Chapter 263: The chase begins
“Hey wait up… Hey! Is that thing really following us? and if it is, where are you taking us, what is this place?”
“I’ll explain later, you’ll have to trust me”
“Trust you?”
Lobelia wanted to roll her eyes as she sprinted after the man dressed in full-body ar behind him and behind her were the other four party members she ca froht they were safe but Wayland who they discovered here wasn’t of the same mind
“Hey, are you sure that we can trust him?”
Jasmine appeared next to Lobelia and quickly used a hidden skill for forwarding information It was called project sound, thanks to it the user could project sounds to any desired location It was mostly used by thieves or scout classes to sneak around and confuse sentries
However, it could also be used differently, by targeting so down the sound volu it by shattering soh skill level Usually, there was not enough sound output for that, and pinpointing the right spot to his wasn’t easy either
“My sister trusts him, so I’ll trust him too, do you think he would have saved us if he meant us harm?”
The archer nodded but Lobelia wasn’t sure if that was enough to drop the suspicion In reality, she already had a theory of what had happened there and it was only confir What they saw there was truly astonishi+ng, all of them opened up their eyes to take in the view
“What is this? Precious ge!”
Aroleroup was filled with adventurers so they soeons always restored their e that Wayland had decided to keep this place to hi the same they would probably do the same
“By Felmjir’s beard, is that crimson mythril? And that’s… but this is…”
The only dwarf fro that they were being chased To hiht up aroundlike this was a true treasure trove While he did not specialize in it as a dwarf he knew the true worth of a place like this “ Brother Dunan was right, ye wur hiding soave out an order to the spider golee of his skill As he was planning he implemented a relay system into his bots that would forward the order to all of theh all ten of the goleolems retreated towards the hidden exit while four others moved in the direction of the tunnel they ran out Thanks to the signal enhancer he left in the chasm he could somewhat measure where the Lich was At its current speed, it wouldn’t take it long to arrive here so he needed to have his gole them
While his plan was inastonished by thisarea Probably all of them with perhaps the half-orc excluded knew about its worth This area was already exposed so it would probably be impossible to keep it a secret, this was even less likely after he heard the dwarven adventurer shout at hireedy bastard, what do ye think ye wur doin' 'ere?”
“This is not the ti, we need to leave but if you want to stay here and contend with that lich by yourself, then be uest”
Wedamir wasn’t amused and Roland had a suspicion as to why First of all, he did mention one of the union leaders by name Dwarven adventurers treated their craftsmen a lot differently than their human counterparts To them, the creation of weapons and ar to be praised
The dwarves in this world also had a delusion that for so to theet their hands on The union in particular had contracts in place that would force nobles to prioritize them over others if they so desired Thus fro area could have been akin to denying the dwarves their birthright
This was certainly proble to the union bastards that disliked hietting back at hi inforuild or the nobles that the ed to by law Luckily they didn’t really have proof of hi so he could always deny that he wasthe place for many months
“Wedamir is thick headed but I don’t think even he wants to contend with a tier 3 Lich but isn’t this a dead end? I don’t see any exit, Wayland?”
“Givean explanation he quickly ran up to the ith the hidden runic symbols While the way they operated wasn’t difficult, the way they were hidden was peculiar Without his debugging skill guiding hiher-tier runes mechanism there
“There really was an exit…”
Lobelia cheered out as she saw a bunch of runes lighting up when Roland touched the space above the door Following the activation a large door that was big enough to fit his largeopen he ordered it to walk right back in through it Luckily he had not even begun unpacking so it wasn’t hard to just retreat
“So that’s how you’ve been able to do it…”
Not everyone here connected the dots when it came to this place Lobelia on the other hand had realized that this had been discovered during the ti up soh, was this actually discovered later by Roland or did he have so that time no reports were made by them and the safe zone was supposed to have been destroyed when they were evacuating This was not the ti chased by the monstrous Lich Roland confir the pathway leading to the chasm
