Chapter 144 (2/2)
Ian, who had no idea that quests related to the Holy Grail were activated here and there, firstly assumed that there were NPCs or monsters that had their eye on the Holy Grail
Since it was impossible for a normal user to know of the existence of the Holy Grail if it wasn't for the quest
And that wasn't exactly a wrong assumption either
Even if other users were deducted, NPCs that were after the Holy Grail like Ian thought existed
Ian asked towards hellaim
”Leader, how are you going to move now?”
With the king's cohts were to help Ian just up to the Exploration of the Historical Site of shi+kar quest
As he had no idea whether they would continue to help him even afterwards, he had asked
And it was just as Ian thought
”Us royal knights must meet the second party and build the front line of the front now, Viscount”
”I see Where will the front line be built?”
hellaim's words continued
”We do not know yet By tossing and turning with the Kaimon Empire Army, the front line will probably be formed”
Ian nodded his head
”I see”
And he diligently put his brain to work
'Then we need to occupy a base closest to the place the ar at in order to protect it safely…'
The Lotus Guild had grown at a blinding rate during that tiuilds now, but despite that, it wasn't a fighting power that could enter this quickly into the central continent
Since, couilds in the top 10, it was still the difference between an adult and a child
'No, rather than overdoing it and proceeding with the quest, it '
Ian, who finished organizing his thoughts, quickly organized his equipuild members over
”Fiolan, froerous”
At Ian's words, Fiolan asked with a puzzled expression
”Why's that?”
”It seems that it will hts now”
And Fiolan suddenly wore a flustered expression
”Hul…”
Herz was just as surprised
”Yo, there's only ten of us and there's no way that we can occupy and guard a base with this fighting power It will be hard enough to even just hunt the fieldpower”
Herz's words were an obvious
Since the average level of the ten guild ht noas around the mid-120s, but the levels of the field monsters were at 140 no matter hoas
Ian had an outrageous PvE ability, but the fact that it wasn't enough was the reality
”That's why, I think for noe need to raise our levels a bit while hunting”
Fiolan asked with a quizzical voice
”Hunt? The quest was shared with us as well right now, soit pop up… Don't we need to occupy a base as quickly as possible? There's even a time limit”
However, Ian shook his head
Noaround so rashly right noas too dangerous
He decided instead that it was better to grow as rave, where, on top of beco familiar with it, their first discoverer's buff overlapped twice, and they could obtain 4 times the EXP
'It's the saet the Holy Grail stolen from us and fail the quest'
Ian opened his mouth
”Fiolan You know that with this fighting power, if we go out and meet a Heroic-rank field boss, then ill be annihilated iht?”
If it was a Heroic-rank boss monster of the central continent, its minimum level would be at least lv 170
Fiolan sighed deeply
”Whew… That is true”
”To be honest, even if ere lucky and soo to an empty base, with just a couple ame over for us like that”
If the base was established, the e-scale sizes and raided the base
The fighting difficulty level itself would increase significantly in co
If they had a defensive wall to at least attempt in a defensive battle, it would be a different story, but in a base with desolate land, there was no way that such a thing would exist
Herz, as silent, asked towards Ian
”So, what are you saying we should do? Are we giving up on the quest?”
Ian nodded his head
”Yeah, I think you would have to consider giving this up for now Since we're going to be hunting in here for a full week, and if we do that, then we'll just have a day left within the ti to be difficult by the looks of it”
Fiolan licked her lips
”H because I thought that if we succeed with the quest, then ill be able to get hit by another EXP bomb”
Ian smirked
”Rather than that, you will probably gain 100 ti 4 times the EXP Since there are no boss monsters that are Heroic-rank or more in here, even if we move with just ourselves carefully, we should be able to hunt continuously”
Fiolan also agreed with Ian's words
”That is true Based on the fact that I'm already at lv 129…”
And one of the guild athered nearby before they realized and heard what they said asked Ian
”Then what level are you at now, Ian?”
Ian grinned as he replied
”I just leveled up one level, so I hit 132”
Herz opened his mouth with a baffled expression
”132? Are you sure you're not going into the top 10 of the general rankings like this?”
Ian shook his head
”No, probably not that Wouldn't the top 50 users probably all be over lv 140 by now?”
”Is that so?”
”They probably are Since when I checked the rankings before we started this quest, the user that was about 50th was at lv 138 or so”
Fiolan mumbled as she spoke
”But it's basically a definite that Ian is first place in the Su at the Su list that popped up in the community last time, first place was marked as a lv 115 user”
Because Ian's inforone up in the Su list
And because they couldn't guarantee that there wasn't a Sus up until now like Ian either, Ian shrugged his shoulders as he replied
”Well, there could be another Summoner that's a similar level as me Since that we don't know”
However, Herz shook his head wearing an expression as if it didn't make sense while he shook his head
”Crazy, there couldn't be anyone that exists like that There's no way that there's another lucky wacko like you”
”Yo… To call me a lucky wacko…”
Fiolan also nodded her head as if she was agreeing with Herz's words
”His expression was a little extreree”
Ian replied with a sullen expression
”Ha, even you, Fiolan…”
However, while they murmured and shared a conversation…
Plop-
Bbookbbook, who ingested all of the meatballs that he received froround and crawled towards somewhere
Bbook- Bboo-bbook-!
However, because close to about 100 people were in rounds were incredibly noisy, so no one could discover the disappearing Bbookbbook
And just when about 10 minutes passed
Ian was able to discover the fact that Bbookbbook had disappeared
