Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 189: Collecting herbs and fruits

(From MCʼs perspective)

Wilderness - the city of Venen,

I continued my journey the following day. This time surprisingly I came across several herbs and fruits. Most of them were low quality but I can fetch good money if I can collect in large numbers.

Time passed,

Eventually, I reached the spot where I hunted last time. When I was pondering, I heard a rustling sound. My pupils constrict hearing that, Iʼm sure this must be some monster. I slowed down my pace and looked for the monsters around me.

Suddenly, I spotted several heads from the distance. ”Wolf Pack,” I muttered in a solemn tone. Itʼs already difficult for me to handle one intermediate first-order monster. I hope the level of these wolves is not similar to the snake monster.

The next second, I saw that wolves were nearing me. They sensed my presence long ago. Seeing that, I instructed the system in mind, ”System, probe the targetʼs detail.”

[Ding! The hostʼs command is recognized.]

[Ding! The host command is executed.]

Seeing the data from the wide status panel, a huge smile blossomed on my face. They are just entry-level first-order monsters. I can end them in a matter of minutes. After taking out the black dagger, I dashed toward the wolves.

Seeing me coming, the wolf pack seemed to be startled. Too not to alert the snake, I didnʼt leak out my breath. When I finally got closer to the monster, I uttered, ”Gravity Field.”

An invisible gravitational field formed within 10 meters. When it appeared, it immediately brought down horrific pressure on the infield.

GRROWL

The wolves let out an agonizing growl before being crushed to the ground.

PFFF PFFF PFFF

The monster wasnʼt able to withstand the terrible field and their bones were completely crushed the next second. Seeing that I paused my movements, there is no need for me to act. I saw their vitality points begin to drop down.

Slowly, I waited for them to lose their breath. After a couple of minutes, the wolves completely lost their breath. Fortunately, my mana reserve was enough to handle this low-level battle. Then I proceed to remove the crystal gems from their head one by one. I take out a brown color crystal gem from Monsterʼs head.

Looking at the pebble size gem, I wondered about the crystal gems from higher-level monsters. After taking a glance at it, I stored it in my storage bracelet. Then I proceed to collect the other three. After collecting them, I looked at the corpses.

Pity, the bones were completely crushed and no one will buy the meat paste of the first ordered monster. But itʼs not wise to leave it here also. The scent will attract other monsters. Soon I began to dispose of the corpse.

After taking care of it, I continued my journey. I covered several distances to reach the hilly regions. Ahead of me was one of the hilly peaks. Seeing that I breathed in relief. Like last time, I want to leave the wilderness on time.

This time I can sell the material at an online store. This also saves me from making an unnecessary trip to adventurer union. When I stride forward to reach the peak of the hill. A sudden doubt rose in my heart.

So far I didnʼt come across any adventurer teams, which is strange. It was the same as previous days. Shivers went down my spine. This is strange. Forget about those level-2 and level-3 wizards, their destination might be wide plain beyond these peaks. What about level-1 wizards?

There is also a considerable amount of wizards in this level-1 bracket. Why canʼt I see one of these? Various doubts come to mind. But soon I recovered from these thoughts and moved forward. Itʼs very dangerous to space out while walking in this wilderness.

Time passed,

Half an hour later, I reached this small hillʼs peak. Fortunately, the path had no obstructions. Sadly, I didnʼt find any first-order monsters. But I used this opportunity to look for herbs and fruits.

”Silver moss,” My eyes gleamed with surprise as I spotted a unique silver moss growing out among the dense green moss. Seeing that, I immediately proceed to collect. From the potions lesson, I heard that this silver moss is one of the basic ingredients for energy recovery potions.

I donʼt know if itʼs true or not. But this is what the teacher had said. After carefully collecting the unique silver moss, I placed it inside the storage bracelet. This silver moss was in small quantity. I need to look for more.

After figuring it out, I begin to check the surroundings, starting with the similar trees around this area. A couple of minutes later, I successfully collected a few batches of silver moss. I donʼt know the exact price of these but I believe it wonʼt be low. At least each batch will sell for alliance points.

This is a good thing for me. Then begin to search a few other areas. Surprisingly, I came across a moon berry tree a few minutes later. Looking at the fruits, a quick glint flashes into my eyes. These fruits were good but they wonʼt have much effect if consumed directly.

Most of the magic herbs and fruits in the wilderness were efficient only if they were concocted into potions. So itʼs useless to consume but money is money after all. Even if I canʼt eat it, I can sell it for food money. .

Then I proceeded to collect some good fruits which were hanging on the tree.

Time passes,

When Iʼm slowly collecting fruits one by one, I felt someone staring at me. Feeling that I paused my movements for a moment before continuing as normal. If I alert the enemy he will act now. So itʼs better to act like I wasnʼt aware. It will make the other party let down his guard.

Also, I want to see the targetʼs status before acting. If itʼs the stronger enemy, then I will escape without making a sound.

A few minutes ago, On the other hand, a group of three people looked in Vincentʼs direction.

”Brother, what do you think?”

”Is that kid really alone?” The skinny wizard raised the question.

They have been keeping an eye on the other party for more than ten minutes. But so far they didnʼt see any sign of team members. One of the reasons that three of them didnʼt act was because.

They were not sure about the other party. If the opposite team has more members then they will leave the place without making a sound. But if not they will be involved in loot and kill. Three of them are not afraid of revenge. Three of them were level-1 wizards in their twenties but they belong to the somewhat reputed guild in Venen city. So they are not afraid of causing trouble.

Also after several killings and lootings, three of them developed some experience in this sinister method. Hardly three of them leave any traces behind after finishing their killings. At this time, the leader of this group was a scar-faced person.

After hearing his friendʼs words, he didnʼt answer him straight away; rather he kept looking at his surroundings to see whether anyone was coming or not. ”Is he alone?” The leader muttered after a few minutes.

He couldnʼt fathom what was going on. The kid ahead appears to be younger than their age. For a teenage kid to appear in this wilderness. There are only two reasons for it. Either he is arranged by his family to train here or he might be the genius kid who can suppress others.

The two cases seemed impossible to him. Because in the first case he didnʼt see any sign of other wizards. So it is more likely that teenage kids came all alone here. As for the second case, his heart refused to think about it.

Because he didnʼt feel any oppression from the other party which means that kid is not stronger than him. And he was likely similar to them. For average wizards, itʼs common for them to venture into the wilderness to make a living. Only by hunting and selling a few half-order monsters can they continue to live.

So the leader was certain that the teenage kid was a loose wizard. A cold glint flashes into his eyes. He saw that another part was continuing to pick up the fruits without any worry. He decided to wait until there is a good opportunity to sneak attack.

After doing numerous killings the leader has now enough understanding, that even the enemy is a single wizard. He wonʼt blindly confront the other party. Three of them used to deal with the enemy by starting a sneak attack on them.

Apart from the two of them, there is a third one who remained silent after listening to their conversations. When the teenage kid collected the last fruit, the leader looked at his team members.
