Bab 213: 213: Danger of the Red Zone, Luther

David's expression turned serious as he leaned back. "The Silica Valley... a red zone. The mortality rate there is unforgiving. We've lost hundreds of scouts, even a Tier 7 Destiny, to its dangers."

Caleb absorbed David's words, his eyes narrowing in thought. The conversation shifted to the significance of green, yellow, and red zones, each denoting varying levels of danger and peril.

As David concluded his explanation, Caleb's gaze hardened with resolve. "I appreciate the heads up, David. I'll tread carefully. After all, the end goal is worth the risk. Once I have these ingredients, there'll be no turning back. I'll ascend to Tier 7 and face whatever abominations are in there."

"Luther," David began, his voice tinged with a mix of awe and concern. "He's a Tier 5 who managed to survive the Silica Valley. It's quite a feat, considering the mortality rate there."
