The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400 Anomaly Stable

Karl shook his head at the other group leader. "The Golems report that it is empty, no targets."

Then random items began flying out of the entrance to the anomaly.

"Hey Charles, is it a lottery machine? Just paying out after we beat the defenders?" One of the other team members called to their leader.

"How the hell should I know. Just look for valuables." Prince Charles laughed.

It was actually just the Golems throwing anything that looked valuable out of the anomaly. None of the team members wanted to risk going in, as Anomalies were known to close unexpectedly, and you could well be trapped inside indefinitely, but the Golems could just be dismissed if it started to close.

Everyone had to be attentive if they were going to sort the loot, though. The Golems were just throwing stuff out without looking at the exit, so if the next item out was a weapon or a chest of coins, you could take some real damage if it hit you.

There was a surprising amount of stuff coming flying out of that Anomaly, and Karl began to wonder what in the world was going on when the Golems reappeared, holding a large box between them and dragging a massive ogre corpse.

[Rae, I thought that there were no enemies inside.]

[No treats inside, just a smelly guy. He doesn't look tasty at all. They killed it once all the good stuff was gone.]

That sounded an awful lot like the final boss of a dungeon instance.

But it was a Commander Rank Ogre Lord, and he was wearing the mangled remains of a very fancy set of plate armour.

The other team began to strip him down, hoping that something could be salvaged, while Karl's team did their best not to laugh at Rae's attempt to look innocent.

Karl hadn't said anything out loud, but it was pretty clear that she had lied to him about what was inside the Anomaly.

While they were looting the Ogre Lord, the Anomaly shimmered, and turned red, then blue, before stabilizing into an oval portal.

"Did it just stabilize into a Dungeon entrance?" Prince Charles asked.

Karl turned to the clerics. If anyone knew, it would be them.

Both of the clerics with the other team were in white with gold trim, High Priests of the main branch, the healing specialists. They began to cast a spell, creating some sort of glowing barrier over the portal as they chanted and prayed.

It took about ten minutes before they were finished, and then the Clerics stood and smiled at them.

"It is now a stable low Commander Rank dungeon. There should be four Commander Rank bosses in the dungeon, while two thirds of the ogres are still Ascended. It should be stabilized now, and if it is, then the Ogres would be trapped inside. That also means that we got all of the ones that escaped after it formed. If there were any of them still wandering around, the Anomaly wouldn't have stabilized." One of the clerics, a man in his late twenties with his head shaved to hide a severely receding hairline, explained.

"Who do we call first?" Karl asked. This was the first time that he had been on a mission like this, but the last time he had found a system related thing, he contacted the Inquisition, who handled it all for him.

The Cleric pointed behind Karl, and the Magical Knights laughed.

Ruth nodded before replying. "He has a point. Normally, you call the Inquisition, and they send a team to secure the area, or one of the Elite security teams if we don't have an Inquisitor nearby. But we're already here.

I will call it in, and then we can let the Church's asset management teams move in." "That makes sense. I wonder how long it takes to reset after a team goes through?" Karl suggested.
