Chapter 198: Take It! Grey could only helplessly watch on as Void continued trying to remove the crystal. ‘Well, I still have some time, better not waste it.’ He thought as he dashed in the direction of the herbs on the ground. Since he couldn’t stop Void, why not take some things as well? ‘This herb looks good, I’ll take it!’ He picked up an unknown herb. This ball looks mysterious, I’ll take it! Oh, what is this? I’ll Take it! A red rock? I’ll Take it! Grey could be seen busying around the cave, picking items left and right. He didn’t care what they were or what they did, the only thing in his head was to keep as much as he could before the dragon wakes up. While he was running around, he didn’t forget to start creating an inscription since the dragon would be waking up soon. Within one minute, Grey had managed to pick fifty herbs, as well as over thirty treasures that he had no idea what they were. The only treasure he had an inkling of knowledge to was the defensive elemental weapon, and it seemed to be of the water element. The defensive weapon was surprisingly a blue vest, but Grey didn’t have time to test it out as he immediately kept it. Elemental weapons? Take it! Seeing that he hadn’t acquired any elemental weapons, he decided to take some as well. The reason he was taking them was simple, to use them as gifts when apologizing to his friends for leaving them outside. He knew they would be upset by his somewhat selfish decision, so he hoped after apologizing, as well as giving them gifts, they would forgive him. If only he knew the plans they had for him, then he’d try to kill the dragon so he could cook with it, at least Klaus and Reynolds would forgive him if he offered them dragon meat. Growl… Grey who was about to pick a bow up froze in place when he heard the low growl. He turned his head while still in the same squatting position with his butt slightly higher than his head and looked in the direction of the dragon, and he could see it shaking slightly as Void struggled to remove the crystal completely. To be honest, Grey felt a little scared inside. This was a legendary beast, something he had only read in books, and according to those books, dragons were terrifying creatures. Not just that, but this one was not only stronger than he was, but they’ve currently stolen some of its properties. The crystal Void was currently trying to pull out was more than triple his size, yet he didn’t even think twice about it, since it’s shiny, he had to have it! Grey hurriedly kept the bow, before turning around to prepare himself for what he had been doing most of the time since he came to the trial land, running. ‘*Sigh* To think even at the end, I’ll leave this place while running for my life. It’s amazing how life treats some people.’ He shook his head lightly. But then, a little golden hairpin by the side of the dragon caught his eye, unlike the rest treasures here, the hairpin was closer to the dragon. Maybe it was because of the golden glow it radiated from time to time. No matter what the reason was, it was none of Grey’s business, because, since he’d seen it, then he’ll definitely take it! Boom! Just as Grey picked up the hairpin, the dragon’s tail slammed forcefully into the ground. He looked up only to see Void had removed the crystal completely, he had not only removed it, but he had stored it in his spatial storage. ‘Run, it will take some time before it gets to full power.’ Void appeared some distance away with a satisfied smile on his face. ‘What’s its full power?’ Grey asked as he ran in Void’s direction hoping to leave this place quickly. ‘It’s definitely above Rank Five.’ Void said. ‘Rank Five? Isn’t that like an Overlord Plane Elementalist?’ Grey stopped and asked in shock. ‘Yeah.’ Void nodded before adding, ‘Why did you stop running? Come on, before it catches up.’ ‘Wait, and it’s above it?’ Grey asked again feeling like this gamble was too dangerous. ‘Yes, but don’t worry, it can’t use strength above Peak Rank Four. Although since it’s one of the higher class magical beasts, its strength at that level is way above others.’ Void explained. ‘Why’s that?’ Grey asked a little confused. ‘This place isn’t as simple as it seems…’ Void explained. According to him, there’s a seal or something, that restricts the magical beasts in here not to go above Rank Four in regards to their strength, so even if they were Rank Five or higher, they can only unleash the strength of when they were at the Peak of Rank Four, just like the quasi dragon Grey encountered previously. ‘It’s like the people who previously stayed in this place knew those who would come in here wouldn’t be able to fight against a single beast in the Overlord Plane, such foresight, it’s unbelievable.’ Grey thought to himself. Grey hadn’t gone far from the cave when a loud roar shook the area. Roar! ‘Shit! It’s awake, we need to leave.’ Grey said while creating earth walls behind him to at least impede the movement of the dragon as it chases after them. ‘No need to be scared, it’s just an oversized lizard.’ Void said nonchalantly. Since the dragon couldn’t use its full strength, then he wasn’t really scared of it. He was naturally aware of this, that was why he removed the crystal even though he knew it would wake it up. ‘Oversized lizard! Damn, maybe only Void would dare to call a dragon an oversized lizard.’ Grey was left speechless but Void’s remark. Boom! Boom! The sound of the earth walls being destroyed behind Grey pushed him to increase his speed, but he was unfortunately at his highest speed. ‘To think you’d be running once again.’ Void said a little mockingly. ‘You’re the cause of it you greedy cat, you know what? Now that I think of it, you put me in this situation a lot.’ Grey retorted while running and setting up walls behind him. ‘No I do not.’ Void instantly denied. ‘Oh really, then what about the time you stole the treasure of the Lightning Apes just because it was shiny?’ Grey asked while preparing himself to rise up. He had managed to successfully get to the spot they used in entering the tunnel, and from how loud the sounds of each of his earth walls made when being destroyed, he knew the dragon wasn’t far from him. ‘I’ll definitely have a dragon as a mount someday.’ He vowed to himself. If he had a dragon, just the mention of it alone would evoke fear in the heart of his opponents, unfortunately, he wouldn’t be able to catch the one. Boom! Bang! Grey soon came out from the hole in the tree and dashed in the opposite direction his friends took. At this current speed, the dragon would be able to catch up to him in about five minutes or so, if that happens, then he had to rely on using the Fusion State so they could survive.
