From MC's perspective:
I began to search the surroundings after taking some rest. But so far I haven't been able to find a clue. When I'm inspecting one side of the cave wall.
I found a narrow opening that leads to some kind of room. Seeing that, I immediately used the spells to widen the gap.
The cave walls crumbled and dropped down leaning behind a large opening. Seeing this I walked inside.
When the lights illuminated the surroundings. Everything becomes clear. It's a run-down secret room. My eyes scanned the walls before my gaze fell in the middle of the room.
My eyes lit up with surprise. A star-shaped pattern can be seen on the ground. In the middle of the drawing, there was an unknown object.
For a moment, I became hesitant. I'm afraid that there would be an unknown restriction in this place. But after getting no warning from the system.
I walk toward the object. When I got closer I saw the object. It's a black color star pendant. My eyes flickered with a slight glint. Normally the pendant or necklace was associated with magic.
Essentially in this location. It's undoubtedly a magic object. So I decided to use the system.
"System, inspect the target," I said to the system.
[Ding! The host's command is recognized.]
[Scanning the object: 0%]
.
.
[Scanning the object: 99%]
[Ding! The scanning is complete.]
[Result: Unknown]
Seeing the result on the status panel. A disappointment flashes in my eyes. For a second, I assumed it was a super relic.
But now facing the harsh reality. I see how rare such relics exist in the world. It was good to come across one. And I don't know how many such relics exist in our world.
A look of yearning appeared in my eyes. But in one way or another. I will find those rare relics to improve my talent.
Then after canceling the status panel, I picked up the star pendant and placed it in my system space. What can I say that the thing is not broken?
If I become stronger in the future, then the system would be able to find the details. After sorting out everything, I decided to leave.
Time went by,
After a few hours, I walked out of the cave structure. Looking back at the cave structure. I thought about destroying it.
But again, I have already wasted so much time around here. And I got only three passes so far. Which is not enough to top the rankings.
After making the decision, I immediately left the place and moved towards the central area. From my previous interrogation of those two guys.
I know that there is an important place where the higher-level wizards seem to have lost their lives decades ago. I guess that pace holds more opportunities compared to these few restricted areas.
Meanwhile,
The wizards from the Weapon Palace and the Royal Force Hall met with each other and conflict broke out.
Though outside, these two academies are in cooperation. But here the wizards are on their own. Everyone cared about their self-interest.
So they didn't hesitate to attack each other to collect the passes.
So fierce battle broke out resulting in heavy casualties.
Similarly, the Yellow River Academy Wizards met with an unfortunate incident also. Apart from Lara White others are struggling hard to survive. They fought with monsters and other small faction wizards continuously.
Time passes in a blink of an eye,
The following day,
The bright sky above my head. The surrounding area seems to be a town area. But I see no evidence of structure except the one building in front.
Seeing that quick glint flashes in my eyes.
I made it to the new place after a long journey. This time the place seems to be a private facility. There is only one building in this spot in the middle of nowhere.
So I'm quite intrigued to inspect the place. But before going in, I decided to meditate. So I disappeared from the and appeared inside the Gregor Mansion.
I came to the hall and sat cross-legged on the ground. I closed my eyes and began to run the gravity ark mental method.
Slowly I began to absorb the gravity mana particles from the surroundings. When the particles entered my body, I guided the energy according to the method.
After circulation, the energy settles down in the mana core. I repeated the process.
Three hours later,
I opened my eyes. Feeling the strong mana reserve again, my mouth curves into an arc.
"System, show me the status panel," I said to the system.

[Title: Lord of Gregor Manson.]
[Storage space items: Earth Golem Puppet, Black Star Pendant, Magic Cloak, The Gregor Manson, Magic artifact, herbs, potions, and spell books...etc..,]
A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Seeing my strength increase once again. I felt a sense of satisfaction. But this is not enough.
After facing the 6th-order monster, I realized my major flaw. Which is my current level. I'm a level-5 Sub-Taboo wizard who can fight against 6th-order monsters.
But if not for the magic cloak my situation would have been different. So I need something similar to a magic cloak that can make up for my flaws.
I couldn't help but think about the women. Elder John's friend. Her name is Kate Cohens. If I recall correctly, she captured the level-6 wizard by using the pyramid-shaped artifact.
That scene was badass! The level-6 wizard was helpless at that time. If I could make a similar artifact, it would solve all of my worries.
Then after pushing down these thoughts. I went to take a shower. After changing into fresh clothes, I appeared outside.
Seeing that there was no monster around here. I walked to the building.
Rumble~
But suddenly I felt movement beneath the ground.
Swish!
I leaped backward and widened the gap between me and the building within seconds.
"This building," I uttered in surprise. Because I see no monster whatsoever. So where does the movement come from?
Then a sudden realization struck my mind.
There is a front courtyard before the main building. If I need to go there, I need to cross the front courtyard.
I have a vague feeling that the problem comes from the courtyard. If my guess is correct, it could be a worm-type monster.
After gaining some clarity, I moved slowly toward the place.
Rumble~
Again, I felt the vibration. But this time it was not so loud. I guess it's some kind of warning.
When I got closer. "System, probe the target's details," I Instructed the system mind.
[Ding! Host's command is recognized.]
[Ding! The command is executed.]
[Status Panel]
[Target's Name: Worm Monster]
[Type: Earth elemental Monster]
[Order: 4th order early level]
[Strength: 310]
[Vitality: 314]
[Speed: 312]
[Stamina: 313]
[Skill: Sand Attack. Acid Saliva]
Seeing the details on the status panel. My doubt got cleared. So without thinking further, I walked up to confront the monster.
Rumble~
The worm monster made its appearance with a disgusting body. The harmful acids were dripping from its skin.
If anyone touches the skin, it would harm them immediately.
Meanwhile, I didn't hesitate to release the magic spells. Especially after seeing the disgusting body. I cast the spells instantly.
"Gravity Field," I said.
A tremendous pressure appeared out of nowhere and landed a blow to the worm monster.
Pfff!
The 4th order monster turmincednto mince meat without any resistance. Seeing no resistance from the monster. I decided to check.
"System, probe the target's details," I Instructed the system mind.
[Ding! Host's command is recognized.]
[Ding! The command is executed.]
[Status Panel]
[Target's Name: Worm Monster]
[Type: Earth elemental Monster]
[Order: 4th order early level]
[Strength: 0/310]
[Vitality: 0/314]
[Speed: 0/312]
[Stamina: 0/313]
[Skill: Sand Attack. Acid Saliva]
Seeing the status, I confirmed its death. But I doubt I can get the crystal gem from the monster's head. I think it was crushed as well from the attack.
Then pushing down these thoughts, I decided to go ahead. The random appearance of the monster made me think further.
This place may have many monsters. So I need to move cautiously. I don't want to face a surprise attack from the monster.
