A forest covered with vines. However, it wasnât the vines that needed to be watched carefully. It was the black, viscous liquid pouring down that seemed like the skin of a slime creature. The vines werenât the only strange thing covering the forest. There were mushrooms that grew like thorns in the corpses of monsters, luminous moss that glowed in the dark and cactuses that released electricity when touched. Everything that caught the eye in the forest was bizarre. But that was just from the perspective of a human.
These bizarre life forms were native to Istana that was located thousands of light years away from earth. They had been growing in Istanaâs environment for millions of years. But this environment was fatal to humans. Humans had no immunity again it so touching alien plants could cause unidentified diseases or genetic mutations. No, the const.i.tuents of the atmosphere were different from Earth so humans couldnât even live there. Therefore humans had to terraform the environment to become similar to Earthâs. This was an area that hadnât been terraformed yet. This was the 24th century so pioneers who received the body coating where their DNA was remodelled could survive in these areas called the Outlands.
ââŚâŚBut.â
It wasnât a safe place even for pioneers who received the body coating. The body coating was the minimum conditions needed for survival in the Outlands. The Outlands were infested with monsters that transcended the imagination and the pioneers were food for these monsters. Naturally they werenât friendly.
Kuaaaa!
There are also monsters here!
Woooooo!
Monsters here as well!
There were creatures everywhere as soon as the Outlands were entered. The monsters werenât the only threatening ones. Once again, body coating was the minimum needed so ensure survival. There were toxic substances emitted from some plants to still poisoned pioneers despite them having the body coating. The cactus that caused electricity was particularly dangerous.
-Electric Tia-
Category: s.p.a.ce Plant Danger: C
Combat Power: â
Electric Tia is a plant commonly found on many planets in the galaxy.
This plant contains a very unique nature as it uses energy gained from photosynthesis to create electricity and release it outside. The electricity has a significantly high voltage and can have a fatal result for pioneers using electronic equipment.
He knew the information about the Electric Tia through his Clairvoyance skill. And he had experienced the deadly result talked about in the information window already. The earthworm like Harkerion was the monster that he encountered the most in the Outlands. During the battle he had stepped on an Electric Tia by accident and the information window appeared.
-You have been shocked by the electricity released by the Electric Tia!
The capabilities of the Nymphe will also be paralyzed and all skills blocked>
Skill blockage and 10% reduction in stats! He was dumbfounded when he received this penalty in the middle of battle. He couldnât fathom the surprise attack from unidentified animals and plants. It was the perilous Outlands where it was impossible to be careless for even one moment! Arkâs state of mind when he first entered the OutlandsâŚâŚ
âHow fascinating!â
R-14 was a tutorial. When he arrived in Nephalim where the real game would start, he had been tricked by the hamster and sold to the Silver Hand. As a result, Arkâs relationship with the Silver Hand was tremendously helpful to him. But it wasnât something he had personally chosen to do.
Then he was caught as a criminal and sent to Beltana. When he returned from Beltana he was caught by Marquis Martin and became the billboard of the federation. Ark still tried his best in every situation and got a good result but he had been feeling frustration throughout. He was playing the game but he had no freedom. That situation changed once he entered the Outlands.
âOf course, I came here because of a quest but I have my freedom!â
He could go in any direction! There were unidentified dangers with every step! It was the type of adventure that all gamers liked! And Arkâs ability was exerted 120% in such a world. At first he had difficulty fighting the monsters. He wasnât adapted to the unfamiliar surroundings and made significant mistakes. Now it had been 6 days since he entered the Outlands and Ark was showing his ability to adapt. He began to grasp what was needed to survive in the Outlands. He wasnât just receiving surprise attacks from monsters but was actively âhunting.â That was his idea when walking.
ââŚâŚIâve found it!â
Arkâs eyes brightened as he looked at the monster on the other side of the vine. It was a raptor like monster similar to dinosaurs in Jura.s.sic Park called the Bellos. Level 65. On the other hand, Ark was currently level 61. He had been level 52 when first leaving Nabe. He gained 9 levels in a mere 6 days. He encountered the Harkerion as soon as he entered the Outlands and reached level 60. Continuously hunting high level monsters meant it was natural for him to gain levels quickly. But there was a decisive reason why he could gain 9 levels after only 6 days. It wasâŚâŚ
âOuch! It is painful just thinking about it!â
Ark couldnât be completely happy. This was because there was something he had to give up to achieve such results. Ark became lost in his memories before shaking his head.
âd.a.m.n! Forget it! There is no point dwelling on the past. Anyway, thankfully Iâve reached the level where I can hunt the Bellos. Yes, I need to think like this. Right now I need to concentrate on the Bellos. If I make a mistake like last time then Iâll be left bleeding.â
Anyway, the Bellos was 4 levels high than Ark. However, the bonus he received from the Survivor coating meant it was possible for him to win. The problem was they always went around in a pair of female and male. This was why the Bellos were able to occupy an area full of level 70 monsters. Two level 65 monstersâŚâŚ
He honestly felt lucky. The experience earned was equivalent to fighting 1 level 80 monsters. ButâŚ..
âI canât just live on experience.â
This was the reason he went looking for the Bellos. Ark wasnât hunting the monsters for combat but for the loot. And the Bellos was the Outlands creature that Ark could get the most loot from. If he saw items then of course he would want to get his hands on them!
âNow shall I get started?â
âStealth.â
Ark murmured in a low voice. And it felt like his body disappeared at the same time. The light refracted around his body was one of the Survivor coating skills, Stealth! It was the same skill as other online games but this Stealth was more difficult to use. If he lost concentration when using Stealth then he would become transparent or hazy like a ghost. When he first tried to use Stealth, his body was blurry like a ghost and was still attacked. But he became accustomed after using it several times. His practiced his concentration through repet.i.tion over the past 6 days and he could maintain his transparency. Yet he still couldnât rest a.s.sured. Stealth was easily removed.
Sneak, sneak.
Ark carefully creeped closer to the Bellos. It was only 40 metres but it took him 3 minutes to reach the Bellos undetected. A black light shot out from the Impact Blade.
Sakak-!
-The Bellos has received a sudden blow!
<the>-The message flashed after the hit. This was the biggest effect of maintaining the Stealth status and approaching the monster. If Ark approached the monster from behind and dealt a sudden blow then he could deal x4 his base damage to the monster. The âfearâ effect also made its strength and willpower decreased by 20%.</the>
<the>âThe extra damage and effect from the surprise attack is amazingâŚ..â</the>
<the>That was the valuable part. It was possible to use skills in the Stealth state. However, his proficiency wasnât high enough to maintain the Stealth state while using attack skills. Stealth would be turned off the moment he attacked. Thatâs why he always tried to combine âBackstabâ with âSudden blow.â</the>
<the>Backstab gave an extra x2 damage. The âFearâ effect was an added benefit. And that effect alone was enough.</the>
<the>Kaack! Kuaaack!</the>
<the>The Bellos bled heavily and its health was reduced by 30%. He had shaved away 30% of the monsterâs health before the battle even began. This meant it was an easy win despite the 4 level difference. However, there wasnât just 1 Bellos.</the>
<the>Kiyak! Kiyak! Kuaaah!</the>
<the>There was always a male and female together. Anyway, the other Bellos shrieked and rushed forwards as its companion started bleeding heavily. It flew forward with sharp claws. But Ark didnât even turn his head.</the>
<the>âIf I try to deal with 2 at once then this will never end. I have to concentrate on only one!â</the>
<the>âMind Shield!â</the>
<the>A round shield appeared around Arkâs body. It was the Mind Shield skill received from the Survivor body coating! It was a defense shield but it was different from other shields. Like all skills received from the Survivor body coating, it also depended on concentrationâŚâŚ</the>
<the>-The Mind Shield has been activated.</the>
<the>In addition, the effect of Backstab or Sudden Blow will be nullified by 100%></the>
<the>âd.a.m.n, thatâs not even half of the maximum durability possible.â</the>
<the>Ark was disappointed as the message appeared in front of him. Depending on his concentration, the durability of the shield could vary between 50~500. Stealth was a skill used before battle so the concentration was easy to maintain. But Mind Shield needed to be used while battling so it was difficult to concentrate. The first shield had 200 durability but the average was 50~70 at the most.</the>
<the>Therefore the shield normally broke after a few attacks. After a few practices, he managed to get it over 100 and was working towards 250 durability. 180 was only an average amount.</the>
<the>âIt should take approximately 3~4 shots.â</the>
<the>He had initially questioned the Mind Shield but there was a large advantage when he actually used it.</the>
<the>However, Mind Shield covered the whole body. In other words, it acted like an armour rather than a shield. Mind Shield gave him the same defense but he didnât need to worry about long or short distance attacks. But the best part about itâŚâŚ</the>
<the>Snap! Chwajijijijijik!</the>
<the>There was the sound of something hitting his back. Originally if he received a blow from behind then he would obtain x2 damage. The Bellos would deal Ark 180 damage. However, that changed once Mind Shield was applied. The shield absorbed 40~60% damage so Ark only received 36~54 damage. That was nothing to Ark who raised his health to 1,500!</the>
<the>âBut if the shield breaks then I will receive damage. Even my 1,500 wonât be able to endure 1 minute of being attacked from behind!â</the>
<the>It wasnât a situation where he had plenty of leeway.</the>
<the>âSonic Sword!â</the>
<the>Ark furiously attacked the Bellos. The blade broke through the speed of sound and caused a shockwave that dug into the Bellosâ neck. At the same time Ark pulled the trigger attacked to Impact Bladeâs handle.</the>
<the>âImpact Shot!â</the>
<the>The Bellos stumbled and retreated. This was the convenient part about the Outlands. The gun was a basic equipment necessary to deal with mechanical life forms like the Nak.u.ma. But savage monsters couldnât use shields. Therefore he could mobilize both guns and swords while attacking.</the>
<the>Seokeok! Pepepeng!</the>
<the>The blade separated and made a bellowing sound! The bullets jammed into the wounds continuously. The Bellos was struck by a series of gun and sword attacks. But that didnât mean Ark had a surplus of time. Mind Shield didnât block 100% of the damage. Even if it was reduced by 40~60%, damage was still damage. It would steadily acc.u.mulate. Moreover, the shield only had 180 durability so if he lost concentration then he would die in a few hits.</the>
<the>âButâŚâŚâ</the>
<the>Cheolkeok, chwaruru.</the>
<the>While the Bellos was stumbling, Ark quickly opened a cylinder in the Impact Blade. 4 bullet casings fell down.</the>
<the>âIâll settle it with this!â</the>
<the>He filled the cylinder with 4 more bullets. Ark finished reloading in an instant thanks to all his practice while the Bellos started attacking him again. While the Bellos was trying to bite his head off, Ark placed the tip of his sword against its jaw. The knife blade broke through the jaws. His finger that was on the trigger pulled it quickly.</the>
<the><you><bullets>The Bellos shrieked and gave out a weird glow. But after a few minutes, the Bellos that was already in a critical condition took a few steps forward before collapsing. Then Arkâs shield broke and a red warning message popped up.</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>-You have received backstab damage from the Bellos!</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>His health was sucked out! In the end his Mind Shield was broken. The backstab damage caused him to lose 40% health straight away. But Ark just turned around with a pleasant smile.</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>âNow youâre the only one left!â</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>Greed gleamed from Arkâs eyes! The Bellos flinched from the outpouring of attacks and retreated. However the Bellos was also one of the predators of the Outlands! Ark didnât know whether it was the husband or the wife but it had just seen its companion die.</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>Bellos growled and rushed towards him. Unfortunately the Bellos wasnât very good at maths. Despite the two monsters attacking him, Arkâs health had only decreased by 40%. Of course, Arkâs shield broke but there was only one Bellos left. Even if the Bellos receive spiritual enlightenment that increased power by 2, the odds still werenât in its favour. It was also blinded by rage and just ran wildly up to himâŚâŚ</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>The sword sliced through the bullet holeâŚâŚThe Bellos became ragged as soon as the 1-on-1 battle began. Unfortunately the Bellos hadnât received any spiritual enlightenment. But it wasnât smart and kept on rushing towards him to be beaten. The Bellosâ health decreased to 10%.</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>The Bellos studied his face and tried to retreat without him noticing. Then it shrieked and ran away.</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>âIt will be troublesome if I miss!â</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>This was the part that caused him a headache when dealing with the Bellos. If 1 Bellos was cornered then it would sometimes run away. Ark hadnât expected it when he first fought the Bellos so he left it while it was in a critical condition. And he searched the body of the monster he already defeated.</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>Dozens of red eyes flashed between the vines. Thatâs right. To be exact, the Bellos wasnât running away. It was in order to summon the other Bellos in the area to kill Ark. At that time Ark had used the battle suit to escape. Once the mana of the battle suit disappeared, he drank an ampoule and kept on running away from the chasing Bellos. But he had something to escape. If he was surrounded then he would inevitably die. AndâŚâŚ</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>-Your level has risen!</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>-Your level has risenâŚâŚ</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>Ark went up 6 levels at once. Thatâs how Ark managed to gain 9 levels in 6 days. But it wasnât for free. In that situation he had to give up something in order to survive. That wasâŚ..</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>âd.a.m.n, I hadnât considered something like that! If I miss then Iâm screwed!â</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>Ark caught up to the Bellos and swung his sword.</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>âDo you think I will miss? Take this, Binding Sword!â</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>It was a skill that decreased his damage by 50% while binding the enemy for 1~3 seconds! If it was tied up for 1~3 seconds then he could somehow dispose of it. HoweverâŚ..</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets>-Your attack has. .h.i.t the target!</bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you>-Your attack has. .h.i.t the target!</you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you>It was the 3rd skill he received from the Survivor coating. He worried about Stealth and Mind Shield at first but it was 100% effective and worth it. He was satisfied with all except for one! The only exception was the Binding Sword. The other skills were used relatively early in battle so it was easy to focus. Although Binding Sword decrease damage by 50%, it allowed the enemy to be bound for 2~3 seconds. It could be used in situations like this when an enemy was running away. The problem was that he didnât have time to focus like when he used Stealth or Mind Shield. He needed to chase the enemy so it was natural for his concentration to drop. The probability of the skill causing binding was only 30% so the result was clear once his concentration fell.</you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you>It was a skill he learnt after a long time. In order to learn how to use it, Ark tried it at least once or twice in a battle. But so far he had only succeeded 5 times in 6 days. The probability was 30% but the actual success probability was 1%. If the binding wasnât triggered than Binding Sword was just a skill that decreased damage by 50%.</you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you>âThere is a reason it was a 1 star rated skill!â</you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you>The damage was cut by 50% even when he used Sonic Sword. Using that skill in rapid successionâŚâŚ</you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you>-You are unable to use the skill because you donât have enough mental power.</you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Ark currently had 800 mental power! However, he had consumed 200 using Stealth and Mind Shield. He had also consumed 400 mental power since the battle started. He persevered and used Binding Sword that consumed 50 mental power until it was depleted.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âd.a.m.n, what is thisâŚâŚâ</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Instead of Binding Sword, it should be called Stressful Sword. Anyway, he wasted time and mental power while the Bellos increased the distance to 10 metres. The Bellos was a wild monster so it naturally moved faster than Ark. The forest was also tangled with vines so he couldnât use the Air Board. But Ark hadnât believed in Binding Sword. It was natural. What user would believe in a skill when the success rate was only 1%?</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âI saw it in this area when I scoutedâŚâŚthere it is!â</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Ark smiled while chasing after the Bellos.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âThe distance is 10 metres. If it is this degreeâŚâŚâ</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Ark grabbed his Impact Blade with both hands.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>The ensuing four shots rattled the forest. The Bellos that was 10 metres away was. .h.i.t by a blue light. It spasmed and fell down. The blue sparks was coming from a cactus near it. It was the Electric Tia! The strange cactus emitted electricity whenever it received an impact. When he first came to the Outlands, he often touched the cactus during battle and became b.l.o.o.d.y. But 6 days had pa.s.sed since Ark came to the Outlands. Now he was accustomed to looking around and noticing any risk factors before the battle. This was why scouting was important in the Outlands. AnywayâŚ..the Electric Tia caused electrocution for 5 minutes, the stats would be decreased by 10% and all skills blocked. But the deadly penalty was that the body was paralyzed for 10 seconds. Thus the Bellos couldnât run away.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>The Bellos panted as it lay on the ground. The dinosaur like monster lying on the ground looked slightly pitiful. But Ark had no time to look at the circ.u.mstances of the dinosaur. The Bellos still had 10% health remaining. And it had escaped to a pretty far away place. There may be other Bellos in the area. He couldnât relax even when it was paralyzed!</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âIt is dangerous!â</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Ark quickly hurled attacks at the panting Bellos. The Bellos quickly fell to 4% health! His mental power also recovered enough for him to use a deadly skill.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âNow, this is the last shot! Set Bullets Shooting!â</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Panic appeared on Arkâs face. Set Bullets Shooting was Arkâs knockdown technique!</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>However, there was one thing his head hadnât considered. It was possible to reload bullets in the Impact Blade. The Impact Blade could have 4 bullets loaded at a time. And he had used 4 bullets to hit the Electric Tia.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>The Bellos shrieked as it escaped from its paralysis. The monster immediately died as Arkâs sword hit it butâŚâŚ</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>The forest shook with the shrieks from other Bellos. The surrounding bushes shook and dozens of red eyes appeared in the darkness. The Bellos had heard the shriek of its kin and came running. There were dozens of level 65 monsters! His health was already low so it Ark was surrounded then he would die instantly.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Ark wore the battle suit and ran away. However, the area was thick forest so he couldnât outrun the Bellos even while wearing the battle suit. And they had already surrounded Ark. He was. .h.i.t by claws and fangs and his health dropped to 20%.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âImpossible! Iâll end up dying like this! ButâŚ..butâŚ..â</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Ark bit his lip and struggled. However his worries didnât last long. If he died then he would lose the 9 levels he gained. There was no meaning if that experience disappeared. He had to survive! At all costs! That was his ultimate priority inside Galaxian!</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Ark cursed and threw a small object. And he threw himself flat on the ground!</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>The small object exploded and black air currents swirled in the area. The dozens of Bellos were wrapped in the black air currents and their bodies crumbled to sand. However Ark had a gloomy expression on his face.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âDammit, that is already 2 STK-VIIâŚâŚâ</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>A few days ago Ark was surrounded by the Bellos and used it to survive. The STK-VII! It was the destructive grenade that dealt all enemies within a 20 metre diameter 1,500 damage. It even ignored defense! In other words, it was a weapon that could kill monsters with less than 1,500 health in one blow! Naturally the STK-VII was Arkâs trump card. But he inevitably used one when surrounded by the Bellos. The result was devastating. Dozens of Bellos disappeared in an instant!</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âThis is more than I imagined! This power would be enough to wipe out dozens of level 60~70 monsters. In other words, the STK-VII made him invincible as long as he possessed it! He was carrying around something that could save his life. âOh my G.o.d, what a tremendous waste to use the grenade on the Bellos!â</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>He could confirm its power. It was the same on this occasion as now.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âYour level has risen!</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>-Your level has risenâŚâŚ</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>The message simultaneously appeared with the Bellosâ death. He had gained 4 levels! But Ark couldnât be pleased. He survived a situation where he wouldâve 100% died! And he managed to save the experience he gained from several days of hunting! It was equivalent to exchanging one STK-VII for his life. Now he had only 1 STK-VII remaining in his bag!</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âd.a.m.n, was I too greedy?â</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Regret surged like a tidal wave but he had used the item already. Moreover, wasnât there a reason he had the STK-VII in the first place? If he used it then his goalâŚâŚ</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Even the might STK-VII had a downside. Everything caught in the explosion would disappear without a trace. So he couldnât get any loot from the Bellos when he used the STK-VII. There was only the first two Bellos that he killed. Ark sighed and went back to the place where the killed the first Bellos.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>He managed to obtain a few âBellos Leatherâ when examining the dead body. It was a basic leather product but there were still a lot of low level users so he could get a decent price for it. However, the reason he attacked the Bellos and risked danger wasnât for some leather.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âThe Bellos was a pair so it shouldnât be far awayâŚâŚâ</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Ark looked around for a while. He finally found a nest under some thick, overgrown vines. Arkâs target wasnât the Bellos but this nest.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>âSheesh, are my efforts also in vain this time?â</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Ark clicked his tongue and murmured as he checked the nest. There were two reasons why Ark was looking for the Bellosâ nest. The monsters in the Outlands rarely dropped equipment. Most of their loot was leather, bones, meat or ores. The Bellos were the same but they also gathered various things from other monsters and left it in their nest. Sometimes pioneer objects dropped in the Outlands would also be mixed within. The shoes Ark was wearing was one such equipment.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either>Shoes widely used among beginner pioneers. These boots are made from the leather of a monster so they are suitable for most environments. These boots in particular are made from luxury leather and allows the pioneers to walk in the Outlands on Istana without being poisoned.</either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when>Magic item! The defense and option was decent but the shoes matched Ark perfectly. Ark barely had any equipment so he was grateful to find it. Therefore Ark concentrated on finding the Bellosâ nests but his income hadnât matched his expectations yet. He sometimes found equipment but they were generally level 30 items. This time he only found a rusty sword when searching the nest. However, that wasnât the only thing he obtained from the nest.</when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when>âThere are 5 eggs?â</when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when>Ark gave the eggs in the nest a warm look. In fact, the second reason Ark risked hunting the Bellos was to obtain the eggs.</when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when>âMy satiety decreased quite a bit so shall I eat one?â</when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when>Ark quickly picked up an egg and placed it in his mouth.</when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>

<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when><satiety>However, Ark just heard that his mother was pregnant so he couldnât help feeling uncomfortable.

<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when><satiety>âAnd why should I worry about monsters? I have to stop Lucifer quickly. What would happen to my younger sibling if my money is gone?

<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when><satiety>Ark thoroughly firmed up his spirit. Therefore Ark had gathered 70 Bellosâ eggs over the last few days from the nests. He didnât need to worry about food for a while.</satiety></when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when><satiety>A frustrated sigh emerged from Arkâs mouth. He went through all this because he was lacking in information and experienced a large number of trials and errors! Now he was perfectly adapted to the environment of the Outlands after the past 6 days.

<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when><satiety>Ark hadnât come to the Outlands to gain experience and items. He had received a quest from</satiety></when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>

<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when><satiety>Charem was 1,000 km from Nabe. If he walked then it would take a month but Ark had the air board.</satiety></when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when><satiety>However, he often received surprised attacks from monsters while travelling on the air board after entering the Outlands.

No, he didnât know Charemâs exact location when he gave Ark the quest. Marquis Martin told Ark that Charem was hidden in a 100 km diameter around the coordinates he gave Ark.</satiety></when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when><satiety>âIt is amazing but Charem is still a city. Itâs not like finding a needle and I have the air board so I should find it in one day. I should worry about how to enter the sealed city.â</satiety></when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
<the><you><bullets><you><you><either><when><satiety>At least thatâs what Ark thought.  It had been 4 days since he arrived at the destination. Yet he still couldnât find the city on the 4th day. He was also distracted by hunting. Ark would sneak out of the designated area for 3~4 hours to hunt. The remaining 5~6 hours was spent searching on the air board. But over the last 4 days, he hadnât met any users or NPCs let along a city. He had no choice. The place that Marquis Martin specifiedâŚâŚ</satiety></when></either></you></you></bullets></you></the>
