Leaving the room filled with mystic runes and housing the Eternal Sleepers' magical devices, there were two paths.
One path was the one Bard took to descend, connecting the upper and middle sections through a sloping ramp, while the other path continued forward, reaching deep into the Dark Chaos.
Standing at the corridor leading deeper, Gawain slightly focused his mind to sense the magic distribution in the surrounding environment.
The subtle energy field enveloping the Sorinburg region still existed here, with continuous life force emanating from the tree's roots, as if someone was endlessly casting healing spells, affecting all organic matter within range and even making Gawain feel slightly invigorated.
Apart from this energy field, he sensed no other threatening presence.
The exploration team that descended alongside Gawain gathered behind him, and the squad leader quickly issued orders, "Groups of five, form a 1-2-2 exploration formation, proceed cautiously."
