293 Unknown Enemy (1/2)

Randy, Zhen Yi, Long Xinya, Akihiro, and Asuka gathered in one place. On the ground, there were three shields, five swords, two bows, two spears, and one ax.

These weapons were the weapon of the person who went missing in investigating the forest. The scene was a bit weird, except the weapons, there was no trace of battle.

This was indicating the unknown enemy knocked the ten people with easy, no resistance from the ten people. There were two possibilities for this. The first one was the unknown enemy far stronger than the ten people. The second, the unknown enemy was good at stealth or those kinds of abilities and ambushed the ten people.

No matter how the unknown enemy knocked the ten people, the most important for now was to save those ten people. But no matter how they looked at the surrounding, there was no clue at all except the weapon.

But what made Randy felt weird was why the unknown enemy left the weapon here.

'Is it a warning for us?'

After fifteen minutes, the others also shook their head. The scene was clean, they could trace nothing at here.

”It seems the unknown enemy is strong, at least it's strong enough to knock our member in one strike,” Akihiro said in a solemn tone,

Randy took one sword, the sword was Epic Grade Weapon. As he held the sword, Randy had an idea and turned his head toward Rocky who was lying down before a tree. Rocky was sleeping.

”Does the lion have a sharp sense of smell?” Randy asked himself, but most likely not. Randy shook his head.

Griffin was a mythology creature, at least it was before the Battle of Ascension started. Griffin, a mythology creature with a lion's body, hawk's wings, and a hawk's head. However, there was a reason why Rocky was more like a lion than Griffin.

It because the lion's gene in Rocky was more dominant, resulting in a Griffin like Rocky born. At least, it was what Shana told him.

Rocky sensed Randy's gaze, he opened his crimson eyes, looking at his master with a puzzled look. Randy showed the swords to Rocky. However, Rocky rolled his eyes at his master and back to sleep.

”You think I'm a dog? Stupid Master!”

There was a melodious voice rang in Randy's mind, it was Shana's voice. She was translating the discontent of Rocky experienced.

Randy ignored Shana but looking for a clue.

They stayed for thirty minutes. However, there was really nothing they could get from here. They decided to get back and just as Randy walked for a few steps. He felt two eyes were watching him.

It was right on his back. Randy stayed calm, trying to detect where the gaze came from.

The others also the same, but they didn't know it was a feeling being watched. They only felt uncomfortable. But soon, they noticed Randy's body flickered before it vanished thoroughly and they heard a ”boom” sound afterward.

The other four immediately looked back and saw Randy was on the branch of Ulinae Tree. They saw Randy's sword stuck on the tree, but there was nothing on the tree.

They puzzled why Randy suddenly attacked the tree. They looked each other, but none of them knew why.

Randy, however, frowned as he looked the tree. He was not attacking the tree for no reason, but the thing who watched him earlier was here. Right, he felt there was someone watching from here, but there was no one here.

Randy scanned the surrounding, but there was really nothing here. He checked the surrounding once more and left the tree after finding nothing here.

Just as Randy leaped down, the trunk which received Randy's sword was bleeding profusely.
