My incarnation is becoming a global calamity.

Su Tu glanced at the church ruins that were gradually disappearing from sight behind him, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

When he walked into the bushes just now, he could clearly see a shadow on the ground through the moonlight.

If it had been Rhys who went to investigate, that person would probably have been wiped out in an instant.

Fortunately, it was him who went there, which indirectly saved that person's life and the reconnaissance team's plan.

Withdrawing his gaze, Su Tu silently observed Rhys not far away, secretly on guard.

The opponent's magical artifacts posed a significant threat, so he had to be careful.

Throughout the journey, he had to remain vigilant at all times, guarding against any sudden attacks from the enemy.

Of course, Rhys will most likely not make a move against him before entering the secret realm.

But what if?

What if this illogical guy suddenly attacks you?

Su Tu wouldn't gamble with his life.

The best approach is to remain vigilant at all times.

As Su Tu pondered, he tugged at the brim of his top hat. Beneath the hat, his deep eyes remained fixed on Rhys.

......

The map hidden by Ashir was purchased by Su Tu from Ries.

As the seller, Rhys naturally knew the location of the hidden treasure.

So he never took out the map from the church ruins to the entrance of the Ashir's Secret Treasury.

From this perspective, the only purpose of him spending 100 gold coins seems to be to complete the mission.

Standing at the corner of a house, Su Tu looked up at the densely packed guards not far away, his expression calm.

"How are we going to get in?"

Upon arriving here, Su Tu immediately recognized that this was the place where he had been "baptized" a year ago.

If the main body comes tomorrow, he doesn't need to worry about these guards.

I reckon all I need to do is show my face, and these people will obediently let me through.

Unfortunately, he has come in an incarnation now, and the time is not tomorrow.

If you want to get in, you only have two options.

We either have to force our way in or sneak in secretly.

"Come with me, I know a robbery tunnel."

A tomb robber's hole?

Su Tu looked at Rhys, who turned around without hesitation, and a rare look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He also had a bold guess about the Holy Land of the Empire.

After glancing once more at the guards not far away, Su Tu silently followed Rhys.

Before long, the two arrived at a thicket in the woods on the side of the holy site.

There were only a few trees around this thicket, and further ahead was a rock face.

Before Su Tu could react, he saw Rhys push aside the bushes, dig a hole, and take out a box from it.

Then, he took the box, walked to the rock wall, and reached out to feel around.

Seeing his practiced manner, Su Tu knew that this was clearly not his first time here.

Even this so-called tomb robber's hole might have been dug by this guy himself.

"alright."

Rhys's voice came, and Su Tu's gaze followed.

The once smooth cliff face now has a hole.

The most outrageous thing is that the opening was even made into a small door out of wooden planks.

The door's color is very similar to the cliff face, and its location is very remote; it would be difficult to find unless you were specifically looking for it.

The opening is also very small.

Su Tu roughly estimated that there was only enough room for one person to lie down and crawl inside.

Anyone who's even slightly overweight can only stay outside for fresh air.

As for the box that Rhys had just taken out, it had already been thrown on the ground.

Instead, there was an extra key on the lock of the cave entrance.

"Go in."

Rhys's voice was calm, as if he was used to this kind of thing.

This piqued Su Tu's interest in what exactly this so-called heritage merchant did.

After Rhys crawled into the hole, a voice reminded him, and Su Tu then lay down on the ground and followed him in.

Behind the cave entrance is a narrow, low passageway.

Even though Su Tu's clone was relatively thin, he could only move forward by crouching down.

"Take the key out and close the door."

Upon hearing Rhys's words, Su Tu did not hesitate much and did as he was told.

The moment the door closed, the passageway was plunged into complete darkness, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

However, this situation did not last long.

A moment later, a faint light came from Rhys's side.

The light was dim, illuminating only a range of about 4 meters, but that was enough for them to move forward in the passage.

"I'm gone."

After saying this calmly, Rhys crawled forward, holding the faintly glowing crystal ball in one hand.

Su Tu did not immediately follow, but instead used his appraisal ability to investigate the function of the crystal ball while staying in place.

[Modern Crystal Ball (Broken)]

[The 13th Shrine Maiden's Exclusive Magical Tool]

[Rank A Divine Magic Tool]

[It can emit a dim light in dark environments, allowing the user to predict events within the next 10 minutes. During the prediction process, the body will be baptized by sacred fire. Cooldown time: one month.]

Upon seeing the information about the crystal ball, Su Tu immediately remembered.

He had seen this item in Rhys's Future Magic Tool Shop.

However, his appraisal ability had not been upgraded at that time, so he could not view its functions.

I never expected this crystal ball to have such amazing abilities.

Such a magical tool that can predict what will happen in the next 10 minutes is not a good thing for Su Tu.

If Rhys could use this crystal ball to predict the future where Su Tu would use the top hat.

The consequences would be absolutely unbearable for him.

The threat of a trump card lies in the fact that the enemy does not know it.

Once the enemy knows the purpose of their trump card, its deterrent effect will be greatly reduced.

Thinking of this, Su Tu glanced at the crystal ball in Rhys's hand without making a sound, then slowly crawled along, silently following behind Rhys.

The existence of such a crystal ball means that he must not use the Fool's Hat for 10 minutes after Rhys uses the crystal ball.

Or, before he uses the crystal ball, he might use the Fool's Hat to lower his IQ and create an illusion.

If all else fails, we must find a way to get our hands on the crystal ball, or destroy it altogether.

As for which plan to implement, Su Tu felt he couldn't make a decision right now.

Taking it one step at a time is the most appropriate approach right now.

Now, he needs to continue to conceal his true feelings and continue to cooperate with Rhys.

As Su Tu's thoughts raced, the two gradually reached the end of the passage.

Seeing Rhys take out his key and open the small door again, Su Tu understood that he had completed half of his mission.

I crawled through the small hole again, and when I opened my eyes, it was still pitch black.

This time, he came out first, and the darkness was only slightly dispelled by the crystal ball after Rhys crawled in.

However, it's clearly unlikely that it can illuminate the entire field of vision.

"It's so dark now, what should we do next?"

Su Tu spoke calmly, but secretly moved his feet.

He silently observed Rhys through the light emanating from the crystal ball.

Hands are ready.

If Rhys does anything out of the ordinary, he will immediately use the Fool's Hat.

He understands.

The two key moments—entering the ruins and leaving the ruins—are when Rhys is most likely to take action.

He must remain vigilant in order to complete his mission alive and leave this place alive.
