Chapter 1109 Center Of The Ruin

"Are we going to continue? You should know others are heading to the center of the ruin now." Ellis asked after they killed the last young man.

Although revenge was good, they had a mission here, and that was to get benefits. They couldn't forget it because they wanted revenge.

"We would still have to journey out, it's not too bad to wait until after." Keith spoke as well.

He felt they should also focus on the task ahead. Besides, they've killed a good number of those from the Syphilis Faction. He knew for a fact that with the two in the Mid stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane killed, the overall strength of the people from the Syphilis Faction who entered this place had dropped drastically.

Previously, they had killed eleven, adding this five to it, it was sixteen.

Grey thought about it and nodded. He was not clouded by revenge and can't reason. Even while they were hunting down the people from the Syphilis Faction, he made sure that they were still headed in the general direction.

The group soon left the place, heading toward the center of the ruin.

….

Some minutes after Grey and his friends left the scene of the battle, a group arrived.

It was a group of people who wore black cloaks. The little girl looked at the environment and laughed.

"A battle took place here. Some people with the darkness elements." She said while studying the place, after some time she added, "Special icy flames. He's the one with that attribute, right?"

The cloaked figures didn't say a word as they just stood motionless.

The little girl muttered some words and after stamping her feet on the ground in annoyance, she moved. The black-cloaked figures moved along with her as well.

….

On another part of the ruin.

"Father, how did you know this was here?" Gilbert asked in shock.

He was with his father in a building, compared to others, they were the people who had advanced the most. His father seemed to be familiar with this place and they were able to maneuver through the terrain and arrive at a large palace-like building.

His father didn't even bother with anything and directly headed for a room. Inside the room was a crystal book.

After his father took in the information inside, the crystal book shattered.

"I've been here before." Gilbert's father said, his hands behind his back. In his eyes, one could see the melancholy in it.

"You've been here? When was that?" Gilbert asked. He was suspicious of this when they were moving through the place, but hearing it from his father, he didn't feel too shocked about it since he had already guessed it.

What he found strange was that his father said that he had been here before. This was a place that produced the last True God, if his father had been here, how long was it, and what did he obtain here?

"Don't think about these. Let's get going. Others will be appearing here soon. Later on, you can fight for some opportunities." His father didn't say anything and walked out of the room.

"Can't we check out the other rooms since we're already here? We would be able to gain more benefits." Gilbert was a bit surprised by his father's words.

"It's best if you wait for others. This place, it's not as simple as it looks." His father replied, "The only reason we can come here is all because of this."

Gilbert looked at what appeared on his father's hand curiously. He had seen this thing before, at that time, he was still very young. He didn't know what it was, but his father used to stare at it for a long period in the past.

The item was a small jade pendant. In the pendant, there were writings and drawings. He could read the writings, so he didn't bother about it.

His father kept the pendant after showing it to him.

"Let's go outside, it wouldn't be good if anyone sees us leaving this place." Gilbert's father said and walked out.

Sometime later, they came out of the building and headed straight for the woods.

A few minutes later, the first batch of people arrived.

If Alice were here, she would recognize them, it was the group from the Vaergahl Family. They all had shocking auras, and some of them had signs of just breaking through. Obviously, they've gained a lot from this place.

Of course, they seemed to be missing some people. This place didn't house only opportunities, but it housed dangers as well.

When this group arrived, they stared at the palace-like building but didn't rashly rush into it.

They knew this place was most likely the most important place in the ruin, but there was a chance that it was also the most dangerous. The probability of this being true was very high, so they didn't dare to be rash.

Time slowly passed and more people started to appear. People from different forces started to appear. From the Burchard Family to the Moonlight Faction, to the Dawson Family, and the Pyrmond Faction.

Of each force, those that were separated would immediately group up with the others the moment they arrived.

Traveling together meant safety, but that would limit the number of people who could obtain anything, so after a few days, most of the groups were divided into smaller ones.

….

Some hours later.

The place was already filled with people. The father and son duo who left before anyone came had appeared as well.

Gilbert was looking around when his eyes caught sight of some familiar figures walking out of the woods.

Grey and his friends just arrived, and they were all staring at the large building in front of them. This was the thing that would naturally take their attention the moment they appeared.

"Father, let's meet up with them. I know some of them." Gilbert pointed at Grey and his group.

"Huh?" A surprised look appeared on the face of Gilbert's father as he raised his head to see Grey and Klaus who were walking side by side.
