Chapter 569: Closing

Souta looked down as he waved his hands. The souls of the dead people were sucked into his earring.

Alice and the rest had already left to attack the bases of the council. Distracting the council was very crucial to him so that he could move freely to get his equipment. In the game, he was already a commander of the Mechanic Country when he retrieved these two pieces of equipment so he was pretty strong that he didn’t need anyone to distract the council.

He just snowballed this place with an overwhelming power that the council and magna race couldn’t do anything to him.

Ohm!

Ten black balls appeared behind Souta. It spun around as his body shot into the distance like a missile. His speed had decreased compared to the time he was fighting Rowan. It wasn’t because he got slower but the density of the mana on this planet was higher.

A normal person from a planet without mana would be crushed into dust by the pressure of the mana on this planet.

Swoosh!

Half an hour later, Souta arrived in the center part of the floating islands area. There was a gigantic floating in the center but his target wasn’t on that island. In fact, it was beneath the ground.

On the ground, there was a volcano spewing lava nonstop creating a pool of lava in the surrounding area. That’s the entrance to it, the mouth of the volcano.

‘What are you trying to find in this place?’ Saya asked him doubtfully. Sometimes she couldn’t understand the reason of his action. Even though she was always beside him, she was still left behind like the others.

“Just like how I find you? I’m trying to find a piece of artifacts.” Souta smiled as he shot towards the volcano.

Boom!

The volcano erupted as ashes and lava burst out of its mouth. The tremor it caused in the surrounding area made some of the tall rocky areas collapse.

He didn’t care about all the magma or the ashes. He simply swam through it until he reaches 10,000 meters below the surface.

Swoosh!

The mana density in the area got higher and the pressure tightened heavily so Souta stopped moving. He felt like he had reached the right place.

If he wasn’t sure, it was in this area. The map that he found in the game was indicating that this was the right place. He closed his eyes and tried to remember how did he enter that place.

After a few moments, he opened his eyes and he looked down. A pile of blue crystal shining through the wall was just a meter below him.

“Here.”

He floated in front of it and he shot a normal punch. The crystals in front of him crumbled as it lost its color.

‘A fake crystal wall…’

What appeared before his eyes was a dark passage leading to an unknown place. Even Saya was observing the passage without bothering Souta as she felt that there was something dangerous within this place.

“This feeling… It’s here.”

Souta stepped his foot in the dark passage. Instantly, the walls shone and emitted a dim light illuminating the entire passage. Then, the entrance behind him was blocked by layers of soil.

He turned around and knocked his knuckle on the soil that blocked the entrance behind him.

“If I didn’t find the exit then I will be forever buried in this place.”

Souta squinted his eyes as he recalled that the walls, ceilings, and floor of this place had [Impact Transfering] and [Energy Transfering]. It means that if he punches the wall with all of his might the impact would scatter in the entire mass of land. Even his best feram would scatter in the whole continent.

In other words, if he didn’t have enough strength to destroy the whole continent he wouldn’t be able to shatter the walls. This was a high world, not some low world so his strength wasn’t as destructive as how it was in a low world.

Actually, completing this place was easy. He just needs to find the core of this dungeon and destroy it. The [Yin Yang Bracelet] and [Solid State Hunter Boots] were both located in the core. There were only golems guarding it and those golems had simple attack patterns.

Souta walked for dozens of minutes until he found three passages before his eyes. He didn’t even think about it as he walked straight onto the passage in the middle. From his memories, this was the right path.

The complicated passage of this place was already solved by his past self. So he didn’t have any problem at all.

A few minutes later, he arrived on the second puzzle. He was in a spacious room with a statue of a woman holding the head of the man in the center.

There were three doors and each door had an altar beside it.

Souta pulled out the vajra sword and cut the head of the statue. He picked up the head of the woman and the man before he went to the door on the left side.

He placed the head of the woman on the altar and the door opened. In this puzzle, he thought that the head of the man was the key to one of the doors. He never thought before that he could cut down the head of the statue so he was stuck for quite some time in the past.

All the doors could be opened by the man’s head but all of it resulted in dead-end. The head of the woman was the key and the head of the man was the key to the next puzzle.

There’s nothing else to do here so he left the spacious room. He continued to clear puzzles after puzzles until he arrived at the last and final puzzle where the core was situated.

Almost three hours had passed since he entered this dungeon and he completed a total of fifty-three puzzles. He couldn’t remember all the fifty-three puzzles so he had to rack his brains to clear those puzzles that he couldn’t remember. And that’s the reason why it took him three hours.

“I didn’t think that it would take me a few hours to arrive at this place…”

Souta muttered with a dissatisfied look. He wondered how the others were faring against the council. He just hope that they were holding pretty well on their own.

‘You’re dissatisfied that you’re too slow to complete those puzzles yet in my perspective you’re already fast. I didn’t even know how did you know most of the puzzles in this place.’ Saya said to him.

“Let’s leave it like that but for now…”

A smile formed on Souta’s face as he stepped forward. In front of his eyes, a huge triangular object was floating on the edge of the room. It was inside a cylindrical glass and it was emitting a huge amount of mana in the surrounding area.

The last room was a contest of strength.

Boom!

The room shook heavily as three humanoid ten-meter tall metallic golems emerged from the walls. The glowing eyes of the golems stared right at Souta. They energy that they were emitting was too dense that a peak S-rank was nothing compared to it.

Souta’s eyes adjusted as he glared at the three gigantic golems.

“The energy level of these three is higher than S-rank. Comparable to some shackled realm but the combat prowess is lower than S-rank. Too predictable. Don’t have a problem dealing with it.”

It would take ten minutes, no, five minutes of his full power to finish these three.

Without any hesitation, Souta’s body inflated as savage black-colored armor covered his body. These golems’ power level was higher than S-rank but lower than SS-rank. It means that his normal form would have a hard time fighting these three. His attack wouldn’t probably work against them.

Boom!

“Greetings!”

Souta wrapped the vajra sword in layers of flesh before he swung it towards the nearest golem.

Bang!

Using his eyes, he could see the core of the golems. The weakness to defeat them easily but to shatter these cores, he needed a powerful attack to pierce the layer of energy wrapped around it which was impossible in his normal form.

The golem crashed on the wall as it received Souta’s attack. The other two simply waved their metallic hands at him. It was simple and slow. Slow for him but fast for people at A-rank level.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The room was large enough to contain these golems so Souta’s body could move freely in this space. The walls, ceilings, and walls were tough that he didn’t need to worry about needless destruction.

The golems shoot beams from their eyes and Souta shoot [Bestrou] from the tip of his sword.

Boom!

The power of their attack was too powerful yet the spacious room was still unmoving. Well, the impact or shockwaves of their battle were transferred in the entire land causing a high magnitude earthquake on the surface.

The floating islands were unaffected by it but the bases of the magna race and council on the ground suffered the most. The earthquake wasn’t stopping at all, in fact, it kept getting stronger every second.
