BXBX NOVEL Chapter 407 Wrath
"I\'m really fine… But I think we should leave this dungeon as quickly as possible. It\'s starting to collapse…"
Vincent replied as he noticed that the ground started vibrating… In just a few seconds, he can tell that it will just get worse and this is not a good sign.
"That\'s true… Let\'s go. It must be related to the disappearance of the tree." Turhan nodded as he cast a Wind Haste Skill for everyone…
This made their bodies feel light so they can move easily.
Crack… Crack… Crack…
Just like what Vincent expected, the walls started cracking and the ground suddenly started to shake…
"We need to hurry…"
Vincent only has his Shrouded Steps as his movement technique so the Wind Haste that Turhan cast on him was really helpful… He\'s the only one here who can\'t use Elemental Mana Arts after all.
In just a couple of minutes, they managed to reach the exit and returned inside the Illusion Formation… Their path behind started breaking apart and it will collapse at any moment… It was such a scary sight that no one even dared to look back.
Thud! Thud!
As soon as they came out and breathe fresh air, they heaved a sigh of relief. They escaped successfully and they learned a lot in today\'s exploration.
Vincent glanced around and confirmed that everything is safe so he decided to lead everyone back to the airship. He also wanted to study what he gained today so he was excited to return to his room and check it out.
As he was walking to the Vermillion Hawk, a strong energy fluctuation suddenly covered their entire surroundings.
"Not good! Run away!" Faviona warned the group as she noticed that the dungeon\'s destruction would actually affect its surroundings.
They might caught up in the spatial distortion and die a gruesome death!
They have to move away!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Everyone moved in haste and jumped away from the dungeon entrance…
They even left the Formation Core behind since they didn\'t have time to take it with them.…
Zap!
Like lightning tearing up the sky, the surrounding space started acting differently… It was being distorted and anything caught inside was being sent to the other side or into nothingness.
The rocks, trees, and even the small settlement around the dungeon entrance started getting warped into somewhere else.
Needless to say, Vincent\'s Pseudo-Legendary Traceless Optical Illusion Core was also destroyed!
Although he still has a spare of this Formation Core, he couldn\'t help but feel dismayed after recalling the amount of money he has to spend just to purchase it from Lola.
Whom…
"Move back!" Faviona warned them again as the suction force of the distortion might catch them off guard. There is no saving once they got eaten by that.
"This…" Vincent had seen something like this in movies or even animation he had watched in his previous world. He was normally fascinated by these kinds of things but seeing it in person, however, made his scalp feel numb.
Crack… Crack... Crack…
The destruction of the entrance seems to be in its critical stage. The distortion around them is getting stronger and larger…
Luckily, they have docked the Vermillion Hawk quite far from the settlement so it was safe relatively safe…
Whoosh!
In a blink of an eye, the dangerous distortion of space disappeared. It was sudden and silent like it had never happened at all.
"That was so magical… So that\'s how a dungeon closes…" Dianne commented. Although her heart was beating fast because of the dangerous phenomena just now, she still felt admiration for the unique experience she just had.
"It\'s fascinating yet quite scary to think about… I wonder what would happen if we didn\'t get out of the dungeon before it disappeared?" Ayla asked.
"Don\'t try to find out Ayla…" Turhan answered immediately.
"What? Of course not… Although I\'m curious about a lot of things, I wouldn\'t do something so dangerous." Ayla pouted as she run over to the Vermillion Hawk.
It was quite stuffy in the surroundings after what happened and she wanted to get into a close space.
Everyone had the same thoughts as they left the previous entrance to Silent Creek Dungeon and boarded the airship.
Again, Vincent piloted the airship on their return but this time, it was Krusk who was on the co-pilot seat.
He seem to have experienced piloting the Avian Lion and he wanted to observe Vincent fly this Vermillion Hawk.
"It\'s still here… Great! I thought it disappeared as well."
Suddenly, Vincent heard Faviona\'s relieved sigh as she checked the glass jars where she put the leaves. The glowing leaves are still there as the jar seems to have preserved its unique properties. Vincent was happy for her since she can no longer get another set of leaves because of what happened.
Anyway, as they were nearing the city, Vincent\'s communication crystal suddenly vibrated… Someone is trying to connect to him so he immediately activated the item.
"Vincent! Where are you?! We\'re under attack!"
Everyone here Calidia\'s worried voice in the other line.
Everyone, including Krusk was alarmed after hearing this… The young mythical has a precious lake in that place and he was slowly transforming it into something he could call home. If the city was destroyed, he can no longer stay there as well so this is bad news!
"Stay calm, we\'re already heading back… What\'s the situation? Is it the Black Magic Organization? Did they bring the Avatar?" Vincent asked.
If those Avatars were really attacking them, Vincent doesn\'t know how he could save the city.
"It\'s not them! Barbarians! Thousands of Barbarians are marching here! They already sent 10 of those Totemic Barbarians and almost destroyed the city walls. Luckily, your Senior Brothers stopped them in time…"
"What? Barbarians? What are they thinking this time?" Vincent frowned as he continued to fly their airship as fast as possible.
Turhan and Faviona were also surprised since it was quite unusual for the Barbarians to mobilize such a large number…
\'Just what did Vincent do to attract their wrath?\' This was the question in their minds.
Vincent, on the other hand, realized a possible reason why they are doing this.
\'Ugh… Did they find out what I did to them?\' Vincent grunted.
