“So now that you have a hole in the shield, you can escape from this boring place? ”
As Black Eagle Leader Jennid summarizes Yoohyun's words. Then it was natural that the surroundings became noisy. I can escape from the terrible place where I was slowly tightening my breath.
The fact was that his dying face was coming back to life.
But unlike him, there was one person who was excited in a different sense.
“That's ridiculous! How can you simply drill a hole in such a strong shield!? That's impossible! That must be Richie's trap! He's tricking us! ”
Higgs, that's what old man Jennifer used to call him. The first time I saw it, I could feel like an old man, but the old man's eyes were in a color far from the old man's.
This time, Higgs yelled at Percy with his finger.
“This is a shield made by a master class! How can a woman like that do that!? ”
Percy remained in a state of yawning despite his old age. It seemed awkward to her.
Percy spoke in a convincing voice.
“What's so weird about saying you can do what you can? ”
“· · · What? ”
Higgs' face is hardened. His face was turning red.
But Persie said with a cold smile.
“And · · ·. Are you being a wizard and judging your opponent by what he looks like? ”
“ · · · · · · · · · ”
In Percy's words, Higgs kept his mouth shut without saying anything.
Percy yawns again and turns his back on it. She disappeared leaving the frozen Higgs alone. With everyone hovering silently, Jennifer ventilates the atmosphere with an awkward smile.
“Ugh. I think Grandpa Higgs did something wrong this time. Let's believe it. And this guy here is also a pretty famous guy amongst the players. ”
Higgs nods as he suppresses his lunar tremors.
“Ewing · · ·. Yeah, I was wrong. In the meantime, it's easy to believe that I did what I couldn't touch. Hahaha. There are monsters in the world too. I really want to cry. ”
· · · Still older people who knew how to accept it.
The atmosphere became lighter as Higgs took a deep breath.
“Well, I knew the situation anyway. Then we can all move like this? ”
“Yes. I will guide you on your way out of the shield. But we still have work to do. ”
“Huh? You're staying here? What are you talking about?”
“Have you ever seen an altar in the jungle? ”
Jennifer's face hardened at the end. My eyes turned dark.
“· · · If you're looking for it, I suggest you give it up. There's a number of undead around here. We have to penetrate the Undead army to get to the altar, but it's too much. ”
“But we have to go to the altar. Richie's doing something there. ”
“· · · As well. ”
Jennid did not question what he was doing.
For a moment, Jennid, who was in trouble, lifts his head.
“Fine. I'll help you get to the altar. But first, we need to move the patients out of the shield. Some people have lost consciousness because of this guy's shield. ”
“· · · Magical exhaustion? ”
“Yes. Those low-level bastards have been stretching out for days. Dudaka is really going to die like this. So can you just wait a little while for this to end? ”
“Got it.”
If that's the case, I have to wait.
*
Yoohyun's group decided to explore the vicinity of the altar while the investigators were moving the people who suffered from the power exhaustion out of the shield. Better to see for yourself than to hear what the situation is like.
It was Percy who punctured the shield, so it was her job to guide her. Thanks to the absence of Percy, Yoohyun wanders around the altar.
Fortunately, the location of the altar was known exactly by the Investigation Group.
However, Yoohyun could not even see the appearance of the altar.
Nearby, countless numbers of undead filled the jungle. In the shade of the trees, they are shining red.
The group sighed as they watched the Undead.
“· · · Brother, no matter how hard you look at it, it's not enough to penetrate. ”
“If we investigate with the Spirit, we'll have to go through at least 200 meters. ”
Gil Yumi and Song Ga-yeon speak in turn. Gil Yumi was looking at the Undead with frightened eyes and finished exploring through the Spirit as to when he summoned Song Gyun.
Yoohyun also wanted to be a little overwhelmed by Song Ga-yeon's words.
It is not the scale of what at least one party can do.
I tried to break through the Undead herd, and even if my feet were tied in the middle, it could end there. I can't do Yoohyun if I'm surrounded by all sides.
· · · Moreover. There is a rich on the altar.
I couldn't let Percy use his strength to fight Rich when he crossed the road to the altar.
The forest is dead. The trees are empty inside, unlike what they look like. Maybe the shield will disappear and this neighborhood will turn into a wasteland. It's been too long already.
Paredia, who was flying beside the shoulder of celestial painting, said sadly. What exactly does the jungle look like in the eyes of the President? Even the forest that was eaten with all its life can no longer be restored.
It was then.
“Argh! ”
Song Song Gyeong, who was exploring around the altar through the Spirit, shed a shallow moan. Yoohyun was surprised to see her suffering with her hands on her head, and everyone asked.
“Wh, what happened!? ”
“Flammable, are you okay? ”
“Hey, what happened all of a sudden? ”
Out of everyone's concern, Song Gyeong-yeon replied with hard eyes.
“Someone attacked my spirit. ”
You don't think the spirit has vanished?
When Paredia asks, Song Gyun shakes his head.
“Fortunately, I was able to recall just before the attack hit. But thanks to you, I feel like I'm in a lot of trouble, but I don't think it's going to be a big problem if I take a break. ”
The Song Gyeonggin stared at the side of the altar as he stumbled barely.
“· · · Is it Rich? ”
“Perhaps, yes. ”
If it's Rich enough, the movement of the Spirit will be easy to notice. It is really a good thing that the Spirit who contracted with Song Ga-yeon did not extinguish. If it had been extinguished, it would have been devastating.
I roughly knew the situation around the altar.
‘Is there a rich beyond that undead? ’
I can feel a strong energy. But it wasn't Richie's energy.
Yoohyun only detected that the magic power absorbed through the shield is being concentrated in one place. The same sensation that electricity grips and touches the skin. Are you planning to devastate the jungle itself like this?
If you don't feel ominous about this energy, it will be a lie.
‘It's not good. ’
But for now, there is no way.
Yoohyun once decided to back off.

Knowing that the situation was urgent, moving the patients out of the shield was quickly over.
The number of people who lost their minds due to the exhaustion of horsepower was 60, a significant number considering that there were about 200 overall survivors.
That did not mean that all the remaining 140 people could fight. I didn't lose my mind. In fact, most of them were exhausted, so there were about 50 people who could fight.
Thanks to that, only the elite were properly selected. Skilled people who can fight even if exposed to the shield for a long time. Indeed, there were a number of Experts among those selected.
No one is weaker than Gil Yumi and the Southerners.
· · · If it were normal, it would be.
Jennid, the black hawk commander, also has a tired face and is no different from the others. However, they decided to lead the body and pave the way to the altar.
“Let me tell you one thing. ”
Jennid stands in front of Yoohyun, armed to the end. With Lee Seo-yeon's great sword on his back, he looked even bigger because he was wearing full-plate armor.
Even in these jungles, I do that kind of equipment.
At first glance, I could see the runes embedded inside the armor. That must be why those runes can do that equipment without problems in the jungle.
“All we can do is pave the way. I'm sorry, but it's impossible to hold on until I get back. As soon as you enter the altar, we intend to retreat. ”
“That's fine. Don't wait for us, you'll be right back in the city. ”
“· · · Are you really going? There's Richie. ”
How many times have you checked? Yoohyun nods without hesitation.
Then Jennifer says, "Without hiding the complicated feelings," and Nazic mutters.
And the moment he turned his back.
“Everyone, let's give Richie a shot! ”
“Ohhhhh!! ”
I shouted in a growling voice as if my previous face was a lie. In his words, the expeditionaries of the different parties around him began to defend and respond.
Magic power flows around. Everyone was releasing their magic as if they were going to pour out all their power this time. It was spectacular how many wizards memorize spells with all their souls.
Yoohyun called the group there.
“Everybody get ready. We just run. ”
While speaking, I stare at Percy cleanly.
It's a relaxing atmosphere. Unlike the turbulent surroundings, she looks like she's had a picnic. Looking at him, Yoohyun was relieved of the power he was exerting on his shoulders.
· · · Can I expect it?
“Why? Worried? ”
Do you know Yoohyun's gaze? She walks up to Yoohyun's nose with a shabby expression and touches her side of the face. Her eyes were glowing harshly. It's like seeing a pretty jewel. But being drunk by its beauty is as creepy as it sounds when something terrible happens.
Yoohyun did not make any expression at her playful touch.
I just say one word in a sinking voice.
“If it seems difficult, I'll help. ”
Speaking of which, Yoohyun thought she didn't need to speak with a proud face.
“Yes? Then let's see how powerful you are. Phew.”
“That · · ·. Are you serious?”
So Yoohyun was forced to stop when she said things she didn't think of.
Then this time, no, and she shakes her head.
With a playful look on her face, she said.
“He's my food. I can't borrow someone else's hand. ”
A woman who can't get used to thinking a few times.
A playful look is a lie. Her eyes resemble those of a predator that captured the prey.
Licking her lips to see if she was waiting for a fight, she smiles harshly.
