Just like this, they disappeared from the dungeon.
The small round thing that I crushed was a special thing that they gave us along with the maps that sent us in here.
Each chip like thing was actually an ergency escape button.
As long as it was crushed, it would send the team that it was associated with out of the dungeon. It was used as a way to give up on this competition, but also to save one's life.
Once it was crushed, it would an that the team associated with it would be out of the competition.
For those that had pride, they would rather die than give up. But this thing did give a second option for those that valued their lives more.
As for why I didn't just kill them…
None of the people that participated in this competition were normal people. All of them were talented youths that were gathered from all over the country.
These were people that all had people behind them. Killing them would just an offending those people behind them, in addition to Governor Nangong that we had already offended.
But the real deciding factor was the fact that they didn't know it was . While there would be ways of finding out if they really wanted to, as long as we didn't cross the line…
That was why for now, I decided against killing anyone in this dungeon. Just sending them out was more than enough.
If it ever ca to them knowing my true identity though…then I might take so more drastic asures.
After sending Brother Shi's group out, I didn't even bother cleaning up the area as we headed back to where the gno was.
I had a few questions for the gno with all the new information that I had gotten from Brother Shi's group.
"You know where the other gnos are, don't you?" That was the first thing that I asked the gno.
The gno had a surprised look when he heard this and it seed like he was hesitating to say anything in response…but he eventually gave a nod of acknowledgent.
I wasn't surprised to hear this since I had already figured this was the case.
The next question was, "What about the leader of the gnos? I'm sure that you know where your leader is, right?"
One of the Elite Monsters that Brother Shi had ntioned before was a higher grade gno. It was a Master Gno, the higher evolution of the gnos that would usually be the leader of a large group.
Since there were gnos in this dungeon, it only made sense that there would be a leader of said gnos.
The gno had an even more awkward look on his face when he heard this.
Instead of just being unwilling to say this, it even seed like there was sothing that was pressuring the gno to stop it from saying this. It seed like there was so kind of restriction on the gno regarding the Master Gno.
Was it because the Master Gno was a higher grade than the normal gno, so there would be bloodline pressure on the gno about betraying the Master Gno?
Regardless of what it was, that didn't matter to .
The only thing that mattered was the information on the Master Gno.
So I just waited for the gno to give the information that I wanted.
At the sa ti, the Echo Bat on my shoulder opened its mouth.
When that happened, the gno almost seed to fall into a trance. It seed like he wasn't being affected by the bloodline restriction anymore once it fell into this daze.
The gno slowly raised his hand and started giving us the information that we wanted, but it wasn't that clear since he wasn't actually able to say anything to us. We had to figure it out based on his hand gestures.
So instead…
"Just show us the way to the Master Gno."
Once the gno nodded in agreent to this, the Echo Bat closed its mouth. Read new adventures at My Virtual Library Empire
That was when the gno slowly ca back from his daze.
Right after coming back from his daze, the gno's face twisted as if he was suddenly feeling sothing. The gno grabbed his chest and then bent over as if he was being filled with pain.
We didn't do anything as we just watched the gno like this.
The gno remained like this for a bit before the pain slowly faded from his body. When that pain slowly faded, the gno also started to bleed from his mouth and eyes. It was as if there was sothing that was hurting him from the inside.
This bleeding only lasted a while before the gno stabilized itself.
This really was an interesting phenonon since I had never seen sothing like this before.
I was actually curious how far I could push this gno, but this wasn't the ti to be thinking that.
"Bring us to the Master Gno, but before that…I'm sure there are other gnos along the way, right? Bring us to those other gnos."
Before reaching the Master Gno, I wanted to see if we could gather a few more sets of living armour to follow us. The more gnos that we had under us, the more sets of living armour we would be able to get.
An army like this would certainly be helpful, though there was a part of that wondered if they would actually help against the Master Gno.
After all, the gno seed to have been affected by the bloodline restriction when it was talking about the Master Gno.
What happens if it used its sets of living armour to attack the Master Gno?
There was no doubt that the bloodline restriction would be even worse.
Still, these were disposable pawns for in the first place.
I would make the most out of them before discarding them.
As long as the Master Gno could be taken down, I didn't mind sacrificing a few of them.
