Chapter 61: Instant Teleportation
Meanwhile, Blane who entered the tunnel present on the right corner also saw a white thin curtain blocking his way back.
The tunnel was dark, making it difficult for him to see anything. That's why he walked in a straight line for more than ten minutes.
With a serious expression, he gripped his weapon tightly, ready for anything that would be present at the end of the tunnel.
After walking for five more minutes he finally saw some light and hurriedly crossed the tunnel only to come out from another tunnel present beside the tunnel he entered from.
Blane looked at the familiar open area where he parted with Kyle and Hanson and become speechless.
He wanted to enter another tunnel but unfortunately all the tunnels were closed, making him stick out his tongue with an annoyed expression.
"It seems we can only enter once."
After sighing Blane looked at the tunnels one more time and left the cave with a gloomy expression.
It seem, he wasn't fated to gain anything from this cave.
At the same time, Hanson who entered the middle tunnel appeared inside a small area and his pupil contracted seeing the situation in front of him.
A huge 12-meter brown centipede with 22 legs was fighting with the elves who left before them.
All the elves seemed to have entered the same tunnel but their condition wasn't good at all because the centipede was (-D)-Rank!
There were also three shiny fingers sized orbs floating mid-air on top of the centipede's head.
Hanson looked at the orbs and sighed.
"It's true, we have to fight for every opportunity with our life on the line."
The ground in front of him was caved in and the tunnel was shaking because of the impact of the fight.
While Hanson was standing in front of the tunnel, the centipede suddenly opened its mouth and two tongue-like tentacles came out from his mouth.
It spat out two black color venomous balls toward one of the elves, the elf saw the incoming attack with a horrid expression but it was too late because he was standing in front of the centipede.
One of the black balls landed directly on his abdomen and he was blasted a few centimeters away from the centipede.
A huge hole formed on the elf's abdomen and his whole body turn dark before he died on the spot, seeing the elf's dead body Hanson expression harden.
The remaining 3 elves also looked at the dead body of their companion.
There was sadness in their eyes but it disappeared the next second because they knew they will also experience the same fate if they didn't do anything about the huge monster in front of them.
They also saw Hanson standing in front of the tunnel but they didn't expect anything from him because he was from another race. They only wished Hanson didn't interfere in their battle.
Meanwhile, seeing the situation worsening with every second, Hanson had no choice but to help the elves.
He just reached (-E)-Rank yesterday, after seeing the centipede he wanted to go back but the tunnel was closed off.
With a serious expression, Hanson created ten sharp earth shreds and threw them toward the centipede. The earth shreds didn't affect much the hard shell of the centipede but it was enough to distract its attention for a few seconds.
The elves seized those few seconds and hurdle a lot of attacks on the centipede.
In the end, one more elf got seriously injured but they were able to defeat the centipede.
After the centipede died a small tunnel opened up opposite to them.
The centipede lump body emitted some white particles that entered the elves and Hanson body. The elves looked at Hanson, now the problem was the three orbs floating on top of the centipede body.
One of the elves who looked like the leader of the group sighed and took two of the orbs, he just lost one of his companion that's why he didn't wish to fight more.
After taking the orbs he walked toward the dead body of his friend and took his storage ring before asking the other two elves to follow behind him.
The other two elves glanced at their friend's dead body with helpless expressions. There was nothing they could do.
All of the elves gathered and entered the opened tunnel, leaving Hanson and one of the shiny orb alone.
Hanson looked at the leaving elves and walked toward the remaining shiny orb but when he saw it was a skill core he absorbed it immediately.
He gazed at the dead body of the centipede one more time before entering the opened tunnel without saying anything.
.....
On the other hand, Kyle who just entered the tunnel with a daze expression finally snapped out of his stupor with a sigh.
He looked at the book in his hands, It was an ancient-looking book with strange patterns.
When Kyle looked at the book's cover and read the introduction, his expression changed.
He wasn't able to understand much of the language written on the book cover but there were some words he was familiar with.
The title of the book was 'Instant Teleportation'.
It was an ancient skill which was preserved in a shape of a book!
There wasn't much information regarding the skill but from the title, Kyle got a basic idea about the skill.
With an excited expression, he hurriedly opened the book but the moment Kyle opened the book, it turn into white particles and entered his body.
Information regarding the skill, soon appeared inside his head.
Kyle was a little surprised because he hadn't heard about any method where skills can be preserved inside a book but still, he was happy to gain another skill.
#*Instant Teleportation (A)-Rank:
Teleport within a few meter radius at the speed of lightning. The more mana used the more distance the user can cover. With enough mana, user can even teleport thousand of miles within mere seconds.
Seeing the description of the skill, Kyle was on cloud nine. He was incredibly happy. This skill was a life-saving skill!
As long as he had enough mana he can teleport anytime anywhere.
He still lack agility-type skills, but this skill was 100 times better than any other agility-type skill.
With the amount of mana Kyle had right now he can only teleport once for 2-3 meter distance before exhausting his mana but it was enough for the time being.
