Chapter 185 Unraveling the Mystery

“An elder? Do you know his identity?” Caspian asked.

This was an important mission for Tigra, and since they were bringing along an elderly person, it was clear that he was no ordinary man!

“I’ve had someone look into the background of that elder. He just arrived from Tigra. His name is Henry Shaw. He’s originally from Diatoran but later moved to Tigra. He’s proficient in astronomy, geography, and metaphysics. He’s a professional in these fields!” Sylvia reported.

“As expected, this person was found by Tigra to solve the puzzle of the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk!” Caspian remarked.

“Exactly. Once Henry cracks open the door, the treasures inside Dragon’s Hill will definitely be emptied in no time. Caspian, what should we do now?” she asked urgently.

There was absolutely no time to waste.

“Let’s not act rashly! Let’s observe the situation first,” Caspian said.

Taking action now would undoubtedly lead to a confrontation between the two countries.

“But if we wait any longer, the veins and treasures in Dragon’s Hill will be taken away!” Sylvia urgently remarked.

“Don’t worry. Their numbers are limited. They can’t clear out everything in a short time. Let them move the things out, then we’ll make our move.” Caspian suggested.

“Has Willow figured out any way from the star chart?” she asked.

“No. This puzzle is quite difficult to crack. It’s good to let Henry give it a try. Continue monitoring the scene and report to me immediately if there’s any problem,” he replied.

“I understand!”

With that, Sylvia hung up the phone.

Caspian knew that getting the treasures of Dragon’s Hill would certainly lead to a battle.

But with limited manpower on his side, a reckless attack might result in severe losses.

In order to win, he had to get as much manpower as he could. At the thought of this, Caspian immediately made a call to John.

He went straight to the point and ordered John to mobilize more troops.

John didn’t ask many questions either because he could tell from Caspian’s tone that the
