Chapter 647: New dungeon core
Both Rokuko and Lin Fan were surprised by what Weiss said, but then Lin Fan turned to look carefully at the image that he had formed.
As he looked closely at it, he came to one conclusion.
"Un, I have no idea where this is."
That was what he thought in his mind as he looked at the magic image in front of him.
This god really was asking the impossible of him.
Just showing him a single image and not telling him where this place was…was he really expecting Lin Fan to find this place himself?
How was he supposed to find a mountain just from seeing it once like this?
There were countless mountains like this that were all over the world and to find one specific one just based on an image was close to impossible. Unless there was something else, it would take forever for Lin Fan to find this place.
By that time, he was certain that someone else would have found the dungeon core first and would have taken it before him.
But was Weiss going to give him anything else?
No, it was clear by the look on his face that Weiss thought that this was more than enough for Lin Fan to do this favour for him.
If it was any other time, Lin Fan might not have said anything…but he just couldn't remain silent like this. If he remained silent, there was no doubt that he would have an impossible task forced onto him.
So Lin Fan had to say something.
"Um, Sir Weiss, is there any other information that you have for me? Or is this image the only thing that you have on the location of this new dungeon core?" Lin Fan said in a slow voice.
Weiss looked at him with a confused look at first before asking, "Is there anything else that you need?"
Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a bitter smile when he heard this.
Gods really didn't have any common sense at all, did they?
Lin Fan said with a sigh, "With just this, I won't be able to find the location of the new dungeon core. If possible, can you give a concrete location to search?"
Weiss looked at me with one raised brow and a confused look, as if he couldn't understand what I was saying. But then, there was a look of understanding that slowly appeared on his face.
As that look appeared on his face, he said, "Oh right, you humans aren't capable of searching for things through the magic network. Unless you're told directly where things are, it'll take you forever to find things."
A bitter smile appeared on Lin Fan's face when he heard this, but that was the end of it.
Weiss just shook his head and said with a sigh, "You humans really are troublesome. All you have to do is tap into the underlying magic network of the world and find the disturbance created, how hard is that?"
The way that he said it made it seem like it was a simple task.
However, if one listened carefully to the words that he said, the things that he described were anything but normal.
It was hard to tell what this magic network of the world he mentioned was, but it wasn't hard to understand that this had to be something very powerful.
This was not something that normal humans should have access to, it should only be the most powerful magicians that had access to this.
Not to mention, Lin Fan wasn't a magician in the first place, but rather a cultivator.
"Cultivator, magician, it's all really the same. All you're doing is manipulating the energy around you to affect the world. This is fundamentally what magic and cultivation is." Weiss suddenly said this while Lin Fan was still in thought.
The moment that Lin Fan heard this, he was shocked.
That's right, this person in front of him was a god…
There really was no use trying to hide one's thoughts from a god since they would be able to see through his mind…
"That's right, you shouldn't underestimate gods." Weiss suddenly said with a smile on his face.
The bitter smile on Lin Fan's face became even more bitter as he said, "Can you please not read my mind like this?"
Weiss gave a nod, but he still had to say, "This is something that comes naturally for gods. Asking me to not do this is like asking humans not to breathe, you know?"
Lin Fan shook his head with the same bitter smile before saying, "Then can you please stop exposing me at the very least?"
Weiss gave a nod before waving his hand to pull a piece of paper out of thin air.
He then put that piece of paper on the table in front of him and just waited, as if he wanted Lin Fan to take it.
Lin Fan raised a brow to look at Weiss, but Weiss didn't do anything as he just sat there like he was waiting.
So in the end, Lin Fan took that piece of paper to look at.
He found that it was a map, but not just any map…this was a detailed map of the area around Dungeon City with a location that was clearly marked.
However, this map was actually much more detailed than the one that Yue Lan had ever shown him…
As expected of the gods…
That was the only thing that he could think of.
Once he received this map, Lin Fan was certain that he would be able to find the place where the new dungeon core had spawned. But there was also something that he wanted to ask.
"Why is there a new dungeon core that suddenly spawned on the cultivation continent? Why would it not spawn on the magic continent?"
This time, Weiss shook his head to show that he didn't know as he said, "This is a matter that even eludes me. I just felt the sudden connection form with this new dungeon core as it was formed. Then when I looked around the surroundings of the dungeon core, I wasn't able to find anything strange that would induce the formation of a dungeon core. It was almost as if…someone had induced it."
Lin Fan slowly began understanding what Weiss was implying.
Indeed, this wasn't just a favour.
The ability to create dungeon cores was most likely a power that only the gods had. Specifically, this was a power that was controlled by Weiss since he was the one that created the dungeon core system.
So if there was someone encroaching on his territory, he would naturally want to get to the bottom of it.
Helping a god with a favour like this wasn't bad for him.
First, there was a chance to obtain another dungeon core which would help Lin Fan greatly in the future. Especially since it would allow him to make Dungeon City even bigger and stronger than before.
Second, the fact that someone might be able to induce the power of the god of magic and create dungeon cores…that was not a good thing for him. If that was the case, he needed to find that person as soon as possible and either take care of them or seal that power of theirs.
Finally, a favour from the god of magic Weiss was worth its weight in gold. This was something that would always be worth it.
So Lin Fan said with a nod, "I'll find this dungeon core and see if there is anything strange about it."
Weiss gave a nod before saying, "The dungeon core has already formed a dungeon, so you'll most likely have to break through that dungeon to find it. As well…"
He went on to list all kinds of things about the dungeon core that he really didn't need to tell Lin Fan.
However, it seemed like he was saying it more for himself rather than for Lin Fan.
He was saying it as if he was reporting on everything about this new dungeon core that formed.
Lin Fan had no choice but to sit there and listen to him as he listed all the facts about this dungeon core.
When it was over, Weiss said, "Anyway, have fun with it. It doesn't seem like anything dangerous, so you can do what you think is right."
Without even waiting for a response from either Lin Fan or Rokuko, Weiss just waved his hand and said, "Alright, I'll send you back now."
Neither of them could say a thing as the scene in front of them changed.
When it finished changing, they found that they were in the same room as before.
When Weiss pulled them away, they had been in the hidden room with the other girls.
Seeing the two of them suddenly appear, the girls quickly came forward to make sure that they were alright.
After doing this, Yue Lan asked in a serious voice, "What happened? Where did you go just now? You just suddenly disappeared into thin air!"
Lin Fan had a bitter smile on his face when he heard this.
He had already expected this to happen, but there was a small part of him that had been hoping that Weiss would have taken care of it.
Since he didn't, he had to make up an excuse.
After all, Lin Fan couldn't just say that he had been having a meeting with a god, right?
They would have definitely thought that he was crazy and had someone check his brain.
