Chapter 91 - Part 1: Investigation

Meanwhile, The Black Tree Monster continued to Scream.

The Black Tree Monster didn't feel much of Zack's attack. It's not like Zack predicted. The Black Tree Monster has a tough defense of its trunk region. It needs many attempts to break through the defense.

If Zack was one level higher at Special Trainee. He can do it with ease. Then he can kill the Monster with a few attempts.

Zack removed the tent from that area. And he decided to set up the tent again at the pick-up location. He doesn't want to get tangled with Class 2 Monster anymore. He ran out of juice.. There is no more lightning energy in the Dantian. 

On top of it, He is feeling severe pain in the back. And also having a slight headache he decided to call it to quit. Until Mr. James arrives He is going to wait in the tent.

Meanwhile, at somewhere else in the forests.

"Mr. Dawson, is this the area?" Mr. James questioned him. He is pointing his fingers at the map. Both of them were traveling to certain locations in four-wheelers.

A huge digital map appeared in the A. I Screen. It is one of the mapping equipment carried by the exploration team.

Mr. Craig Dawson is driving this time. Hearing a question from Mr. James. He slowed down a little bit and looked at the map. "Yeah, this is the spot mentioned by my team" Mr. Craig Dawson replied.

Mr. James nodded and asked, "Where are they now?" From the beginning, he hears about Craig's team. But has never seen them. "They are currently investigating different locations." Mr. Craig Dawson said with a smile.

Then he added, "Don't worry, they will be joining us. Once they finish with their work."

Mr. James affirmed hearing that. He doesn't want warriors to investigate the place in separate ways.

If their findings were true. Then it's even more important for them to call it to quit. And find their way back to the station. Level 4 Monster can kill them with ease in no time. He knew personnel guarded here were all Trainee Warrior.

I knew Mr. Craig Dawson must be at the Mid-level of the trainee warrior. And his teammates might be at the early level. There is no one at Peak level except me.

Class 4 is a different Category. It's Elite Category. People here are no match to its Monstrosity. I hope it's a false alarm. Like that, Mr. James went to deep thinking.

Meanwhile, The Teammates of Mr. Craig Dawson is investigating an area.

"Emma, what do you think of this place?" Mr. Paul asked his teammate Emma, she was busy working with communication equipment.

Hearing no response, He moves towards her "Don't you think, Worm Monster love this place? It might be heaven for them" He said with a wide smile.

Ms. Emma got annoyed hearing that, "Why are you so happy about it? Our task is to find evidence. Don't jump to any conclusion before that" She warned him. She is the team leader. And Paul is her assistant. So, he got no choice to listen to her.

The smile on Paul's face disappeared. "I was hoping to get some earth affinity stone as a reward." He commented. Then he continued, "Now, it's almost a year. I'm being stuck at an early level." Paul sounded a little de-spirited. 

Hearing that, Emma shook her head. "Let's do our job. If we can find some compelling evidence. Then we both can get what we wanted from management." Emma sounded optimistic. Both of them started to explore the area. They are wearing Black Uniforms.

They went separate ways to explore the area. Emma took some equipment with her to check the soil's richness. Paul also took mapping equipment to mark the area. So, later Emma could check that area with her equipment.

Time went on, both of them doing a fine job, Paul is marking more areas along the way. But, they are taking some time to do that. This area is a little desolate. It's common to spot Class 2 Monsters here. And few class 3 Monsters in rare cases. 

The reason Paul called this area heaven is because. The Class Worm Monster likes to live under soil richness area. The Worms consume certain nutrients present in the soil. So, they shift very often from one place to another in search of that area.

So, Paul is very confident to find them.

Meanwhile,

Mr. Craig Dawson and Mr. James Lockwood reached their destination. Both of them stepped out of the car. 

"It looks like a cliff" commented Mr. James. There is a huge cliff in front of him. There is different land on the other side of the cliff.

Hearing that, Mr. Craig Dawson said, "It is not a normal cliff either." Then he pointed his fingers towards the cliffside. 

This landscape is the result of, two tectonic plates clashing with each other. In the end, one tectonic plate went upward and the other downward. Which made the above landscapes take shape of a cliff.

Then both of them walked towards the edge, to see the downward end. "So, your team spotted Worm Monster here," Mr. James pointed his fingers to the opposite side of the land. Currently, they are standing at the top. Seeing opposite land which is at the bottom.

Mr. Craig Dawson affirmed. That his team spotted the Worm Monster at the opposite bottomland. They reported that it is three times larger than the actual class 3 Monster. Then Mr. James requested binoculars from him.

With that binocular Mr. James began to observe opposite land. The area is a little desolate and a lot of barren lands were noticeable. So, far they have done the aerial mapping of that area. But, no one actually ventured inside that land.

They had no reason to waste any time in that area. But, now they had to investigate. The claim made by Mr. Craig Dawson is compelling. So, far No one explored the Black Forest region completely. So, it's hard to refute his claim.

"I didn't spot any Class 3" Mr. James sounded dejected. Hearing that, "We have no choice other than to form an exploration team" Mr. Craig Dawson said with a serious tone.
