Episode 071 Hunter Rescue Operation

As I watched Jack Miller’s actions, I wondered what kind of character he might be.

“You are relaxed. Aren’t these hunters belonging to the Guard?”

At my question, Jack hardened his expression and said.

“Garfield, 30 years old, firearms master. Sonia, 25 years old, Frost Mage. Bren, 25 years old, fire mage. Neria, 32 years old, firearms master. Neria, the team leader, was the first victim to request rescue and took time to evacuate the team.”

Jack’s expression, as he spoke with a firm face, did not waver at all.

Finally, I felt like I knew who he was.

“This provocation will pass. If you were the leader too, you would understand.”

I got it very well.

Jack looks laid-back because he’s trying to make it look that way.

That would be the best thing for Jack in the commander’s seat to do.

Jack must not be shaken so that the subordinates around him will not collapse.

“How long have they been imprisoned?”

Having figured out Jack, I immediately asked what I needed.

“It’s 36 hours on our side.”

“Then it must have been quite a while inside the gate. What are the odds of you surviving?”

Everyone knew that time was running differently inside the gate and in our world.

“I’m looking at it at 100%.”

“Is that a pretty high survival rate?”

“Even if they lost Neria, they still have Garfield. He’s from SWAT. Besides, they are all A-class, and we have state-of-the-art technology.”

At the same time, Jack handed over the pad and showed the vital signs of the team members.

The hearts of the three survivors were still beating.

“All of them are alive.”

Then the words are different.

The level of the monsters on the screen was quite A.

What that meant was that if they could provide support, they could turn the tide and close the gate while saving them.

“What are you going to do? Judging by the look on his face, it looks like he has a plan.”

“Yes, there is.”

The main threat to this gate was the Wyvern.

“First of all, there is no time, so I will explain the strategy while moving.”

“I look forward to good results. Andrew, support them.”

“Follow me.”

We left the director’s office with Andrew’s guidance.

Garfield, Sonia, and Bren were gathered in a dense forest.

They looked around and talked, their voices muted.

“Garfield, what now?”

“Sonia, don’t worry. Because I requested support from headquarters. You know the rules, right?”

“know. It’s more of a problem you know. Was our situation communicated well? The wyvern bastard broke the drone.”

“Of course it was delivered well.”

“Bren, how do you know that?”

Sonia asked in surprise at her twin brother Bren’s confident words.

“It was a video that was being delivered in real time. And didn’t you know that all of our videos are recorded at headquarters?”

“then… … .”

Bren opened his mouth after checking his watch.

“By now, the team should have been formed. The question is, when will the rescue team get here?”

“In the meantime, we have to survive somehow. So everyone… … .”

It was when Garfield continued to speak and try to cheer him on.

Kiruk!

A small monster, a kobold, spotted them and roared.

Hearing his voice, the surrounding monsters began to flock.

“sh*t. Everyone get ready to bounce.”

Garfield stepped in front of the twins as he watched the group of monsters.

“you?”

“I’ll follow right after you. Don’t worry, just give me a signal and run.”

The twins looked at Garfield sadly as he spoke while reloading their rifles.

“Who is dying? What’s wrong with your expression?”

“If you say the same lines as Neria, you’ll feel uneasy.”

“At that time, Neria couldn’t help it either.”

“okay. I just can’t go either. Give me a signal.”

As Sonia used mana to create blocks of ice, Bren also prepared fire magic.

Seeing the two of them, Garfield grinned and shouted.

“now!”

At Garfield’s signal, the twins’ magic and his gun fired simultaneously.

*

What we saw after entering the gate was the monsters surrounding the forest.

clap.

Headquarters agents who followed us aimed their guns at the group of monsters.

“Just give me orders. I will attack right away.”

A total of 30 agents were assisted.

These were regular agents, not hunters.

It wasn’t that firearms didn’t harm the monsters at all.

It could not do damage to some powerful monsters, but it was applied to monsters below C class the same as humans.

I told the team leader in command of the agents.

“Please do as you prepared.”

“yes.”

He deployed the agents according to the operation I told him when he came here.

We slipped out to the side where the agents were stationed, and soon after, Andrew directed.

“A salvo.”

When his command was given, bullets rained down on the monsters with a tremendous sound.

And after the shooting stopped, the monsters surrounding the forest started looking at us.

“This is enough. Everyone, get out of the gate and wait.”

“Withdraw! hurry!”

I prepared to fight while the agent’s commander took them to the gate.

“Gilliant, take care of the wyvern.”

“Don’t worry.”

The firepower poured into the monsters was to turn their eyes to us.

In that state, magic could set fire to the forest.

That makes it harder to save people in the forest.

oh oh oh!

One of the monsters that looked back at us, a troll with the largest body, cried out, and the monsters all started running towards us.

pop!

It was then.

Smoke began to rise from the depths of the forest.

It was also white smoke, not black smoke.

It was like fog.

“I see you over there. Min-young and Su-yeon go there. This is where I will draw attention.”

“okay.”

“I will follow.”

Saying that, Andrew took out two sticks and held them up.

Sparks were flying from the triple pole he was holding.

“please.”

I smiled at Andrew and activated the link.

It wasn’t even a dozen of them, the number I could see was at least 50.

Most of them were A-class monsters.

It was a dungeon that the four of us could never clear.

If it wasn’t for the use of guest skills, I should have gotten out of this dungeon right away.

Even so, the wyvern hadn’t appeared yet.

Kyaaah!

The front row were small goblins or kobolds.

When dealing with such a large number, I definitely liked magic skills with a large effect range rather than melee skills.

I calculated the distance to them and began to summon the elements of the earth.

Damn it!

I did my best to dig deep and wide in the ground.

thud!

I knew it. They couldn’t beat the speed at which they came running and began to fall or stumble under the ground I dug.

“Gilliant, now!”

Gilliant spewed fire from the sky at the monsters who fell through the cracks in the ground.

Roaring!

The monsters were burned at once by Giliant’s firepower, and a wall of fire began to spread along the cracks in the grassland.

I used the element of wind there to spread the flames towards the monsters.

It was safe because it was in a different direction from the forest.

*

omg. omg.

Three foreigners were running through the forest breathing heavily.

Behind them, small monsters were chasing at high speed.

“Fire Arrow!”

“Ice field!”

Bren’s flaming arrow pierced exactly one guy’s forehead.

As Sonia’s freezing magic froze the area, the chasing people lost their balance and fell.

“By the way, isn’t it a bit noisy outside the forest? Could it be that the rescue team has arrived?”

“I hope so. oh no i can’t I can’t run anymore.”

Sonia, who has the weakest stamina, sat down on the ground first.

The monsters chasing them were still struggling on the ice.

Taang-

said Garfield, who had accurately targeted and killed them one by one.

“Seeing that the big ones aren’t chasing them, I think it’s true that someone is fighting outside.”

“We should let you know that we are here… … .”

Bren said to Sonia, who was worried that the rescue team might not know where they were.

“You know?”

“How do you know that?”

“Because of the magic that Sonia and I shot earlier, the steam rose high into the sky. If you saw that vapor, you would know where we are.”

“Aren’t we already far away from there?”

“If you’re not an idiot, you’ll know we’re in combat. Shall we go straight there?”

As Bren said, Andrew, who was running to the place where he could see the steam, turned.

“Andrew? Aren’t we supposed to go over there?”

In response to Soo-yeon’s question, Andrew pointed to one place.

“See that tree over there that’s broken?”

“yes.”

“The traces of the battle are still visible. We fought while moving.”

“If you follow the trail, there are people to rescue.”

Oh Soo-yeon had also been trained as a search party under her father, so she understood right away.

“Yes, it is. I have to go in this direction to meet them.”

“… … Bless you!”

Seol Min-young gave a buff to Oh Soo-yeon and Andrew, who were running side by side.

“I do my best. Because it made me go faster.”

“thank you.”

Andrew hit and ran, followed by Soo-yeon and Min-young.

Keruk?

A kobold struggling on the ice sheet instinctively turned its head away from the momentary sense of danger.

And soon, with his eyes wide open, he was hit by Andrew’s three-dagger and fell backwards.

“Ouch! Here’s an ice sheet! Slow down!”

Andrew, who flew the kobold, instantly slipped on the ice beneath his feet and shouted at the two people following him.

Seol Min-young and Oh Soo-yeon saw it and entered a place where there was no ice sheet.

“Andrew!”

At Garfield’s cry, recognizing Andrew, the two groups looked at each other.

*

Kieeck!

In the midst of the flames, the monsters began to scream each other.

“Gilliant, how are you? Wyvern?”

[Not seen yet. There must be a nest for it somewhere.]

Gillian, who was watching the overall situation from the sky, immediately informed me of the situation in the forest.

[First of all, the team members met safely. Coming out of the forest.]

When I turned my head, I could really see the team members coming out to the side of the forest and running this way.

And then, a black shadow flew up from behind them.

It was the size of an eight-story building.

[It’s finally out.]

“everyone! hurry! It’s a wyvern behind you!”

I shouted with all my might.

The team members who looked back soon began to run, speeding up even more with contemplative faces.

“Gilliant!”

[Going.]

Anyway, flying is faster than running.

Gilliant started flying toward the Wyvern.

kong! I’m sorry!

At that time, there were guys running through the flames.

There were five lizardmen, six giant wolves, and a troll running behind them wielding a large club.

“Seojun!”

Minyoung’s voice was heard from afar. The distance between the monsters was closer than the distance between the teammates.

I smiled to reassure my teammates.

“Hey you crazy bastard, are you laughing right now?!”

Soo-yeon shouted, but I looked at the monsters and found the person who would be most helpful in the current situation and made a link.
