Wilbur looked up at the endless forest. He wanted to walk through the forest and reach the immortal realm. However, since someone noticed him and he needed to know more about Vicente Primeval Forest, he decided to ept their invitation.
"Alright. I''m honored to join your exploration team."
Wilbur reached his hand out to shake hands with Mitch. Mitch looked back at his explore crew and smiled. He shook hands with Wilbur and said, "Wee to our exploration team, young man. By the way, I''m Mitch. You can call me Captain Mitch. Also, what''s your name?"
"I''m Wilbur Penn."
"So, your name is Wilbur Penn. Hello, Wilbur. It''s nice to meet you."
"Thanks for looking out for me, Captain Mitch."
Mitch smiled and said, "Oh, of course, but there''s one condition."
"Condition?" Wilbur looked at Mitch puzzlingly. Mitch looked nonchnt at that moment. He nodded and replied, "That''s right, there''s one condition. You see, we have eight people here. We hope that you can drive us back when we return."
"I''m afraid we can''t fit eight people in one car."
"You can drive twice. I don''t care what you do, I just hope you can send us back to Vicente safely."
"Alright, I ept your condition."
Wilbur nodded, then he looked back at his car. Wilbur finally realized Mitch''s intentions at that moment. Mitch noticed that he drove alone, so he wanted his help to get them back to Vicente''s city area.
It was normal to get some benefits if they were not friends, so Wilbur did not think Mitch was doing anything wrong. On the contrary, Wilbur let his guard down because Mitch did not hide his true intention.
Wilbur said, "But we just got here, and we''ll be going into the forestter. We won''t know when we''lle out. It could be in the afternoon, or maybe tomorrow. Have you considered that, Captain Mitch?"
"Hah!" Mitchughed suddenly. He turned to look at his team and asked, "Did you hear that? This young man thought the exploration wouldst until tomorrow. Do you want us to stay overnight in the forest or something? You''re too naive."
"What''s wrong with that?"
Mitch shook his head and replied, "As an ordinary explorer, it''s normal that you''re curious. I was just like you back then, filled with curiosity. It''s how I became an explorer. However, there''s something I did better than you. At least I did my research before trying to explore Vicente Primeval Forest. I know that the exploration teams could only venture ten kilometers into the forest so far. Ten kilometers is roughly a two-hour journey for us explorers, so that would only make it a four-hour trip in total. If we are capable and lucky enough to venture ten kilometers in, we may return to Vicente by noon. Wilbur, you need to know that ten kilometers is the furthest record thus far. It''s a record left by the best explorers. We''re only ordinary people. It''s almost impossible for us to beat that record."
