****/ Aegis Council Room:
The room has been prepared for the new organization, but I have been waiting for them for thirty minutes but no one has shown themselves in this room.
"Where are these children?" I sighed, I sat between the chairs with a long table in the middle, I couldn't hear anything from them.
Shouldn't they be out of the dungeon already? It's been nine hours but they haven't come out yet? or because they were an hour late when Rucas didn't come along?
I think soon they will...
"Warning!!!" The sound of a siren followed by a warning sound from someone, a sound that pierced the ears in the silence of this new room, the sound echoed deeply in here, what happened?
"Warning!!! Gate rank B has changed to Abyssal Gate!!! First team and Professor please come to the scene."
The sound that made many people panic in this quiet afternoon, disturbed the students' rest before they continued their evening classes.
I thought something had happened, I stood up and immediately walked out of this room, as far as I remember no other gate appeared apart from the one used by the junior team to carry out raids.
Don't tell me they are trapped in the Abyssal Gate? That's why they didn't come to the opening meeting of this new organization?
****/ Wein Grimveil's POV :
It was so cold, the snowy atmosphere made us all shiver, even our armor couldn't withstand it, with the strong wind blowing up making the snow fly everywhere.
"Where was the dragon just now?" Sherlyn asked.
"He won't follow us to the lowlands." Professor Katherine said, we are all here building a campfire to warm ourselves.
With one casualty from our team, after entering the Abyssal Realm we were initially intercepted by Wyverns, but because the weather was very cold we used mana to warm ourselves, so we all fled towards the lowlands.
The Abyssal Realm consists of many extreme weather, ranging from very cold snow, very hot deserts, or tropical rainforests with endless monsters, but we get cold snow where there will not be many species of monsters because there are not many monsters that exist. Cansurvive in this cold weather.
"Isn't this the snow bear area?" Tiffanie asked, she looked shivering, with her arms crossed in front of her.
We were all sitting in front of the campfire, but this would have no results, because to get out of the Abyssal Gate you had to kill the boss in this Dungeon.
However, the Snow Wyvern is not the boss, because it doesn't seem to be able to attack well, I think the boss here is either the Ice Elves or the Yeti.
Professor Katherine explains why we have to take shelter in this forest with lots of pine trees because the only predators there are are polar bears which are not as smart as Yetis or even Ice Elves.
I once entered a low-level Abyssal Gate, where I was in a tropical rain forest where it always rained all the time, there the boss was only Kraosaka the Great Snake, whereas here the Boss would definitely be smarter than the snake.
"I think something is stalking us." Alain stood up after feeling that, with his adapted Leopard starting to roar as if he felt the presence of a creature with extraordinary power.
"EVERYONE GET READY!!!" I took out my sword along with the others, with the sound of iron splashing as the weapons were taken out of their sheaths.
Together with the armor that took a stance in the cold stiffness of the snow, I just felt it, a medium aura that was stalking us all.
They were holding guns, we all started to turn towards the center and made a circle protecting the campfire, but with a little gap between us because we didn't want to get too close to the hot campfire.
The gap made them look closer, I felt the aura was close but still far away, I think this was just the reconnaissance team, because they couldn't possibly attack directly.
Something sharp broke the air, streaking quickly through the sky with an extremely sharp tip, piercing the air sharply. "FWhip!!!" I caught the figure that penetrated the air, but my hand felt frozen, it was an ice arrow that made my hand freeze when held.
"Krrraakk!!!" I broke the ice arrow, making the ice in my hand start to disappear because it broke with its parent.
"Ice Elves!!!" Loraine shouted loudly, Kylo raised his shield and prepared for the next attack, the others started to stand by so they wouldn't be attacked.
Ice Elves rarely come into other creatures' territory, I think this time it was because they felt the strong energy we were emitting was disturbing them.
Ice Elves will attack them from afar, to indicate the team that was attacked first. If someone manages to catch or even fend them off, they will call their leader to attack us.
I was still looking for where the ice elves were, when I looked to the right and left I finally found people in thick clothes with dark blue skin, they were standing on high tree branches, making it difficult to see, I think it was scout them, where they haven't beenattacked us.
If it was like this it would be difficult, they apparently did not enter polar bear territory, but we were the ones who turned out to be too far away in the territory itself, because they were very far away when they shot me.
"Everything! The road enters the forest!" Professor Katherine said, the bonfire was alive and then we broke up the formation, walking in two rows to make it neater, our steps were a little faster.
"Wait, we will meet polar bears then." Tiffanie muttered, she stopped the journey, some agreed but there were also those who chose to remain silent.
Alain, who was annoyed by the sudden stop, and Tiffanie, who didn't understand what Professor Katherine was saying, Alain stepped forward between the lines, and began to contradict Tiffanie's words.
"Don't you see? When we were on the outskirts of polar bear territory, we were attacked by Ice Elves, who are smarter than polar bears." Alain exclaimed, he seemed very concerned about the situation earlier, in fact some people would not be able to see the situation and make a decision.
Professor Katherine's decision is correct, we will continue to enter polar bear territory and kill all of them, then hide in their territory so that the ice elves cannot spy on us.
In silence, he chose to remain silent and step back from the confrontation and chose to give in after it was clear that he had lost badly in theory with Alain and Professor Katherine.
We continued walking towards the main polar bear territory, our steps were not leisurely but also not rushed, we began to be alert on every side and began to pay attention to small gaps and trees far from our sight.
****/Third View, Location of Abyssal Gate at Aetheris Academy:
Academy Head Claudia had arrived at the location, the rocks that made the footing level there began to slowly disintegrate, with the wind blowing hard with every wave that came out of the gate.
The gate is red with very dark black lightning flashes, there is even an almost invisible cloud of aura rotating above the circular portal gate called the gate.
Many senior and experienced Academy attack teams came, but they couldn't do anything, only guard against a Dungeon Realm Crack or more easily called Dungeon Break.
The strength of the energy released by the Gate is equivalent to S rank, but it looks like it is still at the AA rank stage, but because there is only one S rank, the chances of those surviving are only small, or even unlikely to survive.
They have been trapped for ten hours, but cannot communicate with the outside world, the media does not yet know this, because the Aetheris Academy tried to summon Gladius in silence so that there would be no commotion outside the Academy.
"That was really terrible." — "What is S rank?" "It's amazing whether they will survive." — "Who entered the dungeon?" Those were the words thrown around by the students who gathered because of this phenomenal thing.
They gathered together and didn't cross the barrier there, because the assault team and several city officials came for this, they also put up a mana shield to prevent a dungeon realm crack from happening.
The main attack team consisted of twenty people, but their strength was no more than the Aegis Council, so if the Aegis Council members died inside this Abyssal gate it would be a difficult thing for Academy Head Claudia.
Academy Head Claudia, she just looked at that in despair, like she was thinking about what should I do, why did I give that permission, didn't Gladius already do the test? he stood with his face as blank as the emptiness of outer space.
The day was starting to get dark, it was approaching dusk, with the sky orange and purple which made it quite beautiful, and there were large clouds that reflected the beautiful light, making the sky feel very happy today, but humans experienced the opposite, the situation of humans was more suitablewith the sky behind him or turning the body 180° with cumulonimbus clouds that were approaching bringing a storm with a lot of capacity, also with the night sky that was starting to darken, emitting several dim stars every second.
