Runemaster in the Last Days

The main reason was naturally because they didn't have any reason why they should come out.

City A Base was managed by Mr. Jones while the others were staying in City I Base. The formation that Riya set up for them were not triggered and their lives were not in danger, so the two of them didn't have any reason to go back.

During this period of time, there were already several riots of magic beasts because Riya took the special magic cores.

The fifth rank special magic cores were all kept in her world to be given away while the sixth rank special magic cores were all taken by Riya.

Through the use of these special magic cores, Riya had reached rank 6 late stage. After that, she simply used various resources that they have found within the crack to help her speed up her training.

These resources were far behind the special magic core.

But it was good enough for Riya.

So in just a little bit over the year ever since the earthquake happened and nearly two years ever since her return from that world, Riya had already reached the peak stage of rank 6.

Once her mana was full, she could start her attempt to reach rank 7.

Samuel himself was not far behind.

Various valuable resources that they have found within the crack were taken by them and used without hesitation.

In this way, Samuel's sword and Riya's world had more or less recovered.

They did encounter some rank 7 magic beasts, but these magic beasts were not the soul type magic beasts like the Ghost Transformed Beast. Because of that, the two of them could still deal with these magic beasts one way or another.

The two of explored the crack further away from City A Base and City J Base.

They were planning to make a complete map of the crack's world, but so far, their attempt was far from successful.

Aside from killing many magic beasts and finding some ores that they could use, the two of them didn't manage to completely explore the crack.

However, they did have some discovery.

"The crack's world is limited and some parts are blocked by the rocks," Samuel said while looking at the wall in front of him. "It seems as if something is blocking us from going forward."

Blocking them from going forward?

Riya shook her head and sighed. "In any case, we now know that these magic beasts are not unlimited."

They have killed a lot of magic beasts and the areas above them should have been a bit cleaner than the places they hadn't visited.

"It's impossible for there to be unlimited number of magic beasts," Samuel said quietly.

He was sure that if there were so many magic beasts, the Green Planet would never be able to survive.

"Haha…" Riya let out dry laugh when talking about this matter.

"Forget it. Have you made your preparation to enter rank 7?" Samuel asked.

The two of them told each other their progress more or less. In this way, Samuel knew that the resources that Riya found had allowed her to reach the peak of rank 6.

If she could enter rank 7 within the next two months, this meant that she only took two years from her return to reach rank 7 again.

This kind of speed was definitely the speed of genius even in that world.

And in this world with less mana, it was still very impressive.

Though, they had to admit that they used up a lot of resources from the crack for them to be able to reach their current rank. Without so many resources used solely for themselves, they would be a waste if they couldn't reach rank 7 so quickly.

"Well, I still need some time. You will reach the peak stage soon too, right?" Riya asked back.

Samuel nodded.

He also found some resources that could help him practice. Those were all valuable materials in that world but here, they could take it at will.

For a moment, he didn't know whether to treat this crack as a dangerous place or their own training ground.

Because it was obvious that the two of them didn't encounter that much danger.

Well, they did see some troublesome rank 7 magic beasts. But these magic beasts were not their opponent and could be solved in a short period of time.

"In that case, let's go back to the surface." Riya stretched her hand. "We have seen too many dead ends."

The two of them tried to explore the deepest place of the crack but they found out that there were too many roads blocked down here.

It was clear that the crack has a limit.

And the limit of the magic beasts that came to find them is only rank 7.

Yes, the highest ranked magic beast they have seen so far was only rank 7.

If there were any rank 8 magic beasts, Riya and Samuel would not hesitate to run away directly. The two of them knew very well that while they could contend against some rank 7 magic beasts, they would stand no chance when facing rank 8 magic beasts.

Even some rank 7 magic beast was harder to deal with than the others.

So the two of them would not provoke these magic beasts if it was possible and simply left from the other direction.

After all, they came to the crack for exploration and not to seek their death.

"Ok." Samuel nodded in agreement.

Riya took out some magic beasts' blood and started to draw on the ground. By now, Samuel could no longer count how many teleportation formations that Riya had made within the crack.

After all, it was a very convenient formation.

When they met an opponent that they couldn't beat, they could just run away.

Swish!

With light, the two of them disappeared from the crack and appeared on top of a ruined building outside.
