Monster Integration



I only looked at Jon for a long before I focused on the Earth Sovereign that appeared in front of us.

She seemed to always be there and only now; I had noticed her.

I seemed to be one of the first people to notice her. It took a while for others to notice and soon, we all are staring at her. Some are in fear and reverence, while a minority is in lust.

They are quite daring to have such an emotion for the Earth Sovereign.

She is a beautiful woman, I don't know her race exactly, but she had smooth brown skin. Silvery curved horns and a longer than normal green tail, with a pearly sharp end.

She is wearing a very provocative red dress, which is leaving little to the imagination.

The Earth Sovereign is very attractive, but I looked at her with a gaze of fear. She is powerful, so much so that a slight whisper of her could crush me to pieces.

"I am sure many of you are having doubts seeing your surroundings," she said in a melodic voice.

"Let me clear them for you. You are going into the ruin and the entrance of the ruin is deep in the mine," she said, and a lot of people heaved a sigh of relief, including me.

I would have lost my mind. If I had been forced to mind.

In these past few months, I have been doing things I don't want to, and I have got tired of that. This ruin would be my chance and I will use every moment of it to get out of the clutches of the organization.

"Now follow me," she said and moved toward the huge tunnel, while her energy spread around us.

We begin to move, and our speed is fast, so fast that I couldn't see anything but the blur. Even Sovereigns couldn't see much with the speed we are moving.

It is the power of Earth Sovereign; she is taking thousands of us at an incredible speed.

We are going very deep. It had been a minute already, and we were going down into the mine. From the map forming in my mind, I know we are not circling around, but actually going deeper.

Finally, after one minute and twelve seconds. We stopped in another huge cavern.

Hun

Unlike the last one, this one is artificial and, seeing what is happening in it, I became surprised.

There is a huge white marble gate at the end, with a beautiful elaborate design, and people are entering inside it. 

People with badges of the organization on their chest.

Of course, they will send their own people totally, depending on the freelance mercenaries and prisoners would be totally idiotic.

While they couldn't send many people because of the risk; sending a few thousand wouldn't be much of a challenge for an organization with millions of members.

I don't know how many people they have sent. As currently, there are only a few hundred in front of the gate and they are rapidly moving into the gate.

They had intentionally brought it here when the numbers of this low. So, when we will be careful with the members of the organization inside, as we don't know how many of them had entered inside.

Hun!

Soon, all of them had entered inside, when a surprising thing happened.

Three Earth Sovereigns materialized, and they entered inside. Seeing that the expressions of those watching had changed suddenly. Some shuddered in fear visibly.

It is clear this is an Earth Sovereign ruin. Most mercenaries signed it up, thinking it was a Sovereign Ruin.

It had instantly made things far more dangerous that I wanted to run away, but there was no running away. Even the mercenary who signed up on their own will understand that.

"You all have to two targets. First to finish the map and second is to find the exit," she said, delivering the second bad news.

There is no fixed exit; it had instantly increased the difficulty by many times. As we will have to find the location of this gate, which is sending us into the ruin.

It will not be easy, and it is not surprising to most people since it is a virgin ruin.

Though, my target differs from others. I will search for the different exits. While they had said, they will release me after coming out, I am not idiot enough to believe.

Seeing me useful, they will find a way to keep me with them. Using love or threat, whatever works.

"Now everyone enters the gate, one by one," said the Earth Sovereign, and pushed us toward the gate.

"What about our bands?" asked one Sovereign and the Earth Sovereign turned toward the woman with a bright smile. "We will take them out after you have returned from the ruin," she said with a sweet smile.

Immediately, the expressions of thousands of people become worse. 

It is clear; the organization intends to keep us in the bind, till we come out. These are one group of nasty people, but we could do nothing against them.  The sourcᴇ of this content is Noᴠel Fɪre.net - ɴovᴇlbin

"Kalgor will keep its promise. We will not only remove the bands, as you come out but will also let you keep 50% of things you have found in the ruin," added the Earth Sovereign, seeing the expressions on people's faces.

The statement made a lot of people relieved. Until now, there wasn't clarity on the distribution of the resources.

50% is more than what the organization usually lets the non-members keep. The average is around 60%.

Though, like always, they will be having the first choice of selecting the resources. The organizations would never compromise on this right; it is what keeps treasuries full of rare and precious resources.

Finally, the first person went through the gate, and another right after.

Thousands of people begin to enter the gate by the minute. Many of them understand, seeing the level of the ruin, they might not be able to return from it.

Most Primary-III might die within a day, within an hour, if the environment inside it is too dangerous.

Thankfully, the lowest level of person here is Mid-Primary-III, sovereign and those are in the minority. Most of the people here are Peak-Primary- III.

They are the ones who take the most risks. As they had tried all the safe ways to make a breakthrough in the Sovereign class and now want to go to a dangerous place to achieve it.

Sovereign is a completely different level. It brings power and prestige, separate from the common.

Many people are willing to pay any price to reach that level.

Hun!

Soon it was my number to enter the gate. As I moved toward it, I noticed one thing about the white marble gate.

It is an artifact, not part of the ruins, as I had thought it to be. If I am right, they have used this artifact to widen and stabilize whatever way they have found in the ruin.

I would love to get my hands on it. There are many things I could learn from it, but seeing its power, it is not something I could get my hands on with the strength I have.
