"1. As long as you are willing to enter Destiny Space in the name of the Toads.
Whether you obtain the item or not, the Toad clan will voluntarily withdraw from the Wetland Campaign.
If you return successfully, you will receive one ordinary opportunity to 'view the wall' and be safely sent back to the Knight Order.
2. If you can obtain an item capable of effectively relieving fatigue and hand it over to me.
I will gift you the Medium Deed of Lake Trasimeno—the Toad Palace—and am willing to maintain a long-term cooperative relationship with you... If what you bring back exceeds my expectations, you will receive an even better reward."
These had been the conditions set by the Toad Ancestor beforehand.
Now, what Han Dong had brought back would certainly satisfy the second condition, but whether it exceeded expectations still depended on the Toad Ancestor's assessment.
As long as he met the second condition, Han Dong was already satisfied.
The Depths of the labyrinth—Place of Slumber.
This was a special space exclusively used by the Toad Ancestor for sleep.
The moment one stepped inside, one could feel a cool breeze that cleared the mind.
The Place of Slumber had been designed as a profound cavern resembling the mouth of a gigantic well. Its horizontal width—the well mouth's diameter—was roughly five hundred meters, while its depth was immeasurable.
Before Han Dong and the others stood only a suspended, level broken bridge to walk upon, extending precisely to the center of the well mouth's surface.
Beyond that, there were no other paths, nor could they find any way to descend into the lower reaches of the Place of Slumber.
This was the Toad Ancestor's dwelling place. Even the simplest act of walking was extraordinarily difficult here.
