Ma Lin grew more and more certain of the high possibility.
So why did these four encounter danger? Could they have stumbled upon some secret and were killed to silence them?
Or perhaps they were getting close to a secret, which is why they were silenced?
If the perpetrator held the rank of a scholar, Ma Lin too might fall victim without even realizing it and then die.
Don't rely on everything to be solved by the "egg"; if he died and had to rely on the "egg" to resurrect him, that would be truly embarrassing.
Ma Lin had never seen the dead come back to life; it seemed that the Odro continent had very strict rules concerning this.
But he had no doubt that the "egg" could do it.
The "egg" was once the god who ruled over the world, greater than all deities, probably just needed to pop over to the realm of the dead to bring Ma Lin back.
If Ma Lin's body were completely destroyed, it could create a new one for him as well.
