Green saw the images sent back and silently congratulated himself on the decision he had just made.
If he hadn't quit while he was ahead, the man sent by the Sky God would certainly have trapped him inside the ruins. Green didn't know exactly what lay within, and it might not have been a dead end, but he could imagine the dangers at every turn. Hunted by a veteran Saint Spirit Rank powerhouse... he didn't dare picture it!
Worse, that Saint Spirit Rank powerhouse was a follower of a True God. It would not have been a pleasant experience.
Most importantly, once the man had his sights on Green, even if Green escaped this time, his identity would be exposed.
Then he would be on the Sky God's blacklist. Next time, the Sky God might well come for him in person.
Just thinking about being marked by a Deity made his scalp prickle.
"Phew..."
Green let out a long breath, then sent Grand Duke Mora a Magic Message. He said that something unexpected had happened: a suspected Saint Spirit Rank powerhouse had entered the ruins. For safety's sake, Green had chosen to give up, and he hoped the grand duke would understand.
As for whether Grand Duke Mora would listen to his explanation or understand his position, Green wasn't worried.
So far, he and Grand Duke Mora were merely partners. Green was not the grand duke's subordinate. Even though Grand Duke Mora had advanced to Saint Spirit Rank and Green was at a disadvantage, that had not made him the man's subordinate.
After sending the Magic Message, Green did not wait for a reply.
Grand Duke Mora didn't know what Grand Duke Mora was doing or when the grand duke would see the message, so Green returned to Lorraine City
