Chapter 572  Castiel\'s First inheritance (final part)

"What makes you think so?" One of the two researchers couldn\'t help but ask.

"The beasts always seem to be coming from behind, but never in front." Castiel\'s explanation made them recall all the beast attacks that had taken place.

Although they were in a dangerous situation, Castiel didn\'t forget that these were his employers, so he continued being polite as he spoke. "Can you turn on the tracking device, We need to know when and where these are coming from."

"Alright." One of the researchers agreed and took out the tracking device from his dimensional amulet.

"The device is detecting a high energy source from the area in front!" The researcher was shocked by this discovery.

"That must be what the beasts are attracted to!" The 2nd researcher said with gleaming eyes.

"We should leave this place at once!" Castiel and Brian didn\'t share the same level of enthusiasm as the researchers.

"Why?" The researchers asked as if they were looking at mad men.

"The energy source is attracting beasts all over the area; this place would be swarmed with beasts in no time!" Castiel replied.

"We can\'t leave!" The 1st researcher said with a frown. "This is an unknown phenomenon that attracts beasts. This is part of our research!"

Castiel was getting pissed off by the researchers. "I am sorry, but being alive is better than exploring a phenomenon that we wouldn\'t live to tell the tale!"

"According to our agreement, you are meant to protect us for 48 hours of our research. This is part of our research, and you have to comply." The 2nd researcher threatened.

Being put between a rock and a hard place, Castiel turned to Brian and asked. "What should we do?"

Before speaking, Brian took out a recorder. "We will protect you, but note that the area ahead is too dangerous for us to guarantee your safety. Do you still want to proceed?"

Seeing that the matter was being taken very seriously, the two researchers had to pause and discuss the matter with each other.

After 2 minutes of speaking in hushed tones, the researchers finally turned to them and spoke. "We choose to proceed."

\'Idiots!\' Castiel shook his head as he felt like smacking their heads.

Seeing that they had made the worst decision, Castiel had no other option than to begin making preparations for the worst scenario.

He took a look at the device to check the position of the energy source as well as the beasts in the area. After that, he instructed everyone to stay close to him at all times before activating darkbringer on everyone.

He planned to make a beeline for the energy source and leave as soon as possible.

The group quickly set out in the direction of the energy source. On their way, they met different beasts but thanks to darkbringer and Brian erasing their footprints on the sand, they remained unnoticed.

After 20 minutes of walking, dilapidated buildings, half buried in the yellow sands of the desert came into view.

Five minutes later the group saw that an area around a particular building at the far end was on fire. This made the researchers happy for a moment, but they soon saw quite a number of beasts around the area.

"It definitely got hotter." Brian said as he was now sweating.

Immediately, Castiel understood what was going on and spoke in an enlightened tone. "The energy source is not only the source of the heat, but it produces a high fire mana density. Now it makes sense why all these are coming here."

 "It doesn\'t explain why the beasts are so few." Brian was confused because he had seen a lot of places with high mana density, and they were usually packed with a lot of beasts. At least twice the number of those present.

The researchers immediately glared at him as if they were looking at mad man. \'Why are you praying for our deaths!\'

Having understood what was going on, the group continued moving forward. The closer they got the hotter it became, forcing Brian to constantly release water around them to cool them off.

On nearing the building with flames, they noticed that both the beasts weren\'t moving past a certain distance even though they could withstand the heat.

In fact, such a level of heat was the perfect thing to refine their hard armours, but they were not moving further.

"Something is definitely up!" Castiel said, but the researchers acted ignorant and urged them to move forward.

Steering clear of the flames, they made their way into the stone building. The entire building was almost buried under sand, all that was left was the entrance which was now filled with liquid sand due to the intense heat.

"That should be the cause of all this." Brian pointed as he was now sweating bullets even with the cooling.

"How do we contain it?" The 1st researcher asked the other researcher as they set their eyes on the orange glowing crystal at the far end of the room.

"How do we touch it, talk less of contain?" The 2nd researcher asked.

This greatly annoyed Castiel because Brian was constantly expending mana to cool the floor that they stood on.

"By the time I get it and come back, you guys better have a way to contain it." Castiel was angry at the selfish researchers who cared only about the energy source.

Conjuring solid flames on his feet, Castiel made his way to the glowing orange crystal and inspected it before grabbing it.

AH!

Immediately his hand came in contact with the crystal, Castiel felt intense heat on his hand, but before he could let go the instantly heat spread to his entire body.
