Raela and Liz reached the outskirts of the city, standing just outside the imposing city gate. They couldn't resist taking a moment to gaze out at the vast expanse before them.
To one side, a sprawling forest stretched as far as the eye could see, with towering trees that reached heights of twenty to thirty meters. However, they knew that this forest was not their destination, as it housed mana beasts that exceeded their capacity to handle. Their goal lay elsewhere.
With a shared understanding and smiles exchanged, Raela took the lead, knowing the direction of the Dragon Blood Tree they had mentioned earlier. On their journey, they had decided to make a detour to visit the tree and collect a branch since it was conveniently along their route. There was no harm in adding this unique wood to their magical resources.
