Quest for Ruins, Arthur's Friendship (Subscribe)

  "You have only three months, in three months' time, no matter what, all of you must return here, otherwise you won't be able to get out!" Bluebeard warned as the crowd entered for the last moment.

  Everyone heard Xia Ming clearly and secretly remembered it in their hearts. In the blink of an eye, they had already disappeared into the space channel.

  Everyone disappeared at once. Bluebeard and four other powerful men could no longer hold on, each recalling their own strength. The passage closed with a loud crash.

  "These young ones are all incredibly gifted, I truly hope they can gain something from the ancient ruins..." One of the elderly men sighed, it was the old magician who had taken action first earlier. He withdrew his magical domain and his breathing was still a bit heavy, clearly the excessive consumption of magic power earlier had drained his strength.

  "Ah, I just hope they all make it out alive!" Bluebeard said coldly, and what he said was indeed the truth. The ancient ruins also had great dangers, but if they could return alive three months later, their strength would inevitably surge.

  "May more than half of them survive..." Another old wizard sighed.

  On this side, the four Bluebeards were still in awe, while Xia Ming and his group had already entered the ancient ruins.

  ……

  "They had arrived……" Xia Ming and the others walked through the space passage opened by Bluebeard, feeling that the world in front of them was getting closer and closer, while the original continent of Canaan was shrinking, like a miniature version of a small world.

  "It's truly amazing, if I had the power of Bluebeard, even the vastness of the three continents would be within my reach! Only with greater strength can one see more beautiful scenery..." Xiaoming sighed inwardly as he swept his gaze around.

  The Holy Council and the Temple stood on opposite sides, with a clear distinction between them, and even a hint of hostility. After all, the contradictions between the Holy Council and the Temple were well-known to everyone. It was just an unspoken understanding. Suddenly, everyone had arrived at this unfamiliar place, and it was natural for them to be on guard against each other.

  Xia Ming and Su Weiwei, Arthur stood together, in this dangerous place, the only way to survive was to stick together.

  "This should be the west side of the ancient ruins." Xia Ming measured it for a while, thinking to himself. He had obtained quite a bit of information about the ancient ruins from Yu Jinhua, so he was somewhat familiar with this place.

  "Everyone go your separate ways. Search for the dark magician, Raidon!" The people of the temple remained wary and cold towards Xiaoming's side.

  Fortunately, these people still had a bit of sanity and didn't start fighting right away. After all, the top priority for everyone at the moment was still to get rid of the wanted black magician, Raidon. Moreover, there were no conflicts between them yet, but if they discovered some treasure that needed to be fought over, it would likely be a different story.

  Everyone in the temple dispersed, and those on the side of the Sacred Council were also looking at each other in dismay.

  "Hmph. I'm not going to be with those people from Souen Academy!" Bat of Nantou Academy snorted, and Daphne nodded in agreement. The three from Nantou Academy took the lead in leaving the group, searching elsewhere.

  Anyway, everyone doesn't understand ancient ruins, it's better to try one's luck, maybe there will be a big gain!

  Nandou Academy took the lead, and people from other academies also left one after another. These individuals were all exceptionally talented geniuses in their respective academies, each with a proud heart, making cooperation almost impossible.

  In the blink of an eye. Everyone had left, leaving only Xiaoming and three others still standing in their original positions.

  "It seems we're really not welcome." Arthur shrugged, and the word "we" brought them closer together.

  Xia Ming took a deep look at Arthur, Su Weiwei was of course completely trustworthy, but Arthur...

  "Hey, what are you staring at me for? Want to have another round with me? This isn't exactly a good place." Arthur smiled slightly, not paying any attention to Xiaoming's gaze.

  Xia Ming smiled, Arthur's state of mind was indeed very good, no wonder he could win the championship for three consecutive years. Xia Ming's current strength is actually only slightly higher than Arthur's, if Arthur were to team up with him and Su Weiwei. It would undoubtedly be very beneficial for Xia Ming and Su Weiwei.

  "When I came, I also heard about the danger here. I consulted a lot of library materials, and on our Canaan continent, there are not many places like this ancient ruin. This place belongs to an independent space outside the mainland, where there are treasures left by our ancestors, but also ferocious beasts..." Arthur said frankly.

  Xia Ming's mind moved slightly. The information Arthur knew was similar to the materials he had obtained from Yu Jinxiang, it seemed that Arthur was indeed sincere.

  "We'll be together here for at least three months, and after that, we'll be a team. We have to take care of each other." As for Arthur, Xiaoming had never had any bad feelings towards him. In the current situation, joining forces was the best option.

  Xia Ming stretched out his hand in a gesture of friendship towards Arthur.

  Who knew Arthur would slap Xiaoming's hand away, and instead punch Xiaoming's shoulder: "Taking a photo together is a must, but you have to be prepared to accept my challenge at any time. I don't believe I can't beat you!" Arthur smiled brightly.

  Xia Ming was taken aback, but a smile spread across his face: "I welcome challenges at any time, but if you want to win against me, I'm afraid you won't have the chance."

  Arthur was also taken aback, and then the two of them looked at each other and laughed, both feeling that the distance between them had narrowed a lot, and for a moment the atmosphere wasn't as awkward as it had been at first.

  "We are now in the midst of a mountain range, with no idea how vast this space is, and our time is limited to only three months, so we can only search quickly!" Once he got along with Arthur, Xiaoming suddenly became calm, sat down on the ground, and analyzed the current situation.

  "That's right, the top priority is to find that black magician, Raiden's hiding place!" Arthur also sat down and said: "Unfortunately, the biggest problem is that we now know nothing about this ancient ruin, and have no way to start!"

  "Even the Sacred Council and the Temple haven't explored this place, we can only rely on ourselves to search now!"

  Xia Ming and the other two made a decision, got up immediately, and started searching in this ancient ruin.

  The three of them moved very quickly and once they made a decision, they started immediately without any hesitation until dusk, but all three of them ended up with nothing.

  "This place is freaking huge! We've been searching for an entire afternoon and still haven't found anything!" Arthur patted his belly, let out a rather uncouth fart, and sat down on the ground with a sigh.

  If his female supporters from the Cangyan Academy were to see him in such a wretched state, they would surely be heartbroken.

  "My stomach is growling, let's eat something first." Xiaoming said, who was also very hungry.

  Su Wei nodded, feeling a bit hungry too. The three of them sat around in a circle, and Xia Ming casually released a fire magic spell, conjuring up a flame. Each of them took out a considerable amount of meat from their spatial rings and began to roast it.

  Xia Ming's skills in barbecue are unquestionable, even Su Weiwei couldn't help but praise him, handing over her meat to Xia Ming. Although she didn't say a word, the meaning in her starry eyes was clear: asking Xia Ming for help with grilling the meat.

  Xia Ming smiled: "I'd be happy to help."

  "Hey, you two, can't you stop showing off your love here?!" Xiaoming's actions elicited a strong protest from Arthur.

  Xia Ming shrugged his shoulders, ignoring Arthur's protesting joke, and soon grilled the two pieces of meat. He handed one to Su Weiwei.

  Su Wei picked up a piece of roasted meat, took a light bite, and felt that the meat was fresh and beautiful, with a fragrance overflowing, the meat presented a golden color, and the taste was really great.

  "It's really delicious." Su Weiwei exclaimed, this guy is actually more talented in cooking than herself, next time the grilled salmon might as well be left to him. Su Weiwei thought of this and couldn't help but smile.

  "Yes, the aroma is so appetizing that it's making my mouth water, this is really delicious food, I haven't smelled such fragrant barbecue for years!"

  A sudden and strange voice rose, and Xiaoming and his three companions, who were eating, all stopped in their tracks. This voice was not one of theirs!

  Xia Ming suddenly lifted his head and looked in the direction of the sound, but there was no shadow at all!

  In the space, a faint rustling sound was emitted, making Xiaoming and the other two vigilant, and they put down the roasted meat in their hands and stood together cautiously.

  "Who is it?" Xia Ming asked coldly, his magic wand raised and ready to strike at any moment.

  It seems that in this ancient ruin, apart from the Sacred Council and the Temple's people, there is only that black magician, Raidon! Could it be...

  No, in this ancient ruin, there are also many wise and ferocious beasts that can speak human language, who knows...

  Xia Ming's mind was racing with thoughts, and for a moment, he thought of several possibilities, but none had been confirmed. He gazed coldly in the direction where the voice came from...
