Chapter 114 - Fire Ghoul Cave
The moment they entered the beast mountain, not only their surroundings changed but they were completely separated from the outside of the bridge.
After being surprised with the sudden change in the surroundings, Henrick thought of the baby fire monkey and looked for it.
'Eek eek'
He didn't search for much time before the baby fire monkey started running towards him, making monkey noises.
"So, there is another way to enter the beast mountain," Seeing the baby fire monkey, Nick muttered in a barely audible voice.
"Looks like it," Even though it was barely audible, with Henrick's enhanced senses, he could clearly hear it.
"Shall we try that way when we enter the beast mountain the next time," Nick suggested to Henrick regarding it because he didn't want to waste 100 contribution points every time he visited the beast mountain.
"Let me ask Spark about this another way," Henrick also wanted to try it. So, he nodded his head and decided to ask the baby fire monkey about it.
'Master, I am back,'
The moment it reached Henrick, it directly jumped on to his shoulder and replied in the immature little boy's voice.
"Good," Henrick patted the small head of the baby fire monkey as he asked, "So, can we two enter the beast mountain from the direction you came from?"
Henrick slowly asked the small baby fire monkey regarding the other way into the beast mountain.
'Eek eek'
'No, master. Even I barely enter the beast mountain from that way. With your sizes, it is impossible to enter,'
Nick only heard the monkey noises whereas, in Henrick's head, the immature little boy's voice resounded as the baby fire monkey shook its head.
That's right!
Since Henrick was its master, only he could hear the baby fire monkey's thoughts because it was still not strong enough to speak human speech through its mouth.
"I know it is impossible for us to enter from the other entrance. Let's complete the missions for now," Before Henrick could say something, Nick already understood it was impossible from the baby fire monkey's actions. So, he asked Henrick to leave that matter.
"Okay. First, let's finish our group mission and then go the separate ways for our solo missions," Henrick suggested doing the group missions first which was instantly agreed by Nick because it was a good choice.
"So, where is the location of our group mission?" Henrick took out the mission paper to check for the location of the missions.
"No need to bother looking at the paper. Those caves are called Flame ghoul caves that could be seen almost everywhere on the beast mountain. All we have to is just walk a little or ask your monkey for help,"
Since they had an experienced guide on their team, Nick suggested taking help from the baby fire monkey.
"Spark, where is the nearest fire ghoul cave?" Since he believed that the baby fire monkey was from the beast mountain, Henrick asked it for the nearest fire ghoul cave.
'Eek eek'
The baby fire monkey thought for a moment and looked at its surroundings before replying to Henrick, 'Follow me, master.'
As soon as it finished its words, the baby fire monkey jumped down from Henrick's shoulder and rushed towards a specific direction.
"Let's go, Nick,"
Soon, Henrick and Nick ran after the baby fire monkey.
'Swoosh' 'Swoosh'
After running for a few minutes, a couple of caves appeared in their vision and the baby fire monkey stopped in front of one of the caves and looked at them while pointing its finger towards that cave.
"Huh? Why did your monkey point at the cave? Is there something special in that cave?" Nick was confused at the baby fire monkey's actions and asked Henrick.
"Who knows? Since we came to clear one of these caves, let's go," Henrick didn't think much because he was excited for his first mission and first real fight after he started his cultivation. So, he moved towards the fire ghoul cave that the baby fire monkey was pointing at.
Nick also nodded his head as he was also excited about his first fight.
'Master, this cave has the lowest number of fire ghouls because, in the past, I watched many disciples choose this cave over other caves and easily cleared it,'
Just when they were about to enter the cave, Henrick heard the immature little boy's voice in his head.
Actually, once the group of outer sect disciples clear the caves, the upper echelon of the beast mountain would place some more new fire ghouls. So, the baby fire monkey saw the multiple groups of outer sect disciples enter the same fire ghoul cave to clear.
'Nevermind. We will clear this cave first. If it is too easy, then we will try the other cave,' Henrick didn't have to directly enter the cave with more fire ghouls when he didn't have much information on the fire ghouls. Anyway, if this cave was too easy, they could always try for another cave just for battle experience.
Soon, the two outer sect disciples along with a small baby fire monkey entered the cave.
'Holy heck! This cave is even better than our cultivation abodes,'
As soon as they entered the fire ghoul cave, they were surprised by the rich fire elements in the cave and at the same time, it was brighter than their cultivation abodes making them surprised.
"Henrick, be careful. Once I heard from a senior outer sect disciple, each fire ghoul cave has a minimum of 100 fire ghouls of rank 1 strength and 1 peak rank 2 fire ghoul,"
After coming out his cultivation abode, Nick, by chance heard the conversation between two outer sect disciples regarding their first newbie mission.
At the time, he didn't understand much; however, after picking the mission related to the fire ghoul caves, Nick understood what they had talked and explained to Henrick about it.
'Aragh arr arr'
Just as Henrick nodded his head, they heard some noises from the depths of the cave.
