Master Of None Chapter 1272 1272. Rushing Back

"Midnight, let's go close that door. We are all staying together until we get out of this dangerous place." Midnight was at a complete loss. She had been waiting patiently and now found that the rest of the party had rushed up with stress and seriousness. She was automatically pushed in to a ready to fight stance.

"Don't worry too much. We are getting out of here. Those bugs won't even have a chance to touch us." Rey gave Midnight a push while the group ran towards the storage area they had co across. Midnight had been training a little and even took the ti to scratch her wings. But now she would be running full speed with the rest of them.

"I have a bad feeling…" Onyx was worried about his family. They were still down in the caves and it had not been long since he and Alice surfaced. He had reveled in the joy that the hatchling abyssal serpents had as they saw the sun for the first ti. The one that Alice had been carrying hatched halfway up the main tunnel they had climbed. It had been greeted by the other hatchlings and begun to devour the light elental mana in the crystal.

Since Alice had the sa nerves as Onyx, she did not push against him. Instead, she started to sing softly. It was an uplifting tune that brightened the area around them. The light elental mana was condensed and Onyx found that the hatchling abyssal serpents were able to rest more comfortably and absorb the light. The look Alice gave him told him all he needed.

"I will go and check on them. I will be back soon."

While the other guards ca to view the little abyssal serpents a harsh breeze caught them and made everyone look up. The sight of Scylla descending was enough to make them all back away. The hatchlings hid inside Alice's shadow when she stopped singing. "Three. There are three of them. We need to retreat and gather forces now."

Alice wasn't sure what she was being told and the confusion was plain on her face. "There are three ravines, not one. And two already have those ants crawling out of them. We are retreating and will co back with the dwarves. The entire field land area is off limits for any adventurers, rchants, and foolish tars."

"What about the little heroes down there? One just went back down!" The guard leader was ready to stay and wait for them.

"They will be coming with us. Can't you hear them coming from this spot? They are sprinting. That ans they already know the trouble down there." Of course, Scylla had received a communication but it was better to let the guards know that there should be haste in this situation. "Get those little serpents to hide away with you. I am taking you all back to Genesis where we will plan faster. I should be able to make it in an instant. That carriage can be handled by Walker." The urgency was not missed.

As the large head of Onyx returned to their sight, everyone noticed the party holding on to his back. They had t in the long tunnels and Onyx had allowed them to grab on for a speedy return. "Scylla, I assu you were nearby.? Good, we need to get out of here. I sealed the storage room where we found records and other stuff in. Hopefully, that lets us return to investigate later. I have plenty of other things to return with. But for now, we should get away. I can't even imagine how-"

"I know, there are three more ravines that I found. I'm sure you noticed them opening in so form. We are leaving. I assu you notified the others in Genesis and they are preparing." Scylla dropped this on them and no one could fight against it. Seeing Scylla use her mastery skill again was magnificent. However, Walker was able to see the similarities between her and the murals that they were able to find in the tunnels. However, Walker could also see that Scylla had slightly different changes in her forms. There were fewer hounds that grew from the water in the air and she didn't focus on battle. She was using this for speed to make sure that she would be able to protect them. It was much more controlled this ti.

"Everyone brace yourself for the wind, especially you guys. You have never been transported by a general with a crazy mastery skill." Walker chuckled while he thought about the dangers of three ravines in all releasing these giant ants. He had barely managed to store away the carriage and the guard's supplies before he was scooped up by Scylla in to the air.

As they rose higher everyone is able to get a sight of the newly opened ravines in the distance. The crawling dots were the giant earth ants. Their numbers were not small and they all knew the dangers that ca with that. It was a matter of ti before they would take over this area as their territory. Once the party was back in Genesis they would have a whole new task to deal with. One separate from the competitions going on that they thought they would enjoy while helping Onyx.
