Chapter 597: Is there a traitor in Frostmoon?
Lunar Distance Force Experimental Design Bureau.
Inside the command center, Han Yu sat in the main seat. Around the round table sat Fufu, the girl, the puppet, and Arecino.
"Regarding Dotole's statement, I think my assumption is correct."
"The disappearance of Rainbow Moon Essence is definitely related to Li Shun. First of all, the Dotore slice that accidentally entered the Dark Abyss must be related to that guy. The slice may have revealed all the secrets of March."
Arecino took the black tea offered by Prognia, who was standing next to the puppet.
"You mean Li Shun wants to keep the essence of March for himself?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze turned to the girl sitting in the chair.
"Then Li Shun's next target is Miss Columbia?" Fu Ningna gave the other person a deep look, after all, they were friends, and her face showed concern.
"Highly likely..." Han Yu said, but then suddenly realized something!
"Give me a moment."
After saying that, Han Yu jumped out of the window, his body transforming into black and white streaks of light as he flew rapidly toward the island where the Son of Frost Moon was located.
...
"Mom, look! It's a shooting star!"
"Silly child, what shooting star could there be in broad daylight?"
In Frostmoon Village, people were busy with their own things; the Wild Hunt riots had recently caused a small-scale attack here as well.
Lauma is leading everyone to rebuild their homes.
"Eh!"
Upon seeing the person appear before her, Lauma was taken aback. "So it's Han Yu."
“I’ve heard about what happened between you and Nefer, and I’m so glad to see you’re alright.”
Han Yu took the water glass handed to him. "Yes, both she and I are fine."
"I have other important business to discuss with Miss Lauma."
Han Yu got straight to the point.
"Please ask, may the moon goddess's blessings always be with you..." Lauma was about to say some words of blessing when she stopped.
Since the moon goddess was indeed often by his side, she couldn't help but smile awkwardly.
Has anything unusual happened recently at the place where the lunar marrow is sealed?
The place where Han Yu mentioned the sealed moon marrow is a location within the Frost Moon Child's territory specifically for enshrining a statue of the moon goddess.
From the original storyline, we know that Rael became the Traveler's blood relative, and the two worked together to open its secret door.
However, due to Han Yu's intervention, Raelil did not succeed, so the moon marrow is still enshrined underground.
"Hmm... I haven't noticed anything unusual, except that some clansmen regularly come in to clean and replace the offerings."
Han Yu suddenly grabbed Lauma's hands, which were as beautiful as jade, and exclaimed, "Oh no!"
Before the latter could react, the two had already arrived at the priest's place.
"What was that restless feeling in my heart just now?" A blush rose on Lauma's face, but she calmed down from that strange feeling in a moment.
"I'm so sorry, Lauma, I was in a bit of a rush just now," Han Yu explained.
Lauma shook her head. "It's alright, Hanyu, I don't mind. After all, we're friends."
To be honest, Lauma's hands were incredibly soft and delicate. Han Yu patted his forehead, wondering what he was thinking about again.
As the Moon Singer of the Frost Moon Child, Lauma easily broke the barrier, and the two headed towards the underground passage.
“The lunar marrow is still there.” Lauma breathed a sigh of relief.
On the altar, a bright sphere, like a miniature moon, floated in mid-air. From the senses, there was nothing unusual about it.
"Hmm... Lauma, the Moon Essence is gone." Han Yu's words were astonishing!
"What?! That altar..." Lauma said in disbelief.
Han Yu recounted what happened when he and their Kutar, the Moon Maiden, traveled to the place where the Rainbow Moon Essence was located.
"As for the altar, most of them are abyssal products with residual lunar marrow aura." Han Yu activated the Taiji Eye. In his vision, the bright lunar marrow still retained that holy aura on its surface, but its interior was filled with abyssal power, probably to deceive people.
"Then what should we do!" Lauma felt a headache coming on.
One bad thing after another has happened. Is this a cryptic message from the moon goddess?
When Han Yu was in Nordekare, Li Shun only came once, and he was just an Abyss clone. If the other party dared to make any moves under his nose, he would definitely be detected.
That would only happen after I leave Nordkal!
Han Yu instructed Lauma to gather everyone who had entered the altar after he left Nordkale.
"These are all the people who entered the underground sacrificial site after you left."
According to Lauma, these were all local priests.
The so-called priestesses are those who call themselves servants of the Frostmoon Goddess and share Lord Kutar's grace with travelers.
To put it bluntly, he's a fanatical follower of Shimotsuki.
"Everyone, please be patient."
There were eight priestesses in total, all of whom were women. Han Yu observed that their expressions were no different from those of normal people.
"Does Lord Kutar need our help?" one of the older priests asked.
“Your Kutar is very kind; to thank you for your tireless offerings day and night, she has decided to give you a gift,”
Han Yu has a relatively strong voice among the Frost Moon Children, after all, he is good friends with the Moon Goddess, and their relationship appears very close to outsiders.
Including the previous instance where Han Yu delivered supplies to the Frost Moon Children, he also gained a lot of goodwill.
"That's great, Kutar is still thinking of us."
The priests' faces were full of joy, except for one person who was a beat slow to react. Although he seemed happy, he was actually quite stiff.
"Sonizia, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Lauma walked over to her side.
"Yes, Lady Moon Chanter, I just had my period last night..."
that?
Han Yu walked to the other person's side, a look of concern on his face.
Seeing Han Yu's suspicious look, Lauma quickly whispered a reminder in his ear.
"Have you started your period?"
Han Yu's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for the surrounding priests to hear.
Lauma frowned slightly. "Why is Han Yu speaking so loudly? This..."
Han Yu really stumped Lauma this time.
"Oh... I'm sorry, I don't know much about this. Please forgive me if I have offended you, Miss Qi Ya."
After dismissing everyone, Han Yu pretended to leave the Frost Moon Child's residence.
Inside Lauma's house.
“That Qi Ya is acting very strangely. I need to observe her for a few days.” Han Yu didn’t sense any abyssal energy fluctuations from her, but his intuition told him that there was definitely something wrong with her.
"Is there anything I can do?" Lauma trusted Han Yu completely. Even though his actions during the day were embarrassing, she would be the one primarily responsible should any problems arise.
After all, Han Yu was very close to their Kutar and was deeply trusted by the Moon Goddess.
"No need, Miss Lauma, just do it as usual."
"And while you're at it, please arrange a new identity for me."
Han Yu separated his Shadow Clone and returned to the Lunar Force Experiment Design Bureau, where he briefly explained the current situation inside the Frost Moon Child to everyone.
"Most of Li Shun's methods are related to Little Dotore, but this guy's research intensity is in no way weaker than the original body."
The girl knew that if she went to the Frostmoon Child rashly, she might alert the enemy, so she and the others chose to remain still.
"I will handle this."
Han Yu was astonished. How exactly did Little Dotole manage to conceal the abyss's aura...?
