One week later...
Chris's team had finally made it to NL Base's location. It wasn't surprising that they took so long on foot.
After all, unlike the Old World. One couldn't simply walk wherever they wanted all willy-nilly. Their encounter with the R4 was one of the reasons why one couldn't just casually travel...
Although they didn't have any other close encounters with R4s. They still encountered many dangerous beasts. This obviously delayed them by a lot.
However, they didn't mind. After all, they improved their strength a little with every encounter.
"Umm... Are you sure we're at the right place? I mean, I'm not the only one seeing the ominous-looking black lake, right?" James spoke while he and the others looked at the black lack from a treetop in the distance.
They wanted to first spy on the base before making their move. Yet, surprisingly, they were met with a lake...
