Master Of None

Chapter 2385: 2385. Midnight’s Explorer Finds



Walker's adventure had led him in to the depths of the lava fields. Pulling fire crystals of higher quality than what most people had been able to find so far. He had even managed to find some ores that had innate binds with fire mana and earth mana. Otherwise, he was

wondering if he would be able to find anything else unique.

Originally, he had been pursuing everything to make sure that he gathered some of whatever he needed. But right this second, he did a count and realized that his mana senses had really only found fire mana crystals over more ore in bulk.

They needed more than just a few higher quality this and thats. Genesis was in need of everything, but that's what the others should be able to do. Yet, after he had helped Su, he realized that he needed to change his thought process to be able to focus on the monsters that were forming.

Just the golems that he had seen were more than enough to be a massive help when it came to the rebuilding of walls and general defensive buildings. But if he wanted to think even further, Walker knew that he should be considering the building costs that would come with more than just that.

The territories of the dragons took the furthest outer area of Genesis. There was plenty of room between everything to keep building and even expand fields for various farming or herbalism reasons. That was not a concern.

The concern was being able to defend the smaller villages, towns, and merchant areas outside of the major Genesis territory. An increase in the monster's strength and an increase in everything else that came along with wilderness dangers made that a focus for everyone.

Adding in the fact that dungeons existed and that there would be entire cities that could potentially form around them depending on when they are accessible and what they could offer for resources, then there was a lot more building that might take place.

Just the changes that came with higher amounts of mana in the environments proved that more valuable items needed for crafting would appear. As long as nature had the time, it would provide for them. That was also a basic belief of the elves and the echidna races. Walker could see and understand that as well since he had sensed and used natural mana.

With that being the case, Walker believed that there was more to come. The materials that they had gained so far in life and even these better higher quality materials they were gathering now were nothing much.

His thoughts landed right on the fact that the elemental planes clearly had better items and many mysterious things that he would have never seen in a lifetime unless he managed to go there to explore even more.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Therefore, the idea that there was a lot more when it came to materials to be seen from the world was easy. The mana could increase and he would be able to look forward to the changes and the growth that would come from the world fully changing. If he were to see the changes in materials when there was an opening of the third bridge to the elemental planes...

His mind trailed off with all this thought. He knew that he could keep thinking and mindlessly gathering materials. But he had been way too focused. He hadn't even remembered that a certain dragon was wandering around the lava fields as well and had been sleeping the entire journey to the lava fields until now.

Walker had even confirmed that Midnight would go with him. But as soon as they had gotten there, he had been forced to focus on the camp being settled and how people were heading out. From there he had rescued a few overzealous people from exploring and fighting while also checking in on Su when he felt a large burst of mana.

Midnight was finally in his view again and it seemed she had found something to snack on. 'Volcanic eagle

This eagle is one of the many ancient monsters finally able to hatch due to the increase in earth and fire mana around them. As eggs, they require dense earth manas to grow their bones and the fire mana to warm them. When they hatch, they gain a powerful fire and wind mana affinity which unite to be able to commune with the flames and heat of volcanic eruptions.

They will always make their nests on a volcano that is spewing lava and magma. The more violent that volcanic eruption is, the happier they are.

While they hunt various monsters, they also are known to guard and consume growing fire elemental herbs. Oftentimes they will even gather earth elemental herbs to create a nest. This allows them to grow their young better and stronger...'

The monster did not seem to be a massive threat to the world. More so, it was one of the ancient monster species that had been harmed by the loss of mana and managed to survive now that their eggs had the manas they needed.

Since the mana had returned and the lava fields were never greatly changed from ancient times other than becoming smaller, their eggs had remained dormant. They had survived as a monster species and returned to the world properly.

"That's a volcanic eagle you found. It's an ancient monster species. Did it fight with you in the air?" Walker could see the soot and other ash on Midnight's scales. From the way it looked, she would be dragging him to help her clean up later. She was very meticulous about her scales being clean otherwise. Most dragons were though.

Midnight looked up and nodded a little. She hadn't minded at all that \Walker was so busy. She knew that they were here for a few more days and helping the others was part of her and his responsibilities. But now, she had been training her fire resistance and also hunting monsters. She had enjoyed the exploring much more since she didn't have to worry about anything else.

"I was thinking we could go hunting for some unique herbs. That way we can compare them to the herbs that we gathered at other times. Or the herbs that are grown elsewhere without the constant natural fire and earth mana in this area." Walker saw that this captured Midnight's attention. She looked toward some lava flows coming from some larger groups of rocks. It appeared that she already had some ideas.

"Follow me!" Her response was in an instant as she dashed away. Her dragon form had grown a lot more with all the mana and the proper food she had gotten. Walker was proud to see that she was stronger every single day.

Just the fact that she was able to rival fully grown dragons and elder dragons was amazing. Beyond that, she was definitely able to give the royal dragons a good match. Even though they had all become dominator dragons, Midnight could wield manas of all forms just as Walker could. She was a true dragon champion capable of much more.

With her ability to grow also through the binds with Walker and Su, Midnight had a greater highest ahead of her that Walker could see being much better than what she had now or would have without access to the elemental planes.

"Here!" The small nests that were most likely the first start to the volcanic eagles' nesting since they were not close enough to the main volcano of the lava fields were made out of some earth and even a few fire herbs. These herbs had higher affinity and one or two of them seemed to have different leaf shapes than what Walker recalled from past herbs of the same kinds that he had seen before.

"These are great! You weren't planning on dragging these all back yourself were you?" He wondered if Midnight was going to take them all. It was a lot to carry and bringing open out here would be tough because of the intense heat.

Her response was a quick huff proving she had thought just that. "Really? I will store them

away. Some of them even have seeds and flowers on them still" Walker's smile prove she was more than fine with how much Midnight was working but also his reprimand proved he

wished she was taking it easier on herself.

What should we hunt For next? There should be some wind currents caused by the magma geysers over there. Maybe they have some unique fuel or triple affinity herbs. Could be interesting." This brightened Midnight's eyes. She had definitely waited for Walker to catch up and explore with her.

"Let's go then." He smirked even more before getting ready to race Midnight to the nearest

one.
