Chapter 113: Eve (1) (1)
Starting from the next day, tower climbing began.
We proved that the main partys strength had returned with the 25th-floor quest. Anytng had no reason to hesitate. We imdiately entered the rift of space and ti.
[Floor 26.]
[Mission Type
Escort]
[Objective
Protect the designated individual.]
The field was a desert.
The missions content was just as expected.
Beneath the scorching sun, I was able to reunite with Priasis in the desert. Priasis walked through the desert aimlessly, her body covered in a thin layer of silk.
Arent you dead?
I said with a smile.
It had only been a day for , but a considerable amount of ti had passed for her. Priasiss gaze turned towards us.
As you can see Im alive. Although I was prepared. Its been tough in its own way.
Priasis spoke with a tired voice.
Her once bulging bag was now only half full. I tossed a bundle I had brought from the waiting room. Priasis hesitantly accepted it.
It contains heat-resistant potions, water, and food. Use them well.
I owe you a debt of gratitude
Priasis lifted the lid of the heat-resistant potion with sweaty hands.
I didnt create these items. Anytng must have studied the basics of desert survival and ordered the alchemist from the 2nd floor to make them. There was no need for information manipulation anymore.
Im seeing this woman again. Whats the mission this ti?
Its simple. Follow Priasis and protect her. You know the destination, right? Dont get lost.
Ive seen it in my dreams several tis. Just follow the signs.
Priasis pointed to the endless horizon beneath the high dunes.
Sign? I dont see it.
Anyway, it didnt matter as long as she knew the direction.
Lets drink these first.
We consud the heat-resistant potion.
[Tips/Special Potion Heat-Resistant Potion prevents dehydration and heatstroke. However, its effectiveness may be reduced during vigorous activities.]
A refreshing sensation flowed through our bodies.
Despite the scorching sun, I felt much better. I threw the empty bottle into a corner and reached for the hilt of my sword. Beyond the neighboring hill, a distinct cry could be heard.
Karrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrk!
Theyre coming to greet us.
[Level 24 Lizardman] x 15
A ssage indicating the appearance of enemies appeared.
Neryssa went straight up the hill and said, Theyre in better shape than last ti. They seem to be elite soldiers.
Its perfect for post-al exercise.
Get ready, everyone.
Swoosh.
I drew my sword.
Kiaaaah!
The torn upper bodies of the lizardn flew with pitiful sounds.
The 18th one. It didnt take more than three minutes to deal with all of them. We encountered a few other groups along the way, but we defeated them one by one and continued through the desert.
The Imperial Guards werent even this bad.
Priasis, who had been watching, raised her head.
Half a day passed like this. After crossing three hills,
[Stage Clear!]
[Velkist (), Neryssa () leveled up!]
[Reward
50,000G, Essence of the Desert]
[MVP
Han ()]
The stage clear ssage appeared.
I sheathed my sword. Night was falling on the yellow desert. Light enveloped us. I said to Priasis, who was looking at .
See you on the next floor.
Understood, Han. On the next floor.
Priasis lightly smiled and waved her hand.
The background gradually blurred, and we returned through the rift of space and ti.
I dont understand the aning of this mission. Is it just about following the girl around?
Girl? Be careful with your words, Velkist.
Neryssa scolded him, and Velkist sulked.
How great can she be? Is she the princess of the empire or sothing?
Thats correct.
Obviously not huh? What did you say?
Velkists face turned bewildered.
I chuckled and left the rift of space and ti.
The next day, the exploration continued.
This ti, the field was a desert as well. The difference was that it was nightti instead of dayti. So, this ti, we needed cold-resistant potions to ward off freezing temperatures, even though we were in the desert.
There were similarities with the previous encounters.
Sowhere, Lizardn appeared, and we engaged in a fierce battle with them.
As we ventured deeper into the desert, their numbers increased.
Kirk! Those who disrupt the order, kill them, kill them!
Kara-ralalak!
[Lizardn have entered a frenzied state!]
They were not just simple enemies.
They rushed towards us with clear hatred in their hearts.
Monsters were rampaging all over the continent. What happened in the desert village was just a small piece of the whole. Priasis looked at the scattered Lizardn corpses and said,
We dont have much ti. We need to hurry.
Priasis opened her mouth.
Her silver hair shimred in the moonlight.
If my dream is correct, theres less than ten years until destruction.
You said you didnt know what the keys were for. Why collect them?
Its a kind of proof. The keys are items passed down only in the empires founding myth. If I can obtain them, they will lend
their power.
If they will.
The Assinis family.
Priasis said with a determined expression.
They are one of the four great families and the empires strongest military force. I made a promise to them. To prove my worth. To do that, I have to make the impossible possible.
And collecting the keys is that impossible task?
Thats right.
The answer ca without hesitation.
