<h4>Chapter 558 Ancient ruins (2)</h4>


    The merchant ship was only the beginning , the further the group walked the more sunken ships they found.


    Rudra did not want to waste time in Piging ships hence he avoided boarding on any of them and continued moving forward , however when the group reached a particrlyrge ship wreckage , they heard a sinisterugh .


    " Hehehehehe hehehehehe " .


    Instantly all weapons were drawn , however due to there being extremely limited visibility in the ancient ruins , the group was not able to discern enemy location.


    Thankfully they had Karna alongside them , who used his minds eyes to scan the terrain ahead , however he found no signs of life whatsoever.


    " No signs of life boss , can be the dead ". Karna said as Rudra nodded , his knowledge of game meta told him that in such ces the only two type of monsters could be pirate skeletons or pirate ghost souls.


    Since Karna did not find any pirate skeletons there must be ghosts in this ce.


    Movingpactly in formation the ten of them moved cautiously ahead untill out of nowhere a ghoul passed through Bo''s boddy sapping away 20% of his HP at once.


    Aughing noise could be heard , followed by multipleughing noises .


    The elites were in a den of ghosts !


    Bo started to shiver as he said " Cold..... The ghosts make you feel cold ".


    Naomi had already started casting healing on Bo however the groups situation looked grim . Every kind of ghost had a different weakness , however with most of the crew being physical attack experts a den of ghosts was the worst matchup possible.


    When the guild in Dronacharya''s timeline tried this ruin exploration they came in here with 50,000 strong numbers. However the den of ghosts alone brought that number down to 12,000.


    That was the danger this ce posessed and it was stupidity on Rudra''s part in trying to attempt an ruins exploration with a measly party of 10.


    A mistake whose cost he would realize very soon.


    Rudramanded " Guys shoot res , we need more vision here ".


    As 10 res were quickly shot up towards the cieling as the area was illuminated in a red hue.


    The ghosts wailed and screamed at the sudden increase in brightness , as their skins seemed to burn whening in contact with light.


    However the light brought a greater shock than releif to the elites as infront of themid tens of thousands of ghosts , looking like cut-throat pirates from a forgotten era , the ghosts had an intimidating presence and a murderous re.


    The way ahead was impossible to plough through , as the party realized that it was f*****.


    Rudra''s mind went into hyperdrive as he thought of the possible ways to get out of this bad situation.


    His mind thought of many things however all roads led back to sun god''s bracelet.


    Rudra was nning to use sr sh to create blinding lights to clear out the way ahead as the party charged through the ancient ruins.


    The sr sh needed 1/10 th of the sun god''s bracelets charge power , which meant it could be used 10 times after full charge , however the strongest move of the bracelet the sr beam , the only move Rudra could perform stably without recieving bacsh and still manage to damage tier 4 existances needed atleast 1/2 the bracelets charge .


    This meant that should Rudra use the sr sh for a sixth time he would need to say goodbye to his strongest move . However the distance they needed to cover was atleast 2 killometers , a sr sh onlysted 6 seconds . Even if the group could travel 80 meters in 6 seconds they would not even make it halfway in the ten charges that Rudra had.


    As the res started to dim , the group started to run out of time as Rudra needed to decide on what to do fast , if not wanting to be ghost food and since sr sh was not an option Rudra had only one move to rely on.


    Rudra said " when i say run , we run ".


    Using the sun god''s bracelet , Rudra summoned the only move that could potentially save them.


    " SOLAR DESCENT ! ".


    Rudra created a miniature sun at zing high temperature as sunlight obliterated the ghosts as if they were vampires.


    " RUN ".


    Rudramanded as he tried to push the descending sun as far away from his location as possible , killing thousands of ghouls every second.


    The problem with sr descent was that Rudra could not just hold the sun like it was amp , it was too heavy and extremely difficult to control , hence the best he could do was to guide it''s descent to a reasonable location.


    The elites ran like there was no tommorow , as everyone disyed their top speed.


    The fastest was SMG followed by Neatwit , while the slowest was Naomi . However thankfully for her thest runner behind her watching her back was her boyfriend Rudra , as he swept her into his arms and picked up the stride.


    Naomi could only hangonto his chest tightly as she did not realize that within ten breaths they became the leaders of the group from the tail enders , as Rudra''s pace was iparable for even an assassin like SMG.


    Rudra''s golden ratio only got better and better with every level up he got , as the difference between him and the average yer only increased .


    It was for this reason that the golden ratio was an ultimate cheat in Omega , as no other ss or no other skill had such profound benefits on one''s basics like this passive skill.


    Not to mention running with Yume all his stats were 15% buffed just by being around him , making his monstrous power even more powerful.


    Rudra did not realize however through his little trick and a lot of luck he had killed tens of thousands of level 200 ghosts. The exp he was going to recieve after the group was out of danger was nothing short of astronomical as it was to greatly aid his cause of reaching tier 4.
