Undying Warlord

Chapter 170 Leaving Rian?

As long as he inserted a trace of mana inside the Penta Item Pouch, Dilan knew how many items were stored within the pouch and how high the quantity of the items stored within was.

“So it does differentiate between the quality and Tier of Essence crystals.” He merely mumbled, while perceiving that there were dozens of Ordinary Tier-1 Essence crystals in his pouch, all of which were considered as one item.

On the other hand, another item was Bronze Tier-1 Essence crystals.

‘Truly a shame…if ‘Essence crystals’ wouldn’t be split up, it would be possible to store thousands of various types of Essence crystals, taking up merely one spot…’

Dilan sighed a few times, feeling that it was a shame because he could not find a loophole on how to exploit the Penta Item Pouch.

But he quickly realized that he was overthinking. The gains from a single Penta Item Pouch were already great, so there was no use complaining about it.

“Now that I think about it, it would have been even better if the Penta Item Pouch would split up the same Essence crystals according to the type of beast the crystals hail from.”

Dilan didn’t want to waste Essence crystals and absorb them if they didn’t even provide him status points.

He had already received so little Essence from Essence crystals that only status points were somewhat valuable to him.

However, once again, Dilan had expected too much from a Bronze quality treasure, which was why he returned to the hospital.

There, he searched for Mira and handed the [Botanica Lexica Magica] ability crystal to her._-.

Mira, the youngest Nurse in their rows, had been talking with her friends before she jumped up the moment Dilan approached them.

He left after giving her the ability crystal, not saying anything about the fact that she was currently slacking off.

‘What is wrong with him?’

Mira was not sure what was going on with Dilan but he was much more relaxed than the days before. This was truly odd because most survivors were worried about the Sun temple and the unknown dangers from the mountainside.

By now, everyone had heard about the Sun temple and the foreign races that had appeared out of nowhere and were currently residing in it.

Even Dilan didn’t know that the survivors were aware of the foreign races because he had kept everything under wraps to prevent mass panic.

If he were to know that everyone had found out about the Sun temple, he would be quite confused about the rather calm behavior of all survivors.

He would have definitely expected some survivors to lose their sanity and to run for their life.

However, in the end, there was nowhere to run. It was quite obvious that being under Dilan’s protection provided the highest chances of survival to them.

Thus, nobody considered running for their lives, simply because it would be a death sentence.

Seeing that Dilan was much calmer by now, not only Mira was baffled but also the other young Nurses, who had been rescued from the other towers.

They were Mira’s friends, whom she had started her apprenticeship with.

A few days ago, when the hospital’s towers had been fully cleared by the Ascenders, they had found nearly 100 Survivors spread through the hospital.

Nearly all of them were on the verge of death but they had survived with the use of several healing abilities and the surplus of Essence that had invigorated their body.

Afterward, they had been accepted in Dilan’s community. All Survivors had been strengthened and given the chance to do whatever they wanted to.

Many survivors wanted to search for their families, including the old Survivors and Ascenders, who had been staying with Dilan for quite a while already.

When Dilan heard this for the first time, he was quite proud of his people because they still cared about their family, despite all the chaos, which had wreaked havoc on Milarn.

In his opinion, it had been quite late for them to start thinking about their family, simply because it had already been two weeks since the Primordial Ascension had occurred.

However, when he had considered that the last few days had been the first rather peaceful days, Dilan understood that nobody had time to think about others as their own life had been on the line.

To protect others one needed to be alive first. This logic was quite simple and Dilan could tell from the expressions of some of the Ascenders that they were simply too afraid to ask Dilan for his help.

Of course, Dilan wouldn’t help them search for their family. He had to take care of a group with close to 3000 Survivors.

If he were to help everyone search for their family, it would take decades to find them, whether alive or dead.

He had allowed everyone to leave to search for their family and to return with them. But in all honesty, Dilan didn’t have much hope for the Ascenders and the others to find their family alive.

Even finding their corpses should be quite difficult.

This realization was something that had hit the teenagers the most because they had been dragged out of their ordinary life, and separated from their loved ones, only to be struck with the reality that their family was most likely dead by now.

In the end, this was why Dilan didn’t say anything to Mira and her friends, despite knowing that they slacked off a little bit.

He had sensed their tension, fright, and sadness, and knew that his complaints would only worsen their mental state.

‘As long as they can console each other it will be fine..’ He concluded before entering the cafeteria.

There, he filled his stomach with a few dishes, just to get up and leave the cafeteria once again.

“Tell the others that I will leave Rian until the evening. I might even take until tomorrow to return if I’m busy.”

The moment he finished the line, Dilan had already reached the cafeteria’s doors.

“Wait!! What do you mean ‘leave Rian’?? Where are you going?”

Bianne had clearly heard Dilan and a shocked expression appeared on her face. She let go of all the pots and pans she had been holding as all of them clattered to the ground with a loud bang but that was not something Bianna could be bothered about.

In an instant, she rushed after Dilan, who had already stepped outside the kitchen.

“Don’t worry, I’m just taking a stroll over the Shikan plains.”

He sounded calm but when Bianne looked straight into Dilan’s sky-blue eyes, she realized that she shouldn’t ask more.

The seriousness in his eyes told her where he was headed to. Thus, she could only bite her lower lip in worry.

“Take care of yourself, alright? …We need you here…”

Bianne had almost said ‘I need you’ but it was only fortunate that she realized what her messed-up mind was doing. Her cheeks turned red in embarrassment and she sighed in relief because she had escaped a catastrophe just now.

“I know, I’ll be back soon.”

Saying so, Dilan disappeared from Bianne’s sight. He left the hospital not long after and rushed out of Rian with a single target in his mind.

This target was none other than the Sun temple!
