Chapter 599 Part 1: Gathering Point (Crown Forest)
In the Gregor Mansion, I wrote the mission report. Then I thought about leaving this place but something was bothering me.
I still don\'t know what these people are up to. There is something there in the Crown Forest that has attracted the Meteor Academy students to come.
Shall I follow them? A curiosity appeared in my heart. But at the same time, I\'m extremely wary. I don\'t want my identity to be exposed.
After gaining some clarity, I decided to follow these people. Since I have the Gregor Mansion. I can hide whenever I want.
Buzz~
After walking through the forest for a few minutes. I heard the buzzing sound. The buzzing sound keeps getting closer as I\'m walking forward.
Buzzzz~
A few seconds later, I saw a sea of bugs flying towards me. For a second, I thought it was a lower-order monster.
But when they got closer. A sense of crisis hit me again.
[Ding! Warning]
[Host is under attack]
When the mechanical voice sounded. I realized that bugs can pose a threat to me.
"Gravity Domain," I cast the magic spell.
The next second, the surroundings went dark. I found myself standing in a separate domain. While the sea of bugs is captured in the domain as well.
Buzz~
The monster bugs didn\'t feel any changes. Rather, the sea of bugs continues to get closer to me.
Pfff~
The gravitational pressure appeared.
The next second, the bugs burst into pieces like crackers. One after another, the crackling sound can be heard. In the blink of an eye, the sea of bugs disappeared into pieces.
Then I canceled the spell. The next second, the surroundings went back to usual.
Meanwhile,
May & Rina have completed their conversation. Rina walks out before moving into her tent.
Time went by,
The meteor academy students stayed in their camp. Seeing that I decided not to appear outside.
The following day,
The Meteor Academy students start packing up their camp. Apart from the 2 girls, there are 3 more female wizards and 4 male wizards. The last one is their leader. He must be a senior student of theirs.
The group started to leave after packing up their bags an hour later. Soon the 10 wizards started walking forward without speaking too much.
Even the talkative Rine and May seemed to be silent. The leader is leading the group behind then male wizards are following quietly.
Even behind them, the female wizards are slowly following them. May and Rina are the last in the group.
Seeing that my eyes flickered. As long as I follow these 2 girls. I can get information from their mouth.
Then I saw in the mirror, the group disappeared from the spot. Seeing that I didn\'t leave immediately. Rather, I waited for some time to be over.
2 hours later,
Swoosh~
I appeared outside. The next moment, I started checking the surroundings by using the probe function.
Seeing that there was no backhand left behind them. I sighed inwardly. Then I started following the narrow path. Walking through the forest, I have been keeping an eye on my surroundings.
The strange plants with blue-colored leaves attract the eyes.
[Ding! Warning]
[Host is under attack]
The mechanical voice sounded in my mind. When I looked ahead, I saw a blue-colored cat monster staring at me.
Just now, I have appreciated the strange blue color. But looking at it again gives me a creepy feeling.
The monster didn\'t move from the spot. It appears to be 85 CM tall in height similar to humans. The length of the body is 8ft.
When I observe closely. I saw a monster looking at me with an unkind gaze. Like some intruder trespassed its territory.
When I used the probe function. I saw that the monster is only a 4th order monster. No wonder the monster was small in size.
Seeing that I used a small gravity field to scare the monster. Right after, the blue cat escaped from the spot.
After this small episode, I continued my journey. The vegetation has become denser along the way. I also came across many insect-type monsters.
Meanwhile,
The meteor academy students arrived at the gathering point. The gathering point is a big camp set up by students of the academy.
They are not the 1st batch to arrive. Before the May & Rina group. Others reached the camp safely.
The group saw students wearing brown color academy uniforms walking by.
Seeing that the leader led the group to enter inside. Their appearance immediately attracted attention.
"Hey, Senior Brother Mark is back with his group."
"Call other group leaders to come out"
The meteor academy students started speaking. The commotion quickly attracted attention.
Other wizard groups stepped out from their tent. Soon the four group leaders walked up to greet Mark.
There are 5 wizard groups here. Each has 10 members. Leaving behind the leaders, there are 9 members in each group.
The leader Mark is a quiet man. He quickly swept his eyes across at everyone.
"I hope we are not late," Mark said with a smile.
"Brother Mark, you are the strongest person here. Don\'t need to be so humble," A hot-looking female leader said with a giggle.
"Ah, Rosy. You seemed to be in a good mood. Did you guys find the route?" Mark asked. He didn\'t mind Rosy\'s sarcastic tone.
Apart from Mark and Rosy, there is one more female leader. And 2 male leaders.
They didn\'t interfere in Mark and Rosy\'s banter.
"How do you know?"
"We indeed found a route. But it\'s not verified yet," Rosy said while standing cross-armed.
Behind, Rina\'s cunning flickered. May saw the bright face of Rina. She couldn\'t help but ask her, "What are you thinking?"
Rina shook her head in denial before replying, "Nothing."
Seeing the banter with Rosy not going to be over. Mark said, "Alright, we can discuss it at night. Right now, my team has to settle here."
After saying that Mark led his team towards an empty area. Where they can set up their tent.
Other leaders looked at each other before leaving with their group.
