Chronos quickly moves and tries to deal damage to the big wolf, but it manages to avoid and injure Chronos.
"Cure!" Asher cast his healing skill and added Chronos' blood again.
"Damn it! I can't touch it at all." Chronos quickly gets up and uses his dash skill again but again he gets a hit bad enough to cause his blood to be critical.
"Cure! Cure!" Asher once again shouts his skill so many times that his mana slowly depletes. "We must think another way. We must retreat, Chronos. "
They decided to run and hide behind the shady trees and make sure the big wolf is not following them. A few minutes later, Asher gets a brilliant idea.
"Chronos, you can still use your dash skill right?"
"About 1x or 2x, what is the matter?"
"Chronos, I will lure the creature here and when the time is right you will use your dash skill to stab it."
"Ash, but the wolf has a pretty fast dodging ability. How can I kill it?"
Asher said as long as the creature sees him he can dodge, but if Chronos is hiding among the trees and appears with a sudden dash skill, it is unlikely that the wolf will not be able to move.
"I will signal when you can attack the wolf."
"All right, let's try."
Chronos hides in one of the tree trunks and Asher lures the wolf by throwing his item bomb until the wolf manages to discover his presence. The wolf stares at Asher and his heart beats faster as he sees the wolf getting closer and closer to him. As the wolf strikes him, he dodges and gives the signal to Chronos.
"Now!"
Chronos emerges from one of the tree trunks near Asher and immediately used his dash skill until he successfully stabs the wolf. He quickly uses his remaining dash skill and slashes the big wolf repeatedly until it dies.
'100 exp earned'
'You have obtained 25 gold coins! You have obtained wolf fangs 4x, wolf fur 2x'
"Gosh, we almost died." Asher sighs and sits down on the ground.
"Fortunately, your plan is working Ash."
"Yeah, but sadly I'm running out of mana, Chronos." Asher looked at his dwindling mana status.
"I think we should go back to Altaria village and restore ourselves."
"Yes, We can also buy weapons or equipment to increase our strength, Chronos."
"Yes, I feel ...."
Suddenly Chronos hears a strange sound from behind the bushes near them.
The two of them walk over to the bushes and see a small, luminous creature lying on the ground.
"Chronos, this must be the fairy." Asher slowly touches the fairy's tiny body. "But, it doesn't look well."
"We should take it to the chief and find out how it's doing."
Asher and Chronos return to the village and directly talk to the elf chief who is in the village square.
"Chief, we have managed to find one of the fairies in the forest."
'You have completed the quest: Missing Fairies part 1. Gained 1700 Exp. You have obtained 200 gold coins
"Thank you, Asher, Chronos." The chief examine the poor fairy's condition and said this fairy has a wound on its wing. "I can treat her, but I need some materials in the forest."
"Quest 3: Broken wings (required)"
Recommended player level: lv 5
Reward: 50 gold coins, 2x potions
The fairy is dying and needs help. The fairy elders need your help to find ingredients to make medicine to treat the poor fairy's wings.
Recommended class: All classes
Asher takes the quest and not long after the fairy elder gives a list of materials required to treat the fairy wings.
Material List:
Flower nectar 2x
Chitin 2x
Sturdy stem 1x
Wolf fur 4x
Wolf fangs 4x
Asher looks at the list of materials needed and furrows his brow. The materials needed seem to be quite a lot, but he has gotten at least 2 of the materials from the list.
"Ash, we just need to find the rest, but where is it?" Chronos scratched his head. "Some of these items also seem to sound familiar."
"Chronos, maybe we can find the other players and ask them."
Chronos nods his head and they start looking for players who are around the village square. However, all the players still seem to be wandering around in the forest and no one has returned yet. They also asked every NPC but to no avail.
"Argh! So what should we do now?" Chronos sighs and looks around at the surroundings that seem so deserted.
"I feel like we should go deeper into the forest, there might be other monsters that dropped the item."
"Well, there may be you right "Chronos snapped his fingers. "However, we have to buy items or weapons first."
The two of them decide to go to the equipment seller's shop and buy the required weapon or item.
'You bought Altaria's fairy wand (lv.1)'
[The fairy wand widely used by fairies in the village of Altaria can increase mana power by about +20.]
'You bought 2x potions, 4x bombs, 2x antidotes.'
[Potions: Restore HP (Health Point) ally in small amount]
[Bombs: A small bomb producing an explosion to kill monsters]
[Antidotes: Medicine to eliminate the poison effect]
"All right, I'm ready!" The aura of excitement shines clearly in Asher's eyes. "Let's go find those materials, now."
The two of them once again enter the forest and start looking for the materials they need. While they were in there, some wild wolves attack them and slowly their level goes to level 6.
"Ash, do you see any other monsters besides these wolves?" Chronos squinted his eyes but see absolutely nothing.
"No, I don't see anything at all."
"I can't find the other players either, where are they?"
Chronos accidentally discovers the mouth cave a few meters ahead of him and decides to enter the cave. The atmosphere is so quiet, but strangely a gust of wind can still be felt in the cave and it turns out it comes from the end of the cave. They quickly accelerated their footsteps and finally reach the end of the cave which is covered with vines. Chronos pulls the vines and finally sees a forest that is very similar to the forest which they have been passing.
