    Chapter 1768


    Imprisoned at the bottom, appeared to be a strong, long-haired, ape-like creature…


    “…What’s down there, Brother Gerald?” asked Ray in a whispery voice.


    Looking at them, Gerald then quietly signaled for them toe over to have a look for themselves.


    Seeing that, the other members of Gerald’s party then crept over before peering down as well.

    Looking at Old Flint, Gerald then asked, “…Do you have any idea what that is, Old Flint…?”


    After seemingly thinking for a while, Old Flint then replied, “…If my eyes do not deceive me, that should


    be a ck gibbon. I recall a tale about the vampires raising a ck gibbon and using it to help them


    catch humans… Perhaps this is the one!”


    As Gerald’s eyes widened, Ray quickly said, “Then… this ck gibbon must be a fierce beast! It’s best


    that we keep it locked under the tform!”


    True enough, such a vicious ck gibbon couldn’t be allowed to run free. Otherwise, it would surely


    spell trouble! Unfortunately, Ray had said that a bit toote.


    After all, the beast had long broken free of its chains, and it had simply been trapped beneath the round


    tform for the longest time. Now that the tform was finally open, however, it naturally wanted to


    escape.


    With that in mind, the second Ray’s sentence ended, an ear-piercing roar could be heard! A split


    secondter, the ck gibbon leaped right out from the bottom of the tform that was at least a few


    meters high! What superior jumping capabilities!


    Seeing that, Gerald and the others instantly backed away as they vigntly stared into the eyes of the


    beast. The gibbon itself stared back at each of them before beating its chest!


    Before anyone could react, the beast bolted right out of the chamber, disappearing from view!


    Since it hadn’t attacked them, all of them found themselves feeling slightly confused. Then again, they


    weren’tining. After all, at the very least, they now had one less problem to worry about…


    “…Alright, we need to start looking for the exit. We shouldn’t stay here any longer!” dered Gerald.


    After all, who knows what other dangers they would face here.


    While it was true that the gibbon and spiders hadn’t chosen to attack them, it didn’t mean that there


    weren’t any other threats down here. Gerald himself believed that they shouldn’t push their luck by


    staying down here for any longer…


    Regardless, after hearing that, Ray, Juno, and Nori readily agreed. After all, they had all been eager to


    leave this ce for a while now. Old Flint himself simply agreed calmly. After all, being used to such


    situations, fear was thest thing on his mind.


    Whatever the case was, Gerald and the others then began looking for the exit…


    Instead of an exit, however, the party soon bumped into what appeared to be the entrance of another


    chamber…


    Upon entering, they were instantly greeted by the sight of a sandalwood casket decorated with gold


    trims… The casket itself was suspended a few meters above the ground by four chains that held onto


    its corners…


    “My god! I never imagined all this to be within a mountain! What a massive ce!” eximed Ray, his


    eyes widened. For Ray, this entire trip had been incredible, and nearly everything that had happened


    had amazed him…


    Old Flint himself slowly walked to the bottom of the casket. After examining it for a while, his voice


    almost sounded emotional as he muttered, “This… This must be where the vampires buried their


    ancestors…! This casket must have belonged to the first ancestor of the vampires…!”


    “What? But that means this casket must have been here for thousands of years!” eximed Gerald.
