Dilan couldn’t help but frown deeply at the sight of the three Silver treasures.
He had already expected the Aeris’ leather boots to be superior to the treasures he would obtain from the small Gate.
However, even then, it was hard to digest what he saw right now.
A leather backpack, a piece of paper that looked quite old, and a hedge shear with a wooden hilt and blades made of a bluish-dark tal appeared in front of him.
Dilan didn’t think that it was possible to get worse things than what he saw in front of him.
But it looked like his expectations had been way too high.
[Yalo Gardening Shear]
Beautiful hedge shear. Perfect for Gardening.
Slightly enhances all botanical abilities while being wielded.
Even if Dilan didn’t like to accept it, the Yalo Gardening Shear could have so use in the future.
It was unexpected, but it was truly useful to have the gardening shear. Even more so because Mira had the passive ability [Green Finger]!
‘I should give her the Gardening Shear. Maybe, it is ti to search the mountain for so herbs containing mana? I bet there will be more gardening treasures in the future…at that ti, it would be advantageous if her ability has already been upgraded a few tis!’
The more he thought about it, the better his opinion of receiving the Yalo Gardening Shear beca.
With that in mind, he looked at the next notification.
[Featherlight Backpack]
With this stylish leather backpack hiking will beco a dream.
Inscribed with Tierless Bronze rune . Decreases weight of stored objects by 25%!-.
The backpack was actually not sothing he truly required. The ores and other objects were quite heavy, but with a Strength stat of 20, it was not necessary to have the Featherlight backpack.
But that was not the case for the others. Furthermore, his backpack was half-burned, and partially torn at places owing to the heavy weights it had to carry.
As such, instead of replacing his old backpack with a new ordinary backpack, Dilan thought that he could just use this one.
He didn’t expect the Yalo Gardening Shear to be of more use than the Featherlight Backpack.
‘Will the shear have the most use for ?’ Dilan suddenly wondered as he picked up the old-looking piece of paper.
[[‘Tierless Mana replenishnt potion’]
-5g powder of Tierless Level 5 Essence crystal(uninfected)
-30ml clear water (Ph neutral)
-3g Tierrat sand/Lumina crystal powder/Mials soil
First step…]
Dilan was baffled when he read through the piece of paper that was, in fact, a parchnt containing a potion recipe.
This astonished him so much that he stopped moving as he read through the ingredients and the description on the concoction process several tis in succession.
The potency of the final product was not written on the recipe, but Dilan was utterly dumbfounded.
“If we can concoct this potion, lack of mana won’t be a problem, at all!!”
Saying that the recipe was a Godsend was an underestimation!
Even if the effectiveness of the potion was not great, every single active ability required mana. They had, at least 15 Ascenders in their group with active abilities.
If none of them had to pay attention to their mana consumption while fighting, their combat prowess would skyrocket.
And for that, it didn’t matter whether the Tierless Trash mana replenishnt potion filled up one, five or ten units of mana!
Dilan had no idea where to get his hands on the Tierrat sand or Mials soil, but after taking a look at the illuminating crystal he had pocketed, Dilan was pretty sure that it was worth a try!
‘Even if it’s not the correct crystal, who says that it won’t work! Giving it a try will prove its worth either way!’
His mood was sky-high. As such he carefully pocketed the recipe before picking up everything.
Afterward, Dilan stepped through the small permanent Gate before erging on the second floor of the Rian mountainside hospital.
Taking a few deep breaths, the air around him was stale.
Less than a day had passed since he had entered the Krendel’s Underground Valley.
However, to Dilan it felt as if so many things had changed.
His strength had reached new heights, and nurous pieces of information squird in his mind.
There was a lot for him to think about, but Dilan wanted to return to the cafeteria first.
He had a lot to tell the others, and there were still 50 Bronze Essence crystals that had to be exchanged with 10 Bronze treasures!
While stepping out of the left corridor, Dilan saw that the corpses from the second wave had already been disposed of.
At the sa ti, he noticed that the sun was already rising, which told him that more than half a day had passed since he left.
This ant he had taken less than expected, but he would certainly not grumble about it.
Walking down the stairs, he saw one of the younger Ascenders.
It was a young man, who didn’t seem to have reached the age of 20 yet.
He was holding one of the Kobold spears in his hand.
His back was fully drenched in sweat from training hard to perfect himself by repeating certain movent sequences over and over again.
Dilan liked the fact that the young man was giving his best so early in the morning.
Thus he nodded his head at him with a faint smile on his face, just for the young man to stiffen for a mont.
However, when he realized who Dilan was, the young man quickly approached him.
“H-hello Sir, welco back!” The young man even gave him a salute, while trying to hide his heavy breaths while standing erect and maintaining his posture.
If it would have been possible for him, Dilan would have waved off his hand to tell the young man that it was not necessary for him to act like this.
Unfortunately, his hands were trying to not let anything fall off.
Seeing this, the young man rushed to help in an instant.
“Sir, may I help you carry your belongings?” After seeing the distinct glint of respect in the young man’s eyes, it was impossible for Dilan to reject his help.
As such, Dilan handed over a few things. He was already tired and felt quite relieved to receive so help.
“Thanks. By the way, what’s your na?”
The young man was already on his way towards the cafeteria while carrying as much as his arms could hold when he turned around upon hearing Dilan’s voice.
“Mason, Sir. My na is Mason!” A smile covered his entire face, making it seem as if Mason was innocent.
For a mont Dilan even thought that Mason might have never seen, let alone fought a monster because his smile was simply too innocent for him to comprehend.
However, Dilan shook his head only a mont later before he smiled as they approached the cafeteria.
It didn’t seem to be locked, and one could already hear quite a few noises coming from the cafeteria as well.
In fact, the lights inside were on as well, which was quite a surprise.
‘They found the hospital’s ergency generator?’
Surprisingly, only the lights in the cafeteria were on.
If the electricity supply of the entire hospital had resud, every single light should be turned on, and attract unwanted attention, whether it was monsters or hostile humans.
But Dilan simply presud that Kathrine and the others had found a solution and made everything work.
Thus, he entered the cafeteria with a calm mind.
What entered his sight were several fridges and freezers that were located next to the kitchen.
Several won had turned into butcherers, wielding polished Kobold weapons to dismantle several huge War Krendels.
“Did you guys already start testing the War Krendel’s at?” Dilan asked, slightly dumbfounded.
Bianne was much faster than he expected. Mason just nodded his head before he began to praise Bianne’s cooking skills.
“The at is really tender and is perfect for a at broth. Bianne is such a good cook. She told us that we should be able to replenish our mana faster if we consu the at of higher leveled monsters as well!
Bianne is just a Culinary Goddess!! I’m happy to taste and eat the food cooked by her every single day!”
Mason looked like he would salivate just at the thought of food prepared by Bianne.
Dilan thought that her cooking skills were really good, but it was not like she was a professional cook. As such, he felt that Mason was just a little bit hyper, and excited which was why he exaggerated a little bit.
‘Well, I’m happy to have a cook here as well. So it shouldn’t be bad to praise her occasionally.’
Shrugging his shoulders, Dilan kept looking through the rows of people.
Ailee and Yvonne seed to be missing, which was a weird combo. But even before he could ask Mason what was going on, Kathrine and Oliver found him.
“Dilan!! You’re back!” The mont his na was shouted out, everyone turned toward him.
His appearance was anything but clean. However, that was not sothing anyone cared about because they knew that he had been fighting with his life on the line, for their sake, at that!
Just one look at his clothes was enough to tell them that he had been in a lot of action.
His clothes and hair were in extrely bad condition. This was actually not hard to understand, and considering that so parts of the skin on his face looked freshly healed, nobody even thought about asking Dilan if he found sothing interesting in the Krendel’s Underground Valley.
This was even more so the case for the Ascenders that were ready to risk their lives every single day. They wanted to know how secure it was to enter the Krendel’s Underground Valley, and how useful the permanent Gate would be for them.
But the longer one looked at Dilan, the more obvious was the fact that he got much stronger than he had been before!
Less than 24 hours had passed, and it felt as if he had improved by leaps and bounds.
Yet, while only a handful of Survivors believed that this might be dangerous because Dilan might abuse his power, the others were overjoyed by the fact that he improved so fast in the Krendel’s Underground Valley!
