"Let's go. We have got the information." Kanaria waved her hand to Melody and Jay, who were waiting for them next to the south gate.
"Yup."
What they didn't know was that three hours after Kanaria and Clovis left, there was another person actually inquiring about the same mountain.@@@@
Meanwhile, the group had headed directly to the mountain. Kanaria briefed them about the mountain and the information they had just received.
"So, the beasts are going to be stronger, huh? And there are flying beasts right now, which is much harder to deal with. That sounds interesting. I guess Kanaria will be the main offensive against those flying beasts." Melody gave her assessment.
"There is the ruin too. I'm getting excited right now." Jay smirked, definitely feeling fired up to know that there was a beast nest where he could fight to the fullest.
"Still, we're talking about a ruin. I mean, I have heard about ruins appearing in the subterranean world, symbolizing the human ancestors. But there isn't much information about the ruins since they aren't that advanced when passing their knowledge. Besides, all of them have been wiped out.
So, we can't expect anything from this ruin," said Kanaria, indirectly implying that Jay would definitely have his fill on this trip.
"We've got several missions as well, so let's take down those beasts. Most of them are Tier 2 beasts, but we have one mission to kill a Tier 3 beast. So, make sure that we complete our priority first before searching for the ruin and the hot spring."
"It's not going to be a very tall one, right? I mean, the ceiling above us is only about three hundred meters. It's going to be a quick climb." Jay shrugged. Three hundred meters might look tall for a normal person, but it was certainly very small for a mountain. "I wonder why they don't call it a hill since it is only 280 meters above the ground."
"Nevertheless, we shouldn't underestimate all the terrain here." Clovis saw that they were about to enter the forest filled with beasts, so he gave his order. "We'll focus on our destination, so there's no need to find a perfect place to assist us. Only when we reach our destination can you find places to snipe."
"Got it."
There were many narrow paths, but it would be hard to cross all of them, especially when they were being attacked by beasts.
Still, some small flat plains were visible from the foot of the mountain. There were also some smokes rising into the air, so it was pretty clear that those areas were where the hot springs were. He just had to find the most comfortable ones according to the information they had.
The problem would be climbing this rocky mountain. If they fell, they would definitely be heavily injured or even die. So, this was going to be a challenge.
Some flying beasts were spotted flying around the mountain as if searching for their prey. In fact, due to the angle of the climb, they could see pretty clearly some of the beasts from this place.
"The best plan will be to alert those beasts and force them to go down. Only after we kill those threats can we start climbing." Melody looked concerned since this kind of challenge was much more dangerous when there was a brawl maniac that just wanted to kill these beasts.
"Does that mean we're going to camp here first?" Jay asked.
"Is that even a question? Do you know how dangerous it is to fight on that steep climb or even rest there?" Melody's eyebrows twitched.
"I mean, shouldn't we find the ruin and use it as our camp?" Jay corrected his words.
Melody suddenly fell silent, realizing that what he said made some sense.
Clovis looked at the mountain carefully, calculating the danger they would face here. Even he didn't expect that the mountain was this steep. It was no wonder why that middle-aged man suggested they not visit the mountain just for experience.
Clovis took a deep breath before saying, "Alright. Here is the plan. We still have three hours before dark, so we will—"
"Guys!" Kanaria's voice suddenly echoed in their ears, interjecting Clovis.
All of them turned around, wondering why she called. Kanaria seemed to be pointing at something behind a tree with a worried face. "I think you need to see this."
