walls.
Gerald followed behind, amazed by the level of civilization in this world.
Geza the Great ruled before Lamont Valdez, which meant that his civilization existed before the one that was destroyed on Earth. At his time, the Underground Palace had already been built with a modern look. The corridors behind the palaceâs main gate were all technological products. It was common to see automatic doors and discarded robots. on the ground.
However, this place had been damaged quite a bit. Most of the surrounding walls had been excavated by Treasure Hunters, revealing some pits and bumps with water dripping down.
Anger flashed across Kristopherâs face at the sight.
With a gloomy expression, he walked down the dug-out stairs that led toward the Underground Palace.
Gerald was shocked the moment he walked down the corridor.
Below, the entire mountain seems to have been hollowed out. The Underground Palace was an eternal city illuminated by energy sources. It had been shining for thousands of years and had yet to extinguish!
The Underground Palace consisted of magnificent towers and buildings.
It covered an extremely wide area.
It was even bigger than the Burial Ground Gerald had discovered.
It was more like an underground city than a palace.

Get Porus However, the city was in a bit of a mess. Most houses had collapsed, and figures could be seen moving about in the Underground Palace. It was clear that there were still many people searching the palace.
Gerald was speechless to see that nearly all the houses in the Underground Palace were thoroughly searched by treasure hunters during this period.
Many stone pillars had been cut off. It was unknown whether they were broken during a conflict or removed and taken away by Treasure Hunters.
In short, the place was a mess!
The Underground Palace was divided into two sections, separated by flowing magma.
There seemed to be two banks to the magma river, but the opposite bank was not open.
âMost people can probably cross this magma, right?â Carolyn couldnât help but ask in a soft voice.
Ms. Cat explained, âMany have tried to cross the river, but it is difficult for those without magma or fire attributes to make it across. Some have tried to use hover cars or similar methods, but they sank instantly. The central area of the palace contains many automated devices and mechanisms.â
She smiled bitterly upon speaking of the matter. âOne of my ancestors had the Dragon Bone. One of his attributes was manufacturing. This attribute is also known as the âCraftsman Attribute-related Abilityâ,â she explained.
âSimply put, he was able to create many technological products, such as hover cars. As long as he had the product, he was able to quickly understand the structure of an object.
and manufacture them. He can also easily assimilate knowledge from scientific books and apply it to practical use,â Miss Cat said with a smile.
Gerald was dumbfounded. He didnât expect that there was such an attribute-related ability in this world.
Or perhaps, it was because of the characteristics of the level of Flame Decay that civilization in this world developed so rapidly, he thought.
Gerald still had no perception of the Flame Decayerâs combat power.

CH Bocs Ms. Cat continued, âTherefore, there must still be a lot of mechanisms in his tomb. Many Treasure Hunters have died on the outskirts of the city. You guys may be the key to the central area, but thatâs just a guess. Weâll only know whether itâs true after we get there.â
âExperts have tried to force it open, but the central area across the hall started to self-destruct when they were halfway through, causing the palace to tremble. It seemed like the palace would sink at any time, so they had to retreat,â she explained.
While she spoke, Gerald noticed massive sculptures of a dragon and a phoenix in the far distance by the edge of the magma.
Similar sculptures were placed in perfectly symmetrical positions on the opposite bank.
Do their positions correspond to the location of the mechanisms? Will a bridge form between them if theyâre activated? Gerald wondered.
Of course, this was just his wild guess. He didnât know exactly how it would work.
He looked ahead and carefully signaled to Valery and Carolyn once more.
Although they failed to escape, he was still thinking of ways to make a break for it.
He didnât believe in Kristopher at all. Although Ms. Cat was Geza the Greatâs descendent, she had no way to influence Kristopherâs thoughts.
Gerald had no idea how Kristopher would deal with him after the Underground Palace was opened. His instincts told him that Kristopher wouldnât let him leave safely.
As he would be of no use once the Underground Palace was opened, he feared that Kristopher would attack him then.
He thought of stalling for time. Since the Eight Forces were sure to investigate the Underground Palace, he would have a chance to escape when their people arrived.
Of course, he still had no intentions of joining the Eight Forces.
Not to mention the many rules and restrictions after joining, it is uncertain whether the Eight Forces will even allow him to live after he joined. Gerald didnât come from their main lineage, so they had no reason to believe in him.
Itâd be better to do away with him and replace the Dragon Bone with someone with better Chapter 991 Massive Dragon and Phoenix Statues 97.59%
Clet Bant talent from their lineage.
Gerald thought that if he and Carolyn were really the keys, then he would open the Underground Palace when the Eight Forces arrived.
There were bound to be endless treasures in Geza the Greatâs Underground Palace that the Eight Forces would fight amongst themselves for. When the time comes, would they choose each other or the Underground Palaceâs treasures? Gerald wondered.
If they chose the treasures, they would fight each other to death.
Although the chances of that happening were slim, Gerald decided to give it a try.
The worst-case scenario would be to join either of the forces to seek temporary safety before making further plans.
That was Geraldâs idea.
Kristopher looked ahead calmly. Just then, over 20 people came down to the Underground Palace.
âLetâs go! We have to hurry. Those big shots are probably arriving soon,â he urged.
He walked ahead expressionlessly.
Gerald let out a long sigh. He had almost fully recovered from his injuries.
The healing power of Valeryâs life attribute was quite amazing.
Valery, on the other hand, remained calm as she followed Gerald and the others closely.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the statue.
Gerald only realized how massive the statues were when he stood before them. They were at least 250 to 300 feet tall and made of an unknown material. Despite being many years old, they were still in pristine condition.
âAll of you, go to your respective statues and release your attribute-related abilities to inject Vital Energy into them,â Kristopher commanded.
Gerald and Carolyn were in no hurry. He looked at Kristopher and asked, âIf it opens, or if weâre not the keys, youâll let us go, right?â

Get Bonus âYou donât have a choice,â Kristopher replied calmly.
He didnât promise anything.
Gerald cursed silently. This jerk really canât be trusted!
Ms. Cat frowned and said, âKristopher, donât go too far. You promised me.â
âSpeed up! Or Iâll end all of you and find someone to replace your blood to inherit your bloodline. The most I have to do is wait a little longer,â Kristopher sneered.
Gerald scoffed bitterly and glanced at Carolyn. They walked to their respective statues.
They then put their hands on the statue.
In the next moment, they injected their Vital Energy.
There was a buzzing sound as they did so.
The moment Vital Energy was injected, shadows of a dragon and phoenix appeared above Geraldâs and Carolynâs heads.
The ground of the Underground Palace began to tremble slightly.
Meanwhile, Geraldâs and Carolynâs expressions became a little odd.
