A few hours later, Francis returned bearing good news.
The transmission site survived, but it was close. The footprint of the Titan Demon was only a few meters away from it, which means that it was nearly destroyed. Fortunately, it wasn't, and everything was still functional.
Additionally, he also returned with a full haul.
Using the box Cedric gave him, he captured 5 Dreaming Silkworms, 5 of each: Demon Hogs, Hens, Hares, and Bisons. He captured enough test subjects for Cedric to perform his experiments.
Knowing that Francis left eagerly to fetch the errand, Cedric prepared a holding cell for his experiments. He didn't want to risk the safety of the team for the sake of securing more food; that's why he did it.
