Chapter 325: Alpaca (1/2)

”What is the condition?” Evan asked with a serious condition.

”It's simple. If you are surrounded, I will be helping you. I will also monitor you at any given time.”

”Alright, I agree.” He nodded. ”I know my weakness well, and how concerned you are about my safety, so I won't say anything about this. Anything other than that, I would like to make a full decision.”

”It's your part, you are the one filling the details. I won't say anything other than our general plan.” He nodded. ”Besides, I have been letting all of you much freedom unless it's necessary.”

”True enough.” He nodded. ”By the way, you don't mind if I take care of all the other magical beasts first, right? Kiting is fine, but I think I can kill around half of them while waiting for you to take down the second one.”

”It's your choice.”

”Alright.” After agreeing to these terms, Kai and Evan decided to go back to their camp, resting through the day to recover from their fatigue.

Kai was trying to come up with another plan that might be better than the one he made on the fly while Evan was wiping his pistol, preparing everything possible.

The next day, they both looked at each other before Kai noticed how Evan brought two cases with him.

”Bullets?” Kai seemed to recognize his intention and asked.

”Yeah. I don't know how many monsters we need to kill since they might order some of the magical beasts to gather around them instead of fighting the two armies. That's why I am planning to make depots where I can resupply.”

Kai closed his eyes and contemplated for two minutes before nodding. ”I understand. If the situation hasn't changed, I know two perfect spots to make depots. The first depot will be the first layer where we can assemble there to resupply. And I think we can bring some food and water bottles to that place.

”As for the second one, it will be around the coast where we can ask for the Chile Army's help.” He suggested but didn't insist on using those two spots.

Knowing his consideration, he nodded. ”I will leave it to you. I am not good with this anyway.”

”Alright then. Let's go.”

Kai and Evan then set off early in the morning toward the coast of Chile, trying to sneak around the Chile Army and the magical beasts.

This allowed them to wait for the three intelligent beasts to order their beasts to attack the humans again.

As soon as they arrived, Kai asked Evan to wait until around nine in the morning before he deemed it safe to go inside their territory.

After making the two depots, they stopped for a while.

”I will say this again. I will take on the intelligent one while you handle the others.”

”I understand.”

”Let's go. The time limit is one and a half hours.”

As soon as Kai said it, they immediately ran toward their first target.

Although he could listen to their footsteps that could be differentiated into three different groups, Kai couldn't discern which one was the strongest or their leader.

Hence, they needed to check which one was the leader, making it even more dangerous. Even so, they could only do it with minimal information, storming in their territory.

Kai had been leading the group this whole time, making sure they didn't run into a group of magical beasts, alarming the enemies.

The process took around an hour before they finally saw their target.

It was a group of a hundred magical beasts, consisting of many types of magical beasts. However, Kai could clearly see the difference between them.

There was one beast that clearly cut out the rest. It was an alpaca. The size of this alpaca wasn't really different from the normal one, but there was this aura that seemed to be clearly above the rest.

”Hmm… This one seems to be a long-ranged beast.” Kai narrowed his eyes. ”Maybe it can spit out poison… Albeit, that's the first thing that comes into my mind as soon as I see this guy.”

”…” Evan fell silent for a second. ”I don't know why you have such a thought, but whatever the case, it's going to be like what you said a long-ranged beast. I am afraid that it will use all the magical beasts while throwing something at us.”

”Yeah.” Kai nodded. ”That's why I want you to dedicate the first shot to hit this guy while I become the bait.”

”Understood.”

”Alright then. Good luck to you.”

The place was a plain without anything to hide other than tall grasses. Even so, it wasn't enough to hide the entire body, so they were a bit far from the center itself.
