Chapter 871 - Gathering Intelligence III (1/2)

By the time dawn came, I had come out of the most dangerous, heavily patrolled area. Now the danger of me being discovered had lessened quite much, though there are patrols they are not much threat to me.

I did not return to the camp directly as it is not time yet, such a mission usually takes three to five days to complete, but it had been only one and a half days to complete.

Though I have gathered more information than it is required, I will be suspected of providing false information and will be interrogated. To save myself from all these troubles, I decided to camp out for two to three days before leaving for the Hidden Camp.

This forest is filled with Giant Trees; some big ones have a trunk that is bigger than the house. Such trees are perfect for making a camp, but I am not making camp inside such trees.

The Grimm Monsters keep a special eye on those, though my travel. I have seen Grimm Monsters always checking such trees. So I chose the average size, which has a trunk in the size of the room.

Such trees are everywhere in the forest, and since they are everywhere, the patrols of the Grimm Monsters did not focus on them. After deciding on a tree, I searched for a location, which had not to be too hidden or too open.

It took me half an hour to find such a location, after finding the location I chose the tree and took out a palm-size device which looked like a bug. I placed that device on the tree, and the next moment, It went inside the tree.

Buzz!

A few seconds later, I started to hear the faint buzzing sounds from inside the tree. This is one of Gadget I got from the Guild. It is called 'Tree Bug' and it is used to hollow out the tree trunk.

In areas like the rainforest when powerful Grimm Monsters patrols, it is not wise to erect an abode as it is easily discoverable, even if it is an underground one but the usage of the tree or any other natural is good as they help in blending in the environment.

Three minutes later, the tree bug came out, I picked it up and placed it in my storage before taking out the green box and throwing it in the hole that 'Tree Bug' had created.

That Green Box is a special abode for the tree. Normal abodes are not suited for the trees. For such a small space, one needs a special abode that will be able to utilize all space that is present in the trees.

Cap!

A minute later, a faint sound rang out, and the next moment, a small door opened from the tree. Seeing that, I directly walked in. The door closed behind me, and a gust of hot wind came rushing over me, drying up all the water I had on me.

As I dried up, I looked around and found its structure is completely different from the other abodes. It circular two-story abode, on the first floor there is a bedroom attached kitchen and bathroom while on the second floor is the whole training room.

I could change the structures of the room, make the kitchen bigger and a training room that is above my bedroom but it is fine, I did not have any problem with the current set up.

The first thing I did after checking everything was take off my clothes, including the bodysuit I was wearing before going for a shower. It had been three days since I hadn't taken a shower and that it had started to make me feel weird.
