Rudy got more and more excited as he spoke. Even his hands were trembling.
Jack nodded with a smile, “I’ll leave five keys for you. You can go exchange something as well. Even though you’re
an alchemist, it’s not bad to strengthen yourself.”
Hearing Jack says that, Rudy became emotional as tears threatened to fall. Jack did not blame him for dragging
Jack down, and even gave him something!
For him Jack really was his great benefactor!

The two of them advanced as they talked and slowly realized that something was wrong. There were more and
more corpses on the ground. Sometimes, two or three corpses would be scattered around, and other times, they
would see seven or eight corpses stacked together, tainting the ground full of blood.
Those corpses had not been buried or burned at all. Upon closer inspection, they noticed that the corpses had died
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthorribly.
The corpses were riddled with wounds. Some wounds were from claw marks, while others were bite marks. Some
of them even had their stomachs opened up with their guts spilled out.
Rudy had seen many corpses before, and his ability to withstand sights like those was already quite high. However,
even he was having a hard time. He felt like he was about to puke at any moment. It was just too disgusting!
How did things end up like that?
Before this, around three-quarters of the dead were warriors from third-grade worlds, and only a quarter of them
were from second-grade worlds. However, after entering the deepest part of the inner regions, he was shocked to
notice that it was now half and half. Neither side seemed to have an advantage.
Two-thirds of the dead had probably come from the beasts. The wounds on their bodies were too obvious.
It was immediately recognizable. It seemed like the beasts in the deepest parts of the inner region were even
fiercer than they had thought.
Rudy said after a long time, “Isn’t this too crazy of a sight? No wonder those who were inside were running away so
frantically! So many people have died. Other than the warriors that are stronger than normal, who would continue
staying inside? It’s just too dangerous.”
As he said that, he even wondered how many people were left in the deepest parts of the inner region. After all, so
many have died.
Only those who were incredibly brave or unconcerned about their lives would remain inside. Everyone wanted
valuable treasures, but they would need to keep themselves alive to have them.
No matter what, warriors valued their lives. Unless they were really obsessed with treasures at the expense of
everything else, they would probably not remain there.
Jack sighed as he looked into the distance. There were no traces of life to be seen anywhere near them.
He frowned and said, “There should still be some people who are remaining in the deepest parts. They probably
feel that danger comes with opportunity and them being in such a dangerous environment would mean that they
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwould gain much more than everyone else, bringing them to greater heights.”
Many people felt that way. Jack had encountered quite a few.
Rudy raised an eyebrow, wanting to say something when he suddenly saw two people frantically running outward in
the distance.
It seemed like the two of them were like those Jack and Rudy had met. They must have not been able to stand the
dangers of the deepest parts anymore and were fleeing fortheir lives. Of the two, one of them looked thin and a bit
weak, but Jack and Rudy would not judge from appearances.
After all, in the martial world, appearances could be deceiving.
Anyone who could run out of the inner region would probably be at least somewhat skilled. The other one seemed
muscular but had an incredibly small nose. His face looked very strange.
The two of them looked at Jack and Rudy, widening their eyes. After that, they exchanged a look.
Jack could see exasperation and mockery in their eyes. It was as if they were saying that he and Rudy were just
suicidal.
