198 We have company

Somewhere around the border between the outer perimeter and central regions, a man just appeared out of nowhere. His clothes were quite ragged, and it was evident that he had passed through a hard time. His name was Gelius, the black-clothed man that was pursuing Uriu Orion back then.

"Fuck! That ant, when I find him, I will suck his life energy dry!"

He had a lot of difficulties to leave that trap left by the owner of this place a long time ago. Only after over a week of effort did he finally escape its range. He knew that Uriu was guiding into that place. Still, he thought that even if he followed Uriu inside, he would be able to deal with it easily. Unfortunately for him, he had underestimated Uriu's plans and the prowess of the trap formation.

But now that he is outside, he immediately dashed to the inner core region direction at full speed. He wasn't even afraid of alarming the beasts on the way. Anyone who tried to block him died!
