Chapter 147: The Teglyca Salamanders (1/2)

After Eden had prepared the group for the mission, they immediately embarked on their journey.

Crossing the perilous hills and traversing the risky mountains, the group slowly advanced to their destination.

Two days later, they panted as they had not rested for even a minute. It was non-stop walking, which was also difficult for cultivators.

They didn't give up, though. After fighting off a bunch of low leveled demonic beasts, the group crossed the last section of the forest.

”Wow,” awed Archer.

His recurve bow dangled on his back as he let himself fall on the grassy floor.

The others were also amazed by the spectacle they were facing. All except Eden, who seemed to have been here before. This was not strange as the cultivator would have probably tried his luck in his younger days.

In front of the group was a long grassy plain. Beyond that, however, was a large decrepit wall that was incredibly tall, high enough to challenge the eyes of the group.

The wall extended beyond their sight and appeared to be on a curve. Looking at this, Jake could understand that it was the walls of the Weeping Town.

From the outdated designs on the wall, Jake could envision how beautiful and gallant it was decades ago. Now, it was reduced to a mere spectacle.

”Oooh! There are others,” said River as she flashed out her alert black eyes.

As the group rested on the soft grass, they could see other tents closer to the walls of the town.

A young blonde-haired woman among the group that looked identical to River observed the tents.

She gave out what she could observe, ”They have been here for days, while some seemed to have just arrived.”

Despite being of average height, she was able to see far away and spot the different people in the tent.

Responding to her words, Eden kicked his legs in the air, ”That's to be expected, Sea. We are not the only ones.”

His light green eyes soared the surrounding. To no one's surprise, other groups had begun to spill out of the forest, just minutes after them.

Ignoring them, Eden checked the status of his team. He examined all of them.

Eden was a simple, yet not simple man. Years ago, he had decided to only recruit one person to join his team. That was Archer!

The third to join was the usually silent one, apart from Jake, Renee. Renee was one of the important members of the group.

She had a face that scared away most men. Yet, it could not be denied that she was a beauty, a beauty that didn't care about her body.

She kept her dark brown hair short, and always wore a cloak around her to hide her large weapon. Nonetheless, she was still attractive to the eye, just that her strict demeanor chased off most of them.

The fourth and fifth were the unique pair of blonde-haired sisters, River and Sea.

If not for their similar appearance, Eden would have wondered whether they were actually sisters. One was an excessively free person, while the other was uninspired just like her soulless black eyes.

The last person Eden recruited was Jake, a young man whose talent was rare. Eden had spotted this gem when he floated to the beach unconscious. From there, he had carefully nurtured a respectful relationship, which brought them to the present.

Among them, Jake was the youngest, while the two sisters were in their twenties along with Renee. Archer was in his forties, if he had to guess, it would forty-two(42)
