His eyes narrowed as he went over the details of the mission and the monsters in his mind.

"It's extremely suspicious!" A few moments later, he found some suspicious parts to the event till now.

Firstly, the monsters were too powerful for their race, almost as if they found a treasure trove of evolution materials, as consuming them was the only way for multiple monsters patrolling the woods to break through the limits of their potential.

Secondly, why had the monsters appeared in the woods from the beast's forest? Was it simply because they were attracted to the scent of flesh and blood belonging to humanoid beings or because there was something in the woods that attracted them to this place.

"Hmm," Vincent's eyes glistened in a calculative light as he finally concluded, "There's a high chance that there's something in the woods that is extremely attractive to the Grim Gore, and it helps them become more powerful than what their limits ordained. Furthermore, it is present in abundance for sure, or else mere patrolmen wouldn't be so strong. I'm certain they had consumed a part of the evolution material to become strong. An evolution material that can help Grim Gore evolve, it must be something precious related to darkness and negativity! What do you think, Blood?"

''There's a high chance for there to be a rare evolution material near the place occupied by the monsters. It has to be a unique evolution material as the grim gore can only become powerful from absorbing negative and dark energy."

Blood's voice sounded in his ears, confirming his own words.

Vincent's eyes brightened in glee. Extraordinary evolution materials weren't easy to come by. Otherwise, humanoid beings wouldn't be using spatial tunnels to go to mystical worlds in search of unique evolution material. Yet, there existed a chance for him to obtain an extraordinary evolution material.

"I should try to find the rest of the monster. The evolution material might very well be in that place occupied by them." Vincent thought before he looked at the ground with a scrutinizing gaze, and immediately he noticed footsteps reaching deeper inside the woods.

"Footsteps? These traces might lead to their lair."

Vincent sends a pair of his eyes to follow the path taken by the footsteps and report what they find on the other end.

A while later, the image of more than a dozen monsters sitting below a cliff and near a stream popped into his mind.

"I should notify the rest of the group about my findings." He wasn't greedy and stupid enough to think that he will be able to take down more than ten monsters all alone and obtain the extraordinary evolution material all alone.

Vincent snapped his fingers, causing the magic resonating eye taken away by the party of three to brighten up in blue, flickering continuously.

Somewhere far away from him, Leila, Peter, and Varth were walking on the grassy ground when suddenly, the eyeball in her leather pouch released a blue light and vibrated furiously.

At the same time, the pouch hanging from her shoulder glows in blue and trembles subtly.

"I've received a signal from Vincent informing us that he has found the monster we are looking for and that we should group up," Leila said as she unbuttoned her pouch.

The blue eyeball hovered out of her pouch and started to drift with the wind, heading towards the northwest side of the forest with incredible speed.

"Let's go then," Peter said as he saw the eyeball leading the way to their destination.

Leila ran into the forest, following after the eyeball with her twin brother trailing closely behind her, while Varth silently followed after them, a distance of several feet between them.

"Go and look for the bandits," Varth muttered a command under his breath as several black spiders made out of metal crawled from under the black cloak draped over his body and jumped out to the trees and the grounds, scattering in different directions in search of the bandits terrifying the wilderness around Leslie.

While they were approaching Vincent, he stored the body of the monsters in his spatial ring as he wanted to purify their blood and drink it to squeeze out as much benefit from them as he could, and their eyes, fangs, and claws could be sold for a good price, and there might be a beast core in their body which sells for a hefty price too.

However, he will only know that after dismembering them.

Several minutes later, once they regrouped, Vincent explained everything that happened till now and the conclusion he came upon to the three of them.

"So, you are saying there's a high possibility of there being an extraordinary evolution material in the lair of the monsters?" Varth asked as he looked at him, a smile forming behind his face.

"Yes," Vincent replied.

"Why didn't you wait for us before fighting the three monsters?" Leila questioned as she looked at Vincent with worry in her eyes. "You could have gotten hurt."

He patted her head, and said, "Well, I was sure that the three monsters were merely out patrolling the woods and that the rest of the monsters somewhere else. Furthermore, they were weak and easy to kill. I decided to kill them by myself rather than alert you guys to come here and take care of them with me as I had thought that it did be a waste of time."

"Next time, let's fight together," Leila said, accepting his pats with eyes squinted in pleasure.

"We are in this together, alright," Peter said as he extended his fist towards Vincent.

"No doubt about it," Vincent said as he balled his hand into a fist and touched his fist.

Immediately after, he said, "I have found the location of the rest of the monsters."

"Where is it?"

Vincent pointed at the footsteps and continued, "It's right down this path. We just need to follow in the footsteps of the monsters I killed, and we will reach the rest of them."

"What are we waiting for?" Varth said as he looked at them, his right eye showing eagerness.

"Let's go right away."

As soon as Vincent said those words, they ran into the forest following the direction of the footsteps closely.

After several minutes of delving deeper into the forest and taking a lot of twists and turns, they reached near the cliff where more than a dozen blue-bodied monsters with black barriers could be seen sitting in the dark.
