Chapter 1979 - Captured II

Everything had happened so fast that I did not get time to process it all; one second, we were walking toward the September Palace, and next, a master class Tyrant had appeared behind us and now taking us god knows where.

I wanted to struggle out of its grasp, but the difference in power between us is too much. I have the strength of the initial Leader class Tyrant at most while it is Master class Tyrant, I have no resistance against it.

It had sealed most of my strength, and now I could barely maintain my armor, much less attack, which wouldn't be able to do anything.

Thoughts of ending my life began coming to my mind; I had created mechanisms in my armor that would let me end my life even if all my powers were sealed, but I discarded those thoughts.

This Grimm Monster seemed to have a purpose for capturing us; otherwise, it would not have captured us and bringing us somewhere without doing much harm.

Still, I couldn't help but feel shocked by how easily it had captured us; for a while, I had been feeling quite powerful for not only killing the elites but also the leaders, but within a few hours, everything had changed. I had got captured, and I am powerless to do anything against it; my enemy is too strong.

Click!

I was in my thoughts when suddenly it stopped on the opened ground and took out a badge and positioned it toward the ground. For a second, nothing had happened before a door opened, which it had opened without hesitation walked inside.

Underground!

I exclaimed in my mind; I am not surprised about there being underground chambers; I am surprised that we had no information about it. 

Our captor seemed quite familiar with this place as it is avoiding one danger after another, and that badge in its hand seemed to be some sort of access badge as it is letting it open one door after another without any problem.

From what I can see, we are in an underground lab, and this lab is a little different from others; I am getting quite an eerie vibe from it.

This vibe did not make me feel good at all; I am very aware of the job the people of this place used to do, and the methods they used to employ, and not all the methods were good. Some of the methods used by these people were cruel and horrifying.

Click!

It again scanned its badge against another door and opened it, and this time, I saw something different. I saw a huge hall whose every inch is carved with the formations and saw two Master class Grimm Monsters sitting in the center of the formation, and around them, twenty-some humans. 

Twenty-eight of them, to be exact, six leader class Tyrants and twenty-two Elite class Tyrants, each one of them sitting in small formation which seemed to be caging them. I could see them struggling, but they could not get out.

"Elites? letea, I had asked you to bring leaders, not elites," Said the Amethyst Scale Viperman, which is emitting an aura so powerful that it shook my soul. It is, without doubt, a peak Master class powerhouse with a deep foundation.

The Onix Chimpman sitting beside it was also a Master class powerhouse but much weaker than it; it should be a mid-Master class powerhouse.

The Black Thorn Bearman that is holding us, on the other hand, is an initial stage Master class powerhouse, the weakest of three, which is why it had delegated the task of collecting the humans.

"They are elites, but their bloodlines are strong, look," The blackthorn Bearman explained and throwing a palm-size device at it. The viper man caught it, and surprise appeared on its face, "Good job, letea," It said, and the device disappeared from its hand.

"Place these two on the formation and take your place; we will start immediately," The Viperman ordered. The Bearman nodded in acknowledgment and placed us on two empty formations beside other humans; these formations lit up, caging us inside.

The Bearman went to the formation and sat beside the other two; as he did, the Viperman began to manipulate the formation.

I am quite shocked seeing three Master class Tyrants in a single place; from the information we have received before coming to this ruin was that only two Masters from the Grimm Race have come here, so either some of them have come after we did, or they have cloaked their entry into the ruin.

It is a little trickier to do that, but both them and we have methods to do that, though it is seldomly used, seeing how expensive it is to operate such a method.

A minute passed by, and one by one, all the formations in the hall lit up; as that happened, the Viperman said something which I could not hear, but the next moment pile of resources taken out by the three Grimm Monsters and seeing them, my eyes couldn't help but widen up.

These are very precious resources, each and each is something that any Tyrant would fight to the death, but it is nothing in front of three resources that came out.

Each Grimm Monster took out one resource and seeing them, my eyes couldn't help but pop out; I even blacked out for a moment.

The viper man had taken out the divine crystal; it is the size of a child's pinky, but still, it is a divine crystal, and it would be enough for me to create my core. The Chimpman also brought out a shocking resource, the rosemouth grass, a resource that is the same level as the divine crystal and something I could use in its place.

The thing the Bearman had brought out is something even rarer than divine crystal and rosemouth grass, but I have no interest in it; it is not something that I could during my core formation.
