" This is a huge city and didn't you say this thing was destroyed in the past, but now it is floating?"
Arthur scratched his head with wonder, not knowing what to do in this situation because his main priority was to build a portal in the ancient city and use their lost technology and resources to his advantage but looking at the huge sun disk that was floating in the sky, he didn't know what to do anymore because he didn't plan for this.
" I swear this was a ruin. I heard the rumors but it is impossible to rebuild it since the last ascended emperor disappeared along with their last glory."
Taliyah also showed a shocked face as she didn't know what was going on. As a Shurimaen native, she visited this city many times but she could have sworn that everything was alright a few months ago or a year ago. However, what she saw was so ridiculous that she even suspected herself of being in a daydream.
" I gotta take a picture of this. Clark stays next to me. Man, I wish I brought Jon here with Connor and our parents."
Lois grumbled as she handed her camera to Diana who took their pictures as she also stood with Arthur. Each of the members showed different expressions as they entered the city. The giant desolate buildings that were once filled with people were eerily empty and silent like they were waiting for their former owners.
" Be careful. Even people like us can be hurt when we face someone with divine powers."
Arthur spoke lightly while summoning his sword out as he stood in front of Diana and Vi. Zoe and Caitlyn took the rear while others were walking in the middle to defend themselves.
"Do you feel anyone near us?"
Diana2 ( aspect) said lightly, raising her sword with a cold face. She could tell something powerful was residing deep inside the city and they were living beings.
" I can't tell it accurately due to their energies but one thing is certain. There is a being that is powerful as an aspect deep inside the city. We must be careful."
Arthur spoke gently while striding deep into the city where they saw the giant disk. The mana or divine energy of the powerful entity entered their senses as each of their team members pulled out their weapons.
Clack*
" Look there is a mark of fighting happened here and there are a few corpses."
Caitlyn who had sharp eyes immediately pointed at the dead people which nauseated young Taliyah who never seen something like this. She saw corpses before but these corpses were mutilated beyond human recognition and Samira seemed to recognize their wounds as she clicked her tongue.
Even though their bodies were corroded over time, she could guess who was behind this massacre.
Arthur and Caitlyn were able to capture her expression as they acted like they didn't see her because they were sure that she would tell who was the perpetrator behind this.
" Someone is approaching us. Be careful."
Arthur took a stance to defend himself, but soon he lowered his guard because he saw a woman. She was holding a giant blade that was connected and she was looking at them with wariness.
" Who the hell are you?"
She asked in Shuriman language as she scanned them. She was able to tell they weren't for her and they had no desire to fight.
" Relax, we are from Piltover and we are heading to this city for archeological purposes."
Caitlyn spoke first, trying to explain their situation while showing her gun which was a trademark of Piltover.
" Relax, sister. She is right. We aren't here for war and you seem to be in trouble."
Samira raised her hand while putting her guns back to their holsters.
" Are you from Shurima?"
Sivir asked with caution, believing they would be potentially dangerous but thankfully Samira and Taliyah nodded their heads while others showed no interest in fighting.
" So, gentleman in the back why don't you come out and greet us?"
Arthur who was silent all the time, opened his mouth as he looked at the corners of the building with a grim face. He sensed a powerful energy from him.
