WHITE DEVIL

42 Arkkanah III

Highlight the eyes that radiated brilliance. Short hair that does not pass through the ears. A strong impression emerged from his appearance. A mighty body in a black uniform.

He was wearing a long red robe with a golden sun symbol that told him his position was at the highest level in the organization. The Deliverer.

That smile, only three people had smiles that never faded in time, the silver-haired man, the doctor, and the captain.

“Captain.” Said Arif aloud. His face looks so happy.

“During did not meet Arif, Wira. Hey what my juniors are doing in this place.” Faga hugged both of them. Let go of years of longing.

“We are looking for Full Flower.” The hero answered. His voice sounded happier.

“How great it is. You risked yourself for the Full Flower. There must be something important that you meet.” Reply Faga. His voice is always strong.

“They almost so lunch Grinsekta.” Bara told me with laughter. “Lucky I came on time. And you're a hero, dare to challenge him.”

“Challenging Grinsekta. Well we have a new soldier candidate.” Faga exclaimed proudly. His wide eyes looked at the late-goal Hero.

“I'm sure the next registration they will definitely accept you.” Faga channeled the spirit by putting a fist in front of the chest of the Hero. “I'm sure it.”

Slowly but surely a smile began to form on his premiers face.

“Mumpung me and Faga are on a rest schedule, let's continue this conversation in a more comfortable place.” Bara Suggestion.

The four of them immediately pulled over, heading for one of the resting places.

A large white tent. Inside is a long carpet that borders the ground. It's crowded and a little hot. The dozens of people inside who were talking to each other. It sounds like a bee. Some people cover their faces with a cloth in a supine position. Take nap.

They are the fighters here.

“Halo everything!” Faga said quite loudly. All eyes immediately turned towards him and greeted back. The arrival of Faga was greeted by everyone in the tent rest. As a Liberator in very famous because it is very different from other Liberators.

In people's point of view, liberators are people who have high authority and are very hard workers. They do not have time to have a conversation without direction, also they are more often out to run errands so that the existence is almost unknown to other members of the Sun Protection Force.

Few people recognize their faces.

But it is different with Faga. He's so open with anyone. Both senior and junior. Although already having the highest position in the Sun Protection Force, Faga still prioritizes communication. Keep making relationships and making others happy.

Arif was feeling a little nervous about this crowd. Moreover, all pairs of eyes immediately looked at him after staring at Faga. Surely everyone wondered who the prodigal son was next to the Deliverer.

“ Introduce all. Thisismybest friend. Arif and Wira. From now on they will help us find the Full Flower. I'm sure they won't trouble you guys.” Said Faga who then led the two to gather with the others.

In an instant Arif and Wira became the center of attention. Wira's thugs face was in the spotlight, some strange whispers about her. Likewise with Arif, his birthmark continues to be noticed by everyone.

It's a little uncomfortable.

“Halo greetings, my name is Martin.” One of the men approached Arif, giving him his right hand. Arif.

“I Bella.” A blonde woman followed Martin.

“You can call me Jazk.” Tall man with mohawk hairstyle.

Beside Bella appeared another woman who introduced herself. “Salam. I'm Avin. May we be good friends.”

Arif tried to calm down in this nervousness. After stabilizing mentally, Arif experienced one by one his new friends. In a short time he was able to adapt to the atmosphere there. Talk, smile at each other, and connect stories. These are the happiest times.

Outside the crowd Bara and Faga were seen talking to each other. Bara put his arms behind his head while Faga crossed both arms in front of his chest, always in a dashing and cool position.

“Who would have thought this could happen.” Faga.

“Yapc. At first I doubted Arif and Wira could have many friends because of their background. Haha. Justjust wonderful. I'll fight harder tomorrow.”

“Agree, Bara. Me and my team will soon get the Full Flower.”

“Bara I want to ask. Why is Arkkana City textured in rocks but various plants can grow?” Hero asked. He doesn't look like he's a talking buddy.

“You observed yes. Hmmmmm....I heard this story from my senior. So there used to be an imaginary figure dubbed the Dark Lord. He was only in dreams. The Dark Lord therefore tried various ways to get out of the dream world and two hundred years ago he almost succeeded. The Dark Lord's Resurrection brought destruction and doom. Luckily, seven chosen heroes manage to prevent his awakening and return him to the dream world. Arkkana City was a city that was affected by its power. And here's the result.”

The hero shows no exaggerated expression of Bara's story.

The night came and the entire search team gathered. The search this time was completed without scolding the victim. Only the wounds are small to them. Everyone sat in a circle with a serious look. The atmosphere there felt down. The meeting was held that night.

The main discussion is about mapping the area, the strategy to fight the Grinsecta, the plan for the next two-three steps and about Arif and Wira as non-Msun Protection Force members who suddenly got permission to find the Full Flower.

Meeting heated. Many disagree because surely both will hinder. The final decision is Wira and Arif remain in the team although there are still some who do not want to accept the existence of both.

@@@

Early in the morning, before the sun was seen everyone was awake. The condition of the white tent was instantly bustling, everyone was busy with preparations. Arif who stared amazed all that. Their motivation for obtaining the Full Flower was huge.

The search team which now consisted of thirty-two people was divided into three groups. Each group explored three different places.

The search area is divided by three according to the number of groups. First is the central region of Arkkana City. This area is the most overgrown variety of vegetation. Grinsekta is quite rare to find here.

The third region is the bottom or bottom. The team in charge of searching here is in direct contact with the land of Arkkana City. The area was very dark, there was barely any light. Like crossing caves. Very few grow, and some even evolve to adjust to circumstances. In this region is most prone to meet with Grinsekta.

Arif and Wira are in the Faga group. Both got rations to cross the middle area.

Each member with a steady gaze had prepared themselves in line. The hard day is back. Everyone began to step up, carrying out tasks according to their respective regions.

Arif could feel the extremely dense atmosphere of adventurers.

“Bag yourself. Don't worry wounds, I can heal your wounds.” Screaming doctor from medical tent. He seems to be busy taking care of patients whose injuries can make mental collapse.

“Each doctor.” Arif replied by waving a hand. Arif turned around and walked with the group.

The dangerous journey began, although Arif was still a little hesitant he was trying to strengthen every stage.

In Arif's eyes the tenth member of the search team was so incredible. Their auras were extremely strong and there was not the slightest fear on the face. Standing near them gives Arif a sense of security and comfort. They are also very focused on their tasks.

“Great yes friends with Doctor Jago.” Bella said, because from now on she kept quiet she wanted to tell a little story. Blonde girl with mixed face between western and eastern descent. Blaster, that's Bella.

“I used to be a closed person. But because of the services of a doctor I can be this kind of person. I think the doctor is great. For the Sun Protection Force, what is the doctor's position?” Reply Arif.

“His name is legendary_”Bella exaggerates her tone, very splashy. “His service is very big. Because he was free from the deadly plague because he had many members of this organization who survived. I'm one of his fans.” Bella explained excitedly.

“Doctors Who Conquer Death. As soon as the people in the organization call it.” This time Avin.

“All, please attention.” After quite a long walk, from in front of Faga said out loud. As a leader, there are a few things he will say.

All steps are stopped. Eleven pairs of eyes stared at him, ears listening carefully.

It was an area with open ceilings. Around them are trees and thick shrubs. There are two rivers on different sides. Tree animals appear to jump from one branch to another.

In front of the twelve people is seen a dark downhill road and two roads turn in different directions.

“As per last night's meeting, we will slightly change lanes. From here on we will choose the path downhill, towards the darker and more dangerous areas. Be carefull. Stay connected and never let fear take hold of you. Shake your hearts. We definitely won.” Faga making a big speech. Every word he spoke seemed to light up.

Arif never thought the captain would turn into such a great figure.

“YAAAA!” The whole group answered loudly.

A dark path was chosen. Three people turned on the oil lamp for lighting. The road there is a little slippery. The air is cooler and the plants are less. Only moss grows on high stone walls. There is a river there.

“Always watch for steps, soldier!” Faga exclaimed loudly.

DUARS

From the high walls came the sound of explosions. The rocks began to collapse from where the sound originated.

DUAR

Two explosive sounds followed from different directions. Tension fills the body, adrenaline rushes strong.

“Shape formation, prepare weapons!”

The ten people immediately formed a circular formation, Arif and Wira were in the center of the circle. Four men from the team immediately took out his long-barreled firearm. Insert mezium powder and bullets. Eyes immediately aimed at the enemy position.

The other six instantly drew his sword. The sound of swipe blades with scabbard gives its own spirit to the holder. Two fists immediately grasped tightly. A sharp sword eye pointed forward.

From each of the places where the rocks fell appeared three giant figures. Darkness hinders their existence.

The creature roared loudly and ran in a hit position. Their weight made the ground beneath Arif shake.

“Three Gransekta approaching from different direction. They're besieging us.” Say one of them gives information.

“Stay calm. Do as usual.” Reply Faga.

“Good.” The nine people answered in unison.

The shocks under Arif's feet were getting stronger and stronger. The fear of dying soon fills the soul. Arif fell helplessly. His face was pale. The hero was better, but he could not sound the fear that now rested on his face.

“Do not worry Arif.” Said Faga in a loud voice, matching the sound of the three footsteps of Grinsekta. Arif's anxious gaze stared at Faga's dashing back.

“We are not here to die, but to get the Full Flower. Trust us and conquer your fears. There is no enemy more worthy of your defeat than yourself!”

DUM

From behind the darkness came three giant figures. His form has been perfectly seen, the Rhino beetle Grinsekta.

The jet-black body was like a shield. Stand with two sturdy legs while the body is slightly bent. His face was hideous, with one giant horn above his lips and two horns above his ears.

Six people stomped their feet, jumping high. The blade of the sword swung rapidly, splitting the air and separating the life from the body in an instant.
