Chapter 213: The Ancient Battlefield

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Sitting on the back of the Gale Bird, Mcgee looked at the ground and was curious to find that more than half of the place where the vast sea used to be had retreated.

New islands had appeared... and even... continents.

“What is this?” Mcgee’s face twitched. In the past, he was just a member of the survivors, struggling to survive.

Now that he had a certain level of strength, discovering the world of his subdued beasts was beyond his understanding.

“Is there a problem?” The Snow Spirit Fox noticed Mcgee’s surprise and asked in confusion.

“Of course there is. The formation of the continent takes at least tens of thousands of years. How could it appear in two days?”

“That’s because you look down on the ability of ‘God’ too much.”

What the Snow Spirit Fox said made sense. Indeed, the world of survival for familiars could not be understood in common scientific sense.

“What’s the approximate location of the ancient battlefield you mentioned?” The Gale Bird did not know the exact location, so it asked while gliding in the air.

After accepting the mission, the target location was imprinted in his mind.

“It’s about 200 kilometers to the east.”

Two hundred kilometers was only an hour’s journey for the Gale Bird. But, in reality, it was unimaginable how difficult it was.

After a long journey, he finally saw a faintly discernible golden border on the horizon.

The Gale Bird landed around the border and said, “I can’t continue to fly forward. It seems that there is a powerful force warning me that if I continue to move forward, I will encounter danger.”

“Why don’t I feel the presence of a terrifying enemy?” The Snow Spirit Fox jumped down from the Gale Bird’s back and said with a mocking tone.

“Not an enemy, but a threat.”

The Gale Bird answered thoughtfully.

Mcgee thought about the reason. After accepting the mission, Mcgee chose the Snow Spirit Fox and the Flood Dragon as his companions.

The system undoubtedly created the space ahead. Only the three of them could enter safely.

The Flood Dragon did not ride on the Gale Bird because it was bigger than the Gale Bird, and it could fly itself.

However, its speed was too slow, so Mcgee and the others could only wait for the Flood Dragon to fly over.

It was not until half an hour later that the Flood Dragon appeared in the sky.

It was so tired that it was panting. But, then, it quickly said, “I haven’t flown this far in a long time.”

Speaking of which, the Dragon had always been a model lazy bum. It had been locked in the sea to guard the treasure chest and had not left its territory for hundreds of years.

After becoming Mcgee’s familiar, it spent most of its time hibernating in the castle. It had indeed never experienced a long journey.

Lying on the ground like a snake, it panted and said, “Let’s make a battle plan. I’ll listen.”

“There’s no need for a battle plan,” the Snow Spirit Fox said with a conceited expression. “Just kill whoever comes.”

“Good idea,” the Flood Dragon said, “then I’ll have to trouble the Snow Spirit Fox to deal with the trouble ahead alone.”

“Useless.”

Mcgee saw the two familiars bickering again, especially the Snow Spirit Fox. It seemed to have a natural arrogance, and it did not get along with any of the familiars.

“Stop talking,” Mcgee interrupted. “We don’t know anything about the ancient battlefield at all.”

Mcgee looked up the relevant information about the ancient battlefield through the system, and all the contents were put in question.

It was unknown whether the system deliberately hid the information or whether the ancient battlefield was also a mystery.

After resting for about half an hour, Mcgee saw that the Flood Dragon’s strength had almost recovered and said, “We don’t have much time. Let’s enter the ancient battlefield ruins.”

The Snow Spirit Fox nodded, and the Flood Dragon also got up from the ground.

“Gale Bird, you go back to the Alliance first.”

“How do you plan to come back later? Set a time for me to pick you up?”

“No need.” Mcgee had a calm expression. “If we’re dead, then there’s no need to worry. You can move on with your life. But, if we’re alive, the Flood Dragon can evolve into a True Dragon. I believe it won’t be slower than you.”

Once the system accepted the mission, there was no way to withdraw it. As an elite survivor, Mcgee understood that if he failed, the end would be death.

However, he did not regret his choice.

The purpose of the Adventurers’ Guild was to exchange challenges for strength. But, unfortunately, the Blood Moon attack had already made Mcgee realize how insignificant his power was.

The next attack would only be more difficult, so...

Mcgee had no choice but to raise the strength of his main battle familiar to a certain level.

As the guardian of the treasure chest, Mcgee had seen the Flood Dragon’s strength before. However, just that tornado alone was enough to give Mcgee a headache.

Perhaps the Flood Dragon was unsuitable for being an adventure familiar due to its large size and lazy personality.

However, it was a unique existence that could be used to protect its home.

The bones of an Ancient Dragon were the materials for a Dragon-type familiar to level up. How could Mcgee let go of such an opportunity?

As for failure, Mcgee had not thought of that outcome.

If he did not challenge it, he would just be waiting for death sooner or later.

“I’ll go first.” The Snow Spirit Fox stepped into the golden barrier first.

Unknowingly, it had already regarded Mcgee as its faithful companion.

“No problem,” said the Snow Spirit Fox after stepping into the barrier. “It’s just that... this place looks very desolate.”

The Flood Dragon was the second familiar to step into the ancient battlefield ruins.

Mcgee followed behind them and entered. The Gale Bird also tried to reach into the barrier with one hand, but there seemed to be an invisible wall of air in front of it.

“As expected...” Mcgee looked at the Gale Bird outside the wall. It was not that it was dangerous to enter the barrier, but that it could not enter at all.

This wall of light seemed to be a way of filtering the rules.

After stepping into the ancient battlefield, the smell of spring mud flowed into Mcgee’s nostrils. It smelled like the fragrance of spring, and there was also the smell of rotting corpses.

Walking along the dirt road, one could see metal materials and bones scattered all over the ground. It was already impossible to recognize which familiars’ bones were those.

However, judging from the scale, there were at least 50,000 familiars fighting here. They did not know why they were fighting, or what the outcome would be.

Even the Snow Spirit Fox, who was cold by nature, could not help but feel a sense of loneliness when she saw this scene.

“Their war happened at least 10,000 years ago.” The Snow Spirit Fox could be said to be a living dictionary in the world of familiars. Things that even it had never heard of could naturally be traced back to ancient times.

“I feel a familiar aura.” The Flood Dragon suddenly looked warily at a stone building not far away.

“An altar?”

This was the first time Mcgee had seen an altar in real life, and it was such a huge altar.

“What’s this thing used for?”

“Let’s put it this way. Me, the Flood Dragon, and the Gale Bird were not familiars from this world, or rather, they were not familiars that lived in this area.

“But we were pulled together by the altar using a mysterious power from different dimensions.”

Mcgee finally understood. Could it be that they were the same as the survivors, the chosen ones from different worlds?
