Chapter 62 Discovering An Ancient Civilization?

?"Puah!"

*Splash*

Nathan arrived at the part where the water was being hindered from going further by unknown means.

He left the water and made splashes of water around him.

"Ooh, that was refreshing!" he said, feeling comfortable.

He shook his body a little and got rid of the droplets of water on his body before he took out his clothes from the storage and wore them.

Once that was done, he raised his head up and looked at the path ahead.

With excitement coursing through his body, Nathan said, "Now, my exploration begins!"

He moved forward, staring straight ahead with expectation on what's about to come.

Soon, he was able to see the tower from far away.

Since it's the most magnificent structure in this place for Nathan, that is the first destination.

Unlike before, where he needs to hurry, this time, Nathan took a look at his surroundings leisurely.

Because of that, he discovered quite a lot of things that piqued his interest.

Just like the plaza that, from the traces he can see, was once a very bustling place before.

There was also a small building with a sign, 'Alchemy Guild', nearby the plaza.

The sign was written in the same writing system as the one inside the tower, but for some reason, Nathan was able to read it.

And that incident made Nathan wonder.

"This is probably the effects brought by that Language Proficiency… I did not expect that it would let me read this unknown writings…" he thoughtfully said,

Nathan planned to take a look at that alchemy guild later.

For now, he wants to see what the tower really is.

A few minutes later, Nathan arrived outside the tower.

He paused for a while, and slowly tilted his upwards to look at the whole view of the tower.

"Whoaaa…" he involuntarily let out an exclamation as he truly felt the magnificence of this building.

And also, there was something that Nathan only noticed this time.

It was that the tower actually exudes an aura that seems ancient to him. That aura gives off some pressure to whoever looks at this mighty.

"This tower really gives off some incredible vibes." muttered Nathan.

After looking at it for a while, Nathan continued moving forward, entering the tower.

When you enter, you will immediately see stairs on the right side near the entrance.

It seems like this is used by the people to go up into the higher parts of the tower.

"It would be nice if they had elevators. But, this place seems so ancient so I can't be asking for what they don't have, right?" said Nathan,

A while later, the wall full of writings came into his view.

Walking near it, Nathan started reading.

After reading a small part of the text on the wall, Nathan understood that what was written here is a record of a civilization.

And that fact made him pause, as his eyes widened in shock!

Then, a suspicious look appeared on his face.

Looking around, he said, "If there was a civilization here… why was it not discovered?"

Just as those words came out of his mouth, the image of the water being "blocked" at the pathway appeared on his head.

His eyes immediately lit up, "That's right!" He said, "I almost forgot that this was a civilization that has magical things like the seed of Miracle Tree, Tree Spirits seeds, as well as that water inside the glass bottle, although I don't know what it is, but for it to be hidden along with the Miracle Tree seed, it must be something special."

When thinking of those, Nathan nodded his head, "Yeah, for sure there's something like a barrier here that hides it from people."

But he suddenly paused, and a new question surfaced if that really is the case.

"... Then, how was I able to come in here? Was it because of the Miracle Tree seed?"

Nathan might not know how he was able to come in, but he can make a rough guess to it.

His obvious guess was the Miracle Tree seed, of course.

To begin with, he was only able to find this place because the seed's power keeps on 'tugging' him toward it.

"Since that was the case, it probably has a pretty significant role in this civilization, hmm.."

Nathan stopped thinking about it and threw it at the back of his head.

Looking on the wall for a while, Nathan turned around and sighed, "I'll read that some other time. For now, I want to search if there are more things that are beneficial to me here."

Saying that, he turned his gaze into the stairways heading up.

With curiosity in his face, he said, "I wonder what this place looks like at the top of the tower."

When those thoughts appear in his head, Nathan can't get rid of it anymore.

In the end, he decided to climb it.

*Tap Tap Tap*

Nathan's footsteps echo on the stairways.

With no other sounds around, every step he takes feels so loud.

As he ran up, even with Nathan's physique he still ended up out of breath.

"Haa… haa… haa…"

He leaned on the side to rest for a while and catch his breath.

"Haa.. Haa… I'm too haa… stupid." He took a deep breath and calmed his wildly beating heart.

Once he regulated his breathing back to normal, he continued, "I was too impulsive to climb up here. Should have expected this happening just from the height of the tower."

He shook his head regretfully.

Nathan meditated for a while whether he should continue this or stop and climb down.

But after thinking for a while, he stood up and shook his head while sighing,

"Hais… I can't just back out now after climbing this high. It would be such a waste of effort."

Nathan then continued climbing.

While running, he tried to keep his rhythm so that he wouldn't get exhausted immediately.

And after a few more rest here and there, Nathan finally saw the end of the stairs!
