"Over there!" Auron pointed out at their eleven o'clock direction .

It was a big vast place with building rubble all over the areas . The place was as wide as a city . It was actually an ancient city .

Long ago, the city was prosperous and magnificent . It was one of the top cities in the kingdom back then . However, one day, due to some unknown reason, the people inside the city suddenly gone .

The kingdom had sent their people to investigate, but there was no clue at all . What's more, the kingdom had sent some people to live in that city for a while . Unfortunately, the people that were sent there also gone missing .

What made it weirder was that there were no screams or struggles when the people went missing . Moreover, the missing case only happened when a person stayed overnight inside the city . If someone remained outside the city, then he would be safe .

That was why no one wanted to stay near the city . And, the city got a nickname, Cursed City .

With no one wanted to manage the city, slowly, the city deteriorated . Moreover, an earthquake had happened in the past and destroyed the city . The building started to collapse . Of course, there wasn't any victim since no one lives there .

One year ago, the king had thought about revitalizing the city . The place was vast, but it was abandoned . It would be a massive loss for the kingdom .

The first step to revitalize the city was to investigate what caused the person who stayed in that city gone missing .  After a long preparation, they had decided to revitalize the city starting this month .

However, due to the instability in the Bridge World and also the demonic monster appearance, the plan was postponed indefinitely .

But, all of it only what the NPC all this time had known . When Auron stepped inside the city, several notifications appeared .

[You have entered the Cursed City]

[A dark and mysterious power watching all of your actions]

[You have 06:10:20 to get out from this place]

[If you don't get out in time, you will suffer a mysterious death . The death penalty will be doubled]

A countdown timer showed in front of Auron . There were 6 hours left for him to leave the city . As the notification had stated, if a player didn't get out in time, then they would immediately die and sent back to the resurrection point . Moreover, they would lose two levels because of the death penalty .

Even for high leveled players or the maxed leveled players, they would also die when they could not get out in time . At first, the players didn't know about this and tried to experience this .

However, the result, all of the players had died a mysterious death and lose two levels each . Some of the players believed that there would be a great reward for someone who could unveil the mystery . A lot of players tried to get that rewards .

However, a lot of players also failed . They found nothing at all . Several guilds had sent their man and found nothing . Slowly the number of players lingering the area decreased . It was because they were only wasting their time . There were no monsters around here or anything extraordinary . All the players started to leave this place, and slowly this place became abandoned once again .

Actually, the players found something . They had discovered some truth about the places . For example, the countdown was a countdown to midnight . So, the extermination would be running at midnight .

The players could leave the city for a while before midnight and entered again after midnight had passed . When they entered once again, they would not get the punishment, and the countdown would show a slightly less than 24 hours .

Also, some players who were experiencing the mysterious death testified that when the countdown went zero, their surroundings became dark and black as if they were in a room without any source of light . A second later, they had come back at their resurrection point and lose two levels as well as two equipment .

However, when they tried to look back for their equipment, they found nothing as if the equipment vaporated .

Some players had tried to inform the NPC about what they found . However, it was futile . After they finished told what they knew, the NPC's expression went blank, and their memory had been reset . Because of that, the information only shared between the players .

Semial and Remus followed Auron inside the city . They also had heard about the rumor and felt scared . However, they had no choice and trusted Auron .

Meanwhile, the bandits also hesitated for a bit before the leader among them shouted, "Chase them! Don't let them escape . "

The archer shot out several arrows . However, it was challenging to hit Auron and his groups . The building rubble here served as a natural defense for Auron and co .

The bandit's leader gave a sign to his other group's members . He told them to separate and used a three-pronged attack on Auron .

The bandits did as what they told . They separated into three groups with the leader and the archer in one group .

Auron looked behind him and saw the bandits separated . He knew what they were gonna did . "What should I do?" Auron was thinking hard .

In front of him, there was a big building . The building was located at the center of the city and stood firm amidst the building rubble . Although it was still standing, however, the condition also not that good . The roof had been missing while there were cracked everywhere on the wall . Also, the top floor was destroyed .

Back then, this building was the city's town hall . The first floor was used for city gatherings and announcements . Meanwhile, the second floor served as the city governor's workplace as well as a meeting place with important people .

Auron gave a sign to Semial and Remus to enter the building . After they entered the building, Auron immediately blocked the entrance with an [Earth Wall] .
