Counterasures were quickly taken to stop the fog from advancing, but they were only able to slow it down instead of stopping.
Amalia, Leonie, and Victor quickly mobilized their forces and t up with their acquaintances from the high realm.
anwhile, Morana happily ate her new chocolate bar with Asakil flavor.
Asakil was a purple fruit she found in the beast village. It had a hard shell, like coconut, but was instead purple in color. The fruit was the sa color inside and had a sweet caral flavor. What was fascinating about this fruit was that it was like ice and didn't lt easily, so, after a bit of experinting she found lots of good uses for this fruit and gathered a large quantity of it.
Seeing her happily eat the chocolate bar Samael also couldn't resist feeling warm and looked at Morana with tenderness.
Soon they arrived at the 7th ga arena "Treasure hunt".
The na was quite informative, but the group wasn't naive enough to let their guards down after what they've been through in the dream city so far.
The 7th ga arena was a jungle and its host was a middle-aged man with a tall figure, shaved head and beard, and strong jawline. He was dressed casually compared to the previous hosts and looked more like an adventurer than a host.
He didn't talk much, just his na and the rules of the ga.
"I am Bernard, the host of his ga arena, the rules of this ga are to find the treasure in the jungle and bring it here, that's it."
Bernard didn't give any other explanation or right to ask questions and just stood there waiting for the participants to enter the jungle.
From their group Zoel, Sophia, and Ezra would participate, but other than them there were two other teams that both sent 3 participants so, the competition was quite balanced quantity-wise, well quality is a different matter.
The group soon entered the jungle but they all knew that this ga wouldn't be as simple as it seed.
The mont they stepped in and looked back they could no longer see the exit.
The three teams separated from the get-go and Zoel, Ezra and Sophia were now alone, walking aimlessly. Zoel was the first to break the silence after 10 minutes.
"We can't just walk like this, we need a plan."
"No shi*t genius." Snapped Ezra.
"What do you suggest?" Asked Sophia, not bothering with Ezra's remark.
"This is a treasure hunt right, so there must be a map sowhere." Said Zoel and just as his sentence was finished holographic screen appeared in front of their eyes that said:
"To find the treasure map, go to the one that sees it all."
Seeing the clue Zoel couldn't help but look at Ezra with a smug look that instantly annoyed him.
"No need to be so smug about it, you were just lucky." Snapped Ezra but this only made Zoel happier.
Sophia couldn't help but have a headache looking at their childish rivalry.
She really didn't want to get in the middle but she knew she had no other choice so decided to move their attention to the clue.
"The clue said that the map is with the one that sees it all."
Sure enough, after hearing her words the other two finally concentrated on the important.
They all started thinking about the clue when suddenly Ezra broke the silence.
"Height."
"What?" The other two looked at him puzzled.
"What if it's about height, soone in the high place." As if gaining an enlightennt, Zoel quickly understood Ezra's train of thoughts.
"Like a mountain or a tall tree."
"Yes, but there are lots of trees here so It must be a special tree."
"We need to climb up and look at the jungle from above."
The two were completely in sync with each other, at the end they were even holding hands like childhood girlfriends. At this Sophia couldn't help feeling helpless.
'Well, whatever makes you happy
Only after 10 minutes did the two realize the situation they were in.
"cough I will climb the tree and look at the jungle from above." Said Zoel as he let go of Ezra's hands and started hasty climbing the tree.
Ezra was not much better than him. He couldn't help feeling embarrassed rembering the situation not long ago.
At the sa ti, the other team mbers that were looking at them from outside the jungle had a hard ti holding in their laughter, especially Emir who was an honest fellow.
"Hahahahaha I can't stop laughing damn my stomach."
anwhile, Zoel had already climbed up the treetop and was now looking at the jungle from a higher viewpoint. The next second as if realizing sothing his expression brightened and he started climbing down unfortunately what greeted him down wasn't what he expected.
"I think I know where the map is but we have to hurry before soone" He started speaking not noticing the situation at first but feeling that sothing wasn't right he looked towards where Sophia set before and
"'bum"
He felt pain from the back of his head and everything went dark for Zoel at that mont.
***
"Zoel, Zoel." Soone's voice woke him up as he felt a dull pain coming from his head. He wanted to open his eyes to see who was calling, but he had a hard ti doing that.
With ti, He finally managed to beco more clear-headed and felt that he was bound, after finally opening his eyes he understood the situation.
Currently, his feet and hands were bound to the wooden pole. And he was hanging from it like a hunted prey while two n with a weird getup were holding the pole on their shoulders and taking him sowhere.
Sophia and Ezra were in a similar state, he tried to use his ability but was unable to do so.
"Finally, you're awake." Said Sophia.
"What's going on?"
"When you were on the tree these people appeared suddenly and attacked us, for so reason we are unable to use any abilities here so we were quickly caught. When you ca down they hit you on the head and you passed out." Said Sophia.
"It seems like we are normal in the premises of the jungle and we can't even open your storage rings." Added Ezra.
"Do you know where they are taking us?"
"Not sure, but If I've guessed it correctly we are today's dinner." Said Sophia helplessly.
While the three were experiencing the first horror of the jungle the other two groups weren't any better on their poles.
