章節 222: Silence

In the end, a total of 71 Ascenders had died that day.

Many more were severely injured, but they had survived.

When Dilan returned to their new base, he didn't say a word.

He stayed silent and ignored the gazes that lingered on him.

Most Survivors had heard of the tragedy that had befallen their comrades, and almost all of them couldn't believe that their strong protectors were no more to save them.

It may not be difficult to become an Ascender, but the 71 Ascenders, who had died, had been special. They were Tier-1 Ascenders, most with Rare occupations at that.

Their strength had been a force to reckon with, yet, they had died... just like that…

Instead of a great opportunity, the Pagoda of Time had now turned into an emblem of danger and death to the Survivors. They swore to stay away from it as far as possible and to never approach it if it was not necessary.
