Chapter 181: The Key to the Dark World!

[The item contained in this treasure chest is very powerful. I suggest that you do not open it here. You should return to your city and open it.]

Pierce was stunned when he saw the message. It hinted that if he opened it here, he would encounter considerable danger!

He looked down at the gorgeous box in his hand and thought for a moment, before holding back his desire to open it immediately.

He was not like the Demigod puppet that could withstand the dragon’s attack just by standing aside. Furthermore, he had easily killed it!

Although he wanted to obtain the same ability as him, it was obvious that he was still not strong enough.

Since the notification from the hint system had reminded him, it was best for him to obey it. The hint system should have reminded him after calculating the strength around him.

This meant that he would be in great danger even under the protection of Vivier, Frost, and the Undead Archangel!

He was getting more and more interested in the thing in the treasure chest.

What item was it that could create such difficulty?

Pierce’s goal for this trip was over.

He was going to quickly return to his city and open the gorgeous box to satisfy his curiosity as soon as possible.

The group began their trip back home. This time, they did not take their time traveling back.

After all, they had something to do now. The scenery could be seen at any time, but the most important thing was this item.

Pierce began to mobilize the power in his body to condense a pair of wings behind him. Then, he rushed toward his city.

Behind him were Frost, Vivier, and the Undead Archangel. All of them were very fast. Four different colors appeared in the sky.

Every color was like a sharp sword, gliding and piercing through the clouds. They were hurrying with all their might.

In their current state, it would only take half an hour to reach the city. This was Pierce’s current maximum speed.

The stronger ones, such as the Undead Archangel, only needed ten minutes or five minutes. Therefore, at this moment, Pierce was the one who had lowered the average speed of the entire team.

In just half an hour, they arrived at the city.

Pierce’s figure streaked across the lake’s surface, leaving ripples. It was a spectacular sight…

He had spent some effort on this lake and even put some baby fishes in it. He did not know if they would grow or not.

Pierce slowly landed on the ground, and the others followed behind him. From the start, they had been following behind him without overtaking him.

Slowly, Pierce walked into the city and returned to the living room. He placed the gorgeous box on the table.

After Pierce returned, the others in the city had gathered around him, including the Elven Queen, who was guarding the city.

Her goal now was very simple. She wanted to talk to Pierce about things to increase her strength, so if necessary, she was willing to deepen their relationship.

Her goal was simple. At least Pierce guessed what she wanted after seeing her enthusiasm.

He was happy to see this and did not stop it.

After placing the box on the table, he used the hint system to check. The message said that there was no longer any danger.

Pierce pressed his hands on the sides of the gorgeous box and slowly opened it.

Immediately after, a dazzling white light appeared, and the contents of the box appeared before their eyes.

That thing was very small, about the length of a thumb. It was completely black with some patterns carved on it. If Pierce did not look carefully, he would have thought that it was just a piece of scrap iron.

However, he still remembered the previous warning from the hint.

He quickly checked the item that looked like a piece of scrap metal. The hint gave him an important piece of information.

This ugly black iron piece was actually a key?

Was this a joke?

But since it was appraised by the hint system, Pierce had no doubts.

However, he did not know what this key opened.

While Pierce was thinking this, a notification from the Tower Defense world appeared.

[Congratulations to contestant Pierce for obtaining the key to the Dark World. Keep the key well. It might be useful in the future!]

It was a simple notification, but Pierce was stunned.

The key was used to open the door to the Dark World. But where was the gate to the Dark World?

At this moment, Pierce suddenly remembered that the hint system had warned him not to open the key near the volcano!

Could the gate to the Dark World be hidden near the volcano?

He seemed to suddenly understand everything.
