Chapter 191 Exiting The Wilderness

(From MC's Perspective)

"Old site," My eyes glowed with anticipation. If I can find another super relic, I'll be able to level up my talent. When I meditated inside the mana chamber, it completely altered my cognition.

Every hour, my mana core progression increased by 1%. So I made the naive assumption that if I continued to meditate there, my core progression would be completed.

Every level of talent has some limitations. So does my top-bottom grade talent, to see if my naive calculation is correct? I'll have to keep using that mana chamber.

I quickly decided as a glint of light flashed into my eyes. Then I noticed three of them struggling for air. I cast a spell to remove gravity in the following instant.  Because my mana reserves were at an all-time low.

Three of them fell to the ground, exhausted and hurt as the gravitational field vanished.

The group's leader was beaming. He believed that, in the end, his negotiations had saved his life. He smiled slightly as he turned to face his two guild mates. He immediately widened his eyes in shock, though.

His eyes landed on the young man who wielded the black dagger as it slashed his neck. Why, then, did he have successful negotiations? His eyes were full of inquiries. But sadly, he was out of breath in a matter of seconds.

"What were you up to?" The wizard, who was thin, screamed hysterically. The leader served as his moral compass and backbone. He went completely insane after witnessing the murder of his leader right in front of his eyes.

The other team member made an effort to use his magic. Sadly, he soon discovered that his neck had been slashed.

PFFF

He expires while spitting blood.

The skinny wizard lost all strength when it witnessed another member falling. He lost consciousness and his mind went blank.

I scoffed, "I have never had to save their lives in the first place," on the other hand.

I then thrust my dagger into the skinny dude's mana core region. I then completely eliminated all three of them.

No way, the details regarding the abandoned site are a deadly secret. However, the leader revealed all out of fear; I have to say, he was frantic to escape death.

If I didn't know the secret, I would have killed them. Since I already lack enough alliance points. I then gave each of their storage bracelets a quick glance.

I'm hoping they contain some priceless items. I then went ahead and took the storage bracelets off of them. I took their storage bracelets and started to dispose of their corpse's one at a time.

I skipped checking the items right away. I've already used up all of my mana, so I shouldn't stay any longer.

I discarded their corpse and left the area. Before it's too late, I have to get to the outside area.

If I ran into any adventurer teams or monsters right now, it would be risky. So on my way back, I was a little more circumspect.

Time went by,

I entered the outer area without mishap after crossing the edge. I saw a few adventurers on my way, but they were too far away. Thus, they were unaware of my presence. I took the chance and sped up my forward movement.

Several hours later

I succeeded in getting to the city wall, but it was already dark. The guards asked me for my ID as I approached the gate. I verified by displaying the hunter license to them.

I looked around when I first arrived in the city. Observing that nobody is nearby. I chose to reserve a hotel.

A few minutes later, an air car rose from the ground and zipped towards the destination.

I went outside as soon as the air car touched down in front of a little hotel. I paid the amount and then turned to look around. This little inn is not far from the Adventurer Union building.

My eyes receive a brief glint of light.

I'm checking to see if anyone knows anything about the old secret site. I can't just take someone at their word. I made the decision to go to the Adventurer Union later after gaining some insight.

Maybe I can hear something important.

I approached the staff members working at the registration desk. He gave me a room access code after I paid the sum. I then proceed to the room.

The room is on the second floor of the structure. Despite the hotel's small size, it was kept immaculately clean. Fewer people were walking with me. I passed them and came to my room.

The door opens with a "Creak," sound.

When I entered the room, the door automatically shut behind me. I didn't immediately check my loot. I decided to search the room for any bugs that might be spying on me.

Some hotels frequently employ illegal techniques to gather data. In close proximity to Adventurer Union is this hotel. I therefore don't want to take any chances.

The information of their guests may be leaked by this hotel.

Then I started looking in this room's crevices and corners. I sat down on my bed a short while later to get some rest. After making sure there was nothing suspicious in the room, I let go. I have energy, but I'm mentally worn out. I haven't been able to calm my heart down since learning about the old secret site.

My heart began to beat faster. I have a hunch that I could benefit from the old secret site. Talent is the only factor that matters to me when it comes to the wizardry path.

Is it possible to discover a super relic once more? My eyes receive a brief glint of light. This is not a small matter. I must decide quickly in this regard.

If the rumors are accurate, powerful wizards from the Valiant Sword Guild will visit the old site.

I'm not certain of their skill level. However, I predict that no level 1 wizards will be present. The lowest level of wizard is level 1. I don't believe any guild would send their weakest wizards to such a remote location.

My expression darkened as I became aware of this. I'll definitely die if I go there. Now what? Should I arrive before them?

But I'm not sure of the precise location. I only know where the old site is, which is somewhere on broad plains beyond the hill peaks.

There is none at all for me. Should I disregard the old secret site? No, I must devise a suitable strategy. I can't just wander the open plains looking for ancient sites. Taking into account the possibility that there may be many monsters present.

SIGH

I remembered leaving the area after coming across the snake monster. I'm already lucky to be alive after surviving that snake monster.

Realistically speaking, my strength is weak. I'm not yet qualified to travel into the vast plains. I could do something about it if I had more free time.

Therefore, traveling alone across the vast plains will only result in your own death. It is preferable to consider the following practical plan.

Beep!

I got messages from my family when I was daydreaming. To read it, I accessed the communication watch. Reading the message didn't surprise me at all.

My parents sent me messages asking where I was. I then responded to them by typing, "I will be home in a few hours," in the message.

I sent the message and then quickly checked my storage bracelet. Some upscale storage bracelets perform duties that are akin to those of communication watches.

That most likely required a million alliance points. I shook my head as I infused the storage bracelet with mental energy. Three bronze storage bracelets were floating in midair, I noticed.

When I noticed that, I removed the storage bracelets to inspect the loot. I should sell all of my magic supplies to the Adventurer Union since I'll be visiting them.

From the storage bracelet of the leader. A sheep scroll caught my eye. My eyes receive a brief glint of light. The scrolls are typically used for communication.

What information is written there is unknown to me. As a tinge of curiosity developed in my mind. I remove the scroll so I can read it.

This animal scroll has a tough surface. I'm not new to it; my parents have previously used scrolls. Some were official scrolls that their hospital had given them. Official scrolls were distinctive and made from various, high-quality magic materials. So they were not comparable to sheep scrolls.

I then started reading the information on the scroll.

My eyes receive a brief glint of light.

Some instructions were written on the scroll.

The group was asked by someone to learn more about the wizards that were prowling the edge of the wilderness.

It is the precise location where the wilderness' outer and inner regions are separated. Why? What might the cause be? Many questions pop into my head.
