Base of Operations
Over the next few days, the trio strove to create a proper operating base. With Tim discreetly using his Innate Luck Skill to help them find a Naequat-rich natural haven, finding a safe and conveniently located place to operate had been a breeze. By daybreak after a few hours of walking, their new base had been established.
It was a clearing comparable to the ones Tim had discovered earlier, but it was larger, about the size of a basketball court and located slightly higher up on a hillside. It was an ideal hideout and was also concealed by huge trees whose foliage shielded them from aerial predators.
Tim had been quite bitter to discover this place so late. Because if he had found this refuge earlier, he would never have ended up in such a predicament. As for Jake and Sarah, they had not been impressed at all, even complaining about the lack of sunshine.
