Chapter 198 Meeting With The Group
Chapter 198 Meeting With The Group
(From MC's Perspective)
After getting inside my room, I collapsed on my bed. I didn't get outside until the time for dinner. Later, the dinner went smoothly. Then a few minutes later, I started to get ready for the wilderness trip.
First, I need to find the availability of some stuff online. I accessed my communication to find monster attractive powder and miasmic potions. Last time, I went to the wilderness without much preparation.
This time I decided to buy some items for emergency use. After checking the store online, I found the availability of some items. I'm not going to order them now, instead, I'll visit the store later.
Beep!
I received sound buzzes suddenly.
I saw it was a message from Bob Stokes. My lips swept into a gentle arc. He is confirming whether I'm going to come or not. Then I replied to the message by saying, I'll arrive at the adventurer union early morning.
After sending it, I started at the display screen for a couple of seconds. Then I received a reply from him saying, Okay.
"Why is he hurrying to die?" I mumbled under my breath. Three of them going to be my guide to the wide plains. Once my goal is achieved, I'll kill them.
After gaining some clarity in my thoughts, I opened the map of the wilderness in my communication watch. This digital map is more convenient than sheep scroll ones.
When the map was opened, I immediately began to observe the wide plains section. There are not many hills on the wide plains. It is open land. It's even rare to find a common tree-like a shade tree in this particular area.
In my opinion, that is what makes this place very dangerous. There are a lot of first and second monsters roaming in this large open land.
Unlike the hill terrain, in this open land, it's difficult to hide your presence from the monsters. If it's a higher-order monster, it can easily sense your presence on wide plains.
Is it an abandoned site? Or something else.
Why do I have this feeling? That the abandoned site is completely different from my imagination.
But anyway, I won't go deeper into the woods. That's the hunting place of second-order monsters. It's okay to visit that place first then I'll slowly make up the follow-up plans.
Time went by,
After getting ready, I walked out of the home quietly at midnight. I booked an air cab a few minutes ago. It will shortly arrive. So I waited in front of my house.
5 minutes later,
When the air cab landed, I hopped inside and told the driver to go to venen city. I want to purchase a few things before meeting Bob and his team members. Then I sat back in the seat comfortably.
2 hours later,
The air cab entered the air space of venen city. The air traffic is slightly higher compared to the red city. Seeing that, I told the driver to land at a nearby air platform.
Then the air cab flew towards a certain location. After a few minutes, I saw the landing platform. The air cab slowly starts to descend after arriving at this place.
When it completely touched the ground, I stepped out of the car. I paid the amount before leaving this place.
Some important potion shops are within walking distance from here. So I decided to go to these shops one by one.
On the way, while walking past the crowd. The image of mum and dad flashed before my eyes. I know if I didn't let them know, they will be worried after seeing my disappearance.
So to deal with the situation I set a timer message. The message will be sent automatically to my parents at 7 am.
It is exactly an hour before breakfast. I have typed that I'm going early to school due to some urgent matter.
I hope this will be enough to convince them. Then putting these thoughts behind my mind. I continued my walking.
1 hour later,
I exited this medium-sized potion shop. After wandering around different places, I was finally able to collect the necessary items. But unfortunately, I have spent most of the money. Now I only got a few alliance points left in the bank account.
Beep!
A notification sound buzzes all of a second.
Hearing that, I know it was from Bob Stokes.
"They arrived so soon," My eyes gleamed with surprise as I saw the message. The adventurer union is a walkable distance from here.
I decided to go on a walk. In this way, I can also check whether they have arrived with additional members.
Then I sent a reply message saying, I'll be there in a few minutes. Three of them believed that I'm a local person. So If I delay any longer, it will raise their eyebrows.
The building of the adventurer union comes into sight a few minutes later. I walked a little bit forward to check the entrance gate. Then I saw three people standing there together and seemed to wait for someone's arrival.
"No one is around them," I muttered. Then I spent a few minutes making sure that no one was suspicious around them.
After confirming it, I walked toward them.
On the other hand, Bob is discussing with his friends.
"Bob, when are we going to kill Kevin?" Peter inquired.
Hearing that, Bob replied, " He said that he saw some purple flowers."
"If it's true then we have to wait for a while," he added further.
A quick glint flashes into his eyes.
After meeting with Kevin, he went back home immediately. Then he spent a couple of hours searching and finding the information about the purple flowers.
Surprisingly, there are many magical flowers with similar characteristics. So he couldn't tell which one was Kevin describing. But he makes sure to remember all the details.
Bob decided to inquire about Kevin about that magic flowers later.
Hearing their conversations, Garry said with a chuckle, "Peter, don't forget we need to hunt a few monsters as well."
"If you ask me, I'll say Kevin will be good bait for us."
After saying that he burst into laughter, "Ha...Ha...Ha..."
Hearing that, Bob also laughed with them.
Then he noticed a person walking towards them. When he realised that the person is none other than Kevin. He immediately signalled others to remind them.
Then three of them stopped talking.
On the other hand, When I arrived in front of them, three of them revealed bright smiles on their face.
"Kevin, can you tell me about the flower again?" Bob asked all of a sudden.
Hearing that, I realised I have told them a false name. I almost forget about it.
"Cough"
"Bob, I have only seen a purple colour mist above the flowers," I said with a cough.
"Unfortunately, I left that place in fear of monsters," I added further.
I put up an innocent act in front of them. Peter and Garry looked into each other's eyes. They were surprised to hear from Bob.
Now both of them realised, that Bob is seriously considering checking the flowers.
"Bob?" Peter said.
Bob raised his hand to stop him. "I know what I'm doing," He said in a stern tone. He knows two of them to have different ideas in their mind.
Peter wants to kill Kevin and check his valuables as soon as possible. Garry wanted to use Kevin as bait to attract the monster. Where he wants to check the location of the purple flower.
But one thing is certain Kevin will die in the end.
Seeing that the two of them became quieted down. Bob turned towards Kevin, "Do you remember that place?"
Hearing that I nodded.
"Then we can leave now, it's not good to waste any more time here, " Bob said.
The next second, we found two air cabs to hop in. Two air cars rose from the ground side by side and flew towards the city wall.
I decided to buy a pass. But I found Bob has already purchased a pass for me.
When the two air cars reached the city wall, both slowly landed on the platform.
When I stepped outside, I saw Bob is paying the amount to the cab drivers. Looking at him, I realised he is quite optimistic about the purple flowers.
I revealed an amusing smile on my face. I want to see what is he going to do then. When three of them realised it was a complete lie.
Then four of us entered the wilderness after showing the pass to the guards.
Seeing that, Bob is looking at me. I said, "I'll guide you after crossing the edge."
Hearing that Bob nodded. Then four of us rushed towards the destination at full speed.
I noticed Peter and Garry were completely dissatisfied with Bob's arrangement. Since he is the leader of their team, they can't do anything.
So both silently followed him. Seeing their reactions, I sneered inwardly, "They think their plan is absolute." But this is not the right time to kill them. So I'll have to wait a little more.
