"Uh, the place to get water is in the deepest part of the Panna Forest... Where is this?"

“Go southwest from here to the big forest. The forest is like a natural maze. It takes a long time to reach even the deepest part.”

“The location itself is not too far away, and one day is enough to go back and forth.”

Courtney and Alicia answered Xu Zhen's questions one after another. At this time, Xu Zhen found a piece of information that caught his attention.

"It says 'F-Class Only' here..."

“Ah, that means only people at that level can take on quests. To reach a higher level, you need to complete these limited quests.”

"That is to say, if I complete this task, I can be officially promoted to E-level?"

“That’s what I mean.”

Courtney nodded in agreement, and then Alicia asked in confusion, "By the way, when upgrading from G-rank, isn't there a description of limited tasks?"

"I don't recall taking on a mission like this... could it be that?"

Xu Zhen recalled that after completing the task for the first time, the receptionist introduced two tasks.

Both tasks had already met the completion conditions, so he accepted them on the spot and immediately submitted the necessary materials to complete the task. One of them was the limited task itself.

Xu Zhen explained the matter and both of them seemed to understand.

"Well, if that's the case, I can accept that."

"really……"

Alicia and Courtney smiled bitterly. Xu Zhen browsed through the summary of the limited task again, then closed the illustration and looked at Lati and the others.

"Okay, then let's take on this mission early tomorrow morning."

"learn!"

After Lati's answer, Slakic and Lopul also rushed towards Xu Zhen with a smile. It seemed that they were all looking forward to this long-awaited mission.

Considering that he hadn't taken any missions in the guild for several months, Xu Zhen thought that this was a good opportunity to test their strength.

Although during the journey to the capital of Sforia, there were opportunities for Lati and the others to fight wild monsters, and sometimes they had special training, with Xu Zhen and the monsters fighting alone, but there was always Alicia supporting them from behind, which gave them a sense of security.

In fact, there are few opportunities to leave town without Alicia and Courtney, so Xu Zhen thinks that this opportunity should not be missed.

"Because it is a limited mission, we can't go together, but we will pray for your success."

"I think Xu Zhen and the others should be fine."

"Well, thank you."

With the encouragement of Courtney and Alicia, Xu Zhen and the monsters strengthened their fighting spirit for the upcoming limited mission.

------------------

The next morning, Xu Zhen and the monsters got up at dawn and went to the guild.

They accepted the F-level limited mission and were told that they had to complete it within three days. The receptionist also praised their courage. The other adventurers were busy choosing their own missions and did not notice Xu Zhen and his friends.

Therefore, Xu Zhen and his friends left the guild happily without any interference.

Starting from the west gate and following the road, they arrived at the fork in the road that led to the Elf Village in the west and the Pannar Forest in the south.

“That’s the elf village over there.”

“It’s really exciting to go there one day.”

After taking a look towards the west, Xu Zhen and his companions headed south, occasionally encountering some wild monsters on the way.

There are green slimes, large green bears, and eagle-shaped monsters with red bean-colored feathers. These are monsters commonly seen around the capital of Sforia, and are called green slimes, forest bears, and killer eagles.

These names seem to have been randomly chosen by someone for ease of understanding and have since become generally accepted, with their detailed origins still unknown.

“Haaaaaaaa——!”

Lati, who had transformed into an adult, attacked with his magical fists and kicks. His amazing attack power caused the forest bear to fall down quickly.

The moment Lati showed her transformation made her opponent hesitate, which became a huge opportunity, easily leading Lati to a complete victory. Next to her, a group of green slimes rushed towards Slakic to attack.

Since the attack was too monotonous, the battle could have been resolved with just one fire breath, but Slakic insisted on fighting head-on. As a result, he successfully knocked his opponent away and won the victory with his strength.

According to Lati's translation, as a member of the same slime, it could not stand the fact that it obeyed humans. Later, Xu Zhen heard about this and smiled bitterly, thinking that perhaps it was helpless to be regarded like this.

The remaining killer eagles will be dealt with by Xu Zhen and Luo Puer...

“Goooo——!?”

Using its sharp beak as a weapon, the killer eagle swooped down from the sky and faced Loppel's reinforced defense head-on, resulting in its beak being perfectly bent.

For a moment, the killer eagle didn't understand what was happening. Then the severe pain made it so painful that it screamed in pain and flew around, and finally locked onto Xu Zhen and the others as its target again. The opponent had completely lost his mind due to pain and anger.

"Well!"

Xu Zhen quickly jumped to the side to avoid the charge of the killer eagle. Just as Lopul was about to activate the defense reinforcement again, a plan flashed through Xu Zhen's mind.

"Lopul, deliberately delayed the start!"

“Wow!?”

Looking at Xu Zhen in surprise, Loper realized something from his serious expression. The Killer Eagle soared again and then descended rapidly. Following the instructions, Loper was a beat late in applying defensive reinforcement to Xu Zhen.

Lati and Slakic were puzzled. If they had to defend anyway, why did they deliberately delay the attack?

But Xu Zhen’s purpose was not defense.

"bring it on!"

Xu Zhen suddenly rushed towards Killer Eagle and punched the opponent's face with his right fist, which had been strengthened with defense. The fist hit directly, and Killer Eagle fell to the ground and remained motionless.

Lati, Slakic and even Lopul were all shocked by Xu Zhen's actions. Xu Zhen, on the other hand, looked at his fist and the fallen killer eagle with a very happy smile.

“Okay, it worked!”

"What the hell is going on!?"

Xu Zhen took a victory pose, and Lati immediately screamed. Slakic still had his mouth wide open. Even Lopur, who had applied defensive reinforcements, tightly grasped Xu Zhen's shoulders and widened his eyes.

Xu Zhen ignored the monsters' surprise and smiled with satisfaction: "I have been thinking about how to use Lopur's defense enhancement on my attack."

Xu Zhen stroked Lopur's head and continued, "The duration of the enhancement has also become longer, and the movements are more exaggerated than before, and the sudden end of the effect has also decreased, right? So I wanted to give it a try, and it turned out to be a great success, Lopur!"

"Woo!"
