Chapter 268: Ch 268: Ready for an Expedition
After learning about Prucia's situation, both Sophia and Ruby felt bad for her. It was truly a terrible situation when your future is suddenly decided without your own will and that future was so freaking terrible. Prucia was completely right in running away from there.
But a problem had appeared with Prucia in recent years. It turned out that her source eternal fire was not unlimited. With her spending a decent amount of it while running away and then again consuming it for all these years, the fire source had gotten incredibly small. Even if Prucia completely stopped using the fire still this fire would extinguish in less than two years.
But there was a very easy way for her to rekindle her eternal fire source. She did not need any assistance from the will of the Desolate Plains to do that. But still for her to rekindle and strengthen her eternal fire, she needed to go to the central area of the Desolate Plains of Gahana.
But if Prucia entered the Desolate Plains of Gahana again, the will of that place would definitely try to keep her in at any cost. There was no doubt about that. So for her to come out of the Desolate Plains, she needed the support of powerful blesseds.
But the monsters who worked for the will of the Desolate Plains were extremely powerful. So even a regular UR grade blessed would not be their match. Only the top grade blessed could fight those monsters head on. That was why Ben was doing his best to find a super powerful blessed to work for them. He had even tried to contact Chris, the official strongest person alive but he was not successful in doing that.
The top grade blesseds were all extremely busy and influential people. Even though Ben was a big shot in this city with his influence and money but on the grand stage, he was extremely minor, so none of the super famous blesseds gave him any attention. For this reason, Ben was very grateful that Rein and his group were willing to help him with this task even though he was just a minor character. In the grand scheme of things.
...
But now he was sure that the Desolate Plains of Gahana would be helpful in his mission and was planning a full scale expedition inside it, Rein was going to make all the necessary preparations. Sophia and Ruby also started preparing a few gadgets which might be helpful to them.
After Ruby was accepted as Rein's partner, she had also started hardcore training alongside them. Her strength had improved slightly but she still had a long ways to go if she wanted to fight side by side with Rein and Sophia. So for the time being Ruby was mostly focusing on improving her strength as much as possible in this short span of time. Continue reading stories on m|v-l'
As for Sophia, other than getting some useful gadgets from her own Dark Aqua Conglomerate, she started to occasionally visit the Desolate Plains to investigate it a little bit more before starting the main expedition. She did not take much risks and did not go too deep inside it. But still with her exceptional abilities, she was able to find out about many things which were unknown to everyone before.
Most of the information that Sophia found out were minor and would not be helpful for their expedition. But at the same time these little things might suddenly become useful in unexpected situations.
As for Ben, he had used his vast fortune to buy many things that would be useful in going inside the Desolate Plains. Actually if he was not able to find any powerful UR grades to help him before his death, he himself was planning to accompany Prucia inside. For that reason he had been making a lot of preparation and those things would now come to use.
But it was not only Ben who had been preparing for something like this for all this time. Prucia also knew that she needed to face her fate and enter the Desolate Plains of Gahana once again if she wanted to keep on living. So she also made a lot of preparations during this time.
Actually as she left the Desolate Plains when she was extremely young, she had not reached her full potential at that time. For that reason, even the will of the Desolate Plains had a perfect idea about her capabilities. As the vessel of the source Eternal fire, her potential was extremely high, higher than any other monsters that lived in the Desolate Plains of Gahana.
Just like that, everyone got ready for an expedition to the Desolate Plains with all their might.
