Chapter 71 (1/2)
”Throw him out!”
”Hang him by the neck!”
”Break his stupid jaw!”
The people ere gathered in a circle cheered loudly Well it was et rid of their fear for the Demon Cave like this
There was a fight going on in the middle
It was a sith Should we call it a battle for hierarchy? The prisoners fought every single day, as if deter
But it was a boring battle each tier than the rest
Hanka, a prisoner frodom
A giant as over 220 centi body as well, so he looked more like a troll than a hu
But his agility was surprisingly good as well
He also said he spent about 10 years as a er, followed by 5 years of ood compared to his level
”Aigoo!”
”daain”
Hanka easily threw his opponent to the sideThe fight had ended in less than 10 seconds
”Is there anybody else? Anyone?”
Over 10 people were already defeated If you include the people that were defeated before I got here, it would be over 50 people
If there were no healing potions, about half of them would probably be in the hospital by now
nobody else stepped forward Hanka was already accepted as the strongest
That as how Hanka had ended up the head of the prisoners
Thanks to that, the teamas coet along with each other had become one with Hanka in the center
But the surprising thing hat came next
”Did you say your name was Hansen?”
”Yes”
”You have experience with De Squads?”
”Once”
”Then please be the leader and lead the squad Isn't that the way for us to have a better chance to survive?”
Hanka had handed over the head position he fought so hard to get to Hansen
It made sense It is ence and experience, as well as decision th
I' a mercenary for over 5 years
But why does it see discussed with each other how to cheat beforehand?
Either way, that was how the 100 people on the De Squad became one, and it was now time to enter the Demon Cave
We had made plenty of preparations We received plenty of supplies from both the Athena Tes that ould need and put a bunch of theic cabinet
The ic cabinet is made so that you can carry it on your back, but it is able to store large iteic bag
The ic cabinet had not only shi+elds, but also bows, arrows, spears,out, it would probably weighs over 1 ton, but when you put it over your shoulder, it doesn't feel any heavier than 20 kilograms
Of course, I carriedas well It isn't easy to take stuff out of the ic cabinet in the middle of a battle
The leader of the group, Hansen, first sought for volunteers for reconnaissance
”is there any volunteers?”
We definitely needed a scouting squad to do the reconnaissance We need to knohich roup can take out the shi+eld and have enough time to set up the defense formation
If you run a like that, you will all end up dead without h the Demon Cave
But there were no volunteers That was the sa, 'I volunteer to die first'
Even the 12 who volunteered to join the De Squad avoided the scout position
Hansen didn't seem to have much expectations for it either He continued to speak without waiting a long time
”Then I will decide a scouting party First……”
”I will do it”
I volunteered I was planning onin the front anyways
Everybody looked at me with shock as if it was unexpected
But there were no questions Whoever it was, they were just glad someone volunteered to die in their place
”Thank you for volunteering We need at least two more people If nobody else volunteers……”
”I will do it alone”
There wasn't enough for me to eat on my own I didn't want to share the experience points with anybody
More importantly, I don't want toSquad can just help me when I need help
”Will you be okay?”
”I have the Skywolf's Leather Armor It has the [tealthy Approach] ability I will try first and, if it see party at that point”
Hansen saw my leather armor and nodded his head
”I understand Then……”
The scout position was the least desired position of any De Squad
Since that position was deterured out smoothly nobody see pretty nicely
”Then let us enter”
Hansen entered first and the rest of the De Squad entered the Demon Cave
”Ugh, it makes me feel weird”
”shi+t, I feel like I'rave”
I didn't feel good either
But I wasn't that nervous Even if you put aside the nuame, this was still not the first time I was in a Demon Cave
It was notAkto's test
It was a cave wide enough for two tanks to e halls inside as well
It just seems to have less monsters than that time It's probably because this is the entrance The further we go in, the her level monsters there will be
We already set our strategy outside the Demon Cave We didn't need extra tined tasks
The first to move was me, the scout
I adjusted the ht on my helmet to come out weakly
Honestly, I didn't need this light The inside of the Demon Cave was dark, but I had the Owl's Eye that letinside
I was just pretending to hide that fact
”I will leave a er”
”I understand”
I put the party behind me and quickly moved forward
Every so often, I saw Giant Spiders or wor my cutlass each time to easily hunt them
The rate after about a minute once they are dead
Thanks to that, even if I hunt a ton of monsters, the main party will not know that fact
As I continued to go in deeper, o up as well
I finally felt like I was hunting
'They need to at least be this strong forcombo'
I unleashed a round of combo like that and took a break
Around 10 ht up to me
Everybody was shocked at this unexpected situation in the Demon Cave
”What's going on? Are Demon Caves always this quiet?”
”Why is it so easy? Did the monsters die on their own?”
”I was afraid for no reason”
It was all of their first ti it was always like this
But Hansen was different Even though it was only once, he had been in a Demon Cave before
”What is going on? It shouldn't be this quiet”
”There were some weak monsters I was able to take care of them on my own so I just cleared them on my way in”
”I see”
Hansen nodded his head
But it didn't look like he accepted my excuse But since it looked like i wouldn't tell the truth, he just didn't ask any further
”Do you need support?”
”I am still okay But can we just rest for a couple hours?”
I have beennon-stop for 8 hours Since the floor is not flat, justalone shouldue multiplied
”Sure”
”Then I will close my eyes for a bit”
I found a decently flat area and laid down While I did that, Hansen ordered the others to stand guard This is why you need allies Even if it is a weakyou, you are co
