Musashi Noboru was dazed when he saw two cars coming out of the plane.
The two subcars drifted away from him in the direction of the dungeon gate.
"Hahaha..." Suddenly, a loud laugh escaped his mouth. Musashi Noboru laughed hard, not caring about his surroundings.
"He's really interesting. He's really my buddy! He brings a car to go on a picnic with his family, and his destination is a place with great potential to be a battlefield!"

Inside the car
Sun Zhou Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Even his master said this, which meant that this Purple Mountain Tribe was truly dangerous.
"We just found them yesterday, so how do you know about this Purple Mountain Tribe... No, how do you know that they are called the Purple Mountain Tribe and not some other random tribe?"
Elazaro Tania opened her mouth and asked the thing that made her curious. She was pretty sharp to notice that.
Before Heero could answer, Tania continued, "Are you also from the dungeon?"
As soon as this question came out of her mouth, the atmosphere in the car fell completely silent.
Even Hong Yu and Han Ying were looking at Heero. They still did not know Heero's background, like where he came from. His past, Heero never told them anything about it.
The Duo Sisters did not ask either. It did not matter what his past was, the current Heero was their husband.
But that did not mean that they were not curious about Heero's past. They wanted to know, but Heero was so reluctant to tell them about it. He only promised to tell them later, one day.
"Hmm... You seem to be interested in my background?" Heero looked at Tania.
The girl flinched and slowly she leaned back and looked out, pretending to look at the scenery outside.
Thanks to her, the atmosphere in the car was unusually quiet. She felt a heated look from behind, but she pretended not to notice it.
Hong Yu and Han Ying did not know much about the dungeon. Therefore, they did not have the right topic that could melt the awkwardness in the car.
After a few minutes, Sun Zhou Yi finally broke the silence.
"Master, we have to walk from here. The dungeon gate is smaller than the car..."
"Wait! I will take care of it!" Heero went out. Even though he said to wait, Sun Zhou Yi still followed his master.
"What is he going to do? The car does not fit through the gate..."
Elazaro Tania stopped in the middle when she noticed that the dungeon gate had enlarged. The gate that floated in the air was rooted in the ground. It became eight meters wide and ten meters high.
"You better watch your mouth! If you continue to investigate him, don't blame me for using force later," Kang Seo-Yeon leaned forward and spoke to Tania in a low voice.
A warning! She warned the girl not to be a busybody.
Elazaro wanted to talk back to her. It was not her style to be pressured by another woman. But then she felt four pairs of eyes staring at her. Not only Kang Seo-Yeon but also the other three women sent the same warning.
Their looks basically told her not to bother her husband.
She swallowed back the words on the tip of her tongue. She admitted defeat.
"All right, I am sorry! I was not investigating him, I was just curious. Not just me, I think people are curious about him."
"An unknown man who appeared out of nowhere and became the Chief Hero Instructor. Who isn't curious about him? I don't have any hidden motives or bad intentions toward him. It was just curiosity!"
"Curiosity killed the cat, be careful!" Kang Seo-Yeon sent her last warning and leaned back in her seat.
It was a naked threat and Elazaro Tania did not like it.
"Hoo... A mere gold-class hero dares to threaten me. You..." Before Tania could finish her words, a frosty voice reached her ears.
"You can try, but be prepared to lose your life!"
Elazaro Tania's body shivered on its own. Without her knowledge, the situation had escalated to this point.
"There's no need to kill each other, we are friends after all" Han Ying soothed the soon-to-be conflict.
"Right~ Right~ We are friends. There's no need to fight. Besides, I'm not curious anymore, let's have a friendly talk instead," Elazaro Tania nodded her head hastily.
Her right hand also moved to hold Han Ying. She held the hand tightly, expressing her gratitude.
Tsk, the people around him are very scary... I have to keep a distance from him, don't get close to him, or these crazy women would really kill me...
When Heero got back to the car, he noticed the unusual atmosphere inside. He scanned the girls in the backseat.
Han Ying smiled gently at him, while Elazaro Tania smiled warmly. He sensed something but did not know what it was.
Heero shook his head and sat down. As for Sun Zhou Yi, he dutifully did his job and drove the car into the dungeon. Just like that, the first car on Earth entered the dungeon.

It was night inside the dungeon.
Heero looked at Sun Zhou Yi, "You didn't tell me about this!"
"Huh!? I did not!?" Sun Zhou Yi remembered the report he had written for his master.
In fact, he had overlooked the time difference because he had attached great importance to other things, such as the abandoned city and the Purple Mountain.
"Tsk, you ruined my plan for a picnic," Heero sulked like a little child and turned away from Sun Zhou Yi.
He had thought a lot about this picnic when he received the report about Purple Mountain. He wanted to spend quality time with his family on this outing, but now the plan changed.
"Luckily, this is Purple Mountain..."
After a few minutes of driving, the sight of Purple Mountain came into view. The girls gasped in surprise, and even Sun Zhou Yi's jaw dropped at the sight.
The Purple Mountain was glowing purple under the moonlight. It was a spectacular sight. The glowing mountainous area looked extremely beautiful.
"Let's go there, we can spend the night there!" Heero pointed to a high place where they could get a clear view of the Purple Mountain.
"But didn't you come here to talk to the people in the Purple Mountain?" Even though he asked that, he still steered the car in the direction Heero pointed.
"It can wait!
Besides, visiting the Purple Mountain at this time would make us look suspicious. Let's rest and enjoy the view for now!" Heero waved his hand.
The other girls, including Elazaro Tania, nodded their heads in agreement.
When they reached the place Heero pointed to, they could see several mountains glowing purple.
Miao Miao, Myung-Hee, Lan Lan and Moira ran to the edge as soon as they got out of the car. They enjoyed the magnificent view that lay before them.
Heero followed them, of course. Looking at his daughter's happy face, Heero thought, 'I will forgive Sun Zhou Yi this time...'
As for the girls, they were getting ready for the barbecue. They prepared the grill and the ingredients.
Meanwhile, Heero and the kids set up the tents and the fire. He was satisfied with everything, but unfortunately, the happy time did not last long.
Right after he had put up the last tent, uninvited guests approached. Not one, but many.
Heero looked in the direction the uninvited guests came from, "Tsk, I forgot about them! The annoying nocturnal beasts that haunted this place..."
