*Roar!*
Clovis gritted his teeth and raised his sword, blocking the beast's teeth. However, the momentum still pushed him down.
He hurriedly kicked the beast up in the air. Kanaria didn't miss a beat and shot this beast while Clovis rolled to the side.
That was right. He was still in the middle of a battle. While the markings were unexpected and piqued his interest greatly, he better end this fight first.
'I guess I inherited my grandfather's curiosity.' Clovis thought while standing back up. He couldn't help but recall the time when his grandfather found something new and interesting. He would spend hours if not days just thinking about it.
But he indeed had endangered himself because of it and didn't plan to waste this lesson.
As soon as he regained his composure, he charged at the beasts once again, killing every single beast that came toward them. There were multiple Tier 2 beasts, but luckily, they didn't come at the same time.
In total, Clovis killed more than a hundred beasts nonstop, not counting the beasts that Kanaria defeated.
On the entrance, Jay killed a similar amount. There were simply too many corpses at the entrance that Jay had no choice but to toss them outside just to make some space. Melody was the one supporting him, telling him the timing and other things.
The fight lasted for thirty minutes before they killed all these beasts.
Even Jay and Clovis were exhausted after fighting so many beasts because the beasts were much stronger than normal.
However, Jay took a rest after Melody declared all the beasts had been killed, while Clovis actually ignored his fatigue and went straight to the wall where he found the markings earlier.
"Clovis? Did you find something? It wasn't like you to be distracted earlier." Kanaria asked while crossing her arms, reminding him that one mistake might kill him.
Clovis didn't reply to him as his focus remained on the markings. He even grabbed his device and took a photo of the markings.@@@@
"This is..." Kanaria came to him and found the symbols. "What are these?"
"Alright." Melody followed the instruction and tried to use her AI to scan the markings. After a minute, she couldn't help but shake her head. "Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything in the database."
"I guess it's useless." Kanaria looked down. "What if the informant made this so that he could get more money by selling this piece of information?"
"That is indeed possible. That's also the reason why this place is not even famous." Melody nodded. If this place contained the information about the civilization that once existed in this place, the military would have swept in.
Kanaria let out a long sigh before saying, "I guess it's useless..."
All of a sudden, Clovis's voice echoed. "Guys. Take a look at this."
Both of them raised their heads, not knowing what Clovis wanted them to see.
They walked to Clovis, wondering what he had found.
Clovis somehow turned his flashlight off and stopped them. "Melody. Let me borrow your flashlight."
"Here you go."
Clovis pointed the flashlight downward before turning it on.
They couldn't help but lower their vision and suddenly open their eyes wide. They originally thought that this was a magma vent, but there was actually a big cave located at the end of the tunnel.
The cave was located about fifty meters beneath the tunnel. A natural cave alone wasn't enough to surprise them. It was what was inside the natural cave that dumbfounded them.
There were actually a few huts inside made of wood and grass. Most of them had been ruined by the beasts, but two of them were still intact.
It appeared that all the beasts that fought against them came from this place. They could even see the steep staircases that led them down.
"What the hell is this?" Kanaria gasped.
