The Pathway Of Wisdom-Chapter 59: The God of Wisdom is with us! Part-1.

"Oh! You are back, Ron! You are just on time! We were just about to begin the ceremony for the new recruits!"

Once Ron carried Paul inside, the circular door was slid back to its original position and closed.

Inside was a massive hidden corridor, and there were lamps illuminating the entire corridor.

Paul could see old mysterious engravings carved on the walls of the corridor, and the person who opened the door for them was standing just beside a giant lever, which was likely used for opening that massive stone door.

That person was also wearing a dark black robe; his entire body was hidden under that robe, and his face also had a similar strange-looking mask that Ron and Paul were wearing.

"Oh! Jamal! It’s you on duty right now? I thought it was Antonio’s turn?"

Jamal shook his head at Ron’s question and said,

"No, Antonio has been given a mission; he will not be here for the time being..."

Hearing that answer, Ron felt amused.

"Hoh? A mission, you say... I am always surprised when those missions are assigned; they are always so difficult to understand..."

"Even after completing a few of them, I still don’t understand what I accomplished with those missions..."

Hearing Ron’s words, Jamal nodded his head.

"Haha, I know what you are talking about... hmm? Is this a new recruit? take him to the main area; the ceremony is about to begin..."

"We have got three other new recruits recently; things are getting better and better each time..."

Ron nodded his head and said,

"Well, this guy’s got his head crushed... you know any of the guys who can fix it?"

"If I take him to the ceremony directly, he might not even be able to stand properly..."

Jamal thought for a while before replying,

"A doctor... hmm, well I did hear Old Man James say that he knew a bit about medicine... ask him to see his leg if he’s free..."

Paul was barely keeping himself conscious, as he was not only exhausted but also the pain in his crushed ankle was so much that he was about to faint from it.

But he was staying conscious just by sheer grit and determination.

After Ron talked with Jamal about a few other things, he hurried towards the main area while carrying Paul.

The corridor was silent, and only the faint sound of the lamps swaying in the faint breeze could be heard.

This underground area seemed to be built specially for secret forces to hide, as there were all kinds of facilities available.

There were even deep vents in this underground bunker-like facility, and it was all hidden very well.

As long as no traitors emerge in the organization, it’s near impossible for anyone in the city to notice that a hidden organization was conspiring right under the nose of the guards and soldiers.

After crossing the long corridor, Ron and Paul reached a massive hall-like open area.

It was like Paul had arrived inside some hidden underground ruin; there were hundreds of doors on each side of the hall, and each door seemed to lead to a different room.

A few doors were open, and Paul could see stone beds and furniture inside those rooms.

Then there was the second floor; two staircases located at the corners were leading to the balcony above, and through those balconies, you could enter the rooms located on the second floor!

Just like it was below, there were a series of rooms on the second floor too, and then there was a third floor.

There were in total three floors to this underground ruin!

There were at least fifty rooms in total, and the main plaza below was wide enough to hold more than two hundred people!

"Wha-wha!? How come there something so big located below the city!?"

Paul was so shocked by this scene that his eyes widened in shock!

"Haha, shocked to see it, all right? I was shocked too when I first saw it all; this is really a massive place..."

"And there are actually quite a few secret entrances leading to this place... just like the one we used to enter..."

"I have heard that there are multiple entrances through the sewers that lead to this area, and some of the corridors connected to it even lead outside the city!"

"In cases of emergency, they can even be used to escape outside the city!"

Paul was shocked to the core after hearing those words.

"Such a massive structure... don’t tell me that it’s a secret route those nobles created as an escape method in case of emergencies?"

Hearing Paul’s question, Ron smiled under the mask and nodded his head.

"Haha, you are quite smart for a farmer, aren’t you, Paul? Yes, this place was likely built by those arrogant noble lords; there’s no way others could have built it..."

"But the structure of this place seems more like an underground prison rather than an escape route..."

"We even found some old rusted torture equipment scattered in some rooms so most of us think that this place was likely used by some nobles to do horrible things at some point in time..."

There are all kinds of people in every world; some rich people do good things, open schools, create hospitals, and help the world as a whole.

But there are also nobles and rich people that take pleasure in playing with the lives of fellow human beings and do extremely horrible things just for the sake of their entertainment.

It was better not to think too much about what this place was created for, as it would only ruin the mood and make one question the very existence of humans in this world.

Paul didn’t have any interest in asking about the place in detail, as he was more focused on his own pain rather than thinking about others’ pain.

Ron also didn’t want to emphasize the matter too much, so he just carried Paul to the central area of the giant plaza, where a stage was made out of wooden beams stacked upon each other.

Several people were gathered in front of the stage, and just a simple estimate told Paul that there were at least forty-something people in there.
