The retreat provided by the Centaur was quite interesting, situated at the northeastern corner of the first underground level, exactly diagonal to the Centaur Basin.

Ivan didn't mind, as it was a good opportunity to walk more and observe the Underground World.
"Noticed anything?"
"What?"
"There aren't areas like ancient battlefields in the Underground World, nor can you see Spiritual Bodies spawning; this environment is cleaner than the surface."
Days later, the group crossed from the southwestern corner to the west, and then back to the Northern Territory.
After a long period of observation, Ivan realized that the underground indeed differed from the surface; the quality of energy particles here was significantly superior.
"Maybe we just haven't encountered them, that doesn't mean they aren't there, perhaps they are hidden deeper." When he heard this, Tanaya had a different opinion.
