28. Big Gathering

"We're here."

"It's so big!"

XiaoYu thought the oasis would just be a pond about the size of a basketball court with a few small trees growing around it. In reality, not only was the imagined pond bigger by several times, it wasn't just surrounded by a few lonely trees. There were at least a hundred trees or bushes scattered around it. While it wasn't as dense as a forest, it was filled with greenery.

This was one of the larger oases found to-date. The further into the desert one went, the smaller they were. However, it cannot be said for sure there weren't any of these little spots of heaven in the deepest parts of the desert.

After finding a shady tree, the two sat down to cool themselves off.

The tiny cat could finally be free from the large cape. It stretched, jumped and frolicked to its heart's content. But there was only so much shade under the tree. The little one was black enough as it is and it didn't want to sunbathe, so its play area was often the space around XiaoYu's knees and HereticKing's lap which was just a jump away. After some rolling and squirming, it'd then climb onto HereticKing's shoulder to pounce into XiaoYu's lap and start begging and showed off its cuteness - water, please.

"If on the Peco Peco, head south from here for 30 minutes and you'll be at the Pyramids." What HereticKing meant was if XiaoYu went grinding in the Pyramids in the future, the nearest water source would be this oasis.

"Mn. Got it." XiaoYu silently marked down the spot. Once he reached Level 60, it'd be about time for him to start camping here.

"Do you have any friends who want to join in the quest?" While HereticKing had a list of potential candidates, he didn't forget this quest was found by LuckyCat. Out of respect, the other should have the first pick.

"Any level requirements?" At once, XiaoYu thought of CopperPlate and NonMeta. A glance at the Friends tab told him they were online.

"The higher the better." Otherwise, his healer would suffer.

"I'll ask."

"CopperPlate, what's your level?" XiaoYu asked.

"Huh? Lil Lucky? 85. What is it?" CopperPlate replied.

Since CopperPlate was Level 85, NonMeta should be about the same.

"Are Level 85 tank Knight and katar Assassin okay?" XiaoYu asked back in the normal chat channel.

"They're good." HereticKing didn't think LuckyCat's friends would have such high levels. It looked like I_Am_A_Poor_Man didn't have to work his ass off.

"Achoo! Who's talking about me behind my back?" I_Am_A_Poor_Man grumbled as he organised all the information found on the desert region.

"CopperPlate, are you and NonMeta free? I found an S-ranked quest in the desert," XiaoYu messaged.

"S rank! Yes! Yes, of course!" CopperPlate was ecstatic. "Eh? You're in the desert too?"

"I was Peco Peco hunting just now. You're here too?"

"We're grinding for mummy drops in the Pyramids with Chrysanthemum. Wait. Can you catch that bird alone?" CopperPlate asked.
