Chapter 328 Part One: Ancient Battlefield(#946)
(From MC's perspective)
My status looked alright. Fortunately, there was no assessment required to gauge my exact strength. So people would think I'm getting started in level-3 rank.
After getting ready, I immediately left the dorm and walked toward the Transport area. Where we can use any type of transport vehicle for travel.
I reached the transport facility of the academy, a few minutes later. Which is located near the Academy's entrance.
Soon, I walked into the area which is an open space. I see many flying artifacts and flying cars standing in line. All of them were an invention by mechanical wizards.
Then my gaze turned towards the opposite side. Where I see many beast carriages. No doubt these tamed flying beasts were used for transport purposes.
A quick glint flashed in my eyes. There were many types of the beast. But these beasts were different species than monsters. Most of the beasts were lower in strength and couldn't evolve.
But monsters were different. As long as the monsters have a bloodline, they can evolve from 1st-order monsters to 2nd-order monsters and high above.
After glancing at them one more time, I decided not to waste any more time. I hurried towards one of the beast carriages.
The flying beast looks different. It has a very long elongated neck and a small beak. Feeling my glance, the bird-type flying beast looked at me.
But due to my higher rank, the beast timidly moved its head away. Seeing that, I chuckled and moved closer to the carriage. The beast has brown-scaly skin with four shaped claws.
When I walked up to the door. An old man appeared right beside me all of a sudden.
Seeing that my eyes gleamed with a twinkle.
"Level 4," I mumbled under my breath. The surprise glint appeared in my eyes for a moment before it disappeared.
"Hello! Sir, where do you want to go?" The old man asked.
I observed the old man for a moment. He is dressed in an old-fashioned tuxedo. He looked more like a family steward than a driver.
But I don't want to comment on him. Then slightly nodding my head, I replied, "I want to go to the ancient battlefield."
The old man's eyes filled with surprise. There are many ancient sites. But he didn't quite understand which one that young mage is referring to.
At the same time, I saw through his thoughts. I'm slightly embarrassed before saying," Ahem, old man. It's site number #946."
The old man nodded in understanding. But he was not surprised. That site is an abandoned battlefield. Apart from collecting resources, the ancient battlefield site doesn't have any other use.
"Sir, can we leave now?" After some seconds, the old man asked.
I nodded my head before opening the door to enter inside.
Inside, there were only two cushion seats.
Enough for two people to sit comfortably. I sat in a leisurely manner close to the glass window.
Meanwhile,
After closing the door, the old man started to drive.
The flying beast rose from the ground and started to move in mid-air.
Swish!
When the beast flew out of the academy's space. The speed of the monster drastically increased. The monster crossed a mile within a few minutes.
Inside the cabin, I heard the air breaking sound very clearly.
A surprise glinted in my eyes. The beast's capability is higher than I thought. No wonder, it's used for driving a flying carriage.
With this speed, I believe we will reach the destination within a few hours. Then shaking my head, I decided to take some rest. I shut my eyes and wait for the flying carriages to reach the destination.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
The flying carriage crossed several miles to reach the border area of the dragon city. Only after I opened my eyes to look down through the window.
I see the contrasting changes in the environment and landscapes. There is no greener area or mountains. The border looks desolate and barren.
"Sir, we are still a few miles away from the ancient battlefield," At this time, the old man's voice reached my ears.
Hearing that, I furrowed my eyebrows even deeper.
I thought we had reached the spot. But to think that the real destination is miles ahead. My expression couldn't help but turn solemn.
This time the experience is going to be different from the wilderness. I smell the aura of desolation from here.
Swish! Swish!
Suddenly I hear the sound of similar carriages flying in the air towards the destination. Hearing that, I looked toward the direction where the sound came from.
From a distance, two or more carriages were going in the same direction as me. Seeing that, a look of understanding dawned upon me. "It seems I'm not alone," I muttered to myself.
But the words heard the old man replied, "Sir, you have to stay careful. Those wizards from Royal Halls were quite treacherous."
Hearing that, I looked again at those carriages. I also noticed one thing. Their carriages were layered with golden patterns. Which is the symbol of Royal Force Hall.
Then I retracted my gaze and assured the old man that I would be fine.
Several minutes later,
The flying carriage slowed down its speed at one spot. When the flying beast landed on the ground, I opened the door to walk out.
After stepping down, I looked around the environment around me. The ground looked red like it has been stained with blood ever since the end of the old-era battles.
Even the smell of desolate attacked my nostril. I have to say this place is daunting.
Suddenly, the flying beast let out our disgruntled noise. Like it wants to get away from this place as soon as possible.
Seeing that, the old man decided to leave. Before leaving he gave me his contact number. So that I can contact him after the mission is done.
Swish!
After letting out, joyful noise. The flying beast pulled the carriage away from this place.
Seeing the disappearing back of the carriage. I finally decided to concentrate on the mission. I accessed the digital map the next second.
My eyes swept past the marked areas. Right now, I'm standing on the outskirts of the ancient battlefield. So I picked the nearest marked areas to start my search.
Towards my east, there are abandoned ruins of old-era buildings. It's one of the places where the aftermath of battle swept away nearby buildings.
The next second, I disappeared from the spot and rushed toward the destination. On the way, I found a lot of debris. But I sense no danger. So I quickened my pace.
Swish!
After crossing a few distances, I'm slowly moving toward the deeper area. But suddenly, I found a malicious gaze fell on me.
"Gravity Field," I uttered.
The next second, a tremendous gravitational force appeared. The area surrounding me comes under immense gravity pressure.
Pfff
A 100 ft long centipede monster suffered under gravitational force. Finally, when I turned around. I see the complete body of a centipede monster.
Click!
Under the huge gravitational force, the monster was torn into pieces. And its body parts were splattered around the ground.
A quick glint flashes in my eyes. Because I missed the crystal gem again. I don't know whether the monster hiding here is any different from other places.
So I decided to collect crystal gems if I came across some other monsters.
Time passed,
After half an hour, the area came into my view. Seeing that there are ruins ahead, I hurried my pace toward the destination.
Swish!
Before I could realize it, something brushed past my face. It feels like some kind of attack. The next second, I leaped backward and landed on the ground.
Feeling pain in my face. "Injury,' My eyes gleamed with a twinkle.
I decided to check the system.
"System, show my status panel," I said to the system.

The status panel appeared in front of my eyes.
My gaze immediately fell on vitality points. "-10," I uttered in disbelief. I suffered an injury after a long time.
