Chapter 2462 The Gatekeeper


Chapter 2462 The Gatekeeper  Buzz Buzz Buzz

I passed through the one-room after another, spending a very expensive formation ink to break these rooms.

I am not wasting even a second; my avatar would always have a formation ready the moment I walked out of the room and moved to the other.

I have already made the map of the place, and since I am moving through already broken rooms, I just have to create the formation through my air-pen. It is quite easy but also very regretful when I see the hundreds of rooms filled with treasures.

There are hundreds of rooms that are filled with precious treasure, but I could not take any of them with me. I had to leave the underground repository before the Grimms arrived; it would be extremely troublesome if they found me.

This time, the party they will send will surely be strong, and I don’t want to risk my life because of my greed for the precious resources. 

I have already gotten far more than I had imagined it to be from this ruin. Even though I am disappointed in leaving these treasures behind, I understand that they are not more precious than my life.

Not to mention, more than ten days have already passed since I have come to this ruin, and I have to return as soon as possible.

While I have made the preparation for the fifteen days, it was a bit of a stretch, especially in these earlier days when people just got the hang of what they had to do. If I stayed away too long, I feared something might go bad, and I could not afford it.

The project is on an extremely tight schedule I could not afford any hiccup. It would end up very costly for us if that were to happen.

An hour and twenty minutes passed when I reached the exit; now, there was only a distance of one room between it and me. If everything goes right, then I will be out of this underground repository within a few minutes, and after that, I will activate my beacon and get the hell out of this ruin.

Buzz!

The door of the room opened, and I walked inside before walking out of the other side of the room; now, I could see the door.

It is one of three doors through which I walked inside, like the door of the underground garden; I could open it without formation, but before I do that. I activated my boosts and defensive method just as a precaution.

On the other side, it might be an empty hall as I had seen it a few days ago or littered with flesh golem or, even worse, the Grimm Monsters; I did not want to take any chances.

Click!

I took a deep breath and opened the door before taking a step out of it, but just as I did, the smile on my face froze, and the aura of the High Grandmaster focused on me.

’Hasd, was right; there is really a human rat here,” said the Golden Fire Werewolf that had appeared in front of me.

It shocked me and also made me frown; I was shocked because barely two days had been since the Bullman had disappeared, and the Grimm was already inside waiting. Which shouldn’t have happened, considering it took more than two days for old Foxman to break the formation of the repository’s main entrance.

It means it had come with one of the most powerful runic grandmasters of the Grimms, or it had come even before the Bullman got dealt by Nero. 

Likely after Ashlyn and I killed the Grimm Monsters outside sneakily, one of them was able to escape, and considering the importance of treasure inside it, the Grimms have sent the other party as the precautious.

”There seemed to be an awful lot of Grandmaster from the Golden Fire Werewolf tribe,” I said as I took the other step forward. 

I had thought about taking a step back and closing the door, and I would have been able to do it, but doing that would have served no purpose. As it is not going to leave, even if I stayed around for a few days and its only exited, I would have to enter through it sooner or later.

Waiting would have been no problem, even would have been a great blessing. If it had not been for me being on a tight schedule.

”Haven’t you heard? Our tribe has received a great blessing; in the future, there will be even more of us, but sadly, you will not be there to see the glory of us, Golden Fire Werewolf Tribe,” It said back as incinerating golden aura swirl around it.

Its answer couldn’t help but make me frown; in recent months, there has been an unusual increase in the powerhouses from the Golden Fire Werewolf tribe; all of them are either Masters or Grandmasters.

Some in the council say this is the sign of something big, something hidden, while others are saying it is the result of being Golden Fire Werewolf being the leader of the coven. The leader controls the resources, and the tribe of a leader always thrives, so the unusual increase is nothing of a surprise.

I didn’t know what to think, and I did not spend any time on it, as currently, there was a very powerful enemy standing between me and the door.

I do not have the strength to beat or even suppress it, but I would still need to get to the door and open it to walk through it. 

”I guess you won’t let me walk through the door?” I asked, “No,” It replied with a toothed smile.

”You are not going anywhere except for the underworld from here,” It said, and a torrent of golden fire released from its, and a gigantic head werewolf had formed above its head.

”Hope you have a safe travel to the underworld, human,” It said and sent the fiery werewolf head at me.
