Chapter 788 Towards the Tyrannosaurus Rex

Chapter 788 Towards the Tyrannosaurus Rex

After leaving Peters City, Lothur and his four women reached the Leopoldine border with Cesha, from where they planned to head north in search of the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Arriving at the Cesha border, Lothur said to his women. "From now on, we must travel carefully.

There were no enemy Sages in Leopoldine, but in the area ahead, 'many' 5th-stage cultivators must be investigating me.

So let's avoid using our Sage abilities so as not to attract unnecessary attention."

"Is that really necessary? We're already so powerful together." Rebecca said, imagining her man being overly cautious.

"Yes, it is necessary. As far as I know, 2nd Catastrophe Sages like us don't even have complete Spirit Bodies. But I'm aware that there are such people on the continent, including cultivators with Diamond-grade Soul Bones."

"Is that serious?" Annaliese asked worriedly.

"Hmm, and then there are those beings of non-human races who can reach the peak of cultivation without using Soul Bones. So we have to be careful. No matter how strong we've become, there are still beings capable of killing us on this continent." Lothur said seriously before making a recommendation.

"Then hide your level of soul cultivation and change your appearance. It'll be better that way so as not to attract curious people who are interested in me."

The people behind him didn't know that the human-demon hybrid who had reached the 5th stage was Lothur Ritter. But those beings certainly knew that this young man from Leopoldine was considered suspicious and missing, so having the women of such a person at his side without hiding their identities could become a problem.

The four understood Lothur's concern after a few words from him. They soon changed their appearance, hiding their auras, causing them to diminish until they reached the peak of level 20.

The area they were going to had the strongest publicly known level 20 and 21 beings, so it wouldn't be appropriate for them to have a level 21 cultivation, or they wouldn't avoid attracting the attention of worried Saints.

With that done, Lothur said. "Now, let's fly on our way. Manipulating space is something we should avoid.

Saints usually only travel through the vacuum of space when they know the area ahead or when they are on the run. Hence, it would be weird for people like us to do that."

They heard this and nodded, indicating they understood and would not manipulate space unless necessary.

With that settled, they looked at each other and took off, flying at low altitude, heading north.

Even though they were flying and not using their spatial manipulation skills to travel faster, they were flying at the maximum speed of level 20 Saints. As such, their speed was not small, and if they kept up the pace, they could reach the entrance of the Ancestral Region in a few days.

As they flew along the southernmost side of Cesha, Viktoria asked. "Where do we go first? You want to hunt demons, right? Should we start looking for them on the way?"

"We'll hunt demons, and if we see any on the way, we'll take care of them. But my goal now is to find an ally I made before. I want to find him because he has more information about the demons in Concordia than I do". Lothur replied, thinking of the level 22 dinosaur.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex didn't know anything about Demon Island, nor was he strong enough for Lothur to need him as an ally right now. However, he had been observing the continent for much longer than young Ritter had and had information that could be very useful as this young hybrid began his journey.

Lothur wanted to kill some high-ranking demons and get new bones for himself and his women on the mainland before going to Demon Island. So, someone like that dinosaur could have a positive effect on his journey.

At the same time, as much as he didn't want to deal with the leaves of the system in the short term, he still wanted to look for information about them in secret. That was something else the dinosaur could advise him on!

Thus, even though he could hunt demons, Lothur wanted to find this beast before continuing his plans.

"Is this the beast you mentioned?" Elke asked.

"Yes, that's him. He's been on a mission against demons for a long time. He'll be very useful to us." Lothur said.

"What about the spectres?"

Lothur looked at Annaliese. "We will look for information about them, but they're harder to find. And I don't have much information about such beings."

Thinking about these goals, Rebecca wondered. "Wouldn't it be better if we split up halfway through our quests? That way, we'll cover more ground and reach our goals faster."

The other three looked at Lothur and he said. "Yes, we'll do that later. But I want us to stay together until we get a little stronger. When that happens, we'll split up to investigate more places simultaneously."

Unlike him, the women of Lothur were utterly vulnerable to spectres of their level or higher. Also, looking at the 5th stage, there were 'many' level 23 Sages on the continent. Since they were at the bottom of that level, he felt it would be more dangerous for them to travel separately in the short term.

However, once they became stronger, he saw no problem with it. It would be good for him as well as for them.

Aside from that, the group would continue to travel without much comment after entering Cesha, quickly making their way through this state where no one would bother them in the short term.

...

After a week of traveling, the group of Lothur and his women had completely crossed Cesha and were already close to reaching the core of Rablus territory, one of the strongest states in the northern region.

Since they had not faced any battles during these days, the group had noticed that several groups of Sages were exploring the areas around their path.

However, being stronger than those Sages, they had managed to pass them unnoticed.

As they traveled, they heard various rumors about the emergence of hybrids on the continent and how the coalition of Sages had already exterminated one of these creatures and were hunting down the second.

Except for the 5th-stage experts, no one on the continent knew the level of the hybrid that was still being hunted. All ordinary people knew was that the battle that had taken place weeks ago on the southern border of Rablus had been over the soul bone of that dead creature.

Only experts knew that it had also been a confrontation with the other hybrid.

Meanwhile, the demon hunters had scaled back their actions against these creatures and wanted to destroy the hybrid. As a result, groups of demons that had been hiding throughout the continent began to appear more frequently in the northern region of Concordia.

When Lothur discovered this, he was pleased, but he had not yet acted, believing that he could hunt these creatures more safely with the help of the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

So he made it his goal to catch up with this dinosaur before he began his hunt!
