It took me twenty minutes to get a cab from my apartment and have to wait more than an hour at miasta bazaar before I could get the second cab for Green Hills.
the cab had charged me four times more than normal fare, looks like these day cab companies going to earn a shit load of money.
As I am flying in the hovercar, I see thousands of hovercars every second in the route of Green Hills, usually seeing hundreds are very rare.
Green Hills is not part of miasta forest, it is a different area which has a chain of small and big hills.
It is a low danger area, only specialist grade monsters were found there and rarely any corporal level monster was found there and that is why there are hundreds of small towns are around the green hills.
It would take car little more than three hours to reach the green hills, not wasting any time in the ride I decided to view the information that Jim had to send me.
Earlier at my apartment building, I just viewed it on the surface but now that I carefully read it it is quite detailed.
Aside from mentioning safe areas and the areas which are occupied government and various organizations he also mentioned the areas where most fortune and found.
They found precious ores, exotic monsters, and mana gems, people have been going crazy over mana gems, a thumb size mana gem had been selling for millions of credits.
It is written here that there is some kind of spatial disturbance over green hills and only Corporal level or below evolver can venture inside.
Many sergeant grades, master grade, and other high-level evolver's tried to venture inside but most of them were cut by spatial tides, only those below corporal level can remain unaffected by it.
But spatial tides were least of their worries, many dangerous monsters said have come out spatial passageways, it said some of the monsters are completely different from those that are found in the continent.
These peculiar monsters are very dangerous and attack at first sight, that not a bad thing, the bad thing is that they re extremely dangerous and same level developers are no match for them.
And disturbingly many of revolvers are disappearing every second, Jim said that some kind of unstable space realm had coincided with the space of green hills and the disappeared once are probably accidentally entered this space realm.
Space realms are not a new thing, I've heard of them, there are many space realms across the republic but all of them in control of government and organizations and only their elites can train there.
There are many types of space realms, they appear and disappear at specific time cycle, some are stable that they are always opened and some like this one that opened on the green hills unstable and dangerous.
Still, many people go there despite a high chance of dying, it is all because of fortune because once they have stuck rich they can easily retire and live off their life spending that fortune.
After reading all the information that Jim had sent, I change the course of hovercar, I decide to go west side of green hills than previously decided south side.
Westside is dangerous but many people had found fortune there, I will not enter deep and only scourge on the outskirt, I still love my life more than any fortune.
Soon, I reached the west side of Green Hills and my hovercar stopped at the entrance of a small town.
As I stepped out of hovercar, I saw thousands of hovercar coming and going, dropping thousands of people every minute.
The town looked small, not more than a thousand houses are there but now there are thousands of camps surrounding the town.
Not just people there are hundreds of makeshift shops are their selling all kinds of things an adventurer will need.
This is only one town, there are hundreds of towns are surrounding Green hills. these spatial tides are probably both blessing and curse for the townspeople, they will earn enough money in a week that they probably earn in the year but they also have bear all unruly adventurers in their town.
fortunately, I have everything I need in my backpack, after asking around some people, I left after choosing my destination.
I have come across many people on the some were alone while others were in groups but just as I got near hills crowd begin to thin out and as I about enter the boundary of the hill I barely saw anyone.
I activated both my armors and sword, I heard many dangerous monsters had come out of it, I don't want to be entangled by them.
I don't have any high hopes, I just come here to try my luck, even if I didn't find any fortune I will not be sad.
It is already late afternoon, I will spend a maximum of free hours in the hill before going back to the town as I already paid for the tent space to the town.
As I walk upward toward the hill, I've come across many private grade monsters but I killed then while walking.
I about reach the top of the hill when I heard some sound, I quietly walk toward it. when I got close, I spotted the body of the monster, the monster is definitely dead seeing its position.
I wasn't able to tell which monster's body it as half of its body hidden by brambles but on careful observation, I think it's probably Blank horn antelope.
The sound is still coming from it, I can't see clearly what made the sound as the body is already half hidden.
Making my mind I walk closer to it when my eyes fell on the body, I got startled because I found cute monster cub of a tiger eating the heart of the antelope.
I don't know what monster it is but it one of the cutes I've seen, it white but all over its body had blue lines, these blue lines are radiating enchanting blue glow which kind looked like blue fire.
I don't know what species of tiger monster it is but looking at its size and its level, it's probably still a cub means it is eligible for bonding.
If I am able to capture and sell it, I will able quite some of the money, even it is a useless monster, many girls will buy it just because of its looks.
I was about to move to capture it when I carefully looked at the dead monster body.
From the size of its body, it is a specialist grade monster, it's body full of claw marks, and they probably three inches but when I looked at the size of claw my heats stopped.
Because they are the same size as a little tiger, seeing it fear filled my eyes and I started to retreat slowly and silently but it was too late.
The cub had already noticed me, it looked at me with its cute round eyes, it looked completely harmless but soon it mouth suffused with a smile.
It looked extremely mocking and cruel, suddenly three-inch blue claws come out of its paws and it jumps toward me to attack.
''Clank!" "Thud thud.." as its claws and my sword touched, I felt the immense force that knocks me back, it is a good thing and that I speedily circulated the tenth move of exercise within a minute but all aside that little cub still caught me off guard.
"Clank clank clank!" It started the attack with stopping, its speed is so fast that I am barely able to counter it.
'Slice!' "See!" I let out sound as its claws touched my neck, drawing a thin line of blood.
I was barely able to survive that claw, but I still can't control my heartbeat because of that.
I started retreating while trying to circulate the move of the exercise.
''Clang clang..slice!" I got another scratch but this time it is my cheeks.
Ashlyn wanted to come out but asked her to stay put, I can still handle this, I don't if this little monster alone or had any other accomplices, Ashlyn would be very useful if any little tigers accomplices appeared.
"Clang!" I finally able to reach the eleventh move but it is no use, this monster still has upper hand.
"Uh!" a sound come out of my mouth as I felt sudden heat, all greenery disappeared.
When I looked around I find myself at a completely different place.
"Shit!" I cursed out loud, I accidentally entered the space realm, one moment I was surrounded by greenery and next moment I am at completely barren landscape.
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck!" I cursed again, unstable spaces are always like this, you can never predict anything with them.
