The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

After seeing that hiding anymore would be useless, Ben decided to show himself. But he did not get too close to the little girl as he was still worried about what she actually was. This place was still a part of the dangerous Desolate Plains of Gahana and it was impossible for a random little girl to appear here.

So the most probable thing in this situation was that this little girl was not a human but some kind of monster who looked just like a human. And as this girl was also able to easily see through his stealth, there was a high chance that she was also quite powerful. For that reason Ben was still being as cautious as possible in this situation.

After Ben\'s figure suddenly appeared before her out of thin air, the girl widened her eyes in surprise at first and then became happy. It looked like she was only able to sense Ben\'s presence in that area and was not aware of his shape.

Then suddenly that girl started speaking. But fortunately for him, he was unable to understand anything that the little girl was saying. The language she was using was very primitive. Only extremely ancient humans used to speak in this way.

So instead of communicating with the little girl using speech, Ben decided to use various gestures and hand signals. The little girl found this very interesting and tried to learn then. Just like this Ben ended up spending a total of seven days with this little girl.

In these seven days Ben and this little girl had become extremely close, so much so that currently this little girl was riding on his shoulder. Not only that but this little girl was also a genius and had managed to learn the language that Ben was speaking in just this little time. It was truly impressive.

Currently Ben was following this girl\'s instructions to go back close to the huge Huguocite mountain. That was a landmark that this little girl was able to recognise. If Ben could reach that location, he could then trace his way back out of the forest.

Ben had also given a name to his little girl. According to his language, the word "Prucia" meant "Valuable Treasure" and that was exactly the name that Ben had given to this little girl. She also had started calling him uncle Ben.

Ben had told this girl many things about the human world. That was something that Prucia knew nothing about, so she was very excited to learn about it. At the same time, Ben had also come to know about many things about this danger zone and monsters in general, that he himself had no idea about.

Prucia was without a doubt a monster. She might look like a human from the outside but inside, she was completely different. She did not even have a single organ which humans desperately needed to be alive. But at the same time, even though she was supposed to be a terrifying and ferocious monster. In her heart, Prucia was a sweet little girl.

There was another person following behind Ben and Prucia. He also looked like a human but his intelligence was not developed at all and his nature was also closer to that of a monster\'s. Ben had tried to also name him but this little boy looked down on him for some reason and was unwilling to be named by him.

After learning more about the vast world that was outside of this Desolate Plains of Gahana, Prucia wanted to go out to see it. As now Prucia had become like a daughter to Ben, he was more than willing to help her with that. But Ben knew that the monsters of this area were unable to go out. But Prucia had reassured her that she was not affected by that restriction.

Ben was still planning to be more careful. It was not like the monsters would die immediately as soon as they left the desolate plains. They would first feel the lack of Eternal fire and would die slowly if they did not return within the range of the desolate plains. So Ben was planning to keep a close eye on the girl and as soon as he noticed something unusual, he was planning to immediately bring Prucia back inside the danger zone again.

...

Nothing unusual happened when Ben was still in the deepest part of the desolate plains. But as he started to get closer to the outer area, the whole region started to become unstable. Powerful monsters started to target them and overall the whole situation became much dangerous. Even Ben\'s almighty hiding was not useful anymore and the attacking monsters were always able to find his location without any problem.

Ben still tried his best to run away from here and Prucia herself was decently powerful. So even though they all were attacked by a large group of monsters, Ben and the others were still safe for the time being.

But travelling like this in the desolate plains was extremely dangerous. Ben knew that the main reason why he was facing so many problems was most probably Prucia and he had even asked him about it. But Prucia had made a very sad face from which Ben got the message that the situation was more complex than he had expected and for the time being, Prucia was unable to tell him anything more about this situation.

Normally the previous Ben would have just abandoned little Prucia to run away with his life. But during his time with Prucia, Ben had really started to see her as his own daughter. So his mind was unwilling to get rid of this person whom he had accepted to be his only family member in this world.

After thinking about a solution to the problem that they were facing at that time, Ben came up with a plan. He asked Prucia and the little boy who was accompanying her to hide here for some time while, Ben told them that he was planning to go out of the danger zone for some time.

There was a very high chance that Ben might use this situation to run away. But still Prucia decided to believe in him and decided to wait for Ben to come back. Ben did not break her trust and came back to her after about 5 days.

But now he had his beloved Danger Rover with him. Previous time, Ben had not been able to use this here because the monsters were blocking his way. But now without someone as strong as Prucia with her, Ben judged that the danger rover was usable this time and brought it in the Desolate Plains of Gahana.

Now could Ben\'s beloved car be enough to allow them to escape this Desolate Plains of Gahana danger zone ?
