Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Expendition III

Ido outpost

The members of the blue flame squad gathered around a blue flame. They all looked dirty. They hadn't had any rest since the they got into the outpost. Thankfully they only encountered zulu squirrels and other wild beasts.

"So far so good we have filled two storage rings with the zulu squirrels remains. I think we should focus on other animals tomorrow. " Ini said to his squad.

( The only parts they need from the zulu squirrels are the legs and the core so the you can imagine how many legs would fill two one cubic meter boxes.

The core is used for cultivation I think I have explained that to you already. The use in the legs are the nails. They are extremely sharp and hard. When manufacture into a bullet with gun powder you have something that's deadly to magical beasts at the lower intermediate realm or lower.

Andrew says " although we're still okay it was really stressful I can't believe they are just at the bottom of the food chain. The life of mages are really hard"

" Yes it is and it will always be till you get to your top" ireayo adds

"What did you mean your top or did you mean the top?" Esther asks

"Noni meant what I said. Every one has a different goal. Some give up after reaching the core realm and can no longer advance. Some are satisfied with the advanced realm, some want the power at the spirit real while some want the authority at the origin realm. Every one has a different goal in mind. " ireayo explains she is actually chatting to get the fact that she might get hurt or d*e out here.

"You are right I just want to make my parents proud by reaching the upper advanced realm. The spirit realm would depend on my luck. " Andrew chimes in

" I also have a similar situation but I want to strive for the spirit realm. I will prove my self then leave a free life." Sarah adds her ambitiins

" I'm from a b ranked sect so reaching the advanced or spirit realm would help my clan alot . I also want my clan to be a renowned medicine clan . For the to happen I have to work hard so my siblings can follow my foot steps. Besides, being powerful is the answer so I have to be very powerful ." Esther says with a subtle smile forming on her lips as she imagined the better days ahead.

"I strive to be a spirit mage so I can stand on my own two feet ancreate my own clan." Ireayo says

They all turn to ini waiting for his own ambition he opens his mouth to speak

"I want to be strong enough to protect all those I care about. I want to have enough strength to protect my loved ones from any one on this planet. "

They all looked dumb founded as that would mean he his targeting the origin. ( I magin a normal worker saying he wanted to become a multi billionaire . Ini turn to Esther and says " could you breif us on things you know about magical beasts? "

"Yes,The classification of magical beasts are as follows:

Basic. -servant

Nascent. -shoulder

Intermediate. -warrior

Core. -commander

Advanced. -general

Spirit. -Ruler

Origin. -origin

Now you know how the are classified. The reason origin is the same is because when beasts reach this step they can transform fully into humans and have intelligence at a humans level. Those at the rulers level can also transform but they would still have animal characteristics like tails, scales, horns, eye colour, ear etc)

Presently there are only two bests at the origin level which are the flaming lion king ( fiery lion with flames for its mane about the size of a small hill. It is 129 meters tall, 180 meters long and 50 meters wide. ( If you think the number is small generate the image of this prompt in an image generator ai and think again "The picture of a lion 120 meters tall, 180 meters long and 50 meters wide compared to a skyscraper")

The second is the mother whale. It's five hundred meters long and 50 meters wide. One on the land and one in the see. The lion appears ones in a while but the mother whale hasn't appeared since her first appearance during her ascension. The only reason people still know she is alive is because every every hundred years she thrust a large amount of water from her blow hole upward it usually disturb the are and ships nearby are usually unlucky. "

"Thanks I think that's enough. Get some sleep I and ireayo would have first watch "

The remain tree laid down to sleep while the two on watch kept warming them selves with the fire.
