Dragon King's Harem Chapter 105. Ice Needle Forest I
"Grrrr!" Angry roars ca from three Snow Mutant Wolves which stord at us. They jumped from an ice spike to another ice spike. Their sharp claws and strong feet allowed them to grip it and jump between the spikes expertly.
anwhile, since the terrain was not in our favour, we couldn't do anything but wait for the monsters. Breaking through this forest with our Yegauns was sothing reckless.
As soon as they got closer, the monsters pounced at us. Their claws were ready to tear us apart, but I simply threw my weapons at them with my Telekinetic.
[You have cut a Snow Mutant Wolf for 816 HP]
[You have cut a Snow Mutant Wolf for 812 HP]
[You have cut a Snow Mutant Wolf for 815 HP]
In one move, the weapons split their bodies into two.
[All enemies have been defeated!]
[Level Up!]
[You are now Level 63. HP 50, Mana 20, ATK and MATK 5, DEF and SPD 2]
[HP: 3350/3350] [Mana: 1340/1340]
[ATK: 390] [M.ATK: 390]
[SPD:154] [DEF:154]
I cancelled my Mana Weapon and swept my gaze around us, making sure no monsters approached us again. So were the others. Even though we had defeated the monsters, it didn't an we were safe since this terrain gave a good hiding place for them and my Dragon Vision caught so monsters still stalking us everywhere.
It had been an hour since we entered this forest and looked for the next temple, but we hadn't found it yet. With terrain covered in spikes like this, it was difficult for us to determine the direction since all the spikes looked the sa. Sotis Eir and I had to fly to check if we were going in the right direction or not. We couldn't rely on the map or our sights since all we saw was ice spikes. For the temple, as I rembered it, it was just a small altar hiding between these spikes so it was the sa as looking for a needle in a haystack.
The suns were getting dimr. My eyes kept sweeping around either to confirm the monsters' position or search for the altar.
'I have to do sothing or we'll be stuck here until nightfall,' I thought. But what? There wasn't a single skill I could use for that, nor were my parchnts and potions. Whereas Eir and I had taken turns checking this place from above and haven't found it yet.
Eir moved his mount to my side.
"Should I check from above one more ti, sir?" he asked. Just like , he also realized that we didn't have much ti before the suns set.
"No need. If we can't find it, we'll skip this one and go straight out of here," I said in disappointnt. After all, our safety was the paramount importance. Although I originally did not plan to stay in an inn, I never planned to stay in a dangerous place like this either.
"What if we try to find him using the Magic ssenger?" Jyne suddenly had an idea.
Her absurd idea made us turn to her.
"Magic ssenger?" we said in confusion. The skill was only used for sending ssages, not for spying.
Jyne nodded with a smile.
"Yes. A Magic ssenger. Even though they are only used to send ssages, they detect the recipient's whereabouts, right? As long as Sir Argod knows where he's sending it, it should be able to lead us to the altar," she explained.
With her boring life in the Fox Tribe's Palace, Jyne often experinted with her skills. Especially basic skills like this. Sotis she sent random Magic ssengers to see where they would end up. Sotis she sent to a place, not a person, and waited for a reply. Unfortunately, she never received it. But so guards said that sotis they found so strange Magic ssengers flying around, so they destroyed those ssengers. This ans her Magic ssenger was successful, it was just since she didn't reveal her identity and just said she was from the Palace, the reply didn't co straight to her.
Evelina, Eir and I exchanged glances. Her explanation did make sense, but this was the first ti I had heard of sending a Magic ssenger to a place, not a person.
"I'll give it a try," I said. Well, I had nothing to lose for this. I stretched out my hand and used my Magic ssenger skill.
'Send a ssage to Ice Spike Temple.'
[Please insert your ssage.]
Since I didn't know what to send, I decided to send a random ssage.
'Location. '
The light from my palm slowly ford a small dragon that flew away from us.
"Let's go." We pulled the reins in our hands and kicked our Yegauns sides to get them to move faster and followed that small dragon.
We moved through the forest without taking our eyes off that ssenger even though the monsters were coming at us. Luckily with my current level, those monsters weren't a problem for . Sotis we had to make our Yegauns jump between spikes due to the bad terrain.
Another half-hour had passed when our gaze caught a short round altar that glowed in blue. The altar was covered by large, tall spikes. That's why we had a hard ti finding it.
"I can't believe it..." I muttered. Jyne's idea sounded absurd yet it worked. While my ssenger shattered into pieces when it landed on the altar.
Jyne grinned proudly.
"I knew it would work." She was happy to be able to help Argod since she could not give much help during this trip.
I turned to her since this raised a new question in my head.
"But if you can find a way using your Magic ssenger, why didn't you use it to find your way to Dragon Cross City before?" I asked curiously.
"The Magic ssenger can only send it where the caster has been if the recipient is not a person. Since I've never been to Dragon Cross City, I can't use it," she replied. She had also experinted with this and ca to this conclusion after seeing her Magic ssenger only fly around in her room if she sent it to a foreign place. But since the Dragon King had his ancestors' mories, she was sure Argod could do it.
