The teammates quickly gathered around the map, trying to see anything from the light hole in all angles and soon, Ainsley's 3D map was slowly updated! The map became more complete because it only showed the image of the mysterious light hole and soon, everyone saw the complete picture of this light hole. To everyone's surprise, this hole was not like their previous conspiracy theory with a beast hiding behind the light, opening its bloody mouth to pounce on the fooled little prey. The light hole was just...an ordinary hole in the middle of two huge Acacia roots, but this hole looked different from the usual gaps that everyone saw in the slum or in the town. This 'gap' was bigger than any gap, and it looked more like a gate than a hole. It was just that, the shape of this gate was abstract because of the complicated root system around it. Everyone could see the strange ripples on the surface of the gate but there were no monsters or beasts around that 'hole'. So...how could there be ripples? This hole itself was a strange existence, so everyone was more willing to believe that this was the exit that they had been looking for! The group double-checked the image projected on the 3D map cautiously and even asked Ainsley with trembling voices. Follow current on novelenglish.net
"Little girl, we can trust your map, right? There won't be any errors or something, right? Can it distinguish between illusion and reality? I'm afraid that this hole is just an illusion..." The group members were not wrong to ask things like this because everyone also felt that the strange hole was not as simple as it looked like. But if this shining hole was not the exit, then where was the exit? Should they go around the place to see whether there were any other exits? "My map is really reliable and if there is an error, the image won't be as clear as now. Also, an illusion can't fool a sound wave unless the illusion has some kind of magnetic field." After hearing Ainsley's explanation, the group did ask Ainsley to scan other places as well to see whether there were other places that looked like the exit of the slum, but there was no similar existence within hundreds of meters. The group didn't have time to personally confirm the location of exits that might not even exist and now, it was less than thirty minutes before the sun went down. They had not even gone to find the mysterious monster's cub, so they had to hurry! The group looked at each other and finally asked the mermaid, the leader of the group, to make a decision. "Whatever decision you make, we won't blame you, leader! Anyway, we only have this one hope so even if this thing might be dangerous, we have no choice but to bite the bullet, right?" The glasses man encouraged the mermaid and others also nodded at the mermaid, trusting the leader's decision. Follow current on novel-online.com
Anyway, they all felt with their intuition that they honed for years that this hole should not be something good, but it could indeed help them leave this ghostly place. The mermaid also had the same idea as the teammates. As a native of the sea, she knew more about such light holes and from what she knew, usually, such holes would bring bad news. However, if they could leave this place, they would be willing even if they had to go to a more dangerous place. After all, as long as they were not trapped in the maze-like slum, there would still be many ways to survive and escape! The slum was just too annoying, not only because of the lack of light but also the flock of slum monsters. The group was already tired looking at the bunch of monsters who knew nothing but to eat and survive. If they could leave this place, they were willing to fight a more dangerous existence! Thus, the mermaid finally decided to enter the light hole. eαglesnᴏνel "Let's enter the light hole but everyone, please strengthen the barrier and make sure none of us are suddenly thrown away from the barrier." So far, the monsters behind never could separate them from the barrier, which was one of the good news they had. Follow current on storynovel.net
But facing a new possibility, everyone became tense. After everyone prepared themselves, the mermaid slowly manipulated the water barrier around the glass bead barrier to approach the light hole. From this distance, they could only see the faint light coming out of that hole, but as they went closer, one could clearly see the blinding light from that hole. The light was indeed the same as the one shown on the map and it looked similar to an underwater place that was illuminated by the natural sunlight. However, the slight ripples on the surface of that gate-like hole which went against the usual water flow did look suspicious. "How come this thing looks more and more like a portal? Don't tell me the exit is indeed a portal? Are there any beasts or monsters in the town with a space element ability?" If that was the case, it was no wonder the town and the slum could be so big when this lake should not be too big and the location of the town was also strange. They clearly remembered that this town was in the area where sunlight could still come in, but the town and the slum looked like a deep sea, as if it was not a lake at all. Or maybe the lake was deeper than they thought? But even so, the location of Acacia Town and the slum were all strange!WANT MORE CHAPTERS?!
