Following the direction of Penelope’s finger, Leo Ray noticed.

His gaze passed over the low wooden fence and between the dense green jungle, he could faintly see some mottled stone buildings.

Besides, he could clearly sense the hidden surges of energy echoing back and forth within.

“I didn’t expect it to be this close.”

Seeing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but think to himself: “No wonder Penelope ventured into the ruins on the first day. The ruins were probably just a few steps away from the protective shield; it would have been hard not to notice.”

As he felt the undeniable increase in heat compared to the Demonic Shadow Forest, Leo Ray furrowed his brows slightly.

Then, with a shift in focus, a surge of energy rolled out from his abdomen, wrapping over the surface of his body.

A moment later, with the regulation of the internal energy, the temperature around Leo Ray decreased again.

“Jasper, you can come out now.” After stabilizing his mind a little, Leo Ray once again initiated Mind Talk, addressing the half-elf ancestor inside his bracelet.

In an instant, a petite and exquisite figure slowly appeared amidst the dazzling seven-colored light, under the astonished and incredulous gaze of Penelope and Aurora.

“Lord, I pay my respects!” After bowing to Leo Ray, Jasper’s pointy ears twitched slightly, indicating that she was sensing something.

Almost immediately, a hint of delight appeared on her childish face, and she excitedly told Leo Ray, “Lord, this really is an ancient ruin left by the Elf Tribe!”

On the other side, Aurora came over to Penelope again, whispering worriedly with furrowed brows, “Lord, I wholeheartedly believe that Master Leo is a ne’er-do-well!

In our group, we have not only a werewolf tribe’s “beast-eared” girl, twins, a maid, but also a half-elf! You have to be careful!”

“Yeah, yeah!”

The wheat-skinned female subordinate, who looked a bit younger, also chimed in, “That half-elf that suddenly appeared, she seems even younger than us!”

“Aurora, Lana, if you two don’t stop talking nonsense, there will be no dinner for you tonight.”

Penelope shook her head helplessly as the two subordinates performed what they thought to be a fearsome dragon roar.

“Alright, we will stop talking.”

Aurora, with her wand in hand and cute wheat-skinned nose crinkled, went on, “But Lord, since we’re exploring the ruins, shouldn’t we discuss the distribution of spoils with that unscrupulous lord…no, Master Leo?”

“Lord, Aurora is right.”

Lana, who appeared to be younger, around eighteen or nineteen years old, added her agreement.

“But…” Hesitating for a moment, Penelope lowered her voice even more, “So how should we distribute?”

On the other side, Aurora and Lana, both with wheat-colored skin, looked at each other, then made a gesture meaning “two” towards Penelope.

“Two plus two equals four, are you saying a forty-sixty split?!” Seeing this, Penelope couldn’t help but swallow, finding it hard to believe.

“Lord, it’s an eighty-twenty split: we get twenty, Master Leo gets eighty.”

Hearing Penelope Welbourn’s considerably louder voice, Aurora panickedly made a “shush” motion and lowered her voice.

Meanwhile, Lana, who was beside her, also hurriedly nodded along.

“Just looking at the combat abilities, we don’t even have 1% of it, will Master Leo agree with this?”

After pondering for a moment, Penelope subconsciously rubbed her hands together, revealing a somewhat hesitant expression on her face.

At this point, a soft voice seeped into the trio’s ears, “Proceed as you suggested, however, the Tears of Elves I need, are not included in this scope.”

Without a doubt, it was Leo Ray who spoke. Now that he has ascended to the Tier Third, his heightened senses could easily pick up the whispers from Penelope and the other two not far away.

“Then we are much obliged, Master Leo!”

On the other side, while feeling slightly embarrassed, Penelope Welbourn, who was rubbing her fingers white, immediately showed an excited expression on her lovely face, and repeatedly said thanks.

Without question, not only could she resolved the crisis that the ancient ruins posed, she could also get 20% of the spoils of war, excluding the items that Master Leo was after!

One must know that the chance to explore ruins together with Master Leo and gain something out of it was something she dared not dream of the day before!

And so, not very long afterwards, Leo Ray and his team of ten, along with Penelope and the two female subordinates named Aurora and Lana, showed up at the front gate of the ancient ruins.

At that moment, Leo Ray’s gaze first landed on Penelope and the other two at the back of their group.

Penelope and the younger Lana were both holding sharp wooden spears, while Aurora, who was Tier Second, was still holding a Tier 1 wooden magic wand.

“Penelope’s strength is roughly around Tier 1, three-star level. There’s also faint magic power being emitted from her body. She seems to have successfully condensed a Magic Energy Vortex.”

“Her sole Tier Two Subordinate, Aurora, has a strength approximately at the Tier 2, five-star level. It seems that she was the one who predicted the major catastrophe. As for the petite Lana, her strength is probably around the Tier 1, six to seven-star level. She’s quite impressive as well.”

Seeing this, Leo Ray narrowed his eyes slightly and focused his attention back on the ruins in front of them.

Examining closely, this ruin hidden in the dense forest emanates a sense of mystery.

Amidst the chirping and rustling, the green vines and tress, intertwined with mottled stones, bore witness to the weather-worn ages.

Moreover, in the depths of the ruins, one could vaguely see green plants wrapped around crumbling ruins as if silently narrating a long story of their past glory.

“Lord, this is indeed an ancient ruin of the Elf Tribe.” Jasper Richardson said.

Stepping lightly, Jasper Richardson stood in front of a broken stone pillar, gently swept aside the vines and leaves, revealing a blurred, mottled stone carving, “This is the unique carving style of the Elf Tribe. Judging by the degree of decay, it has been abandoned for at least a few thousand years. Back then, this place must have been a bustling and majestic Elf City.”

“I see, I wonder why such a remarkable city was eventually abandoned and declined to this extent?” Leo Ray mused.

After a thought, Leo Ray nodded to his other subordinates and Penelope, etc., and said, “Alright, everyone remain alert, let’s keep moving forward.” “Wait, Lord, something seems to be off…”

Just then, Bianca White, who has a keen sense of smell, twitched her fluffy upright ears, then lifted her tail, lay on the ground, and began to sniff..
