Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Chapter 702 Secret Dungeon

Vale was surprised to hear that Agent Axe had visited the castle once again. After all, they wouldnʼt normally use people as messengers.

After enslaving the two Council members, he was already receiving reports through summoned creatures or other mystical means.

However, there were only a few times when an agent was used to send a message.

ʼIt must be important then…ʼ With that said, he informed Faith to send the Agent in.

As soon as Agent Axe entered, he immediately felt the presence of the Arcanists, who all had an intimidating aura.

ʼAh? What are they doing here?ʼ Agent Axe was shocked as he realized the identity of some of them.

As part of the Bureau, he certainly knew some high-profile individuals in the world of Arcanists. Without a doubt, all these people here had special agents assigned to monitor their movements! They were that high-profile!

Unfortunately, since he wasnʼt a superior or in a position to get reports about them, he had no idea that they were here.

”Interesting… So itʼs true that the Arcane Bureau is connected to the Immortal…” Sir Roland muttered while looking at Agent Axe.

”No wonder theyʼre working hard to stop us from visiting this castle.” Lady Eve couldnʼt help but comment as she recalled the problems she had encountered just to cross the country and visit this territory.

”Theyʼve probably benefited a lot and donʼt want to share the blessings. Itʼs not that surprising.” Ceres added as she only glanced at him before shifting her attention to the private room where Miya and Chad were meeting.

”Itʼs not unexpected for the Bureau to be selfish people. However, Iʼm curious about his visit here. Did they learn that weʼve visited the Immortal and wanted to send us away?” Sir Geoffrey softly said, and it immediately took everyoneʼs attention.

They expressed their opinions, but after a few moments, they also looked at the beautiful woman who had barely entered their senses!

It took them quite a while before they realized that the Agent was being escorted by another person!

ʼThis...ʼ

There was no doubt that she was one of the Immortalʼs subordinates!

ʼWho is this woman?!ʼ Sir Roland was shocked as he realized that the Half-Dragon wasnʼt the Immortalʼs strongest companion!

This was what the others had realized as well!

Chad wasnʼt the best among the Immortalʼs subordinates! It truly opened everyoneʼs eyes.s

Nonetheless, Agent Axe heard their comments about him, so he quickly waved his hand.

”No… No… Itʼs not like that. I didnʼt know the Immortal had a visitor here. Iʼm only here to give an important report. Please continue with your business with him.” Agent Axe immediately explained.

At this time, Sir Roland still wanted to say something, but the Immortal decided to step in.

”I hope that it is indeed an important report. Follow me…” Vale said under his mask.

On the other hand, Agent Axe was curious why the Immortal decided to use a mask…

ʼI guess he wanted to be mysterious in front of these people.ʼ Agent Axe thought, but his eyes landed on Ceres. The Princess of the Milton Kingdom…

ʼAhhh… He didnʼt want to be recognized… I guess even an Immortal has his own concerns.ʼ Agent Axe mused.

Soon, Vale and Agent Axe entered another private room. After they sat down, Faith closed the door behind them, leaving them alone.

”Agent Axe, you know about the rules… What brings you here?” Vale asked.

Agent Axe gulped for a moment before he replied.

”Sir, I have some urgent news and an item for you. Itʼs about a hidden dungeon that has been discovered recently. There is an otherwordly artifact inside, and we need to destroy or take it away. Unfortunately, even the Half-Immortals failed to take it… We are hoping to receive your assistance. You can either have the otherwordly Artifact or destroy it. In case you decide to take it, I have an item that can help you contain the Artifact…” Agent Axe explained without pause.

He took out a small metal box from his pocket and handed it to Vale.

”This is the item. The otherwordly Artifact is a golden key that can fit in his small box. As you can tell, this box is an Immortal Item.” He said.

”Itʼs indeed feels like an Immortal Item…” Vale muttered as he accepted the box and checked it with his senses.

Vale opened the box, and although it seemed just a normal box, it emitted a mysterious and ancient aura as soon as it was opened.

ʼInteresting... This aura... I canʼt be mistaken.ʼ Vale mused.

Furthermore, he got a notification from his Extraction System!

[ Immortal Artifact has been discovered. Would you like to extract it? ]

It wasnʼt a Fragment or a Shard! It was a genuine Immortal Artifact!

Of course, he didnʼt extract it since it would help him store a mysterious object.

”Where did you get this? What does it do?” Vale asked.

Agent Axe shook his head.

”I donʼt know, sir. It probably came from the founders of the Bureau. It may actually possess an unknown ability that we are not aware of. However, we call this Artifact a Prison Box, as it can easily seal any violent Artifacts that we normally encounter... Unfortunately, we canʼt even get close to the otherwordly Artifact, so we canʼt take it away.”

Vale gently nodded as he looked at the Agent.

”Then it must be very dangerous. Where is the dungeon? How do we get there? Why do you have to take or destroy that Artifact anyway?”

Agent Axe helplessly smiled after hearing the last question

”The dungeon is located in a remote and hidden area. It is not on any map or record. Normally, it is only accessible through the help of Sage Merlin or the Overseer. However, the Bureau also has a secret access to it…”

Agent Axe then paused for a moment to take a deep breath before he continued.

”This Dungeon had another name, and itʼs called the Remnant of the Celestial Realm...”
