Monster Integration

ROAAAAAR!

The armadillo monster roared, seeing us harvesting the plants, but we did not care for it. It is stuck and could not come to use, so we do not need to be worried about it; the only thing we have to do is be fast in harvesting.

We had spent only half an hour harvesting the plants before we resumed our journey. There are so many precious plants of Grandmaster level that we could harvest them for hours, but unfortunately, we did not have time to harvest them all.

We have only harvested those select few plants before; they are really precious, would not be found anywhere.

We traveled through the overgrown garden; our steps were quick but cautious, and soon an hour had passed, and we have stopped in front of another blockade made of several broken formations.

Jim again took out his stick and scanned it but soon, his expressions turned worse, and he turned toward.

"It seemed like you have to take this one," Jim said passed me a bottle of Grandmaster level formation ink.

I nodded and scanned the seven huge broken formations that were blocking our way before beginning solving them inside my core while my friends began to harvest the precious plants, to not waste any time.

It took me one hour and seven minutes to find the solution, much quicker than I had throught. As I had expected it to take more than three hours but to my surprise, I had noticed, the two of seven formations are too stable, and I would just have stunned them to pass through their gaps.

Creating such a formation is quite hard compared to when I do it for the complete formation. No matter how stable broken formations are, they are not as stable as the complete formation; thus, even the stablest possess considerable risk.

Buzz!

The formation appeared and stunned the two broken formations, and we walked through it. While walking through the gap between them, I felt the great instability, but the formation covering the two formations shone brightly and forcefully stabilized the two formations till we passed through them.

It is the reason why I used the Grandmaster grade formation ink despite the fact that I could make do with Master grade, but if such problems occurred, then it would be completely useless, and we would get killed.

The area we appeared to have neat lines of plants, the formation regulating the order of plants and the weeding out other is still working.

We have spotted a few extremly rare plants which we have harvested very quickly before continuing, avoiding many stray formations. We continued for two and half hours before we have reached the block, which we could not avoid.

Thankfully, Jame's artifact was able to find a stable home for us, and we passed through it and entered a completely different area, which had 20% thunder energy in all chaotic mix.

There are many extremly precious herbs in this field, many of them were desired by my runes, but we did not stop there for even a second. As the powerful thunder energy in a chaotic mix of energy is attacking our protection wildly.

Once it had eaten away our protection, we would be in deep trouble, and we did not want to get into the trouble just because of a few plants that are extremly rare, and many Grandmasters back home would pay a high price for them.

Thankfully, we were able to move away from that place before it was able to eat away our protection.

We continued to make the way toward our destination and thus moved toward the group of five Grimms, which seemed to be stuck with the formation, and their artifacts seemed to be in no way helping them break out of their predicament.

I would have liked to avoid the Grimms, even though there is no Grandmaster among them, but I could not.

Their field is the shortest route we have in reaching station 28. If I took another route, it would take us a day or more, and we even have to go near the place where that Grandmaster Monster is trapped, which I do not want to do under any circumstances.

So, going through that field is the only choice, and these Grimm Monsters seemed to be waiting for us, the eagerness on their face unmistakable.

Puch Puch Puch!

I killed the three monsters that dared to attack us; these monsters are very powerful but idiots since they dared to attack us; I killed them before they could even approach us and stored them in my storage.

The monster attack is not rare, there are tens of monsters that have attacked, but we have dealt with them.

The monsters here are no danger to us unless they are Grandmaster Class, and there are only two of them, both of them trapped under some formation. The snake Grandmaster that is quite a distance away from us must have been trapped for quite a while, as its condition is not ideal.

Monsters can live without food for years due to the immense storage of vital energies their bodies have, and this survival would last even longer when they are in a high-density energy environment such as this.

Still, it could not keep them alive indefinitely, and they would die if they did not get food. We have already come across the skeletons of monsters, Masters, and Grandmasters that would have died of hunger.

Though such cases would be a minority, there is very field as such in which the snake monster is trapped, which is barren for some reason.

The armadillo is trapped in quite a big field which is filled with plants. It would be able to keep itself alive as long as it eats the plants sparingly and seeding formation in the field kept working.

Soon we have reached the field of broken formation where five Grimms are trapped, and they are looking at u welcomely.

We gave them a blank look as Jim scanned the formation with its stick, but as expected, he did not find any safe gap. If there had been, the Grimms would have already found it with the artifacts they have.

"It seemed like Micheal, you have to make the way again," Jim said with a smile before he and Rhea went back to the field and began harvesting the precious plants while I scanned the broken formation to make the way for us.
