Chapter 66 - 65: “Consciousness Darkness” and “Abandoned Mine Cave” (Seeking Chase Reading)
This its identical?
Milton Cheney carefully compared once again.
Then, he realized, it wasnt identical, there were some slight differences.
The mysterious symbol in the middle of the Spatial Key has four petals, while the mysterious symbol in the middle of this sacrificial-like architecture has six petals.
What does this represent?
Milton realized that he was struggling to contain his curiosity.
It was as if by instinct that he took out twelve magic stones from the Spatial Key and then placed them on the Sacred Altar in sequence.
The next moment, a bright light illuminated the entire altar.
A beam of light enveloped Miltons body, and his consciousness instantly plunged into darkness.
If anyone were here, they would not be able to stop themselves from exclaiming.
Because at this moment, this space is completely empty!
Milton, along with the Sacred Altar, vanished.
Silence and darkness engulfed this place.
Suffocating, lack of oxygen.
This feeling was somewhat similar to when Milton first traversed into this world.
Despite the discomfort, Milton forced his eyes open.
Phew-
After opening his eyes, Milton breathed deeply.
Only after his body had relaxed a bit did he start observing his surroundings.
But everything around seemed a little blurred as if he was experiencing the high degree of myopia he had in his previous life. It seemed as though there was shadowing in his vision.
Where am I?
Milton closed his eyes and massaged his temples.
When he opened his eyes again, the shadowing slowly disappeared.
The surroundings gradually came into Miltons view.
Stone, stone, and still stone.
The multitude of stones left Milton unable to determine his location. Memories of the past gradually surfaced, helping Milton understand what had happened.
He recalled that he had been at a Sacred Altar, then for some reason he placed the magic stones on the tray of the altar, and the next moment he lost consciousness.
When he regained consciousness, it was now.
Milton, who had just recovered, realized something was off.
What was I doing then? I was so eager to place the magic stones into those trays.
Although he would be curious about unknown things, his curiosity wouldnt be that intense.
Especially towards the unknown, even if Milton was very curious, he would restrain himself.
He was a very cautious person, so it was impossible for him to recklessly place the magic stones on the tray.
But at that time, he was like a possessed man, with only one thought in his mind: to place the magic stones into the tray before him.
This was absolutely abnormal, Milton was certain that he would not normally act that way.
So, obviously, either he was under some kind of spell at that time or affected by something.
Not thinking further, thinking more would be of no use, Miltons head was now throbbing with pain.
Now, he just wanted to figure out where he was. As for what happened at that time, Milton will definitely figure it out when he has time.
The next moment, Milton began to use the meditation technique.
He wanted to alleviate his headache, while also energizing himself, but as soon as he started to meditate, Miltons pupils constricted slightly.
How is that possible?
He found that the speed of his meditation had increased at least threefold, this feeling was extremely obvious.
The next moment, a transparent light screen appeared in front of Milton.
[Meditation Technique: Black Tower Meditation Technique (Skilled
Leve125/800)]
The meditation technique was still at the skilled level, unchanged.
If its not the advancement of the meditation technique, then what caused the doubling of meditation speed?
Milton Cheney suddenly contemplated a rumour, but instinct in his brain told him it was impossible.
That is, the majority of wizards choose to stay at the Wizard Continent because cultivating meditation techniques on the Wizard Continent might be faster than on Subcontinent.
Am I on the Wizard Continent?
Milton Cheney muttered to himself, somewhat disbelieving.
However, apart from this explanation, it seemed that nothing else could account for his doubled cultivation speed at the moment.
Milton Cheney, enduring the headache, continues to meditate.
Time passed, the throbbing slowly receded, and Milton, consumed by his twisting emotions, had no willingness to continue his meditation.
If he was indeed on the Wizard Continent now, then it would be difficult to return to the Subcontinent.
You must know that in the last simulation, none of the fifteen offspring he sent out to sea returned.
Milton Cheney got up and moved a little. He realized he felt somewhat exhausted, but his strength had not faded.
The cultivation of a Grand Knight gave him a bit more confidence in this unfamiliar place.
Moving around, Milton Cheney found himself in what appeared to be a mining cave.
However, apart from him, there was no one else here.
After walking for a while, Milton saw a glimmer of light in distance.
The cave entrance was right in front of him. Milton quickened his pace, and walked out of the cave.
As soon as he had stepped outside the entrance, even before Milton Cheney got a close look at the surroundings, he saw a middle-aged man appear before him.
This middle-aged man with a stern face and knitted brows, looked displeased as he glanced at Milton emerging from the cave.
Whats your situation? Why are you coming out of an abandoned tunnel? Were you sleeping in there, slacking off?
Jacob was blunt with his tone, without any need of niceties.
At that moment, his mood was terrible. Taking over his shift, he was greeted by a slacker.
Jacob not allowed to slack off, yet a miner dares to. This displeased him.
Milton, fresh out of the door and still unfamiliar with the situation, was suddenly bombarded with rebukes which surprised him. However, he understood immediately.
So he adopted a humble tone: Lord, I had a terrible headache today, so I took a short rest in the cave.
You bloody slacker, arguing your headache is just your excuse to slack off.
Miltons words did not improve Jacobs demeanor, but rather aggravated his displeasure.
Jacob pulled out a whip, full of thorns, ready to lash Milton.
A cold flash crossed Miltons eyes. In this moment, he had already taken into account the surrounding environment.
Just like he suspected, this place was a large mine site.
He also figured out from the middle-aged mans words that the place where he woke up was an abandoned mine within the mining site.
There were several mines around and only the middle-aged man was outside the mines.
So there was nothing to discuss.
Milton caught Jacobs wrist as he prepared to whip, and with a hard squeeze, the audible sound of cracking bones filled the air.
Seeing Jacob was about to scream, Milton immediately covered his mouth. Now, I will ask, you will answer. If you scream, I will crush your throat!
Milton Cheney laid Jacob down, staring at him with indifferent eyes, his voice radiating a chilling murderous intent.bender
Jacob could only nod quickly.
Milton removed his hand from over his mouth. Whats your name? he asked.
Lord, I am Jacob Beckman Sylanlin Moreiss Te
Stop!
Where is this place?
Hearing the question, Jacobs complexion changed abruptly: Youre not from the mining district, you are
But before he could finish his sentence, his other wrist was crushed, and his attempt at screaming was promptly halted by Miltons hand. Cold sweat rolled down his forehead.
Dont try to be smart! Any more nonsense and I will twist off your neck!
Jacob nodded hastily, even more vigorously than before..
