Chapter 988: Into the Forest

Just when the Alchemist clearly understood what actions he should take next,

he proceeded towards his destination with hardly any hesitation.

No matter what he might encounter in the surrounding forest,

he was prepared, at this moment, to accept everything that was actually appearing before his eyes.

Stored in his coat pocket were the tools he had prepared beforehand, along with a special sachet for warding off magical beasts that he always carried with him.

This allowed him to traverse the forest with little to no effort, actually not easily attacked by beasts that might merely be passing by hastily.

Unless the creature was extremely hungry and had been trailing him for a long time.

If such a situation were to truly arise, even for mercenaries who frequented the forest, it would be rare.

He could also detect the intermediary of his pursuer in time, and then make an appropriate response to the problem afterwards.
