What caught his eye, however, was a string of ssages from Diana Nor and two missed calls. "Oh, drinking really causes trouble!" Ethen Cole suddenly slapped his forehead. Fearing Diana Nor might misunderstand, he imdiately called back.
"The user you are trying to reach is out of the service area. Please try again later."
"The user you are trying to reach is out of the service area. Please try again later."
Ethen Cole dialed repeatedly, but no one answered. Out of the service area? He deduced that it was highly likely Diana Nor had already entered Forest No. 9.
During his previous adventures in Forests No. 3 and No. 11, Ethen Cole discovered that there were indeed many areas in the forests where human communication signals were not covered, resulting in out of service situations.
"Based on the ti, Diana Nor could indeed have already entered Forest No. 9..." Concerned for Diana Nor's safety alone, Ethen Cole hurriedly washed his face, grabbed his backpack, and dashed out of the dormitory.
Once downstairs, he jumped on his bicycle and sped toward the campus gate. At the sa ti, he called Senior Alif Haikal.
He rembered that when he had coffee with Senior Alif, the senior had ntioned that two other mbers of the Black Falcon Team were out training.Moreover, one of them seed to be in Forest No. 9.
After the call connected, Ethen Cole briefly explained Diana Nor's solo trip to Forest No. 9. Alif Haikal assured him that he would imdiately contact the teammate in Forest No. 9.
Three minutes later, Alif Haikal sent a ssage back to Ethen Cole, informing him that he had already spoken to their teammate from the Black Falcon Team. This teammate had just left Forest No. 9 not long ago, and upon receiving the news, imdiately turned back to return to Forest No. 9.
Additionally, the ssage included the teammate's phone number. Upon receiving the number, Ethen Cole called and described Diana Nor's characteristics to the teammate, whose na was Mila Rock.
Mila Rock assured Ethen Cole that he would imdiately help in searching for Diana Nor. After expressing his gratitude, Ethen Cole continued to pedal furiously on his bicycle.
At the campus gate, while he was waiting for the bus, a JEEP brand off road vehicle suddenly stopped in front of him. The driver was a girl wearing glasses. She leaned out and asked, "Ethen Cole?"
"Yes, I'm Ethen Cole!"
"I was sent by Senior Alif. He was very concerned upon learning about your situation and asked to drive you to Forest No. 9. Hop in quickly." As she spoke, the girl unlocked the car door.
"Great, thank you."
Considering the uncertainty of when the bus would arrive, Ethen Cole quickly opened the car door and got into the off road vehicle.
Vroom!
The girl with glasses looked quite gentle, but her driving style was rather aggressive. With the pedal to the tal, the off road vehicle sped away.
In a bid to save ti, the girl skillfully changed lanes and overtook cars with impressive precision, earning Ethen Cole's silent admiration.
However, he had no ti to dwell on her exceptional driving skills. He continuously tried to reach Diana Nor, but there was no response, only the repeated ssage: "The user you are trying to reach is out of the service area. Please try again later."
Unable to contact Diana Nor, Ethen Cole grew increasingly anxious, with a nagging sense of unease. There's no denying that the off road vehicle was much faster than the bus.
In just about 10 minutes, they had already left the base. After driving for about another 30 minutes, the vehicle arrived at the entrance of Forest No. 9.
If they had taken the bus, this journey would have taken no less than two hours.
"You should hurry into the forest; I'll wait for you here," the girl said as she stopped the car.
"Thank you!"
Ethen Cole imdiately jumped out of the off road vehicle and dashed toward the forest entrance. Forest No. 9 is the most explored forest near the Morning Light Base by humans.
Thanks to the thorough clearing by the base authorities, the road leading to the entrance of Forest No. 9 is completely unobstructed, with not a single magical beast in sight.
The magical beasts are all within the forest, so the girl with glasses waiting alone at the entrance would not encounter any danger.
After entering the forest, Ethen Cole quickly made his way toward "Chaos Mountain Hill" according to the map's directions.
According to the ssage sent by Diana Nor, her destination was Chaos Mountain Hill, so the likelihood of her being there was higher.
As he rushed along the way, he occasionally encountered magical beasts, but they were easily taken down by Blux.
About ten minutes later, Ethen Cole reached the outskirts of Chaos Mountain Hill.
Almost simultaneously with Ethen Cole's arrival at the outskirts, another teammate from the Black Falcon Team, Mila Rock, also ca running.
"Hello, Senior Mila, I'm Ethen Cole." Since it was their first eting, Ethen Cole briefly introduced himself. "So, you're Ethen Cole? By the way, have you managed to contact your friend?" Mila Rock glanced at Ethen Cole and quickly approached to ask.
"Not yet."
Indeed, Ethen Cole had not been able to reach Diana Nor.
"Then she is most likely inside Chaos Mountain Hill! I'm quite familiar with Forest No. 9. There are only two places in Forest No. 9 without communication signals: one is near the Ancient Lake, and the other is the Chaos Mountain Hill area."
"Ancient Lake is located in the deepest part of Forest No. 9, where many powerful magical beasts reside. Your friend likely wouldn't choose to go there."
"Based on this deduction, the probability of her being within Chaos Mountain Hill is very high." Mila Rock, a slightly plump beauty with brown hair, held her delicate chin with her hand, pondering, her deep brown eyes filled with wisdom.
