15th day in the Land of Chaos</eaze away from the sandstorm to everyone around him He opened the pocket watch, looked, and closed it In this crazy and chaotic world, tiless But even so, he requested everyone to advance at their own pace because he was clear that once humans lost their perception of tie of insanity

“Leader, two ”

Anne reported Rhode knitted his brows and put away the watch in his pocket He lifted his head and looked at the rather depressed young lady Although they were mentally prepared for this predicament, the number of people who entered the Land of Chaos couldn’t be compared to the previous time Back then, there were around 20 of thee to watch over thehts, there were around 200 soldiers Although Rhode’s Order barrier could envelope everyone in safety, the fear and insanity of the Land of Chaos wasn’t tolerable for everyone Even though everyone looked out for one another, there would still be occasional ti’

Fortunately, ’ ones were ordinary mercenaries This was expected because even with the protection of the Order barrier, they also needed determined minds and will, which they seeh the slaughtering in battles, but theblocked off froony of physical pain As they couldn’t tolerate the confusion of their consciousness, they were lured by Chaos and left the Order barrier, which they were eventually shredded in the endless stor too hed If it were players exploring the Land of Chaos, perhaps a 100-ht coordination and skills could succeed even at his current level But now, these men were NPCs, which explained why he involved nearly four times the nuardless From the day they entered the Land of Chaos until now, there were around 40 ent ive rise to panicky situations, Rhode knew that signs of concerns were starting to show up in his h everyone was mentally prepared before they came here and they heard about the situation in this place, it was different after experiencing it for theht hihter and tears was that under such a circumstance, the Thieves under Joey and mercenaries under Marfa were the ones ere on the brink of going insane On the other hand, the Clerics led by Lize who he was most worried about couldn’t behave th to cope with the harsh conditions here and thought they would be crying and asking to return ho foot into here But in the end, Lize told hihts as they prayed in the church on their knees all day and throughout the night Coe

No wonder the Country of Law and church were the ones who defended everyone when Chaos started wreaking havoc on the continent It seems like they were indeed capable…

“How is Christie?”

“Not doing well, but Marlene is taking care of her She will be fine”

As expected, Christie fainted the instant they entered the Land of Chaos She had a weak constitution to begin with and even a split second of disconnection with Order would i that Rhode considered lucky, it would be that Christie didn’t suffer the torturous agony of a bulging head and heavy feet But even so, she was still feeling weak despite being in the Order barrier She also wasn’t able to walk normally, so Rhode handed her to Marlene’s care since Marlene couldn’t cast herladies were protected in the middle of the tea for Christie

to join h Then, he lifted his head and gazed to the front of the team

“Bell”

“…”

Bell turned around and gazed silently After several days of rest, the wan little girl looked much better now Her thin, sallow face turned round and sained its vibrancy She wore a fitting, simple black dress noever, what left Rhode speechless were the two daggers she brought when she left the refuge He had taken a look at theed with the ested switching her weapons, but was fir, her panicky behavior of hiding the two daggers behind her proved her intention Fortunately, she was in the Legendary Stage and he wasn’t worried that she would be killed by anyone even without a legendary weapon

Thanks to the Order channel inside Bell, Rhode faced much fewer troubles in the Land of Chaos this time The Order channel constantly provided the powers of the tinder, which strengthened the Order barrier and kept the Chaos Creatures away Not only that, but Bell also used the relation between the Order channel and tinder and engaged in teleportation to shorten the distance froe amount of her spiritual pohenever they teleported, so Rhode ht as well use her as a timestamp The duration of a day was deterth and used the next teleportation This was also done in consensus with others, where Anne even used the amount of spiritual pohich Bell restored to deterht’

“How troublesoion Rhode gazed at the violent stor of the storainst the barrier, which ht shatter at any ed at this thought

“How many more teleports do we need to reach the tinder?”

“…”

Bell pondered for a few ers Then, she lifted her left hand and showed three fingers

“Two to three tih it wasn’t clear from her actions, Rhode basically understood what she meant after the amount of time spent with her here The closer they were to the core, the stronger the Chaos Creatures were Moreover, her strength would be consu It was due to this that the strength of Order inside her used to maintain the Order barrier also weakened, which resulted in the to deal with the Chaos Creatures’ attacks after every teleport The battles only ended after Bell slowly restored her strength and the powers of the tinder re-strengthened the barrier Although Rhode didn’t lose too et complacent Currently, everyone’s mentality was alet over this; if not, they would continue to suffer the trauma even after they returned to the Land of Atonement safely

“Get ready for teleportation”

Rhode gave Bell an order Then, he turned to everyone and let out a sharp whistle

Everyone hurriedly packed their stuff while the Bow Knights stood up and raised their bows in unison to form a circular defense fores were responsible for the second layer of defense The re Bell, Christie, Marlene, Lesa, and the Clerics in thethat everyone was ready, Rhode nodded to Bell, and the little girl raised her right ar silver-whitish radiance e to the peak of the Order barrier The ground shook and the translucent barrier instantly flickered In the blink of an eye, white radiance enveloped everything Rhode shut his eyes froht of Order After several teleportations, he already kneould happen next Shortly after, the ground beneath his feet was as if a carpet was being pulled away and gravity disappeared, and the world twisted on him…

“———!”

Rhode opened his eyes and swung the silver-whitish blade in his hand

“Owh——!”

A Chaos Creature rese a rotten jellyfish was sliced into half by hiht dust and scattered all over However, Rhode didn’t let his guard down He clasped Star Mark with both hands, tolerating the dizziness from the teleportation He stared at the Chaos Creature that had turned into dust before hiain coalesced, and a razor-sharp triangular horn eed in midair and propelled to hi blade erupted with silver-whitish flaether In a ed and burned the Chaos Creatures into ashes
