Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 1695  Voidʼs First Thought

The group soon disappeared from view. At the spot Grey looked at before they were teleported away, a figure appeared. It was that of a middle-aged man, and he had a strange look on his face. ”Such a talent appeared in the world?” He muttered to himself, he paused for sometime before muttering again, ”Could that be Grey Dawson?”

Although these ancient Factions have stayed hidden for thousands of years, they were still up to date about the world and its happenings. Theyʼve heard of the genius that rocked even the Gnomes, that he was placed on their kill list. It has been a few years since the Gnomes wanted to kill Grey, yet he is still alive, growing at an unprecedented pace. This middle-aged man knew of Lucas Dawson, he has come to disturb them once or twice, and theyʼve even exchanged a few moves. Over the past hundreds of years that this middle-aged man has been guarding this place, Lucas Dawson is the only genius who has caught the attention of everyone. At that time, he was told to even try to recruit him. Lucas, however, rejected his offer. The next time he saw Lucas, he was already on the same cultivation stage as himself. They exchanged blows and he noticed that Lucas who hadnʼt been in the Half God Plane for a long time wasnʼt inferior to him who has been a Half God for thousands of years. The figure etched Greyʼs face in his head before disappearing once again. Heʼs the one whoʼs in charge of guarding this array. If there were any issues, he could destroy it and leave. Every few hundred years, the guardians are changed, and he has been here for a few hundred years now. Only two people have piqued his interest over these few hundred years, and they were the father and son duo of Lucas and Grey Dawson. He initially thought he wouldnʼt see anyone of Lucasʼ caliber again, since Lucas was even more talented than most of those from ancient Factions like the Pyro Faction. Yet some moments ago, he saw someone that could be even more outstanding than Lucas who is already the cream of the crop even for ancient Factions. ʼHehe, that place will get noisy real soon. I hope heʼs not a humble person.ʼ He thought to himself as he hid away. ….

Somewhere in the Aurora Continent. Grey and the others appeared inside an open space in what looked like a cave, which wasnʼt what they expected. They looked around and there it was, a twenty meters wide portal. Grey knew a portal led to these hidden Factions, but he didnʼt expect that theyʼd take the struggle of using a teleportation array to first get here before using the portal. He looked around and noticed that the entire cave was sealed. He couldnʼt even sense anything outside the walls. It was as if this space was created inside a mountain, and the entire mountain was sealed. ʼThereʼs no way to locate this place even if youʼre sent here through that array. Very thorough I must say.ʼ Grey thought to himself. He knew getting to these ancient Factions would be difficult, but he didnʼt expect them to be this meticulous. Ezekiel and the others led them into the portal. Their group walked behind those from the Pyro Faction. The closer they got to the portal, the more they could feel the higher density of the elemental particles in the air. Even this cave has a better elemental essence than the best place in the Pyrmond Faction which was a bit embarrassing, given their status. They walked through the portal, and a large world welcomed them. Just like most of the hidden worlds Grey has entered, he was welcomed by the wind against his face, but the wind felt different. It was as if thereʼs something in the wind that signifies that he was standing in another world. They appeared on top of a mountain, a temple-like building. Looking down from the mountain, they could see multiple buildings. Not just buildings, but there were people moving about. The times Grey has entered these hidden worlds of ancient Fractions, he was usually welcomed by depilated buildings. This time, however, was different. The buildings were standing strong, and the place was filled with life. It wasnʼt like the other places he has been to. The roars of Magical Beasts could be heard around, but unlike the previous ones where the Magical Beasts would be roaming alone, in this case, most of these Magical Beasts were mounted. A prestigious roar was heard, and Grey was familiar with a roar like that… a Dragon. Grey looked to the sky, and there it was, the majestic Dragon could be seen flying in the sky, and looking closely, he could see a slender figure seated on the Dragon. His gaze didnʼt linger, as this wasnʼt the first time he was seeing a Dragon. He looked away, keeping his gaze on the place. ʼThere are a lot of goodies here. Itʼs a shame if we dare to touch anyone weʼll be found out immediately.ʼ Voidʼs voice filled with pain resounded in Greyʼs head. The second Grey heard Voidʼs words, he almost tripped on his own feet, even though he was standing. They just got into a world that had experts from thousands of years ago, and the first thing that Void could think of was stealing treasures. ʼYou better not try anything stupid.ʼ He warned, he didnʼt forget about the bunny leader, ʼAnd you too. If you two try anything, Iʼll leave you guys here.ʼ

ʼDo you think I canʼt get out of this place?ʼ

The bunny leaderʼs mocking voice entered Greyʼs ears. He couldnʼt help but recall that he first met the bunny leader in the trial land, which he had already guessed was an ancient Faction that was destroyed after the war. The next place he found the bunny leader was also one of such hidden worlds, so in truth, the bunny leader could indeed leave this place if it wanted to.
