They continued their search after taking a few minutes to rest. After a few minutes, they decided to continue this hunt when they feel their body has recovered.
Leon and his party members encountered the same dinosaur monsters several times. But since their strength had increased exponentially, they could easily overcome those monsters.
"Why are there only raptors and T-Rex here, huh?" Lola suddenly asked in the middle of their journey.
Now that Clyde thought about that, what Lola said was true. Only raptors and T-Rex dinosaurs were attacking them and the other dinosaurs were somehow not present.
Sapionus Rex is definitely an exception because it can't really be said to be a dinosaur with its sword skills and its instinct as an assassin.
"Maybe because they are dinosaurs that are most suitable for use as monsters," Albert answered with a shrug. He himself didn't sound convinced and was just spouting what was in his head at the moment.
"That does make sense, though," said Wiley. "But actually, all prehistoric animals can be made into monsters. Did you know that most of the animals from that era were big?"
They all nodded and gave the same answer indicating that they understood.
"So actually if they want to make all prehistoric animals as monsters they can do it," continued Wiley. "But why didn't they?"
"Whether there are other monsters or not in this Ruin is not certain yet, right?" said Rosie. "We haven't explored all of these places. Who knows, you might find a surprise later."
"This is basically a ruined world," Clyde said suddenly. "So maybe the other monsters have been eradicated too. Anyway, we can't predict anything in a world like this."
"Ah, you're right," Wiley nodded. "I hope there is still a Skill Purchasing Machine left here."
Wiley's words made Clyde flinch a bit because he had never thought of that before. If it's still here that is a very good thing. He needs to add more Skills to his arsenal.
But Clyde immediately extinguished his already soaring hopes. He wasn't sure but shouldn't the Purchasing Skill be a valuable property? Then it's possible that the World Masters have taken it.
Clyde stopped thinking about that and focused on his surroundings. It's possible that another strong monster will appear to ambush them, so they must remain vigilant.
They found nothing for an hour later. They just walked around and saw all kinds of ruins scattered both on the ground and floating unstably in the air.
Clyde almost decided they should just go back to Fortress. However, something he was looking for appeared a few meters ahead.
"That's the pink crystal," Clyde said, pointing to where the pink crystal was.
They immediately headed there. Clyde took out a pickaxe that had been etched with the runes Hammer had given him.
"What's that?" Leon asked with a curious face.
"A magic pickaxe," answered Clyde. He raised the pickaxe and then smashed it against the pink crystal growing from the ground.
*CLANG!*

Maethion carried a brown scroll tied with some kind of golden rope. He entered the room they usually used for meetings.
Vernik and Madri were waiting there and greeted him with a cynical look when he arrived. Maethion already knew that they didn't really like him, especially with what he was doing lately.
Maethion always goes against whatever the two of them agree on. Since the beginning, they have never been in the good term but that does not mean they are enemies with each other. After all, the three of them are together in the Senior Council of Sivagadh Fortress.
"What do you want to say this time?" Vernik asked in an irritated tone. He no longer even hides to hide his feelings for Maethion.
Yet, Maethion couldn't care less about their feelings even if they hated him. Maethion smiled and placed the scroll he had brought on the table.
"This is the information that I got from my source," said Maethion.
Vernik and Madri both frowned. With curious eyes, they stared at the scroll.
Maethion ran his hand over the text written on the scroll. A few seconds after that, the text turned into light of letters that floated in the air.
Vernik and Madri read the text carefully. After finishing reading a few paragraphs, their eyes widened simultaneously.
"No way," Madri muttered in disbelief.
Maethion stayed silent and waited for their reactions to finish. Only then did he continue. "You can trust this information because it is almost valid."
Vernik and Madri admitted that the information brought by Maethion through sources they did not know had a high degree of accuracy.
So, even though the information seemed far from reality, they still couldn't reject it outright.
"The Nexus of Creation," Maethion said with great emphasis. "There's a high chance that I've found it."
"Let's say that was right, what do you want to do?" Vernik asked.
"I want to send a team to go on an expedition and check it out," Marthion replied.
The idea made Vernik and Madri look at him with a surprised look.
"Who will you send?/Samuel and his party?" asked Madri.
"No. I think there's a party better fit for that."
Vernik and Madri immediately realized who Maethion was referring to.
"Don't say that... You want to send Clyde and the five of them?" Vernik asked with a sharp look.
Maethion nodded firmly. "Yes."
They had just had a meeting discussing plans about eliminating Clyde and the five people - who had come with him - their ability to use the system.
But suddenly, Maethion came up with that plan. Vernik and Madri can't help but think that Maethion did it on purpose to protect them. Although Vernik and Mardi didn't quite understand Maethion's reason for doing that.
"I can see their potential. It's possible that they could become minions that we can use to achieve our goals more quickly," Maethion said, pushing up his glasses.
"But if they fail, we have to kill them," Vernik coldly replied.
