117: Mount Agin

Han Huohuo was stunned. This was actually a Hero with both internal affairs and war attributes. Reconnaissance was clearly a combat skill, but Rare Treasures was definitely an internal affairs skill.

Moreover, the rare mineral deposits usually mentioned in this world only included abyss crystal, radiant gem, fire sea sulfur, and ice field mercury. Sophia's skill also included black oil and radioactive elements.

Mu Jiu increases all mineral deposits by 100%.

Sophia only targets rare mineral deposits, but the increase is even greater!

"How should I address you from now on, King? Your Highness? Or... um..." Sophia wrapped her arms around Han Huohuo's arm, her soft chest brushing against him.

Holy crap, Han Huohuo almost had a nosebleed. He quickly said, "Just call me Lord, like them."

"Lord? Hmm, I like that address. Just now, I heard you talking to our Chieftain about Hagg?"

Han Huohuo looked at the enthusiastic young girl beside him and asked curiously, "You know Hagg?"

Sophia nodded, "Of course I know. Hagg is actually not from our Kelu Tribe, but from another world. His world is called Enroth."

Han Huohuo scratched his head, "How do you know so much?"

Sophia hugged Han Huohuo's arm tighter, leaned into his ear, and whispered, "Because Hagg is my ancestor! He married a Gru woman, who was my great-great-grandmother. I have some of Hagg's bloodline!"

Han Huohuo suddenly understood. No wonder this girl came to find him to dance; she probably heard him mention Hagg.

"My ancestor Hagg came from Aijin Mountain. Aijin Mountain is a mysterious place."

Han Huohuo suddenly froze.

Something's wrong!

There's a serious problem.

If Hagg was a Lord from outside the domain, then how could his remains still exist? What about his crystal?

If his crystal was broken, shouldn't he have been erased from this world?

Could that corpse not be Hagg?

But that doesn't make sense either. Everything on his hand proves that it was Hagg's skeleton?

Could it be!

Could it be that although Hagg died unexpectedly, his crystal was still intact?

He was a Five-Rotation Hero. Wouldn't his crystal decay?

"Can you take me to Aijin Mountain to see where Hagg appeared back then?" Han Huohuo turned and asked Sophia.

Sophia grinned, "You're not like those people who covet Eakin's treasure, are you?"

Han Huohuo's heart raced, "Eakin's treasure?"

Sophia smiled, "That's right. Many people have searched for Eakin's treasure for hundreds of years. Legend has it that Hagg hid all his treasures in a secret treasure called Eakin's Treasure. But later, no one found that place. Eventually, everyone gave up searching, and it became a legend."

Han Huohuo tilted his head, looking at the lightly smiling girl. It was clear that Sophia hadn't finished speaking.

"I know where Eakin's secret chamber is. That treasure really exists, but... it's very strange. I can sense the treasure, but I can't find it. There's a particularly strange feeling there."

Sophia widened her eyes, looking at Han Huohuo. She felt his heart beating fast, wondering if it was because her chest was rubbing against him, or if he had heard about Eakin's Treasure.

Or perhaps both.

"How about... you take me to see it tomorrow?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you," Sophia said softly.

A chill went down his spine.

Then Sophia turned around and saw a female General staring at her with unfriendly eyes.

"This is General Hua Mulan."

Sophia completely ignored Hua Mulan, directly overlooking her. She turned back, just holding Han Huohuo's arm, and enthusiastically chatted in a low voice with the handsome Lord Barbarian King.

Hua Mulan's eyes were burning with raging fire from being angered!

Then Han Huohuo, unable to hold his liquor, was carried into the tent.

When Sophia snuck to the tent entrance under the cover of night, she found that Hua Mulan was still awake, holding a spear, standing guard at the entrance.

"Sister, aren't you going to sleep yet?"

"Scram!"

For some reason, Hua Mulan extremely disliked Sophia and spoke very impolitely.

Sophia was so angry she stomped her foot, but seeing the long spear in Hua Mulan's hand, she knew she couldn't win. Her little face turned pale, and she returned dejectedly.

Han Huohuo had a nightmare that night.

He dreamt that the gods gave him a beautiful dress, but it was stolen by a devil.

He woke up the next day with a slight headache.

He went out and saw Hua Mulan still guarding outside the door. Feeling guilty, he smiled and said, "You've worked hard. It's actually very safe here with the mechanical guards. You don't need to stand guard here."

Hua Mulan rolled her eyes at him.

It was clearly a look of disdain, which made Han Huohuo pause. What kind of look was that? What did it mean?

It seemed like she wasn't worried about the mechanical guards, but about him?

What's wrong with me?

Hua Mulan thought to herself, 'Of course I know the mechanical guards are reliable, but don't the mechanical guards all listen to you!'

'I'm watching you, you idiot!'

For some reason, Han Huohuo felt from Hua Mulan's eyes that he seemed to have lost a hundred million last night.

The weather is really good. Summer has arrived.

Even the Northern Darkness Wasteland has turned green.

This is the best season in the Wasteland.

Sophia wanted to take Han Huohuo to climb Aijin Mountain.

Aijin Mountain is just a very inconspicuous small branch of the huge Northern Mountain range, a small mountain.

But the mountain is rocky, and not to mention Armored Vehicles, even warhorses can't go up.

Sophia originally said she would take Han Huohuo to hike up the mountain.

Han Huohuo smiled slightly, "No need!"

Then he blew a whistle.

A huge black figure appeared in the sky. With a terrifying eagle cry, Northern Darkness flew over from high in the sky.

The Kelu Tribe people were so scared they thought a divine bird had appeared, and a crowd of people knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Northern Darkness grew very fast, and its body was already very large now. Han Huohuo pulled Sophia and Hua Mulan onto Northern Darkness's back together.

He gently patted it.

Northern Darkness spread its wings and flew up.

A violent gust of wind instantly reached the sky, and in no time, it flew over Aijin Mountain.

"This... mountain... is a bit strange?"

Looking down from the air, Aijin Mountain was blurry, and even its shadow was unclear.

It was particularly strange.

Sophia explained, "Aijin Mountain is very strange. Sometimes it will suddenly disappear from the ground for a period of time, and sometimes many illusions will appear. That's why the people here say it's a divine mountain."

Hua Mulan pouted, "That's called a mirage, purely caused by the climate. It's a very common phenomenon in the desert. Don't be so superstitious."

Sophia made a face.

Han Huohuo was also helpless.

He had to let Northern Darkness land on the mountaintop, and the three of them jumped down together.

He patted Northern Darkness, "Baby, go play by yourself. I'll call you later, and then you can come down and pick us up."

Northern Darkness tilted its head and rubbed against Han Huohuo, then spread its wings and flew back into the sky.
