Chapter 373: Destruction of the Calamity Mountain Range
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee TranslationsThe Calamity Mountain Range was vast. Even though the Nicholas family had sent many training teams here to explore, they had only set foot in a small area. Since ancient times, countless Magi had come to explore. This small area, which could not be quantified, could barely make up the map of the periphery of the Calamity Mountain Range. As for the middle and deeper areas, there were hardly any information.
In fact, the map of the Calamity Mountain Range, which everyone could buy, had been passed down through the years. The records which had been originally accurate might not be accurate now. Not to mention the changes caused by the various fights and the passage of time, just the magical beasts and distribution here, as well as the various natural treasures. It would naturally have evolved. There were countless natural treasures in the Calamity Mountain Range, and the Spirit Spring’s Water Moon Stone in the forbidden ground of the Nicholas family clan had come from here. Recently, the Nicholas family had discovered traces of a Magic Stone Mine here. If they could really occupy this Magic Stone Mine, the benefits would be endless!
At this moment, in a deep region of the Calamity Mountain Range, an invisible hurricane had swept across an area of more than 50 kilometers. This wind could not be heard, seen, or touched. It could be said to be invisible and formless. Even the most tender thin grass would not be destroyed. However, the natural energy between the heavens and earth kept stirring and dissipating for some reason! This inexplicable wind, which could devour the energy of divine Qi, was the dangerous phenomenon that came with the Calamity Mountain Range, the Calamity Hurricane!
No one knew where the Calamity Hurricane had come from or why it had come. They only knew that this hurricane had come and gone without a trace in the Calamity Mountain Range, and the probability of it happening was random. The deeper the area, the more frequent, the more extensive, and the stronger it became. The Calamity Hurricane could sweep away the energy of divine Qi, preventing Magi from absorbing the magical power of the world. Even the circulation of magical power in one’s body would be constained, and the magical power unleashed would be greatly reduced!
In the area where the Calamity Hurricane had swept over, a group of Magi was fleeing in panic. If it had not been for the fact that their levels were high enough, they probably would not have been able to escape. After flying out of the Calamity Hurricane, the dozen or so people stopped not far from the hurricane area and looked nervously at the hurricane area.
“Another hurricane. The frequency of hurricanes in the depths of the mountain range is too high!”
“Leonard and the others have not escaped…”
“Let’s wait a little longer. He should be fine.”
“We’ve been searching for so long, why is there no sign of it? Is there really a Magic Stone Mine?”
“It’s hard to say. We’ve only found scattered magic ore points…”
“…”
Everyone was discussing spiritedly. This group of people were all Great Archmagi of the Nicholas family clan! Here, there were Lotte, Aaron, and other clansmen of the Nicholas family, as well as the retainers of the Nicholas family clan, such as Kadun and Clane. Their levels were all above level-5 of the Great Archmage realm.
“Harris and Leonard are back!”
“Where’s Young Master Dick?”
“Perhaps they have already explored 5,000 kilometers underground…”
As they were discussing, two figures flew out from the hurricane area one after another. They were Harris and Leonard. This group of people had scattered underground to search for the Magic Stone Mine. They had already explored an area of hundreds of kilometers, and each area, they had basically explored to a depth of 5,000 kilometers. Such a huge amount of work could be said to be extremely burdensome. Even with the participation of the Divine Mage Dick, it was still very difficult. As they chatted, the few Great Archmagi of the highest level looked west, their eyes wary.
“Someone is flying here!”
“It’s the Nicholas family’s flying ferry!”
Soon, everyone present sensed the familiar aura and relaxed a little. They were somewhat happy. The flying ferry soon arrived beside everyone. The dozen or so Great Archmagi who had stopped below flew to the deck of the flying ferry one after another. The two sides gathered. Zoro was the first to come on the ferry to assist, and beside him were Lily and Anthony.
After some discussion, the family clan agreed to send Anthony to the scene to try to locate the Magic Stone Mine with the Small Prediction Technique. The original plan had been for Ron to lead the team here, but he had an urgent task at the last minute to make the level-6 pill, so this time, Zoro was in charge of the team. After they had met up, Leonard roughly explained the latest situation on the search for the Magic Stone Mine. They had come here today to explore, but they had not expected to encounter another Calamity Hurricane. Helpless, they had no choice but to withdraw temporarily. Currently, there were still a few people in the team in the hurricane area, including Dick.
The Calamity Hurricane was invisible and formless. Its ability to destroy the energy of divine Qi was not limited to the ground. It was also present deep underground! It was even was even more dangerous underground than on the ground. After all, one had to use magical power underground to open a path, which meant that magical power would be continuously consumed.
After hearing Leonard’s general explanation, Anthony lowered his head and thought. Zoro suddenly turned around and looked somewhere. “Apart from us, are there any other teams searching underground?”
Leonard was slightly stunned and replied, “I didn’t find anyone.”
The others were a little surprised and puzzled.
“There are a few unfamiliar auras rushing out from the ground there…” As he spoke, Zoro suddenly raised his eyebrows in surprise. “There’s actually a Divine Mage!”
… .
At the same time, in a place very far away from Zoro and the others, a few figures had fled in panic from the hurricane area. In addition to their sorry state, one of them was seriously injured and had emerged drenched in blood.
After charging out of the dangerous area, the few of them heaved a sigh of relief. The silver-haired old man in the lead seemed to have sensed something and suddenly looked into the distance, his eyes filled with surprise. The person beside him shouted in confusion, “Master?”
The silver-haired old man frowned. “Another Divine Mage has come. He should be from the Nicholas family.”
Upon hearing this, the few people beside him had serious expressions. One of them hesitated. “Then we’ll wait…”
The old man waved his hand. “It’s fine. Let’s leave this place first!”
Then, the silver-haired old man flew away with the few of them out of the detection range of Zoro’s soul power.
… .
On the deck of the ferry, everyone looked in the direction of Zoro’s gaze, bewildered.
Zoro continued, “These few people have already fled from this area. They don’t seem to have any intention of coming into contact with us.”
Everyone was surprised, and Lotte’s expression was grave. “I wonder if they have come here to search for ordinary treasures or to search for the Magic Stone Mine?”
Everyone discussed spiritedly, all a little nervous.
“Could it be that they also know about the Magic Stone Mine?”
“We’ve been searching for so long, it’s normal for someone to sense us.”
“I wonder how long it will take to find it… If others find it first, then it is difficult to guarantee the ownership of the stone mine.”
As they discussed, everyone who had rushed over to support looked at Anthony.
At this moment, Anthony was looking around thoughtfully. “Grandfather, let me check it out again.”
Zoro nodded. “Alright.”
… .
After a long while, the hurricane not far from them slowly dissipated. Before the hurricane dissipated, Dick and the others returned to the ferry from underground.
Everyone summarized all the information they had obtained so far. Dick had searched more than 5,000 kilometers underground, but he had not found the Magic Stone Mine. The others had gradually found many scattered magic ore points. It could be seen that there was indeed a Magic Stone Mine hidden in this vast area. However, after searching around, they still could not find the exact location.
After Anthony had arrived, everyone stopped exploring underground for the time being. Instead, they followed Anthony’s instructions and scattered around to gather all kinds of information.
Three days passed in a flash, and it was night time. In the sky above the flying ferry, Anthony flew high into the sky and looked down. There seemed to be a faint flash of starlight in his lowered eyes, and even the void beside him seemed to be moving inexplicably. The dark blue night sky, which was decorated with stars, was suddenly pierced by a meteor. Anthony suddenly looked up into a certain direction, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
… .
An hour later, the ferry stopped in the air in a new area.
Lily said, “Anthony, are you sure this is the place?”
Anthony nodded in agreement. Zoro and Dick looked at each other and instructed, “Alright, let’s search here!”
Everyone went down to act according to the plan. They scattered around and rushed underground. On the original spot, only Anthony, Lily, and a few retainers, including Harris, stayed on the deck.
Seeing everyone went underground to search, Anthony’s heart skipped a beat and he felt uneasy.
