Transmigrated into Another Apocalyptic World (BL) - Chapter 335

Chapter 335: Chapter 334: Mr. Acacia’s warning

After Luciel removed the vines around Mr. Acacia and turned them into another barricade in the area, he talked to Mr. Acacia for a bit.

Of course, because he still planned to go and rest, he only greeted Mr. Acacia and told him that they would be going out of the base and might only be back after a month. And if they had to go farther, then maybe they would only be back after two or three months.

He thought that Mr. Acacia would simply wish them well like he did before they left the village. But this time, Mr. Acacia gave him a warning—to be careful of going west.

“West? Why should we be careful of going west?”

“I can feel it more clearly now that I’m out of the protection of the forest. I’m absorbing energy and also releasing some of it, so I can sense that the energy in the west is more unbalanced and more chaotic. But I’m still too far from the west to know exactly why it feels that way.”

“The energy is more chaotic?”

“Yes, it’s more chaotic there, so there might be more of those creatures you call zombies. This place is still very far from the west, but I still have to warn you not to go too far in that direction.”

“I see. Thanks for the warning, Mr. Acacia. Have you also mentioned it to those researchers who came to talk to you?”

“No, I haven’t told anyone else because I only started to feel it more clearly a few days ago. Those researchers, who are very fond of asking a lot of questions, haven’t visited recently, so I didn’t get a chance to talk about it with anyone.”

“Then please mention it to them if they come to visit. I’ll keep your warning in mind. See you later, Mr. Acacia. I’ll come and visit again after we return.”

After saying goodbye to Mr. Acacia, Luciel drove back to their villa while still thinking about Mr. Acacia’s warning.

In the novel, there was no direct mention of the west being more dangerous than other places. Treyton had gone to different regions, and Luciel didn’t remember all the details, but he did recall a few places being mentioned that were located in the west.

So, it seemed that he had to review the maps later to try and see if there was really something wrong in the west direction.

However, he wasn’t sure if he could really get any data out of it, because throughout the novel he read, Treyton and the others had run into all sorts of trouble everywhere.

Still, he was only willing to go that far—even though he was also curious—because he didn’t plan to go west at all.

His strength wasn’t that high yet, so going into overly dangerous places was completely off his list for now.

When he got back to the villa, Treyton still wasn’t back, so he just returned to their room and went into their shared space.

He took out the maps they had collected and started checking the names of the different places he remembered being mentioned in the novel.

Treyton and the others had gone to a lot of places, and Luciel didn’t remember all of them, but at least he still recalled many. And because the number of locations was quite large, it took him almost three hours to finally mark all the places he could remember.

After marking the places, he began summarizing what happened in those areas based on what he remembered. Eventually, he noticed that there was indeed a pattern: by going westward, Treyton and the others had actually experienced more dangerous events, especially when they traveled far west beyond their country a few years later.

If he hadn’t received Mr. Acacia’s warning, he probably wouldn’t have paid much attention to it, since many other areas were also dangerous. But after carefully reviewing and summarizing the data in his mind, he realized there was indeed a consistent problem when going west.

Well, now he had confirmed that something was wrong in the west direction. Unfortunately, he couldn’t tell the others about it, since his source of information was from future events that hadn’t happened yet, so it’s still unreliable.

Still, as long as the base became aware of the abnormalities eventually, they would probably start searching for clues on their own. So even if it took a bit more time due to the distance, they would likely gather enough information later on.

After he finished thinking about it, Luciel burned the maps he had marked, then exited their shared space and started playing a game on his phone.

He hadn’t played for the past few days, so his character in the game had also been stagnant and hadn’t improved at all.

Luciel kept tapping away on his phone until Treyton came back about an hour later.

“So, why did Mr. Clark invite us?” Luciel asked, eyes still on his screen.

“He said he just wanted to meet the two of us,” Treyton replied while removing his jacket.

“Heh, really?”

“Of course, that was the reason he gave, but it seemed like he actually wanted to know if there were any other secrets behind strengthening superpowers, since ours are considered to be many times stronger than others.

He was especially interested in your ability because it’s already very powerful and can cover large areas with sturdy vines. As for me, he was curious about how I ended up with two abilities. After all, I’m still the only one in the base with a dual ability.”

“Tsk. If they’re so interested in things like that, they should’ve asked more politely.”

“Yeah, well, it was also obvious that they wanted to poach you into joining their team.

But Mr. Clark already figured out you wouldn’t be easy to sway, so he didn’t try to directly invite you. Still, he did try to get more information about you through me.

He also apologized for what happened earlier and said that his usual personal bodyguards were dispatched elsewhere, so he had to send a temporary one to invite us.”
