1378 Outstanding Prince
The teleportation door that returned to the 17th floor of the 18th floor of the Endless Abyss lit up.
The figures of Prince Montique and the others appeared one by one.
Turning around, he saw that Hasol, who was left behind, had also walked out of the teleportation door. No one in the group was missing. Prince Montique gently exhaled without a trace, and the serious expression on his face relaxed slightly.
From the 17th floor, the traces of human activity in the Endless Abyss would clearly increase. Moreover, there was a human settlement that was the deepest.
Being able to return to this floor meant that their group had basically arrived at a safe place and had hope of successfully returning to a normal environment.
Although it had only taken them less than three days to return to the 17th floor from the 39th floor, the danger and difficulty of this period made them feel that this period of time was longer than 30 days.
Three days ago, when Prince Montique saw Princess Romanti catch up to Chu Nan and the other two and leave first, he did not take it to heart.
Princess Romanti thought about how her relationship with him was not good. The two of them were also the most outstanding descendants of the royal family of this generation, so they definitely had a powerful competitive relationship. It was normal for their relationship to be bad. Moreover, Princess Romanti had always disliked Prince Montique and had already questioned his decision to give up on Chu Nan a few times. Now that she had taken the initiative to leave with him and the others, he was quite happy to see it happen.
Although it was a pity that Chu Nan had left because if he was lucky enough to encounter Pamela again, he might need his help again, other than her, from his own needs, Prince Montique did not want Chu Nan to move with him.
The reason was very simple. Chu Nan was too outstanding.
Unlike other descendants of the royal family, Prince Montique’s goal in participating in this Garden Hunting Assembly was not only to successfully pass. He also hoped that through his outstanding performance in the Garden Hunting Assembly, he could add points to the hearts of the elders of the royal family and allow him to occupy the most advantageous position when competing for a higher inheritance in the future.
In that case, he could not let Chu Nan steal his limelight with him.
Although Chu Nan was not a member of the royal family and would not surpass him in the same evaluation, if he snatched the outstanding performance opportunity in some things, it would undoubtedly affect him.
Therefore, in summary, Prince Montique was still very happy to see Princess Romanti and Chu Nan move together, so he did not stop them.
However, Prince Montique did not expect that after Chu Nan and the other three disappeared from the teleportation door to the 40th floor, just as they discussed and decided to go to the 40th floor together and plan to enter the teleportation door, it actually… exploded!
If not for the fact that Prince Montique had sensed it immediately and that the people beside him had agile reactions, the intense spatial energy fluctuation caused by the explosion of the teleportation door would probably have brought powerful damage to them.
However, even so, the three members of the Freedom and Flower Mercenary Group who entered the teleportation door first were annihilated, and not even their corpses were left.
After watching the teleportation door explode and disappear, many people panicked for a while. Fortunately, with Prince Montique, the leader of the Freedom and Flower Mercenary Group, and several experienced mercenaries holding down the fort, there was no huge commotion.
Prince Montique and Captain Devirak discussed and felt that the current Endless Abyss was filled with strangeness. Even the teleportation door had actually exploded. Clearly, an extremely special situation had happened.
For safety’s sake, the two groups of people officially decided to cooperate and adventure together.
In the beginning, regardless of whether it was Prince Montique or Captain Devirak, they were unwilling to retreat and leave just like that. Therefore, the group explored the nearby teleportation doors. However, they found three teleportation doors that led to the 40th floor in a row and discovered that these three teleportation doors had also turned into ruins.
At the same time, they encountered more and more mutated beasts and became stronger. Even with the powerful strength of two groups of people, it began to be difficult for them to deal with them.
After sensing this, he could basically confirm that he could not enter the 40th floor. At the same time, because the second stage of the Garden Hunting Assembly was about to end, for safety’s sake, Prince Montique finally decided to return.
This decision was in line with Captain Devirak. After the two of them decided, the others naturally did not have any objections. The group began to prepare to return.
Fortunately, the teleportation door leading to the 40th floor had been blown up, but the teleportation door that returned to the 38th floor was still intact.
Everyone broke through the seal of more and more mutated beasts along the way and spent more than three days. When they successfully returned to the 17th floor, they were already injured. Even the strongest, Captain Devirak, and Prince Montique, were no exception.
Prince Montique looked around and saw that not only did the group of royal descendants who followed him look exhausted and weak, but even the group of mercenaries from the Freedom and Flower Mercenary Group behind Captain Dravik also had tired expressions. Clearly, they had already exhausted a large amount of their energy from the continuous high-intensity battles in the past few days.
The only person who could maintain his high spirits and still look around warily was Hasol, who was standing beside Princess Kasyapa and putting on a protective appearance.
Seeing Princess Kasyapa lying softly in Hasol’s arms, Prince Montique shook his head lightly and came to Captain Devirak’s side.
“Captain Devirak, I think… shouldn’t we find a place to rest first?”
Captain Devirak glanced at his subordinates behind him and nodded.
“Yes, it’s time to rest properly. In fact, the previous few levels of mutated beasts have clearly decreased. It should be relatively safe here now and I can rest a little.”
As Captain Dravik spoke, he opened his personal terminal and looked at it. Then, he pointed to the right and continued, “If there are no accidents, there’s a small relay station not far from here. It’s something left behind by us people who are begging for food in the Endless Abyss to make it convenient for everyone. Let’s go there and rest for a while. I hope it hasn’t been discovered and destroyed by those annoying mutated beasts.”
“Alright.” Prince Montique did not hesitate and agreed immediately. Then, he turned around and straightened his body before saying to everyone in a clear voice, “Everyone, work harder. Let’s find a place to rest in front. During this period of time, please continue to focus and not be too relaxed. Hasol, Rodri, Ronze… The few of you are in charge of guarding the surroundings. Notify everyone at any time if you discover the situation.”
The few people who were called by him did not reject, including Hasol. He pushed Kasyapa in his arms to another princess beside him and went to the end of the team to guard.
Seeing everyone’s actions, Captain Devirak could not help but smile.
Along the way, he interacted with this Prince Montique and fought the enemy. He had personally seen him deal with all kinds of things and had long forgotten the trace of contempt he had for this young man from the royal family.
Although Prince Montique was still slightly young in some matters because of his age, his overall considerations were very thorough, he was not shocked in matters, and his strength was strong. Most importantly, he also had a very strong affinity and leadership ability. He was a very comprehensive talent.
If he continued to nurture him seriously, he would definitely become a very outstanding leader in the royal family in the future.
