Keys To The Gate 29 Heis

An hour later, Tristan was at the cafe. Admin Quinn hadn't yet arrived and he was scrolling through the Vast Expanse information on the admin. At times like this, he was thankful to the unfettered access to information he had in the Void Expanse.

A few minutes later Admin Quinn arrived. The two greeted each other and got down to business.

"I am curious how you found out the information that I was connected to the incident?" Quinn asked.

"I had to do a lot of unsavoury stuff to pull favors and get the information. It wasn't easy." Tristan lied in a breath.

Admin Quinn nodded as if he half expected that. "Whatever you want to know from me is not free. You need to do a task for me if you want to know what happened that day."

"What is the Task?" Tristan asked.

"You need to steal an object for me. Can you do it?" Admin Quinn asked with a baited breath.

"Depends on the ident.i.ty of the object in question." Tristan said, sighing.

"I need you steal an egg. The egg is currently kept in the mansion of a powerful family - Dillard Family, not far from here." Admin Quinn said.

"What's in the egg?" Tristan asked.

"It shouldn't matter to you. Will you do it?" Admin Quinn asked.

"You've read my file I guess. How exactly am I supposed to hide from people and steal it?" Tristan asked.

"I will create a distraction. You need to sneak in and steal the egg within two minutes. I have the schematics of their defenses and patrol tactics." Quinn said.

Tristan nodded.

Half an hour later, Tristan waited... as Quinn set his plan into motion.

Soon an entire platoon of government officials besieged the Dillard Household, headed by Quinn. A magical voice reverberated inside the entire household. "The Strategic Defense Division has issued an arrest order for the entire Dillard Family members, you are under suspicion of colluding with demons! Peacefully step out!"

Inside the house a voice boomed and vibrated the foundations of the mansion. "How is this possible! Has the government gone mad?" Trying to suppress my family? Hmph!"

A senior elder looked at the direction of the voice. "Patriarch, what do we do? The government seems h.e.l.l bent on arresting us. An entire platoon is out."

The patriarch snorted. "We exit peacefully. I have already called the Mage Tower and Martial alliance. Everyone quietly gather outside, I will deal with these officials through the law."

Tristan, who had been hiding in the corner, wearing the clothes of a guard of the Dillard house was shocked. This diversion was indeed too perfect. He quietly entered the house using the item Quinn had given him, a relocation scroll. The house was completely empty.

Tristan walked to the Treasure house area and there were two ordinary guards stationed, who didn't go out. Tristan, however was already prepared. He activated another spell scroll according to quill's orders and the two guards were knocked unconscious by two darts.

Tristan then calmly walked into the treasure house. He was shocked at how precise the Quinn's intelligence was. Tristan wondered if he had a spy on the inside. Regardless when he entered, he found the egg, as well as several other treasures. Tristan held the egg, to put it within his backpack, but the system displayed the information.

[Matrioshka Egg]

Tristan paused for a moment. Matrioshka Egg... he felt like he had heard this name before somewhere. Then it clicked and he had a crazy grin on his face.

Matrioshka was a mythical beast which when it was born was as big as a galaxy, but was extremely weak. At the end of its life, the Matrioshka would turn into an egg and hatch a smaller version of itself. Over countless eons, the Matrioshka underwent this process of rebirth and growing smaller and more powerful, all the while retaining its memories.

Eventually, when the Matrioshka was last seen, it was a little taller than a human and had taken human shape as well. It was often mistaken as a human by other humans and with each rebirth it stopped growing smaller. The Matrioshka was a most mysterious being in the Universe. And now the Matrioshka in egg form landed in his lap? Immediately a plan began forming within his mind.

Tristan quickly began touching other treasures to see if there was anything useful. He did not find anything useful. He decided to enact his plan into action.

As the Dillard Family had peacefully gathered outside, Quinn had an even excited expression on his face that he couldn't hide anymore. The patriarch had noticed that and was starting to get worried.

Quinn wasn't worried, because the egg had actually been stolen by the Dillard Family itself, and even if it was stolen they wouldn't make a hue and cry about it.

Then a huge explosion exploded the entire mansion into pieces and the explosion even injured a lot of the dillard family members. Tristan had used a highest purity Energy Stone to detonate a huge explosion to trigger just after teleporting away. The patriarch, who could feel the energy of teleportation, as well as saw that the treasure house had been completely destroyed and completely crumbled exploded with rage.

"Government b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! Not only did you arrest us on false grounds, you even stole from and destroyed the treasury! Today you shall not leave!" The voice of the Patriarch boomed through the area scaring everyone. The Dillard family members immediately began attacking the government officials, who too were stunned by the explosion and also reluctant to attack.

Quinn who was stunned into silliness suffered the brunt of the patriarch's attack and was immediately heavily injured and on the brink of death.

"Wait... Wait.. this must be a misunderstanding! He growled as he desperately tried to back away but the Patriarch did not let him escape and kept using powerful spells of wind to pierce and drill into Quinn's body.

Quinn, realized he was going to die, used his final life saving trick and burst all of his blood. Immediately his speed increased thousand fold and he escaped towards the site of the meeting point with Tristan. As long as he got the egg this would still be worth it. Quinn disappeared from the area, but he was on the verge of dying.

When he arrived at the meeting point, a broken down factory, he found Tristan waiting there, but he looked injured as well, with several b.l.o.o.d.y tapes covering his body. When Tristan looked at Quinn, he was shocked.

"You got attacked too?" Tristan asked.
