Chapter 604 When Grandpa Becomes The Mayor (1/2)

”Hey brother, it looks like you got a decent haul today,” greeted a tall man in green combat fatigues to the left as two groups of men in combat uniforms passed by each other.

”Not bad, we got lucky and bagged a Six-clawed Toad,” answered an 8-foot tall, grizzled man who was also the leader of his squad.

He might have been more cautious if he had encountered them in the wild. Since they were only a few miles from the gathering area, Old Hei was not worried about getting stabbed in the back.

The tall man said, ”Brother, I'm new here and am not that familiar with the surrounding area. I bought this beginner guide book, but I'm not sure if it's useful or not.”

He shook the black covered book in his hand before tossing a bag to Old Hei.

Old Hei caught the bag and peeked inside. There were Two Commander monster cores, which were worth something at least. He smiled and tossed the bag into the box behind him. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

”So, you're new,” he said. ”I've been here for around a year, so I'm quite familiar with the local area. I suggest you go to the Land of 1000 Streams.”

”Land of 1000 Streams?” The tall man remembered seeing the name on the map in his guide.

”Hehe, the Land of 1000 Streams might not have a lot of monsters, but I've never seen any high leveled ones there before,” Old Hei said. ”You won't find many monsters there, so it's relatively safer. The rewards are a bit lower, but it's much safer and rewarding in the long run.”

This information was something one would usually find out after making some friends around the block. Thus, he decided not to hide it.

”Thanks.” The tall man nodded in gratitude.

After passing the desolate plains and continuing north, one would reach the Land of 1000 Streams. It was about half a mile from the Desolate Labyrinth. Even for a monster trainer, it took a whole day of traveling to get there. It was common to encounter monsters during the journey. Otherwise, the journey would be much shorter.

There was a small market located on the border between the Land of 100 Streams and the Desolate Plains that linked them together. The market was crowded with people and Familiars.

At first, some entrepreneurs with keen eyes came and set up shop. Eventually, houses were there and the population grew. Later, it became a gathering area.

An area as wide as the Land of 1000 Streams, containing numerous biomes like swamp lands, rivers, and plains should contain a larger number of monsters. Mysteriously, people only found a small population of low-level monsters, which made little sense.

The tall man and his team hunted around the Land of 1000 Streams for two days. The only monsters around were of a low level and dispersed, so there was little worry of being attacked while hunting.

”It's strange that there are not many monsters here,” the tall man said.

”Perhaps this is a blessing from the heavens above,” one of his teammates said.

”Possibly, haha,” the tall man said.

Thump. The ground below trembled slightly.

”Hey, did you guys feel that?” a teammate asked.

”No, what's wrong?” the tall man asked.

”Hahaha, it must be your imagination,” another teammate said.
