Chapter 557: Entering Linscht and Meeting Eric

As they made their way towards Linscht, the group discussed their plan of action. Lyle emphasized the need for caution and stealth, considering the elusive nature of the Purple Core monster they were likely to encounter. Nicholas suggested they split into smaller groups to cover more ground and gather information discreetly.

The city lord had already sent a letter ahead of them to notify the town officials that they were coming and that they were working with them, making things much more convenient for Lyle and his group.

Upon arriving at the town, they were greeted by a somber atmosphere. The townspeople seemed fearful and on edge, and the streets were quiet and deserted. They headed towards the town center, where they hoped to find Captain Henrik or the Titled Mage, Eric, to gather information about the recent incidents.
