chapter-289
"Stay back. I am going to move all this sand," I yelled out as I stood a hundred feet or so away from the entrance of the city blocks. If I could gain two of these free of charge, then I was not going to let it go. I also wanted to take all the technology here as well. I closed my eyes and stretched out my hands before opening them again. The ground shook as the sand in front of us, over a thousand feet in all directions, was lifted into the sky. It was then wrapped in a barrier and moved to the side. I had also created a barrier around the city blocks to keep the surrounding sand from falling into it again.
"Faith, are you sure you should have done that?" Adel asked. I know what she was worried about. "It's fine. The last message told me to meet him at the bottom of the dungeon. And he is not dumb enough to try to leave a message here of all places. To him, this was probably just a desert area that might have had some monsters in it. Even if he detected the city, he would not be able to move all this sand at once."
"I see… You know your father well." Adel said with a smile.
"Of course! He is a man worthy of being looked up to. And he is my father, after all." I couldn't help but smile, thinking back to all the father daughter moments we had while I was growing up. He is a silly man and a great father.
The only thing different about this place was that the X7 of this floor was not functioning when I found him. But I still stored this X7 away in case he ever needed spare parts. We cleaned out all the buildings, and I also got my hands on a second mana capacitor. Surprisingly it was still very much functional.We checked around quite a bit but found nothing out of the ordinary. I figured maybe, X7 could tap into his other world counterpart to shed some insight on what happened to this world. In the end, we found the portal to the left of the city in the middle of the desert. When we passed through the barrier, we came out to what seemed to be a thriving kingdom.
"Oh? Residents?" I looked around from the mountain top we were on and found that the place was very much alive. From my point of view, there were many towns and villages and even a city off in the distance.
"What should we do here?" Iena asked. I was also unsure as this floor was unlike the other dead floors.
"I am not sure. We can only try to find the barrier wall. However, this place looks more like a medieval Earth era than a place with magic. Speaking of which, everyone, check your ability to move your mana." I had a strange feeling that something was different about this floor of the dungeon.
"I can, but it's very minimal." Grace was not the only one, everyone else was too. And as for me…. "I am still the same… I wonder if it has to do with my system…"
"Isn't that a little unfair!" Sei whined as she created a dinky fireball.
"My magic is fine as well…." Iena said as she created a large fireball with ease."Is it because you are connected to me? Hmmm…." I decided to try tethering everyone to my mana pool, and surprisingly this did work quite well… "I see... So this is due to how much mana a person has. Since Iena feeds off my mana, she would naturally have her normal powers, but you all do not, which restricts your power. So being connected to my mana fixes this issue. It's like finding an exploit in the dungeon system. Alright, we will be moving as one anyway, so this works out well."
We climbed down the mountain and found a dirt road that looked to be well traveled. I had no idea if we were heading east, west, north, or south, but we were definitely turned right onto the road. We were not in too much of a hurry since this place was much different than the other floors.
When we arrived at the first town, we noticed the tall log style wall surrounding it. Outside were guards with spears and metal armor standing there as they inspected the carts and the people entering. And this was when the first problem arose.
"Ahh, demon!" Someone yelled out in my current worlds language while looking straight at me. I frowned as I looked at the person who screamed but they seemed to be truly terrified. Not more than a few seconds later, the entire line of people began to react and scream out in horror. Adel and Sophie came over and held my hands. They knew the things I had been through since young, so I guess they were worried about me.
"Stand down, demon!" One of the guards yelled out, causing me to frown once more.
"Who are you calling a demon!?" Adel yelled out. "Can you not see all the humans in our group too!? If she was a demon, would we be next to her!?"
"Humph! For all I know, you are all demons! You will all come with us!" The guard yelled. I sighed and pulled Adel back.
"Since we are unwelcomed, we will leave," I said with a smile and bowed my head.
"Faith! Why are you…." I stopped Adel once more and shook my head.
"They might not be used to demi humans or why might not exist in this world. So they are only scared of what they do not understand." I replied. I did not want to cause a scene when we did not need to. If they let us leave on our own, that would be the best outcome. The worst case outcome is that we would be put in jail, which was also fine. Either way, it was not like they could keep us here if we truly wished to leave.
