Chapter 1448 Do Not Touch Anything
As the group was passing through the city, they could see beast cores, battered armor, and weapons all over the ground. Chills ran up their spines.
Furthermore, it was creepy. Even though they did not see any corpses anywhere, they were pretty sure that vicious killings had taken place there in the past.
I understand now. Most likely, Bliss City must have been destroyed by demon beasts. No wonder there are so many beast cores around…
The raspy voice rang out in Edgar’s head once again.
“Demon beasts?” Edgar was stunned. How could such a great place like Bliss City be destroyed by demon beasts? Is it true that the demon beasts from that era were really that powerful?
Edgar bent down to pick up a damaged helmet and tightened his grip.
To his surprise, the helmet did not disintegrate after thousands of years. In fact, it was still very solid. Given Edgar’s skill as a Martial Arts Marquis, he was unable to crush the helmet to pieces.
“This is unbelievable,” exclaimed Edgar in astonishment.
Astrid, who had been walking behind him, was equally shocked by what she saw. Hence, she got down and picked up a piece of a broken magic sword.
That magic sword had been sitting around for thousands of years. Rightfully, it should be covered in rust and stains. However, the broken sword still looked sparkling new and even emitted an intimidating aura.
Astrid tried to split the sword with force. Yet, the broken sword remained intact!
She could not help but find it incredible. If their armor and weapons can be so hardy, just imagine how powerful the owners of these pieces of equipment could have been. Their cultivation levels must have been startling.
What about those people who have damaged these weapons and armor? They must have been even more frightening.
At the thought of that, Astrid felt shivers down her spine. She had no idea what she might encounter later on.
The lot of them might be Martial Arts Marquis, but over there, they might not even get the chance to escape.
Very soon, they arrived at the entrance of the palace. Their gazes were fixed on the closed door. For a moment, no one dared to step forward and open it.
In the meantime, Jared, who was in the palace, became anxious. He could sense the presence of Zion and the others at the entrance.
“Renee, when a fight breaks out, you have to find a chance and escape. Please don’t stay here…” Jared reminded her.
“Jared, are these people here to kill you?” asked the befuddled Renee.
He nodded. “That’s right. These people are from the Warriors Alliance of Jadeborough.”
When Renee heard that, she was filled with anger. “They are the ones who have taken Josephine away, aren’t they?”
Jared nodded once again. Earlier on, he had told Renee about the kidnapping incident of Josephine.
“I won’t leave. I want to stay here with you and kill all of them to avenge Josephine.”
Renee’s eyes were filled with so much anger that her body exuded a white glow!
At that moment, Jared could actually sense an iciness moving closer toward him. It was so overwhelming that he had no choice but to back away from Renee.
By the look of it, the frosty constituent of Renee had become even purer after she experienced the Ice Seal.
“Let’s find a place to hide first and see what happens.”
Jared then dragged Renee with him and hid behind the throne. At that exact moment, the door of the palace was being pushed open.
Once the door was opened, Zion and the rest of them saw beast cores lying everywhere. The only difference was their raw appearance. They looked as if they had been recently removed from the insides of demon beasts.
However, no one was interested in the beast cores. Instead, they scanned around to see if they could find any magical items.
The first thing that caught Edgar’s eye was the throne. He could not help but walk toward it.
“Hahaha! This is a rare magical item indeed…”
Edgar laughed loudly, but his laughter sounded odd and old.
“Edgar, don’t touch anything,” Zion warned him when he saw Edgar walking toward the throne.
Zion was well aware of the hidden traps that were concealed within ancient ruins. It would be wise not to touch anything unless absolutely necessary.
