Chapter 84 Transport
Surprisingly, Vincent collected a total of 8 bottles of Serene Water.
It was as if the pond was giving more rewards considering how they managed to kill the Spirit Guardians in a matter of seconds. Aside from that, this pond was also not listed on the map he purchased.
\'Should I sell this information?\' Vincent mused as he looked at the bottle in his hands.
[ Do you want to Appraise the item? ]
The notification came up after triggering the skill. Without any hesitation, he confirmed. He wanted to know why this water is being
"Yes."
Ding!
[ Appraisal has been successful. ]
[ You have discovered a Vial of Serene Water. ]
[ A Vial of Serene Water ]
[ Quality: Mid-Grade
Number of Enhancements: 0/10
Magic Immunity: 10
Description: A magical liquid that can temporarily increase the user\'s Magic Immunity.
Remarks: Every enhancement will improve the mana units. ]
"No wonder…"
Vincent muttered after appraising the item. The Magic Immunity would be helpful not just against Mana Arts Practitioner but also against Magic Beasts while hunting.
This item is indeed something that many would be interested in.
However, the only problem with this is that it only has a low-level immunity even if it\'s of mid-grade quality. It means that people can still find other items like shields or armors even without this Vial of Serene Water.
\'Hmm… I guess this system is quite meticulous.\' Vincent thought after analyzing the notification.
He realized that weapons or equipment\'s quality, are ranked as Poor, Common, Uncommon, Rare, Unique, and so forth.
On the other hand, Pills and Skills\' quality are ranked as Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and higher.
As for special liquids like Serene Water or potions like Mana Recovery Potion, their quality was ranked as Low-Grade, Mid-Grade, and High-Grade.
"It seems that most of the precious plants or medicinal herbs have been harvested already. It would be a waste of time checking them. I think that it should be fine to leave right now." Tara suggested as soon as she noticed that Vincent was done arranging his items.
"That\'s true. There were a lot of people waiting for them to grow after all. Let\'s leave this dungeon then."
"Yes, I think so too. Let\'s go. We will be using a different path to go outside… Follow me."
"Alright… We made a decent harvest today so I will work hard making you high-quality potions, Tara."
"That\'s what I like to hear. I will look forward to that."
Tara replied with a smile on her face.

After a few more minutes passed, Vincent and Tara came out of the dungeon… They have used a different path this time and barely encountered any dungeon creatures.
Since he has no plans to return to this dungeon, he decided to sell the information about the second pond as well. This made him earn an additional 50 gold coins in his pocket.
As Vincent was a bit exhausted after all of this, they decided to rest at the nearest town just an hour away from the dungeon.
The two then continued traveling for three more days and it was quite uneventful.
They have not encountered any bandits but mostly Savage Beasts along the road. It was on the fourth day that they encountered battle in the middle of the road.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound of clashing swords rang out as it caught Vincent and Tara\'s attention. They immediately got off the carriage and went to check what was going on.
They hid their presence carefully as Vincent moved using his Shrouded Steps while Tara used her trick as well.
Soon, they found a group that seemed like a merchant caravan was being targeted by a group of bandits.
\'Wait… They don\'t look like bandits. They have uniforms and were very skilled in saber. Are they a member of a sect or clan?\'
Vincent mused after noticing that all members of the \'bandit group\' are wearing black cloth armor and a red scarf tied on their right arm.
"Ahh! Destroy the supplies! Burn them!"
"Accck! Hurry!"
"Just focus on destroying the supplies! Fire! Use fire!"
The \'bandits\' shouted as they aim their magic tools at the wagons being protected by the guards.
"Hmm?"
Vincent thought of helping the merchant caravan but surprisingly, they are actually winning even with a numerical disadvantage. They actually have five Mana Practitioners capable of using high-rank Magic Tools to protect their goods.
The merchant caravan only has about 20 guards while the \'bandits\' have over 30 of them.
The guards were even trying to protect the merchants and the weak porters hiding at the center of the mess.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
The fire elemental Mana Arts did nothing as the guards continued suppressing the \'bandits\'.
"They\'re winning…" Vincent muttered as he carefully observed the situation.
As expected, after ten more minutes, the battle ended as the guards won the battle against the bandits.
"You there! Stop hiding!"
The leader of the guards who was over two meters tall shouted. After killing all the bandits, he seemed already exhausted but his imposing aura can\'t be ignored.
He stood proudly in front of the other guards while pointing his sword in Vincent\'s direction.
\'As expected, although I already perfected my Shrouded Steps, it is still a Tier 1 Mana Arts. Stronger Mana Practitioner will still have a method to sense my presence.\'
Realizing that he has been discovered, Vincent came out with Tara.
"Hmm? There are two of you?" The leader was surprised after seeing them walk out from the bushes.
"Yes… We heard a fight so we immediately came thinking that you might need some help. We heard that there are bandits around here after all. Our carriage is just behind that tree."
Vincent said as he pointed in the direction of their carriage.
The guard leader also noticed that the two don\'t have any visible weapons and they don\'t look like enemies as well.
Tara is wearing an elegant blue dress under her coat while Vincent looks a bit too young and wasn\'t even wearing even leather armor. He\'s not carrying any swords or blades as well.
After considering all of this, the man finally sighed in relief as he kneeled on the ground, exhausted.
Although they won the battle, 4 of them died just now. He\'s also barely holding on as he also received multiple wounds in that battle.
"Leader Han!"
The other guards shouted as they immediately help their leader.
Vincent and Tara looked at each other as they decided to help the injured.
Later on, they discovered that this caravan is actually trying to transport Magic Tools to the Arms City to help the army fight off against the Barbarians!
