In just a moment, Reiner's vision turned dark.
He felt as if he was instantly dragged into endless darkness by a magical force, and all his senses were dulled.
Junice came to her senses only when she saw flames ignite in the palms of her hands.
"Reiner, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Reiner nodded.
He just felt a little eerie, but other than that he didn't feel any discomfort.
Reiner looked around and found himself in a dark ancient building.
The air was filled with the smell of damp earth, the rough stone walls were covered with moss, and there was a palm-sized spider on the ceiling.
The wooden door outside the passage was already rotten, and he knocked it down with a poke of his staff.
"There may be traps around here, Reiner, be careful."
"Let me explore the way ahead, and you follow behind me to provide light, master." Nora reached out and pulled him back, and walked in front himself.
Several people walked out of the stone house one after another.
Reiner looked around, and what he saw was an old and dilapidated street.
There were rows of ruins on both sides of the road, and further away was a black fog.
There's not even a distinction between day and night in this place.
Everywhere I look is darkness that goes deep into my bones.
Just as Reiner was about to amplify the flame in his hand, Junice stopped him in a low voice: "Try not to attract too much attention in the ruins. I heard there are many difficult skeleton soldiers in here. It will be troublesome if we attract them."
"What is the overall structure of this ruin? I'm a little curious."
Junice carefully observed her surroundings and slowly began to explain, "I heard from my mentor that the Lost City is a sphere emitting a magical barrier, so it should be round.
As for the dams, their diameters range from a few hundred meters to several hundred feet, some large and some small."
"Then how are we going to get back?"
Junice smiled and said, "You've just come in and you're already thinking about leaving?"
Reiner said tactfully: "No, you are the only one familiar with this place. If we get separated by accident, then we don't know how to get out, so we're doomed, right?"
In fact, he was worried that Junice might accidentally die...
"It's simple. There are several magic stones in the ruins that can be used for teleportation. Just find them and use them."
"How do I use it?"
"By physical contact and injecting any kind of magic power into it, you can teleport." Junice blinked.
Reiner probably understood.
When he returns, he must try it himself.
This way, next time he can bring Nora and Martina to explore.
Reiner looked around and asked again, "Where should we go next?"
"Anywhere is fine. I know nothing about this relic."
Reiner thought about it and decided that the most urgent task now was to complete the system task and find the adventurer named Pierre Craig.
He patted Nora's shoulder and whispered, "Can you smell other people? I need to find someone."
Noila raised her head and sniffed around, then whispered, "I can give it a try..."
She led the way in front, and the other three followed closely.
Suddenly, Nora stopped and drew a dagger from her waist.
Martina also drew her greatsword.
Just then, a creaking sound came from the front.
A ragged skeleton stepped out of the darkness.
It has no weapons in its hands.
Nora subconsciously took a step back, and her inner voice drifted into Reiner's ears: (A corpse that... moves?)
In contrast, Martina is much calmer.
