Mythical Era: I Evolved Into A Stellar-Level Beast

Before entering this time, the dean of the academy had given her this location, saying it was highly likely that a Magma Core existed here, but whether she could find it depended on her luck.

After all, countless years had passed, and even if she found the relic, these things might have already been destroyed over time.

However, it seemed her luck was good, as these special Divine Objects had formed a system of their own and ultimately remained without being destroyed.

When Gabriella piloted the Mecha, gripping the blazing Magma Core, and arrived at their meeting spot, Jack Clark had already been waiting for her there.

By then, the howling winds inside the cave had died down, and the murky red fog outside had begun to drift in endlessly, making the space even gloomier.

“With the raging wind gone, it looks like you’ve already got the Black Wind Crystal, Jack Clark.”

Jack Clark’s gaze fell on the red fireball in the hand of the Mecha, thoughtful, “Already got it? Gabriella ‘classmate,’ it seems you know the situation here?”

“I know a bit, but not much…” Gabriella did not hide anything, telling Jack Clark some information she knew, including her purpose for this trip.

Besides the Magma Core, there was also the Black Wind Crystal at the mountain top, also one of the energy sources used by that sect for weapon refining.

Originally, Gabriella’s goal was to make the Magma Core into an eternal power furnace for the Mecha, and the Black Wind Crystal would be integrated into the Mecha to become the Sky Plundering Wings and harness the ferocious winds.

But since Jack Clark had assisted her on this trip and they had explored the ruins together, the harvest was naturally split between them.

Jack Clark nodded, “No wonder.”

He thought that Simon the Genius was not a fool; why else would he insist on delving so far into the dangerous ruins if not because he already had a ‘map’?

“Let’s go, night is falling, and this place will become very dangerous.”

Watching the darkening sky, neither dared to delay. Their Mechas’ engines blasting, they shot out from the cracks and quickly returned to the foot of the mountain along the mountain ranges.

The deeper they went into the ruins, the more violent the Void Energy became, and likewise, the monsters that lurked became stronger.

And these dark Void Creatures, following the instinctual cycle of day and night, became more active and aggressive during the ferocious night.

Roar!

Just as they flew down from the mountain ranges, a roar that shook Heaven and Earth burst forth from afar, scattering the black clouds in the sky to form a huge Hollow.

Even tens of kilometers away, the terrifying might of the Peak of the Eighth Level made both of them grimace, and their Mechas’ engines suddenly expelled even more powerful thrust.

With the wind howling, they flew at supersonic speed at low altitude, and half an hour later, they returned to the place where they had first met.

Jack Clark leaped down from the shoulder of the Mecha and landed on the ground, calling out, “Gabriella, I haven’t finished my task for today, so I’ll take my leave first.”

“Task goal?” Gabriella’s puzzled voice came from inside the Mecha.

Jack Clark nodded, “Yes, to enhance my strength and hone my combat techniques, I’ve set a task goal for myself to slay two thousand Void Creatures every day.”

… Is this a normal person’s goal? Gabriella was momentarily flustered.

However, Jack Clark didn’t care about her reaction. After speaking, he exploded into the air with a bang, continuing his slaughter along the original route.

As Jack Clark, with Gabriella’s watchful eyes on him, swept through and harvested another batch of Void Creatures, he burst from the pitch-black ruins.

It was the same hillside by the Oasis, where the flickering firelight dispelled the surrounding darkness.

Just as Jane Aiken concentrated on slicing slices of Alien Beast Meat, ready to start grilling dinner upon Jack Clark’s return, the ground from afar began to quake.

In the darkness, a colossal Mecha strode forward, kicking up a storm, crushing the Earth beneath its feet, and thunderously approached midway up the hillside.

“It’s Simon’s Gabriella.” Jane Aiken naturally recognized the Mecha and couldn’t help but look up at Jack Clark with surprise, a questioning look in her eyes.

“Earlier, she was being chased by a Level 8 Pollution Beast, and I just happened to pass by and lent a hand. Then I went with her to explore a relic…”

While Jack Clark and Jane Aiken explained the situation, the driving cockpit at the back of the Mecha’s neck opened, and the blonde girl in a red tight-fitting combat suit climbed out.

Jumping down from the Mecha’s shoulder to land on the hillside, Gabriella smiled and said, “Hello, I remember you, you are Jane Aiken from South Sky Martial Arts School.”

Jane Aiken nodded in response, “Hello, Gabriella, senior sister.”

This year, being a sophomore, Gabriella was indeed a senior sister to them both.

After exchanging greetings, Gabriella looked at the slices of Alien Beast Meat on the stone slab, her sapphire-like eyes showing curiosity, “Do you eat this every night?”

Jane Aiken nodded calmly, “Would you like to try some?”

“Sure.” Gabriella didn’t put on airs and, instead, approached Jane Aiken with enthusiasm, getting so close that the girl felt somewhat uncomfortable.
