Chapter 147 (2/2)

Nangnang looked up again and asked, “Why didn’t they ether, but instead let one of the quietly, Ru A He wasn’t sure, but he had an inkling

“What’s the possibility that the eighth recruits were transmitted near here?”

“Not sure If only ten people participated, it could be the case”

“…We need to gather ave out orders The three platoons which had been going in a straight line changed into a horizontal for coic However, besides the spot Nangnang first found, they didn’t find even the faintest of traces anywhere else

Time passed Once afternoon caain It was because Nangnang had spotted soe fros It would have been great if they could clie point to do this more efficiently, but there were nothat could be called a hill Fortunately, there was a hero a the rescue team who could fly—he was a birdh in the sky and scanned the horizons before landing and delivering shocking news

“I found a place in the distance that looked like a city”

“A city?”

“Yeah I couldn’t see it clearly because it was far away, but it looked quite large There’s s into the air everywhere”

Ru Amuh resumed the march immediately As they moved in the direction the bird hero pointed theed Coh so far, what stretched before theentle slopes in the area, preventing the in And far beyond that, they saw a towering castle

A city surrounded by h it was at a considerable distance away, everything the bird hero said was correct Fla out black shtning striking down the city Without even entering, it was clear how dire the situation inside was

“Well…I’, as quietly watching the city, clicked his tongue “Even the seventh recruits were better off than the eighth recruits—if we disregard everything other than our circu”

Ru Amuh responded, “So thatpointed his chin towards the city

“There are siet our answers as we get closer, but it’s pretty clear they are heading toward the city”

Ru Aroup of people had soht by unknown pursuers As a result, one person escaped, and the rest blocked the attackers with their life on the line But what if this group of people was the eighth recruits? That would give theh picture of what had happened to thehth recruits must have been transported to that city”

“Well, that’s thesaid calanize the inforhth recruits received their mission from the prophecy and entered Liber, but as soon as they arrived, they were sent to a city full of enemies And while they were in the th, so they hoped to get help fro trailed off and frowned “This is a bit…strange?”

The fact that a suicide squad was foret aid hth recruits were in an extre by what they could see fro their ene Recruits eak and not so different froot to this world Moreover, there were probably only a few hundred people at most, and at thisorder on Liber In short, their enehth recruits if they wanted to—just like how the fifth, sixth, and of course, seventh recruits had to run away at one point of tihth recruits were not fools Even though they had lost their power, their experience as a hero still remained Therefore, once they realized the difference in their strength between them and their enemies, they should have nang?” Ru Amuh called out to hinang quickly blinked “Since the city is in such a state, it hting, itsides Yeah, the cru city should’ve turned quiet by now if the situation has already been sorted out, but…” Nangnang went on and on before hth recruits must have been in a hopeless situation in which they all had a high possibility of dying, and rather than sitting still and accepting their fate, they should have given up on their e a path of escape like the seventh recruits had done However, on their way here, they hadn’t found traces of any other group except the one they were tracking In other words, the eighth recruits had decided to continue with their h the power difference between their enemies and them was stark, they didn't back down They had decided to send out a sroup of people to inform the other recruits of their situation and hold out in the city until the reinforcements arrived

“Why on earth…”

Boo out fro collapsed A short ti collapsed The two buildings were on opposite sides of the city

Nangnang stared at the city from a thousand miles away and h his mind “Yeah, it would all make sense if there’s not one but two hostile factions…and if there is a confrontation between two hth recruits were not facing ene forces and hiding in the eye of the storm It all made sense now

A battle inside a city was far s scattered around could serve as watchtowers Therefore, neither side would let the other take over the city Every time one side tried to enter the city and occupy it, the other side furiously fought back As a result, the two forces have been fighting a war of attrition both inside and outside the city

“It’s not a siege,” said Nangnang “That h chance that the city had been unoccupied in the beginning”

Ru Amuh asked, “Ms Hawa, could you please take a look at the map?”

Hawa immediately opened up the map It was a new one they created based on the h overview of their current surroundings Soon, Hawa looked up “It’s at the border of two territories”

Ru Aroaned He didn’t even need to ask which those territories were because there were only two main forces in this area—the Deenous Monsters

“I think that…the prophecy is pushi+ng things a little too far this ti with nonstop explosions with distaste and said, “They ht have all died No, it would make more sense for them to be completely annihilated”

But there was a chance that there were still survivors Nangnang continued, “If soood chance that they’re hiding in the center of the city” If the two forces were about evenly-ridlock every day, there ood chance that here the eighth recruits were hiding—if they were still alive

—Oh~ This isme curious Was the city unoccupied at first? Then why are the two factions suddenly fighting each other so fiercely? It’sme wonder what’s inside

Philip spoke as if he was enjoying a fire show frooing to do, teahtly shut his eyes Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through theent and metallic smell

“…” Chi-Woo helplessly stared at the city The heavy energy that he had been feeling since he entered the forest turned out to be the loo war clouds
