448 447: Leaving Gravenstone City
Three days went by after Corey and Selene''s arrival in Gravenstone City. Just as Pam said, Corey and Selene were able to get their temporary ancient seal the following day.
Not having to go through the long tests and probation period was something Corey really appreciated. He was on a timer, and wasting even a day in a city he had no desire to stay in was not something he wanted.
Obtaining the ancient seal was a simple thing that was done in the city hall. It was a short ritual where a prayer is said to the Old Ones, and then a liquid made from the bone, ash, and blood of a monster is used as ink to draw a seal that closely resembled the letters ''G'' and ''S'' joined together in an entric manner.
The seal was on his palm, and if he wanted, the seal would be invisible and not be seen.
After obtaining the temporary ancient seal, Corey decided to obtain more knowledge by going to the library.
Once again, Pam made it easier for him to use the library, and although Corey was curious as to how she was able to gain the power to influence a lot of things, when he thought about her strength, he realized that it was not so surprising anymore.
Although some might find it strange that Pam was helping him so much for no benefit at all, Corey was not bothered.
Since she wanted to be acquainted with him, then he had no qualms with it. There''s no way he''d reject bing acquainted with somebody as talented and powerful as Pam.
After reading all the books in the library of Gravenstone City, Corey also decided to chat and be acquainted with some citizens of Gravenstone.
There were information that could not be obtained from books and libraries.
Also, Corey came to realize that he, Selene, and Pam were not the only Outsiders in Gravenstone.
At first, he was a little bit surprised when he encountered another Outsider, he realized that it was not surprising for there to be another Outsider.
ording to what he knew, there were more Outsiders in Gravenstone in the first seven days since they came to the shattered dimension, but because of the difficulty of the Primal Expanse and the Fog of Death, a lot of Outsiders chose to leave.
The ones that remained were Outsiders who believed that they could either benefit or find an ancient stone from the Primal Expanse, the Fog of Death, or Gravenstone City itself.
With all of these, three days passed, and Corey''s next destination was a city called Stormhold City. Stormhold City was in a region called, Raging Sky Region.
The Raging Sky Region was called the Raging Sky Region because of its danger zone. The danger zone was called Raging Sky, and it was a ce where lightning fell without pause, tornadoes appeared as frequently as a female''s mood swings, and thunder rumbled continuously.
ording to Corey''s calctions, Nina''s suggestions, and the faint connection he felt toward the remaining three infinity crystals, the Raging Sky dangerzone had an infinity crystal, and it was most likely a lightning infinity crystal.
Stormhold City was the city closest to the Raging Sky dangerzone, and Corey nned on going there to get into the danger zone.
He just hoped that there was no extremely powerful monster like the Capra King in the Raging Sky, however, he knew that this was just wishful thinking on his part.
The possibility of there being a monster, abomination, or being as powerful as the Capra King was not low at all. In fact, it was exceedingly high.
Infinity Crystals could transform a carp to a dragon.
----
On a normal dark and stormy day of Gravenstone, Corey, Selene, and Pam stood in front of the ancient stone of Gravenstone City..
The ancient stone resembled arge boulder that was at least ten times Corey''s height. Therge ancient stone was dark purple, and it had countless ck runes that glowed softly as it hovered a few centimeters above the ground.
Standing beside the ancient stone was a tall man wearing a brown T-shirt, ck pants, and ck boots. The man''s left arm was filled with rune tattoos that reached his neck, and at the back of his left hand was a red rune tattoo that gave off a much different aurapared to the remaining rune tattoos.
This man was a Harbinger!
The fourth stage of the rune tattoo system!
The man''s expression was stoic and expressionless as he gazed at Corey, Pam, and Selene.
"Where do you n on going?" The man asked with a voice that was much deeper than normal.
His gaze was mainly on Pam, and Pam nced at Corey. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Corey answered calmly, "Stormhold City."
The instant Corey spoke, Pam''s eyes widened slightly, and she looked at Corey with a surprised expression.
"You''re going to Stormhold City?"
Corey nodded, "Yes I am. Is there a problem?"
Pam shook her head slightly, "None at all. It''s just that I also nned on going to Stormhold City, I didn''t expect you to also go Stormhold City… I thought we were going to go our separate ways after this, but it seems like we''ll still be seeing ourselves in Stormhold."
Corey stared at her for a full good three seconds, and Pam''s lips twitched.
"What?"
Corey looked away, "Nothing."
''Who knows whether you just lied, and the reason why you acted surprised and said you were also going to Stormhold was because I said I''m also going to Stormhold.''
''If you were actually acting, then you definitely deserve an award.''
Corey silently added in his heart, and then he gazed at the Harbinger, and calmly said.
"Stormhold City, please."
The Harbinger nced at Pam, and when he saw Pam nod, he touched the ancient stone with his left hand. A red glow appeared on his hand, and then a ripple spread across the ancient stone.
The Harbinger turned and gazed at Corey, Pam, and Selene, and slowly said.
"Walk into it."
Corey and Pam nodded, and then they all approached the ancient stone and walked into it. The ancient stone rippled like water, and a red glow engulfed the entire ancient stone for three seconds before receding.
The Harbinger slowly removed his hand, and then without a change in his expression, he left.
