Chapter 2083. Ruin Forest

2083 2083. Ruin Forest

"I wouldn't say that they carved out a place as a home. Whatever race came here before us, made this entire mountain a temple because it was a place where the layers between the elemental planes and the world were thinner." Considering what Walker said, Gil felt that it was a little odd then. This place was a somewhat far off island in the middle of the ocean. There happened to be a mountain here. Then that mountain just happened to be perfect for carving out the stone to be able to make some massive temple that was able to connect the elemental planes to the world? "Who could even do that?" Now Gil was sure that the race was the most ancient one. But how did they manage in a time when even the ancient monsters would have struggled. "You tell me. If we knew that, then we might know more about the ancient world. About everything that makes up the world. But maybe they are off in the elemental planes. A race none of us have met yet." Walker shrugged a little. Even in this situation, they could all wonder about these things. Imagine what might have once been. While they seemed a bit lax, the party had already fallen in to their natural formation. They moved like this all the time. It was something of a second nature to them at this point. But they could also hear battles in the distance. The change to squads for the warriors of Genesis was a great idea. This was a way for them to work together while maintaining safety. Those that were fighting were not making loud sounds of defeat and injury. Walker could hear the cheers of victory as they defeated the corrupted undead monsters. Now that they had the advantage due to the monsters being unable to regenerate their bodies, things would move along much faster. "Remey. Are you alright one mana?" Su's double check brought Walker to pull out one of the fire affinity potions and mana potions. He gave it to Remey even though he was sure she had some on her waist potion holders. "I will be fine. I just was under a lot of pressure when I faced Sloth. He is very powerful, but it costs a lot. Just being around him damaged me." Remey had streaks of dried blood on her face. No visible injuries, but the internal effects of being bombarded by waves of dense mana would be left behind. Walker also used a healing skill on her just to be safe. Not that it did much since Remey was fairly strong. Her unique new race had some damn good healing effects. The soul being perfectly fused with the body allowed it all to be more malleable and accepting of its own natural regeneration. Basically, she was harder to keep down if someone were to fight her. In the end, she would be able to punch more. With Remey taken care of, Walker's eyes shifted to where Onyx and Midnight had taken a little bit of the lead. They were examining some of the stone pisces that had been overtaken by the forest here. Vines and roots cracking the stones here and there while moss covered it all. 'Salt moss

This is a unique moss that enjoys the salty air nearby a beach. Many islands can become taken over by this moss unless they are eaten by monsters. While normal people would not touch this moss, it is actually a very good soup ingredient. It adds salt along with important minerals before the rocks it grows on. It can also be used as a way to grow breathable oxygen in caves. Just put salt for it to consume as it grows in a damp caves. This was used by an ancient race to hunt for certain ores when they were more plentiful…'

There wasn't much more that Walker paid attention to. Seeing that this was a useful item from caves, he stored a few pieces away in his high spatial storage. But more importantly, he mentioned to the others that a race had once used this moss. Now it just grew here naturally. "So the race that was here did a lot. Brother, should we try to find stones with writing like we have other ruins?" Onyx had a good pint, but he was also thinking the same way as if they had more time to explore. "I want to say yes, but for now, we need to push in to the mountain. The trees here are part of the ruins, but that mountain is the vore we need to get in to." Walker looked up through the tree leaves. He saw the large mountain of ruined structures and overgrown forest that rose ahead of them. This place would hold their long expected battle. "enemies." Midnight warned them of the sudden approach from the right. The leaves were being pushed apart by something moving fast from their right. The foliage had acted as a warning that helped the group prepare. Su having his shield set together to defend the entire party. A deer stopped right in front of them. A white fur covering its body along with antlers that carried the same moss on the rocks. But it was clearly alive. Frozen in place due to fear alive. It had been running from something. Before Walker could look at the all around appraisal. A skeletal angel stabbed out trying to attack the deer. It was shot down by an arrow from Gil though. It had walked right in to the one hit kill. Its skeletal head shattering with the strength of the light arrow. This gave Walker the chance to focus on an appraisal quickly. 'White moss deer

A species of deer monster that has been untouched on a single island for generations. It loved to consume only the salt moss and other salty herbs that naturally hold a great deal of minerals. Their fur is higher coated in salt causing them to become salt bleached. Since it has no predators on its island, it will have trouble escaping predators when they appear. This has been the case in various instances when the island was invaded by aquatic monsters. Yet this species of monster has still survived due to the incredible speed and evasion they have compared to most others. They can have unique earth mana within their meat. This allows them to be eaten for greater benefits when someone studying earth mana is the one to do it. However, the salt content will surely make someone ill…'

Walker shared this with the group while the white moss deer sniffed the air and slowly moved back in to the forest. From what they had grasped, it did not fear them since they didn't show any hostility. But the undead monsters it would run from. "So there are real monsters here too. Not abandoned." Remey felt that this was just the case since they had seen some remains of monsters on the beach. Plus, it would be impossible for so many plants to grow in a pace where monsters couldn't live. "We need to handle the corrupted undead before these monsters suffer." as if to support what Walker had said, the cry of a nearby monster made them all pay closer attention. What they had just heard wasn't from a corrupted undead, but a monster feeling the end of its life. That meant more undead were attacking the natural species on this island. "Great, now we need to fix this forest too." Gil was a bot annoyed realizing that as someone carrying the blood of a real high elf, that he needed to stand up for nature being damaged here. Especially a very rare monster that only lived on his one and only island. "Gil, the other elves are following along. We are not the only group here. We need to go inside the ruins." feeling bad for being forceful like this, Su steeled herself. They had goals to fight the demon lord. They had to ensure that they could do so. The Genesis forces were here to allow them that opportunity. They all stepped forward in unison. The larger roots of trees curling around the forest floor as the stones caused them tioo grow in odd ways. The terrain was not the best, but it was all too telling. Large steps that had once been here to allow many people to walk through this area. Many different broken pedestals that may have once held anything from books or just been resting spaces. Regardless, these ruins had been incredibly detailed before the forests had taken this place over completely. The slight sense of mana made all of them begin to prepare for the worst. They all had sensed a larger mana that should be a mages' mana. The only one with such skills being Walker right here. So, it was someone or something else. …
