MAZE - Chapter 1124 - Surprise back up

Hera was really not expecting that Helena was going to show up. And the moment she saw her friend, she couldn't help but give her a big hug.

"What are you doing here?" the Empress asked.

"You want to go through a whole expedition against a bunch of undead and don't expect me to come help you? I'm hurt," Helena chuckled.

"But what about the Wendigo detecting system?" Hera frowned.

"My part in that project is pretty much done. If they can't do any of the final adjustment...

Energy Eater - Chapter 183 - A week of traning

After we defeated that initial group of Eaters, all the Rodenti seemed to be very happy with our presence, no longer thinking that we would just be dead weight for the training group. And they made no effort to pretend that wasn't the case. Still, things started to run more smoothly as we went back to the rest of the group and prepared for the next wave of Eaters.

We stayed here in this area of the valley, spread out across a few kilometers [miles]. If anyone noticed an Eater, there wou...

MAZE - Chapter 1123 - Inside the cave network

Hera and Alex flew across the sky on Nimbus. It took them a couple of hours to reach the village where the Empress first found the Spirits and where the roots that were able to protect people from those Spirits existed.

During the time, the two of them were talking about all the different spells or skills that they might use to face the undead horde. Alex had a myriad of plans and ideas that could work with her Legacy, and the Empress was doing her best to show off her knowledge of necr...

Energy Eater - Chapter 182 - Hunt Start

After hearing Ash's request, we stopped to get some food and left the main village right away. It was a long trip to the Sister Village, and we had no intention of delaying it for longer than it had to be delayed. We reached the Brother Village in the middle of the night, but thankfully, there were a few Rodenti burning the midnight oil. Apparently, that was something that was happening ever since the preparations for the attack started. They had people always ready to send messages one way o...

MAZE - Chapter 1122 - Preparations for the expedition

Despite the fear and worry caused by the sight of a revived guardian beast, the group didn't leave their location during the night and even waited to see if any monsters or undead would approach them. That wasn't the case, as everything was fine aside from the horrifying sight.

Hera was positive that anyone who would come here would be forced to sign a confidentiality agreement or something of the sort, especially once the alliance got to know what was actually happening here. And in al...

Energy Eater - Chapter 181 - Father and Son

We had to stay with Trix a little while longer just so the couple of people that Rex went looking for would arrive. They would be in charge of disposing of the Rampaging Koala's body and make sure that no one was going to eat it by accident. Luckily, that kind of thing was not that unusual, and Trix even had a reputation for being able to identify the new types of food that people could eat or not. In this case, when something big that still had value came along, there were some Rodenti who c...

MAZE - Chapter 1121 - Coiled Serpent at night

Once they agreed that this really was a place for their first attempt at making an outpost, Hera, Bonnie, Allison, and Zephyr prepared some loose layouts for the structures that would be staying here. They didn't go too hard on construction, making only some loose outlines and general ideas of where they could start putting things once this place actually became important for their mission.

There was another benefit on finding this place to rest for the night. The ability to properly pr...

Energy Eater - Chapter 180 - Koala Corpse

As Michael stared at the noseless head of the Rampaging Koala, he froze for a few moments, clearly in shock due to what happened. Only after Astrid and I arrived did he regain some semblance of control over his own body. We helped him get out from underneath the creature and step to the side as Rex waddled in our direction with a big smile. He stared at the Archer, "Come back alive?"

"Way too close for comfort, that one, but we all kept our promises, right?" Michael smiled and looked ar...

MAZE - Chapter 1120 - Find a place

Having four harpies join this scouting mission was a bit worrying at first. Hera wasn't entirely sure if they would be able to keep up with Nimbus and Ruby, or if it was going to be the other way around and they were the ones who were going to be holding everyone back. However, those issues quickly proved to be unimportant.

Harpies were, by their very nature, much lighter than any members of the other species. Not to mention that they were smaller, reaching a meter and a half at the mos...

Energy Eater- Chapter 179 - Come back dead

The Rampaging Koala just continued to chew on its eucalyptus leaf while staring at us, barely showing any recognition. Either the creature was blind and unable to see us, or it could see us and just didn't care about our presence. I stepped to the side, but my foot ended up kicking a rock that caused a loud sound as it tumbled into a small crevice. It echoed with each impact as it fell for several seconds. Yet, the monster didn't seem to care. It continued just chilling in its spot, pausing e...

MAZE - Chapter 1119 - Outpost

After greeting him, Hera followed Vash to meet the rest of the scouts that would be a part of this operation. They were in one of the hotel rooms that Typhera always kept for official business. That could take the form of anything, really. From delegates coming to visit to someone who was trying to make a deal with the harpies, even a friend of hers that was coming by to say hi. There were always a couple of mid-range hotel rooms always booked under the queen's name.

As soon as Hera wal...

Energy Eater - Chapter 178 - Go in Alive

We walked out of the village, following a large tunnel, much larger than even the Rock Fly Tunnel itself, and arrived at the outside world. The entirety of the village was inside the mountain, but the village itself was still on the ground below the desert. Unlike most of the other villages that we had seen so far, this one had no connection to a road or anything that was clearly from the old world.

Even the Brother and the Sister Village were so much closer to anything really. The Sis...

MAZE - Chapter 1118 - Anxious

"You really need to relax a bit," Daskka peeked from Hera's shoulder.

The Empress was pacing back and forth in a meeting room inside Typhera's palace. The Harpy Queen had promised that today was the day when the scouts would arrive. And since they were just one room away from Deakoshara, they could start their journey right now, which was something they would very much need. After all, before reaching the Fields of Elysium, they also needed to find a proper campground in Deakoshara. Onl...

Energy Eater - Chapter 177 - Healer Trix

Trix was someone who spent most of her life dedicated to the arts of healing. She was the first person who anyone in either one of the three villages would want to call the moment they were seriously injured. Yet they knew that they should not call for her if they had minor wounds. After all, the Rodenti healer was always busy trying to come up with new and better ways to treat complicated injuries.

According to Rex, the reason for her almost obsession with healing came from when she wa...

MAZE - Chapter 1117 - Waiting for Scouts

Two days after the revelation that Gwendelan's Legacy caused the undead horde, Hera still could not go back to the Fields of Elysium. She wanted to go there and start trying to figure out a way to stop the undead from being a problem. And the most obvious way of doing so was to kill the king. Although according to history, King Gwendelan should also be undead right now.

This dated back all the way to when she first became an explorer, the moment when she participated in the test prior t...

Energy Eater - Chapter 176 - Retuning Victorious

Getting back to the Brother Village took most of the day. We were very far from it, and now we had the added issue of carrying the body of the Wild Chicken of the Desert. But when we did get there, they were happy to receive us with a warm welcome, some fresh food, and even a couple of baths that they had prepared after we arrived.

They wouldn't bathe every day, but they would all bathe occasionally when they went for more hard work, the type that would make you very dirty. And even wi...

MAZE - Chapter 1116 - Old Wounds

Hera wanted to just grab as much gear and items that she could and head back to the Fields of Elysium. However, the council recommended that she hold on a bit more. That was for two very specific reasons. First, Typhera had called a very good group of scouts to help learn more about the Fields of Elysium themselves. Second, they were giving the alliance a couple of days as a whole to try to find any information about what could be happening in that room.

And while they were waiting, Ale...

Energy Eater - Chapter 175 - Wild Chicken of the Desert

#### Author's Note ####
So I messes up again and the schedule for the Energy Eater chapters was a mess. But we are 12 chapters ahead of the free release. In order to start posting properly again I changed the permissions of the last few chapters just so the number of chapters is correct for each tier. Sorry about the confusion but now things should be moving normally!

"A chicken?" I asked no one specifically.

I don't think there was a singl...

MAZE - Chapter 1115 - Storming a meeting

Hera stormed into the palace. A few of the Harpy guards did try to stop her, but due to her position, they were not willing to use force, especially since she wasn't being outright hostile to anyone. Sure, she was moving with purpose and telling people to get out of her way. But during the entire march, she never once was rude to the people who were only trying to do their jobs. Even when saying move, she would add a sorry or an apology in the mix.

She stormed into the meeting room, tak...

MAZE - Chapter 1114 - Undead Attack

Hera was still very upset with Shane. They might not have talked about the questions the enchantress was going to ask, but she was an explorer, someone whose entire job was to uncover mysteries. How did she not catch on to the details that Hera had already told her? And because of that frustration, they started arguing.

Hera could recognize that she got too moody too quickly, but this was also a tense situation. Whether it was an effect caused by the mana in the environment or just beca...

Energy Eater - Chapter 174 - Bait

The next day we all woke up early, had a healthy breakfast, and headed off to the southernmost field. That's where the creature was supposed to be appearing. Luckily for us, during the trip from the main village to the Brother Village, Rex took some time to practice the skill that the Rodenti were using in the tunnel. The one that created a large platform to carry large groups of people. With that skill, he was able to do the same thing outside and take us to our destination.

That being...

Hey everyone! Good news! I reached 9 chapters ahead of what is avaliable for free. We are more than halfway done!
Not the bad part.
For the explorer tier, chapters will always be 2 weeks behind the last chapter of the Gold Card tier and above.

This means that starting the next chapter of MAZE, explorer tier chapters will be released later. And, as I had mentioned before, the exact time will vary. Because Patreon doesn't let me schedule changes so I...

MAZE - Chapter 1112 - Coiled Serpent

As the group arrived near the Coiled Serpent, the capital of the Naga homeland, they all started to feel a strange sensation washing over their bodies. It wasn't something specific, just a general sense of wrongness, as if they were approaching a place that should be left alone. If they all hadn't dealt with an actual curse in the past, they would without a question believe that this place was cursed.

But since they had that experience in dealing with the curse that attached itself to ...

Energy Eater - Chapter 172 - Village Chief

Ash took us to one of the houses. It was a simpler one, at least compared to the one right beside it. That one was much bigger and well put together, with some small stone structures in the front. Structures that were very similar to the type of construction that Rex was used to doing. Especially the ones we saw him do after he got to tier two. It was funny to think that even when he was younger, this type of thing still stayed the same for our companion.

There were also a few things th...

MAZE - Chapter 1111 - The Map

"This is amazing," Shane was grinning from ear to ear.

"It really is. The fact that this survived this long is nothing short of incredible," Bonnie nodded.

"But do you think this is accurate?" Alex turned to the Ophidianite.

"I do," the Empress nodded. "Even if it's not 100% accurate, it's going to be pretty impossible for the Naga to have completely uprooted their cities and placed them somewhere else, especially considering their size."

Hera pointed to the capital, w...

Energy Eater - Chapter 171 - Rex's Father

We followed along the rock tunnel from the brother village to the main village. And that was very similar to the trip from the entrance of the desert to the sister village, then from the sister village to the brother village. Even then, we were still playing around, trying to win the race and using everything at our disposal to make someone else fall down. At the same time being sure not to hurt anyone too much. Small bruises were expected when they were throwing rocks at each other, but anyt...

MAZE - Chapter 1110 - Beach Findings

As Hera and her group continued to walk across the beach, everybody had removed their shoes to enjoy the sand between their feet. And unlike what happened while they were walking across the valley, they were relaxed. It was hard to be on edge when they were going across such a beautiful beach.

They also realized that the tide never reached the cliff side, as it was completely dry. There were no markings or indication that it ever got wet. And while it was possible that the tide rose, a...

Energy Eater - Chapter 170 - Sister village

After everybody arrived, Carl and Rex quickly went towards an area of the city that had someone they both knew. Someone who was really worried about Rex and our Rodenti companion wanted to talk to them as soon as possible. This left Vera and some other members of Carl's group to help us get settled in for the night.

It was already clear that Carl was going to take us all the way to the main village, but it was something that would still take a few days as going through the Rock Fly tunn...

MAZE - Chapter 1109 - Dirty Sand

Now that they were at the bottom of the valley, the group had a chance to properly see the dunes. And while it was regular sand for the most part, there was also some weirdness to it. For starters, parts of the soil were embedded with poison. It seemed that as the poison rain fell down, some of the sand absorbed it and eventually the grains became one with it. But thanks to the winds that were constantly moving, the poison didn't stay in this particular area around the Poison Lake plateau. In...
