BXBX NOVEL Chapter 92 - Part 2: Investigation
Starting from finding a safe passage to travel. A few hours later, "it\'s enough to reach the other side" Mr. Craig Dawson commented.. They found a safe passage. He sounded optimistic about it.
Mr. James is meticulous in his work. Though, they found a route. He is eager to analyze all the aspects. He is visualizing the area with all worst-case scenarios.
A few minutes later,
"Alright, there will be no problem. There won\'t be any Monsters activity in that passage" Mr. James answered. Hearing that, Mr. Craig Dawson nodded. Both of them then started to drive back to Station town (aka Black Forest Train station).
On the way, Mr. James\'s sci-fi notified him. He looked at the message. He didn\'t expect to receive a message from Zack. It\'s still Mid-day. The message is not detailed. It said that He finished with his work. Now, He is waiting for me. Mr. James sent a quick reply to that Message.
Mr. James doesn\'t want to pick up Zack right now. He doesn\'t want Mr. Craig to find out about Zack\'s abilities.
A few hours later,
After dropping Mr. Craig Dawson at the station town. Then, Mr. James drove back alone. Mr. Craig Dawson has work to do. He is going to call back his team.
Then they will be preparing things for the Exploration journey. In meantime, Mr. James will arrange things for Zack to stay in this town.
At first, He thought, it\'s going to be a four-day trip. But, now with exploration plan. It might get extended. He doesn\'t know how to convince Zack. He knew Zack\'s nature. If there is nothing to do. He won\'t stay in this place.
Meanwhile, Zack is musing about his situation.
"There is no one here. How good it would be if I stay here and started to hunt Class Monsters for Blood Cultivation." I commented in my heart. After, the cancelation of the assignment.
There is nothing much I can do in Red Stone city. Other than, library and Training Chambers there is nothing to learn.
Right now, I need Strength. For that, I need to cultivate a lot. These days, I\'m actually spending more time in the library and the Gravity Chamber than cultivation. I knew the difficulty of Lightning Practice and Blood Practice.
It would be good if I stay near Mountain Liz. But, it won\'t be possible all the time. I need to find a Lightning affinity stone, with it I can level up to Peak Trainee Apprentice in no time.
Then, I will focus on Blood Cultivation with peace of mind. In the future, By having a double breakthrough to the Peak level. I can obliterate the Black Tree Monster with ease.
As I was contemplating about my depressing situation,
I heard a sound from the distance. I knew Uncle James had arrived. "What happened?" Mr. James questioned him. As he stepped out of the vehicle. Hearing that, I looked at him "I got beaten" I replied with a mirthless smile.
Mr. James hastens towards Zack. He started to check his injury.
Uncle James asked, "Are you hurt?" He seems tense. I looked at his tense face and said, "Three ribs fractured at the back. Apart from that, there is no injury." Uncle James looked at me in direct eyes "How did you know?" He asked me in surprise.
Hearing that, I got stunned. I didn\'t respond sooner to that. But, deep down in my heart. I commented," Thanks to perception ability, I could trace the fractured part." But, outside I had an expressionless face.
Then I took a moment and replied, "I\'m feeling immense pain in the back. So, that\'s why I felt" Hearing that, Mr. James nodded. It felt the reasonable answer to him. Then, I started to remove my tent. A few minutes later. I entered the vehicle with him.
Mr. James started to drive back the vehicle.
We were on the way to station town. Uncle James asked, "So, How did it go?" hearing that, I don\'t know how to answer that question.
He pre-planned everything from the beginning. Now, he is asking me like he knew nothing about it. " I don\'t know whether to laugh or cry" I commented in my heart.
"You should have told me about it," I replied with a genuine answer. It is genuine. If I had forehand knowledge, I wouldn\'t have gotten injured. Hearing a straight forward answer from Zack. Mr. James had a smile on his face.
Uncle James said, "I knew you would say that. But remember, at times you will be facing a difficult situation. Without knowing anything" Then he started to lecture Zack. He explained that having Mid-level power alone, it\'s not enough to kill a Class 2 Monster.
On the contrary, Class 2 Monster can kill Peak Trainee Apprentice with ease. It\'s not simple evolution from Class 1 to Class 2. Not only had their strength increased. Their intelligence also has grown with it.
But, the Black Tree Monster is a Special Class 2 Monster. Unlike, other Monsters. It can\'t move.
So, it is a good training partner for Zack. He wanted Zack to understand the level difference. It\'s impossible to skip a level and kill a higher-level Monster.
While Mr. James is explaining. To that Zack has a different view about it.
I agree with all the points that Uncle James explained to me. Except for the last part. I don\'t think. It\'s impossible to skip a level. It\'s possible to skip the level.
If you have a double breakthrough like me. Even, these days I\'m dreaming about having a triple breakthrough.
Physical Strength, Magical Strength, and Soul Strength.
If I get my hands on the Soul Cultivation Method. I will cultivate to have triple Breakthrough. Then, I will kill a higher-level Monster with ease.
The Passion flame burned in Zack\'s eyes at the thought of that idea.
