Great Nobleman.

Chapter 2032 Spying in the Dark!
Next, he gave some words of encouragement to the royal guards stationed at the watchtower.

Yersen and Finn left side by side and headed to a large hall in the center of the fortress.

Immediately afterwards, an empty screen displaying numerous split-screen images appeared, along with Andy fiddling with a remote control in front of the empty screen, and several mages around him also holding remote controls.

After approaching and giving a brief greeting.

Yersen and Finn both focused their gazes on the empty projection screen.

On the split-screen displays, individual knight golems are now exploring different locations within the underground ruins.

Most of them were slowly walking through rugged underground stone paths, constantly exploring unknown areas.

A few of them were clearing away the underground creatures and spirits blocking their way.

—Because they only arrived here yesterday, the exploration of the ruins can almost be said to have just begun.

Noticing their curious gazes, Andy explained:
"We knight golems are currently located on the outskirts of the ruins."

A maze-like network of complex passageways envelops the entire ruins.

This situation is basically consistent with the information we obtained from local adventurers and Brand.

I think it will be quite some time before our knight golems can actually reach this underground ruin.

Hearing this, Finn asked curiously:

"So, as the intelligence reports, this ruin is really huge?"

Andy nodded and said:
"It should be correct. These mazes on the outer perimeter alone take up quite a lot of space."

As he spoke, Andy pointed to a split screen in the corner.

This split screen displays the paths the knight golems have explored and their current locations in a 3D image format.

It can be spotted at a glance:

As these knight golems continue to advance, the passageways are now becoming increasingly dispersed.

When Finn and Yersen looked on curiously.

Andy smiled and said:
"I must say, the system that Brand and his team designed based on the space magic array is really good, and it has greatly facilitated our exploration of the ruins."

If it weren't for the high price, I would have liked to rent a few more units from them.

This will likely significantly improve our efficiency!

This brings up the issue of excessively high equipment rental prices for libraries once again.

Yersin pondered for a moment and then suggested:
"How about we go talk to Brand again? And check on the progress of their experiment?"

Upon hearing this, Finn smiled and nodded, saying:
"I think that's a good idea. We can also tell him about our progress here!"

In the end, Finn simply took out his empty screen and made a communication request to Brand.

The communication request was quickly approved.

Brand appears in the empty screen display, with a background resembling a starry night sky.

Upon seeing this scene, Finn and Yersin, who were about to greet each other, unconsciously glanced at the bright sunlight streaming in through the window.

At this moment, Brand asked:

"Are you in trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Yersin shook his head and said:

"No, but why is it nighttime where you are?"

Upon hearing this, Brand smiled and said:

"It's not nighttime, but rather that we are currently at the [Star Boundary Line]."

You can see the stars here, whether it's day or night!
And you can see about one-fifth of the Rios continent!

As they spoke, Brand's movements caused the perspective to shift.

Yersen and Finn then spotted Catherine and several other library members.

They are now enveloped in a special barrier, with a ground beneath their feet composed of fine, bright brown rhombus-shaped earth elements.

—This is a ground made of [Space Prism Stones]!

Meanwhile, various kinds of equipment, including the "Eye of the Sky Zero" they had seen a few days ago, were placed here. Of course, none of the above was the main point; the real point was that, as their perspective shifted, they saw the blazing sun in the distance against the backdrop of the "night sky."

In addition, there is a vast land shrouded in mist, stretching as far as the eye can see, with no curves along its boundaries!

As they stared blankly at everything on the screen, their minds completely blank.

Seeing their reaction, Brand couldn't help but reveal a proud smile.

—One of the world's unsolved mysteries!

—Their research is that advanced!
Next, Brand, in a boastful tone, recounted to Yersen and the others the various interesting phenomena they had discovered at the [Astral Boundary].

While Yersen and the others were stunned by what they heard.

In the simulated world, Brand looked in surprise at a gray gem that was now glowing on the bracelet on his left wrist.

Then, in a flash, he arrived at the location of the space teleportation array on the Blue Star.

He summoned the main control screen of this spatial teleportation array, and checked the abnormal warning data within it.

Brand asked in surprise:

"Abnormal spatial data was captured near Yersin and his team's location?"

Is it that underground ruin? Or is someone else lurking in the shadows?

As he spoke, Brand pulled the light screen in front of him closer and began issuing a series of complex commands to the spatial teleportation array in front of him.

At the same time, in a hidden corner of the Blackrock Wasteland.

Inside the lair of Kandros.

While chewing on a chewy piece of black-armored rhinoceros, they looked at the outside world displayed on the smooth stone wall in front of them.

The enormous black dragon had a lazy expression on its face.

At this moment, two images are displayed on the stone wall in front of it.

One is the ground entrance to the nearby ruins, which is the stone fortress where Yersen and the others are located.

The second is a moving army of bones!

—It won't be long before the two sides come into contact, and a major war is clearly brewing!

As Candrus watched the two getting closer and closer.

While patiently waiting, it would occasionally let one of its claws reach into a spatial rift and snatch the black-armored rhinoceros kept outside as a snack.

It suddenly sensed something unusual, and opened its eyes wide, saying with some surprise:
"Spatial fluctuations? How precise!"
It doesn't look as rough as a skeleton at all?

After muttering to himself like this, the dragon, which had become somewhat interested, sat up and its expression became a little more serious.

Immediately afterwards, without any visible movement, the camera angle of the stone fortress where Yersen and the others were located began to zoom in rapidly.

—We are getting closer and closer to the location where Yerson and the others are in contact with Brand!

However, after getting close enough, the dragon frowned slightly.

With this action, the scene in front of it suddenly blurred and then disappeared!
After that, it pondered with some surprise and said:
"They actually found out? Countermeasures?"
And someone is trying to track my location?
Awesome!

As he said this, the black dragon once again lay down lazily, and the scene that had just disappeared reappeared.

It was still the fortress where Yersen and the others were located.

However, this time, the camera angle was much wider than before.

At the same time, the location of the simulated world and the space teleportation array.

Looking at the complex data displayed on the screen in front of him, Brand frowned and said:
"No, the spatial fluctuations are too weak."

There was a brief moment of increased power, but the opponent quickly stopped it.

Could it be that we've been discovered?
All traces have now completely disappeared…

After searching for a while, but finding nothing unusual near Yersen and the others, they finally discovered that...

Brand pondered and guessed:
"Could it be Mr. Candrus?"
