The Goddess Of War

Chapter 137 - Dangers Around the Gate (3)

"But, this is a B rank Dungeon, right?"

Gina shook her head. "Not since the dinosaurs and the creatures on the hill have been Dungeon dwellers,"

“The pink-skinned monsters holding those bows and spears had extremely powerful magic energy. I don't know who rides Ty-Rex, but those three crimson-skinned creatures are much stronger.” Gina Sahut.

“Sial..., will we die here?”

“While we have just started our career.”.

There were words of despair coming from the mouths of the Hunters after hearing the explanation from their guild leader just now.

"Calm down. I'm not saying it to scare. I just want us to be careful" Gina said as she watched her colleagues misinterpret her words earlier.

“T-but... What's the reason these monsters are monitoring us? Why don't they just shoot arrows when they see us quiet like this? Should be very good position to shoot from up there.”

"Yes. Do they have intelligence like humans? Are they really going to think about monitoring us?"

Gina looked at the two people who had just spoken while sighing softly. "The two of you have not seen how even orc witches are so intelligent and can actually be spoken to," Gina said in her heart. He would not tell them the secret.

However, if he did not say the reason, they would definitely continue to question his explanation earlier. But, Gina preferred not to say the reason that the monsters might be about to play tricks on them, for fear of mentally knocking down her comrades.

'Well, this is my challenge as guild leader.'

"We'll get down first. Raptors and flying monsters are coming" Gina said, without answering any of the questions.

All team members obey the order and get down.

Gus Stevin looked at Gina in awe as he knew Gina could sense the magic energy of monsters from a distance away, unlike him who only estimated the time of arrival of monsters.

'The SS ranked hunter does have an incredible sense status.'

“Could they want to hold us hostage?”

Everyone turned to Hunter who had just said that sentence.

Gina was surprised by the question. 'Switch' is a type of word choice similar to the word 'play' that could have knocked the team mentally.

“If it is like that..," Philip began to speak, giving his idea, "We need to shut up and hold them here while one of us goes out to tell you what happened to Hunter out there. They can ask for help from other cities.” Said Philip who then turned to the left right as if looking for the approval of his colleagues.

"You're right. We also still have master Jung and avatar hunter, right? They can definitely help. As far as I know, they don't have a raid schedule either." One of the Hunters.

"Yes. Only Mr. Bimo is conducting a raid." Another Hunter.

At that moment, the Raptor and Pterodactyl again flashed in the distance and exited the Dungeon.

After seeing the monsters, the Hunters finally discussed the idea that Philip had given earlier.

"Gina, you still don't have any ideas?" ask Gus.

Gina shook her head, "We just have to wait."

"Wait what? Master Jung and the hunter avatar came to the rescue? Do we have time for that?"

"Gus, you don't know. We don't have a choice."

"Gina, why don't we just try it? We can run while protecting each other." Davina who was near them also gave advice.

Gina lowered her head, banging her forehead softly behind the helmet onto the ground in front of her.

"I would also think like that if I had never entered an A rank Dungeon." Gina said slowly.

"What's? You ever..."

At that moment, two Hunters suddenly stood up. They were two comrades who happened to be accepted as guild members.

The two Hunters instantly ran over quickly, using all the remaining Mana energy they had.

However, just a few steps away they left the team members, their heads shattered even without them noticing.

Crassshhhh!!! Nannnggg!!!

The arrows smashed the heads of the two Hunters and penetrated far away until they smashed the rocks in the distance.

All the Hunters who saw the incident had the same reaction. They could only gape without saying a word.

Everyone was silent, except Gina.

"That's what I mean by we have to wait." The muttered Gina who again banged her head against the ground, this time even harder.

Gina was even too late to notice the attack and could not protect the two poor Hunters. He could not help anything when a Hunter had already lost such a head.

A monster that had the power equivalent to an S rank Hunter knew that a person who possessed healing magic would be able to save the person affected by an attack even if the attack penetrated the heart.

However, not if the heart and head are destroyed instantly exposed to an attack.

Therefore also Gina finally realized why Anna always smashed the heads of her opponents. Not because he was cruel, but it was done so that his opponent could not be cheated again by their herd.

"Chairman... What do we do?"

"Chairman, don't you have an idea?"

"Chairman..."

"Calm down." Gina suddenly got up and sat down crouching with one of her leg knees resting on the ground, "We just have to wait. Let's see what happens next. If they suddenly attack, then we run while protecting each other. But, if they are still monitoring us under these circumstances, it would be best if we keep quiet first while waiting for help.” Sahut Gina, say his opinion.

"It turns out this was the reason why Anna asked us to practice more before going to the entire Dungeon outside the city. If we can't get away from here, we don't deserve to fight alongside him and the Orcs and Elves." Thought Gina, realizing why Anna always asked them to practice in illegal raid without her interference.

'But, where exactly would a girl as young as her be able to have all those fighting ideas and experiences?'

While Gina was still thinking of ideas to escape from the monster threat on the hill, she finally came to a realization as she sensed their movements.

The pink-skinned monster that did not hold the bow began to move down the hill.

“K-chairman.., m-they... m-they move..” said one Hunter while pointing towards the hill.

"Yes. I saw it," said Gina who then sighed softly while cursing in her heart, “Sial! I don't even have an idea yet so we can get away without any casualties.”

Because there was no other choice, Gina finally gave one way that she could think of, although she was sure there might be casualties because of it.

"Tanker, take the position on the right," Gina ordered the three Tank-type Hunters to stand at the nearest spot of the monsters. After the three Tankers were at the spot he requested, Gina stood next to them.

Gina then pointed to her left, "The others take positions on my left."

After everyone was in their positions, Gina again gave the order. "Now, we will move to the gate with a small run. Tanker, protect the team if their pedestrian forces attack. I'll protect us all from the arrows,"

"Remember, no one goes before me until it's beyond the reach of my protective magic."

All Hunter was silent, listening to the strategy that Gina was giving.

"My Mana energy probably won't be enough to protect all of us getting to the gate, even though the actual gate distance is already less than two hundred meters. But...," Gina took a deep breath before continuing her sentence. "I hope there will be many survivors."

Hearing the last sentence, everyone became even more tense. They finally tried to focus on being able to follow the strategy that Gina had just given.

"Let's move now."
