The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 470

Chapter 470 Maps and Geography

Their plan looked like it should be viable if they appeared at Hatbury, and the cleric was sure they could safely appear there. The only concern was that they would still have to cover over four hundred kilometres in three days with the added distance to Hatbury.

Or, they could make it slightly shorter than the road route from Lutonade and go east through the wilderness. That was mostly Orc territory, with some nomadic demon tribes in the region. Both could be quite troublesome, but they didn't usually come near Halsearing, the closest town to the anomaly, as it was largely populated by Minotaurs, who were highly territorial.

"I think that we might be best going down the road. At least we know that it is regularly travelled. We can bring out Thor and the Golems, and travel like a caravan. With the beasts, I don't think that we will be anyone's top targets to attack.

The outfit that Rae made me also looks much like one for a Rogue or assassin, which blends with the magical fighters of the other human nations." Dana suggested.

"Alright, so a rogue, a warrior, two clerics and myself with Thor and the Golems? That sounds like a reasonable group." Karl agreed. _{freeweɓnovel.cøm}

"Bring out the Bodyguards from Remi as well. They should be able to keep up with Thor at a jog, and Naga actually belongs here. Maybe not in that region, unless it's swampy, but we can say that we came from the swamps or are going to them." Tessa suggested.

The beast god cleric looked intrigued. "That could work. The swamp starts not far from the road, and runs from this river here to the Charham River. Most of your journey will be next to the swamp, so it wouldn't be out of character for Naga Warriors to accept a guard contract.

It's a shame that you're only bringing two of them, but your group has other guards. Most would think that you were escorting the clerics."

"I don't suppose that you have a wagon that we could purchase for the trip? Thor likes to pull wagons, and we could put the ladies all inside, so it would be me plus monsters and golems visible." Karl suggested.

"We can get one. There is a portal nearby, and they can bring one from the cities. It won't be cheap, though."

Karl took out ten Gold coins from his inventory.

"Will this cover it?"

The cleric pushed half of the money back. "Not that expensive."

"Thank you for taking care of that for us. It will save us a lot of trouble to look more like average travellers. Well, as average as we can with Thor pulling the wagon."

"I can arrange for some horses, if you would like." The beast god clerics offered.

"No, the part about having Thor pull it is not negotiable. He would be too disappointed if we brought in new beasts just to prevent him from pulling the wagon."

The transformed beast chuckled. Thor did seem like the sort that would enjoy pulling a cart all day.

For a few minutes, everyone examined the map, trying to guess as much as they could about the route, and any detours that they might have to take in order to get to the anomaly on time.

Karl gestured at the direct route across the rural areas. "From what it looks like, even if we have the open wilderness, we should be alright. None of this is mountainous or forest, at least not on the north side of the road, where we will be looking for the anomaly.

We've got the coordinates, but once we get close, it will just be a guessing game until we actually see and activate the device to keep the anomaly stable.
