"Ugh, we got to see the giant beast and record the CG, but dying to get back means we can't take any physical samples with us."
"What exactly did we come here for... This was about as productive as me being an academic locust at a conference..."

Yet a small number of exceptionally stubborn scholars remained behind, intending to conduct field research in this high-magic environment.
Most of them were only level eleven or twelve, still far from the extraordinary threshold of LV.20. Without the boost of any Titan Sequence talents, they could only rely on basic class skills to carry out wilderness practicums on this dangerous continent.
"This reminds me of my wilderness survival days."
