Chapter 349: Secret Mission

Anything you need from me, Dean? Miles asked after Val and others left.

I do indeed. There are several things I want to talk about. Milosh sighed as he sat on his glorious seat while pointing to a regular one for Miles. Miles sat without any reservation and waited for Dean to continue.

Lets start with the quest, or to be precise, the area, Milosh said and looked at Miles.

Did you see anything strange?

Everything there was strange. From tree to dirt, creatures to stones, and oh yeah, freaking pyramids. Miles said while waving his arms exaggeratedly.

So, you have seen them. Milosh sighed deeper and raised his hand. A bubble of energy left his arm and covered a three-meter radius around them. Miles, I forbid you to approach there as the Dean. I also beseech you not to go there, as a friend.

Why? What is in there? Miles asked in burning wonder.

I dont know. Milosh said then accentuated, We dont know. All we know is that they are as old as pyramids on Earth, which makes no sense. When we first discovered them, we spoke with Mother AI and it said there were hundreds of them all around Portal World. They are older than the ancient races who had created the AIs.

Probably structures built by the early civilizations.

Do you believe that? The possibility of the same structures appearing in two different worlds is close to nil. Miles shook his head.

I know, but it is how it is, Milosh said and showed a document from his wristwatch. This is the site where the first ever portal appeared. Do you know where it is?

Egypt, Miles answered while observing the pictures.

It was very close to the Pyramid of Djoser. The oldest pyramid on Earth. Milosh said and showed the old-looking structure.

What does it mean? Miles asked.

Did it drop from the creature? He asked.

Yes. Miles nodded and asked. What are they? Why are they useless, and how can I make use of it?

Well, starting with the last question, you can sell it for a giant amount of money. Milosh pointed at the orb and said, Many influential people looking for a way to crack this fuckers. Some believe they are like Skill Orbs, some say they have some requirements to be fulfilled before they can be used, some say they are like the tower seeds.

What seeds? Miles asked in a dumbfounded tone.

How are you a Cross? Milosh sighed and explained what towers were and how one could find Tower Seeds in them to strengthen their ultimates.

So, no one was able to crack it yet? Miles asked in disappointment although he was expecting it.

Sadly no. My team is also working on them, so if you want to sell it, I am more than willing to purchase it. Milosh said. But Evelyn would kill you if she were to know.

Mother probably has a few right? Miles asked but Miloshs gaze told him otherwise.

A few? A FEW? Do you know how rare these shits are? He snorted in anger. There are a total of 16 of them in all Unity. Academy has one, and now you have one another. Total of 18 of them.

So rare? Miles asked in surprise.

Yeah, so rare. Milosh looked at him in disgust. Even Evelyn doesnt have the second one.

But why? Phantom World is filled with Mystic Creatures. Cant you go and hunt hundreds of them. There should be several orbs in that place right? Miles asked with a tilt of his head.

Wow, sometimes I forget how ignorant you are. Milosh shook his head and explained. Mystic Branch, Seed, Orb anything about this energy type is as its very name signifies mysterious. Not only to us, believe me. Even most monsters dont know anything about them.

There is also some sort of condition for this type of orb to drop. We dont know what it is as we dont know anything about them. So no, we cannot go and hunt hundreds of creatures so we can loot Mystic orbs.
