At the same time that Gracier fell onto the ground after eliminating Maddog, Alex, Silveria, Luna, and Sera arrived at the location where Gracier was being held captive. It was extremely far from the capital, more thousand kilometers from Avalon, in a small abandoned village in Andoras Principality.
''I never expected it would be this far. Thank you, Sil. You can get some rest.'' Alex said as he watches the pale Silveria; using Accel on such a long-distance was extremely tiring, especially when people were accompanying her.
''I get it. Be prudent. There is a monster inside. Gracier is on the lowest floor unconscious; Ignia told me that she was doing fine. It would be best if you went rescue her before the one I'm talking about manage to get her. He is moving toward her location.''
After giving one last help, Silveria excused herself.
Alex followed by Luna, and lastly, Sera entered the underground maze. Thanks to his Divine Sense, they could locate the first floor quickly; they descended on the first floor. A group of wind wolves welcomed them.
''Awooo~''
Swoosh! Swoosh!!!!
Alex's knives stabbed through the head of the seven wolves before they could get the chance to surround the group.
At the same time, Luna, who was in the middle, looked at her right; there was a shadow lurking in the dark, trying to snipe the group from afar.
''Holy Fist!"
Right before the red goblin archer could shoot his arrow, a gigantic white fist comes crashing toward him; the red goblin was instantly reduced to meat patties.
The group then moved to the second floor at incredible speed, Alex's Divine Sense couldn't explore more than two floors, and the man Silveria warned them about was not only the second floor.
On the second floor, another group of monsters welcomed them, a group of green orcs.
''Leave then to me,'' Sera said before disappearing; she reappeared shortly after.
Twenty orcs around Level 60 were instantly killed; no-calling slaughter should be more appropriate. The twenty orcs had their heads cleanly lopped off.
The group didn't linger on the second; they descended on the third floor, and like on the previous floors, they were welcomed by a group of monsters, this time, it was a bunch of skeletons wearing tattered black robes. There were only ten of them. However, they were all high level, level 70, the strongest was level 72.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Numerous black balls were shot at the group after they appeared; usually, this should have caused some damage to the group; however, before these sinister black balls, which had the stench of death, could land on Alex and the others, a holy white barrier appeared and stopped them before incinerating the black balls.
Kaboom!
Luna sent another holy fist in the form of a hammer that slammed on the ten mage skeletons; while they did not die, most of them got injured, then Alex's attack arrived.
Bang!!!!!
His special undead bullets blew the injured mage skeleton's head.
''Sigh! It starts to get annoying. It's almost as if we are raiding a dungeon.'' Alex said Luna and Sera couldn't help agree with this statement.
Meanwhile, on the fifth floor was the man with golden eyes; he knew that Maddog had somehow lost; even so, he was still calm, turning his toward his back he ordered.
''Go on the sixth floor, bring me that little girl.''
Alice did not say anything before disappearing.
''Hehehe! Back to our business. Since when have you gain your awareness?"
The man asked the girl he held by the neck; this girl was severely bruised all over her body, her right leg was missing, her left arm twisted unnaturally, this girl was the previous 007, currently nicknamed Pandora.
Pandora refused to answer the man's question even when he tightened his hand around her neck.
The man did not become furious at Pandora's refusal to answer his question; on the contrary, there was a vicious smile on his face.
''I see, still stubborn after suffering so much. Well, do not worry, your old friend has come.''
When Pandora heard this, for the first time since the man began torturing her, even chopped off one of her legs, she didn't show any emotions; however, the mention of an old friend coming made her expression change, her eyes momentarily widened before going back, this change didn't go unnoticed by the man, he grinned.
''Hahahaha! I knew it. Well, we knew your past with Alexander. It could be said it was part of our plan all along, targeting you and taking his sister to lead him to us, making him fall in despair before capturing him. You see, someone extremely higher wants him; they have some plans for him. Even I don't know why he was so valuable. He indeed possesses some unusual abilities, but that is all.''
The man with golden eyes didn't hesitate anymore; he told Pandora their real goal, and capturing Alex had been their real goal alone; all others were collateral.
Pandora did not become furious after learning the truth; on the contrary, she wished for nothing but Alex's safety. Although they exist some blur in her memories, most had come back. She knew Alex is brilliant; by now, he would have connected the dots, and from the few interactions they had, Alex was not an ungrateful person; he would avenge them.
Seeing Pandora still have the same expression even after learning the truth, the man got bored, then suddenly his expression changed for a split second before he burst into laughter.
''Hahahaha! What a timely arrival. Almost as if he was saying, plunge me into despair. Good, I shall do that. It was our initial plan anyway.''
The man said Pandora tensed up, although she got severely beaten, her power sealed, her senses were still functioning, so she was able to pick up three presences descending toward this floor at fast speed. Among these three presences was someone she wished to see more than anything. At the same time not, from the other side, Alice was also coming back with Gracier. It was a pretty funny coincidence.
Finally, Alex and the one behind his friend's disappearance and his sister's kidnapping were about to clash.
At the same time, Sera released
