Ellis headed to the highest ground with the grand ambition of leeching a wage, solely to seek out the Adventurers’ Guild abandoned. The town was affected by the Knights’ actions. A junior clerk frantically organized paperwork, his face tense with fear.
In distinction, the low and mid-rank adventurers bustling about since morning appeared completely relaxed. Any commotion would doubtless be simply squabbles over non permanent social gathering distributions, utterly unrelated to the clerk’s anxiousness.
This needed to imply unhealthy information had come down from above.
“I might like to listen to concerning the 51st ground.”
“Huh? Why would you- Oh! It is Sir Roland!” The clerk’s gloomy expression brightened noticeably as she seemed up at me.
Her change in demeanor was fairly lovely, prompting feedback to pop up within the chat. It appeared the saying about Adventurers’ Guild receptionists being employed for his or her appears to be like rang true. The petite, brown-haired clerk, reminding me of a squirrel, handed over the paperwork with out hesitation.
The quantity 51 instantly caught my eye. Under it had been ominous phrases: injury report, lacking individuals, casualties.
“Hmm… I ponder what made them suppose they may deal with that ground.”
“What occurred?”
“Appears like some mid-rank adventurers who went up as staff obtained grasping and entered the 51st ground. They need to’ve thought they may escape if wanted after listening to it was a plains.”
The data that the 51st ground was an unlimited plains equivalent to the first ground had grow to be a harmful lure. The paperwork detailed how these adventurers had carelessly entered the realm.
About six events, totaling forty individuals – reckless mid-rank fools who’d elevated their numbers past the common social gathering measurement – had let their guard down on the sight of the plains. Solely two survivors remained. The remaining had been both lacking or useless. And the monsters that had annihilated them? Goblins.
…Goblins?Cheêck out newest novels on n/o/ve/l/bin(.)c/o/m
“Goblins? Forty mid-rank adventurers had been defeated by goblins?” I could not consider it.
“It says there have been some orcs blended in too,” Grace identified. “Perhaps the survivors’ testimony was distorted by panic?”
Grace and Katie had someway materialized on both aspect of me to see on the paperwork. Irene, standing a step again, made a small signal of the cross, praying for the souls of the useless adventurers.
Han Se-ah, although not approaching straight, positioned her digicam over the paperwork and commenced slowly studying by means of them, participating in dialog along with her viewers.
These had been mid-rank adventurers, skilled to a stage that standard civilians could not hope to beat even when reborn – like skilled martial artists or kendo instructors. And so they had been killed by goblins, who’re about as threatening as elementary schoolers with kitchen knives?
This was nearer to information of a UFC champion being ambushed and killed by 5 neighborhood punks wielding rocks. I could not assist however doubt my eyes.
“What sort of goblins… What? A legion?”
The chat exploded with feedback.
-Appears like they’re coming in laborious to rejoice the beginning of Season 2.
-Proper? It is about time for one thing like a Demon King’s military to indicate up. How lengthy are they gonna maintain utilizing common monsters?
-Goblins lol. Trainer Roland’s sky-high throw continues to be circulating in shorts.
-Goblin legion with orcs and centaurs, what’s subsequent lmao.
“Somebody’s working in direction of us,” Grace warned. “Appears just like the centaurs we noticed within the paperwork.”
“Did they spot us earlier than you sensed them?” I requested.
“We observed one another across the similar time, I believe.”
Within the distance, within the route Grace pointed, we might see clouds of mud rising.
To suppose their scouting talents rivaled these of a 5★ detection-specialized character. No marvel the mid-rank adventurers had died with no peep. Really, it was spectacular that even one had made it again alive.
If as much as the fiftieth ground was an area the place mid-rank adventurers might threat their lives to earn cash, then from the 51st ground on, it gave the impression to be a stage the place mid-rank adventurers risked their lives and easily died. Nonetheless, they could be high quality coming as help for high-rankers.
“Kiyaaaaaaah!”
“Yaaaaaaah!”
“People! It is people!”
I lowered my stance barely whereas gripping my defend. Then I heard Han Se-ah’s voice from behind.
“I’ll check out some superior magic, so maintain your place, Roland.”
“Bought it,” I replied.
If I remembered appropriately from what I might seen on her stream, she had realized Name Lightning as a single-target nuke, adopted by Summon Ice Storm as an AoE CC talent.
Mana condensed in her employees, swirling about, and my physique responded with a shiver. Whether or not she was making an attempt to broaden the vary or apply some variation, her mana moved rather more than traditional. Even the chat pace slowed down, as if getting ready to blow up with pleasure.
The centaurs, trampling the plains grass as they charged, appeared oblivious to Han Se-ah’s mana. With the decrease physique of a horse and the higher physique of a human, they’d adorned their torsos with dye-painted tattoos like barbarian warriors.
“Break by means of! Break by means of!”
“Kill the human mage!”
They will need to have instinctively grasped cavalry technique. In spite of everything, cavalry that loses its pace is not any totally different from archers with out arrows.
Nevertheless, due to Grace’s fast detection, Han Se-ah’s magic was accomplished even sooner.
“Summon, Ice Storm!”
A small whirlwind bloomed. A tiny gust that began proper beneath the centaurs’ hooves immediately erupted like an oil-soaked flame.
The blue vortex, barely reaching the peak of an individual’s shin, gaped huge like a sinkhole opening up, swallowing all of the charging centaurs. A whole lot of mana-infused snowflakes spun fiercely alongside the vortex, pummeling the enemies’ our bodies.
“M-must… run…” one of many centaurs gasped.
The centaurs, their our bodies frozen a deep blue and lips turned black, staggered out of the storm and collapsed onto the plains with heavy thuds.
“Ah, mana overload…”
And Han Se-ah, who had been underneath Katie’s safety, additionally collapsed with a thud.
Was she actually making an attempt to hustle some cash?
…Please inform me that was the case.
