Chapter 1332 Heading Deeper Into The Pyramid

*A.N: Reload the last 4 chapters, I was having an issue with the site but it has been fixed and the bug of wrong chapters will not come up again. Sorry for the inconvenience*
The human group of five didn't know there was a skeleton chasing after them. After leaving the tomb, they all felt a sense of relief and a little hint of sadness. If they were able to get even one of those flowers, they would've been able to benefit greatly from it, but unfortunately, they were unable to get anything from it which was a little frustrating, especially after seeing just how good they were with their own eyes.
Grey was the only one who didn't show any signs of reluctance after leaving the tomb, but the others didn't suspect anything since from the start he didn't even bother with any of the flowers, rather, he urged them to leave the place.
If Grey hadn't been as sharp as he was, Sylvia's brother would most likely have been hurt by now, or even worse, killed.
The path before them was still as long as the previous ones, and they didn't have any choice other than walking it.
They didn't dare to rush through the path since it was unknown what dangers lay ahead, all they could do was cautiously walk through while ensuring their safety.
Sylvia's brother was standing closer to Grey now since he had saved his life twice. He knew what he should do if he wanted to guarantee his safety in this pyramid.
Grey was the only one who was walking ahead with a blank expression, with the help of Void, he knew the areas that possessed the best treasures, the only drawback was that with top treasures came danger. The better the treasure the more dangerous he felt it would be.
This was something that had been happening for a long time now, and everyone present was aware of how the world works. But none of them is willing to give up on the opportunity that has presented itself before them, Grey included. Unless he knew it was a certain death situation if he went for a treasure, he would never back down.
….
"Not again."
Brax complained when they arrived at another intersection, this time, there were four paths.
Elaris unconsciously took a glance at Grey and to her surprise, he was already walking towards the last path on the left. He didn't even pause to take a glance at the other three paths, he just walked straight into the path.
"Dammit…" She muttered through clenched teeth, but she still followed him.
She had seen how powerful he was, and even though she didn't want to admit it, she saw him as an equal. She felt the only reason Grey was powerful was due to his unpredictability. Having multiple elements and being able to unleash such powerful explosive attacks with his fists was something that set him apart from others. Nevertheless, she didn't think she would lose against him.
The only reason she was following him was to make sure all five of them who entered this place came out alive. If Grey were to encounter something he couldn't handle, Sylvia's brother would undoubtedly die, and that wasn't something she wanted to see.
Grey heard the grumbling Elaris, but he couldn't care less. He wasn't forcing them to follow him. From the start, he didn't even want her to be in the squad.
Elaris was more annoyed at the fact that Grey wasn't even giving her any face. He was acting like she didn't exist, something that had never happened before.
For someone who has grown accustomed to always getting attention from those around her, it was a new feeling being treated in such a manner by Grey. Even her Teacher didn't treat her in such a way.
While she was still being pissed about what Grey was doing. They soon walked into an underground stream.
Grey was standing before the stream, he placed one of his fingers inside as if he was testing something. He removed it just as quickly as he put it inside.
The others only saw a ripple on the surface of the water, other than Grey, no one else knew what happened.
'There's no way we can defeat it inside the water. It's in its best environment.' Grey felt a headache when he thought about what they had to face.
A powerful Magical Beast was lurking in the underground stream, one that possessed frightening attack power. When in the water, it's a fearsome beast to battle against.
"There's a treasure inside the water." Elaris pointed at the shiny object that was lying deep in the water.
Even with how dark it was, and the depth of the stream, it still couldn't hide the gleam of such a tremendous treasure.
"And something is waiting to kill you the moment you attempt to take it." Grey said, bringing the others back to reality.
Yes, there was a treasure lying there, but there was also something in the water that would not hesitate to take their lives.
"How many?" Elaris asked Grey.
"Three, all at the Peak of the Seventh Rank." Grey answered her question, which came as a surprise to her.
"I can deal with one, although troublesome, but not impossible. With your strength I know you can too, the others shouldn't have any problems with taking care of the last one." Grey didn't bother with Elaris' reaction as he gave the order in which they would be able to take what lay in the depth of the stream.
Elaris pouted as she didn't like the fact that Grey was the one giving the orders, but there was nothing she could do about it. Grey was the one who checked the water and knew how many opponents they had to face.
Other than herself and Grey, Brax, and Victor were also at the Peak of the Elemental Venerable Plane. They would have an even easier time than them when dealing with the beast hiding in the water.
Tens of lightning arrows appeared in the sky and shot into the water.
Grey wanted to see if he could force out the beasts inside.
His attack paid off as a large creature jumped out of the stream, its exceptionally large figure and green scales running through its entire body would make anyone doubt if they could ever break through its defense.
"Not again." Grey felt like crying.
