Chapter 28: Berry Bomb
Adrian let out a pent up breath, a feeling of release coming from his bones as a rune condensed after days of hard work.
Using his mana to sense his bone structure looking at a small rune that was written with ancient characters and symbols. He was able to use his mana to see or 'sense' what was on or around him in a small area. As he got stronger this range would increase along with his power.
The rune he had condensed was [Berry Bomb], it allowed him to turn his mana into berries that he could throw and then he could choose to explode them dealing a large amount of damage. Although they were not as strong as a fireball, they still did a good amount of damage.
He walked into the forest as he cast [Berry Bomb] and three berries appeared in his hand he threw them at a tree in the distance, and the first two missed but the third hit the tree blasting a small hole in it.
He messed around for a while longer testing the limits of his ability before he decided he was ready to leave. He also realized he needed to practice aiming with his skill, but that was for later. It would be very embarrassing if he got into a fight and missed all his shots causing him to die. Even if his enemy didn't kill him he'd die from embarrassment.
He packed some stuff he would need for the trip inside of a bag he purchased with DP before he called over Gorbin and Gabbie. He was going to bring those two with him to the city, Gabbie because she was the smartest of the goblins, and Gorbin because he was pretty strong.
He left the strongest in order to guard the dungeon core, although he could have brought Gobby he figured that if there was a fight Gobby wouldn't be much help even though he was strong.
They walked through the forest towards the Sunfire plains, Adrian walking and the two goblins on their wolves. Adrian would not be able to purchase a mount for himself because they would just lose all their mana once they left the dungeon territory and die.
The wolves, however, were able to leave the territory now due to their unique connection with the goblins, so Gorbin and Gabbie had their own mounts. Adrian was slightly irked that he as the master had to walk, but there was nothing he could do. It's not like he could ride the verdant wolves, as they would not be able to support him.
Looking at the vast expanse of golden grass blowing in the wind before him Adrian marveled at its beauty. He had learned that they were called the Sunfire plains because they often caught fire due to the heat from the sun. Prairie fires were all too common in this area.
They headed towards the giant pillar, which was very convenient as otherwise Adrian would not know which direction to head in order to get to the city. It's not like the elf from before had given him directions.
While walking Adrian decided to inspect his stats out of boredom.

He was almost stronger than his wolf riders now! If his wolf riders didn't increase their strength then he would pass them when he condensed his next rune! Although it would be some time before that happened he was looking forward to it. According to this world's standards he should be considered an Apprentice Magus.
After about a day's worth of travel they arrived in front of the city, the sun halfway into the sky. They had to sleep out in the plains, and Adrian was tired from the journey.
They walked up to the gate as the guards in front yelled "Oi! Let me see your identification!" eyeballing the two goblins that were next to Adrian.
"Erm- We are on our way to the adventurer's association in order to get identification. We were recommended by someone called Mara Alois." He wasn't exactly lying right? She did tell them to come to the adventurer's association after all.
"You know Mara? Who is she to you?" The guard said as his tone contained hints of jealousy.
"She beat us up and as a sorry for her mistake she recommended us to come here to Endless City" Adrian said
"Oh good!" the guard said
"Good?"
The guard cleared his throat realizing he misspoke and said "Ok, I will lead you to the adventurer's guild. You look poor so don't worry about the entrance fee. As friends of Mara you will be exempted this time".
He then turned towards one of the guards next to him explaining he would lead us to the adventurer's guild and would be back later.
He turned towards Adrian and the Goblins as he waved them over and started walking into the City. The city had built a wall around the entirety of the southern section of the pillar that shot into the sky.
Walking through the dirt streets Adrian looked around noticing the variety of races that were walking about. There were some races he had never even seen before, like a green dude with four arms!
When he saw a beautiful beastman woman with rabbit ears he audibly gasped causing the guard to look at him sideways as he said "What? Never seen a beastmen before? You country bumpkin! Don't try anything funny! It's no wonder that Mara decided to beat you up!"
Adrian smiled wryly at this and kept his thoughts to himself as they eventually arrived at the entrance to the adventurer's guild, upon which the gate guard said his goodbyes and left back to return to his post.
Adrian told the Goblins to leave their wolves outside in the stable that was nearby as they entered into the Adventurer's Guild.
