After their strategic meet, Walter spends his time healing Ranulph with all of his energy. He requests a short rest before he goes back to the campsite so that he can assure his safety. Just after Ranulph is already healed, Argos suddenly asks him to be their guide on their route. He didn’t give him a bit of rest even though Argos and the two adventurers spend their time sleeping before.
In no time, Argos already departed together with Ranulph and the two other adventurers. He already noticed that they are lacking time after all the hassle Loic did. Like before, Ranulph leads their way without any clothing, just his underwear and tied hands. They spent an hour walking towards the sanctuary where they think the people of Algaur are possibly held.
Soon, they entered a forest full of trees with gray leaves. The ground also retracts the color of it together with the mosses. They realized that the biome they are entering is a swamp.
“Are you really sure w
The time Argos infiltrates the sanctuary where the people of Algaur are possibly held, Walter departs from Loic’s temporary home as he says goodbye to Holessa with a smug. Unlike when she’s stressed, Holessa didn’t bother hearing his front face. Walter then reached the site after an hour.The site still doesn’t contain any living person from Algaur, in which he concluded that everyone, even Zeus, is captured by the Octagon. He sits at the edge of the cliff near the campsite as he looks at the sunset. “Whew, now I’m free of stress,” Walter said with a sigh of relief.“Are you annoyed with your allies?” A voice of a familiar woman said behind him. When Walter turns his head back, he saw a girl with black hair and crimson eyes, who is the one he already met earlier that day.“I’m annoyed by the problem they make,” Walter said as he turns back to the setting sun. “Why are you here? Aren&rs
Argos entered the trapdoor that might lead to the lower levels of the sanctuary as Ranulph said. The hole is tight for a person, even tighter than an exhaust vent where people in the movies plan their escape. The hole is unbelievably made of metal, but the metal used seems like ages ago and never replaced. Every move he makes, the powdered rust makes both his arms and knee hurt.As he thinks, the smell of the rusted metal is already spoiled, making him nauseous. He can’t move if he pinches his nose using his fingers that is why he holds his breath every twenty seconds. The metal bar seems to be nearly collapsing too. After minutes of his narrow journey towards the other side of the tunnel, the most unwelcome guests in which he prayed not to exist there blocks his way.“Argh! Ants! How long did someone pass here? This seems older than me. And ugh, it stinks too much! I’m concerned about how will I look like after I get out of this giant straw,” A
“Moving on, I heard that you are attacking at the sanctuary. Are you sure that the ones you are finding are there?” Iris asked, coming from the earlier conversations that she overheard.“Better risk than sorry,” Walter said.“I hope so,” Iris said and sighs.“What about it? Did your gossiping skills just level up?” Walter commented with a raised eyebrow.“It is just pure coincidence. It’s just the right thing I left Gerard back there,” Iris said.“What weight are you planning to put on us this time?” Walter asked.“No, no, that isn’t my decision. It’s fully his,” Iris said as she waves her hands out of misunderstanding.“Will he try to bomb Argos as well, as he did at Zeus back then?” Walter concluded.“Oh, did I forget to tell you? Your friend got caught in a false trap,” Iris said to clarify things out
“Lenard…” Argos gasped.“B… Be…” Zeus stuttered with his fully injured lips.Argos quickly goes to him so that he could free Zeus out of his bind as he knows that the chains are already vulnerable to force. “Don’t talk. You’ll just experience pain. Don’t worry. I am here to save you all,” Argos said.“Behind… you…” Zeus stuttered.“What?” Argos’s eyes widened as he turns around and sees the two person who he heard back then. “Do you want to play some chess?” Argos draws his blade the moment the two person come out of the shadows.“We are deeply sorry. We just finished playing it by the way,” the big man in the right said in a friendly way as he scratches the back of his head with a burst of embarrassed laughter. Standing 6' 3" tall, and stout with cream skin, this man has a focused feel about him. He has sou
“Eh… Friendship… right?” Argos stuttered as he starts stepping back away from them.“There is no consideration for a friend when you are an enemy from the start!” Turoc exclaimed as he readied his weapon to swing it to Argos but just before their weapons became in contact with Argos, they suddenly stopped. Their bodies start shaking forcibly like they are holding the pain in their inner bodies. Not so long until they fell down the ground out of paralysis, a new man appeared in front of him.“Eh?” Argos stuttered out of confusion not until he clearly see the man’s face in visible light. His face made him remind of the first incident Lenard is involved with. “Are you…”The man picks out a set of keys from his back and shows it to him. “Is this what you are looking for?” The man asked with the tingling sounds of colliding metals in his hand. Argos can’t reassure his safety
“I’m going now!” Argos exclaimed, but before he goes back to the wilderness, he left a raging whispered message to Gerard. “If you did anything at them, you will experience ten times what you did.”He runs toward the resting room of the guards and it seems no one is still hanging back in there. He suddenly felt some sudden vibrations of the ceiling coming from above. “Was there an earthquake? Well, whatever. Alex’s distractions seem to be in favor of me. Now, I’m going back again to this irritating narrow hole full of ants. I swear I won’t go back at this way again!” Argos complained as he stares at the tunnel he came from.Without noticing the time, he crawls back out the tunnel with this bugged-out mind. He thought that it would be the only time he will be able to think so that he could utilize both resources and time. With only ten minutes of slow crawling, he already thought of most of the things he needed
Just as Argos plans to wander around the place, someone taps his shoulder from the back. He tries to scream out of shock but instead, he holds it because it isn’t the right thing to do in his situation. After he turns back with a compressed face, he knits his forehead out of disappointment. What he saw was Zak together with Ranulph who is still normal even after walking through the cold with just underwear.“BWAHAHA! Look at that face! It looks like you have entered a haunted house. If I have a camera, I would take a thousand copies,” Zak commented after spilling out a burst of hard laughter. What he did made Argos disappointed.“If it were you, I would do a billion, and I would make sure that everyone in the world would have a copy of your face,” Argos said with grinning teeth and clenched fists as he looks at Zak with furrowed eyebrows.“Master, why are you here? Are you done with the infiltration?” Ranulph, who is bes
After they witnessed such an unpredictable event, they rushed back towards where they left Alex, which is where the trapdoor is located. As soon as they got back, Argos slightly tilted his head towards the side after seeing Alex collecting each herb around them.Lephumine is a rare, medium-sized plant and can be found only near forests in the Southern region of Victoria. It blooms in late spring. It has large, rosette leaves, which are usually light orange. It also grows large flowers, which can be dark purple and light orange.Like the Lephumine, the Knot Ginger is an extremely rare, tiny plant and can be found only n the place around them. It blooms once a year, for 4 months.It has narrow, squared leaves, which are usually light green. It also grows huge flowers, which can be light red and silver.Mimosa pudica, on which Argos is familiar, is well known for its rapid plant movement. Like a number of other plant species, it undergoes changes in leaf orien
