Chapter 209 Dragon

"Rebecca there is a portal in front of us," Ren said and he pointed in front of him. He could see a blueish back portal in the distance.

Rebecca followed his hand and also looked at the portal, then a huge smile formed on her face.

"Let's go!" A hurried expression appeared on her face, she wanted to reach the place as soon as possible, for the past many hours they had been travelling on the grassland and fighting many different monsters, and she wanted this monotony to stop.

And on top of that, she has read the Boseman Family Notes and knew that the second stage would be a lot calmer than the first one.

She knew that the second stage of this world would be a maze and a hard one, however, she already knows the correct path of the maze as she remembered it.

The man who wrote Boseman Family notes reached the final stage and then broke his compass to get out.

Rebecca took in a deep breath and started running towards the portal. She didn't wanna face any more monsters and wanted to enter the portal as soon as possible.

Ren and others looked at her and also started running towards the portal, although they were exhausted from walking so much and carrying heavy bags, they still ran.

Soon enough all of them were in front of the portal. When Rebecca looked at the vast grassland a smile formed on her face. "We are so lucky that we didn't meet that monster." She said and jumped inside the portal.

Ren and the others also looked back once and finally entered the second portal, Ren knew what Rebecca was talking about, she had told him about this strange undefeated creature.

'It was a dragon, she told me that it was near impossible to kill it, and even that strange machine she had brought could only help them stall time.' Ren thought as the world wrapped around him and the second place turned visible before his eyes.

He could see a long corridor with big walls covered with ancient carvings.

'A maze.' He thought and looked at Rebecca and when he saw a calm expression on her face, he also calmed down.

He knew what a maze meant in this place, they could have been walking for years before they might find the exit and there could be traps too.

He knew that Rebecca had Boseman Notes, however, he was not sure if she had the path of the maze, however now that he had seen her calm expression he could guess that the Boseman notes contained information about this maze.

And the information was enough to make Rebecca stand calmly as if a huge tension was removed from her mind.

Ren moved towards her and looked ahead. "How much time do you think we will need to exit this second place?" He asked. He was already sure that they would not get lost.

He just wanted to know the time it would take.

"At least ten days, if we meet no one," Rebecca said as she also looked at the long corridor.

"Meet No one? Will there be monsters on this floor too?" Ren asked. He was already fed up with all the monsters he had to fight in the previous world and he didn't wanna do the same here too.

"Not Monsters," Rebecca said.

"So then who?" Ren asked with a frown, he wasn't sure who Rebecca was talking about.

"You know what's special about this place?" Rebecca looked at Ren with an excited expression on her face.

"What?" Ren asked. He didn't know what Rebecca was talking about. He was curious about the special properties of this new world.

"You don't need food or water to survive in this maze, the air here is enough for you to survive," Rebecca said and chuckled.

"Really?" Ren looked at her with his brows raised, he couldn't understand how this was possible, however, he didn't question it too much as he knew that this was a magical place.

"Yes and can you guess what that entails?" A serious expression appeared on her face as she looked at Ren in the eyes.

Ren looked at her and frowned, he didn't know why she suddenly got so serious, however seeing her like this made him not take her question lightly and think about it more clearly.

However, even after thinking about it for a few minutes, he couldn't figure out what Rebecca wanted to tell him and shook his head.

"I didn't know." Ren looked at her with a curious expression, now he wanted to know it too.

"Imagine you didn't have me and entered this place. What do you think would happen?" Rebecca asked another question to help him a bit and just as she did so, Ren's eyes widened as realization struck him suddenly.

"I could be roaming endlessly in this maze till I become aged and die," Ren said and a shudder moved through his body. If he didn't need food and water then he would die when he turned old and before that, he would just stumble across this maze hoping to find an exit.

He wouldn't resort to suicide as hope would be still there, maybe the next corner has the exit. However in the end, if he didn't find it, he would have a miserable death.

"Hahaha... There is another thing that is crazy about this air." Rebecca had a nihilistic smile on her face.

"There is more?" Ren furrowed his brows.

"Yes, the air here makes you immortal. So no matter how old you get you won't die so it's better to commit suicide before your limbs give away and you didn't even have the power to end your life." Rebecca said and looked back at her team. "Stay close, you will not like it if you get lost in this place, or meet some old hags."

Ren listened to her words and a cold feeling moved through his body, this place was a torture world, if you were not lucky and failed to find the exit then you would be stuck in this brutal place till someone came and kills you.

Ren closed his eyes and took in a deep breath to calm himself down, for some reason, Rebecca's words stirred the deepest fear in his body.

'I have to stay with her no matter what, she is my only hope if I want to get out of this place.' He thought and looked at Rebecca.

"Let's go." He said with a nod.

Rebecca also nodded at him and then started moving forward, she already had directions for this place in her mind.

After walking for an hour and taking some turns Ren suddenly asked Rebecca a question.

"How strong was that dragon that you mentioned?"

Rebecca listened to him and took in a deep breath. "That dragon could survive a nuclear attack," she said and sighed.

"Then how would we be supposed to defeat it?"

"Defeat it?" Rebecca chuckled. "Ask how we would have escaped it. It's the strongest creature of level one."

"Even stronger than the little girl?" Ren raised his brows.

"Hmm..." Rebecca nodded.

...

"Hena, can you see that?" Ashely pointed forward as she saw a giant shadow in the Sky moving towards them.

"It looks like a dragon," Hena said with her eyes narrowed and a smile formed on her face. "Wow, a dragon! So cool!" She said again and jumped up in the air excitedly. "I hope it is powerful."

Ashley listened to her and sighed. "I should move out of this place before I am caught in the aftermath like the last time." She murmured and then suddenly flames covered her body and she started to fly in the opposite direction of the dragon.

"Don't drag it for long." She said and moved kilometres away from the place, she was so far away that she couldn't even see them.

"Bang!!!" Suddenly a large shockwave moved through the place, and it pushed Ashely even farther away.

"She is such a monster!" Ashley gulped her saliva. "I will have to stay on her good side." She said and moved back even further.

After about fifteen minutes the loud shockwaves finally stopped and Ashely looked ahead of her. She could see huge flames that reached the sky creating large smoke clouds in the surrounding.

"The Fight went on for longer then I expected." Ashely thought and started to moved forwards. And the more she moved towards the area the more shocked she became.

There were many large craters around the place and fire was erupting out of a lot of them, 'It must be from the dragon's breath.' She thought and took in another deep breath.

'I wonder how much damage Hena has taken, I hope it's not too much.' She started looking around for Hena with a worried expression on her face.

"Hena?!" Her eyes widened when she spotted a shilloute in on of the craters and in the distance she could also see the body of the dragon, it was headless.

Ashley quickly descended and found out that the shilloute was indeed Hena. And when she saw her body, Ashely's eyes widened in terror.

Both of her hands and one of her legs were gone and blood was flowing nonstop.
