Da Fei said to the player who was on guard at the defense tower, "Tell everyone not to come and pick me up. I'm going to look for trouble!" After saying that, he went straight to the Void Gate at the foot of the mountain and disappeared.
Then, the scene changed. Dafei's eyes were filled with colorful lights, and a sudden heavy pressure made Dafei's body stop abruptly. Alesta, on the other hand, let out a muffled groan and fell to her knees.
System Notification: Warning! You have entered a super-gravity space!
What's this? Dafei immediately looked around and found himself in a ballroom-like Instance Dungeon with colorful lights flowing and changing in all directions. From these colorful lights, he could faintly see the various terrains on the ground, but the "ballroom" Instance Dungeon was indeed a large, dark, and empty space.
Alesta said slowly, "Sir, this should be the core of this floating planet. I'm very heavy, but it doesn't seem to affect you much …"
Dafei frowned. Is it related to my special physique? Since it was the core … Dafei's gaze turned to the dark and empty center of the instance dungeon. "There's nothing here?"
Alesta's voice started to pant. "There's darkness!"
That's right. Darkness itself exists. The answer is in this darkness! Dafei dragged Alesta to the center of the dungeon. The closer they got to the center, the harder it was for Dafei to walk. Alesta's body also became heavier. It felt like she was dragging a large rock to the bottom of the sea! The stranger it was, the more excited Dafei was to find the answer.
After a while, Alesta groaned again. "Sir …"
Dafei looked back and saw that Alesta could no longer lift her legs. She was almost being dragged. Her Stamina was starting to turn red!
Dafei was shocked. Alesta was a leader level boss, but she was already out of Stamina after just a few steps. This was even more exhausting than fighting in the deep sea. How shocking was the effect of the super-gravity space on normal creatures? Without thinking too much, Dafei immediately recalled her to the Angel Summoning Space to rest.
System Notification: Warning! You are in a special environment. Normal space laws are ineffective. You cannot use the Angel Summoning Space!
F * ck me! The Law of Space had failed? Were they trying to tire Alesta to death and trap her here? Shocked, Dafei immediately activated Titan's Grip's Anti-Gravity Field!
With the activation of the domain, Dafei suddenly felt the pressure on him lessen. Alesta also pulled herself together. "Sir, hurry up!"
That was a must! Looking at the rapid depletion of the magical power of the Domain, Dafei felt that time waited for no man and immediately rushed forward. Soon, the colorful light in the background gradually dimmed until it disappeared. Dafei had completely blended into the darkness. It was as deep and empty as the starry sky of the universe.
No, there was no starry sky! It was completely dark, with no reference at all! What the heck, could it be that he could only rely on his intuition and walk towards the place with the greatest pressure? What if he failed no matter what? Alesta, whom he had painstakingly nurtured, was going to die here? Do I still have time to retreat?
At this moment, a golden light flashed on Dafei's radar. [System Notification: Your godly Detection skill has discovered a treasure.]
Huh? Dafei hurriedly looked in the direction indicated by the radar and saw a dim starlight in the darkness!
There's light? There's a treasure! Dafei was overjoyed. In this pitch-black world where it was difficult to move forward, this starlight was no different from a lighthouse in a pitch-black ocean, an oasis in the desert. According to the game's usual style, this light must be the key point of this scene.
Thus, Dafei desperately rushed towards the target — No, why rush? Teleport directly — No, no, no, calm down, don't teleport recklessly! The Space Laws here were different. Even the Angelic Space couldn't be used here, so Teleportation Spells most likely couldn't be used either. If he failed, he would be wasting his precious mana to support his domain. He might even die on the way to the treasure. That would be an unjust death.
Closer! It was getting closer and closer, shining like a gemstone! It's here, only a dozen steps away!
When the Titan's Grip domain completely covered the target, the skeleton of a humanoid creature with tattered clothes suddenly appeared in front of him. The gemstone was emitting a strange light from the skeleton!
Skeleton? There's hope! But it's more important to get the gemstone first! Dafei was overjoyed and pounced on it.
[System Notification: Congratulations! You have discovered the quest artifact 'Dim Gemstone'! You have discovered the 'Mysterious Traveler's Notes'.
— Dim Gemstone: Quest artifact. Has a weak ability to resist the effects of the super-gravity space.
…
Quest artifact!? This disappointed Dafei, but being able to resist the effects of this scene was completely in line with Dafei's basic expectations. It was also in line with the usual style of the system's quests. The more difficult the quest, the more help the player should be given.
At this moment, Dafei had the gemstone in his hand, and the pressure on his body had indeed lessened. Dafei asked Alesta, "What do you think?"
Alesta said in a deep voice, "Sir, it's already extraordinary that this mysterious person can go so far in this scene, but he's still trapped here. I'm afraid the road ahead will be difficult."
Dafei's eyebrows twitched. That's true. I can only go so far by relying on my special physique and the Titan's Grip. Now that I'm almost out of mana, this gemstone may not be able to make much progress. Anyway, there's still a long way to go. Let's retreat first and study this quest artifact thoroughly.
Dafei made a prompt decision, "Retreat!"
The retreat became easier and easier. Even though Dafei's mana was depleted, with the support of this life-saving gemstone, Dafei still rushed out of the darkness and returned to the colorful outer scene. Then, Alesta found another Void Door. Only then did Dafei safely return to the surface with Alesta. It was a grassland with a gentle breeze.
Dafei breathed a sigh of relief and could not wait to open the mysterious traveler's notebook.
The first page of the notebook wrote, "Powerful adventurers who are fortunate enough to find this notebook and gemstone, please hand the notebook and gemstone to the Dwarf Prince Tiberon. You will receive a rich dwarf territory, a noble dwarf title, and endless gold coins …"
Dafei was delighted. Tiberon?! This quest is interesting. Tiberon has already left the wilderness, and he's still my mortal enemy? Are you kidding me? Even if Tiberon didn't leave the wilderness, with his greedy personality, would he give out such a huge reward? But if this gemstone is really that valuable …
Dafei's heart skipped a beat. He quickly flipped to the second page. This page was not written in the common language, but in the Mage Language. As a senior apprentice, Dafei had learned hundreds of these Mage Languages by himself while copying books, so he should be able to recognize some of them.
