Ning spoke for a few more minutes, confirming the terms of his aid.
He was to receive a good chunk of money for removing the SS-ranked dungeon, but anything he got from inside there, except the dungeon boss's core would be their property.
Ning agreed easily as there wasn't much need for SS-ranked mana stones for him anyway. He had so other plan for that himself.
The Apostles there tried to talk with him, but Ning kept asking for them to co with him to the dungeon, so they stopped talking with him.
Ning was slightly rude to them partly because he didn't want to be friends with them at all, and partly because their constellations were staring at him and he was getting annoyed.
"Now that everything has been finalized, I will go clear the dungeon," Ning said and stood up to leave.
"Yes, let's go," the director said and took him along.
Once out, Ning t up with Ely and the rest. When the director realized that Ely and the other two were going to go along with Ning, he was surprised.
"Who are these people exactly?" the director asked. He tried to figure out if these were the apostles from Korea, but as far as he knew, they were so people else.
"These are my family," Ning said. "This is my wife, and these three are soone I adopted."
"Oh, I didn't realize you had brought your wife and children along," the director said with a weird look on his face.
Sorlus was young enough that he could be adopted by Ning, but no matter how he looked at it, there was no way either Night or Blue could be Ning's children at all.
At best, he looked 30 years old.
"I will have rooms reserved for them in a hotel while you clear the dungeon," the director said and looked towards his assistant to give the order.
However, before he could do it, Ning shook his head. "I can't let you do that," Ning said. "I brought them here so they can enter the dungeon with . They have been excited about it since I told them about it a few hours ago."
"What?" the director couldn't help but shout in surprise. He wondered if Ning was an idiot for sending his family to danger. Especially in a place like an SS-ranked Dungeon.
"Are you sure, Apostle Ning?" the director asked. "It could be very dangerous."
"Haha! Don't worry. Such a thing is easy for . I have the power of 5 gods on my side after all," he said with a proud expression on his face.
"What? 5 gods?" one of the apostles not far away shouted in surprise.
"Ye, 5," Ning said. "Yemis, Thalaxus, Graves, Noraxis, and Helus are the 5 gods that are helping today."
He was doing his part of making the 5 constellations popular so they would be enticed to continue keeping their alliance with each other, without the thought of betrayal ever crossing their head.
Later, he would spread the news through so interviews as well and maybe even help remove those mana circuit problems from many that were still unconscious.
'I should try and improve my mana too,' Ning thought. As of now, he was only a Tier 5 mage. He needed to be tier 8 for removing the mana poisoning permanently.
The director was still surprised, perhaps far more so even as he realized what it ant to be blessed by 5 gods at once. He could see why Ning was as strong as he was said to be.
They drove about half an hour before appearing inside the city of Berlin in an area that was not as populated.
It used to be the most populated place in the entire city, but after the dungeon break, many people died, and thus not many chose to live here.
Now, the place was mostly barren, the dungeon given a wide periter so no human could enter again.
Ning could see that there was nearly a kiloter of radius around the dungeon. It looked like it had gotten worse after the dungeon had turned to an SS-ranked dungeon.
They all arrived outside the dungeon gate and Ning got ready to enter. He stood in front of it with everyone and looked towards the director.
"I do not know how long this will take . It is supposed to take a very long, so you might have to wait a while. I suggest you go back and have others tell you when we are out," Ning told him.
The director nodded. "I will leave after you are all in," he said.
"Alright, let's go," Ning said and walked through the gate with all 3 of them.
He, Ely, Blue, Night, and Sorlus arrived in an entirely new place. Saphandra flew out of Sorlus' clothes which she had been hiding inside this entire ti and looked around her.
"What the hell is this place?" she asked.
They arrived in a dark place with a dark fog covering everything, not even letting them see anything. The black fog visually impaired every single one of them there, including Ning.
"I… can't see anything," Blue said. "Night, is this you?"
"No, not ," Night said. His divine sense spread from him and covered a massive area, only to be surprised that he couldn't find anything.
"There's nothing here," Ely said in surprise as well. Even she couldn't see anything but flat land with her god-like senses.
Sorlus frowned a little. "Master… I sense evil," he said.
Ning nodded. This much darkness, especially this thick and black fog, it was definitely from so dark magic that had been used in this place.
"What exactly is going on here?" Saphandra asked. "Can you guys even see any monsters to fight?"
"No," Night said. "There is nothing to fight."
"Was Sorlus' dungeon like this too?" Ely asked Ning.
"No, this is different," Ning said. "But, I do believe I know what's going on. If my theory is correct, we will find our foe not far from us."
