Chapter 323 - Sckilemd Ruin (2) (2/2)

”Will we die?” The female archer asked.

”I don't know. However, we will not die for now. It is because when the countdown hit zero, we will be teleported to the nearest town. However, I don't know what would happen next.” Auron told the others.

Some of them breathed a relieved sighed. At least, they didn't immediately die. There should be still time for them to save themself or asked for help to the royalty.

”What should we do right now?” Patricia asked. There were still 15 minutes left before the two hours time limit passed.

”Let's return to town and inform the kingdom or the town to prepare for the worst,” Auron told them and took out a [Return Scroll].

However, when he was about to use the [Return Scroll], a notification appeared.

[You cannot use this item inside an ancient ruin]

Auron tried once more, but the same notification appeared. It was the same with the others. None of them successfully used the [Return Scroll].

All of them looked at each other with a confused look when Auron said, ”It looks like we have to wait for the timer to end before we can exit this place.”

With 15 minutes left, they had decided to explore the place. However, the place was tiny. There was nothing special at this place except this small island with a floating red crystal and numerous butterflies flying around the area.

In less than 10 minutes, they had finished exploring the place and could not found something extraordinary or even an exit. They had no choice but to wait near the crystal until the timer ended.

The crystal was glowing darker and darker. At first, it glowed light red color, however, as time passed, the red color became darker and darker. When the countdown almost hit zero, the color even resembled black rather than red.

[You have failed to destroy the ruin's core]

[You will be teleported to Mischelvin]

[Teleporting began in 10... 9... 8...]

In the end, Auron and his group were teleported back to Mischelvin. A white light covered the group before made the group disappeared.

As soon as Auron and his group disappeared, the red crystal vibrated. Then, its color became black. Not only that, the numerous butterflies that flew around the place also flying uncontrollably before all of them fell down to the ground one by one.

One second later, after the butterfly touched the ground, it shone brightly and transformed into a monster that stood with its two feet. It also had a butterfly wing behind its back.

The appearance of the monster was different from each other. Some of them were thin, while the others had a bulky appearance. However, there was one thing that all of them had, which was the butterfly wing behind their back.

The green grass began to wither, and the beautiful scenery turned into a dark place, resembling a graveyard. At the place where Auron first arrived at this place appeared a portal that led to outside.
