Chapter 412 Reaching The Door



“But now, circumstances have changed,” Samuel continued, his tone grave. “With Frant imposing on our land and our lives in danger, we have no choice but to return to the city, our ancestral home. And that means facing whatever dangers lurk there.”

As Samuel concluded his explanation, the two men continued their journey, feeling the weight of the importance of their mission pressing down on their shoulders. However, they did so purposefully, guided by their collective determination to safeguard their home and those who lived there.

As they moved forward, they confronted the difficulties the wilderness presented. They faced obstacles in the form of steep inclines, treacherous pitfalls, and rushing rivers. Despite this, the group worked together toward a common goal and assisted one another in overcoming the obstacles.

There was always a hand to catch, someone who stumbled, and there was always a voice to offer direction when the path ahead was unclear.

The journey would not have been possible without Ethan’s in-depth familiarity with the area. He would frequently scout ahead of them to make sure there were no obstacles in their way, while Samuel’s self-controlled demeanor kept the other group members on track and motivated.

Erik had an important role, even though he hadn’t arrived in the village until recently. His one-of-a-kind understanding of the city that lay beyond their destination was extremely helpful; his task was to guide the group in the sprawling underground city as they tackled their mammoth endeavor.

The sunlight that reached the forest floor from above was diffused by the wintery clouds and the remnants of the overhanging vegetation, creating dynamic shadows and light patterns on the ground below.

The sound of chirping birds, rustling leaves, and the occasional crackling sound of a twig breaking under the weight of creatures could not be seen, filling the air like a symphonic performance of nature.

The ten-person team communicated effectively through silence as they moved through the wilderness, a testament to their shared knowledge and experience.

The group moved stealthily and gracefully, their gazes swiftly sweeping the area around them, always looking for potential dangers.

They had a long journey ahead of them, during which they had to navigate through dense undergrowth and ford-bubbling streams. They stopped only when it was indispensable so that they could save their energy for future challenges. They were going to need all of their strength for what was going to happen next.

After what seemed like an eternity, the thicket finally started to thin out and make way for a clearing. There, against a natural stone wall, stood a door made of metal; it was the ominous watcher and keeper of the ancient underground city, the ancestral home for Liberty Watch Village.

The weather had taken its toll on the door, but it remained sturdy. The group came to a halt; their attention was immediately drawn to the towering structure in the distance. It was here that they would legitimately start their journey. This was also the place where Erik, at the time a mysterious figure of unknown origin but now the village savior, suddenly appeared.

Now they would follow him into that darkness he came from, back into their past, to ensure their future and families would be safe.

They looked at the door as one; their objective was crystal clear: free the city from monsters. The group was confronted with the still door was ready to be opened.

Ethan broke the silence with a sense of purpose and said, “We’re finally here.”

As he leaned against a tree to survey the enormous entrance, Erik focused on Samuel before returning his attention to the door.”Samuel, can you open the door? It would be easier for you.” His voice echoed the respect he held for the man.

Samuel nodded at Erik’s request. Even though the door was enormous and undeniably heavy, he was well-equipped with monstrous strength and well-toned muscles capable of handling the challenge.

His muscles had been toughened by years of training, farming, and fighting Thaids, and if there was one thing he knew for sure, he could count on his strength when it mattered the most.

As Samuel approached the metal door, the atmosphere had an unmistakable sense of gravity. He made sure that both of his feet were firmly planted on the ground, rolled his shoulders back, and then took a deep breath before reaching for the smooth, hard surface of the door.

Samuel took a firm stance in front of the door, his presence dominating the space as he reached for the enormous wheel handle.

The rust and moss on it were a physical manifestation of the passage of time. After taking a few deep breaths, he began to use all of his strength to turn the handle, and he could feel his muscles tense up due to the effort. As the handle started to resist the force he was applying, his grip became tighter, and the veins in his arms became more visible.

After some effort, Samuel’s massive strength caused the wheel to start turning, and each rotation required the strength of an ox to complete. This resulted in a low, grating noise reverberating throughout the still forest. He set his jaw straight, his mind becoming increasingly concentrated.

The door’s weight was nothing compared to the weight of the task they were about to undertake, so there was no need to worry about that.

As the metal groans of the turning wheel echoed eerily all around them, sweat dripped down the older man’s brow, and he breathed in short, choppy gasps. After what seemed like ages, the door finally started to yield to his strength and open.

The wheel started to turn, and the mechanism unlocked with a loud clang reverberating throughout the tunnel behind.

Samuel gave the wheel one last mighty heave and then pushed against the enormous door as he finished turning it. Before finally giving way, it protested its opening by creaking and groaning as it opened.

The massive door swung open, revealing the vast tunnel beyond it. This was the entrance to their history and possibly their future as well.

When the massive door was finally able to be opened all the way, the air from the tunnel in front of them began to billow out, bringing with it the smell of old, untouched earth and a lingering sense of mystery.

Erik peered into the pitch-black tunnel, which seemed to be beckoning them forward in a threatening manner. His heart was pounding in his chest, and he could feel a faint echo of his past fear resonating in his mind. The Humanoid Thaid lived here.

He recalled his most recent excursion into the vast underground city and his spine-chilling confrontation with the humanoid thaid and the Acidspitter Arthropods. The memories sent a shiver down his spine..𝙘𝙤𝙢
