Runemaster in the Last Days-Chapter 324: Going Alone

Swish! Slash!

Several magic beasts were killed.

Riya looked at these magic beasts and shook her head. They were only rank 2 and it was too weak in her opinion.

And she was heading in the direction of City B based on her memory.

As for the matter of making a map…

That might have to wait until later.

"The magic beasts that roamed around the cracks have become much stronger in such a short period of time." Riya tossed these magic beasts' corpses into her world.

She felt that she had improved very quickly.

But these magic beasts told her very clearly that she was not fast enough. If there were more and more higher ranked magic beasts coming out on the surface of the Green Planet, they might not be prepared to face them.

After all, some talented people had only reached rank 2.

Was there anyone who had reached rank 3 aside from these people who returned from that world?

Riya didn't know.

Oh, she didn't calculate those magicians from the Magic Association. Not because they were not powerful but simply because she didn't want to remember any of them.

As for Martial Arts Association, they might have some powerful people.

But neither of these two association sent the powerful people to City A Base.

It seemed that they were already comfortable with Samuel in power. And with Peter swaggering in, there would be no magic beasts that could defeat the two of them.

Swish! Slash!

The formation was triggered and Riya simply tossed the magic beast's corpse into her world.

In order not to waste her mana on her journey, Riya used the formation plate that she had made before.

*roar* <Master, there's a fluctuation energy on the front>

Mo naturally acted as Riya's mount again. He didn't have much chance to perform when Riya was around and when they fought before, the few rank 2 magic beasts could still be dealt with by Arnold.

This made Mo's training a bit slower.

Thankfully, Samuel then focused on training them so he attracted a large number of magic beasts, which made Mo really happy.

Now, he had returned to his old profession.

To become Riya's mount.

"Hmm?" Riya arched her eyebrows. "Over there?"

She didn't know what Mo was saying, but he was looking in one direction, so there might be something that attracted him there.

"Go there."

*Roar!* <Yes, Master!>

Mo dashed over while Riya was sensing the mana fluctuation. After they got closer, Riya also noticed that it was the faint fluctuation from the formation.

But…

Why did this formation have such violent mana fluctuation?

Step.

Mo suddenly stopped.

Riya looked at the front and saw a damaged special magic core on the ground and her lips twitched.

"So someone had found this place in the past and triggered a riot…."

She sighed deeply and jumped down from Mo. Looking at the special magic core that has its size broken down, she could guess that a magic beast should have entered this place by mistake… or on purpose and took it. But after taking it, they didn't manage to digest completely before being sucked into the hall and activated the killing formation.

The result?

Naturally, all of them died.

The special magic core was left behind at the entrance of this hall because it has already used the blood of these magic beasts to make a new one.

As for this one…

"You can eat it, Mo," Riya said.

This special magic core is also very attractive to magic beasts because it could help them to increase their strength. And this magic core has been eaten by a magic beasts before, so traces of violent mana remained.

If humans wanted to use it, they would have to purify it first.

And the first rank purification spell that she taught them would not be enough unless they were willing to cast it thousands of times….

She herself was too lazy to use it.

The mana within this special magic core was only comparable to rank 4 now.

It would be better for Mo to eat it.

*roar!* <Thank you, Master!>

Mo was excited and quickly swallowed the special magic core. He didn't have to specifically refine the special magic core because it would be refined naturally inside his body.

What he had to do was to wait.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

Wait and he could definitely become stronger again.

"Wait here and when I come out, you have to be prepared to run as fast as possible…. The direction is where we came from before."

Riya remembered that they passed by a crack not far from here. It was in the direction where they came from and if they could get out of this crack, it would be for the best.

She didn't want to face the attack of thousands of magic beasts.

*roar!* <Yes, Master!>

Riya walked inside and looked at the entire room that had been dyed red and frowned. The special magic core has been taken twice before, was there any other mark here?

With that in thought, Riya slowly circled around the pillar and studied the runes there.

After a while, she managed to find the number in the rune's language, hidden within countless other runes.

It recorded how many times the special magic core has been taken.

"Twice…"

Can she take it again or would it be impossible for her to run away?

The red room made Riya feel a bit uneasy, so she choose to study all the formation first. If she found any anomaly, she would not take this special magic core. But if she didn't find anything remarkable, then she would take it.

After all, this special magic core is at the middle of rank 5, which would be able to help her stabilize her rank.

She doubted that it could help her advance.

But this was already good enough.

As for the risk…

If she wanted to become stronger faster, there would always be risk she had to take. Risk and chance coexist, the question is just simply whether she is willing to take this chance or not.
