Chapter 183: Hunting for the Forest Spirit Seed Part 21
Fortunately, Kayn\'s group was able to get away from that place safely.
Deep inside, they were feeling glad that whatever that was, it didn\'t chase after them. Otherwise, they are sure that a few of them won\'t be able to escape and get away alive.
"What was that?!" Friedrich turns to Kayn, and so was everyone.
"I also don\'t have a clue what it was, but I am sure that it didn\'t have any good intention on us when it decided to trap us," Kayn knew for sure that if they decided at that time to turn back and look for another way out, that would be the end for them.
Luckily, Natas was present to remind Kayn of the signs of danger.
"Whatever it was doesn\'t matter. What matters right now is we get back to the surface because we are still in its territory for sure," Cedric doesn\'t want to stay in this underwater cave system any longer anymore after witnessing and experiencing that next-to-death scenario.
"That, I agree," Roshan decided to turn serious. He is fully aware that if at that time things have truly gone wrong, he would have no other choice but to be the first one to step forward and save everyone\'s life and make sure that they get out of this place alive and well. It doesn\'t whether he like it or not, because he has to still do it as it is his responsibility as the party\'s tank.
"Let\'s continue swimming while we talk," Friedrich still wants to know what Kayn discovered.
Kayn knew, so he decided not to hide. "The reason why I suspect that something was wrong was because I also knew that a tunnel was there the previous time,"
"If you and I felt the same, there\'s only one meaning to that — something isn\'t right," Kayn wasn\'t honestly referring to Friedrich but to Natas instead.
Natas knew, so he nodded his head in appreciation for Kayn\'s trust in him.
"My next question is, should we go back tomorrow or not?"
Hearing Friedrich\'s question, everyone immediately stopped swimming and turned to look at Kayn.
"As much as I want to say that we should stop this exploration and focus on preparing for the upcoming war, I can\'t because we can\'t stop," Kayn was also helpless. "But, anyone who doesn\'t want to go tomorrow, can choose to stay. Even if I am the only one going, I will still go,"
"I\'ll think about it," Cedric responded before turning around and continuing to swim.
Roshan and Kimberly also express that they are going to give their response tomorrow before turning around to leave.
"I know that this is very important for you, but if my men choose to stay tomorrow, I will unfortunately also have to stay with them," Friedrich has a responsibility, and that is to take care of all of his men and make sure that they don\'t die, just like Kayn whose responsibility is to achieve whatever goal he has by coming into \'The Bridge\'.
"I understand," Kayn is not stupid enough to believe that no one was discouraged. Even he is slightly discouraged after going through that. But, his mental fortitude that\'s been cultivated by experiencing countless life-to-death situations made him firm to not waver in his goal not long after.
He won\'t hold it against them if they don\'t want to go with him tomorrow. At the same time, they also can\'t blame him if he remembers that this is the limit to the extent of favor he would be returning to them in the future.
That\'s just reality, and he can\'t blame anyone or himself for things he can\'t control.
It didn\'t take long for Kayn\'s group to reach the surface.
As soon as they got out, Cedric and the others immediately inform Gnarlak to close the gate as quickly as possible in case that unknown being secretly followed them and uses that gate to come up to their camp. If ever that happens, everything that they are planning would be in ruins.
"Did something happen?" Gnarlak asked as soon as he approached Kayn. He was only close to Kayn and Friedrich, so he didn\'t bother asking the others and simply followed their orders.
Kayn simply waves his hand in response and a huge stalagmite-looking \'part of a monster\'s body\' with blood still oozing out from the wound that was cut not long ago was taken out from his Storage Ring.
The supposed \'part of a monster\'s body\' was really huge and long, almost five meters in width and twenty meters in length.
"This is what happened,"
"Is that a tentacle?" Gnarlak immediately recognizes the \'part of a monster\'s body\'.
"A tentacle?" Kayn uttered in surprise. Now that Gnarlak mentioned it, it does indeed look like a tentacle from an octopus or squid.
"Yes," Gnarlak nodded. "We\'ve been hunting octopus during our travels, and I swear this thing resembles an octopus\' or squid\'s tentacles,"
"Can you take that and confirm whether it\'s really a tentacle?"
"Of course,"
Kayn threw a Storage Ring to Gnarlak for the latter to use in carrying the huge and obviously heavy tentacle.
"Inform me as soon as you are done,"
Once they were done with that, Kayn bid farewell as he and the others made their way to their huts.
Along the way, Friedrich can\'t help saying. "If what Gnarlak said just now is proven true, then we were definitely very lucky back then,"
Any octopus or squid-like monsters are very infamous for being listed as one of the deadliest monsters ever recorded throughout history.
Even back on Earth stories about them sinking down huge ships way before the arrival of the \'Tower\' already existed.
And with the arrival of the \'Tower\', those stories just became events that took place almost everywhere both on Earth and inside the \'Tower\'. There were even recorded videos where they took down coastal cities.
They are scary, huge, and very deadly, especially when they are in their habitat.
"Luck?" Kayn does believe in luck. But he doesn\'t believe that they were only able to escape back then because of luck. There should be another reason for that, especially if he considers the fact that the monster didn\'t chase after them even after they cut one of its tentacles. "Maybe it was…"
Kayn bid farewell to Friedrich and the others as he made his way to his tent.
