"Does anyone see the portal to the next zone?" he asked, turning around to face the rest of the party.
But shaking heads was his only response.
Activating Sky Steps, Astaroth took to the skies, trying to locate the portal. They could hardly proceed forward if they couldn't get to the next zone.
From up there, he stretched out his magical senses again, trying to cover more ground than his eyes could. And he quickly spotted a hotspot of concentrated mana, not too far from them.
But something strange made him frown.
It was right under them.
Using only his mana senses, he could feel a swirl of natural mana, right under the arena grounds. But he couldn't see a way to it.
Astaroth skipped his way back down to the ground, still frowning.
"What's with the strange look?" Phoenix asked him.
Astaroth pointed to the ground.
Phoenix followed his finger, unsure what he was trying to communicate with her.
