Chapter 846: Intelligence Support from Yuanshang
When Shao Yun rode his horse, left the Huayu Club and headed for the Holy Fire Arena, his thoughts did not fade away with the sound of horse hooves.
Instead, he began to carefully analyze the attack on Huayu Society by the Abyss just now.
While thinking, Shao Yun recalled what the God of Fire and the God of Wind had said.
All signs indicate that Nata is indeed in an extremely dangerous situation now.
"What should I do?" Shao Yun muttered to himself, "I must use all the strength I can..."
Recalling what happened just now, Shao Yun couldn't help but feel a little scared.
If he had not happened to be shooting floating balloons with Chaska and noticed the gathering of abyss monsters, the consequences would have been disastrous.
“That was a close call!” Shao Yun sighed inwardly, “The abyss is in the dark, and we are in the light. We will be too passive if we continue like this…”
When thinking about this intelligence problem, Shao Yun thought of Yuan Shang who had been on standby. Yes, how could he forget about him.
"Oh, right! Yuanshang!" Shao Yun shouted excitedly, "How could I forget about him?"
He is a high-level monster of the Abyss Cult, there must be a way.
Shao Yun quickly stopped his horse and called out to the air around him: "Yuan Shang, where are you?"
After a while, Shao Yun heard Yuan Shang's slightly anxious voice.
"Wait a minute, I'm a little busy here."
However, before Shao Yun could respond, another little boy's voice came.
"Big brother, who are you talking to?"
Hearing this voice, Yuan Shang's voice became noticeably nervous.
"Big brother has something to do, so I'll excuse myself for a moment."
Do your best, a little girl's dissatisfied voice came.
"Big brother, didn't you say you would help us find our lost little Nephrodite?"
Yuan Shang's voice sounded apologetic. He said, "Big brother will come to help in a while. I'm leaving now."
The little boy's dissatisfied voice came, shouting: "Big brother, you lied, you will be burned to ashes!"
……
After a long while, Yuan Shang hurriedly came to Shao Yun, looking exhausted.
Yuan Shang panted heavily and said with a gasp, "I'm here, I'm here, is there anything you want me to do?"
Shao Yun did not immediately state his request, but looked at Yuan Shang with interest, and then asked: "What were you doing just now? Why did I hear a child's voice? Who were you talking to just now?"
Yuan Shang seemed a little embarrassed when Shao Yun asked him this.
He smiled awkwardly and explained unconfidently, "Oh, that... I was just chatting with Duoba and Huni from the Xuanmu tribe. I just wanted to learn something from them..."
Shao Yun was immediately interested when he heard this. He raised his chin and asked curiously, "Oh? So what did you learn?"
Seeing that Shao Yun was interested in this topic, Yuanshang smiled and began to share the humanistic intelligence he had collected in Nata, or to be more precise, the information about the Hanging Wood Man.
"I learned a lot about Kinichi, as well as the customs of the Hanging Wood People's Tempering Night," Yuanshang said proudly.
However, Shao Yun was not particularly interested in the history of the Hanging Wood Man and his expression was a little cold.
After all, he is not an archaeologist...
Seeing this, Yuan Shang quickly changed his words and said, "However, I think that what you care about most is Kinich. He was so miserable when he was a child..."
Yuan Shang had an exaggerated expression on his face. He told the story with great excitement and gestured from time to time, interpreting Kinich's childhood story vividly and even adding fuel to the fire!
It is nine true and one false...
"Kiniqi's father is a super gambler. He is addicted to gambling all day long. He lost all the family money and the house. He also beats his wife and children for no reason!"
"His mother couldn't stand this kind of life and ran away from home."
"When Kinich was seven years old, his gambling father fell to his death!"
"Poor Kinich has become a helpless little tramp."
"Compared to you, Kinich's father, he is not a human being! A beast!"
"Besides, Kinich once raised a little dragon! Unfortunately, the little dragon left him for various reasons, which caused great trauma to his little heart."
Yuan Shang sighed and continued, "A gambling dad, a runaway mom, a wandering Xiaolong, and a broken him.
"He lost his father at the age of seven, and his mother at the age of six. He is exactly like the protagonist of the Inazuma light novel!"
After telling the story of Kinich, Yuanshang still felt it was not enough, and enthusiastically introduced Aqiao to Shao Yun.
"Oh, and there's A-Jiao beside him! This creature called A-Jiao is sealed in a mysterious wrist seal on Kinich's wrist. Normally, it can only reveal its appearance through phlogiston."
"According to the information I have, he is a dragon from Nata ten thousand years ago. According to the information I have, his real name should be 'A. Awacho. Kumulekan. Ku. Leir'."
"It's a pity that there is no way to confirm the authenticity of this information. If I can find the sacred mountain in the dragon clan's legend... hehe, then all the truth will be revealed to the world!"
When he thought of this, Yuanshang couldn't help but smile like a pervert.
For him, knowledge is the greatest temptation!
Shao Yun looked at Yuan Shang's infatuated expression, which made him feel physically disgusted. He couldn't help but complain:
"Are you here for archaeology?"
Yuan Shang came to his senses after hearing Shao Yun's words, quickly restrained his smile, pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, revealed a shrewd look, and slowly said:
"Knowledge is very important. That's why I can become a popular person around His Royal Highness and outperform those simple-minded and strong-limbed colleagues."
Shao Yun quite agreed with this point.
Yuan Shang's knowledge and wisdom are truly admirable. Moreover, when it comes to the ways of the world, Yuan Shang has unique insights and ways of dealing with things, which is beyond doubt.
After all, even Apep was convinced by his eloquent words...
"Well, what you said makes sense." Shao Yun nodded in agreement.
"However, I am not very interested in Kinich's life experience and the chattering yellow-green existence beside him. I came to you to discuss something serious."
When Yuanshang saw that Shao Yun wanted to talk about serious matters, he immediately changed his previous funny look and became serious.
He cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, um...is there anything you need my help with?"
Shao Yun revealed his immature idea to Yuan Shang and said:
"Can you do me a favor and use your Abyss Network, or some other method, to provide me with some information about the Abyss' invasion of Nata?"
When Yuan Shang heard Shao Yun's request, he couldn't help but look embarrassed and took a breath.
No, I didn’t hear it wrong, how can I help you?
He stroked his chin and muttered to himself, "Detecting the movement of the Abyss invading Nata? This is a bit difficult..."
Seeing this, Shao Yun nodded quickly and further explained: "I know this may be a bit troublesome, but you are a member of the Abyss Cult and an Abyss Chanter of high-level monsters!"
"This little thing shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"
Although Yuanshang had some doubts in his heart, the Abyss is one thing and the Abyss Cult is another.
Even if Yuan Shang had no other options, he would definitely not refuse, because the task assigned to him by His Royal Highness the Prince was to help Shao Yun.
Then I must put my work of collecting historical documents on hold for a while.
……
It is worth mentioning that after Yuan Shang was resurrected, he studied related matters with Kong on the way to Nata to support Shao Yun.
After some discussion, they came up with a speculation that, although logically plausible, lacked solid evidence.
That is, the reason why Wendy kidnapped Ying, Paimon and Shao Yun's daughter "Xi" was not only to threaten Shao Yun to save Nata, but also to weaken the Abyss Cult...
After all, Kong would definitely not allow his good brother-in-law to go alone, so he would definitely send members of the Abyss Cult to assist.
It can be said that it is hero against hero, good man against good man, and abyss against "abyss".
This plan is really vicious...
But I didn’t expect that the Abyss Cult would not buy it and instead took Mond as a hostage!
However, all of this is just based on speculation. As for whether Fengshen really has this intention, that is another matter...
……
After a little thought, Yuanshang agreed to Shao Yun's request to act as a "spy" of the "Abyss" and steal its movements.
"Well... OK, I'll try my best to do this, but I really can't guarantee that I can detect much valuable information."
"After all, as I said before, the Abyss and our Abyss Cult are two completely different concepts."
Then Yuan Shang kindly reminded Shao Yun of a piece of not-so-bizarre knowledge.
"Also, you should know that the holy fire burning in the Holy Fire Arena is something that the Abyss fears... So, you should understand what I mean..."
Shao Yun naturally understood what Yuan Shang meant and replied, "I know this. I can't use the communication network of the Abyss Cult to establish contact around the Holy Fire Arena, right?"
Yuan Shang nodded quickly and said in a very lively manner: "Yes, yes, that's it!"
"So sometimes if I don't respond to you in time, it's definitely not because I'm absent-minded or lazy, but the influence of the Holy Fire!"
Seeing Yuan Shang's somewhat eccentric expression, Shao Yun couldn't help but laugh and encouraged him, "Haha, it's okay, I believe in your ability! Come on!"
Yuan Shang was immediately cheered up by Shao Yun's encouragement. He raised his fist high to cheer himself up and vowed:
"Okay! For the sake of your royal highness' blood relatives, I will definitely do my best!"

[You have obtained intelligence support from Yuanshang. ]
[With the support of the Abyss, you can get the movement of the Abyss invading Nata in real time. ]
[When necessary, you can also let the Abyss implant false commands to reduce the number of enemies or delay the Abyss's invasion of a certain location.]
[However, please use this ability with caution, because the Abyss is not easy to fool. Once discovered, you will most likely lose intelligence support for a period of time. Being blind is not a good thing. ]
[Note: When you are around the Holy Fire Arena, you cannot communicate with Yuan Shang. ]
