It wasn't long before they reached the deepest part of the cave, an enormous chamber shrouded in darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as they stepped inside, a glowing panel flickered into existence before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Heart of Calamity Chamber]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words shone in eerie, golden light, and a collective gasp escaped their lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was confirmation that Lord X's revelation was true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The [Heart of Calamity]…\" Kyofu whispered, his expression twisting into a manic grin. \"With this, the resurrection of the Hatred Demon will be within our grasp!

Your skill is the most reliable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gentleman in the crimson hat nodded gracefully. \"Very well. But I expect my efforts to be duly appreciated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knelt on the cold stone floor and pressed a gloved hand against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint golden aura radiated from his body, spreading outward in rippling waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Artifact Detection: Activating.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Gekido's unique skill, a power that allowed him to pinpoint the presence of any artifact within a vast radius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the most useful in terms of finding the items for the ritual, thanks to this skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden light surged through the chamber, tendrils of energy probing every crevice and corridor of the cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For several tense moments, they waited in silence. Then, a notification appeared before Gekido's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[One Artifact Detected: Heart of Calamity.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gekido rose to his feet, brushing the dust from his gloves. \"It has been here before,\" he confirmed with a satisfied smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group advanced deeper into the chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they moved, the oppressive atmosphere grew heavier, the air thick with latent energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't long before they reached a grand pedestal in the heart of the cavern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pedestal was ornately carved, its surface adorned with runes that pulsed faintly. It was clear this was where the [Heart of Calamity] had once rested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, the pedestal was empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, no one spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reality of the situation dawned on them all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is it?\" Dominic growled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone took it,\" Kyofu spat, his voice dripping with rage. \"But who?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yokubo's eyes narrowed. \"Wait. If Lord X sensed the artifact's aura on that boy, doesn't that mean…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group exchanged uneasy glances, the implications sinking in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That kid,\" Gekido muttered, his voice unusually sharp. \"Not only did he take the [Vial of Undead Blood], but he also has the [Heart of Calamity]. He's collecting the very items we need for the summoning ritual.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A notification panel materialized before them, confirming their fears:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Heart of Calamity: Status – Taken.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No time to waste,\" Dominic said grimly, summoning a portal with a flick of his wrist. \"We need to report back to Lord X immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group hurried through the portal, their thoughts racing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they emerged back at their hideout, a single question hung heavy in the air: How had the boy taken the [Heart of Calamity] without dying?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a well-known fact among the [Hatred Sect] that the [Heart of Calamity] was untouchable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the strongest commanders wouldn't dare lay a hand on it directly, knowing the artifact's destructive power would consume them instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet somehow, Alex had not only taken it but managed to keep it hidden from their grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did he discover a method to bypass its defenses?\" Yokubo wondered aloud, pacing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyofu slammed a fist into the wall, the stone cracking under the force. \"No ordinary human could pull off something like this. He's hiding something, something big.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dominic rubbed his temples. \"Regardless of how he did it, we can't let this slide. If he's targeting the ritual's items, then he's more dangerous than we thought.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, still in the [Fox Tribe Village], Alex waited a few minutes before using [Spatial Detection] again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[0 presences found.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They're gone,\" he sighed, finally deciding to teleport to the [Heart of Calamity Chamber] too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the moment he did, he was met with a surprising sight: all the monsters that should have been his attribute points loot bags were dead, seemingly all killed by a singular attack as they were all cut in half.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They stole my attribute points for the day too,\" Alex sulked, \"I really need to get the most I can right now before the examination.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only would it allow him to grow in power, thanks to some strong monsters and items, but some dragons were also present, allowing Alphox to evolve too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't miss this opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>",1211,"2026-06-03T12:12:47.111Z","2026-06-03T12:12:55.153Z",1,"novelbin.me","b2097889dd7c9ade038f4901693056070bcb925a487492b64f6ece3b513f290f","awakening-reincarnating-with-the-sss-level-extra-chapter-150","awakening-reincarnating-with-the-sss-level-extra-chapter-148",516,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fawakening-reincarnating-with-the-sss-level-extra-cover.jpg"]
