Capítulo 561: Chapter 79: End of the Secret Realm Exploration

Although the enemy seemed to have disappeared, everyone still maintained a high level of vigilance in the face of the green fire on the altar.

Even though they appeared to have been unharmed just moments ago, no one knew whether waiting longer would bring forth other unexpected events.

Thus, under Princess Starlight’s leadership, a series of attack magic continued to fly towards the altar.

However, this time, to everyone’s surprise, the altar that was being targeted by the group’s barrage of attacks crumbled like an ordinary rock structure, and the ghostly green flames on it were extinguished instantaneously.

“Did we succeed? Has the enemy disappeared?”

Looking at this scene, everyone exchanged uncertain glances with each other.

Having struggled immensely to get through the previous six layers, had the final boss of the seventh layer vanished just like that?

This outcome was far too easy, so easy that it felt somewhat unreal.

“Lord Sims, I beg you, please prophecy our safety once again.”

After some thought, Princess Starlight decisively sought help from the high-rank Prophet she had brought with her.

If the problem here had not been solved, then the previous prophecy would not change.

“Very well, Your Highness.”

The elderly Prophet nodded, took out a black crystal ball the size of a human head, and held it in the palm of his hand, his eyes slightly closed.

Without any noticeable action, the color of the crystal ball gradually contracted toward the center, eventually turning colorless and transparent, with just a spot at the core that seemed capable of swallowing even light itself in pitch darkness.

At that moment, the old Prophet suddenly opened his eyes, and a burst of silver-white radiance suddenly shone from that spot of pitch black, then flashed across the Prophet’s pupils.

“…The prophecy shows that the danger here has been eliminated, and we will be able to leave soon.”

Looking at the crystal ball with some curiosity, the elderly Prophet announced the result.

“Perhaps… it’s related to that mysterious person in the black robe earlier. Whatever he did here might have led to the change in fate.

Remember the three followers who suddenly returned to the seventh floor to wait out the situation during the previous battle? Maybe that mysterious person had already fought a battle with the Alien God Priest at that time.”

Although the specific process was unclear, some people keenly guessed part of the truth.

“I understand, whatever it is, the fact that the crisis has dissipated is good news.”

Nodding to the old Prophet, Princess Starlight turned her gaze to the people around her. After enhancing her voice with the Amplification Technique, she spoke in a solemn voice.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the danger here has been essentially resolved. Next, I will not continue to bind you to do anything, but it’s best that everyone doesn’t stray too far for the time being. Just in case there’s any residual danger that remains.”

After she finished speaking, Princess Starlight no longer paid attention to the crowd’s reaction, but walked towards the remains of the altar. Although the assembly and the green flames had been destroyed by everyone’s attack, there might still be some information left in the remains.

After listening to Princess Starlight, people looked at each other and then instinctively gathered into several small groups according to their standings.

The descendants of the Four Great Families split into two groups, three of the princes and princesses, excluding Lanno, forming their own groups respectively. The nine descendants of the marquises clustered around the two strongest among them, and the others attached themselves to these factions.

After the external threat had vanished, the contradictions among the people once again became prominent.

Among the gathered crowd, the status of two players was a bit awkward. After Anvis ‘died,’ they were essentially equivalent to having gone into a wild state.

Xia Ye Yinghuo had a Ninth Rank Limit Secret Star Scholar as a mentor and was somewhat better off. The Last Dragon Descendant, on the other hand, was a bit out of place as the local residents around him were all indifferent, and he couldn’t possibly shamelessly approach them.

But he was not overly concerned with this situation

When Anvis turned to ashes, the Elf’s heart skipped a beat, sensing that something was terribly wrong.

If Anvis was dead, then who would issue his task rewards?

But after a glance at the panel, the Last Dragon Descendant’s mood calmed down immediately.

He had experience in this matter before; if the local resident responsible for issuing task rewards died, then his task would either be declared a failure directly or undergo other changes, such as changes in the task goal and reward.

But now, there was no movement on the task panel, which indicated that, although Anvis appeared to be dead, he was likely still alive.

Glancing at Yalanis, who had somewhat regained her composure but whose eyes still held an indelible chill, the Last Dragon Descendant seemed pensive.

This could perhaps be a prerequisite for some sudden task, worth attempting to trigger.

“Please wait a moment, respected miss, I am a follower of Anvis. According to my senses, Anvis might not be dead yet.”

Having made up his mind, the Last Dragon Descendant suddenly stepped forward, approaching the small group of Yalanis and the people of the Alfred Family, bravely speaking out against the girl’s cold, indifferent gaze.

“You… what did you say?”

Before the words had finished, the Elf suddenly felt an extreme cold enveloping the surroundings.

With reddened eyes, Yalanis appeared before him in an instant, her voice lingering in the Elf’s ears like irreducible ice.

“Cough… Miss, I said Anvis is still alive, please calm down first.”

Looking at the girl only an arm’s length away, the Elf involuntarily swallowed, having no doubt that this native girl could easily kill him.

“…My apologies, please tell me the details and where he is now, this is very important to me.”

Yalanis, too, realized the inappropriateness of her behavior, calmed her emotions, and expressed her apology to the Elf, regaining the calm demeanor similar to a solitary orchid in the snowy field.

“Here’s the thing, I don’t know where Sir Anvis went, but I can assure you he is unharmed. I have a special connection with Sir Anvis, if he were to die, I would feel it too.”

With that, the Elf’s tone changed.

“If you need help, I can try to find a way to bring Anvis back to you.”

This was a free task, the Last Dragon Descendant had noticed a detail previously, the box that fell onto Anvis’s ‘ashes’ was different from other equipment.

All other pieces of equipment were those that Anvis had carried with him before, but that box appeared out of nowhere.

His guess was that Anvis must have some other arrangement, intentionally faking his death to escape, and would surely reappear in the future.

“Alright, I’ll leave it to you then. If you can bring Anvis back, I will give you a generous reward.”

Success!

Seeing the task appear on the panel, the Elf was thrilled.

Although the task reward depended on how quickly he found the person, as soon as Anvis appeared, his task would be considered complete, and the reward was practically free for the taking.

Yalanis was unaware of the Last Dragon Descendant’s ulterior motives, and she didn’t care. As long as she could find Anvis and bring him back, any price she had to pay was worth it.

All the equipment left by Anvis was likewise collected by her, prepared to be returned to Anvis later.

Strangely, the Sealing Box seemed to contain something special and couldn’t be put into the space items. She could only carry it directly, planning to open it when she was away from others and see what was inside.

At this moment, in the core of the Great Hall, Princess Starlight and others were still studying the remnants of the Altar, but none of them had any success.

The place was unusually clean, with no trace of any special power— as if it had been cleared by something.

But soon, without waiting for them to continue their research, a ripple-like disturbance appeared in the space of the seventh floor of the tower.

“?!”

Faced with this sudden development, everyone was taken aback and immediately went on high alert.

Was it those two mysterious people returning?

However, in the next moment, the ripple gradually solidified into a deep purple crystal Gate, the Clone of [Crystal Gate] Bair stepped out from the opened space, having successfully established an escape passage six Magic Time units after receiving the request for help.
