Chương 990: Shrine [2]

Elena opened her eyes to a world of blackish-grey, almost ash-colored rock.

It was relatively flat, to the point where she could see the curve of the planet on the horizon, but there was a scarce amount of erected stone pillars and other structures formed over years of weathering.

As she stood there, Elena was forced to wonder:

'What does this have to do with the Transcended Death Shrine?'

Her expression was solemn as she walked through the dark world and tried to understand it.

'It isn't safe to leave my body alone in that unknown place. I need to get back as soon as possible, or I'll likely lose it forever.'

She remembered the prostrated figures she saw around the shrine and shuddered as she thought about ending up like them.

If they were her prospective future, her current situation was the cause of their strange deaths.
