Haylee let out a grim sigh, expressing his frustration. The dark race may have caused chaos by targeting innocent people and small villages, but as long as he remember they were never truly strong enough to engage in a full-blown war with the other races. However, for some reason, when Odiak and James were busy constructing the shield around the planet, two divine-rank individuals emerged from the same race.
When James and a few strong individuals went to confront them, they were shocked because seemingly the dark race found a natural underground earth layer filled with extremely potent weeds brimming with mana in the middle of the dark forest.
James was tempted to take the entire layer, but the two divine-rank individuals from the dark race posed a greater threat than he had imagined. In the end, although James emerged victorious, he lost a capable individual in the fight. And, to make matters worse the precious layer was lost due to the battle fought in that place.
