(From MC Perspective)
After hearing my request, I hope that Mr. Arthur will help.
I looked at him, Mr. Arthur seemed to think about it. Maybe he can really help me with this.
Mr. Arthur answered, "Well, If you want to go to a more dangerous Monster zone, then it's very difficult to get permission."
Then he added, "But I believe Elder Thornton can get it for you. Why don't you ask him directly?"
I smiled and said, "I'm planning to go out tomorrow. So, I won't come to campus. Earlier, I thought about telling you, that's why I came. "
Mr. Arthur nodded to that, then I didn't wait and needed to get home before it's really dark.
After saying bidding bye to him, I walk out of the campus. Then I immediately hopped into the nearby air car. The air car rose upwards and flew towards the Red Stone City's Train Station.
I sighed. As I watched the scenery through the window, I couldn't help but recall the earlier conversation with Mr. Arthur.
Huh, I know it's too much to ask Mr. Arthur. May be, He is worried about me and that's why he didn't agree with my plan. Who knows I may end up going towards the core area in my next monster zone?
Shaking my head, I begin to look through the window. The scenery is really stunning, lit up buildings and buzzing streets. I don't know what it looks like in my Master's place.
Time progresses,
2 and half minutes later,
I reached home in time, after walking back into the hall. I found Uncle James in the hall. Seeing my appearance, he smiled back and gestured to me to take a seat.
After sitting on the couch, I let out a deep sigh.
Seeing Zack's behavior, Mr. James asked, "Is everything okay?"
I smiled wryly and replied, "This trip had wasted my time greatly."
Mr. James surprised and asked back in curiosity, "Oh, then tell me about it."
I told him about my encounter with Maria and followed up events.
Uncle James listened patiently till the end, he didn't even raise any question in between. Why do I feel like he knows everything about the forehand?
Mr. James commented, "It's really good that both of you didn't go any further towards the core area."
Then he looked at Zack and said in a solemn tone, "Unlike other areas, the core area has little land mass. It's basically leir to powerful monsters. Even the patrol guards won't dare to disturb the core area but you guys!" He sighed in the end.
"I know Uncle, But unfortunately I didn't come across any powerful monster except the croc and wolves" I said with a somewhat disappointing tone.
Talking about wolves, I recalled the weird ability of Brown Alpha. Maybe Uncle knows about it.
"Ahem, Uncle. Talking about wolves. The alpha showed some weird ability." I uttered while looking at him.
Then I explained in detail about the sudden increase in momentum done by Brown Wolf.
Mr. James didn't get surprised by it. There were a lot of Mutated Monsters which had the same weird ability in them.
Then he told Zack something about them.
When we both finished our little conversation, I walked back into my room to freshen up.
As expected, Monsters are not the same. Like the Black Tree that I had faced in the past, this brown alpha also has the weird ability.
But what a strange thing is, their abilities were not fully described in some books. Which also shows the importance of field experience. It won't do good, If I blindly trusts the book knowledge.
After getting into the bath, I begin to take a cold shower.
Sometimes later,
Laying in bed, I searched about the weather forecast at Mountain Liz.
Mountain Liz is the perfect place to practise my lightning techniques. For so long, I endure to hide my lightning element. But I don't know how long I will manage to keep it as a secret.
Inorder to perform better at Crimson Hall Exhibition Event. I need to improve in every aspect. So I can't delay my training further.
If there is good weather around Mountain Liz, then I will go tomorrow.
My heart is eased after sorting out my thoughts. Then I recalled the looted items. So many pills and cores, I look into the storage ring to go through the looted stuff.
One of my best haul is that I got the monster core of an Alpha Wolf. It will sell in the thousands, If I place it in the store. Consuming this monster core won't bring much of a strength to me as it's an earth element monster.
If I can exchange it for money or other useful things then it will be good. I'll give it to Uncle later, he will definitely exchange it for some good stuff.
Then I exit my room to go to the backyard for cultivation.
A few minutes later,
I stepped inside the backyard training room.
After shutting the door, I sat cross legged. One of the good things that I found from the thieves' storage is a few attribute-less essence pills.
I placed the attribute less essence pills in my palm. It looked milky white in color. By looking at the stuff, it really smelled rich to me.
This must belong to some rich person. "Poor soul!" I uttered before swallowing the pill.
The pure milky white pill my organs. Next moment, I can feel a burst of warm energy coursing through my body and finally get settled in my dantian.
Once it reaches the dantian, I can easily see the pure essence easily blends into my purple lightning essence.
Visibly, the white essence changes into purple color as it gets blended with dense purple essence. My eyes gleamed with surprise when I saw there was a little more quantity in dantian than earlier.
This pill is really useful, but I don't know about its impurities. Next time, I'll learn some basic knowledge about the pills. At Least that way, I can feel safe by consuming any pill.
After consuming it, I continued the process. There were two more pills in my hand. I plan to consume it completely before ending my practice.
