System vs Rebirth

Chapter 607 Begin

Noel was curious and followed the instruction.

"Wha—!" Noel was shocked in an instant as he somehow managed to look out the window along with the demon that stood inside the building.

He almost dropped the item due to the shock. Luckily, Clara had expected something like this and immediately helped Noel hold the telescope. "How is it?"

"I could somehow see the window of that building, including the demon standing inside the building. It's not aware of our location yet." Noel gasped while looking at this magical item called 'Telescope.'

"Haha, surprising, isn't it? When I tried it for the first time, I had a similar reaction."

"Yeah. To think such a magical item exists." Noel shook his head helplessly. He didn't know how to react once he got his hand on it.

"This is the biggest reason why we're expanding our border. We want to continue exploring mysterious facilities like this."

"We can find more and more mysterious items and our people will try to replicate it. We don't know much about the previous civilization, but one thing is clear. The previous civilization was an extremely advanced civilization."

"They can live harmoniously without the Spiritual Energy. We don't know how they do it, but it seems to be related to Lightning Element."

"Our civilization has been chasing after the previous civilization, trying to apply our unique civilization, specifically the Spiritual Energy, into the technology."

"This is one of the examples. What do you think?" Clara smiled.

Noel made a genuine smile. "It's truly fascinating. I have always thought this world is extremely big. However, the four kingdoms can only occupy a portion of it due to the danger that lies beyond the border. That's why I'm wondering how good it is to explore the entire world…

"There might be a new mysterious item that we can't explain. There might be new terrain that we can't describe. There might even be survivors from the previous civilization. Though, I know one thing that won't change. You can't venture out there without supreme strength. That's why it's a shame." Noel shook his head helplessly, feeling disappointed.

Clara patted his shoulder. "The previous civilization was surely amazing. Their building is sturdier than ours due to a special material. Even when we try to analyze it, we can't recreate it. There are windows and other things that we recreate from the previous civilization. So, I'm suggesting that you should do whatever you want.

"I know for sure your talent is something rarely seen in this world. It might take some time, but I have no doubt that you will reach a point where you can do that. I can't do it, but I can say this for sure… When we go out of the border, there will be an endless adventure."

"Indeed." Noel nodded. "Though, I have to survive from this expedition first. Is there anything I can use to check the building?"

"We don't have much, but Septa's squad should have prepared a few spots to observe the building. We can go check other spots to see the building from all directions."

"Fair enough." Noel nodded.

After a simple talk, Noel continued to observe the building, trying to find anything that could be used to their advantage.

They even tried a few other spots that Septa's squad had created for them. Unfortunately, it was hard to find any useful information through the window alone.

They could see some cracks, but it seemed the demons didn't destroy the building. There was no part that collapsed, so they truly lacked information.

Noel wanted to know the purpose of this place.

From what he could see from the window, those windows were coming from many rooms. It might look like a small room where people usually used to live, but Noel couldn't find anything related to people's living space.

Only the bed was visible, but there were a few weird things that were spotted inside, which didn't seem to be useful for a living space.

So, Noel thought the building was a place that could host a lot of people. But the people that went to this building weren't there for the sake of living. Instead, they seemed to be planning to rest there for a while and return home.

Unfortunately, that was the only thing they could find other than the weird machines inside the room. In the end, they had to enter to confirm the purpose of the building.

…

The night before the departure.

All captains and elders gathered again in one tent to discuss their plans. Their roles were pretty clear since there was a reason why they were invited to this place.

Shale immediately declared, "I have brought Five Squads of Demon Extermination Squad. The three squads shall be led by my vice captain to kill the demons around the vicinity. The other two squads will follow me inside."

Septa nodded and said, "I have four squads with me. Two squads shall go around to maintain the information for the people outside, including the ones inside this fort. The other two squads will follow me inside to connect all the people inside the building as well as find any trace of demons. If possible, we have to find the hidden nest where the demons reside."

The Plant Lord raised his hand. "I have investigated the plants nearby. Nature has taken the building back from humans. So, there might be a lot of plants that make their way inside. They might contain poison or something, so I'll be there to check the plants. My disciple will stay here, so we can bring anyone poisoned here to be treated."

The Stone Lord smiled. "As for me, I'm planning to enter. I'm curious about the structure, so I'm planning to check every material they use inside. Don't worry, the terrain is sturdy enough, so it should be easier to find a hiding place…"

Clara explained her role last. "In that case, only the Zero Squad will enter here while the rest remain here to support everyone in case of emergency. The Zero Squad will try to identify the building as well as its purpose. We'll do our best to create a map of the building as soon as possible."

Everyone looked at each other with a smile. They seemed to have reached an agreement.

And finally, this expedition could officially start.

The next day.

All related parties had stood in front of the fort, ready to explore the mysterious building. All of them had grim expressions on their faces, fully knowing the danger that was looming inside.

"Let's begin our exploration."
