Chapter 262: Sanctuary Center (5)

Of course, Deckard also knew that their strength was similar to that of the Red Legion. Even if they had the initiative to launch a sneak attack, the result would probably end in a loss for both sides.

After all, monsters' strength over humans lies in their physical strength, not the various skills formed by human techniques. Their physical strength allows them to withstand a round of sneak attacks and then launch a counterattack.

At that time, the attacked Red Legion might launch a fierce attack on the level like a wounded beast.

As a result, not only would the Qiu Chieftain's subsequent actions be extremely dangerous, but even the checkpoint's guaranteed evacuation plan would undoubtedly be significantly impacted. For example, the checkpoint's protective barrier would be attacked, increasing its energy consumption, potentially reducing its seven-day energy supply to only three days. Furthermore, high-ranking personnel at the checkpoint would be sacrificed or seriously injured defending the exterior, stalling internal evacuation efforts.

Although they knew no monsters would attack, Chief Qiu and his group still cautiously headed towards the center of the sanctuary. Of course, their speed was much faster than before.

After a while, Chief Qiu and his group arrived near the Vanishing Basin where they had been yesterday. Near the entrance to the Vanishing Basin, they could clearly see a stone-paved road. However, the road was already somewhat dilapidated.

After arriving at this clearly marked road, the group didn't walk far before they saw a danger sign built by the Adventurer's Guild.

Below the sign, there is a brief description of the center of the sanctuary and the resting place for prayers.

"Surprisingly, there aren't any weeds or vines growing near this sign."

Sean looked at the eye-catching sign on the wall and couldn't help but say curiously.

After all, the ruins were now in ruins, with weeds growing in the cracks between the stone slabs, and vines clinging to the surrounding walls.

"This slate is made of special materials."

"This material has no effect other than suppressing the growth of nearby plants."

"And that danger sign is made of fluorite, which glows at night."

"This way, adventurers passing by will be able to see it clearly, whether it's day or night."

After just two glances, Angelica discovered the secret and began to explain the principle.

"Is that right?"

As a direct member of the Adventure Guild, Sean only just realized that there are so many ideas involved.

"Moreover, these two materials are also very cheap."

"For ordinary people who are exposed for a long time, it is very harmful."

"Rumor has it that in the distant past, when most items could display attributes, fluorite was marked with an effect that caused a loss of one health point per minute below level 5."

Angelica then shared some other pieces of knowledge in a storytelling tone.

After going deeper for a distance, everyone came to the end of the road.

At this time, at the end, there are gates on both sides.

Although the two doors were still closed at this time, the team knew from Deckard's previous instructions that the door would open automatically as they approached.

"Angelica, should we go left or right now?"

Looking at the situation ahead, Sean handed this most common multiple-choice question to the team commander.

In response to Sean's question, Angelica sat on top of her wand and flew upwards for a distance before observing the situation ahead. Because the ruins were damaged, the barrier here no longer existed, giving Angelica the opportunity to fly into the sky.

"This time, we'll go left."

After completing the observation, Angelica flew down and informed everyone.

"Aren't you going to the right this time?"

"Aren't men usually on the left and women on the right?"

After listening to this, Sean said a few words out of habit.

After hearing this, Angelica couldn't help but give Sean a blank look, then began to explain the reason.

"I just looked up in the sky. The ruins on the left lead to the mountainside ahead."

"And the ruins road on the right eventually leads to the top of the mountain."

At this point, Angelica couldn't help but look at her teammates. She felt that someone in the team would ask her to explain everything clearly. Therefore, she paused for a moment.

"so what?"

However, this time, the person questioning Angelica was not Charlotte as she had expected. To Angelica's surprise, it was Lunalia who was asking.

After listening to this, Angelica couldn't help but glance at Len. She found that Len, this innocent young man, was scratching his head in distress.

"Because the purification device can affect a large area near the Kaidra checkpoint."

"If the device is located halfway up a mountain, the area it can affect is limited."

Angelica confirmed the location based on her inference of the effects of ancient devices.

"Of course, if the first thing we encounter after we go in is a group of guards with the strength of junior professionals, then it must be the center of the sanctuary."

“If it’s a mid-level professional taking the lead, then it’s natural that it’s the place of rest for the prayers.”

"Well, let's just turn around and go to the other side."

When Angelica saw Sean taking the lead and walking to the left, she added a very simple verification method.

After entering the ruins on the left, the group hadn't walked far when the road began to rise. This also matched what Angelica had said before.

As they continued to go deeper, they began to feel a strange sensation, as if they were in an intact area of ​​the ruins. This feeling might have been a subconscious result of their frequent visits to the ruins.

"Ding!"

Following this feeling, Qiu Chief manipulated the magic sword and flew directly over the crowd's heads. Then, the magic sword hit the barrier not far above their heads.

The team members were not surprised by this situation, but they had to restrain their hands and feet a little in the upcoming battle.

Soon, everyone encountered the guardians of the ruins, a group of blue-skinned stone-throwing goblins, who blocked their way.

The number of these energy-created monsters matched the previous description of the ruins. However, their strength, while surpassing that of most normal goblins and nearly reaching the level of a beginner professional, was clearly different from what was recorded in the Adventurer Guild's records.

For this group of weak monsters composed of a single profession, Chief Qiu and his group easily solved them with a few area skills.

Behind the monster was a flat corridor.

Not long after a group of people entered the corridor, they turned a corner.

At this moment, Charlotte held her spear horizontally, stopping Sean from moving forward. At the same time, she herself stood still.

As soon as the team leader stopped, everyone behind the team also stopped.

"Charlotte, what's wrong?"

As soon as the team stopped, Sean asked first.

"Everyone, don't move. I feel there's danger ahead."

Charlotte, who often acts on her intuition, now shared her feelings with everyone in the team.

"Um..."

Angelica pondered for a moment after hearing this. After all, she still trusted Charlotte's intuition. Then, she spoke.

"Charlotte is right."

"There is indeed danger ahead."
