Gravity Mage with Level-Up System - Chapter 1697: Scorch Creek City

Chapter 1697: Scorch Creek City

From MC’s Perspective

Hearing that there were only a few survivors, I didn’t know what to say. It was hard to tell whether they were going to survive the turmoil.

I didn’t expect the fall of a remote city could cause such a disturbance.

Then I told them to inform the locals to leave the place. If possible, they should find shelter in other towns or villages.

Swoosh!

Otto and Patrick disappeared from the spot. They went to inform those remaining survivors.

At this time, the two old men were surprised.

They now realized that the other two Supremes and Hank were listening to the young man. They were not fools.

They had realized that the identity of the young man was not simple. The people around me could be guards.

Since they had decided to be wandering wizards, they didn’t plan to go back on their own words.

Hank understood their reactions, but he didn’t plan to explain. Master Vincent’s real identity would be even more shocking to them.

Shortly afterwards,

Patrick and Otto came back. Then we resumed our journey and started walking on foot.

We could have used the flying ability, but we would have missed towns like this one.

Time passed by.

We continued to walk through the plains. If someone appeared, we could easily see them.

We started coming across other wandering wizard groups. They joined us from different directions.

There were paths connecting to the main path here. Everyone knew that there was a city ahead.

While we were walking, I came to know about the city. The city ahead was called Scorch Creek City. Like the name suggested, the city had a small river behind it.

The color of the river was red. It joined into a big lake miles away. After hearing about the city from them, I got more excited.

Not only was the city big, but it also had a beautiful river running behind it. There was also a big lake nearby.

A day passed by, more and more wizard groups joined the line. But no one dared to cause trouble.

No one dared to offend us. We had four Supreme Wizards, so we were the strongest team there.

I glanced at Otto and Patrick. Otto was using his magic again. Patrick was scanning the ground.

Then I turned towards Hank. He was the only one who was looking ahead.

[Scorch Creek City]

Soon, we reached the city. There was a huge city gate in front of us. Compared to previous cities, this city was a big one.

It appeared we had finally left the remote area.

We walked up to the gate. The huge city was surrounded by walls and had watch towers on four sides.

“The entry fee is 100 mid-grade mana stones,” one of the old men said.

Hearing that, Patrick took a small pouch out. It had mid-grade mana stones. Then he stood behind the line.

Time passed.

When it was our turn, the guards didn’t ask about our identities. They believed we were wandering wizards.

The two old men seemed to have acquaintances among them, so further inspection was not done.

We walked through the gate and entered the city. We came across bustling streets. The crowds were everywhere.

“Let’s find a hotel to stay at,” I said to them.

“We have a place we know here, so let’s part ways. We will meet each other in a few days,” one of the old men said.

He was speaking to me. It showed that my identity was exposed. Nothing could be done about that, so I nodded to them.

Then we parted ways. The four of us started heading towards the hotel. After going through the first street, we came across the hotel on the second street.

[Rest Hotel]

The name was simple, but the building was a 10-floor glass building. We walked into the hotel and booked the premium suite again.

The manager and the hotel staff became excited. I took the mid-grade mana stone pouch out and paid.

None of the people had seen super-grade mana stones here. If I took them out, it would be like exposing myself.

Then the manager took us to the premium suite. It was on the 9th floor. One side of the 9th floor was the premium suite.

After entering the room, he showed us around. Then he left the place. I told the others to rest before appearing inside the Gregor Mansion.

I found nothing wrong in the room with the system. The vine monster was awake in the hall. I communicated with it for a minute before going to bed to rest.

Outside,

Hank, Patrick, and Otto scanned the whole room again. They didn’t find any gadgets there.

Otto said, “The aftermath of the Sand Fall City destruction is going to reach here.”

“Don’t worry, no one will target us,” Patrick said.

Hank didn’t know what to say. He went to the room to rest. Patrick and Otto exchanged looks. They had been traveling for a long time. They went to their respective bedrooms.

…

Meanwhile,

The two old men were in their acquaintance’s house. They were welcomed to stay there. Right now, the two old men had the opportunity to discuss the identity of the people who traveled with them.

“I think it’s a young master of a certain family who was sent on a mission,” an eagle-nosed old man said.

“It’s good that we didn’t cause problems for the young man,” the bald-headed old man replied.

“Should we continue to travel with them?” the bald-headed old man asked.

The eyes of the eagle-nosed old man flickered.

He said, “We should part ways. We still don’t know what their plan is. Their enemies could be chasing them from behind.”

“What if a Magic Lord appears?” he added.

Hearing that, the bald-headed old man’s expression changed drastically. He almost forgot about the danger.

“You are right. Maybe we should leave the city before them. Then there is no reason to explain to them,” he said.

The eagle-nosed old man agreed as well. Because they couldn’t fight against the two Supreme Wizards. They were stronger than them.
