Chapter 8 – Let's Finish This Quest I (part 5)
As soon as I arrived at home base, Yugo notified me to straight head to the meeting tent, Shyan and his team had already returned and gave a report.
“ We circled around this level and found no path to the next level, it looks like this is indeed the last level of this dungeon. The problem was the area near the big tree, the ogres had made it into a settlement. “
“ Looks like we do have to deal with the ogres. “, Murdock put a hand on his forehead.
" Then what else did you find? “
Shyan pointed at several points on the map he made., “ These points are the beast gathering areas and near us there are 3 beast gathering areas, and one of them is in the path we will be going through, then here is their closest location. “
“ That means we just need to focus on the ones that get in our way. And in this point, the beasts in that place has moved to near the stream around here. “, And all eyes turned towards me and some of them let out their breaths.
" What is it? What happened?? “, a confused Shyan asked their reaction just now.
“ Yesterday Hyuga brought some support team members and brought back some fruits, and that's exact location they attacked yesterday. “
" Are you reckless or what?! Bringing newbies to the beast lair. “
“ Don't worry, I checked beforehand and because of that we can get additional food ingredients. “
" And just now Hyuga's brought back another brown board and big serpents, our food supplies are safe for the next seven days. “
Out of the thirteen points, four are the territories controlled by the apes, two are the territories of the gray wolves, one is the saber tiger, three are the territories of the orcs, two are the territories of the hobgoblins and goblins, and lastly the largest territory that surrounds almost all the great trees is the territory of the ogres.
“ Okay, in that case we still have time to carry out this quest. Reon and Silvet, I need you to take a few parties to attack the orcs in front of us, the rest will do as we planned before. “
Murdock proposed the plan and we agreed. After that, I meet up with Jil and his teams who were working on the wood that had been cut down, then I meet with Rag and several other people, including Walter, then I returned to my tent. While I was working on some things, Shyan came up to me.
" You're planning something right, Hyuga? “
“ Huh? What do you mean?? “
" Don't pretend 'huh' to me. Silvet had asked me to keep an eye on you, and afraid that you were up to something else strange. “
“... I've been caught red-handed apparently. I want to ask you, once the dungeon core is destroyed, what will happen? “
“ The Dungeon will be death, some Dungeon will be gone in a few days. Beasts will not be born again in here without a dungeon core. “
I took out a few objects and showed them to Shyan.
“ Here are ingredients for potions and others, then fruits that only exist in dungeons. You got all this here? “
I nodded my head, “ This dungeon is still a young dungeon, but it has interesting resources. I plan to gather all the resources that we can collect. “
“ You know the saying 'your greed can kill you in a dungeon.'”
" Don't worry, I will only touch what my hands can reach and will still plan to go home safely. All of us come home safely… ”
" You have any other hunch? I still can't be sure about believing on the hunch will work, but Silvet and the others seem to really believe in your hunch. “
“ Before fighting the ogres, I want to be well prepared, including sufficient stamina, and all I can do is supporting from behind, including providing resources. Oh hobgoblins and goblins in the southwest, what do you think about them? Also is there's no treasure that you found during the reconnaissance? “
“ There are quite a number of them, most of them are armed. And it's a shame we didn't get to track it down any treasures, this level was really vast for the four of us to cover every single place. “
“ Alright then, I will bring some members to attack the goblins. “
“ I understand what you're worried about, I'll convey it to Silvet. “
Shyan left my room and left me alone, " Bent, are you there? “
Bent entered into the tent and sat in front of me while carrying something in the pouch he was carrying, “ Here are the reports and items you asked for. “
He gave me some sheets of paper and the big bag he had brought earlier. I asked him to watch over a large tree and inspect the cave where the monkeys were spending the night, as well as some of the surrounding areas.
“ As you might expect, there is something on top of that big tree. The ogres don't even dare to go near it, and the big tree has a strange red fruit, I've written the description there. Then the cave in the east and around it, I've checked and found a few things, but not much of a use at the moment. ”
" Continue with your task, I will report it to Silvet tomorrow and be careful...", Bent left my tent and I read the report he handed over..
“ Looks like this will be troublesome...”
