MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master

Chapter 552 The secret of the ancient ruins

Rudra was studying the mysterious orb which was supposed to be the key to some ancient ruins for the last few hours as he felt as if all the answers he needed about the orb were already in his brain , however they were covered behind a thin layer of haze that Rudra just could not see through.

The orb had the words " On the night of the blue moon , purple fog will cover the land as the power of the ancient shall not be restrained ". Inscribed on it , which was very close to a legend that Rudra had heard about in his past life.

Rudra was sure that the part where there was blue moon that released purple fog was very close to the legend of Purplehaze city , however Rudra had spent two of his entire lives in Purplehaze city hence he found the possibility that the city was built on ancient ruins to be bleak.

However he could hazily remember the legend about the ancient race of Harappans the progenitors of the nothern continent , who were the indigenous people of the land before the era of kingdoms.

These Harappans beleived in the concept of life after death , hence they buried themselves in specially made coffins with essential materials for the afterlife.

However to preserve the integrity of their dead body and to prevent decay , they were said to install ontop of their tombs a bluemoon crystal , which was said to have powers that countered decay and preserved life properties.

However bluemoon crystals were a myth of the past , as the last bluemoon crystal reported to be found was a thumb sized piece that dorns the crown of emperor Cervantez found during the reign of the first emperor of Hazelgroove empire.

The crown of Hazelgroove was hence a mythical item as it gave the wearer anti-aging properties and improved body constitution undoubtedly one of the most precious treasures of the ancient world.

While the blue moon crystal worked perfectly fine all year round , it was rumored to have special powers during the rare blue moon nights , where the moon was covered in a bluish hue.

Occuring only once in a century , it was noticed that blue moon nights were always accompanied by the mysterious Purplehaze spreading throughout the city.

Although bits and pieces , the orb seemed to indicate about some ancient civilization and mentioned blue moon , hence Rudra made his best possible theory in linking the two.

No ordinary man could have deciphered even a word of this orb as the context needed to understand it needed extensive knowledge about the history of Omega , which only nerd players like Rudra who spent their leisure hours learning more about the background of the game inside the royal library could understand.

However Rudra still felt as if he was missing one piece of the puzzle as he tried to rack his brains about the orb.

" ughhh , think brain think ". Rudra said as he pressed his forehead , it was one of those moments where he was sure that he knew the answer however it would just not manifest itself in his brain .

However then suddenly it clicked him. The odd event that happened in his past life!

After 3 years as the managing guild of Purplehaze city , demolitionboys were kicked out for poor management by the assessment done by the government. Replacing them was the Azure Flower guild led by pinklotus Yua.

However two and a half years into their management an incident occured where an external guild from the Nineclouds kingdom approached the Azure Flower guild over cooperation of a secret mission!

The timeline perfectly coincided with Rudra's current timeline where during the same timeframe the seventh auction was held !

Rudra remembered how thousands of guild members of an unknown guild in Nineclouds kingdom had entered Purplehaze city and seemingly disappeared overnight , which felt odd considering there was no teleportation array inside the city at that time.

It was only a wild assumption , but Rudra's hunch told him the ruins were undoubtedly under his very feer under Purplehaze city , with bluemoon crystal potentially involved this could become the greatest accomplishment of his career should he actually find the tombs of the ancient.

( Meanwhile in the dungeon )

Jhonny explained his plan to the group , as they looked at Jhonny as if he was a hero preparing to sacrifice himself for the cause.

Jhonny had decided to taunt the tree by shouting best tree insults and poaching all of its attention to himself while SMG , Neatwit and Karna could charge in taking advantage of the distraction with SMG and Neatwit being the guards to ensure that Karna managed to land an attack on the trunk.

The tree focussing on the four of them was already difficult for everyone , as bringing the tree's undivided attention to oneself was basically suicide.

Nonetheless sucking in a deep breath Jhonny shouted " OYEEEE ROTTEN FERN TREE , Your mama tree was soo fat even cows mooed when they peed on her branches ! ".

Jhonny shouted at the tree , who looked at Jhonny with an expression as if it did not think it was an insult at all . Apparently within the tree community being fat was a compliment while cows loving them and watering them was also beneficial.

Jhonnys luck was trash , the insult that he prepared became a compliment , however his luck was soo bad that the compliment made the tree more stunned than the insult.

It sent a lazy attack towards Jhonny as if blushing because of the compliment , which now made Jhonny have a complicated expression as he seriously questioned life itself.

However he had served his purpose , the distraction allowed the trio to move at blistering pace towards the tree's trunk , as by the time the tree noticed and groaned , all its incoming resistance and attacks were blocked by Neatwit and SMG , giving Karna a chance for a clean shot!
