Chapter 2569. Clown Tattoo
Han Sen picked up the tools and headed toward the swimming pool. He didn’t mind working. By doing this, he’d be able to walk around the whole fortress, which might give him the opportunity to find something. Right now, he was quite curious about the nature of the location he had ended up in.
Exquisite and Li Keer were aware of what Han Sen wanted. So, they reluctantly picked up their tools and went with him. But before they exited the immediate area, the small Crocodile God stopped them. It lifted a clawed hand to point at the rubbish scattered across the beach. It wanted them to clean up the beach area first.
Han Sen exited the swimming pool with the toolbox in hand. The Crocodile God didn’t follow him. He wasn’t in a rush to clean, so he took the chance to walk around the fortress while he was able to.
The fortress was in poor condition. Most of the machinery had been destroyed in whatever cataclysmic event had ended the life of this place. Even when he saw a machine that wasn’t broken, Han Sen had no clue what all the gadgets and gizmos were supposed to do, anyway.
Strangely, though, aside from the demon crocodiles in the canisters, he hadn’t seen any other bodies. He couldn’t even find any long-forgotten bones.
“Judging from the way the buildings and equipment is all broken, this place must have come under fire from a hail of meteors. But why can I not see what rained down on the place?”
As Han Sen continued to think about the problem, he went back to the plaza with the crystal canisters. He had settled on investigating that place first.
The demon crocodiles there exhibited no semblance of a lifeforce. Inside those broken canisters, there was nothing. There were no bodies, and whatever liquid they might once have contained had all dried up, not leaving a single drop of the stuff behind.
