Chapter 837 Nokisi Point (1)

It took little for Erik and June to arrive at Nokisi point. The journey had been safe as June used his Wyvern’s form to travel unhindered.

Even the other wyverns near the Eldraith Mountain range steered clear.

Of course, as much as the other Thaids did, the sight of such a colossal creature soaring through the skies sent waves of fear through the human populations.

Whispers turned into shouts as the enormous beast was spotted, and soon, tales of the sighting spread like wildfire.

Many guilds, mobilized to track down the mythical beast, were sent to at least find it, but Erik suspected the real reason was to try using the new brain crystal weapons to test them against its legendary hide.

Usually, Wyverns flocked together. To see one alone was a rare sight, and they didn’t want to waste this chance to kill it.

Aware of the growing attention, Erik and June made a swift retreat into the cover of the forest, where June reverted to a form less conspicuous and daunting.

The dense foliage of the forest provided them with the perfect cover, allowing them to continue their journey undetected.

Their path led them ever closer to their destination, and after traversing the forest’s hidden trails, they finally arrived at Nokisi Point.

Standing before them was a sight to behold. Nokisi Point loomed large, its massive walls stretching skywards.

They were the biggest Erik and June had ever seen, and it was also protected by a gigantic barrier.

“Impressive.” There were no other words to describe those walls. After he saw the colossal bird kill the black wyvern, nothing surprised him anymore.

The atmosphere in this region felt distinctly more tranquil and secure, compared to Caelora City and Testrovsc’s Rest. Here, there was no lingering fear of Thaids hiding just out of sight.

Even the vegetation around Nokisi Point thrived, an oasis of life amidst the danger and desolation that plagued the lands beyond.

“This is very weird,” June said. Just like Erik, he had never seen a place as safe as this one.

Even New Alexandria could not compare to the sense of safety this place held. “It’s likely thanks to them.” Erik pointed at some guards, clearly sporting the band of giants’ insignia.

This sanctuary clearly owed its peace to the Band of Giants. The tales of their deeds were legend, and as Erik and June had witnessed firsthand, the land for several kilometers around Nokisi Point bore testament to their effectiveness.

Not a single Thaid had crossed their path several kilometers away from the city, a rare occurrence in a world where danger was a constant companion.

Erik and June paused at the threshold of Nokisi Point, taking a moment to absorb the significance of their arrival. f𝗿𝐞ewebno𝚟𝗹.𝗰𝐨m

“What do we do?” June asked. “I’ll turn into a fly,” Erik said. I don’t want to make things complex by faking a new identity and talking to people. ”

“But what about me?”

“You turn into a bird. It won’t be hard entering.”

“Are you sure about this?” June asked. “I am. It will be hard to spot you, even less to catch you.”

“If you say so, Master.”

In a secluded spot, shielded by the dense foliage of a large tree, they carefully removed their belongings.

They stripped off their clothes and gear, folding them neatly and placing them alongside their backpacks in a hidden nook at the base of a tree.

Once their possessions were securely stowed away, they turned to each other, nodding in silent agreement.

It was time to shapeshift. Erik was the first. His form began to shrink and morph, his body contorting and reshaping until he was no larger than a fly.

June, following suit, underwent a similar transformation, his body condensing and reshaping into the form of a small bird, nimble and unassuming.

They took to the air. As they approached, they could see a column of flying vehicles descending towards Nokisi Point.

The city had two distinct entrances: one for land-based arrivals and another, situated atop the towering walls, for those coming by air.

It was towards this aerial entrance they directed their flight, blending with the flow of traffic.

The aerial entrance was a hub of activity, with vehicles of various designs and sizes landing and taking off.

Amidst this flurry of movement, Erik and June found it easy to weave through the gaps, avoiding detection by the guards.

The sensors blared, but as they saw June’s bird form, they thought nothing of it.

Their small sizes afforded them the ability to navigate through the air currents, slipping past the security measures designed to screen much larger threats.

<We are in, > Erik telepathically said to June.

<Indeed. >

As they crossed the threshold of the city’s walls, the sprawling expanse of Nokisi Point unfolded beneath them.

The city was alive with movement; flying vehicles darted through the skies.

The skyscrapers stretched towards the heavens, their surfaces awash in the glow of neon lights and vibrant advertisements that painted the daylight in a kaleidoscope of colors.

Among these towering giants of glass and steel, digital billboards flickered and flashed, many of them emblazoned with the insignia of the Band of Giants Mercenary Guild, showing how prominent this force was within the city.

In the meantime, they flew through the urban landscape, searching for a place to shapeshift again and find some clothes.

As they flitted between the neon-lit towers, the advertisements caught Erik’s eye, but one in particular halted him in his aerial tracks.

There, displayed on a towering billboard, was the unmistakable visage of the Fierce Lioness.

The mere sight of her was enough to send a jolt through Erik’s memory.

He remembered the day she had come to New Alexandria to kill the Blirdoth. Her arrival had been nothing short of salvation.

<Damn… The fierce lioness is like the messiah here… > June said. It wasn’t the first billboard showing the woman’s face and confident pose.

Erik made the equivalent of a sigh. Not that a fly could sigh.

<Are we going to meet her? > June asked as he looked at the billboard.

<Yes. She is the only one who could help us find that bastard, > Erik said.
