Chapter 473: Chapter 169: White Family in the City of Thieves 3

The few people resting were all awakened.

Leonard Churchill was also on alert immediately.

When those waiting took up their weapons and hid behind the wall, they saw bright lights shining through the dense fog down the street.

Seeing this, Captain Christ was delighted and signaled everyone to lower their guard, explaining, “Don’t worry, it’s the main force of our ‘Phoenix Group1!” The other hunters sighed in relief.

The chances of survival were higher with the arrival of the main force.

However, Leonard Churchill and his group could only sneer.

It was clear that these guys had come here following the path they had cleared earlier.

They were obviously here to take advantage of others’ achievements.

Captain Christ jumped up to the top of the ruined building and waved his lantern to guide the people in the fog.

“Clack, clack, clack…”

The sounds of mechanical friction grew closer.

They saw several heavy mech armor paving the way from the fog, followed by a team of nearly a hundred well-equipped hunters emerging from the other end of the street.

Captain Christ clearly recognized them and immediately welcomed them enthusiastically.

“Christ, you’ve made a great contribution this time! Hahaha, you’ve already approached the core location so quickly…”

“Yes, your squad has made the fastest progress among the exploration groups. The higher-ups have already said that your team will receive extra bonuses.”

“Several hunter groups have disappeared around here before, and our strategist thought there was a troublesome Catastrophe. We were prepared to send an expert to forcefully push through, but didn’t expect you to break through.”

Leonard Churchill and his group did not interact with those people, they just listened from a distance.

The significance of the exploration group was here.

Using a large number of small-scale teams to explore first and leaving a trail of movement.

They were like lights placed in the dark.

People following behind would know which areas were dangerous from which lights had gone out.

This approach could minimize the risks to the main force and allow them to reach the pit in the shortest possible time.

The [Mouthed Woman] beforehand could not necessarily be cleared away even if a High Tier Card Master had come.

They were able to reach this spot because of the special individuals in their team—Leonard Churchill and Catherine Carter.

However, only Leonard and Catherine had truly faced the monsters, so no one else could make head or tail of it.

But Captain Christ, in order to claim all the credit for himself, had been vague about this process.

After the rally, they quickly moved on.

The reinforcements that came later consisted of a hundred elites from the Phoenix Group, led by a Third Order Card Master.

Leonard Churchill and his group of irregulars tagged along as casual members.

After a while, they passed through a wall-like black fog and their vision suddenly cleared up.

Looking ahead, they could see a cliff-like deep pit in the center of the city ruins.

It was so deep that they couldn’t see the bottom, and no one knew what was below.

It was like a bottomless pit, all pitch black.

The members of the Phoenix Group were all thrilled to see it.

Because they, who had successfully opened the way to the ruins in the first wave, would receive substantial bonuses.

“Hahaha, we’ve arrived!”

“Quickly inform the leader, we are at the center of the ruins!”

This deep pit was the goal of the exploration team, but it also marked the beginning of another exploration attempt.

People started to set up camp in the ruins. The heavy machinery began to build defensive fortifications and set up the camp.

This large-scale exploration was a long-term mission, and the larger hunter teams all had enough experience.

Before long, various other large hunter groups and mercenary groups arrived at the camp one after another, apart from the Phoenix Group.

Various transport teams wearing mechanical exoskeletons moved around like ants, transporting materials needed for the camp from Lion City.

Within half a day, machinery and Extraordinary Power had raised a mechanical town with a ten-meter-high wall.

Leonard Churchill and his group were temporary members of an irregular team, so no one paid attention to them.

They found a corner in the camp and set up a tent.

Although these hunter groups were theoretically subordinate to the Lionheart Family, Miss Carter didn’t seem to have any intention of revealing her identity.

She continued to play the role of a little doctor and stayed with Leonard and the others.

Even though they all came for the deep pit, it would certainly be inappropriate to rashly venture down there given the current situation.

After all, several batches of Pioneer Hunters had already gone down, but not a single person had returned alive.

In the tent, Leonard Churchill was meditating in the lotus position.

Colin and Catherine Carter were next to him, doing their own things.

At this time, Elder Clinton, who didn’t know where he had been wandering, suddenly returned.

This lecherous old man, who was always hanging back when something was going on, vanished once he got near the pit. No one knew where he had gone.

As soon as he came in, he gulped down two mouthfuls of wine, then said solemnly, “Leonard, boy, I might have to go down that pit.”

“Oh?”

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill’s expression became strange.

This was the first time he had seen such a serious expression on the old man’s face, so he asked, “Elder, do you know what’s down there?”

Elder Clinton’s eyes were like a mist: “I don’t know.”

Everyone: “…”

Leonard Churchill asked again, “Then you?”

Elder Clinton answered his thoughts at this moment with silence.

He needed to find something, and it was down there.

Listening to this, Leonard Churchill’s eyes narrowed slightly. He thought for a moment and revealed an equally excited idea, and immediately made a decision, “I will accompany Elder.”

From what he could see so far, the deep pit involved not only the Angel’s Remains stated by the Silver Moon Leader, but also the fragmentary history from thousands of years ago.

There was also a mysterious old man who had lived for who knows how many hundreds of years.
