After exploring all the way and solving many obstacles, the three of them finally appeared in front of a small secret room in the cave.

Bypassing the many demonized spiders that were frozen into popsicles in front of them, the three of them walked into a secret room of no more than ten square meters, and saw that it was covered with dust, and a box was quietly placed on a stone table.

The box is more than 20 centimeters long and wide, five or six centimeters high, the whole body is pitch black, the appearance is dull, and there is nothing special to see.

Joseph's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he stepped forward, waved his hand, cast a spell, and quickly cleaned up the dust on the surface of the box with a fresh breeze, and observed carefully.

After observing for a while, Joseph turned to look at Richard and Boboovich, nodded his head, and confirmed, "Looks like we got the target item." ”

"Is this the box?" asked Pobopovic, still a little unconvinced, after all, the box looked too ordinary.

"Yes, this is the box. Joseph said with great certainty, took out a folded, one-meter-square silver black cloth from his bosom, carefully wrapped the box, and held it in his arms.

After doing this, Joseph said, "Okay, this mission is successfully completed, and we can go back." ”

"This is going back?" Richard said, "The ruins haven't been explored yet, have they?"

The ruins are indeed not explored, the three of them are only half explored at best, and there are still many areas that have not been explored.

When Joseph heard this, he looked at Richard and said, "Wizard Richard, there is indeed room for further exploration of the ruins, but we don't need them. Like you said before, it's enough to freeze those demonized spiders on the ground, and you don't need to kill them again. Our purpose is to get this box from the ruins, and it is the most important thing to rush back to the organization after getting it, and it is completely useless to continue exploring. ”

Listening to Joseph's words, Richard blinked his eyes, feeling that Joseph's words were somewhat unnatural and logical.

An ancient relic means a vast treasure trove to any organization, and it is possible to dig up anything of value from it. If it were possible, how could an organization be eager to dig through ancient ruins and give up halfway?

Looking at Joseph, Richard said tentatively: "Wizard Joseph, what if I'm more curious for personal purposes and want to stay and continue to explore?"

"This!" Joseph's face changed slightly, then quickly returned to normal, and smiled at Richard, "Of course it is possible in theory, but in practice, there may be some problems." ”

"For example?" asked Richard with an eyebrow.

Joseph sighed and said, "Wizard Richard, you have also heard me say that this relic was discovered by the rest of the wizards in the organization, and he belongs to the entire organization, the Truth Society, which is the common wealth of all members. So, if you want to explore it, you have to get the buy-in of the organization.

This mission, the organization only asked us to get this box in my hand and bring it back, and now it has been completed. If you want to continue exploring, without the permission of the organization, I really don't know what trouble to cause, so ...... It's better not to do that. ”

"Wizard Joseph, you mean that you have to get permission to explore the ruins that belong to the Order, even if it's harmless, right?" asked Richard.

"There are processes that always have to be followed. Joseph said softly.

"Shall I apply to explore this site later?" asked Richard.

"Naturally. "However, whether the application can be approved or not is another matter." ”

"Okay, I see. Richard said. I have already guessed in my heart the way the upper echelons of the Truth Society manage and restrict the lower levels, and in this way, for the lower members, the Truth Society is likely to be used for the purpose of most, and it will not let the lower members take too much initiative at all.

"It's good that you understand. Joseph said that he didn't know what Richard understood, but Richard was relieved that he stopped asking.

"Actually, Wizard Richard, if you are really interested in ruins, after trying to enter the core of the organization, with the help of the organization's resources, you will have a large number of ancient ruins to explore. Joseph said.

Is it not want to discourage yourself too much?

Richard thought to himself, looked at Joseph, looked interested, and nodded, "That's the best, I'm looking forward to that time." ”

"Trust me, it won't be long. ”

"Hopefully. ”

"Alright, now that we're done with our mission, let's get out. Pobovich said from the side.

"Good. Richard said.

"Good. Naturally, Joseph would not refuse.

After that, the three of them did not ramble any more, walked out of the secret room, and walked towards the exit of the ruins.

......

More than half an hour later.

Richard, Pobobo Vicky, and Joseph left the ruins and exited through the exit.

It was already noon, the sun was hanging in the middle of the sky, and it was very quiet, and the four-wheeled carriage that had brought the three people was parked not far away, and it didn't look much different from when it entered the ruins.

Joseph held the box wrapped in silver black cloth in his left hand, and pulled out the mask with his right hand against the ruins. With a burst of incantations and spells, the cracked stones flew up from the ground and gathered, and after a "click" sound, the exit quickly returned to a complete stone wall.

Pobobo Vicky stood next to him, took a deep breath of the outside air, and sighed, "It's better to be outside." ”

Joseph closed the exit, turned his head to look at Pobobo Vic and said, "Who said no, but compared to here, it is better to Deland." When we get back to Teresa, I will explain the mission to Steward Canon, and it would be best if you two officially join the Society of Truth. Isn't it, Wizard Richard?" and at the end, Joseph turned his head to look at Richard.

"Indeed......," Richard agreed, and halfway through his sentence, he jerked his head to the northwest.

Joseph and Pobovich both sensed something together and turned their heads to look northwest.

"Brush!"

A dazzling white light exploded in the northwestern sky, almost overshadowing the midday sun, and then vanished.

Then, after a while, there was a muffled "boom" sound from the same direction.

The muffled sound is not loud, and if you don't listen carefully, it's easy to mix in with the sound of insects in your surroundings. But considering the location of the incident and the distance from here, this is staggering enough.

Richard, Bobopol Vicch, and Joseph all looked surprised.

Richard spoke up and judged, "It should be the effect of some kind of rare high-ring spell." ”

"It was definitely done by a fourth-level wizard. Pobobo Vich followed.

"Maybe it was two fourth-level wizards fighting, and one of them was forced to use the stunt of pressing the bottom of the box, which eventually led to what we saw. Richard said.

"Just why?" Pobovich was a little puzzled, "There are very few battles between fourth-level wizards......

Richard and Pobobo Vicch kept talking, but Joseph didn't interject, his eyes looked at the northwest sky, and his lips pursed as if he had thought of something.

In an imperceptible voice, he whispered: "That direction, is it ......?"
