  Krrrrrrr

  The formation broke, and Sarah pushed open the door of the final sanctum with her gloved hand.

  We had taken everything we could from the final sanctum, and the only thing that remained were the murals. I really wish I could take those away and stick them in my home; they are really beautiful, and whoever made them must be a true artist.

  Step Step!

  We stepped out of the final sanctum back into the fourth floor, the garden. A place which is more dangerous than the final sanctum, and even with all the advancement I have received in the past day, all the hair on my body still rose whenever the feeling I am getting in this place.

  "This garden had few of the plants that Jim needs," Sarah said without looking and stepped inside the garden.

  "Be careful," I cautioned, even with her phenomenal advancement; there are still some things here that have the power to kill us. I hope she remains cautious and does not get lost in high of her recent advancement.

  She had just taken a few steps into the garden, carefully avoiding traps, when the attack came. It came in the form of small tiny white petals; they were the size of my thumb and looked very delicate but extremly sharp and fast; they appeared beside Sarah in an instant.

  I was ready to step in when her totem artifact appeared in her hand, and it had changed.

  It is still a claymore and has about the same length but a little wider blade and has the design of green vines which sharp red thorns across. It looked beautiful as it is dangerous.

  TINNNG

  As the sword appeared, it moved and soon struct across the first petal; as it did, it did not feel like a sword clashing against a delicate petal, which would barely make any sound but clashing against a Warhammer, seeing the sound it and shockwave it created.

  Thankfully, there are formations here that quickly absorb them as they are produced; otherwise, they would really be damaged some of those delicate plants.

  TINNNG TINNNG TINNNG

  Right after she dealt with the first petal, it moved toward the second petal and then the third, and so on. Her strike was precious and did not have more power than it needed to look. Looking at her mastery, one would not believe she had just leveled up a few hours ago.

  While she dealt with the petals, I moved my strings to catch them before they returned to the flower.

  These petals belong to the hasda flower, a very precious flower with various uses. Hasda flower could not be plucked. If one tried, the whole flower would burn to ashes; the only way one would be able to harvest it was when one attacked, and since it attacked, I have no qualms about harvesting it.

  Sarah began to walk again as she dealt with the petals, and I have harvested them.

  She had just taken a few steps, and when two more plants have attacked us; three vines came at her, and at the same time, a flower burrowed out of the ground and released an extremly strong poison at Sarah; the poison was at the level of the High Grandmaster.

  This time, I did not wait and see what Sarah did; I could not take any risk when it came to attacks of the High Grandmaster level, especially insidious ones like poison. Which, if affected, could bring out a dire consequence.

  CLANNG CLANNG CLANNG

  While Sarah moved her sword to deal with the vines, my invisible vines released hidden mist, which began to destroy the poison.

  Neutralizing poison is one of the first things Marina had taught me, and I have done great research on it since the Grimm poison masters are terrors. So, even when the poison of the plant is level higher, I am able to deal with it.

  Sarah turned and gave me a look as she dealt with the vines, and soon, she reached the plant after dealing with another attack and touched its inviable protection with her gloved hand.

  A few seconds later, the formation came out; I quickly scanned it and began to solve it with all my focus. I have to solve the formation quickly as possible; I should not take more than one hour as it is not the plant I want to get from this garden.

  Five days passed since we came down to the garden; since then, we have constantly harvesting the plants inside.

  These plants are extremly precious, and it would be great regret if we leave them like that. The only regret I have about the whole thing is that I had to share everything half with Sarah while most of the work was being done by me, and the only thing she was doing was bringing out the formation.

  It seemed like I had to get my hands on one of these artifacts.

  The best option is to ask the pyramid for it, as finding it in the ruin would require huge luck. Though getting such a thing from the pyramid would not be easy considering their value, I think I might be able to get it if I pressed hard enough.

  "I think we have got enough; we should get out now," I said after I harvested the roots and packed the boxes.

  We have harvested everything we needed from this garden, even though we have barely taken 10% of the resources in the garden, and I would have liked to continue for some more; unfortunately, I did not have time.

  Due to this constraint of time, I had to leave many resources.

  I hope a time comes when I won't have to be constrained by time and will harvest every resource site to my satisfaction.

  Krrrr!

  Sarah did not say anything, just walked to the door and pushed against it, and a few seconds later, it began to open.

  I had solved the formation on the door the first day we came down here; I wanted to have a clear way out if something unforeseen happened. Thankfully nothing happened; though the garden was dangerous, we were able to handle it with our strength.
