I took a step inside the building. In a place whose formations are malfunctioning.
The one that malfunctioned the most was the one that managed the expanded space. It had stretched the space beyond the limit, and now there were rifts everywhere. Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire
I wished it was the only thing that was wrong with this place, but it's not.
The stretching of the place had taken a lot of things out of balance. The formations have broken and now they are broken.
Radiating such power, that even fossils are staying clear of them.
This place is cracked everywhere, with columns broken and tiles turning to gravel. The rifts and formation had done quite a work in this place.
"This place is massive," said someone, and it is.
The formation may have stretched it, but other formations are working on stabilizing. Creating a massive space, which is maintaining a precarious balance.
If things become unstable, a spatial storm could occur. That not even the strongest fossil would be able to survive.
The leaves appeared in a small sphere, but this time, they didn't float around me. The sphere landed on my head, while the leaves placed themselves on my arm.
As it happened, I began to walk slowly toward the pieces of forbidden power crystal, they seemed to be everywhere.
"Finally, I had found it," shouted a man not far away from me.
I could see people looking at him. Marking him.
He stared back. She is strong, a Peak Prime with the power of law. Very few people have the power to fight him.
I could see people looking at their tools, with many crouching down or using their energy to pick up the pieces of the forbidden crystals. Find the newest release on novel※fire.net
I could sense all the pieces of forbidden crystals around me. It is why; I am not picking despite wanting to.
I do not want to draw attention. So, I am moving toward specific pieces while acting like, I barely sensing any and those I am sensing are being picked by others.
Finally, I reached for the piece and crouched to pick it up.
Halfway there, I suddenly increased my speed and took in my hand. Right when an elf appeared beside me; he looked at me before running away.
There are too many pieces to waste time-fighting.
There will be fights, and they will be bad, but not right now. They will happen after everything is picked clean.
The piece, I had picked up isn't big, but it contains a dense amount of forbidden power than most big pieces, that others are going for.
I stored it directly in my core and moved toward another.
A few seconds later, I picked another and another. Not all pieces are filled with a dense amount of forbidden power energy.
No, some of them had a small amount. I picked those for the show.
People are spreading in this massive place as more and more forbidden power crystals get picked.
"That piece!" I heard and saw Prime Lancebrook holding a fist-sized rock. There were very few rocks of that size, and I could feel people looking at me jealously.
It is big and has a huge amount of forbidden power, but it is eye-catching.
The first forbidden power crystal I picked in this place had a third of the forbidden power that rock has, but barely anybody looked at me.
I don't want people to look at me for more than a second, because when the killing starts. I want to be far behind the line on the list of targets.
To be honest. I am very happy, that people are finding so many forbidden power crystals and I hope, they will find even more because it will help me tremendously.
It is like a blessing to me to because it will make searching for me very difficult.
I am truly happy right now. So much, that I wanted to jump in joy.
My joyful thoughts were broken by the mournful scream of the Prime.
I watched him getting attacked by the broken formation as it crashed on it. The screams lasted for one and a half seconds; four seconds later, only his ashes remained.
'The first casualty,' I thought.
He didn't step on the broken formation. No, he was pushed into it by the fossil as he was about to pick up a big rock the size of a palm.
He shouldn't have done that.
I am seeing many primes have let their greed take over their mind, while many remained sane.
They didn't touch big pieces. They are letting those powerful have it. Because they know getting the pieces is easy. It is keeping them that is difficult.
It immediately turned the jubilant mood somber and people became more careful.
They begin to stay away from fossils in and powerful way. Picking pieces relative to their power.
However, not all have learned the lessons. Many are still greedily picking up everything.
I didn't say anything and focused on the forbidden crystals. It is the most important thing right now aside from being cautious as possible.
Secretly, I had upped my defenses and was ready to deal with anything that came my way.
It is why; I am maintaining as much distance from others as possible. Unlike the outside, here one can't attack without a care.
Even earlier, the fossil had used physical power instead of energy or law. Using them might trigger any of the broken formations.
Seconds passed and turned into minutes. The crystals begin to disappear fast.
Now, the people have become very cautious. Staying absolutely clear of the fossil. I too have moved toward the smaller forbidden crystals.
Letting others have the bigger one.
I have got enough to finish most of my research and, seeing the reading I am getting, there is a more forbidden power in this place.
It is why, after a minute. I had stopped and stood away in the corner, watching others.
This provided me with its own benefits, as I was able to see who has better tools and even able to predict their rages, given the way, the people moved.
