Mr. Jonathan, who is currently busy with his work, Coincidentally, he opened his communication watch to view the message. He was surprised to see the message from Zack. Next, after looking at the message
A hint of light flashes in his eyes;
"Zack is worried that his strength is not enough to contend with warriors from higher cities." Jonathan thought to himself.
Then again, Zack's worries are also related to the Master's test.
The next second, Mr. Jonathan smiled. He seeped his consciousness into the storage ring. Where there is a dark ball flickering with purple light all over it.
Looking at the object, coincidentally, this thing also fell into my hands. This thing will help Zack raise his strength to another level. "Before the start of the event, I must make another trip back to outpost 1012." Jonathan muttered to himself.
Jonathan decided to hand over this thing to Zack. This is something he obtained personally, not given by his master. So he knows that his master won't stop him from giving this thing to Zack.
After making up his mind, Jonathan sent a message to Zack by saying, "Don't worry, the thing you need will arrive before the event."
"Master has decided to go there." I don't know whether I can go along with him or not. " Jonathan thought to himself.
Then, retracting his mind from these thoughts, he continues to do his work
....
(From MC's POV)
Dinner time, James Lockwood Residence,
"Uncle, other than Monster Zone, is there any place where I can train myself?" I asked while looking at Uncle James.
I know he hates it when someone starts to talk while eating. But surprisingly, the uncle is patient.
Mr. James observes Zack with a calm face. Zack doesn't know that his discussion with Mr. Arthur has already reached Mr. James' ears.
Mr. James knows that Zack is worried about the Crimson Hall Event. Unlike Star Tower, there might be an open battle. The duel can also be viewed directly.
So there is a slight possibility that Zack may come across strong opponents. He discussed it with Arthur. The only thing that could help Zack at this time was to find a way to improve his strength.
Right now, after hearing Zack's question. Mr. James thought of something. He knows a place that is a den of bandits. That place is quite close to Tier-8 City.
Due to natural obstructions, the officials weren't able to solve this banditry. But from time to time, the city lord recruited some brave warriors for a mission. which includes the killing of bandits and clearing up their dens.
After thinking about it, he looked at Zack and said, "There is a place where you can hone your skills. But that place might have Trainee Warriors"
Hearing his words, I began to think.
Trainee Warriors are the same as Class-3 Monsters.
If I burst out with all my strength, I can take care of the Initial Trainee Warriors. But above such a level, it is impossible.
Then, without knowing about the place, I don't want to make a decision.
So I asked, "Uncle, can you tell me about the place?"
Mr. James answered, "There is a bandit group creating problems for Tier-8 City."
Then he added, "The bandit group is hiding in a forest located outside of the city. Very often they are involved in robbery and killings. "
My eyes lit up with surprise upon hearing about bandits. This might be the right place for me to test my skills. Fighting against monsters is one thing, but I want to know the human heart.
These nefarious bandits might be the right option.
Then I thought of something and asked, "Uncle, If they are really hiding in a forest, Why don't they send strong warriors to eradicate them? "
Mr. James chuckled. He expected this question from him.
Shaking his head, Mr. James commented, "This forest is not something that anyone can enter. But these bandits found some way to live there. "
"Interesting!" I muttered.
Without waiting for Zack to reply, Mr. James continues to say, "This forest has a nickname called the insect zone. Like Monster Zone, this forest is heaven for some insect species. "
This is something new to me. I had seen some insect monsters previously. But what my uncle is describing is something new.
Mr. Jameseasily saw through Zack's thoughts. He commented, "I know you are comparing it with Class Monsters. But these insects were not classified as monsters. They don't have a long lifespan. But what makes them deadly is their venom. There is a record that some trainee warriors who were bitten by these insects were found dead. "
Then looking at Zack, he further added, "That's why no one is willing to go there. After realizing this, the city lord started to recruit people. And these people often try to venture into the forest. But the majority of them died. Some found a few traces of bandits, that's all."
I commented, "So no one succeeded in killing them."
Mr. James answered, "Officials often kill those bandits who walk out of the forest. The officials built a few camps outside of the forest. If any bandits come out, they will meet a miserable end. "
There is such a thing, by hearing Uncle's words. I can only imagine that the operation is not small. I heard these bandits usually have treasures inside their den.
On the other hand, Granny Park didn't stop the two of them from talking. She was used to watching them like this. She finished her food without waiting for them.
Next, I didn't answer directly. I continue to finish the food on my plate. I'll talk to him after finishing the food.
Mr. James, who is watching Zack's actions, wasn't surprised. Venturing into a deadly insect forest is not a small thing. If it were for another young warrior, he wouldn't have any hope. But Zack is different he has lightning element.
Next, he too continues to eat food.
