Chapter 28: Arriving At The Ruin Portals
Chapter 28: Arriving At The Ruin Portals
"The most important thing that must be noted about the devirs is that they are capable of evolving. This devir here is tagged by scientists as only a grade-one Abyssal creature.
A new creature has been noted by scientists, and when properly researched, is said to be an evolution of the normal devir. Its power was said to be at the Early Star rank stage.
This means, there might be a high chance you'll be facing an even higher grade of devir in the ruins. The best advice is to avoid confrontation with the beast if you can, and in an occasion where you can't, then fight it together in a group.
More than that, it is also a possibility you'll be facing other devilish creatures apart from the ones stated here. So don't panic when faced with a new creature and think this is not part of the information. There might be the existence of new creatures in this ruin. Perhaps, you might even be the one to discover a new creature for humanity..."
'Well, if we don't end up in its belly that is...'
"With that said. Another piece of information is that you won't be the only one going on this mission. Elite students of the Star Bright Academy and other adventuring groups will also be going together with you in this ruin. It is advised you all work together to explore more of the ruins.
As for the treasures obtained from the Ruins. Half of it would be used to strengthen humanity. So do not go there thinking all the treasures will be pocketed by you. It won't, the reward for completing the mission is your reward.
Although you'll be able to pick something out of your pile, it won't be all. If you don't agree to this, please exit..." The man said looking intently at them all, but none of them stood up.
"Good. Also, this mission is a Calamity Level grade due to its unknowns. There's a ninety percent chance of death, so if you want to get out of this, this is your last chance to go..." The man said but all he received was silence.
Of course, they were all aware of that before signing up.
"Good. Know well in the ruins. It's humanity against aliens. Please put away all form grudges and fight together as one at all times... With that said, I wish you a great expedition time..." The man said as he suddenly faded away from where he stood as if he was only a mirage, something that shocked Khan to his core, although the other awakeners weren't.
"A space awakener huh?"
DRIIIIIIIING
His watch vibrated intensely as he looked at the image of a map written on it, a particular place in red while his current location was in green.
And immediately, followed by the other four, he stood up at once, heading towards the direction of the points.
-- -- --
A ginormous spaceship could be seen right at the top of the Abyssal Core Guild, with three huge words written on its surface.
ABYSSAL CORE GUILD
In front of this ginormous spaceship stood
Five people, a glint of surprise evident in their eyes.
Slowly the door to the ship opened up blowing out strange white gas as they all filed into it, five seats already present in the small hall.
"Strap yourself in. The journey to the Magical Arcana Ruin in the wild will now begin..." The AI voice rang out through the hall as Khan's golden eyes flashed in memories.
It was just like how it always was! How he had always gone on the missions. It was the same procedure and slowly his body was reflexively responding to that feeling.
His breathing, aura, and demeanor changed quickly. Slowly, Khan felt his entire memories disappearing into nothing, replaced by a single thought!
To Complete The Mission!
The group of adventurers began engaging in small talks, mainly showing off their respective abilities and exchanging battle achievements but Khan never pained attention. His eyes closed, head reclined on the back seat as he exhaled every five seconds.
Something that drew the curiosity of the other adventurers but none of them paid it no mind.
'Perhaps, he's nervous due to this being his first mission..."
But there was a single adventurer whose gaze occasionally turned to Khan, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes every time he laid eyes on him, quickly disappearing faster than anyone even Khan could sense.
-- -- --
The Wild!
It was a horrific name sending shivers down the spine of anyone who heard it.
Why?
Because it was a forbidden place. A place that once used to be that of humans but is now nothing more than a dwelling place for the Abyssal creatures.
Yet in this always deserted place, spaceships could be seen in the clouds all flying towards a particular direction in the wild.
The spaceship drew closer and closer to the location of the ruins as the AI voice rang out through the hall...
"Less than a minute to descend to arrive before the location. Please prepare for disembarkation..."
Immediately Khan's eyes snapped open as he stood up Instantaneously, his hands positioned weirdly, but his eyes noticed the lack of solid matter in his hands and the strange gaze from the group who were seated with not a care in the world.
"Take it easy kid. We're not even at the Ruins yet and you're all worked up. Don't worry, papa will protect you..." The voice of an adventurer rang out, a middle-aged man, with a lanky, rectangular-shaped face which seemed to have been bashed in at the left side and a criss-cross mark on his blade. The smooth work of a sharp blade.
"Way to go Sharon..." The voice of the other adventurers rang out but Khan ignored their taunts.
"We have arrived at our destination..." The AI voice rang through the hall, the spaceship engine crawling to a stop before the staircase opened up as they all stood up and exited the spaceship, welcoming the new environment they were in.
"Quite a bustling environment for a place like the wild.
