From MC's perspective:
The bear monster was injured from the spell attack. Then I released a few more spell attacks simultaneously to end the monster's life. After a few minutes, the bear monster succumbed due to injuries.
Then I collected the crystal gem from its head and stored it inside my storage bracelet. The process ended within minutes. Because I didn't want to waste my time by dragging the fight.
After finishing things, I resumed my work. I began to look for special structures around here. Each terrain has something. So I'm looking forward to finding the relics.
Time passed,
I have patiently watched for signs. But so far the place looks ordinary without any difference. Suddenly, I spotted something strange.
Now that I have realized the ground seems to be uneven at one particular place. This small change caught my attention. But before I could do something, I overheard people talking.
Seems like someone is coming in this direction.
"Someone is coming here," I muttered to myself. Then the next moment, I disappeared from the spot. And I appeared inside the Gregor Mansion.
The Gregor Mansion was a perfect place to hide and watch outside activities. I immediately went to the control room.
Where I had first accepted control of this mansion. Soon a big screen appeared showing the scenes outside. I walked up to the crystal ball and set the time flow rate to normal.
The Gregor Mansion has a lot of good functions. If I use it properly, I can reap a lot of benefits. Then after sorting everything, I set my gaze on the screen. Where I see one or two wizards appearing at the same spot.
Seeing them my expression becomes dignified. Because not only I can watch them but I can hear this conversation.
"Restrictions?"
"What restrictions?" My eyes gleamed with a twinkle.
Outside,
The two wizards are none other than the wizards from the dark league. Their motive is to activate the restrictions inside the ruin to reap benefits.
Right now, both wizards' faces were covered with masks. They wore black robes to hide their identity.
One of them suddenly took some kind of vertical artifact from his storage bracelet. Then he turned on the artifact and placed it on the ground.
The next moment, the vertical artifact starts drilling and disappeared into the ground.
Meanwhile,
I'm watching their actions. From their conversations, I see that they want to do something in this place. But what?
Out of curiosity, I continued to watch their movements.
Time passed in a blink of an eye.
One hour later,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMy expression turned cold watching the screen. Both the wizards are continuing their work. It hasn't been completed yet. But what I'm surprised about is their conversation.
In the past hour, they had talked a lot. And their identity was exposed as well. "Dark League," I mumbled under my breath.
I can tell that they didn't come after me. Their motive to enter the ruin is something different. But whatever it is, it's not good for people. They will do more harm than good.
Right now, I can feel that their actions will lead to something bad. From their conversation, I see that it has something to do with the restrictions.
Time goes on,
The drilling continues to happen. But the result is no way near. But the dark league wizards didn't show any signs of impatience.
The work continues till the next morning.
The following day,
Early morning,
From the Gregor mansion, I watched the whole process. When they stopped drilling, I thought it was over. I can now see what they are up to.
But unfortunately, one of them placed the same drilling artifact on the opposite side. Seeing that a hint of disappointment flashes in my eyes.
It would take another long hour for the process to end. I thought about capturing and investigating them. But from their actions, I see that they know what they are doing.
And whatever is inside the ground must be important to them. So I have decided to wait patiently and catch them later.
In the meantime, I can increase my strength through meditation. After leaving the door, I went to complete my morning routine.
Several minutes later,
I walked inside the room where the piles of mana stones were placed. Apart from the affinity mana stones, there were also normal ones.
After walking up to the middle, I sat cross-legged and began to run the mental method.
When I started to run the mental method. I quickly felt the changes. I attracted a lot more gravity mana particles than usual.
But it was not coming from the mana stones. Instead, it was the surroundings. My mouth curves into arcs. I expected the mana density inside the ruin to be different.
But due to my limit yesterday. I didn't use the mental method. Now, I got a good opportunity to see how fast I can absorb the gravity mana particles.
As the mana particles entered my body. I guided the energy according to the mental method. After circulation, the energy settles down inside the mana core.
I felt the process was a little faster than before. So I repeated the process.
Two hours later,
I opened my eyes after reaching the limit. A hint of amazement flashes in my eyes. Usually, it takes 3 hours to touch the limit back in the Academy environment.
But the mana inside the ruin is denser than I had previously thought. It saves me one hour time. But it's a pity the talent barrier comes again. I can't absorb more.
For the average wizard, it would take an entire day for them to see some progress. But here I'm completely different.
Then shaking my head, I pushed down these thoughts.
"System, show me the status panel," I said to the system.

[Title: Lord of Gregor Manson.]

A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Then my eyes immediately scanned the details. Seeing that there is no change in limit. I sighed inwardly.
It would be best if I can obtain the super relic again. Then my speed of practice would catch up with Lara White.
After pushing down these thoughts, I closed the status panel and got up from the ground. Then I went to the control room to see their progress.
The drilling artifact is moving currently. And both the dark league wizards seem to be patient as well.
Then I went to take a shower before changing back into new clothes.
A few hours later,
The drilling artifact stopped. Then one of the wizards removed the drilling artifact and poured some kind of dark substance into the holes.
Seeing the scene my expression turned solemn. I have wasted a lot of time seeing their actions. Let's see what they're up to now.
On the screen, I see the ground began to shake shortly after. And the two dark wizards retreated backward decisively.
After a few seconds, the ground collapsed and a massive cave structure appeared in sight. Then I spotted the damaged barrier. The black substance caused the barrier to corrode.
The barrier is one type of restriction. If it was lifted then these two can easily enter the cave structure then.
But seeing the barrier still somewhat intact. I want to see what they are going to do. My eyes flickered with a slight glint. I never expected to see a cave structure hiding beneath a normal-looking place.
After pushing down these thoughts, I set my gaze on these two wizards. One of the dark league wizards brought a disk-like magic artifact near the barrier.
Seeing that a look of understanding dawned upon me. These guys even brought this barrier-breaking disk to ruin. I have read about these artifacts in the library.
This magic product is mainly used by wizards proficient with formation. But these two guys are not formation wizards. Yet someone instead stored their magic spells in the disk.
The next moment, I saw them breaking the barrier. When the disk is activated the barrier starts to vibrate. Earlier the barrier was weakened by the dark substance.
Now it would be easy for them to break the barrier.
