Meanwhile, on the south side.
"Report how many are still alive!"
Having a messy appearance, Zander said in an annoyed tone.
Around it, many human corpses and the carcasses of bees they killed. Even though they survived, the price they needed to pay was truly expensive.
"Report, Sir! Including you, the remaining troops numbered 46 people!"
"Junk! We have lost too many people! The area we explored was not yet 10%, but so many died!"
Zander. Just then, he recalled the figure of Hades who looked so calm. The man also recalled what was said from the head of the Dark Caravan.
'No! Once again .. You owe me, Julian.'
Recalling the sentence, Zander suddenly felt strange, even a little scared. It was as if, from the very beginning, Ark knew what people were really going to face.
"shouldn't. I'm just thinking too much" Zander murmured.
The man shook his head. Although the Dark Caravan was indeed powerful, it was impossible for them to go around and investigate all dangerous places freely. The more he thought about it, the more certain he became.
"Are we coming back, sir?"
"Well?!"
The words of one of his subordinates made Zander snort coldly. He immediately looked at the man with a ferocious look.
"I don't know if the other group met with another problem or just us who were less fortunate. But we cannot retreat!
We should at least look for more data! Do not let the dignity of the Imperial Tiger be dropped by the commoners. We can't be overpowered by them!"
Hearing Zander's words, people looked confused. Although they were also proud of the position of the Imperial Tiger, but they were not so extreme. Almost all members of the Imperial Tiger were still ordinary humans who liked profits, liked to be on higher ground, but were also afraid of death.
"In addition to our group, we heard screams from various directions. So it should be, not just our group ...
But the other group suffered too!"
"If so, shouldn't we withdraw immediately?"
"Stupid! That's exactly why we have to survive!"
"I'm sorry?" Zander's subordinate really looked confused.
"We'll rest in this place for an hour. Rest enough, make sure to recover energy.
It seems there are many dangerous creatures in this forest, so we need to stay prepared."
As the man appointed to lead the siege troops, Zander was definitely not a man without a brain. Although arrogant, but he does have decent thinking skills. Merely, the excessive change of the world had limited his imagination.
An hour later, Zander looked at his men. Although it looked messy, they were calmer than before. Still exhausted, but had the determination to fight!
"Then we continue the expedition!"

Meanwhile, in the south-eastern part of the city park.
"Have you guys had enough rest?"
Ark looked towards the Silver Cross members. Those people immediately answered in unison.
"We're ready, sir!"
"Good," said Ark flat.
After the battle, Ark told them to cut off the head of the giant silkworm. At first they were confused, but he explained patiently.
Ark assured them that the other group would definitely lose a lot of members. This will definitely make them (Silver Cross) suspected. So, what they need to do is bring proof.
Of course, Ark wouldn't say that the creature's head could be dried and then finely ground.
The powder is perfect for Devil's Vines fertilizers, making the plant more elastic but also stronger. It is harder to break or cut!
'Who is stupid enough to ignore free labor.'
"You're really good, Hades! Thank you for reminding us."
Julian said sincerely. Bringing evidence clearly spared them unnecessary trouble.
"We'll go deeper into the area for the survey. Carrying that thing makes you unable to fight, so gather it in one place and then grab it when you return!"
"Good, Sir!" answer them in unison.
While walking forward, Julian asked Ark with a curious expression.
"I know that the previous fight was quite fierce, but why did we rest for so long, Hades?"
"Because that's what the other group did.
As long as they survived by taking out the enemy and not escaping, they would definitely choose to rest."
"To recover energy?"
"Yes. But for slightly smarter people, especially those with high positions, this is part of a simple trick to reduce the members of a competing group.
I myself am sure, of the eight forces in various directions, except for us .. maybe only two or three groups managed to fight without escaping."
"Another Imperial Tiger. How they are so cruel! Rather than choosing to retreat, they instead tried to finish us off at this place!"
Julian gritted his teeth. The man seemed to be angry and was getting irritated by the behavior of the Imperial Tiger. Ark was satisfied when he saw Julian's performance.
"Forget over! Rather than thinking of people who don't care about us, we'd better think of ourselves."
Passing through the bushes and arriving at a wide flat area, Ark suddenly made a gesture for the people behind to be silent.
Unlike other parts of the forest, the top is not covered in twigs and foliage.
In the middle of the flat and grassy ground, there appeared the remains of a large tree stump. Dry and contrasting when compared to other fertile areas.
On top of the tree stump, there appeared a large creature. It's about the size of a Mini Cooper!
"Hades, this ..."
"You better shut up."
Looking at the creature, Ark frowned. The young man did not know if he was lucky or unlucky. Now that he had again encountered a rare creature, not inferior to the Rotten Ghost Mantis!
The large, dense body was like a car coated by a dark brown hard shell, shiny when exposed to light. On top of the small head, three large and sharp horns formed a trident.
Its appearance was completely similar to that of an atlas beetle, but it was gigantic in size and looked even fiercer!
"Be aware of the surrounding scenery well. After that, we retreat and get back to rest."
Ark gave the order.
"We're not against it?"
Hearing Lisa's question, the corner of Ark's lips twitched.
"All we need to do is observe. Observe the environment well and then make a report.
Don't act too recklessly. Even if the creature seems calm and peaceful, that doesn't mean it's harmless!"
Yep. The giant beetles bask in the sun. Closing his eyes, it seems to choose a nap rather than paying attention to some small creatures (humans) that are harmless to him.
Although it looked arrogant, but Ark knew where that confidence came from.
An ordinary sword, a weathered old wreckage was absolutely impossible to use to damage its shell!
Even Ark's new sword was still inferior in terms of toughness and sturdiness!
Of course, the Ark sword itself had the advantage of being extremely sharp and light. The young man can also kill the creature. However, it hurt her heart so much to let the beautiful creature die in vain.
Not to mention, if fighting .. the fight must also be very heavy.
Therefore, Ark chose to lie down while waiting.
