Chapter 846 Forming Group 1
Ayden listened to Vicent's proposal and added when he noticed the silence of the Phoenixes. "Vicente spent years traveling the central and southern regions of the continent, fighting monsters, giving human cities a chance, and hunting vampires.",
If it weren't for him, at least tens of thousands more people would have died to the monsters in the last three years. Also, over 20 million humans now live in the cities he helped protect.
Many of the strongest warriors in those cities have been directly helped by him. Recently, he hunted down 4th stage superior vampires in my state and gave their bodies to the forces of my kingdom to consume and strengthen.
I'm sure that when we defeat superior 5th stage vampires in the future, those who survive the battle will have the chance to taste the blood of the damned and grow stronger."
Bonfi looked at Ayden and believed the monarch's words. Beasts, in general, could easily detect lies in human words.
Their keen senses were difficult to fool, and someone in Bonfi's position could tell a person's personality type and sincerity with just a glance.
Although he didn't like humans, Bonfi knew how to respect those who deserved it. Even though he didn't know Ayden, he felt the man's confident and unwavering words in a way that made him think the monarch was an experienced fighter and someone he could trust.
"So that's it... In that case, I believe we can join forces for this journey north." He decided, already having the support of the tribal elders.
Vicente sighed as he got his first bestial ally, pleased, because phoenixes were among the most impressive creatures on the entire continent!
They might not be among the most powerful and talented races, but they were definitely among the top 15 most powerful races in the Polaris Realm.
"When can you leave? Given the difficulty of our targets, we can't be too late to start hunting our pentagrams. I believe we have less than a year before the first superior 5th stage vampire awakens from its state." Vicente asked, warning the creatures.
"You can leave immediately. It will be interesting to pass through the territory of the Hippogryphs. This guy might join your group."
"Qiang?" Bonfi asked, thinking of the strongest of the Hippogryph Tribe.
Vicente opened his eyes in interest as he listened to this conversation, aware that Hippogryphs were powerful beings, fast, with powerful forms of attack and very resistant bodies.
The elder of the tribe said. "He will join you if you explain the situation well. Although he is an arrogant individual, he hates vampires."
Bonfi looked at Vicente and said. "I don't mind fighting alongside Qiang, but I won't talk to him. He's unpleasant and behaves like a peacock."
Vicente smiled and said. "I'll take care of it. The most important thing is his fighting ability."
"As for that, I can't deny his abilities. Although he's a nuisance as a living being, he's a skilled warrior." Bonfi said.
"If that's all, let's go to that tribe. By the way, where are they?" Vicente decided.
"I will lead you. The Hippogryph Tribe is at the northernmost border of The Hungry Canyon, near The Pure Enclave."
"Stop by the Leshys tribe as well. They are skilled allies to have in a fight against vampires." Advised the oldest 5th stage Phoenix as Vicente's group prepared to leave.
Leshys, powerful forest spirits, protectors of animals and plants, were extremely efficient in fighting creatures vulnerable to soul attacks.
Any type of magical being was vulnerable to soul attacks, but in the case of vampires, who were virtually physically indestructible, soul attacks were the only thing that could endanger their lives!
Having a Leshy at his party could make a big difference to Vicente!
"The Leshys are in The Pure Enclave. They're on their way north." Bonfi told Vicente.
With that in mind, Vicente nodded in agreement to pass such a place before thanking the birds in the area and saying goodbye.
The five individuals, four humans and one bird, took off in a northerly direction, quickly reaching high altitudes as they flew.
"Are there no other interesting tribes for us to pass through in the area?" Jacob asked Bonfi.
"There are two other tribes with Archmages in their ranks in The Hungry Canyon. But they have elemental affinities with some of you, so it would be difficult for us to find allies there." Bonfi explained as he looked at Ayden and Paul.
"Our chances will be better if we go to the tribes indicated by the elder Pire. It's likely that we'll have at least two more Archmages in the group when we leave The Pure Enclave."
"That's enough for now." Vicente said, and the group accepted the situation as they continued their journey north.
...
Over the next three weeks, the four humans and one phoenix would travel all the way to the Hippogryphs Tribe, where Vicente would meet Qiang.
Fortunately, Bonfi had warned the group about the personality of this guy with the back of a horse and the front of an eagle, otherwise the group might have misunderstood Qiang.
But even though Qiang wasn't the most pleasant being to get to know, underneath all his arrogance, he was reasonable enough to understand the group's mission and the opportunities for him.
Like Bonfi, Qiang was a top-notch Beginner Archmage. As long as he had a chance, he could reach the level of an Intermediate Archmage!
Thinking that eventually, the group would have to kill 5th stage superior vampires and share the spoils, he agreed to join the group after some initial difficulties in the discussions.
Once his mind was made up, they set out for the Leshys tribe, which was less than a week's journey north of the Hippogryph Tribe.
The group of six arrived there at that very moment!
...
After entering The Pure Enclave, the group followed the directions of Bonfi, who knew the area of the far north of the central region and the far south of the northern region very well.
As they slowed down and approached the Leshys tribe, they lowered their flying altitude while Qiang talked to himself.
"Why do we follow that orange bird? I had a much faster route in mind." Said the creature with the front body of an eagle and the back body of a horse.
His silver wings were striking, and his large golden beak was sharp and capable of piercing even the bodies of powerful Archmages.
The claws on his two front legs were as sharp as swords, making it one of his strong points for attacking enemies.
Bonfi said nothing when he heard the annoying creature's comment until he spotted the first of the Leshys in the area they were approaching.
