Everyone looked at Ivan, puzzled by his words. How did he plan to get everyone out of here?

But immediately after, their questions reviewed the answer as Ivan’s body suddenly exploded with terrifying Nexus energy.

The ground under his feet exploded as a strong shockwave spread in all directions around him.

The shockwave blew against everyone’s faces and caused them to close their eyes, and their hairs fluttered widely.

After the shockwave subsided, they all looked at Ivan in shock, they were moved.

“How, when?!” Glen walked toward Ivan and began to walk around him with wide eyes.

Ralph was also observing Ivan, everyone felt like their eyes were playing tricks on them.

The last time they saw Ivan was before the blood labyrinth separated them, and he was only at the Partial Lord rank at that time; how did he suddenly become a True Lord?!

Ivan only smiled slightly and didn’t respond, the Nexus energy around him took form and shaped into four large arms that grabbed Karin, Glen, Ralph, and Clint.

After grabbing them, Ivan lowered himself slightly as he gathered strength. After a few seconds, he suddenly leaped into the air.

BOOM!

The ground exploded and a huge crater that was over ten meters wide and three meters deep appeared in the ground after Ivan shot into the air. Ivan shot through the air while carrying the four of them, he easily reached hundreds of meters in the air and came to the level of the tunnel that was on the wall.

BAM!

Ivan’s feet landed on the ground of the tunnel with a loud sound while still holding the four with his arms made from Nexus.

“WOW! That was crazy, the distance you just jumped was more than the walls of the labyrinth; the True Lord rank sure is something else.” Glen exclaimed as he stared at Ivan with eyes filled with reverence and excitement.

Ivan smiled back without saying anything.

Ralph glanced at him from the side and didn’t comment, the five continued their journey back.

Meanwhile, back at the base.

Elliot could be seen standing in front of a small table in an empty office building with sturdy black materials, and on the other side of the table was a middle-aged woman with an extremely cold expression on her face as she stared at Elliot with eyes filled with killing intent.

It was the vice tower master!

“You were sent to control the land carrier for them, but you’re telling me that you left them behind because the time limit you agreed upon had elapsed?” The vice tower master asked softly, her voice was low but carried strong killing intent that made Elliot’s body shiver.

He didn’t dare to say anything or even raise his head to look at the woman in front of him; his entire body was shaking, and he was sweating seriously.

BAM!

The vice tower master suddenly slammed her palm on the table and shattered the table that was made of the same material as the walls of the base.

Elliot was startled and jumped back in fear, he immediately went on his knees.

“I’m terribly sorry, I didn’t know what came over me!” Elliot cried out while sobbing in his heart.

The vice tower master gazed down at him with extremely cold eyes.

“You didn’t know what came over you? You better pray to your stars that nothing happens to them. Get out this instant and go back there, the tower master will have your head if you come back without them!” She hissed.

Elliot stood up with trembling legs and immediately ran out of the office, he hurried toward where he parked the land carrier and immediately left the base. He headed toward Region 17 while sobbing. He felt great injustice, but there was nothing he could do about it; he could only pray that Ivan and the others were not dead yet.

Meanwhile, Ivan and his cohort were climbing the tunnel of Region 17; they were getting closer and closer to the exit.

They had passed many familiar places and reached one of the sections where they had placed a marker.

While the distance that they had to cross was very far, it was still faster than when they were clearing the place. They did not have to kill any monster this time and directly ran past the various halls and nests of monsters, they would rest occasionally but only for a brief moment.

In a blink of an eye, five days passed.

The group finally reached the last section where they had dropped the first marker.

“Just a little more and we’ll be out of here,” Ivan mumbled to the group.

“I can’t wait to get out of here, the air is so oppressive and uncomfortable,” Glen said with an exhausted sigh.

“I miss the fresh air of earth,” Karin murmured with a lifeless tone. Stay connected via empire

” Let’s rest here for a bit; we don’t know if we’ll encounter anything ahead of us,” Ralph suggested, and Ivan agreed.

Everyone immediately found a place to sit and recuperate.

While everyone was resting, Ralph quietly moved toward Ivan’s position. The latter turned to look at him with a raised eyebrow.

” Hey,” Ralph said softly after reaching Ivan.

” Hey,” Ivan mumbled back.

Ralph immediately went straight to the point.

” I don’t know if you noticed but you’ve become…warmer during the past few days. No, it should be since we woke up in the labyrinth. You seem different.”Ralph said softly while looking Ivan in the eyes.

Ivan showed a stunned expression for a few seconds as he exchanged eye contact with Ralph for a few seconds. He suddenly let out a silent chuckle after a few seconds, and he broke off the eye contact.

” As expected of you, I should have expected you to notice immediately,” Ivan said in between his chuckles.

Ralph didn’t find it funny and kept looking at Ivan with a serious face, Ivan sighed and patted the boy’s shoulder.

” You shouldn’t be bothered. Let’s just say something inside me changed, but I’m good; thanks for worrying about me.” He said with a sincere smile on his face.

Ralph looked at him for a few seconds before sighing and moving his gaze away.

“If you say so, just remember you can always tell us anything. I and Glen, we are your friends and will always support you.” Ralph said before walking back to sit elsewhere.

Ivan had a smile on his face as he watched Ralph walk away; he called out his profile after.

….

NAME: Ivan Von Charles

Talent Group: Primal Talent type: Wisher Talent: Wish card

Talent lv: SS AP: 50.23% Rank: TRUE LORD.

…

“It’s really been a while, huh?” Ivan mumbled to himself as he recalled when he used to be just a nobody back in the outskirts.

In less than two years, so many things had changed and he was now a powerhouse in the world of ordinary humans and even Nexulytes.

Time passed quickly, and two more days passed swiftly; the group finally arrived at the entrance of the mountain range that was the entrance of Region 17; this was where they had battled the rock snakes.

Just like Ralph had guessed, some monsters had started residing in the cave after the rock snake monsters were cleared out by the group.

The group found a pack of barbarian bulls staying in the cave. The barbarian bulls were bull monsters with a height of seven to thirteen meters and had buffed shapes. They had extremely black bodies, and their skins were as tough as wood. They used blunt weapons as a means of attacking other creatures.

There were over fifty of them residing inside the cave where the rock snake monsters used to stay.

“The hell? Where did these things come from?!” Glen exclaimed when he saw the barbarian bulls.

“Shut up you idiot! You’ll alert them!” Karin covered Glen’s mouth and hissed at him.

Ralph facepalmed from the side. This girl’s voice was even louder than Glen’s, yet she dared to scold him.

As expected, some of the barbarian bulls immediately looked in their direction when they heard Karin’s voice. They immediately raised their voices and made low, growling sounds; it sounded more like they were calling for help.

A few seconds later, heavy footsteps could be heard as more barbarian bulls rushed over. In the blink of an eye, there were more than seventy barbarian bulls gathered in the cave, and each of them was carrying huge tree branches in their hands.

“Damnit, now see what you caused.” Karin glared at Glen as if it was his fault.

Ralph stared at the two and shook his head helplessly, he didn’t have the energy to lecture them at all.

“Prepare to fight,” Ralph said and immediately let out Nexus energy from his body but a palm suddenly landed on his shoulder.

He looked and saw Ivan looking back at him.

“Let me,” Ivan said as he stepped forward. A card appeared in his hand before changing into a long sword.
