Alex put off the notification in the back of his mind and walked deeper into the cave.
The cave was three kilometres long and there were only two Epic ranks guarding it. Alex searched every nook and cranny before reaching the end.
His weariness was for naught as he found no one hiding in the shadows and darkness of the cave waiting to attack him.
At the end of the cave, a stone Steele appeared out of thin air which had many soul-enchanting cravings on it marked in blood.
Alex had already got a hold of the thing, the Steele was the gateway to the other side. Even if someone found it, they couldn't enter it easily.
Alex took a deep breath.
He finally got the reason for Hurt's disappearance.
"Hurt may have gone inside and might have sacrificed his life. Don't worry grandpa, I will make a big grave for you." Alex spoke with gratitude and stepped forward.
"Ouch!"
