Chapter 3242 Goodbye
"I will miss you, Jordan," said Vana as hugged me with tears dripping from her face.
"I will miss you too, little one," I said as I hugged her. I am really going to miss her; in the month I had been here, I have grown quite close to the young girl.
She had become a kind of sister to me.
"Do you really have to go?" asked Reyana as I let go of the hug. "Yes, I am not powerful enough to resist the binds of the Earth Sovereign," I replied with a smile.
"If only that crystal took me to the Earth Sovereign," she said and sighed as she looked at me worriedly.
"Don"t worry. I will be fine." I said to her. She nodded before taking me to hug and did not let go for a couple of seconds.
"Will I see you again?" she asked. "In a short time, unlikely," I answered truthfully. I plan to escape from the clutches of the organization.
So, even if I returned to the city, I will be in a different ident.i.ty and will not contact them for their safety. I have already put them in danger, being with them.
I don"t want to increase their trouble even further.
"Take care," she said, wiping her tears. "I will," I said and wiped the tears from my eyes.
"See you soon, both of you," I said and walked out of the house, where I had stayed for nearly a month.
I am going to miss it a lot.
They have asked me to reach the destination, and I have about an hour. I will be there in twenty minutes; it is enough for me to calm my emotion and present there in my best emotional state.
There are a couple of things I have to do, but three are most important.
First, is to gather as many as resources I could. The second is to survive, and the third is to find an exit. I don"t know whether I would be able to achieve all three, considering I have no idea about the ruin it is.
It might be an extremely dangerous one, and I am going to die; nothing could be said.
This is why my priority would be to reach the limit and make a breakthrough.
I have finished with the inheritance, and the treatment of forbidden energy is also nearly finished. Four days and I will be done, and I already have resources for it, thanks to Reyana.
Speaking of resources, I have left something for her. It will reveal itself in the evening.
There are a couple of resources there that will be helpful to the young girl and her mother. Like Essence metal fruits, stainless lotuses of both kinds and a few other things.
I have also left a few ounces of bubbling tar soil with a note of what it could do.
The note will burn to ashes the moment she finished reading it; I couldn"t take the risk with a resource like that. I hope she uses those resources wisely and she will.
The next time, I will meet mother and daughter; they will be completely different.
Within two years, Reyana will become a full-fledged Peak Sovereign; a powerhouse, with a very good chance of reaching the Earth Sovereign.
Vana will also have a bright future, I have left her something. That will increase the chances of her const.i.tution breaking the boundary and reaching the High Const.i.tution.
Whether that will happen, I don"t know, but I truly hope it does.
Time pa.s.sed, and around fifteen minutes later, I reached the place. An opened group, which is being guarded by the Sovereign and had Earth Sovereign keeping an eye.
"You can go inside," said the blue-skin Sovereign, the moment I reached. I did not even have to stop.
It just scans his soul sense at my band and lets me go inside.
The open ground is huge; the value of the such prime real estate in the middle of the city is quite expensive, but nothing to the organization, who owned the city and everything.
Soon, I reached the place, which is shown on my map, and to my surprise, there are already a few hundred have gathered.
Some looked at me, but others kept talking to each other and stared at the teleportation gate in the middle.
I stopped and looked at these people; not all of them are Primary III. There are quite a sizable number of sovereigns present. It means the ruin is at least Sovereign grade.
I did not speak to anybody; I just sat down on one of the stones and waited while watching and listening to people around me.
In just a few minutes, I have found a couple of things. I saw that nearly half of the people have bands like me, while the other half are affiliated with the organization and are joining of their own will.
Which is not surprising, giving the opportunity to explore the virgin ruins.
I am quite excited about it, to be honest, and waiting for the call, while spending the comfortable days in Reyana"s house.
I did not forget my purpose in captivity of the cell and the open city. I have to get stronger fast. So, I could meet my family; this unexplored ruin will help me with that.
As time pa.s.sed, more and more people come, and by the time when only five minutes till the deadline, over thousands, have appeared.
One hundred and two of them were Sovereign, which is quite a high number among the Primary.
Finally, at the right time, the Sovereign standing by the gate moved and activated the teleportation gate.
"Get inside," he said and without saying any words, or causing chaos, people begin to enter inside.
The first ones to enter are sovereigns, of course. After they entered, use Primary-III and begin to walk into the gate.
It took a few minutes for my number to come, as I was standing pretty far behind.
I was among the last hundred.
I entered the gate and reached the other side a moment later. What I saw couldn"t change my expression.
I am an underground, and it is a mine. If those greyish-blue walls were any proof, we are in an oxfowl mine.
"Have they fooled us?" I couldn"t help but ask myself. They have told us they are taking us to the ruin, but instead sent us to the mine.
If that was the case, then why set us free? They should have sent the criminals directly here from the jail.
I am not the only one thinking about that question, but n.o.body dares to ask it under the visible pressure of the Earth Sovereign.
Instead of worrying myself with the question, I looked around. There are eight teleportation formations and from them, people are coming out and gathering in the cavern.
They kept coming for over fifteen minutes before they finally stopped.
The number of people here has reached slightly over forty thousand and around 60% of people here are like me.
They all have the band in their hands.
It is not Primary-III, but also Sovereigns. They all come from the same gate; they seemed to have been kept in a separate place.
One of them is quite familiar to me; it is my old neighbor, and he had made a breakthrough into the Sovereign.
