The items required for the Apprentice Mercenary Exam were the horn of a Unicorn Iron Rhinoceros and a unique stone found only in the Lightning World—the Wind Horn Stone. The Unicorn Iron Rhinoceros's horn had already been taken care of. All that remained was the Wind Horn Stone.

They set out, their battle boots treading upon the land of the Longsuo Mountains as time passed amid their journey.

Excluding the two days spent traveling from the Death Desert to Demon Moon Lake and the eleven days spent waiting for the Unicorn Iron Rhinoceros, they had already traveled toward Wind Thunder Canyon for thirty-four days. They had exceeded the expected thirty days, yet nearly 8,000 kilometers still remained before their destination.
But there was nothing they could do about it.
