Looking into Faxul's eyes, Daneel waited as his friend understood everything and nodded helplessly.

These were the ancestral grounds of his Kingdom which they had been able to access through him, but he had no option but to wait outside because he was too weak.

Without saying anything, he teleported back up, beginning the timer.

Seeing his friend leave, Daneel sighed knowing how it felt to always be weaker than one's enemies. For the longest time, he had been feeling the same thing, and he was frankly sick of it. Even though it was better now that he had gotten to the Exalted Human Mage level, he knew that he was still leagues away from his true opponents, the Church, which definitely had Champion level individuals, if not those even higher.

Yet, with the system and time, he knew that he could triumph over them all.

"System, begin a sweep of the entire area by teleporting underground. Keep an eye out for danger, and make sure I return here before 2 hours pa.s.s."

This was his method of safe surveillance: Daneel could surveil an area 1 Kilometer in any direction around him. Hence, by teleporting underground in a grid which covered the entire area, he would be able to gather all the information about it.

Of course, this also meant that he would not be able to see anything. The system was the one surveilling, so all he could do was keep being teleported to cave after cave while allowing the system to deploy all the spells necessary.

There were still 3 hours till all the soldiers had to verify their ident.i.ties, so Daneel's plan was to get this over in two.

Closing his eyes, he let the system take over as he relaxed while keeping an eye on the efficient deployment of spells by the system.

80 minutes later.

[Surveillance complete.]

Hearing the notification, Daneel roused himself and looked around, seeing that he had arrived back at the location where he and Faxul had parted ways.

Knowing that his friend would come sooner or later to pick him up, he asked the system to give the main information about the area.

[Total area: Around 4300 km2

Fertile Land Being Used: 2000 km2

Fertile Land Not Being Used: 1000 km2

Dead Land: 1000 km2

Unused Land: 1000 km2

Land used for other purposes: 300 km2

Crops Planted: Unknown. Similar to some which increase Fighter Level in database, but no exact match found.

The land is used in a revolving basis. When half of it is used to plant the crops, the other half is left alone to rejuvenate.

Other purpose: A breeding ground has been found where Raven eggs are submerged in a solution made out of the crops.

Additional Point of Interest: Natural Energized Training Chamber found.]

Although the rest of the information was shocking in its own right, the last sentence made his jaw drop.

A Natural Energized Training Chamber?!

The only object that had been cla.s.sified as a "treasure" by the system since he had transmigrated into this world??!!

Daneel couldn't believe his ears. Yet, on asking the system again, he confirmed that it was true.

After finding out that there were still 8 minutes for Faxul to arrive, he said, "Take me to the location under the Chamber."

After waiting for a few moments, he teleported to the cave while a current of air materialized in front of him to allow him to breathe.

"Are there any hidden traps in the area near it? And is anyone here?"

[Affirmative. Formation and trinket traps which are above the complexity of the system have been identified. There are no individuals near the area, and the location seems to be cordoned off. The chamber has also been disguised, but system was able to identify it as host is in possession of a similar treasure.]

Disappointed, Daneel knew that it was too risky to carry out his initial plan of checking out the chamber to find clues about the one using it.

As for the ident.i.ty of the individual, it was quite clearly the old man, as he was the only one in the entire Kingdom who even had the chance of being someone powerful enough to place trinkets and formations with complexity higher than what the system could a.n.a.lyze.

As he was pondering about the implications of this discovery, he remembered the latest information about the Black Raven Kingdom which detailed that it was desperately searching for Ker Gems or Ker Gem mines.

Adding two and two together, it was quite obvious that the old man was in need of energy for some reason.

Without the discovery of this chamber, Daneel wouldn't have been able to make this deduction as the information could also mean that they were simply trying to refill their treasury.

Noticing that it was getting close to the time when Faxul would arrive, Daneel teleported back to the initial location while still having his brows scrunched up because of all the plans that were swiveling in his head.

After a few seconds, the half-hour mark came and went with no sign of Faxul.

Thinking that he could simply have counted the time wrong, Daneel waited for another few minutes before starting to panic slightly.

Had he been compromised? Was there a problem with the formation?

Even as questions like these came into his mind, the possibility that he was trapped in here affected him more, making him hope that none of them were true.

Minute after minute pa.s.sed, with Daneel growing more and more frantic.

Finally, 20 minutes after the time he was supposed to come, Faxul finally appeared near Daneel, making him jump with shock due to his agitated nerves before sighing with relief.

Yet, seeing the weird expression on Faxul's face, Daneel realized that something was wrong.

"Come with me. I found something."

Saying these words, Faxul walked forward and caught Daneel's shoulder, teleporting both of them out of the Ancestral Grounds.
