer?" He could not help but ask.

"Me? I am proficient in Necromancy, but my alchemist skill is also good," Vandir then scanned Tang Shaoyang from the top to the bottom, "Now you have made a new energy, Chaos Energy. I wonder if there's any change in your body after the transformation."
