Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 711 Part 1: A secret path

From MC's perspective:

It was past noon, but still, we were on our way towards the destination. The leader Phill checks out the surroundings from time to time.

Because the place marked on the map seems to be new to him.

Time flies,

After an hour of walking, we see a change in the terrain. The land is becoming dense with green vegetation. I see more insect monsters and poisonous plants.

"Where is he taking us?" I said in my heart.

Others are worried as well. If someone ambushes here, it would become difficult to escape or to fight against the enemy.

Realizing that I paused my movements and started to assess the surroundings.

May, who was observing Vincent's actions from time to time, saw him stop walking. She then alerted April to take a look at him.

In the blink of an eye, everyone saw the newcomer was behaving strangely.

"What happened?" Phill asked. A trace of displeasure can be seen in his eyes. He is already having a tough time figuring out the route.

At this time, the newcomer's action is annoying him.

On the other hand, my eyes flickered. What others don't know is that there are people ahead of us. As a level-6 wizard, I can easily sense the hiding spot of other adventurer teams here.

Like us, they were also finding their way forward. After figuring it out, I couldn't help but think of Theo. I know he is definitely up to something.

But right now, I feel there are more people like him. Otherwise, it's difficult for other adventurers teams to be here in the same place.

"Hey, newcomer. The leader is talking to you," Hank said out loud.

"Oh, I apologize!"

"I felt someone was staring at us. That's why I took a moment to check out the surroundings," I replied to them.

Leader Phill said, "There was no one here. No one knows the place except us and Theo."

His empathy towards the newcomer is slowly disappearing from his heart. Eventually, he will become cold.

He doesn't care whether the newcomer will be alive or not at the end of this trip.

May sighed inside. She is starting to feel irritated. Those earlier emotions when Vincent didn't run away during the incident were disappearing as well.

Now everyone is returning to their original self.

April had maintained distance from the get-go. She didn't find it hard to recover to her usual self.

Hank turned around to walk forward. He didn't waste one word on Vincent anymore.

Seeing the quick change in emotions of everyone. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Up ahead there is nothing but danger.

Everyone is walking up to their grave. I can check what is so dangerous about this place. But I don't want to jump into action yet. A quick glint flashes in my eyes.

Then I started following everyone. At the same time, I'm keeping an eye on other adventurer teams. They are walking into the place from different directions.

Not long after, I found that one of the adventurer teams disappeared. They must have been killed. But here everyone is walking up ahead without any care.

Meanwhile,

Ronnie and his team have entered the area filled with dense vegetation. The sand path came to an end. When his teammates asked him what was this all about.

He asked them to walk through the dense green vegetation. When the team inquired about the destination. He made up a convincing lie.

Theo is not far behind them. He noticed everyone's actions. Seeing that Ronnie is leading them towards the trap.

He heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Everything is going according to the plan. Ronnie's teammate will trigger the trap. It would be a matter of time before everyone in his team dies.

On the other hand,

The leader Phill encounters a deadly ant colony. The ant monsters have occupied the place forward. His appearance immediately alerted those big ants.

Each ant is brown in color and big in size. They have grown up to the waist of human height. Their mandibles can easily cut the body into two pieces.

Before Phill could shout, the ants quickly started charging against him.

At this time, May and others also noticed the situation.

"Quickly attack," May yelled out loud.

April starts to attack by casting magic spells.

Hank rushed forward to punch in one of the monsters' heads.

By that time, the whole ant colony awakened and more monsters started to pour in. In the blink of an eye, everyone is fighting more than one monster at the same time except one.

"This ain't monster can fight against level-4 wizard equally," My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. It's rare to come across insect-type monsters.

But in this place. It seems to be a haven for these types of monsters.

Seeing that everyone is fighting hard. I decided to hide for a while. When everyone is not paying attention to me. I parted ways with them and went a little deeper.

Swish!

A massive centipede monster swiftly crossed the path before me. Seeing that I raised the level of danger in this place.

The centipede seems to be a 4th order monster with peak strength. A poison bite from him can threaten the life of an average level-5 wizard.

But the curiosity in my heart piqued further. There is something in this place. Otherwise, Theo wouldn't have come up with this plan.

Then I pushed down these thoughts before continuing to walk through the forest.

Time flies,

20 minutes went down just like that. But I have come across plant and vine-type monsters. But those Vines are not comparable to Senior Sister's Vine magic.

I have also noticed that rarely any monsters approach me. Though I have hidden my strength. But the monsters were wary of me. So I didn't find any trouble on the way.

Meanwhile,

The leader Phill and others have escaped successfully from the place of the ant colony. After crossing a few distances, they confirmed that no monster was following them.

Then only they managed to regroup to discuss with each other.
