Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality-Chapter 168 Outing [3] - Bounty Board
"Hm... It's a pretty small town. I wonder how it go itself it's own teleportation hub." Syra asked with a raised brow.
"God knows." Herla sighed, now in good condition to finally speak properly again without gagging or puking like last time. 𝘣𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Zelon looked like he might be fine as well, but he didn't admit it since he wanted to be carried by David for as long as possible.
Why use your legs when you've got someone else to carry you the entire way there?
That was his philosophy...
It was also why he was considered one of the laziest people in their class and why he failed and would have to retake most of his exams at the end of the year.
"You know, I heard that no one can create those teleportation hubs except the royal runesmiths despite almost everyone being able to see the runes for themselves before teleporting. That's amazing, right?" Herla spoke with a hint of excitement.
"They probably use an artifact to stabilize the runes. Also, those runes are unlike anything I've ever seen. Each teleportation hub has different runes. Some of the runes are similar to the ones found in most teleportation hubs, but most of them are different. They also change depending on the person standing on them." Syra rambled on about how amazing the rune manship of the teleportation hubs was for a couple of minutes before Herla finally stopped her from saying anything else.
"Ah... Sorry. I rambled again." Syra rubbed the back of her neck.
"It's cool." Herla shrugged before looking around again.
The town was relatively small, but that was from their perspective.
Syra had lived in the city for quite a long time, and this town wouldn't have even qualified as a proper sector. It was only a little big bigger than Uladia, and looked a little richer too.
The people didn't look poor in any way. The houses were ordered nicely, while the streets were laid with stone bricks, making it look clean.
The houses were made out of wood, and while many of the houses throughout the kingdom were made out of stone, this town was in the north, causing it to be much colder.
Wood was a natural insulator, and while many didn't know that, the people who built the houses throughout the kingdom did.
"Oh... Isn't that the adventurer's guild hall?" Herla pointed out while looking at one of the more significant buildings within the town.
"Oh yeah... It is." Syra blinked a couple times before walking toward it.
The hall was quite big. Even from the outside, one could tell that it was almost the same size as the town hall.
A man covered in armor standing in front of the double doors leading into the hall suddenly spotted them looking at the building behind him. Without wasting a second, he walked toward them and asked-
"Are you the kids from the Light Academy?"
Hearing him call them kids, some of them couldn't help but feel agitated, but Syra remained calm and stepped forward.
"Yes, sir. Have you been informed that we would be coming here?" She tilted her head.
"Ah... Yes, I have. Honestly, I'm surprised at how young you look. I thought most of you would at least look like you're about to graduate."
"We're fourth years, sir." Syra said.
"Hmm. I guess that's old enough." He shrugged before turning around, opening the doors to the hall, and walking in.
They all quickly followed behind him, and as they entered, they could not help but open their mouths slightly in shock.
The place was thriving. The atmosphere was filled with energy.
It was honestly amazing. All 6 of them didn't expect the hall to look like this. Hell, from the outside, they hadn't even heard a single peep from within, yet the moment they went through the doors, it was as if the sound had become capable of hearing the sound.
The hall looked more like a community than anything. The moment they entered and began walking in, everyone smiled at them and greeted them as if they had known them for years.
"Please wait here for a moment. I will retrieve something from the district guild master and come back. Don't move from where you're standing." The guard smiled at them gently before walking toward the reception area and talking to a lady at the front desk.
"These people are so nice..." Herla muttered aloud in shock.
"A little too nice. I don't trust them." David whispered between them.
"Come on David... I'm sure they're like this to most people who come to the city." Argon tried to reason.
"No, man... I'm telling you, when it seems to good to be true, it probably is!" David whispered back.
"I'm with David on this one." Zelon commented while looking around at everyone around them, who were still giving them glances every now and then.
"Same here." Falco spoke with caution as he placed his hand on his blade.
"Falco!" Herla whispered to him, but after seeing him not budging on his opinion on them, she turned to Syra for moral support.
"What do you think?" Herla asked, yet Syra didn't answer.
Her eyes were locked onto a board in the distance. While she wouldn't have usually been able to see it from such a distance, the armor she was using gave her the same boosts as someone who had a natural layer of toki around them, allowing them to increase their reflexes and strength despite not having activated the armor yet.
When she looked at the board, at the top, the words "Bounty List" were written in bold. Actually, it was pretty hard to miss, as if it was the main attraction the moment someone entered the hall.
"Uhh... Syra." Herla called out, yet her friend didn't reply as his eyes continued to be transfixed upon the board, particularly one of the people on the board who had the highest bounty of anyone she had ever seen before.
Syra, without skipping another second, took several steps forward before beginning to run, and when she finally got right in front of the board, she grabbed the piece of paper and looked at it closely with narrowed eyes.
And that piece of paper read-
