Chapter 85: Previous Era! Historical Ruins?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Elder from the Temple of Light didn’t procrastinate and instantly said, “Our mbers found a large number of elite Undead creatures in Dragon City’s southern wilderness.
There are even traces of a boss-level creature—Dark Magus!”
Dark Magus! Stage Three leader-level creature! A light flashed in Link’s eyes as he stopped walking.
It should be known that the most powerful amongst humans had reached Stage Four at this point in ti. However, the attributes of a leader-level creature were much stronger than humans of the sa stage.
If humans wanted to kill a Stage Three leader-level creature at this current phase, they would need to group up and fight as a team. Unique individuals with combat power that far exceeded normal humans were an exception.
Humans like Link—who had Taboo-grade professions—were, of course, an exception too.
With three Super God-grade summoned creatures, Link alone was an entire army. He was even able to kill enemies of a higher stage than him!
The EXP and item reward from killing a Stage Three leader-level creature were sothing that normal humans would covet. But since he was soone who had killed an overlord-level creature, this reward wasn’t enough to tempt Link.
What truly caused him to stop was a suspicion, or rather a possibility. If this suspicion proved to be true, it would really be a great surprise! It would even severely affect his future progression.
Link slightly turned his head around and expressionlessly said, “I don’t think there’s only one Stage Three monster in that place, right?”
Originally, a slight smile had appeared on the Elder’s face when he saw Link stop. Now, following these cold words, the smile on his face instantly froze.
While feeling horrified, a suspicion arose in the Elder’s heart. Could it be that Link knows about the place I am referring to?!
Another Elder’s expression also turned solemn at the side, and he said in a heavy tone, “You are right. If it’s only one Stage Three leader-level creature, there isn’t a need to share this piece of information with you. The Temple of Light would naturally send an elite team to clear out the place.”
“But according to our people’s investigation, we discovered not just one Stage Three creature there, but at least five. What’s more, there’s even a Stage Four overlord-level Necromancer at the center of this place. This is why we shared this piece of information with you. We hope that you can head there with us to kill the creatures there to obtain EXP and items.”
Upon hearing this, Link’s heart rate quickened by a bit, but his expression was still apathetic.
A Stage Four overlord-level creature was practically undefeatable by humans at this period of ti! At this current stage, a place where such a powerful creature appeared was definitely extraordinary—just like how Mingshi Cetery was where the City of the Undead was located.
If the place weren’t special or unusual, it wouldn’t have attracted so many powerful creatures.
After being reborn back in ti, according to what he knew, Link rembered that the Temple of Light seed to have discovered a historical ruin sowhere near Dragon City in his past life. This historical ruin had brought great benefits to the Temple of Light, and it was even rumored to be left by creatures from the previous era!
It’s very likely that this historic ruin is the place the Elder is referring to right now! It looks like I’m bound to the Temple of Light by fate; they actually ca to give such a great benefit!
The City of the Undead was one of benefit, and this place—which was possibly the Epochal Ruins—was another.
In his previous life, Link didn’t know the historical ruin’s location, and he lost the opportunity to obtain it because the Temple of Light found it first.
But how would he miss such an opportunity this lifeti?
Link turned around and stretched his hand toward the Temple of Light Elder. His expression was slightly warr as he said, “Let’s cooperate well together.”
It wasn’t appropriate to give this Elder—who ca to his doorstep to present him such an opportunity—a cold face anymore.
The Elder was slightly dazed. Then, a smile appeared on the Elder’s face as he grabbed Link’s hand tightly. The Elder said from the bottom of his heart, “Let’s work well together.”
After all, through this ti’s cooperation, they would be building a friendly relationship with a demon lord who could kill Stage Four beings.
Also, the most important thing was that the Temple of Light’s mission would be much safer this ti with Link’s help.
If this Elder knew that the Temple of Light would lose a huge benefit this ti because of this cooperation, he would probably die on the spot from crying!
Link and the Elder then negotiated over the specific matters, such as how they would split the rewards from killing the creatures.
After everything was negotiated, Ou Chen was finally released.
Sizing Link up and down, Ou Chen suddenly said, “Link, why didn’t you eat the [Fruit of Light] that I gave you previously?”
Being the son of a god, Ou Chen could sense that Link’s attribute didn’t turn into the light attribute—which should be the case if he had eaten the [Fruit of Light]. This was why he asked.
With a calm expression, Link said, “The [Fruit of Light] already belongs to , so you don’t need to care about how I use it.”
Ou Chen instantly beca anxious. The reason he gave Link the [Fruit of Light] was because he hoped that Link would have a sense of closeness and belonging to the Temple of Light after his attribute turned into the light attribute.
But it now looked like his plan had failed!
Upon hearing that Ou Chen gave the [Fruit of Light] to Link, the corner of the Elder’s eyes twitched. This prodigal! That’s a treasure that can greatly increase one’s power—sothing that others will fight over with their lives!
Coughing slightly, the Elder said, “Cough cough, since we have completed the negotiations, we shan’t stay much longer. We need to go back and make preparations now. We shall converge at the south of Dragon City tomorrow morning.”
Link naturally didn’t have any objections. Leading Xue Linglong and the others along, he turned around and left.
There wasn’t anything to be said for the night; Link spent the night ditating and recovering his ntal spirit.
...
The eighth day of the apocalypse.
When the sky had only just started to light up, Link had already brought Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao along with him to the south of the city.
As for the others—including the God Devourer Ant—Link had left them behind to protect the base.
South of Dragon City.
A group of people was already waiting here. There were about ten of them, and all of them were elites. Their auras were all quite strong.
Their leader was the Elder who negotiated with Link previously—Tian Mingyuan, Elder Tian. There was also a second leader, who was a burly-looking, middle-aged man.
Seeing Link walking over, both of them smiled kindly at him.
“Link, right? You are really young and promising. I have heard about you, and I am delighted that you will be joining us this ti. My na is Wu Hao.” The tower-like, middle-aged man self-introduced himself in a low and hoarse voice.
Link only nodded toward the two leaders, not saying anything.
“With Link’s participation, we will definitely be able to kill the Stage Four overlord-level creature.” The socializer, Ou Chen, had already walked up close to Link.
“Since everyone’s here, let’s move out.” Elder Tian waved his hand and spoke, not giving their son of god a chance to say too much.
Link slightly nodded and followed the Temple of Light’s team with Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao.
Ever since the apocalypse descended, the wilderness had practically been occupied by monsters. Unless a person had no other choice or the person was quite strong, no one would be willing to step foot in the wilderness.
As for this team of people from the Temple of Light, it was obvious that they were all quite powerful. All were either high-leveled Stage Two existences or had reached Stage Three. As for their leaders—Elder Tian and Wu Hao—both of them gave off a terrifying aura that belonged to a Stage Four being!
Originally, Link was still guessing if his rebirth had affected the Temple of Light’s future achievents. But it now looked like the factions—which had a profound heritage—were indeed quite extraordinary...
