Bella and Mathias looked at Nial with bright smiles.

They had been worried that it would be difficult for their blind friend to return before the Teradan military camp would officially resume.

Fortunately, this was not the case, and he returned a whole day earlier.

This was more than enough time for them to provide him with all the necessary information that he required to be up to date!

And that was definitely necessary because the events that had occurred in the last five days were no less intriguing than the dungeon breakout.

Rather, the events that were about to unfold seemed to have to do with the dungeon breakouts.

It was highly likely that they were connected to each other in some way!

But instead of focusing on the news about what happened, Bella and Mathias could easily notice that Nial\'s demeanor had changed quite a bit.

The last five days had changed a lot about him which was visible just by looking at the way Nial was simply sitting on his bed.

One could say that it looked almost as if Nial was ready to risk his life and fight at any moment at that.

This was quite surprising because it took even the most experienced War Veterans quite some effort and numerous near-death experiences to end up in a condition similar to what Nial seemed to be in!

Bella understood this because she had seen such War Veterans already, which led her to take a closer look at Nial.

She sized him up over and over again. But even then, Nial still seemed to be at the 3rd Origin rank!

However, that was the only thing that seemed to have remained the same.

Faint, and almost untraceable currents of some sort of dark-colored and eerie energy revolved around Nial.

The dark energy she sensed was something Nial had already used in the past.

If she remembered correctly, she had seen him make use of it in the fight against the Lesser Titan youngling, where Bella had sensed this type of energy once again.

After the fight, this type of energy had been released from his body to do something to the Titan\'s corpse.

And afterward, his mood had plummeted because he was contemplating something.

Bella clearly recalled how worried Nial had been earlier, which was why it was the most confusing for her to see that he was unbothered by the dark energy around him.

But even if the dark energy was already quite intriguing in Bella\'s opinion, the naturally released mana fluctuations of Nial were similar.

They attracted Bella\'s interest because they swept through the entire room while rapidly absorbing mana.

Nial\'s mana fluctuations could be sensed in a large range, and if he wanted to it might even be possible for him to absorb the mana everywhere his mana fluctuations reached.

Understanding that Nial was able to replace his eyesight with the perception he received from the mana fluctuations, it was quite obvious the extent to which Nial\'s natural \'sight\' had increased.

If Bella was already astonished about the improvements Nial had undergone in mere five days, Mathias was totally baffled.

His first thought upon seeing Nial was, \'Who the hell is this guy, and what did he do to Nial?!\'

However, the more he looked at Nial, the more obvious was the fact that it was truly his first friend, who was sitting in front of him.

This led him to smile brightly as he asked,

"Why did you take so long? We were worried that you would miss all the fun!"

Mathias was not sure if the Teradan military camp would be fun but he still said so to tease Nial.

After all, there had been way too many incidents since all the Originals of the new generation had appeared on the nameless island.

But even then, Mathias couldn\'t help but feel relieved that Nial was back.

He even forgot his shyness for a moment which led him to appear in front of his friend and place his hand on Nial\'s shoulder.

"We still have a day left, or am I wrong?" Nial asked in confusion, not understanding why Mathias was in a hurry.

Bella nodded her head in response.

"You are not too late, don\'t worry! But a few things happened after you left, including that we received more information from the government about the future of the Teradan military camp!"

Upon hearing this, Nial\'s eyes flicked to Bella.

He had wanted to keep absorbing and annexing mana before, but that was something he stopped doing now.

"Did something bad happen again? And what did the government say?"

Considering that Bella and Mathias were still here and that Mathias spoke about \'missing all the fun\', it was unlikely for the Teradan military camp to have been terminated.

Thus, he kept his calm and waited for Bella\'s answer.

"Well, to put it simply, the Teradan military camp will continue. In fact, the government looks at the situation quite seriously, and they have even considered retreating from the nameless island.

However, this was only the case before Miranda, the Old Medic you already know, found a quite special Dungeon portal in the deepest parts of the mountain cave!

After some research, it was found out that the dungeon portal released altered mana fluctuations through which dungeons that were close to oversaturation of beasts broke out earlier than they should have under normal circumstances!"

Nial was quite astonished about what he heard. He could tell that Bella was not yet done speaking, but his mind had already started to theorize why it must have happened.

Based on the memories he had received from the Fragment of the Darkness God, no other God had ever used such dungeon portals to attack the race that inhabited the planet they wanted to conquer and claim for themselves.

The tactics of most Gods were quite simple when it came to the conquest of an unawakened planet. They would open weak dungeon portals to planes where the weakest type of monsters inhabited.

It was necessary to slowly nurture an unawakened planet, otherwise, it would end in a rather disastrous situation.

Using a dungeon that forced other dungeon portals to break out all of a sudden was simply too weird because it could lead to a high release of mana.

And this, in turn, could lead to an unstable state of mana in the surrounding area of the unique type of dungeon portal.

"Did they already find out what kind of unique dungeon this is? It shouldn\'t be an ordinary one, that is for sure. Is it an intermediate or Advanced one, like the last hideout of a fallen colonization, ancient ruins, both, or something like that?"

The news about a newly manifested dungeon portal was not really something to be afraid of.

However, the fact that the government didn\'t move away with the entire military base after what had happened meant that the unique dungeon was a bit special.

Nial understood this due to the knowledge he had procured from the memories of the deceased Darkness God.

"Oh? How did you know that they found an Ancient ruin?!" Bella thought, slightly surprised.

But when she gave it some more thought, she understood Nial\'s way of inference.

As such, she nodded her head as if she answered her own question before Bella resumed the explanation of the events Nial had missed out on.

"The dungeon portal is truly connected to a plane that looks like the ancient ruins we found in the past.

In fact, the government believes that the Goblins we fought earlier got their hands on the runic armaments and the blueprints for the beast controlling necklace from there!

They should have found the cave from one of the other entrances!"

After she said this, Bella stopped to allow Nial some time to digest the information.

But seeing that he was not even frowning, let alone that his facial expression changed only a tiny bit, Bella blinked a few times before she continued,

"The dungeon portal in the depth of the cave is presumed to belong to a highly technologically advanced race that was able to inscribe all kinds of complex runes.

Their way of creating the runic armaments we own is exceptional, and several centuries more advanced in comparison to what we are capable of.

As such, the government wants to send a few scouts to inspect the dungeon…

The only issue is that there is a restriction on the dungeon, namely that no one with an Origin ring is able to enter it.

I believe that the Lesser Goblin Shaman was able to procure some runic armaments due to this specific restriction.

Without the restriction on one\'s rank, it wouldn\'t have been able to get its hideous hands on anything.

That is something the government understands as well, which is why I believe they will send us inside the ancient ruins-type dungeon for the next mission!"

Nial just nodded his head at that. Her words made sense, and her thoughts were quite easy to understand as well.

If mankind was able to improve its knowledge about runic armaments which equaled several hundred years\' worth of knowledge, it would certainly be helpful.

This was only obvious, which was why it was also obvious to send the most prodigious Originals inside the dungeon to procure more information.

But there was one point about Nial having a different opinion.

"I guess we will be trained for a month or two before we\'ll be ordered to enter the ancient ruins. The government will probably send reinforcement to prevent other beasts from entering the dungeon.

Of course, they will also kill every beast that would emerge from the ancient ruin\'s dungeon portal.

Additionally, they will also make preparations to send more talented members of the military academies to join us as well."

It would be stupid to send the participants of the Teradan military camp into the ancient ruins dungeon right at this instant.

Some participants were not exactly professionally trained. Though most of them were, even they wouldn\'t be able to handle an ancient ruin-type of dungeon.

Not only strength, but also intelligence, and specific knowledge were required to enter such a dungeon.

It was a fact that Goblins were able to get their hands on specific runic armaments, but that simply meant that they were not that hard to procure.

Thus, the elemental rings and the other armaments Nial and his friends wore were, at most, scrap that one could find in the not so dangerous areas.

The government couldn\'t gamble on the survival of the Teradan military camp\'s participants as well.

After all, most of them had only been trained professionally but had little to zero real-life experience in the fight against dungeon beasts.

That was, of course, not something involving everyone, but from what Nial sensed the participants of the camp had chosen this camp in order to gain what they were lacking the most; an enormous amount of experience in every single aspect, and to train in the best, and in the worst kind of a somewhat safe environment.

Nial\'s case was similar. He understood that his dream to become as strong as possible in the quickest time was only possible in the Teradan military camp, simply because the investments of the government were the highest for that particular camp!

And this had its reason; the strongest new prodigies emerged from the Teradan military camp in 9 out of 10 cases!
