Chapter 99: First Mission -I (2/2)

We will think what to do after we are done with these two things.”

”Okay, then where are we going to stay?” Philip asked.

”We will decide but the resources we can gather.”

Even though, he can make a camp with resources of the wilderness, Sam couldn't find any of them here. The tress here are only suppliers of the wood, but there are no vines or any other things suitable to make long ropes.

Even though, the bark is a little on the soft side, it isn't easy to do make a rope out of that.

To have a camp, he needs to see, if he can gather any more teammates.

So, three of them went back to the crowd, who are now sitting down and talking with smiles. The people from the Falcon Cliff city all sat together and when Sam and the duo following him went there.

The weird trio are sitting separately seemingly not interested in joining their conversation.

”What are your plans?” Sam asked Hawk and others.

Hawk looked at Sam and said. ”I don't know. I think we can wait for the mission first and see what type of missions there will be. After that we will plan on what to do.”

Even before Sam could reply, Philip said.

”We want to make a camp and have a place to stay and rest anyone wants to join us?” He is pretty straight forward. The rest of them looked at them and then exchanged glances. Kelly is the first one to agree.

”I don't mind.” After some thought, Hawk said.

”Sure. But where do you want to camp?” The rest of them also agreed.

”We found a stream nearby, so we can find a place near it to make a camp.” Again, Philip took it up on himself to say. So, even without his effort Sam now has six teammates.

Just as they were about to move, Sam felt some one tugging his vest. He turned around to look at Jasmine's innocent face.

”Where did you go?” She asked. From her tone, she must have been looking for him.

”Nowhere, come follow us.” Sam said and now he has seven teammates.

Soon, they came near the stream. But Sam didn't let them camp too near and moved them 50 meters away from the stream.

There is a considerable area of open space surrounded by trees in this place.

Sam looked at the crowd and said.

”Since, we are on the same boat, I will tell you how I feel about this competition…” And explained his opinion just like how he did with Philip and Jack. After letting them digest the info properly and giving them a chance to contemplate, he said.

”Even though, you guys might think that it will waste your spiritual energy to make a camp and you will be having some hard time in missions. But in long term, I think it is necessary to have a place t rest properly.”

After some though, everyone agreed and Sam asked.

”Okay then, I need to know your abilities to be more efficient. One by one tell me you abilities.”

”I am wind and water dual elemental mage.” Hawk said first.

”I am earth and fire dual elemental mage.” Kelly gave a surprise to everyone. Because, nobody knew that she is a dual elemental mage at all.

Sam felt even more weird. He has been meeting this dual elemental mages and warrior mages too often, considering that they are supposed to be rare.

”I am a warrior, swordsman.”

”I am also a warrior, Sabre wielder.” Drew and Ray said. Sam didn't ask Philip and Jack since he already knew his abilities.

Finally, he looked at Jasmine who is silent all along.

”I am metal element mage.” Sam nodded.

Metal element mages have slight disadvantage as most of their attacks are close range and many of them use weapons. They are more like warriors. The metal element is one of less versatile elements.

He thought for a moment and said.

”Kelly, Hawk. Both of you are responsible for making shelter. Since the soil is dry it will be hard to mould it, so Hawk, you will use your water element to make it gain some moisture just enough to mould it.

Kelly, use your earth element and raise walls using these seven trees as corners. Don't worry about the roof.It will take a lot of energy from both of you if you do it.” Both of them nodded and went to work

Sam took the remaining people along with him. He started cutting down the tress one by one and split them along vertically. All this time he used his wind element. Since, his control is high, he used minimum energy to make maximum work

Soon, the remaining guys came while carrying the wood to keep them as room.

Finally, Sam took a large bunch of leaves and covered the gap along with them. To finish the roof of the house.
