Chapter 394 Part 10: Mystic Ruins
From MC's perspective:
The wizard was unconscious. Seeing that a hint of disappointment flashes in my eyes. I had planned to collect intel from him. Guess, I have to rely on the information in my hands.
After a few minutes, the wizard who was wearing a cape breathed his final breath and lost his life. Then I snatched the pass from his neck and placed it inside the system space.
The condition of the worm monster was even worse. The crystal gem was crushed by the spell attack. But fortunately, now I got 6 more passes.
I know this was not enough to rank in the trial. I have to collect more. After contemplating for a moment, I decided to leave. I was hesitant. Because this building has secrets to explore.
But I don't want to waste my precious time here. After glancing at the building, I immediately left.
Time passed,
After a long journey, I came to a stop. I'm going to rest here tonight. Again the environment was the same without human habitat. But I'm fortunate that I didn't encounter monsters on the way.
Two days later,
I came to a place where I saw concentric walls. The walls are the borders of some ancient town or city. But looking at those walls one thing is certain this place was old.
I don't know how old I am. But the broken walls were the result of aging time. Right now, I'm standing quite far from the actual place.
Apart from the building, I want to see the activities of the wizards. And as I had guessed, I see so many dots gathering in front of the walls.
Those moving dots were none other than the wizards who entered these mystic ruins. Suddenly, a realization struck my mind.
From the wicked wizards, I came to know that the main site was a place where a lot of higher-level wizards lost their lives.
So now exploring this place is nothing but suicidal. But I don't have to act like others. I just have to collect many more passes within two days before the trial comes to an end.
After gaining some clarity, I decided to check my status for a second.
"System, show me the status panel," I said to the system.

A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Looking at the status, I nodded my head slightly. My mana reserve is full. And for the past two days, I didn't fight anyone.
Which comes helpful at this moment. After closing the status panel, I decided to move.
Meanwhile,
There are a lot of wizards gathered in front of the massive earth wall. Including the wizards from the Weapon Palace and Royal Force Hall.
Outside, two forces are in cooperation. But here everyone is keeping an eye on each other. Nobody wants to lose their passes.
Apart from them, there are a few wizards from miscellaneous forces. Everyone formed a team after seeing the situation.
Rumble~
Suddenly, three wizards made an appearance. They were none other than wizards from the Yellow River Academy.
Leading the team was Lara White. Behind her, one male and one female-level wizard are following her.
Lara White ignored the gazes at everyone and walked opposite those two teams. "Unfortunately, there was no news from others," She said to herself.
Suddenly, the image of Vincent Carey comes to her mind. "I wonder what he is doing right now?" She mumbled under her breath.
Right now her strength is close to the peak stage. It will be a matter of time before she touches the limit again.
Once she reaches level-5, she will gain the opportunity to learn more advanced magic spells.
While she was lost in thoughts. The male wizard behind her watches the movement of others. His name is Don Cline, level-4 Transformation Wizard.
He was in the same special class as Lara and Vincent. The one female wizard standing beside him is in the same class as the wall. Her name is Eva Casey, level-4 Water Elemental Wizard.
These two are monitoring the movements of others.
At the same time, the wizards from the weapon palace and the Royal Force Hall spotted the Yellow River Academy Wizards.
These two wizards academies have 6 wizards each in their team. Equal in numbers, so they are not moving against each other.
But if it was some other weaker team, then their intentions were different.
On the Weapon Palace's side,
The wizard holding the great sword was the one leading the team. His name is Alan Todd. He has a well-built body capable of carrying the great sword.
If it were other forces they wouldn't recognize Lara White and her team. But the two academies were different. The elites in each academy were aware of strong wizards in other academies.
Lara White's identity is especially important. She is the Taboo-Wizard. As far as he knows she is a level-4 wizard. Currently, she is outnumbered.
If he defeats her in front of everyone, then he would gain a huge reputation. When this thought rose in his heart, he decided to implement it.
But before that Alan glances at the Royal Force Hall. He thinks those guys have similar thoughts to him. It would be stupid to act alone.
So he is watching the Royal Force Hall's movements.
On the Royal Force Hall's side,
There was no one leading the group. Because their leader was not here at this moment. So the group was confused at this moment. Some of them recognized Lara White right away.
But no one wants to take initiative.
"Oh"
"Who do we have here?"
At this moment, a female voice woke up everyone from their thoughts.
"Our team leader is here," The Royal Force Hall wizards gathered around her quickly.
She is Kathy Rose, level-4 veils of mist wizard. When her teammates surrounded her. She ignored her gaze and walked toward Lara White.
Her actions attracted the attention of others.
Don and Eva saw her coming towards them.
"Lara, the troublesome person is here," Eva said to Lara who was deeply pondering something.
Upon hearing that, Lara White furrowed her eyebrows. She raised her head and turned toward Kathy.
"She is here again," A gloomy glint flashes in Lara's eyes. It's not the first time these two encountered each other.
Two days ago, they came across each other. But due to circumstances, they didn't fight with each other.
But now the circumstances were different. The fight is inevitable.
Lara wasn't afraid. But if everyone joined hands together, then the situation would be different. She doesn't want to consume mana before exploring the site.
Kathy Rose saw through her thoughts and let out a bell-like laugh, "Ha..Ha...Ha.."
"Lara"
"This time you can't avoid me. I always wanted to fight against the Taboo Wizard. And the mystic ruin gave me this opportunity," Kathy said in a calm tone.
Her voice was not loud but still reached everyone's ears. In particular the wizards from the small groups.
After hearing the name, everyone gasped in surprise. Only the Weapon Palace and Royal Force Hall remain unfazed.
Lara furrowed her beautiful eyebrows. She doesn't want to make a move before knowing the Weapon Palace's intentions.
The atmosphere suddenly becomes tense.
Everyone begins to size up other teams.
Kathy Rose frowned. She is displayed by Lara White's response. Suddenly, she turned toward the Weapon Palace and recognized Alan Todd.
A cruel plan comes to her mind. As Lara suspected, she intends to form a team with the Weapon Palace.
"Your name is Alan right?"
"Why don't we join hands to defeat others and collect their passes?"
Kathy Rose proposed. Hearing that everyone was stunned. No one would have expected Kathy Rose to come up with this proposal.
Alan Todd's mouth twitched. He was expecting something different to happen. Earlier he wants the Royal Force Wizards to test Lara's strength.
Now Kathy's sudden appearance spoiled everything. He revealed a helpless smile on his face. Because he knows Kathy's troublesome magic. He don't want to fight against her.
