Chapter 2296: 2296. Mirrored Hills

"Understood!" the chorus of voices echoes out in front of Su.

They had all been traveling for a few days at this point through the fields between Genesis and the demi-human kingdom. They had not needed to face many monsters on the way since the distance had grown since the world returned to its flow. However, this was a good thing since they had the energy to begin camp set up.

The area outside of the mirrored hills was easy to deal with. The only issue was that the grasses were all around making it a little harder to keep up the lookout without setting a taller place for the soldiers to watch. But the mages handled a lot of these issues.

They had many magic skills setting up a protection for the camp. This wasn\'t just needed because there were normal monsters around. It was needed for the mysteries which might be coming from the mirrored hills.

These monsters were the greater worries since they seemed to hide under the grasses and in the earth of the hills. Potentially meaning that some of the hills were their nests. The earth manas around the area were matched by the strangeness of the wind manas.

The mages sent here ahead of everyone to monitor the different mana flows had found that these two manas were the focus of the oddities. At night the earth mana might surge with the appearance of monsters. But during the day, the wind mana would increase along with the odd movements of the wind around the many perfectly copied hills.

While this area was not large in the essence of the entirety of the grassy plains, it was large enough to get lost in. especially since everything looked the same. The grasses were also shorter than the normal grasses on the plains. Meaning that it stood out even more.

"The monsters spotted had originally been called serpents, now are being called similar to rats. But they are still not captured and we still do not have an appraisal using a scroll or other skill. They are incredibly evaside along with appearing to repair the damage to a hill with great speed."

"There are also reports that there may be small burrows which can be hidden during the day and night within some hills. They may not all be monster nests and some may just be forgotten mounds of earth after they once were used as nests."

"The current theory is that whatever monsters live here and cause the hills to act this way along with the wind, are recently hatched from their eggs and looking to find food while building their homes. Otherwise, there may be hidden herbs or elemental crystals within the mounds. That is not confirmed yet."

These mages had worked hard to gather this report. Their papers held many details related to the flow of mana within the area along with the plentiful changes within other aspects of the strange area that they had marked out. Their work had also pertained to marking out the boundaries and stationing appropriate guards when Su\'s group reached there.

"You should have all heard their reports related to the potential risks. The adventurer groups will act as the wardens of this area. You will assist the guards and pay attention to any monsters crossing in to and outside of this area. Do not feel you need to fight monsters entering. However, you must call for assistance or battle those leaving. They may not be the same as when they entered."

The response from five adventurer group leaders was a silent nod while they took their copies and moved toward their parties. They had come because Su had recruited Barry and they had all learned from Barry carefully. Their parties had formed through his training of those on the Sigil continent.

All that he trained had not come back to Genesis with him. Many were angels who wished to help their villages and would be establishing their own branches of the adventurer\'s guild. On top of that, they had their responsibilities to their own people. But that did not mean some angels had decided to forge a path elsewhere by following Barry to a continent they had never set foot on before.

"That was very quick. We can make a lot of time up when it comes to the next steps." Barry himself was watching all this and was pretty impressed with how Su had immediately begun moving everyone in to place.

"I had to make the move sooner rather than later. The sun is already setting and at night we might see some unique monsters appearing. If the focus is on earth, we might be able to witness how the hills are appearing and how they are all identical. I want to capture one of the monsters too." These were some lofty goals for the first night that they would be here. But Barry was fine with that.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

"Then I will be setting out-"

"No, you will be preparing the traps. There are rune traps prepared with both mana crystals and different monster meats. I want them set up and you are in charge of that since the rune carvers and the trap masters, or some hunters, need your groups to defend them." Su\'s smile was sweet but Barry knew it was hiding a hard order. He couldn\'t argue with her even though his own desire to head out and fight these unknown monsters existed.

Fighting was what he did. He was ready for it all. He could take on a hoard of these monsters, whatever they were. Regardless, he also understood that his duty to defend these people was greater. He had the strength and his hand selected guards were moving with them while setting these traps.

The aspects that could create these traps had focused on them during their entire journey. It was why they had taken days to get here and not sped up faster. They had brought carriages with small workshops inside. To create rune carved cages and traps with vicious metal teeth. Each needed rune carved mana gems to fuel them as well.

While the traps needed a lot of care to set them and to adjust them, they were also very important to ensuring that some of the monsters unknown to them could be captured properly. They could also protect the guards around since there would be a very loud noise when they were set off alerting everyone to gather and prepare. Just an added bonus that the creators made.

Su watched as Baarry set off and she focused on those she had hand chosen.

They were a slightly larger group of five healers able to buff their group and to heal when needed while moving. Their diverse skills would be able to become the most valuable thing for everyone working right now.

The dragonkin that had come with her were both earth and wind affinity, specifically because Ventus and Terron had promised Su assistance when she had met them at the last Genesis council meeting. They had already heard the smaller reports of high rewind and earth manas around this mysterious area. Therefore, they wished to help in the hopes that unique materials might be found to help their fellow dragons.

She also chose dragonkin over other soldiers because they were naturally tougher. If push came to shove, the dragonkin could use their strength to defend the other better. Especially since she had focused on the earth dragonkin shield warriors and the wind dragonkin wind

saber users.

Tow unique dragonkin who could fulfill defense and attacking while dodging.

This was aside from the elves who had come because they had been training with the echidna. Their classes were varied, but they all had one thing in common. A focus on the natural flow of manas around them. Letting their senses become their best feature when it came to

understanding what was happening around them.

They also had skills that could allow them to better grasp an understanding of how certain natural phenomena would affect others too. Learning with a natural mana focus was something that still would take them years to grasp, however, this was a challenge for them which could yield a larger growth for them in the long run. They couldn\'t turn this chance

down.

Overall, Su was prepared as the sun started to set and the breeze seemed to cease all around them.
