Chapter 88 - Class 2 Monster
I opened the door and found Uncle James lay down on the sofa. "Uncle..." I reminded him. Hearing that, Uncle James came back to reality.
He looked at me and said, "I have some important work here to finish." Then he continued, "Before that, I will take you to a location. There you can fight Class 2 Monster."
Hearing that, I became relaxed. But I asked," is there any sign of horde there?" Uncle James shook his head.
"There is no horde, you can fight without worry; No one knows that location except me.. So, don't' worry about being spied upon. People only live here at the train station. The Class 2 Monster location is too far." Uncle James explained to me.
I felt a sense of relief after listening to his explanation. I really want to ask about his work. But, I don't want to be rude. It may be confidential. So, I don't want to cross the limit. Unless he reveals himself about it.
"So, when can we leave?" I uttered. "In five minutes" Uncle James replied. Then, I went to my room to pick up my backpack. It's already packed with necessary items. I even brought a tent with me.
A Few minutes later, we left our location.
"Are we going to walk?" I asked him. Air transport is banned here. Forget about Train transportation. The only logical explanation I can think of. Either by walking or traveling by some vehicle. Then you can reach the location.
"Here it is!" Uncle James pointed his finger towards the four-wheeler. It is a Military Grade Vehicle. Completely shielded on four sides.
Leaving the only front view to drive. Uncle James took the driver's seat. I took the seat beside him. There is only two seats here.
I looked at the back seat with confusion. Instead of the back seat. The space is filled with lots of tech Materials. It's like an exploration vehicle.
Seeing Zack's reaction. Mr. James said, "You are right, it's Military Exploration Vehicle. There is a lot of navigation and mapping stuff placed backside."
"Wow," I felt a sense of joy hearing that. How cool it would be to explore new places. Once I get my official Rank. I will definitely apply for the exploration team.
Suddenly, a question comes to mind. I asked, "Uncle James, so this place belongs to Army Federation"
Hearing that, Uncle James nodded, We chatted little. In mean time, He continued to drive. There is no proper road here. It's a bit hard to drive. We left the train station area. Now, we are traveling deep into the black forest.
I can see why it is named the Black Forest. The soil is black in color. And it is getting darker as we enter deep inside.
A few hours later. Uncle James found some open space. He stopped the vehicle.
"Uncle James, Where is the spot?" I asked him as I stepped out of the vehicle. Hearing that "We reached the spot. You can find the Monster, a few meters from here." Uncle James told to me.
Hearing that, I became guarded and looked around carefully. "Our current location is a little deeper inside the Black Forests. So, it's natural to have communication interference."
Uncle James advised to me "Here… I transferred some safe spots. And certain locations with strong signal to your sci-fi, watch" then he gave me some map data of this location.
We talked about a few other things. A few minutes later, "Remember to contact me. When you have finished with your work" Uncle James reminded me. Then, he left this spot, leaving me alone here.
I'm a little disappointed. I thought, he would watch over me. But, looks like he really got important work. Otherwise, he won't leave me. I became a little sullen.
I don't know whether it's my situation or because of these Black forests. My mood is getting worsen not any better.
I got an entire day to spend. I looked at my surroundings to get a view.
From the beginning, I didn't find any living thing. There are these trees with orange leaves. They were everywhere. Forget about it, I didn't want to spend my evening in these creepy forests.
So, I made my mind to kill the Class 2 monster within half a day. It's good that Uncle James transferred me some data.
I picked up my backpack from the ground and continued walking. I'm on my way to that location. Where Uncle James pointed earlier.
It is just a few meters away from me. For safety, I took out my Black Sword from the storage ring. I held it with my right hand.
On the way, I'm clearing the hurdles by cutting out some branches. I didn't think I could use my Sword this way.
A few minutes later. I reached the exact spot. I looked for any hideouts around me. I'm being cautious and didn't make any loud noise. It could disturb the Monster.
For the time being, I didn't spot anything. I got frustrated and started to doubt. Whether the monster is currently somewhere.
I'm currently standing under a huge Black Tree. Which is quite interesting. This tree is entirely Black. Including its leaves, branches, trunks, and roots.
On top of Black soil, the tree looks creepier. If people come across such a tree at night. They will be shit scared.
Zack is observing the tree, forgetting about the monster entirely. He got lost in his thoughts.
Suddenly, one of the branches of the Black Tree moved.
At first, The Branch moved slowly. Looking from outside, it will look like. It is swaying due to the wind. But, actually, the branch is facing towards the backside of the Zack.
Zack is oblivious to the situation. He got no idea, that Black Tree is not an ordinary Tree.
The Black tree got consciousness. It is Tree type Class 2 Monster.
Earlier its location is exactly pointed by Mr. James Lockwood. But, he didn't divulge Monster's info to him. He wanted Zack to find out the answer.
That is why Mr. James is not worried about Zack's safety. Unlike, other Tree Monsters. This Black Tree Monster species got one terrible weakness. It cannot move back its roots and relocate to another place.
