Chapter 172: Finally leaving here
Chapter 172: Finally leaving here
Blake asked the question because after seeing the facility\'s level of traps and security, he was dead sure that Ebony and Ivory was rigged with traps.
[The second question is for you guys to decide. For the first question, I scanned it the moment it appeared, and surprisingly it doesn\'t have any form of array protecting it.] The system\'s words made the trio look at each other in disbelief.
It was almost impossible to believe that a legendary-grade weapon was free to take.
After asking the system to run more checks the result still came back the same, causing them to move on to the second question.
"So, what do you guys think?" Blake asked.
After some time of thinking, Castiel finally spoke up.
"Don\'t know if I speak for both of us, but I think if there is anyone that deserves this it\'s you." Castiel said.
"You were the one that cracked all the arrays while we sat down and did nothing. Even when we had to fight the golems and when we were being chased, it was because of your skills that we are alive right now." Castiel\'s words received nods from Brian.
"I am touched guys, thanks a lot." Blake thanked them and wasted no time as he picked up the great sword.
When he poured in his mana into the sword, a white and darkish red light, lit the eyes of the wolves at the hilt.
The white and red crystal at the end of the hilt also glowed as spikes popped out of the hilt and dug into Blake\'s palm.
It was only a sting, but he could feel a type of energy moving up his right arm till it reached his chest region.
"Argh!!"
Blake dropped to his knees in pain as a hot and cold energy afflicted his chest region.
It stayed in the array for some seconds before making its way into each and every star in his body, causing him to cuddle up in pain.
\'Why do things like this keep happening to me?\' Blake cursed his bad luck as he tried to stand, but that was when both energies went into his head.
\'Fuck me!\'
The hot and cool energy shot into his head, making him feel as if his head was being run over by a steam engine train.
It was so excruciating that his mind was devoid of thoughts and all he could do was blankly stare at the ceiling with his eyes and mouth wide open.
"Damn!" Brian and Castiel couldn\'t help but feel pity for Blake right now.
This wasn\'t the first time they had seen him in such a condition, but this was surely the worst they had seen so far.
Blake looked like he had taken a constipated dump, but ended up to have pooped out his intestines causing the shocked expression.
He was still breathing but his complexion and the bulging veins on his head made them feel like an entity was taking control of his body.
Out of nowhere, Blake\'s body began twitching before his eyes began glowing a white and darkish red light.
"Holy Fuck!" The duo looked at the exit and at each other before instinctively getting closer to each other.
Out of nowhere, Blake gasped for air, creeping out both Brian and Castiel. "What the fuck was that? How did… bounding get… to this?"
[Not only did the sword bound to mana, but to your body and life essence.] The system explained why things had gotten messy.
After catching his breath, Blake once again checked the attributes of Ebony and Ivory. Everything had remained the same, 2 abilities were still greyed out, but he noticed a new thing.
[Name: Ebony and Ivory.

Type: Greatsword (Dual sword.)
Abilities:
·? ? ? ? Disseverance

"What the…" Blake was shocked by the revelation and quickly told Castiel and Brian about it.
"So, you are saying that we are in the research facility of the greatest researcher in the history of Infinite realm?" Brian was awestruck.
[There is a possibility, but I am in doubt of that because Azkelwart is meant to be dead hundreds of thousands of years ago.] The system pointed out an important fact, no one can live forever.
[It\'s hard to believe but a lot of things are pointing towards this. I mean the level of research here is on another level and the amount of wealth used to set all these up isn\'t something anyone could even dream of.] The system explained.
[Intruders detected at the core and energy floor!] The alarm of the core rang at every angle of the facility, breaking up their conversation.
"Fuck! What do we do?" The images of being surrounded by golems sent chills down the spine of Brian.
"Oh!" Blake quickly remembered what he had wanted to do before opening the pod.
"Yes! Okay, let\'s see what we have here." When Blake looked at the journal, the pop-up was gone and it seemed like more features were unlocked.
"Teleportation!" Finally, Blake had found what he was looking for, and after getting more info on how to use it, he beckoned on Castiel and Brian to come closer.
"We are finally leaving here guys." Blake activated the teleportation function from the codex and chose a location using one of the screens.
A purple teleportation array began forming beneath them and before they knew it they found themselves in Bulian hills
___________
Back at the underground facility.
Zirrack had appeared at the teleportation array and had begun moving through the corridors and easily incinerated everything that came in his way but couldn\'t destroy managed to dent the walls.
He had just gotten to the last room Blake was in and was about to go in, but that was when a pink array appeared beneath him.
Before he could jam the array using the adventurer\'s orb, he found himself with the boys.
