The Author's POV
Chapter 25
-Blaaargh!
As soon as I regained my senses, I felt my stomach churning and before I knew it I was on the ground barfing.
Fortunately, I didn't puke on my mask as I slightly tilted it upwards to allow the barf to escape from my mouth.
"First timer huh?"
Looking at me, who was on the ground barfing, the middle-aged man shook his head amusingly.
It took me a total of five minutes before I was finally able to stop my body from barfing.
I felt like crap.
After having vomited so much, I could barely stand up.
"Sit down for a bit"
Leaning against a nearby rock, the middle-aged man held a new cigarette between his fingers and exhaled smoke in the air.
It was only after I heard his voice that I managed to get a clear look at my surroundings.
A vast plain field filled with oak trees was before my sight and if one looked ahead, towering mountains that penetrated the clouds could be seen.
The air felt extremely fresh and it reminded me of the time when I was in Clayton ridge.
Looking around, I could see a massive warp gate behind me. Five white-clothed individuals patrolled around it.
I wonder how they managed to hide such a huge thing...
"You're probably wondering how we can hide the gate from the government's sight"
Taken aback, I looked at the middle-aged man.
How did he know?
Blankly staring at the sky where the clouds were slowly darkening, showing signs of rain, the middle-aged man spoke.
"There's a barrier that covers a 5km radius of everything here."
"The barrier prevents the energy coming out from the dungeon from being leaked, and it also blocks electromagnetic waves preventing any radio communications or detection devices from finding this place."
Listening to him, I silently nodded.
This was a smart choice.
If the government were to find about this dungeon, they would swiftly take it over.
No matter how strong the black market was, they wouldn't be able to fight against both the government and the union.
Since dungeons, monsters, and demons fell under the union's jurisdiction, if an unclaimed gate was discovered, the union would do anything within its power to claim it. And since the black market was not as strong as the union, they could only resort to hiding dungeons that they found.
But I was curious.
Couldn't the union just send spies and find the location of the dungeon?
"ku ku, your expression is so easy to read kid."
"It's not so easy for spies to find the location of the dungeons."
"In the first place, the reason why we use warp gates is so that they can't find where the dungeon is. Moreover, with the barrier, which prevents any communication to the external world, it's almost impossible for them to find this place"
That does make sense, but a barrier alone was not enough to prevent the union from discovering this place.
Actually, before that, was my expression that easy to read? It was fine if only Grandmaster Keiki could read my thoughts...but now another person, whom I just met, could easily read what I wanted to say―was my face that easy to read?
Moreover, I was currently wearing a mask. Apart from my eyes, everything else was covered. Does that mean he could read my expression solely based on me eyes?
I need to make a mental note to myself to start practicing my poker face...
Looking at my surroundings, I thought for a bit before saying out loud.
"If it were me, I would just look at the surrounding geology and narrow it down to possible locations"
With the technology of this world, it wouldn't be too hard to narrow places down according to the details of the surroundings.
"Huhu, you're a smart one eh?"
Laughing at my comment, the middle-aged man stood up.
