After half an hour of traveling they finally arrives at the Collos area and there a few guards is waiting for them
"Hello ma'am and your little children we will lead the way to your place so that you can all rest" the first guard said and starts to walk inside the Collos area leading the way
Soon they arrive at a luxurious building that easily baffles them with amazement
"This is magnificent it's made with precise work and the materials used is a high quality one I assume" Caleb said while still looking at the beauty of the building
"Indeed this is made with the help of 10 engineers and a thousand of workers working together and each and every of them are the best" the guard said proudly
Caleb and Alice just smiles at the guard before going inside to see what's inside and there they see a chandelier as their lights and the room is big enough to fit 5 smaller room and the living room has 2 sofas to seat on and 2 Television to watch and the walls filled with unique arts while the kitchen is full of high quality cooking equipments, appliances, and utensils that will help make cooking easier for anyone and in the dining room the lights is a chandelier, the chairs being luxurious and a beautiful table also a fridge at the corner that has different foods inside, lastly the bathroom has a bathtub, sink, toilet, shower, luxurious mirror with unique design, towel bar and a storage cabinet filled with hygiene products
"It has so many things i can't believe that this will be our room when back then we will only live normally with normal things" Alice said
"Luck is unpredictable and im sure you two have a bright future even when the Grand countdown hasn't begun" the guards said
"The Grand countdown? Oh right that appeared some time ago but what does it really mean?" Caleb asks but the guard just shakes his head
"We don't really know ourselves since it has only been a few days since that appeared but currently the entire Collos area's theory is that it's countdown is for a destruction of something and it might be our world but it's not sure so don't worry about it too much" the guard said before finally leaving
"Now that he had said it, the Grand countdown might really be referring to a destruction of our world but why did the towers appeared? Could it be that there's a connection between the Grand countdown and the towers? If so then the towers might be the key to stop the destruction of the world if the Grand countdown is really referring to the destruction of Earth" Caleb thought deeply as even if it is not the case there's still a countdown that's going on
He then goes to one of the rooms and began thinking to what's the meaning of the Grand countdown but soon he decides to try creating a skill that will help him enhance his thinking ability
Caleb starts to use his skill Creation and soon he's body starts to glow and after a few moments he finally acquires a skill
"You have acquire the skill: Level 1: Thinking acceleration
Caleb immediately uses the skill and this greatly improves his thinking speed allowing him to easily think of a possibility in seconds but after a few minutes of thinking he fails to get close to the reason of the Grand countdown
"I guess i will need to find it out someday"
He then decides to go out and wonder around the Collos area so he went outside and right after he got out of the building someone calls him
"Hey!" A young man with a blonde hair shouted at Caleb
Caleb turns to look at the young man and then the man goes towards Caleb
"Are you new here? If yes then i can help you know the places here" he said
"That would be great" Caleb said
While walking the young man starts to explain the rules of the Collos area and the important details of how the Collos area works and judge its people
"The Collos area has quite a few rules and that is you cannot go outside unless you're ordered to our approved by the higher ups and that's not all there's a hierarchy here too starting from the first two building is the lowest at hierarchy first rank is its people called there are considered barely talented enough to enter while the second rank is the people that are just right in talents while the other ranks are considered way more talented and im at the fourth rank but that wouldn't be something significant to you since you're at the highest rank" he explained
"So im at the highest rank, well that's unexpected" Caleb said in his mind
The young man then leads Caleb to the very center of the Collos area and there Caleb sees the huge cafeteria having hundreds of people eating inside
"This is the Collos Cafeteria, every type of food you want can be ordered here which is just wonderful and the chefs in here are also top notch" the man said
"Well if that's true then it's just fair since only very talented people are allowed to enter the Collos area" Caleb said
"By the way what's your name?" The young man asks Caleb
"Caleb" Caleb answers
"Oh although it's late nice to meet you, im Dex Augustus so what's your surname since you haven't told it" He said
"It's williams" Caleb said
Soon Dex starts to show Caleb the places around more but nothing else catches Caleb's attention so after an hour he thanks dex before going back to the building they live
And on the way he came across a beautiful young girl that rivals every girls he have seen ever
"What a beauty" Caleb mumbles
The young girl then goes to the building where Caleb is staying which surprises Caleb but not because it's where she lives but because he has the same at the same hierarchy as the girl since he thought that there will be a someplace that will be held secret unless to the real geniuses
