Chapter 340 Misunderstanding

"...Now, I announce that the team battle session has officially ended. In the competition below level 4, the winning team number is No. 42! The winning team above level 4 is numbered 11!

Next, we will enter the second part of this competition, the exploration of ruins——"

"Before this, high-level professionals from the academy entered the ruins and placed a large number of rune stones in various corners of the ruins. There are four levels of rune stones: black, white, silver, and gold.

Among them, black rune stones are the most common and golden rune stones are the rarest. "

"Every time you obtain a rune stone, you can increase the corresponding number of personal points. The four colors of rune stones correspond to twenty points, fifty points, three hundred points, and one thousand points respectively.

The more hidden the location, the higher the probability of finding high-level rune stones. "

“The entire ruins exploration session lasts for fifteen days. You can choose to explore in a team or to explore freely.

You are allowed to use all your own equipment and items during exploration, and the ownership of all relics found belongs to the discoverer.

At the same time, it is prohibited to leave the ruins during the entire exploration, otherwise it will be treated as a waiver. "

After the awarding of the first round, Vice Dean [Psychedelic Light] Hughes held a staff, suspended on the high platform, and announced the rules of the second round of the competition to all students.

After explaining the rules, Hughes looked around at the many impatient students in the circle and raised the staff in his right hand with a smile.

"Now, I announce that the ruins exploration session...has officially begun!"

As he finished speaking, a purple-gold Pamir Castle heraldry flashed past the head of the staff, which was embedded with a huge crystal.

At the same time, the team composed of many students quickly dispersed and headed towards the direction they had been optimistic about before.

Among the scattered crowd, Anvis glanced briefly and noticed the figure of the half-elf girl Claire.

Just as he had expected, the girl still chose to go in the direction with the fewest people alone.

His eyes flickered, Anvis pulled the hood of his robe and followed quickly.

Since you are allowed to use your own equipment in the exploration session, many students wore a variety of costumes at this time, unlike the uniform Pamir uniforms in the first session.

Some were wearing heavy armor with magic patterns and giant swords on their backs, some were wearing mysterious-looking robes, and there were even some wearing magic armor.

At this time, Anvis was wearing a gray hooded robe and holding a silver-white staff in his hand. He looked inconspicuous.

"Senior Claire, wait for me."

After entering an area of ​​dilapidated ordinary houses with the girl, Anvis called out.

"Avis? You're here."

Hearing the voice behind her, Claire stopped and looked at Anvis with her blue eyes. A hint of joy flashed in her eyes, but almost immediately turned into worry.

"Are you sure you want to explore with me? You should know that this is no joke, and your life may really be in danger!"

"maybe."

Lifting his hood, Anvis looked at the girl quietly and smiled softly.

"But seeing you exploring alone, as a 'companion' who once explored together, I'm a little worried about you."

Looking into the young man's deep blue eyes, a soft spot in Claire's heart was suddenly lightly touched.

"Avis..."

Instinctively touching the ring given by Anvis, which she regarded as a treasure, between her fingers, the girl pursed her lips, feeling a little moved.

Due to her deliberate isolation, most of the other students stayed away from her, thinking she was a weirdo.

Maybe her appearance is very attractive, but professionals are basically handsome men and beautiful women, and there is no one who is not attractive.

No one except the boy cared about her previous move of leaving alone.

However, Anvis' next words directly broke the somewhat strange atmosphere in the field.

"Of course, because I am also afraid of death, this is just a clone of me. I hope you don't mind."

Claire, who was being moved, was stunned for a moment, the expression on her face instantly became very exciting, and she didn't know what to say.

Seeing the girl's interesting reaction, Anvis smiled with great satisfaction.

"So, Senior Sister Claire, do you welcome me?"

Taking a deep breath and looking at the blond boy in front of her, Claire couldn't help but laugh.

"Of course, Avis, you are welcome to come -"

On the other side, Anvis, who was exploring the ruins clock tower with Fiona, turned his head with feeling and glanced in the direction of the clone.

The moment the girl agreed, the clone suddenly received a hint of fate feedback.

The quantity is not large, only about one unit.

But this gave Anvis a little more confidence about what might happen during this trip to the ruins.

Very good, the ruins treasure hunting rat is indeed a ruins treasure hunting rat.

"Brother, come and look, I found the rune stone!"

At this time, Fiona's cheers suddenly came from the top of the stairs.

Anvis raised his eyes and saw that the girl was digging out a small piece of stone from a crack in the wall with a black rune carved on it, and showed it to him with great interest.

"Congratulations, Fey."

Smiling and nodding, Anvis glanced around, and the silver-gray Rubik's Cube in his hand lit up slightly.

As a result, the other two similarly hidden stone pieces were exposed, one black and one white.

.

….….

At this time, outside the ruins.

Marquis Winter stood on a verdant hillside, looking slightly scattered in the direction of the ruins city, wondering what he was thinking.

On another hill far to his side, a ninth-level Enoch family member stood there, seemingly using his mental power to watch the many students in the ruins to prevent them from getting into trouble.

But if you look closely, you will find that his attention is not completely focused on the ruins, but is paying close attention to the movements of Marquis Draka.

Marquis Winter also noticed this, but did not ask anything. Neither of them spoke up to break this delicate situation.

However, sensing the vague gaze from afar, a sensational piece of news from the stranger named ‘Zero’ flashed through the Marquis’ mind again.

‘During the college competition, in order to obtain the secrets of the ruins and establish prestige first, the four major families will take action against a certain Marquis, and the specific candidate and details are unknown. ’

Originally, he sneered at Zero’s obviously provocative news.

But in response to his distrust, Ling just smiled and said a name that made him shudder.

‘Do you remember the fate of the former Marquis of Alk? ’

Because of this name and the news involving hidden things in the ruins, he still paid attention to what Ling said, but didn’t care much.

But when he saw the abnormal reaction of the ninth level of the Itel family and his actions, Marquis Winter suddenly felt a little suspicious.

Could it be that what that guy said was true?
