Chapter 62: Exploring The Ruin

Ray and Rena were currently standing at the front of the sacred ruin.

" Ray, do we really need to enter this place?"

The ruins were emitting an ominous aura, so it wasn't strange that Rena didn't feel comfortable here.

" It's okay, Rena. We will take a look at what's inside first. If it is still too much for us, we will retreat and make some plans."

Rena didn't reject anymore. She followed Ray, and the two get into the sacred ruins.

*Whoosh*

What happened next was a bit of a strange phenomenon.

When the two entered the sacred ruins, they felt like they were going through some strange vacuum, and after they successfully get in, the ruins inside were really different from the outside.

It is a long chamber with a width of more than 20 meters and 10 meters high. Large torches light up the whole area. Above, Ray could see many strange patterns on the ceiling of the dungeon. Shallow water covers the entire floor of the area they are standing on, and they could hear water dripping from the ceiling.

The floor is uneven and is hard to move, but the water isn't deep and barely covers the soles of your foot. The inside of the ruins is pretty cold as their body started to shiver, and they could see the breath vapors coming out of their mouth.

The ruin was giving eery sensation, but they still need to keep exploring ahead and find some clues about the trial of the guardian.

' So this ruins functioned like a dungeon inside the special dungeon, huh.'

Ray didn't keep quiet for long. He took Rena hand, and they started to explore the sacred ruins inside.

" …"

The atmosphere inside the sacred ruins was really strange. Soon, silence enveloped the whole place, with Ray and Rena could hearing each other's heartbeats.

" Calm down Rena…

Ray was still consoling the nervous Rena when he heard some footsteps.

Step, step.

Thud, thud.

Ray himself couldn't find any more information from the footsteps, so he called Schwarz and asked her to do some reconnaissance.

" …2,3,4,5. It's 5 wild spirit beasts, Ray. They are coming here."

Using the special ability of Dunkenheilt eyes, Schwarz's perception ability was the best among them, and her information should be 90% correct.

Nonetheless, Ray still felt a bit tense since it was his first time battling more than 2 spirit beasts at once.

He had encountered many spirit beasts in the forest area, but since most of them have high egos, they chose to live separately and made it easier for Ray to hunt them one by one.

Now 5 spirit beasts are coming at once, and he must engage them in the battle to pass through. He clenched his fist and started to order the battle preparation.

" Schwarz, Xiansheng ahead of us is 5 spirit beasts with unknown abilities. Prepare for the battle position."

Thump, thump, thump!

Ray's heart began to pound harder. The battle he was going to face would be the hardest battle he had ever face till now.

'Wait for it…'

…Now wasn't the right time yet.

Step, step.

Thud, thud.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. And when the footsteps were about 50 meters away from them.

[ DING!!! Detecting the presence of hostile spirit beasts.]

[ Proceeds to engage them in battle? Y/N]

'Yes'

[ DING!!! Initiating battle mode, Go Schwarz and Xiansheng.]

Eventually, the spirit beasts revealed themself. 3 goblin-like spirit beasts and 2 Werepig were marching in their direction.

" Schwarz, Xiansheng, heed my instruction. Xiansheng summons the geo pillar to obstruct their movement, and Schwarz summons the phantom knife, ready to attack at any time."

The two obediently obey Ray's command. Xiansheng summoned the geo pillar 10 meters away from them to make a barricade and hinder the enemies' movement.

Xiansheng's battle condition was pretty unique. It only activates when he actively attacks the opponent, so using geo pillar to hinder their movement didn't count as actively attacking, thus enable Xiansheng to help in battle while not entering battle status.

The geo pillars could stop them from moving in their path, but it didn't stop them from pouncing the pillar like a mad beast.

" Why are they this bloodthirsty?

Rena, who was watching on the side, let out long groans. This battle was not anything like the previous battle outside. Spirit beasts have some intelligence, so they knew to escape when the situation becomes unfavorable to them.

But the 5 spirit beasts ahead of them right now were different. They had bloodthirsty eyes and kept pouncing on the pillar without bothering with the wound generated from crashing with the pillars.

" Ray, we need to attack. The pillar wouldn't hold long enough if this were to continue."

Xiansheng hurried Ray. The strongest defense is to attack. Even if the geo pillar could hold down the spirit beats, they would have no progress if they didn't attack.

" I know, Schwarz. Get ready for the assault."

"Meow"

With Ray's instruction, Schwarz pulled out the phantom knife and sent it flying toward one of the goblins.

*Critical hit*

The phantom knife hit the goblin right at its neck, resulting in a critical hit and a one-hit kill for Schwarz. For a spirit beats of omen and destiny like Schwarz, most of her hit is guaranteed a critical hit if she was focused enough.

Just like the first Goblin, Schwarz's phantom knife strikes the other two right on their neck, resulting in another one-hit kill.

" Nice one, now we only need to deal with the two Werepigs."

Ray and Schwarz shifted their attention at the two Were pigs. The Werepig was slower and had lower attack points than the Goblins, but they had a stronger defense, and it would be hard to one-hit kill them. It was also the reason why Ray chose to deal with the three goblins first.

" The phantom knife attack would be insufficient to deal with their high defense. Let's move closer and engage them in close combat."

" Meow"

After defeating the three goblins, the two Werepigs attacks alone have no way to breach the geo pillars, so Ray and Schwarz could safely get closer to them and defeat them in two-on-one close combat.

…

*Slash*

Schwarz used the phantom knife to hit the last remaining Werepig's eye, and when the Werepig was a bit distracted, she launched a scratch at its other eyes to deal the last blow and reducing its hp to 0.
