"Mia." A tall young man carrying a two handed heavy sword stopped. "We're changing the route."
The temporary six person team had already been in the ecological zone for more than twenty minutes.
They had originally agreed to take the outer perimeter, first accumulating screening points by hunting low level magical beasts, then deciding based on circumstances whether to approach the mana core badge area.
But less than ten minutes after the screening began, one of the members heard a piece of news from other students: someone might have already discovered the mana fluctuation left by a mana core badge in the central area.
No one knew whether it was true or false, but this news alone was enough to change several people's minds.
"We're preparing to go to the central rock valley," the captain continued. "If the news is true, the later we go, the less chance we have."
Mia looked at the map. "There are at least level fifteen magical beasts active there."
