After arriving at the end of the grand-canyon, where their head almost touched the concealed ceiling ground, ascend stairs were seen that lead to the upper land.
The stairs were made of mud that eventually hardened to beco a rough-looking paving stone. It was big enough for people to walk side by side.
On the left side of the stairs, a magic crystal the size of the palm was embedded on the earth wall. It glows and keeps absorbing the energy around it.
The magic crystal was used to remove the ground at the end of the stairs that blocked and concealed the stairs from the outside world.
As Desmond and his group arrived in front of the stair, they stopped for a mont. He squatted to check and observed the stairs and the crystal condition.
Leaving this for six months without any maintenance, it seems the magic crystal was still fine even after it kept absorbing the energy and was rarely used.
As for the stairs, Desmond waved his hand, causing the surrounding energy to gather and followed his gesture. Forming a wave of water from the natural energy that cleaned the dirty stairs that were full of bloodstains and so mud.
Control Elent: tal Sword.
At the sa ti, on Desmond's right hand, the natural energy began to gather at one point, eventually forming a shadow of a long sword.
The sword was made of pure tal, with a simple guard as a divider between the blade and the grip without any additional decorations.
*swoosh*
Desmond suddenly slashed to the side where the grass was cut into half with a wave from his sword. The sword was sharp enough to injure the enemy even it was not tampered with by hamr and fire.
"It's a bit light when compared to a real sword, but the sharpness is enough to pierce a beast's skin," Desmond comnted after examining the sword he created.
After using the elental sword for a long ti, Desmond concludes the difference between the real sword and the sword made by the nature elent lies in the swing power.
In the next mont, the group then continued to move forward and eventually arrived at the outside of the world.
Desmond looked around and found they were in the between of small hills and so cactus plants used as a decoy for the entrance.
The hotness from the surrounding area and the warm light that directly shone on his skin, made Desmond feel alive and refreshed after hiding in the underground and relying on a fake light for the past few months.
On the other hand, while waiting for their master to familiarize himself with the situation, no one dares to talk. They waited while holding their breath and staring at their master.
This was the first ti their actual leader led the group for the hunt, replacing Felix that they usually rely on.
They gulped their saliva with sweat pouring down from his neck, clearly showing they were nervous. What they feared most was they beco a burden for their master.
On the other hand, Desmond was closing his eyes, trying to enjoy the sunbathing on his body. He was happy to be alive and see the sun again. Only after a few minutes, he opens his eyes back and glance at the surrounding.
System, scan, Desmond commanded.
[Scanning the area...]
The mont the transparent screen popped out on his view, he could feel the system used a bit of his energy that spread around which made him could also feel the living being in a radius of 1000km.
Until this mont, Desmond still could not find any record of the spells that used their energy to scan the surroundings sa as the system. He only knows a similar spell such as scanning an object that was used by his mother back then.
[Scan complete!]
[Displaying the result and converting as an object on the map!]
As soon as the scanning process ended, many red dots appeared on his map. Just looking at the number of the red dots, Desmond felt a headache.
Among them, which one is a wyvern? Desmond spoke inwardly. The problem with his map was it could not differentiate between a human and a beast.
As for a specific beast, unless Desmond has fought against it, there was no way system used random energy as a variable to find similar energy.
A wyvern is a beast that has a dragon similarity. Its have horns and tails. As for the origin, I'm not sure, but the knowledge from my past life said a wyvern was a descendant from a viper while a dragon was a descendant from a huge serpent.
Both of them lived on the mountain, but Dragon always lived alone. They dominated the entire area while wyvern lived in a group, Desmond thought.
After sorting the information from his past life, he asked his subordinates to confirm and found the information was only a bit different at the origins. In conclusion, they lived in the mountains or hills.
On the other hand, Desmond's subordinates were a bit surprised by his sudden question. The cold image of their master was slowly lted as he talked with them without a hint of arrogance or bossy.
It feels like he treated them as a precious person, not a tool for his purpose.
"Did you know where the nearest mountain or hills that have a Wyvern Nest or sothing related?" In Desmond's opinion, his subordinates have traveled most of the outer beasts' territory to hunt a beast, which ans they had more knowledge than him.
Seeing and hearing were totally different even if he had a map and system. The experiences and the feeling of being in that place could not be judged by only looking at his 3d map.
"From what I can tell, the mountain should be around this place, young master," at the sa ti, while discussing the wyvern location, Desmond already made a miniature map based on his 3d map.
His subordinate pointed on the map at a place far on the north, where a jungle was full of a swamp. The jungle seems a habitat suited for the beast who likes to hide and water from the look.
The gazes of Desmond's subordinates seem hesitant after seeing the location. There is a possibility they could et a massive predator.
With their strength, normal animals such as anaconda, crocodile, and the others have less threat but when compared to giant beasts from the Beast race, especially a Basilisk that really liked to live in that environnt, they were an ant in its eyes!
Not a ntion a Wyvern, who classified as only B rank threat for humans, even a Basilisk who had strength lowered than Wyvern was comparable with the strength of two 2nd class swordsman, enough to scare them away.
From the first, it was already a bold idea to hunt a wyvern considering their numbers, but when they rembered their young master also a dual-class, it seems there was a slight hope on this hunt!
Unlike swordsman, a mage was a weapon for mass killing!
