    The Ministry of Environment and Ecology strongly suspects that the cause for all the environmental and ecological changes lies at the core of the Serevian teau based on the triangtion of seismic radiation, and extrapting from the measurements of the intensity of changes across the entire region.


    That was where Rui came in. The core of the Serevian teau was too dangerous to even grade-nine Martial Apprentices. Only grade-ten Martial Apprentices were capable ofpleting the missions. Furthermore, the number of grade-ten Martial Apprentices who had mastered something like Seismic Mapping was extremely low. However, that wasn''t the only reason Rui was ideal for the mission.


    "Fauna Flow must have been a deciding factor as well," Rui murmured.


    Fauna Flow allowed him tomunicate with fauna species. The effectivity of which depended on the intelligence of the creature, in particr, he was trying to converse with using the technique. This technique likely yed a role in his suitability for the mission. Being able to gather information from the fauna creatures in the Serevian teau likely increased hispatibility with the mission.


    The actual objective of the mission was primarily to gather information about the phenomenon responsible for the change. To detect, observe, and rigorously document said phenomenon and potentially eliminate the target if needed.


    The Martial Union and the Ministry of Environment and Ecology provided him with the devices he would need in order to document the phenomenon with the required rigor that the Ministry of Environment and Ecology needed. He would need to operate the surveince technology after he reached the core of the Serevian teau.


    The mission bill specified that he was required to memorize the protocols as well as the means by which the surveince and recording device provided to him was operated. He quickly inputted the data into his mind pce before quickly absorbing all the data on the functioning of the device.


    "Interesting," Rui remarked.


    This wasn''t the first time a hunter-ss mission required him to make use of surveince technology to document his findings so that they could be referenced once the mission concluded. In fact, his very first hunter-ss mission two years ago with the earthen basilisk required him to make use of simr surveince technology.


    Of course, the surveince device that he would be required to use in this mission was much more capable than the surveince device he had used back then. The surveince device back then was no more than a head cam that took basic photographic evidence of what needed to be documented. Back then, the Ministry of Environment and Ecology only wanted to figure out the identity of the earthen basilisk that had been wreaking havoc across the Shaia ins.


    This time, it wanted to know the cause of a set of high abrupt andplex ecological and environmental changes to the Serevian teau.


    This meant that Rui''s job would also be considerably moreplex. He had already confirmed that the operation of the surveince device was not simple and it would require much more than just straightforwardly pushing a button.


    Still, he had memorized the protocols perfectly and it wouldn''t be a problem for him.


    The secondary objective of getting rid of the cause of the environmental and ecological changes wasn''t absolute. The Ministry of Environment and Ecology would inform him of whether it even had to be fulfilled or not.<novelnext>  </novelnext>


    This was different from the attitude they took during the earthen basilisk mission where the elimination of the cause was non-negotiable and the only thing in question was whether Rui was qualified to undertake that mission.


    However, here, there wasn''t necessarily as much of an imperative. For one, the Serevian teau was far outside the Kandrian Empire. Therge geographical distinction between the locations of the two meant that it was extremely unlikely that the events urring within the Serevian teau could ever affect the Kandrian Empire.


    This was quite different from the situation of the Shaia ins which was inside the Kandrian Empire. The Ministry of Environment and Ecology kept a tight leash over the environment and ecological state of the uninhabited natural habitats within the Kandrian Empire.


    Inparison, the situation with the Serevian teau was more due to the professional interest that the Ministry of Environment and Ecology held.


    (''No, not entirely.'') Rui shook his head. (''Although the probability of the Kandrian Empire being affected by the events of the Serevian teau, it''s still not impossible. The earthen basilisk was originally from the Beast Domain. Yet, it migrated a gigantic distance and became a big problem, almost catastrophic.'')


    He hadn''t ever heard back from the Ministry on whether the earthen basilisk hatchlings had been sessfully contained by the subterranean Martial Artists that had been gathered to hunt and exterminate all of them. However, considering there wasn''t an epidemic of earthen basilisks in the Kandrian Empire, he could be rtively assured they had soundly seeded.


    He wasn''t surprised of course; the operation was allegedly led by Martial Squires. He knew first-hand how strong Martial Squires were. Those earthen basilisk brats never stood a chance.


    However, the earthen basilisks had allegedly migrated due to being too weak to survive in the Beast Domain. Whatever was affecting the Serevian teau was clearly not weak. If whatever was causing it, being it living or non-living, were to affect the Kandrian Empire, the results would not be pretty. It was quite likely that Martial Artists from Realms even above the Squire Realm may need to be involved.


    Rui shook his head, dispelling his pointless spections. "The mission was to bemenced immediately. So I guess they won''t have a problem if I travel there immediately."


    The journey would take a while, even for him. "I''m going to need several potions."


    He paused at his own words. "Speaking of which, I''ll need to start paying for all of them starting with this mission."


    He sighed. Potions weren''t cheap and he was going to need more than a few when entering the Beast Domain. He just hoped his umted credit was good enough.
