2049 Journey to the East I

"I will worry about Kenos at another time. I have a more important concern that him molting. Can you inspect, Wisteria?" Adrian stated as he called Wisteria over for Old Man Pann to check.

"There seems to be nothing wrong with her. She is perfect health according to my check up." Old Man Pann replied as he has the ability to check on the life status of monsters.

"It is good that she is fine but that is not the reason why I am asking you to check her. Do you know of a way to make her stronger? Evolution of an Arboreal Dragon Turtle." Adrian stated.

"Even I do not know how to make her evolve because it is also a first for me to learn of the Arboreal Dragon Turtle when you grew her from the ground. Monsters that grow from the ground are often considered as herbs, but she is more monster than herb." Old Man Pann stated.

"So, do you not know anything or may be a clue that might be a lead?" Adrian asked.

"While I do not know of Arboreal Dragon Turtles, I do know of Dragon Turtles as they are beings with dragon blood. Dragon Turtles are mythical monsters in the Eastern Continent, and they mostly live there or further in the southern continent. You might have a better chance of getting information there since you have acquaintances there. Of course, even I do not know if that would be helpful." Old Man Pann stated.

"The eastern continent is not very peaceful right now. I could not summon the Vermillion Bird due to the conflicts happening there. A lot of powerful monsters have gone rampant there due to the expansion of land. Anyway, thank you for the advice, old man. You are really helpful at times." Adrian stated.

"What do you mean 'at times'?! Maybe I should also knock your head at times to make it think straight." Old Man Pann stated as he lifted his hands, but Adrian ran away like a little kid avoiding punishment.

A small, entertained smile could be seen on the face of Old Man Pann before it returned to his resting mean face. Adrian also smiled like a kid while he ran away as if this was their way of bonding. He immediately looked for Peridot to ask about the eastern continent as she was the best source of information for it. She might not know about the dragon turtles, but she would know the state of the eastern continent.

"I do know of the Dragon Turtles as they are a relative of the eastern dragons way back." Peridot stated which came as a surprise to Adrian.

"Then do you know where to find them?" Adrian asked.

"I only know that they exist but even I do not know where they are currently. I think my master would know where to find them, but the divine beasts should also have an idea where they might be. The only problem is that the entire eastern continent is in turmoil. A lot of hidden factions suddenly appeared because the land expanded by a lot." Peridot stated.

"Is it possible to go to you mountain abode to ask your master?" Adrian asked Peridot.

"Not really. It is impossible to do that right now. You have better chance of asking the divine beasts." Peridot stated as her face looked somewhat complicated.

"Is there something that you want to share?" Adrian asked.

"Nothing… I want to help you, but I am also in a mission now. I thought I could get the thing I need from defeating the Leviathan, but it did not appear. I am sorry that I cannot help you this time." Peridot stated with a heavy heart.

"No worries as I can talk to the Vermillion Bird for the information I need. If you need help for your quest, then I can postpone what I need to do now to help you." Adrian stated as he offered to help Peridot as she seems to be troubled.

"I am thankful for the offer, but I can manage it on my own. Be careful when you go to the eastern continent as there are a lot of vagabonds roaming about. Then again, they should be careful of you instead." Peridot stated with a smile, but Adrian could tell that she was not entirely honest with him.

Adrian wanted to ask for what is troubling Peridot, but she suddenly said that she needed to go. Seeing that she does not need his help, Adrian can only believe and trust that Peridot could resolve her problems. He is not one to pry the mouths of his friends if they do not want to tell him. He should patiently wait for her to open up and support her once she needs help.

"I need to go to the eastern continent again. I guess the first place would be Vermillion City where the Vermillion Bird is located." Adrian stated as he tried to teleport, but a powerful force suddenly blocked him.

"There was great spatial interference! This means that something must be happening to Vermillion City right now!" Adrian exclaimed as he tried to adjust the coordinates.

The Vermillion Bird told Adrian that a powerful spatial interference barrier would be used when the city was under attack. Adrian thought that he could pierce through this barrier because he is a friend of the Vermillion Bird, but he was wrong. In order to create a barrier that is without fault, the Vermillion Bird made sure to have it affect even allied or friendly beings.

Adrian believed that Vermillion City might just be in high alert as there are no news in the forums. There were some small skirmishes that happened which might have prompted the use of the spatial interference barrier. Adrian can force his way through the barrier, but he might make it collapse. He will only do more harm than good if he tries to enter Vermillion City.
