Chapter 135 - Untrustworthy (2/2)

Again after the battle with the Ice golems, Ray only grew more suspicious. Although the group easily dealt with the Ice golems how was Jasmine able to come here on her own? Jasmine was clearly hiding something.

As they walked further up the group encountered another group of intermediate magical beasts. This time they were Rabid bunnies. These creatures had the features of rabbits but stood eight feet tall with the body of a grizzly bear. Before the others could even react, Ray had run out in front to take on as many as he could, he dealt with each beast with a single punch.

Ray had managed to defeat a total of 10 Rabid bunnies while the rest of the group had dealt with four. The group were no longer surprised at Ray's strength after the tournament. The only thing that they were surprised about was how quickly Ray seemed to be growing stronger.

After the fight with the Rabid bunnies, Ray managed to luckily obtain 8 Crystals through the system and stored the other 2 in his endless void when the others weren't looking. Instead of keeping the eight crystals in Ray's system though, this time he decided to absorb them all straight away as he walked at the back of the group.

After what had happened last time, Ray didn't want to take any chances. If they met another creature in these caves or those tunnels like the minotaur last time, then Ray needed to be as strong as possible.

After absorbing all of the eight crystals, Ray's points had reached a total of 79. His whole body felt lighter and he felt re-energized. He was now only a few more points away to his next evolution.

”The cave, it's just up ahead here,” Jasmine said

The group had passed many caves on the way over but Jasmine had continued walking upwards until finally, they had reached their destination.

”Is this really a cave?” Monk asked looking at the entrance.

The cave walls looked unnatural and the entrance was bigger than all the ones they had passed. This one stood 10 meters tall and had smooth edges as if it had been carved into the side of the mountain. It almost looked like a tunnel; the cave was clearly man-made.

”Well, what are we waiting for, let's go,” Gary said as he took the lead.

The cave was dark and there was no light source but this was expected. This time each of the group had made sure they bought their own light stone crystals and even more for back up just in case.

The cave felt like it continued on straight rather than going down or up, after walking for a few minutes they had reached around steel door that covered the entire 10-meter tall cave. Not leaving a single gap for anyone to squeeze through.

”This was the door I was talking about,” Jasmine said.

”Well Ray, it looks like it's time to do your thing,” Gary said.
