Chapter 513: Regis Ruins
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
The black forest became the best cover for Marvin.
The Jade Banshee was clearly unaware that she had been followed.
She was holding a crystal ball that was emitting a faint light. The crystal ball was displaying the scene of Marvin and Griffin going north and leaving the range of the black forest.
After that, nothing else appeared in the crystal ball.
The spell clearly had an area restriction.
Marvin was silent, his curiosity triggered.
His intuition told him that this Jade Banshee’s appearance in this place was definitely not a simple matter. She tried to stop others from approaching the snow mountain, but why?
And the fact that she let them go free proved that it wasn’t in order to block the path between Black Swan Hill and Holy Light City.
She was apparently hiding something.
Black forest, secrets, and the news of Cold Light’s Grasps’ appearance, Marvin couldn’t help thinking about all those.
He was already in the black forest anyway, so Holy Light City was already within reach. If Half-God Minsk was still there, a few days wouldn’t make a difference.
He followed the Banshee all the way, pushing his sneak ability to the peak.
They reached the center of the forest after about twenty minutes.
This was the boundary between the mountain and the forest, where dark rocks and ghostly trees were interwoven.
A small entrance appeared behind a bush, in front of Marvin.
The Jade Banshee quickly went in.
Marvin hid behind a tree and closed his eyes.
[Earth Perception]!
His mind was completely immersed in his surroundings. He caught that unique rhythm and a three-dimensional image of his surroundings appeared in his mind.
This was one of Monks’ most crucial skills, as the outstanding perception it granted could help them safely avoid danger.
He could feel a strange magical aura.
This seemingly ordinary snowy mountain actually contained such a shocking Chaos Magic Power.
The reason it wasn’t obvious was that this Chaos Magic Power was sealed by some formidable strength.
It was like the Universe Magic Pool used by God Lance to seal the Universe’s Chaos Magic Power.
This place apparently hid a Magic Pool of a much smaller scale!
Marvin was even more shocked when he discovered that this Magic Power was somewhat different from ordinary Chaos Magic Power.
The Magic Power… Seemed to have its own life.
This feeling made Marvin shiver.
Chaos Magic Power had always been one of the most important elements of the world’s living things. It was like Order Power, existing as a foundation.
But that foundation was based on Magic Power being non-sentient.
Chaos Magic Power could destroy the mind of an ordinary person because it could destroy a bit of Order Power. But if Chaos Magic Power had consciousness… Marvin didn’t dare imagine what could happen.
‘What’s happening here?’ Marvin was on alert.
‘Could this place be the rumored Regis Ruins?’
‘The secret base established by that group of crazy Wizards in the Crimson Wasteland? What kind of experiments did they perform?’
The black forest turned into a den of evil monsters, and the inside of this mountain surprisingly had an aura similar to living Magic Power.
Upon sensing it, Marvin felt that it was a bit inconceivable.
That Jade Banshee was clearly familiar with this place, as evidenced by how she had gone in without any hesitation. And what she was planning was most likely related to the Regis Ruins.
Marvin began to hesitate.
He came to the Crimson Wasteland to look for Half-God Minsk, while tempering himself on the way.
The greatest benefit of being in the Crimson Wasteland was the time flow being faster than Feinan’s.
By getting some experience here, he could fight all kinds of experts and receive some Comprehension to increase his level.
When he returned to Feinan, his strength would most likely be on a whole new level.
And at that time, it would be a lot easier to face the descending Divine Servants.
He didn’t forget that he was already on the blacklist of the Black Dragon God, Dream God, and other powerful Gods.
But that aura coming from the Regis Ruins kept enticing Marvin.
It had to be said that Marvin had a very adventurous nature.
He craved the unknown. Besides the constantly impending crises, this was one of the reasons he was able to progress so quickly in Feinan.
Seeing some ancient ruins before him, he couldn’t help wanting to go in.
‘After so many years, even if there were any terrible mechanisms or guardians, they should have most likely disappeared.’
‘Although that Jade Banshee is a caster, she shouldn’t be directly related to the Regis Ruins. Since she was able to enter smoothly, then there shouldn’t be a problem. Being a bit cautious would be good too.’
Marvin then made a decision.
But he didn’t just rush into the tunnel. He used a skill first!
[Ruler’s Wrath]!
That powerful skill could not only turn him into a giant, but could also make him small like an ant.
After shrinking, Marvin became extremely light.
[Witchcraft – Flight]!
He used the Witchcraft ability granted to him by the Witch Queen’s Tear before flying quietly into the cave like a dragonfly.
…
Behind the entrance was a simple tunnel.
Judging from the tunnel’s slope, it should lead to the core of the mountain.
Marvin sped up and reached the end of the tunnel after ten minutes.
He flew out of the tunnel and arrived in a huge room!
No one would have thought that this seemingly ordinary mountain was hiding such a vast dungeon!
Marvin controlled himself and looked at everything around him.
He already couldn’t find words to describe how imposing the dungeon was.
Although a large part of it was in ruins, he could make out from the wreckage of the wooden walls that this had once been a magnificent city.
Stalactites were hanging down from the ceiling with jewels embedded on them that emitted a faint light.
These jewels, along with the fluorescent moss on the ground, made up the dungeon’s rare light source.
The huge city was built on an uneven underground area, and from the scale of this dungeon, it might have been able to host 50 000 to 60 000 people at its peak.
This was a very exaggerated number. After all, the underground resources were quite poor. Most dungeons were unable to provide for such a huge population!
What shook Marvin the most was the building that stood out in the center of the city!
Maybe building wasn’t a suitable word to describe it.
Because Marvin could feel it pulsating!
It was a grotesque but irregular sphere that left a profound impression.
It was bound in the center of the cities by countless iron chains, and a tube was running through the surface of the sphere.
‘Could this be… The rumored Dungeon Core?’
Marvin closed his eyes and heard the throbbing sound.
That thing was like a pulsating heart!
This all felt like an illusion.
What exactly had those Regis casters done here back then?
Suddenly, a green light flashed before Marvin.
