From the outside one may think that place was a secret hiding place carved inside the mountain but as one explored inside, they would be up to a surprise cause as it was incredibly vast.
Once they explored inside they encountered innurable runic structures and tattered corpses.
The decayed clothes worn by so showed many patterns indicating extravagance whereas so wore simple tunic clothes and were identified as slaves.
On the corpses of so, there were many chains of gold, diamonds, and many precious treasures. They also had their storage rings intact, so of which were quite rich.
"Damn, this is really a treasure land."
"Now I know why this is known as Lost Jewel."
"Holyshit, if I loot this corpse, I don't think I need to work my ass off and risk my life for ager money. The wealth in this ring is enough for us to last throughout our life."
The rcenaries who followed after danced crazily in joy. While so looted without giving a damn, so worried due to superstitious reasons didn't dare to touch the corpse.
At that ti, soone spoke solemnly, "This is weird?"
"What's weird?"Others asked worriedly.
"Their deaths…The way they died is so strange. So looked as if they committed suicide like this one whose hands had been grasping the thief's own neck firmly."
The man's rotten skin between his palms and neck had been joined like glue over ti.
"And look there, they seed to have been killed by fellow humans and it's odd cause in a real sense we are just on a baren mysterious land and there isn't any treasure. And seeing their wealthy clothes, I don't think they killed each other for wealth or so treasure here."
Hearing the expression, their gaze rotated between the corpse and the man who guessed the happening.
Cold sweat started trickling from their forehead. They felt a shiver down their spine just by imagining the brutality and bizarre phenonon that occurred here.
Their nerves tensed up and they decided to be on guard all the ti. Since the space was vast and might be filled with danger, many rcenaries ford a huge group and decided to stick other and take it slow.
On delving deeper inside, they found murals and many ancient artworks on the walls of rocky structures depicting people worshipping a bright round spot scattering rays.
At first, they mistook it for the sun but on researching it carefully, they found that it was a record of ancient events.
A catastrophe occurred that changed the structure of the world. Humans suffered from coldness, depicted by a shivering posture in humans circling the fire with drops of flakes dropping from the clouds.
One day, lightning flashes occurred, and a battle occurred high up in the sky that tore the sky and subrged the world in a bright light that blinded everyone's vision.
And when it ended, a huge ball of fire crashed into this place emitting mysterious energy that shook the world and changed the climate of the world…
"Wait a minute! Is this the thing that ended the Ice Age?"Soone muttered, unable to restrain his composure.
"We can't be sure. Who knows how accurate this thing is?"
"But what is this thing about teorites?"
A hush silence followed the question. All of them already had a rough guess about that but no one dared to voice out their words.
They couldn't help but feel their heart freeze as they studied the ancient record.
On advancing further, they soon found an area covered by a thick fog that was wriggling around covering one vision. The fog was white at the beginning but it beca crimson ongoing further.
So people lighted flash torches and stepped in but none of them returned even after a long ti.
Feeling the odds of a bad on, they decided to bind themselves in rope to stop themselves from scattering and went in...
However, the mont they went in, they heard a bewitching soft voice tantalizing their soul.
[Kill yourselves otherwise, it's even better to kill your friend. Kill them and the fortune of God would be yours. All yours.]
The mont they heard the voice they started losing their mind and went wild.
Soon a grueso massacre took place as the groups started attacking one another.
ARGHHHHH!
AAAAAH!
KHUEEEM!
Those who were still outside halted in their steps hearing bloody yells of pain and death.
It didn't take long for them to find out the cause.
The fog seed to cast so evil sorcery on their mind and make them lose their composure. Thier minds were affected making them crazy and turning into mindless killing machines who attack anyone surrounding them to kill.
If you are alone, you will kill yourself whereas if you are in a group, you try to slaughter your teammate.
And if by chance soone managed to control his or her suicidal thoughts, they found many wild beasts of the high realm inside that shredded them into pieces
The heart-shocking truth behind the veil of fog left many terrorized and many imdiately decided to retreat as the re opportunity wasn't good enough if they couldn't even stay alive to get it.
.....
Many people who entered, retreated with cold shivers going down their backs. They felt a creepy claw scratching their heart when they saw shadows and piles of bones.
It might be a place of treasure for so but for them, it's a trap leading to death.
The rcenaries who stood at the entrance felt a cold sweat dripping from their backs.
Viper, the leader of Viperblade looking around, asked the people who ca out in fear.
"Has soone managed to get in?"
The question drew other rcenaries' interest.
Those who ca out looked at one another in bafflent. At that ti, soone among them shouted.
"It's the Vice-Captain of Wolfgang. I have seen her along with a handso man going inside the fog and I think they have a way to go in."
"Really?"Marcus, the captain of Steelblade rcenaries, asked skeptically.
The group of people flinched back upon seeing Marcus's serious expression.
They didn't know if they managed to get past the fog as they didn't dare to venture deep out of fear so it was just an assumption.
Viper clicked his tongue in annoyance seeing Marcus exerting pressure on his n. Since when did an outsider provoke his people?
"Hey, don't show off here. Why don't you go and ask your n?"Viper spoke coldly, eting Marcus' gaze.
The veins over Marcus's forehead bulged.
"Are you making fun of ?"Marcus shouted.
BOOM!
The aura of two Martial Lords surged and clashed against one sweeping away the dust and debris.
The air grew heavy as they simultaneously unleashed their powerful auras. One emanated a fierce, crimson energy, swirling with intensity, while the other projected an azure glow that seed to dance with the wind. The clash of their auras struck fear in the hearts of those around them.
"Fuck!"
"Run away!"
"Shit!"
Many even saw the illusion of sparks flying in the air as the two heads of the rcenary group locked their gazes and scread for their life. They ran away in fear so that they wouldn't get caught up in their fight.
