The two who were suddenly released were slightly bewildered, unable to understand why they had been freed so abruptly.

Kavala scratched her arm and then picked at her neck.

Looking at the surroundings, she decided to stay put obediently, and the Waku beside her also understood the current situation.

Simon, who stood by them, seemed ready to crush them easily.

The aura emanating from him made the two feel as though they were facing some terrifying creature.

How can a person reach such a level?

"Indeed, they're allergic," Simon said as he approached them, observing their actions and skin.

"Allergic?" Alka glanced over.

Both had gray-white skin with red spots, especially on the arms and neck.

The reddened spots on the skin appeared raised, akin to a bite from a venomous mosquito.

Kavala was still unaware and continued scratching.

With each scratch, more red marks were left behind.

"You mean they're actually allergic to magic power?" Chadite said in surprise.

She hadn't anticipated such a situation, and wondered how one could survive outside like this.

The resonance with magic power must be so uncomfortable; could it be that these two had no magic power within them?

Kavala and Waku seemed to realize their symptoms.

Seeing the red spots on themselves: "High Magic Syndrome?"

"We didn't expect to have this condition?" Kavala said, a hint of amusement in her voice.

She seemed intrigued by her allergy to magic power.

"Yeah, I didn't expect it either." Waku nodded, finding the red spots on his skin fascinating.

"Take us to your gathering place," Alka said directly to them.

Upon hearing this, they looked at him warily.

Clearly, they didn't wish to comply.

"You're not living well, are you? Resources are extremely scarce, magic power is scarce. You must be at a difficult point now, right?

Perhaps in several decades or centuries, your race may perish here, correct?"

As Alka spoke, their brows furrowed deeper.

When did they get exposed? Then they thought of the abilities Alka and his companions had shown when they met.

It's possible these people had been observing them for a long time.

"Alright, don't ask me how I know. These are my guesses, but they should be true, right?"

As Alka entered this space, he gradually began to understand it through the treasure.

He started to grasp it, and naturally felt that the space had become somewhat gray and desolate due to long-term lack of magic power.

A simple treasure investigation revealed that most of the land in this space had completely become wasteland, exactly like the wasteland beneath their feet.

Only very small parts still had some vitality, and perhaps these two and the surviving Vastva thrived on this lingering life.

It cannot be denied, it's somewhat admirable. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"Trapped here for over 30,000 years, I really wonder how you managed to endure," Alka thought, unable to help but speak to them.

Then he looked at them still cautiously entangled.

Alka said directly, "What exactly are you hesitating about? Even if you don't take me, this place is only so big, and it won't take too much extra time, right?"

"Moreover, as you walked here, you didn't conceal your tracks. You never considered that there could be other people here," Alka pointed behind them.

There was a long trail of footprints left by mechanical walking. The thick dust on the ground made their tracks very conspicuous. Just following the footprints was no different from them leading the way.

Then Alka continued, "I'm not asking you to sneak me into your gathering place, but to enter openly."

They nodded, obviously convinced by Alka's words, because the reality was indeed as he said.

Moreover, they felt the powerful magic power emanating from Alka's body. Even their recently displayed incomprehensible ability was high magic.

They had just briefly touched it, and it had produced an allergic reaction due to the high concentration of magic power.

To be able to freely wield magic power like this, akin to stories from historical myths.

Perhaps he might even save them.

"In exchange, we need to retrieve our machinery," Kavala said to Alka.

Alka turned to Simon.

Simon nodded, "There's no threat."

Hearing this, Alka nodded, "Alright, but hope you don't do anything foolish."

As he spoke, he slightly waved his hand, and suddenly the two machines disappeared from their original position and reappeared in front of them.

This sudden action made them widen their eyes.

"How... how is this possible?" Waku was completely amazed.

Kavala beside him had already widened her eyes, stunned.

This also made them realize the power Alka and his companions possessed, clearly not something they could resist.
