Many people had seen this temple in a previous life, yet only one person ever managed to enter it. That person had been an ordinary player. After coming out, he skyrocketed in strength and eventually reached the divine tier. He only revealed this secret after becoming a divine. According to him, the reason he could enter the Lost Temple was that he had received guidance from a long-lost race. He never explained which race it was or what exactly lay within the temple. Judging from the situation now, it seems to be related to the old divines. "Even the Lost Temple? Nighthale, you really do know a lot." Sophia's bright eyes shimmered as she praised him. Steven was speechless. I'm the one who suggested both the method and the temple. Why are you praising him? Whose side are you on?"Sophia, I'm the one who brought up the Lost Temple. That was my idea." He sounded irritated. "And I know plenty of other things. There's nothing special about that." "Then, do you know where the temple is, Uncle Steven?" Sophia asked, curious. "As for this..." Steven fell silent for a moment. "I just remembered I forgot to turn off the gas when I left the house. We'll talk later." He ended the call without hesitation. 'Ding! You have accepted the class advancement quest: "Search for the Lost Temple."' A system notification chimed. "So, it really is that quest," Aiden murmured, deep in thought. Being a player had its advantages—you could learn things that NPCs couldn't, just by looking at the quests. Still, he didn't have a single lead. "A lost race?" Aiden thought silently. There were countless races on the continent, but those that could truly be called a lost race were extremely rare. And without exception, they had been around since ancient times. As far as Aiden knew, there were only two: the Elves and the Dwarves. As for the dragons, he wasn't sure if they counted. But the Inferno Dragon and the Radiant Dragon were nowhere to be found, so there was no way to get any information about them. "Don't be discouraged. I'm sure you'll figure something out." At the sight of Nighthale going quiet, Sophia thought he might be feeling down. She spoke gently to comfort him, "You've already created so many miracles, haven't you?" "You're right." Aiden smiled. Indeed, even with the experience and knowledge from a previous life, finding a lost race was no easy task. Besides, this wasn't something they could search for actively—the chances were just too random. At least the class advancement quest had been activated. That gave him a clear goal.Everything else could be handled step by step. As long as their minds stayed sharp, there were always more solutions than problems. They knew that they should just go for it. ... After leaving the duke's estate, Aiden didn't rush out of the city. Compared to leveling up, he had more important things to take care of right now. The twelfth day of Doomsday would bring the first eerie intrusion. That is… tomorrow! Facing this terrifying catastrophe, Aiden had to be fully prepared. He pulled the Hall of Supremes token from his inventory. "Hey! Merrick? Are you there?" At the same time, inside the Hall of Supremes, Merrick, clad in a deep blue mage's robe with his hood up, lounged in a rocking chair, soaking up the sun. After receiving news about the Fountain of Holy Spirits, he wasted no time rushing to the location. After some effort, he finally completed the last piece of the crucial item. Now, both his power and his status had been further elevated. Honestly, Merrick was thrilled! It was just that some of the twists and turns along the way were not exactly pleasant to recall, especially the encounter with the Inferno Dragon. The escape had gone pretty smoothly, but if he'd been even half a second slower, he could've been crushed by a forbidden spell. He had no intention of going through that again, but still… He'd heard that after the two dragons showed up in Leafporta a few days ago, they hadn't been seen since. Knowing how dragons were, they'd probably just moved on. If he wanted to see dragons again, it wasn't going to be easy! "As long as your heart is in it, the dream is alive—if it fails, just start over again…" Humming his little motivational tune, Merrick was in an incredibly good mood. This kind of carefree day—that was what life was all about! He was loving it! "Hey! Merrick? Are you there?"At that moment, the communication token suddenly buzzed. Hearing that incredibly familiar voice, Merrick nearly choked. No wonder his right eyelid had been twitching all day—it must have something to do with this troublemaker! Just thinking about the likely headache he was about to face made him seriously consider tossing the token away. Still, after a moment's hesitation, he answered. "Kid, what's up?" His voice carried a hint of chill. There was no helping it... "I've got a small favor I need your help with." Aiden's voice came through. "Of course—just like the last two times, there'll be payment." Merrick frowned, instinctively sensing something was off. He asked cautiously, "Which unlucky dragon's lair have you stumbled onto this time?"
