Dark Glow:
Mark Talley began to search this particular spot. Not long after, he felt a sudden throbbing sensation in his heart. The next second, his eyes shone with bright light.
"It's here," He muttered to himself. Then he started to dig out the place. As he digs deeper, the throbbing sensation increases further.
Finally, after digging a deep pit. He came across something. The digging tool it's something hard. It seems like a bone.
Realizing that he carefully started removing the soil around the bone. After a few seconds, he finally saw something.
There is a severed left arm covered with tattered clothes. Next, his gaze shifted to the left arm's palm which was holding something.
When Mark tried to see what it was. He saw a throbbing dark green color blood with disease rule in it.
"Ha...Ha...Ha....," After seeing that he let out a hysterical laughter.
"It's real!"
"The legends are true. There is indeed a disease rule treasure here," Mark said with a smile.
Finally, he saw the hope of a breakthrough. Then he crouched down to collect the blood. When his hands got closer. The blood felt natural attraction.
Seeing that he easily held the trace of blood in his palm. Looking at the dark green blood, a hint of longing flashes in his eyes.
Then his eyes turned dimmed as he realized something. This secret space can't withstand the power of a level-6 wizard. If he tries to break through here, it is nothing but a suicide.
Besides, he has to accomplish his task. There is a person to kill. Thinking about Vincent Carey, a ruthless glint flashes in his eyes.
Though he didn't have any problem with Vincent. But someone allowed him to find the disease rule in exchange for Vincent's life.
Now he can't go back on his words. When it comes to Gilbert Reesen and other elders. He was not worried at all.
Already, people from the Taboo Hall are asking him to enter their wizard hall. Now with this opportunity, he could guess somewhat that this opportunity was given by them.
When everything was over. He decides to enter the Taboo Hall legally. Then no one can stop him.
After gaining some clarity, he puts the blood inside the storage bracelet. His next stop is to find Vincent Carey.
After standing up, he looks around. It's hard to find Vincent Carey in this secret place. But he has a feeling that they will meet each other soon.

From MC's perspective:
The following day,
I woke up early. After getting ready an hour later, I appeared outside and started to leave.
The atmosphere was the same with gloomy darkness. After crossing a few miles, I came across a nice place.
"This?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise. Because there are traces of battle on the ground.
I can see parts of broken artifacts buried under the ground. The battle must have happened hundreds of years ago.
But the place seemed to be untouched for the past few hundred years. Seeing that a quick glint flashes in my eyes.
Earlier, I was looking for this place. But fortunately, I didn't miss it. Now, I have to search for any valuables within today.
Then I started to search for this place by using a digging tool.
Time flies,
The wizard students from other halls are busy in their search. As most of them are aware they will be kicked out of this special place at the end of the day.
Before that, they want to find as many relics as possible.
On the other hand, Make Talley is busy looking for someone.
Outside,
The council elder looked at the time. Seeing that the time limit is nearing its end. He became vigilant.
Already, the wizard halls have suffered the loss of many wizard students. He can tell that a lot of killings and looting were involved.
When the special place nears its end. Then bloodshed would be even more.
Then he saw that the same thing was troubling everyone's mind.
Inside,
A few hours later,
I found full intact skeletons on the ground. There was no wound mark on the skeleton. The skull was fine without fracture.
The skeleton position looks like someone fainted on the ground. I have one more terrible guess that someone sucked their life instantly.
A deep chill flashes in my eyes. From the cloth, it looks like a skeleton belongs to someone powerful.
Then I started to dig the nearby area. I have a feeling that a single day is not enough to search this place.
I had one skeleton just after digging for a couple of hours. If this goes on, I might end up wasting time.
Then I make a firm decision. I started to transfer some important stuff from my storage bracelet to the system space.
After doing that I left some herbs in the storage bracelets. If my assumption is right, then the Supreme Elder will check everyone's storage bracelet for sure.
Then I continued to dig up the soil.
Click!
After a few minutes, I came across another bone. When I removed the soil covering the skeleton. I discovered it was a female skeleton.
The female skeleton's skull has long hair and has a lot of fancy rings on its finger. Then my attention turned towards the left hand.
Where the skeletons seem to be holding something. The tattered bag gives me a familiar feeling.
When I was struggling in No Man's Land. I had come across something similar.
"This must be a storage bag," I muttered to myself.
I went forward to collect the bad. I picked up the bag gently. Even after my touch, the storage bag seems to be fine.
Last time, I had picked a mana stone of high grade. But I feel this bag has nothing. When I tried to probe it. I found densely packed runic restrictions on it.
Any forced attempt would cause it to explode. Seeing that my expression turned ugly. A hint of apprehension appeared in my eyes.
It's impossible to explore it now. I can only do something about it later. These 2 skeletons are far away from each other. It looks like some kind of mass grave.
