The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Chapter 269 : Ch 269: Entering the Desolate Plains of Gahana



Rein, Sophia and Ruby were going to travel in the same car and Ben, Prucia and the little boy would travel on the same danger rover too. So in total, two cars would be traversing the road. But still Rein ended up buying three cars instead of just two because he wanted to have some spare cars in hand just in case.

From his previous experience, Rein had noticed that there were various types of dangers in the Desolate Plains of Gahana that could destroy their danger rover. Rein and his party were lucky that their Rover was not destroyed but Ben was not as lucky. The current Rover that he was using was actually the same rover as before but most of the parts were changed after that incident.

Ben told them that the first destination was a cave at the outer area of the Desolate Plains of Gahana. Last time when she was running away from here, Prucia had hid a few very important things there which would come in handy at the deeper part of the Desolate Plains.

Agreeing to Ben\'s proposal, Rein increased the speed of the danger rover and went toward the location that Ben sent him. Ben also followed closely behind with his car and superb driving skill.

Obviously monsters appeared on their way to stop their progress. Ben was about to ask Prucia but before he could do so, several blades made out of darkness appeared out of thin air and sliced off all the monsters. Ben was amazed and happy with this display of power.

With Sophia attacking from within the car without even getting out, the speed of the cars did not slow down at all. In just two and a half hours, they managed to reach the designated location without any trouble.

After getting out of the car Rein, Sophia and Ruby started to guard the area while Prucia started to check the whole area for the things she hid here. It was quite a long time ago when she did that so the area had changed quite a bit from that time.

After moving around the area for some time, Prucia was finally able to find a spot and she started digging there. As the ground of the danger zone was exceptionally harder, even a UR grade powerhouse like her was not having an easy time. So Ruby helped her and both of them started to dig together.

After digging together for some time, finally they were able to find a small box. After picking up the box, Prucia became very happy. She was relieved that this thing was still here. Ruby also looked at the box with curious eyes as she was quite interested about what this thing was.

This box was completely made out of a black rock. There was no place to put a key in so Ruby had no idea how this box was locked and what was stored inside it. Seeing that Ruby was interested in it, Prucia handed the box to her with a happy smile on her face.

Ruby accepted the box and started to check it. First she checked out the toughness of the box and found that it was abnormally sturdy. Even a powerful blessed like her who specialised in physical strength was unable to easily open the box.

Ruby felt that she would still be able to forcefully break it if she tried hard enough but was definitely not going to be easy. And even after thoroughly checking the box, Ruby was unable to find any mechanism to open the box so the only way to open it that came to his mind was to use brute force.

As Prucia had managed to find the thing she was searching for, all the other people who were keeping guard against monsters came to see that this thing was. Before everyone\'s eyes, Prucia created a bright white flame in her hand and as soon as this flame came in contact with the box, the box lit up with a yellow light and immediately a circular cavity appeared on it.

With his limited Eye of Truth, Rein was not able to find out everything about this box but when he saw how Prucia opened it, he was at least able to find how this lock worked. It was created using a special kind of mineral that probably could only be found in the deepest part of the Desolate Plains.

This mineral reacted to the source eternal fire and only then it would open a cavity that was inside it. This mineral was also super hard and only super powerful UR grades were able to break it. So in the whole world, most probably only Prucia and the will of the Desolate Plains of Gahana could open this box.

As for what was inside the box, it was actually a small white bead. It looked very common from outside and no one felt anything special about the bead. Only Rein was able to see that this bead was a bit special and that was only possible because of his Eye of Truth.

Prucia started to explain that this bead was a special item that the will of the Desolate Plains had created just for her. This bead had the ability to amplify the power of the source eternal fire so with this bead with her Prucia would become at least three times stronger than her current self.

Rein asked her to allow him to check the bead out. Prucia handed him the bead without any hesitation and Rein started to check out seriously with his Eye of Truth. After some time he handed the bead back to Prucia and asked her seriously for the reason why she had abandoned the bead before.

Prucia replied that she was not too sure herself and her instincts as a monster told her that taking this bead out would not be a good idea. Rein nodded her head and informed her about some of the hidden functions of this bead that he managed to find out.

First of all, Prucia\'s decision to not bring the bead out was absolutely correct. If this bead went out of the range of the Desolate Plains, it would immediately explode and that explosion would be strong enough to wipe out even a few dozen UR grades.

Other than that it was mostly fine in Rein\'s eyes and that was the reason why he returned it back to her. But still Rein warned her to be careful with this bead as there was a chance that this bead might have something else that even Rein\'s eye of Truth was unable to find out.

So with their increased combat strength, Rein and his team continued going deeper inside the Desolate Plains of Gahana.
