Ark's figure quickly flashed and reached Jay's side. At that very instant, the man's body finally collapsed.
Seeing Jay's condition, Ark let out a long sigh. Seeing the triumphant smile on his friend's face, he said.
“Didn't I tell you to hold back? What are you doing now? Trying to kill yourself?”
Hearing Ark's words, Jay smiled wryly. However his expression turned serious as he held tightly onto Ark's clothes. His consciousness was about to fade away, he tried hard to say what he needed to say.
“It's not over. The cannibals were planning to herd many mutated beasts into this place.
I've done a good job. So please protect Golden ..”
Not finishing his speech yet, Jay's consciousness simply disappeared.
Ark glanced at his best friend with a serious expression. Turning his gaze to the people who followed him, he said.
“You heard it, right? The battle is not over yet, especially for those of us who are just about to start it.”
“OOHH!!”
Hearing the cheers, Ark shrugged with a flat expression on his face. The young man then tells Dedric to help bring in the exhausted Jay. After that, he looked towards the people and then spoke again.
“Thirty people will go in the direction I pointed. Follow the troops from the Golden Maple Group and escort them to the main headquarters. Meanwhile, the rest will be waiting for me here to finish another job.”
Although staying in this place is dangerous, but they want to be here and fight with Ark. So in the end thirty people who were considered weaker were finally forced to go on an escort mission.
In addition, he also asks Dedric and Ian to find a place where they can take care of Jay. Let the physically and mentally exhausted man rest well for some time.
After making sure everything was going well, Ark finally led the rest of his subordinates to go to where Jay was forced to go. A place where many mutated beasts were quite dangerous. Yes ...
Frontier of the middle circle and inner circle.
Sure enough, not yet at the destination, Ark and his comrades instantly heard the roar of a savage beast. After advancing for some time, they finally met the madly mutated beasts.
‘Most of them are at level 2, but there are some at level 3.’
Ark's gaze swept. Looking towards the incoming enemies, the young man immediately gave the order.
“Prepared to fight!”
“Ya, Chairman!”
People replied with a stern expression on their faces, even the weakest Scorpio among the people who came to the front row with Ark.
Looking at the hundreds of earth rat-like creatures but with the gigantic size, monstrous face, claws and a bone-like exo-skeleton tail made Ark's expression become solemn.
‘Giant Bone Mole.’
Seeing the annoying creature, Ark finally decided to draw his own sword. The young man walked forward towards the hundreds of Giant Moles.
Obviously, you want to intervene yourself so that the cleaning is immediately completed.
***
About two hours later.
Finishing the battle, Ark did not choose to immediately harvest the materials but instead returned to where Jay was resting.
Up there, Ark sees the unconscious Jay. The person also saw him return, so immediately asked about what happened after he lost consciousness.
Seeing the serious expression on Jay's face, Ark finally decided to explain.
“Not fully resolved.”
“You mean?” jay asked with furrowed brows.
“Although we tried to stop everything, but we were one step late. Other than those who stayed, a small portion of the mutated beasts rushed towards the Golden Maple Group and the Imperial Phoenix left.
Hearing Ark's explanation, Jay was immediately pensive. He clearly did not expect that things would become chaotic like this. Although they have helped, but not everything in this world they can control.
So, this kind of event should happen.
“Do you think my parents will be okay Ark?” ask Jay.
“They should be fine.” Ark nodded lightly. “Resistance force has definitely caught up and protected them. So you no longer have to worry.”
“Sgratitude.”
Jay breathed a sigh of relief. The man seemed to have let go of the heavy burden that had stuck in his heart. A few moments later, he was confused.
Seeing Jay's expression change, Ark asked, “Is there a problem?”
Jay's expression looked complicated. After a while, it finally looked at Ark while asking.
“I met with users of telekinesis ability at least level 3. With his strength and skill, he can compensate me now. Although it might not be my rival at peak condition, but he is still dangerous.
Do you think that person is the same as those cannibals?”
“How about the appearance?”
“She is a red-haired beautiful woman named Irene. The woman did not have any physical abnormalities like the cannibals, but had incredible strength. Almost equal to miracle root users.
Can he also use miracle root? However, somehow, I feel he is a bit different to us. It's just, I'm confused how to describe it.”
Jay scratched his head with a depressed expression. He was pretty sure that the person was not a miracle root user, but the man could not explain it.
“It should be similar to Crux of Shadow.”
Hearing Ark's words, not only Jay, but the expressions of the old members of Sword of Sufferings also changed.Obviously, to them the name was a problem. Although it was not impossible to deal with, it did not mean that those people were not troublesome.
“Yang is right!”
Jay immediately threw himself down. Lying on your back with a depressed expression. He really did not expect to get such an answer from Ark's mouth.
Seeing the depressed atmosphere around, Ark shook his head. He had absolutely no plans of making them depressed, but the answer as it was made them like that.
After a short pause, Ark spoke again.
“For now, we don't need to think about those people. There are other important things we need to do now.”
“Other important things?” ask Jay.
“Ya.” Ark nodded with a serious expression on his face. “You said those cannibals also have decent strength right? In addition, they managed to escape, even making mutated animals mess up. That means, they are hidden dangers.”
“You mean, instead of thinking about that woman or another group, we should think about the cannibals? Find out where they are and get things done with them immediately?”
Not only Jay, the other members also looked towards Ark with serious expressions. It seemed to be waiting for another order from its mouth. Can't wait how to track down and defeat those cannibals.
“Indeed. We better immediately clear up the problem of cannibals because it has a high possibility to cause a disaster, for example the wave of wild animals that occur not naturally.
However, there are other important things that we have to do at this time.”
Seeing Ark's serious expression, Jay tilted his head.
“What?”
Ark looked at Jay and said.
“Go to Golden Maple Group headquarters to get payment.”
