They immediately noticed the difference.
Before them was a dried-up river that was more than ten meters deep. Spider webs covered it.
On the other side of the river was a smooth piece of land without a single spider web.
One could even see some cultivated fields that grew green vegetables that did not match the surrounding environment.
!!
Richard also perked up.
He turned and looked at the god’s ancient tree that covered the sky behind him.
“Treebeard, you stay here and send out the slaughter wasps to protect the surroundings from accidents.”
Treebeard answered loudly after the instruction.
“All troops, cross the river!”
Richard spoke, and Alves flapped its wings and flew across the hundred-meter-wide dried river in a breath.
Richard crossed the river. He felt like one must have unlocked a shackle. That lifted his spirit.
[Ding~ You have discovered an ancient remnant village. You have triggered a side mission–Expel Evil]
[In the ancient era, a terrifying battle affected this plane, and several gods fell here.]
[The ruler of the 500th level of the bottomless abyss, the spider queen Lolita, sent a troop to invade this plane. They occupied the land that initially belonged to the natives of this world. She ruled for countless years.]
[However, the remaining survivors of this plane constantly yearned to expel the evil.]
[Please fulfill the desire of the ancient survivors and expel the evil.]
[Mission Reward: The ancient remnants will distribute the rewards. The reward will be related to the completion of the mission.]
The notification piqued Richard’s interest.
“Side mission, Expel Evil, ancient remnants?
There was indeed something.
The other players also shouted.
“I received it too, Expel Evil!”
“What a coincidence! Me too!”
Richard heard the noise behind him and glared at the idiots.
“Shut up.”
The indifferent voice made everyone swallow their remarks.
It was like one had pressed the pause button. And one dared not to say anything else.
Richard ignored them and ordered Alves to fly straight into the ancient village.
Traces of history shrouded the buildings below and were preeminently unique.
They arrived at the central area, a relatively wide square after they passed through the rows of stone houses.
‘Whoosh!’
Alves landed directly.
Richard flipped over and steadied himself.
He swept his gaze around and spoke slowly to the empty village.
“The Lord of Twilight, Richard, is here to meet you.”
