Chapter 39: Darwin and the Road to Firebull City

While to awakeners like Zarek, the Sacrificial Dungeon of Divine Battle might be a horrifying place, but to people who were at second sequence and above, this place was an absolute scam.

The drops in this dungeon were horrendously low—one in a thousand dropped something and that too of no use. As such, there wouldn’t be anyone who visited this dungeon. To prevent dungeon breaks, a fully equipped team of awakeners would be sent by the Awakeners Organization—a power that supervised all of the dungeons on the continent.

As such, the man had never expected this little dungeon of no significance would cause so much trouble.

After a brief look, the man turned his gaze away from the entrance. "It is really completely closed."

"So the record went wrong. There is indeed a way to close all the dungeons forever." The Awakeners Organization had long known of this piece of information, but it could never be verified except today.

However, even though they knew the dungeon could be closed, this topic was considered taboo, especially among the lower brass of the organization.

"My work here is done..." After some time, the middle-aged man muttered. He just had to prepare a report.

Just as he was preparing to walk away, he noticed the fatty Alexander muttering something under his breath with a decisive look in his eyes:

"Never again. I won’t allow people to walk over my dignity..."

The middle-aged man didn’t care about what Alexander was saying. It was just that there was something about him that made him feel threatened.

How was this possible?

The middle-aged man couldn’t understand.

Next moment, the concealment technique vanished and Alexander, even though lost in his thoughts, immediately noticed the presence of the man behind him.

Surprised, he immediately turned around and asked: "Who are you!"

Alexander was incredibly alert. This man was incredibly dangerous.

A smile appeared on the middle-aged man’s face. He simply chuckled and said:

"How rude of me to not introduce myself..."

"Little friend, you can call me Darwin, a junior supervisor at the Awakeners Organization."

"Awakeners Organization...!" Alexander almost yelled. Although he lived in a tiny village, even then he had heard about the Awakeners Organization. It was one of the most powerful forces of the continent.

It was only because of this organization that ordinary people like him could live in peace in a world filled with extraordinary individuals and horrifying monsters.

Although Alexander completely believed the man, he still didn’t let down his guard.

"Young man, I see that you are a responsible awakener. Would you care to explain what happened here?" Darwin said as he pointed at the dungeon behind him.

"This...!" Hearing the question, Alexander hesitated for a moment, but remembered how everyone had left without saying anything. There was no need to hide anything. Moreover, he wasn’t even doing anything wrong—he was just cooperating with the authorities.

So he spilled everything that he knew.

"Interesting, a dungeon inside a dungeon."

Moreover, not just that, he also came to know an interesting piece of news—the youngest son of the Silversword family was responsible for this...

What perfect timing. The expedition of the Beast Continent should also be coming to an end. I am sure Chief would be interested in this...

Thinking up to this point, Darwin’s lips couldn’t help but curl upward automatically.

Then he looked at Alexander in front of him and said with a practiced smile:

"Young man, I see potential in you. Would you like to join the Awakeners Organization and become one of its enforcers?"

Zarek moved silently, looking for something that would help identify where he was. The author didn’t mention much about the region of the Divine Battle dungeon. He needed something for reference.

The sun was about to completely disappear and the silver moon was going to take its place in a matter of time.

I better stop moving for now. Compared to day, the world is even more dangerous during the night.

With that thought, he decided to camp in the wild.

Now that he knew what needed to be done, Zarek quickly found a safe spot. It wasn’t hard to find.

Before the sun could completely set, he had managed to find an abandoned monster lair. Although it was a little smelly, Zarek couldn’t complain as this was better than nothing.

Soon a small fire was lit up and two shadows danced on the walls of the cave.

Suddenly a question echoed:

"Why are you following me...?"

Zarek eyed the high goblin princess with his eyebrows slightly raised.

Zerin had been following him around and helping all the time, and just now she was the one who set up the fire.

For a moment it looked as if Zerin was stunned by the question, then she calmed down and answered with a small smile: "Isn’t it obvious? After all, you have won me in the battle, so now you are mine and isn’t a woman supposed to help her man?"

Zarek simply nodded and added it to the list of weird things that he had experienced in a single day.

After this short conversation, silence once again returned to the cave.

Zarek’s eyes grew distant as he tried to remember everything that he knew about the world at the start of the book.

This world was very similar to Earth ten years ago, but one day monsters appeared. In this chaos, one of the four continents was destroyed. Billions died. The weapons which humans were once proud of were completely useless. Just as everyone was thinking things couldn’t go any worse, dungeons appeared all over the world, pouring out monsters.

What should have been the final nail in the coffin helped humanity survive the disaster. One of the daring few who had dared to barge inside the dungeon awakened class abilities to level up.

These people were later known as pioneers. The founder of the Silversword family, Zarek’s grandfather, was also one such person.

"According to what Brian said, tomorrow is his younger brother’s fourteenth birthday, so there are still two years until he turns sixteen..."

The main story began once Arthur Dreamwalker turned sixteen and left his home in search for his brother.

Of course, he would never find his brother, as Brian would be long dead by then. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Zarek didn’t care about all these things. What really mattered was he now had two years to grow as strong as possible, because two years from now, not only would the main storyline begin, but the world would also face the second apocalypse.

Soon time continued to pass. Without even realizing, it was already next morning.

Zarek set out, his destination the Silversword City.

If he wasn’t wrong, in the year ninety-eight after the first apocalypse, the Silversword family lost one of the biggest mines. He had to stop this from happening at any cost.

But before that, he needed to find where he was currently. If he was not wrong, the Dungeon of Divine Battle was somewhere in the north, and the Silversword City was at the heart of the continent. To reach there in the shortest time possible, he had to use the teleportation station.

The Awakeners Organization, with the help of other big forces, had managed to establish multiple teleportation stations that connected the entire continent. In case of emergencies, warriors could be immediately deployed.

This system had proven extremely effective. Since the teleportation stations, the number of big incidents had gone down significantly.

Zarek and Zerin moved. Whenever others passed, they would look in Zarek’s direction with disgust or sheer vigilance, before hurriedly leaving.

"Hmm!" Zarek frowned as he examined himself. His clothes were almost completely destroyed. He looked no less than a beggar.

It appears before finding a teleportation station, I need to find some decent pair of clothes...

Just as Zarek was examining his own condition, he heard the sound of someone speeding from behind.

Before he could even turn his head, an extremely arrogant voice came from behind: "Get out of the way, dirty bastard...!"

Zarek instinctively sidestepped and what looked like a horse carriage brushed past him at extreme speed, almost crushing him to bits if his body hadn’t reacted on its own.

Zerin also finally reacted. Her face was pale as she examined Zarek in worry, before asking: "Are you okay, Master...?"

"Not okay at all. Several of my ribs have been broken..."

Zarek said, his eyes flashing with a sharp glint. This carriage could help him reach the teleportation station fast.

The owner should hand the carriage to him as compensation.

Zarek’s thoughts churned. His action was a little deliberate—if he acted completely opposite to the former Zarek, it could create problems.

Meanwhile, his lips moved and a fireball appeared above his head. The carriage wasn’t able to move far away when the fireball crashed directly in front of it. With a screech, the carriage came to an abrupt halt.

Smoke and dust filled the air. The coachman jumped down from the carriage and glared in Zarek’s direction fiercely.

He was the same man who had arrogantly warned Zarek a moment ago.

"Are you out of your mind, you thief? Do you know this carriage is carrying Firebull Governor’s daughter?"

The coachman angrily shouted. The aura around him flared, but shouting was all he did. Just from the fireball just now, he knew that Zarek was no pushover.

Meanwhile, Zarek completely ignored the loud-mouth coachman, his eyes lighting up as soon as he heard the words "Firebull City."

Every city having a governor also had a teleportation station.
