Chapter 240 - 240: Ili

"What!? What is a Portal doing here?"

With Charlotte pulling the giant trees and revealing the Portal it was hiding, the Standby Unit leader quickly jumped out of the truck The mix of panic and amazement in his voice could not be hidden

"There shouldn't be a Portal here, theit!" The Standby Unit then looked at the device he was holding, repeatedly fidgeting with it with his fingers A co to crawl on the Standby unit leader's face, as nocoot off the truck as soon as he realized what Charlotte had discovered; the tone of his voice containing a bit of excitement

The Standby Unit leader, however, shook his head repeatedly upon hearing his words, "Impossible," he said, "It is recorded here that the Portal that used to be the Pit is still ways away, about 200km that way," the Standby Unit leader pointed towards a certain direction

"But… there really should not be any Portal here, even theit Is it possible… that the Portal h the Standby Unit leader knew that what he was saying was impossible, he just couldn't shake the fact that there was a chance that it was After all, they were talking about the Darkzone, an area completely unexplored for "

"One way to find out"

"Y… yes, of course!"

As soon as Charlotte's words reached the Standby Unit leader's ears, he quickly clapped his hands and ordered his teah the Portal in front of theht noas a White Portal, a Rank-F Portal, they could not really relax

Usually, if they were faced with a Rank-F Portal, they wouldn't even bother setting up barricades and other necessities But if there was a possibility that this was the Pit, then they should be prepared for everything Even if it was a Rank-F Portal, it was still the Portal that Charlotte and her protege came all the way to their country for

And so, the team acted as if the Portal was a Purple Portal, Rank A As soon as it was set up, the scout tasked to get basic infor he could with hi that could happen

And with a thumbs up, he carefully stepped inside the Portal

"My grandfather didn't tellfor the Pit"

"Hm?" Van stepped to the side as Adia approached hi for the Pit?"

"" Hearing Adia's question, Van could not help but look towards the Portal surrounded by trees, and then back towards Adia while letting out a sh

"I honestly don't knowto find myself"

"An American traveled all the way to Africa just to find himself?" Adia raised an eyebrow, "What are you, an old hermit?"

"Well… You could also say that I airlfriend!?" Adia could not help but slightly stepped back upon hearing Van's words She was careful not to raise her voice as the cameras were pointed at them But alas, she just couldn't help herself

"Yes," Van answered without hesitation, "I have 2"

"W… what!?"

"Pft"

"" Adia could only roll her eyes as she saw the subtle smirk on Van's face She barely knew Van and has only o And yet, Van was already her fiance, albeit fake and only as a political move There was also the fact that Adia also shared her story and drea

It truly was quite unfair, she thought And although Adia did not like Duh to court her… and he died just like that She was about to turn 30, and if she doesn't marry any ti any children to pass her bloodline

If it was like this, then o with Van He's the White Ie, more than likely a potential Platinum-rank Explorer in the future, and he did not look bad as well Although…

he still did look like a 12-year-old If Adia wasn't aware of Van's real age, then she would definitely be handing him candy But perhaps, that is not too bad as well?

In 10 years, she would still have a young-looking husband

"Is there so on my face?"

"!!!"

Adia quickly shook her head as she cohts that she had She didn't realize that she had been staring at Van for more than a whole minute now

Wait… A whole minute?

Adia quickly placed her attention back to the White Portal before placing her attention on the Standby Unit leader, "The scout is not back yet?"

"No," The Standby Unit leader furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at the Portal, "So"

"That decides it then," Angela, who had been keeping quiet the whole ti and started to stretch her arroup could not help but be surprised by her actions Throughout their whole Exploration, Angela never once prepared and just casually entered the Portals without even stretching her legs

But this ti herself Just what exactly was she expecting to find inside the Portal? In fact, even the White Imvubu held a serious expression-- this put the final nail that roup extreain, Adia approached Van, "I aain Just why did you and the White Imvubu come all this way? What's inside the Pit?"

"I don't know yet"
