Chapter 866: Chapter 434: Return to the Holy City

Long Dangdang said, "Yes, I have found Calamity City and successfully infiltrated it. I observed some of the situations inside and am prepared to report to you."

As soon as these words were uttered, all the Sacred Legates in the venue were shocked, and Xuan Hanyan even couldn’t help asking, "You entered Calamity City? How did you get in?"

It must be noted that previously, the Federation had dispatched a large number of demon hunting teams to attempt infiltration into the Wraith Kingdom. However, the situation in the Wraith Kingdom is extremely complicated. First of all, the element attribute of the Wraith Kingdom has changed and is not suitable for human cultivation; after entering, supply becomes an issue. Furthermore, the blood and energy fluctuations of humans are completely different from those of wraiths, while powerful wraiths possess extraordinarily strong spiritual power. When encountering the spiritual scanning of powerful wraiths, the dense blood and energy of human powerful experts are almost impossible to hide. To penetrate the Wraith Kingdom, especially to enter the cities of the Wraith Kingdom, is extremely difficult.

Just like when Long Dangdang suddenly encountered a spiritual scan from a powerful wraith in that undead city—as it is a common occurrence in the Wraith Kingdom, conducted to detect human infiltration into the Wraith World. Under the spiritual scanning, human blood and energy are basically impossible to conceal.

Therefore, even if a 9th Rank powerful expert of humanity infiltrates the Wraith Kingdom, it is very difficult for them to make any progress, and once they are discovered after reaching a certain depth, it is very difficult to escape. Consequently, the Federation’s exploration of the Wraith Kingdom has always been very limited, let alone finding Calamity City. This is clearly evident from the map previously obtained by Long Dangdang.

And now, Long Dangdang claimed that he successfully entered Calamity City, which undeniably had extraordinary significance for the Federation.

"Yes, Sacred Legates, I have successfully entered Calamity City this time," Long Dangdang began recounting his experiences upon entering the Wraith Kingdom. The Earth escape shuttle, Deception Fruit, combined with ultra-long-distance teleportation, and his disguise as a wraith, participating in the Prince Consort selection with his mount partner, the Evil Eye Tyrant, by absorbing Soul Stones to mask his own aura, were all mentioned once.

Listening to his account, all the Sacred Legates were deeply moved. Undoubtedly, Long Dangdang’s venture into the Wraith Kingdom without prior authorization surely breached the rules. However, from another perspective, he actually took on a great deal of demon hunting team exploration tasks for the Wraith Kingdom prior to his entry. From the perspective of a demon hunter, there wasn’t much of a problem. It could even be said that he went into the Wraith Kingdom to carry out his demon hunter tasks!

Moreover, the information he gathered far surpassed what previous demon hunting teams had acquired. It can be said that his explorations played an extremely important role in the Federation’s understanding of the Wraith World.

Whether it was the order within the Wraith Kingdom, the state of the cities, the exact location of Calamity City, or even the existence of Mithril Castle—all of this was brand new intelligence.

"..., in the final selection, I was not chosen, and it was then that I faintly sensed my parents’ bloodline aura. It was also at that time that I revealed my identity. I was besieged by powerful wraiths. Drawn by bloodline tracing, my younger brother was teleported to my side. He helped me hold off the enemies and allowed me to complete the teleportation array formation. My Undiscovered Grotto Spirit Furnace, in its 1st Rank state, could only teleport one person at a time. I originally intended to teleport him away, but he was knocked into the teleportation array formation, returning to the Blessed Sun military camp. My brother’s life or death is unknown."

By the end of his story, Long Dangdang’s eyes had also dimmed, and in fact, only this last part was fabricated. Everything else he narrated before was true. What he concealed was the situation of his family.

Upon hearing Long Dangdang’s narration about the Wraith Kingdom, the Sacred Legates present fell into deep thought. There was no doubt that the news Long Dangdang brought back was extremely valuable. Especially now that the human armies had already started the war with the Wraith Kingdom, this was of critical importance for humans to understand the Wraith World and even for subsequent penetrations into the Wraith Kingdom.

An orderly Wraith Kingdom undoubtedly raised a strong alarm among the senior ranks of the Federation. Organized and orderly, it seemed truly like a nation. The development of the Wraith Kingdom also possessed advantages that humans did not have. Deceased human warriors, human powerful experts, could almost be termed as resources for the development of the Wraith Kingdom. Once the power comparison between the two sides reaches a tipping point, the overthrow of the entire human world would be inevitable.

"The message you’ve brought back is too important. I believe that Dangdang’s actions this time are not only without fault but are actually meritorious," Xuan Hanyan said gravely.

Long Kongkong falling into the Wraith Kingdom was undoubtedly a great loss for the Knights Temple, but if one truly compares the gains and losses, was it worth it to exchange Long Kongkong for such valuable information? If setting aside emotions and merely comparing the benefits, it was undoubtedly worth it. This was almost equivalent to the mystical world of the wraiths opening up to the Temple Federation. This had extraordinarily significant implications for the series of military operations that would follow.

Xi Che also nodded and said, "Dangdang, the information you’ve brought back is too important. You must immediately compile this information, including the maps you have explored. Submit them to the Command Department, and at the same time, to the demon hunting team. We need to update our intelligence on the Wraith Kingdom. Your reconnaissance alone has surpassed all other demon hunting teams. I will represent the military and ensure that the demon hunting team gives you ample rewards. I also believe that while your actions may have been rash, from the outcome perspective, they are commendable. You were both brave and resourceful in your infiltration of the Wraith Kingdom. You truly deserve the title of champion of this year’s Great Impartation Contest."
