Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 186: 2nd trip to wilderness

(From MCʼs Perspective)

The City of Venen,

I came to this city early this morning. Because I have to reach the wider plains this time. So it would be better for me if I ventured into the wilderness as early as possible. In this way, I can avoid other bad adventurer groups.

Currently, the air car was flying towards the entrance gate that leads to the wilderness. And this time, I donʼt have to go through procedures like last time. I have purchased the entry/exit pass from the adventurerʼs unionʼs online store. It saved me a lot of time from visiting the adventurer union.

While the air car is moving at a good speed toward the destination, I seeped my consciousness into the storage bracelet. Before coming here, I sold the herbs and potions that I had collected from previous wildernesses loot.

I made good money out of those items. But, apart from the black dagger, I didnʼt find any valuable materials. The rest of the metal boxes had some miscellaneous herbs, which brought me good money, along with other potions.

Currently, there is a dazzling object suspended above the ground.

A quick glint flashed through my eyes when I saw the black dagger.

This time, I will use the black dagger as my weapon. My storage space is completely clean except for this dagger. Previously, I threw away those looted storages braceletʼs. I donʼt want to get caught selling suspicious items in the market.

As a wizard student, I can only do limited things. Itʼs already great for me to earn money from selling herbs and potions. I thought it was better to continue this way. Then I retracted my mind from the storage bracelet and looked outside.

Right now, itʼs 6 AM. My eyes were set on pedestrians on the street. The hunters usually congregate here on weekends. But Iʼm pretty much on time this time. As a result, I can only see fewer people on the ground.

A few minutes later, I reached the destination. The air car made a turn in the mid-air and slowly descended upon the platform. When it touched the ground, I stepped out of the car.

After paying the amount, I strolled towards the gate. This time, I wore a basic adventurer suit, and I purposely avoided wearing the schoolʼs mage robe. Last time, it raised a lot of eyebrows. This time I want to be as unattractive as possible.

This basic adventurer suit is nothing but leather pants and a shirt. The leather shirt is full sleeve, which Iʼm quite comfortable with. I purchased this basic suit from Adventurer Unionʼs online store.

This basic suit can withstand the attack of average first-order monsters. So for new hunters, this basic suit is actually a life-saving item. After approaching the city guard, I accessed my communication watch. A white color pass hovered above the screen.

Seeing that, the city guard stepped forward to verifying the date. Then he allowed me to enter a couple of seconds later. I found no one beside me, which brought a small smile on my face.

But I suspect this wonʼt be the case of a few hours. I halted my movements after walking out of the gate and checked out the surroundings. My alertness level rose suddenly. I know from this moment on I wonʼt get much rest.

After seeing there was no one here, I dashed towards the wilderness. Iʼm going to travel through the same route that I took last time. My initial goal is to cross the outer area border as soon as possible.

Only after entering the inner area, I will encounter more monsters. While rushing, Iʼm also monitoring the surroundings. Because there is no shortage of robbers here. Some stay behind, purposely to set a trap and wait for the hunters like me to loot.

I came across lush green vegetation. I recalled that my previous route was a narrowed sand path. There is a possibility for new overgrown vegetation to occupy the narrow path.

Suddenly, I came to a halt. Ahead, I spotted a lot of weeds. As I suspected earlier, vegetation has covered this path. In one way, itʼs also a good thing for me. This shows no one has used this path in recent days.

So, there is less possibility of a trap here. I take out the black dagger to cut down the overgrown bushes. Then I slowly strode forward.

Time passed, ”Phew,” I breathe in relief as I saw the edge of the outer area a few hours later.

This time, I have avoided unnecessary trouble. I didnʼt come across any monsters or suspicious hunters. I revealed a small smile, looking at the edge at the same time. I didnʼt let my guard down.

I consider this edge a place separating the outer area from the inner area of the wilderness. It also acts as a meeting point for the adventurers ʼ teams. So, I donʼt want to encounter a new team at this point in time.

I accessed the map via a communication watch. Last time, I hunted the monsters on hilly peaks. Should I follow the same routine? Or I should make my way for the wider plains beyond that peak.

A lot of thoughts come to mind. I have reached a point where I need to make a good decision. I believe those crazy wizards must have visited the wider plains. What made them visit such a place?

Obviously, there are many monsters roaming around the place. A quick glint flashes through my eyes. This time, I have to reach the wider plains. My eyes are setting on the map. Iʼm looking for a viable route to travel.

I wonʼt use the common path again. Because it is very common to encounter the adventurer group again. Adventurers who can hunt the monsters on wider plains might have greater strength.

I believe they are at least level-3 wizards. A hint of apprehension appeared in my eyes. I donʼt know whether Iʼm chewing more than I could. But in order to improve my strength, I must take this risk.
