Chapter 208: Chance Encounter

Heading to Holy Grail Mountain, the three small teams tasked with the Relic mission were all vetted through combat selection,

each possessing considerable strength and expected to slay the pathogens in the mountains to reach the Peak; after all, exploring the relics of the Old World was the focus of the mission.

However, according to the messages sent back by the Watcher, only two teams headed for the Old World.

One was Yi Chen's team, and the other was the team choosing to face Black Pus Disease, led by the female captain, Norma Kopet.

The third team, which chose to follow the mountaineering route known as "Septicemia"—that is, White Robe Iscarion Lottsen's team—had not reached the passage entrance, nor had the Watcher ever seen them.

This team had completely disappeared within Holy Grail Mountain,

Considering Lottsen was of the Magic Association, valued for his mastery of rare ancient magic, his strength was substantial; he should not have gotten lost in the mountains.
