Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72 - Wonder

I slept more comfortably than I imagined, the denser concentration of energy in this world made it feel like you were in the best possible location anywhere you went. I went down the wooden stairs to see people already actively moving in and out of the inn.

The receptionist with the red hair was already up at the counter. I went towards her and ordered another Fiery Soup to have for breakfast before I went out. Thus, the morning began on a happy note

I moved outside into the town and saw the world during daytime for the first time. A blanket of snow covered the buildings and the paths, making for a beautiful sight as the rays of the sun shone through

I looked up to see the huge mountains surrounding us far in the distance as well as the four grand land masses that were stably positioned in the air without a single movement. I still couldn’t even begin to understand how such a thing was possible

A few people could be seen every now and then ascending the long brides attached further inland from this town.

I looked away from the majestic sight of floating islands and went towards the [Mercenary’s Hideout], where a collection of colorful rugged men and women were cl.u.s.tered

Putting energy into the medal I received the day before, most of the thin lines of people were grouped up in one location that allowed me to find them all very easily. There was a large space behind the grand building that had white winged beasts moving around. Someone was holding a large basin that he pulled out large chunks of meat from to feed the beasts

The people in the extermination task force were cl.u.s.tered in a group on the side talking amongst themselves as they all waited for the appointed time.

The minutes passed by quickly as a large man whose entire body emanated power came out to the clearing.

"Alright boys and girls, gather around!"

At these words, the mercenaries that were mostly rank A with a few rank S ones in the group all looked towards this figure with full attention.

"The mission this time is plain and simple. The Skypeak Nest is showing signs of rapid movements again, which means the beasts are increasing and getting more restless. We’re not gonna spend too much time there, just clear out a few leaders and their groups before we return. I am Captain Ryner, and I’ll be leading this excursion to make sure there are no deaths!"

The large man spoke out with a powerful voice that seemed to rouse the spirits of everyone here.

"After we successfully return, each person in attendance will receive 5,000 gold coins and keep any cores from the beasts they manage to take down."
