Chapter 827 - Response from the Land of Chaos (2/2)

At this moment, loud footsteps were heard.

Everyone was scared stiff and looked around in panic. The footsteps sounded so strange—they were so close, yet so far. Not only that, but they also seemed to be everywhere around them. Most of the people hadn’t experienced such a situation before. Joey unsheathed his dagger while Marlene and Lize leaned towards Rhode subconsciously. They had never been this close to the Chaos border because they had heard about legends where people who approached Chaos out of curiosity had their souls extracted and never turned back as they headed into Chaos.

Then, several tall figures emerged from the indistinct Chaos.

“That is…”

Marlene widened her eyes in astonishment. There were around three to four burly humans with wild, barbaric appearances. Their style of dress was also unevenly sized. Lize witnessed one strong, muscular man clad in chain mail that couldn’t even cover his stomach. She was sure that the chain mail definitely wasn’t for him! Not only that, but they also carried enormous weapons and a torch burning with Order flames.

“…”

After they stepped out of the Land of Chaos, the strange, loud footsteps instantly returned to their usual volume. Rhode shook his head at the sight of everyone staring in disbelief. The Land of Chaos was truly a mysterious place.

It seems like it’s necessary for them to familiarize themselves with that place.

Rhode was aware that in the near future, he had to lead this group into the depths of the Land of Chaos. Judging from their current state, they would surely be doomed.

“Did you light up the column?”

The mysterious figures arrived before them and their leader asked.

“Yes.”

Rhode gestured for everyone to stay calm and nodded in agreement.

“Good.”

The leader gazed in astonishment and nodded without speaking a word. Then, he lifted a large sack from behind and dropped it before him. Two of the men behind him drew their weapons and pointed forward, to which Rhode’s group instantly tensed up. The group didn’t know who these people were, but they seemed intimidating. The group readied their weapons and gazed at the mysterious men in uncertainty. Up until this moment, they still couldn’t understand why Rhode came to this place. However… judging from Rhode’s behavior, it seems like he knew those people.

The leader ignored their reactions. He simply pointed at the stuff on the ground and looked at Rhode.

“Deal.”
