Maren had been walking through deserts, forests, snow-covered mountains, and everything else he was able to walk through, just to find the remaining two earthlings.
He remembered the mission he had gotten a few weeks ago when he first bonded with his unconscious mother.
[New Mission Unlocked!]
[Mission Directive: Gather the earthlings and return to Earth.]
[Task 1 — Earthlings Found: 0/3]
[Task 2 — Find The Key]
[Task 3 — ???]
(Note: Complete Task 1 and Task 2 to unlock Task 3.)
The system had given him a clear directive.
He was supposed to gather all the earthlings and return them to Earth. Three earthlings in total. Task one was to find them. Task two was to find the Gateway Key. Task three was still unknown, locked until he completed the first two tasks.
He had completed the first task by finding the last two earthlings. The first one had been Neve, back in the leopard tribe. Now he had found two more.
But he still had no idea where to find the key.
