Chapter 413: 413. Going On A Personal Expedition

After bidding them another farewell, he went out of the Guild Hall and came into the main foyer. There were many new faces outside. These were the new players who just joined their guild. The Man and Bowler were busy organizing them.

The Guild Hall was not a place where everyone could go into, as it housed the guild core. The platform for controlling the headquater's interface was also in this hall, thus the entrance to the Guild Hall could be set to only allow specific members to enter.

Jack walked quickly avoiding contact with the new recruits. He went to the room that housed the guild's Power Crystal first. He had so many contribution points so he decided to get the active buff. He paid 40 contribution points for a 12 hours buff. He then went to the teleportation chamber. Pointy Tip was waiting for him there.

Jack had asked Tip and Bowler to concoct several alchemical products for him. He had messaged them to come to the teleportation chamber to give him the ones they had produced. Since Bowler was busy with the new recruits, he had passed his potions to Tip.

Tip handed Jack 50 Regeneration Potion, 50 Rejuvenation Potion, and 20 Poison Salve. Jack had provided them with the coins to buy the ingredients, hence they could produce these numbers. They were happy about it since they could increase their Alchemist's proficiency.

For the Poison Salve, 20 was the maximum number Tip could produce since there was no more poison gland available. Jack had asked Dylan to procure some and gave them to Ellie. If Ellie got the ingredient, she would contact Tip. Jack had introduced the two.

Jack looked at the detail of the Poison Salve.

Poison Salve (Rare Consumable)

Applied on a physical weapon.

The applied weapon has a 50% chance to inflict Poison and Weakness status.

Add 20% earth damage.

Duration: 2 hours

The duration was less than the Whetstone, but the buff was better, even than an enhanced Whetstone. His Storm Breaker already had the ability of 15% chance to inflict poison status. If he applied this Poison Salve to it, it would most likely inflict poison two out of three slashes.

The 20% damage boost was the same as the enhanced whetstone, but this one caused Earth damage, so for one who had no earth resistance, they would receive more damage even if they had a high defense. Someone might complain about a poison salve causing earth damage, but Jack didn't bother about it.

Probably because the creator of this world wanted to keep it simple to seven types of elemental damage. Well, then again, there was also that chaos damage. Peniel also mentioned that there was one other type that was similar to chaos damage as it also had no registered resistance against it. Peniel didn't tell him though what that last damage type was.

After storing the potions and poison salves, he activated the teleportation device.

He teleported to Thereath first before paying another fee to teleport to Thesewal. Once he arrived there, he registered the guild portal with this Portal Zone in Thesewal. Now, one could use the guild's portal to teleport to Thesewal, though of course if one was not a member of the Kingdom Faction, they would immediately get expelled by the guards guarding the portal. Jack had informed Jeanny to set a restriction in the Teleportation Chamber so that not everyone could select the option to teleport to Thesewal.

He went to complete his faction quest which was delivering a parcel to this town. In the quest description, it said it was to be delivered to the infirmary. He had gone there the last time he was here, so he had no problem finding the place quickly.

When he went in, the place was much different than the last time he was here. Last time the place had been turned into an emergency hospital with bunk beds all over the place. Now those bunk beds were gone already, leaving just a few of them, separated by walls made of curtains. The place looked more spacious and neat now.

He immediately saw someone he recognized. He called out to the person, "Yo, Albert! You never seem to leave this place, do you?"

Albert turned around with an annoyed face, who the hell called him in such a disrespectful way?

"It's you! That impolite outworlder! I see you are still as rude as ever," Albert replied. "Oh, I see you even got a pet," he added when he saw Peniel who was hanging around on Jack's shoulder.

"Hey, you are very rude yourself!" Peniel complained.

"Oh, come on. I thought we have bonded since the last time? You even asked Gus to give me a recipe for the Basic Regeneration Potion. Doesn't that say that you like me already?"

"I like your sister! I am just giving that as a small reward for you helping solve that disease problem from turning into an epidemic. I don't like to owe people anything."

"Ah, look at you, why can't you just be honest with yourself? Anyway, here is a package for this infirmary. I'm not sure who to give it to. There is no description on it."

"A package?" Albert received the parcel. He checked on it for a while before saying to Jack, "wait here a moment." Then he went away in swift steps.

"Hey! Why should I wait?" Jack called. Albert was already gone into another room with the parcel.

"Should I just leave?" Jack asked Peniel.

"Yeah, just leave that rude person," Peniel replied, she was still grumpy after being called a pet.

Though Peniel agreed to it, Jack still decided to stay. The guy's tone sounded serious. Also, Jack had known him to be not the type that joked around.

Albert soon returned and gave an even smaller parcel to Jack.

"What's this?" Jack asked in bewilderment.

"I need you to send this to the grand healer at the infirmary in Themetus," Albert replied.

"What the hell! Do you think I am a postman?" Jack complained. At the same time, he received a notification, "update to current kingdom faction quest, Delivering parcel to Thesewal, you need to deliver another parcel to the city of Themetus in order to complete the quest."

'What the… It can do that? This is entrapment! How can a quest tell you to do one thing and then change to a completely different thing?' Jack complained in his mind.

'Well, sometimes that can happen,' Peniel answered him through her mind also. 'so, are you going to reject? You will consider failing the entire quest if you reject. Anyway, the place we are going to is coincidentally close to that city. We can go there once you are done accumulating the exp points for the Lightning God Barrage.'

'And use the Portal Zone there to go back to Thereath or Heavenly Citadel. Yes, that sounds like a good plan.'

"Okay, I accept," Jack said as he received the small parcel from Albert.

"One thing. Do not open it!" Albert warned.

"What do you take me for? I pride myself as a reliable postman!" Jack replied.

"Who just now complained about being treated as a postman?" Peniel mocked.

Luckily this small parcel was not the kind of package that couldn't be stored inside a player's storage bag. Otherwise, Jack would have to tie it to his belt, but that would also mean a risk of losing it.

He didn't spend more time chit-chatting with the Chief Healer, nor did Albert show any interest in it. They said their farewell and Jack headed directly to the town exit. Jack thought at first to say hi to Guss, but decided against it. What if that commander ended up throwing him another request as well? He would never get to his destination if so.

Once he was out of town, he asked Peniel. "Which way?"

"Head West," Peniel answered.

Jack summoned his uncommon stallion and proceed to ride it to the West.

Jack vanquished the monsters on his way. Peniel chose a route where they only passed through an area with monsters at the average of level 30, so Jack had no problem dealing with them.

But he still prioritized traveling speed over monster grinding. It would be at his destination that he would focus on accumulating the exp. In his travel, he only fought if he had no other choice or if the monsters were on his hunting lists.

The journey was largely uneventful. On the morning of the second day after he departed from Thesewal, he received another notification again about the race age thing. He was now two months old and the race skill: Limitless Potential, had changed from rank 1 to rank 2. It now provided him with HP +300, Stamina/MP +50, and all attributes except luck +2.

The HP increased was rather steep compared to the other for this race skill. He was glad of it of course. Player's HP was the one most lacking if compared to monsters and NPCs. He hoped that this stat could increase more in the future.

On the third day, an eventful matter occurred.
