Chapter 574 574: I'll Take Care Of The Rest



The further Gabriel entered into the Shadow Garden, the worse it became. 

After some time, Ezil was unable to see anything at all. Even with her unique eyes, she failed to see a single thing. It was as if she was nothing more than a blind person who could only rely on her senses. 

However, for some reason, Gabriel was still able to see to some extent. Even though his vision was also affected, making him unable to see farther than a few meters, but he could at least watch his footsteps. 

He noticed Ezil walking even more carefully, checking her surroundings with her hands. This made him realize that she had finally lost the ability to see things at all. 

"You can't see anything now, do you?" he asked. 

"Like you're doing any better," Ezil rolled her eyes. She didn't believe that Gabriel was in a better condition than her. 

"At the rate we're walking, we're never going to get out of this place. I can still see. You focus on the barrier around us, and let me leave you."

He reached out his hand, holding the young lady's hands, who was taken aback by the sudden touch. However, she didn't resist. If Gabriel could actually see, then it was certainly better and made the journey shorter. 

Holding Ezil's hands, Gabriel led her. He focused on the direction according to Ezil's guidance. On the other hand, Ezil focused on the barrier around them to protect them from the decaying energy around them. 

Even though Gabriel guided her while holding her hand, their speed was still not very fast, since she still had to walk carefully as she was unable to see at all. 

In the end, Gabriel became even more impatient. He didn't have any intention of spending more time here than he had to. 

He moved closer to Ezil, leaving her hand. Instead, he placed an arm over her shoulders, stunning her. However, at the same time, he placed his other arm behind her knees. 

"What are you-" Ezil tried to speak, but before she could finish, she was picked up by Gabriel like a princess. 

"I'm increasing our speed. Focus on your barrier. I'll take care of the rest."

Gabriel sent out multiple shadows to check the terrain in his surroundings, especially in the direction of the auras that made him feel threatened. The auras were getting closer to him slowly. This was another reason he wanted to move faster. 

However, there was another reason that he picked up Ezil. Initially, the strange auras that he felt didn't feel hostile. That's why he didn't know much. However, the closer he got to the Core Region of the Shadow Garden, the more their killing intent he felt. 

In the end, he understood that things were much worse than he would've liked. It was only a matter of time before they were attacked. So he had to take care of that matter before it could become shackles around his neck. 

That's why, he embraced Ezil. While keeping her close, he could cast a small barrier around him and her to prevent her from sending the auras of his Death Generals. Moreover, it was also much safer. 

Gabriel sent his shadows toward the terrifying auras that didn't belong to the Beast Overlords of the Shadow Region. 

Instead, these were creatures that were born in the Shadow Garden itself. They were stronger inside the Shadow Garden than they were outside.

The Shadow Beasts didn't have much intelligence. They didn't attack everyone they saw. However, they also had an innate feeling that they had to prevent anyone who tried to enter the Core Region. 

That was also why they were slowly getting more and more hostile as Gabriel reached closer to the Core Region while avoiding most of the natural traps in the Inner Zone. 

In the end, all the Shadow Beasts prepared to take action and attack Gabriel. 

pαndα---noνɐ1,сoМ All the Shadow Beasts spread out, slowly surrounding Gabriel. 

Even Gabriel felt their auras spreading out. He realized that the beasts were finally ready to attack him. 

A terrifying beastly roar resounded in the Shadow Garden that echoed even in the Outer Zone. 

Most of the other clan members were still in the Outer Zone. However, they all started trembling as soon as they heard this terrifying roar. 

Fortunately, thanks to Gabriel's barrier, Ezil didn't hear anything. Even though she had also felt those auras, before she could feel their killing intent, Gabriel had already cast a barrier. 

Even with the beasts surrounding him and offering a warning, Gabriel didn't stop walking.

In the end, the Beasts became even more furious. It was as if they were ready to rip Gabriel to pieces. 

However, right then, all the Beasts felt a terrifying aura that even made them hesitate. Moreover, that aura was coming from near them. 

While the beasts were still confused, multiple powerful beings came out of the Shadows, shrouded in the auras of death. 

Without the next few minutes, the terrifying roars of the Shadow Beasts turned into scared shrieks of fear, as if they were all being killed. 

This was the first time they felt fear like that. Usually, in the Shadow Region, only youngsters could enter, and no youngster was able to possess so much strength. This was the first time they came across something like that. 

Gabriel heard the pained shrieks, but he didn't react. Instead, it was as if nothing had happened as he continued walking, while the Army of Undead disappeared inside his shadow, as if they had served their purpose. 

The Inner Zone was a place that no one had managed to pass through. It was said that the people who managed to return alive from the inner zone had all failed to find a path to the Core Region. 

As for the ones who were on the right path, they had all died. However, until now, no one knew exactly how they died. 

However, for the first time after a long while, someone had managed to pass through all the traps and survive the Shadow Beasts. 

After two long days, Gabriel finally found the entrance of the Core Region of the Shadow Garden.
