Chapter 1216 Odd Reaction
Grey told Cori to stay close to him, walking with the group.
The Old man in the Eighth stage walked up to the golden robed man, "Where did you encounter the danger?"
"Everyone, please stay alert. The constructs attacked me while I was exploring the place." The golden robed man said to everyone, he added, "This place was a very prosperous City while its occupants were still here. There is no sign of a battle, nor did I see any bones during the last time I was searching the place. But I wasn"t able to get too far before I was stopped by the constructs."
"Take note, there might be more. If they are more than we can handle. We will go out and regroup again. There"s no use forcing our way in and having people die for no reason."
Everyone nodded to the golden robed man"s words. No one wanted to die a meaningless death. All those who came here all came for the possible benefits they stood a chance to gain, if they were killed and didn"t even get the chance to even see what they came here for, it would be a shame.
The party started to advance into the place, each carefully looking around, alert, prepared for a possible battle. If there were constructs here, then it meant there was something left here worth protecting. If these constructs had the strength of a Peak Rank Seven Elementalist, then whatever they were protecting was very valuable.
Grey looked at each house curiously, he almost wanted to go in and check them out, but he didn"t want to take any silly risks. However, this is where Void and the bunny leader comes in. With their adept control of the s.p.a.ce element, even the golden robed man would find it difficult to sense them as long as he wasn"t trying to.
With the golden robed man"s focus on the constructs, Grey knew it would be very hard for him to focus on something else. So he sent the duo to head out and check the houses and see if there was anything of importance. If they didn"t find anything, he told them to take books if they found any.
Void and the bunny leader naturally didn"t think books were of any value, hence he had to remind them. There might be some information inside. Well, that all depends on if he is able to decipher it.
Grey acted like nothing happened. He was slightly alarmed when the golden robed man suddenly paused at the exact moment Void and the bunny leader left, but after looking around, he continued walking.
He heaved a sigh of relief seeing the golden robed man continue.
"Try to stay hidden, Void, this guy is powerful." He sent a telepathic message to Void.
"I know. Don"t worry, we were careless when coming out, he won"t sense us again, unless we want him to." Void replied.
Grey didn"t communicate with them any longer and continued following the group while looking around. While walking, he suddenly saw a figure walk over to him. He was not the only one who brought someone below the Elemental Venerable Plane for the trip. The golden robed man brought his three children. Grey expected this when he saw them in the Hall, so he wasn"t surprised.
"Your little sister is something else." The figure said with a soft voice.
Grey took a look at the delicate looking figure standing before him, it was the daughter of the golden robed man. He should be around two or three years older than she is.
"Yeah, a true gem." Grey agreed with her statement.
Even in the Aurora Continent, Cori would be adored wherever she went and the top Factions or even Families wouldn"t mind fighting just to take her into their ranks.
"I"m Miya." The daughter of the golden robed man introduced herself, stretching out her hand. I think you should take a look at
Grey shook it, "Grey."
He took the chance to take a good view of the young lady standing in front of him. She was donning in a blue gown and her long golden hair fell down all the way to her waist. Her brown eyes brought out her pretty face.
After Grey"s initial glance, he looked forward once again.
Miya didn"t seem to mind Grey"s actions and asked, "Where are you from? I"ve always wondered how the foreign realm is."
"The Aurora Continent, it isn"t really different from this place." Grey replied keeping an eye out for any possible attack.
"Really? I asked father if he could let me go, but unfortunately, there was no way we can leave, unless…" Miya paused and looked at Grey, "We are taken by a foreigner."
"Hmm, our worlds are two different places in terms of energy. Here you guys use the chaos energy while in my world, we use essence energy." Grey continued looking around, occasionally giving Miya a glance to show some interest. Even though he wasn"t too interested in speaking with her, it would be wrong to chase her, especially after she left her group and came over.
"Essense energy?" Miya wore a curious face as she asked.
Grey wanted to explain to her, but thinking about it, he brought out an essence stone and pa.s.sed it to her, "This is an essense stone, it"s filled with essence energy."
Miya took it from her, it was almost the same as chaos stones, just that it was filled with a different energy.
She tried to sense it, and while trying to manipulate the energy in it, she yelped softly, covering her mouth in the process.
"It burns." She whispered. ????????.???
"Huh?" Grey looked at her, a little surprised.
He had given Cori an essence stone before and she didn"t have such a reaction. She was even able to absorb it at a crazy speed.
"It burns. This energy of yours burns." Miya said.
"That"s odd." Grey said internally. He was able to absorb a large amount of chaos energy and didn"t feel any discomfort, and so was Void and the bunny leader.
Even Cori was able to absorb essence energy with no issues, why was the reaction of Miya different then?
