Chapter 200 - Protector
'That was a very satisfying good sleep…'
Sleeping on the ground was usually a very painful thing, but to me it wasn't, not in the least, instead it was one of the best sleeps that I had since my entry to the 'Lost Realm'...
Confirming the miraculous effect of 'Unbound Vitality' came with a price, most of my energy was consumed, not to mention that I have already spent a great deal of my stamina to fight of the 'Cheering', so as soon as I went out of my battle state, my body gave out, so I just decided to sleep in the same place I collapsed at.
Adding the fact that I hadn't slept in 7 days, and eating nothing of the 'Great' looking food of the demons, this sleep was pretty much a needed one!
'Oh… it was also a very long one…'
Upon checking the time, I found out that I actually slept for two whole days! If I wasn't calculating it wrong that left me with barely one day and a half before the date we are supposed to return to the Brigade at, and also the date at which the pin stops working enabling the head to open the letter if he planned to…
Staring at the 'Corruption Core' standing still in its location, I decided to have a quick shower followed by a quick meal before getting out of here.
Taking out some water containers from the ring, I used my 'Telekinesis' to wash my body before drying it, and exchanging into a clean set of clothing, I sat down as I started preparing the meal.
I could almost hear my stomach grumbling, asking for food, but that was to be expected, considering the amount of nutrients consumed by 'Unbound Vitality' to restore my hand, it was only right to compensate my body with more food.
Starting a fire using a spark of lightning on the wood I collected from the forest outside, I took out some already cut and seasoned chicken strips and gave them a good roast, as the fragrance started to rise, I already finished the first one out of hunger…
The reserves that I had prepared for this month were quite an exaggerated amount, but in the end, after the 'Quick' meal ended, I was barely left with a tenth of it…
'This 'Unbound Vitality' sure takes a big bite…'
Anyways, now that I was finally full and refreshed, it was time to move on to the real business.
'Thanks for the gift, Sand!'
Looking at the pillar made of elemental crystals, I thought that it was only right to thank the one who saved it, otherwise, it would have turned into a fuel to the 'Cheering' alongside the crystals in the 'Sacred rooms'.
Not knowing what would the actual reaction of the core and the green teleporting crystal once I destroyed the core, I decided to use my swords as sculpting tools to take most of the crystals in the pillar, leaving only a thin rod like pillar to support the somehow levitating core.
'Well then, Farewell...'
Recalling the whole seven stressful days that I spent in here, I was thankful to god that the outcome of the whole ordeal was still to my advantage, even though there was quite a lot of uncertainties in my plan…
I waved my sword towards the 'Corruption core' hacking it into two…
[ You have absorbed the essence of a 'Corruption Core', purification in progress….. ]
[ You have received 56,698,235 EP! ]
[ You have leveled up! ]
[ You have reached level 76! ]
The fact that most of the essence in the core should have been exhausted from Sand's final act, yet the leftovers still managed to score me a level up, made my wonder just how many creatures were killed to make that corruption core…
After the whole blood essence cloud dispersed, a strange looking wisp which had a very fascinating color, which I could hardly describe, floated to the green crystal in my hand, changing its color to look identical to wisp's color…
"Hey Long…"
[Yes, this is you way out, it should teleport you back to the room where you killed that bull king, now leave me alone, you already said you won't disturb me anymore…]
"Well, no need to get worked up over a little question, but thank you nonetheless."
[Whatever! Just leave me alone!]
'Is his newest persona that of an introvert…?'
Since I was already ready, and didn't have that much of a leisure time, not to mention that this burnt underground base was not that amazing of a sight, I nonchalantly crushed the crystal in my hand, putting aside the thought of keeping it for its fascinating color...
'Time to ride the nauseating train once again…'
I could only close my eyes and hope that I would arrive sooner...
`~~`~~`~~`
10 minutes later…
'Finally… wait, this isn't the last space ride…'
Reaching the space where the green gate could still be seen, apparently appearing in the place where the dark gate should have been, I could only sigh at the fact that there was one more space train ride to go…
But I still steeled my heart as I stepped into the green gate…
However, instead of the nauseating ride I was expecting, I was sent out directly out of the gate as the green color filled my view.
