60 – Something’s wrong?

night in the dark.

The leading hunter guilds are taking a break with their encampment at the top of the high hills

The hunters belonging to the 8th and 25th guilds had maintained a spirited attitude ever since the operation began.

Since the beginning of the operation, they have been able to easily win every battle against the Abyss.

Although they knew the strength and fear of the Abyss well through experience, nevertheless, they were feeling quite uplifted while watching the guys fall down more easily than expected.

The supply line had grown quite long as they had come all the way from Pyongyang, and the fatigue of their allies had accumulated quite a bit, too. Nevertheless, their morale was sky-high.

As a result of their successive victories, sooner or later they will be able to recover the entire Korean peninsula, which was their long-cherished wish, and even the territory of the old Goguryeo, which is said to have been the long-cherished wish of their ancestors.

As much as the country of China was wiped clean, it became the territory of the monster Abyss, and it was a situation where it could be properly declared as the territory of the Republic of Korea if only a flag was planted.

Like that, at the thought that they would be the protagonists of the long history that they had been learning at school since childhood, the Hunters were feeling their heart overflowing every moment even in the midst of fatigue.

“If we continue like this, we will be able to cross the Yalu River in about three days.”

“First, march to that place, then rest for a while, and finally go to the Manchurian plains?”

“Yeah right! We are no one else! That’s what makes history of glory! We are doing with our own hands what none of the greats in textbooks have done!”

Hunters who look forward to the battle that will continue tomorrow in such intense excitement.

So, in order to relieve fatigue again and bring about a brilliant victory in tomorrow’s battle, they began to go to bed one by one.

at that time..

“emergency! emergency!”

“The Abyss are coming! Power wake up! Form a defensive formation!”

“What.. what is it?”

“Chit.. It must be at this time..”

Right before going to sleep, it was the most fatigued time of the day for them too.

Furthermore, due to the battles so far, the fatigue had accumulated to a considerable level.

However, despite this, they raised their heavy bodies and immediately picked up their weapons.

At this moment, the place they are in is a battlefield, and their occupation is a soldier.

And the soldier was ready to fight the enemy at any moment.

Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm

Just like that, the hunters of the vanguard pick up weapons and form a defensive formation.

Although they were tired, they thought that they would be able to defeat the enemy this time without difficulty, as they had won consecutively so far.

“Fire flares!”

-bang! bang! bang!

Flares explode in the sky and begin to cut through the darkness.

This served as a signal not only to grasp the location of the enemies, but also to clearly inform the allies located behind the main unit of the situation here.

Immediately after that, countless Abyss began to appear in the lowlands.

The vast majority of them were common low- and mid-level Abyss, but among them, there were also high-level Abyss with special appearances.

“Tch.. this time it will be a little difficult!”

“don’t worry! Since I contacted my allies, salvation will surely come!”

“The small talk ends there! All ready for battle! Don’t let them cross these hills!”

The quantity and quality of the Abyss he could see before his eyes was certainly on par with those of the past.

Unlike the time when only the middle and lower classes, and only moderate numbers appeared all the time, now what they see in front of their eyes is a force that is difficult to deal with with their own power.

It would have been quite dangerous if they had not preoccupied the highlands that were easy to defend.

Like that, feeling the instinctive fear running away from sleep, the hunters calmly waited for the enemies to come within range while waiting for instructions from the guild master and lieutenant.

“launch!”

-Tadadadadadang!!!

-Quaguaguagwang!!

Countless bullets and bombs fired at the same time the order was given.

Although it was a surprise attack at night, the hunters of the vanguard based on the advantageous terrain and overwhelming firepower began to block the Abyss that came like the sea.

But..

“Cra la la la rock!!!”

“damn!”

Advanced Abyss who jump over hills and attack hunters.

Contrary to the middle and low-class guys being helplessly attacked, they quickly closed the distance and came in, dodging bullets with quick movements.

Werewolves who resemble werewolves, and Richard who reminds us of lions.

They were few in number compared to the whole, but they were quickly digging into the formations of the hunters and inflicting the most damage.

“Keee

“Stop them! The sniper team in the rear only targets the advanced Abyss!”

Even if the senior Abyss penetrates the formation and kills only one or two allies or renders them unable to fight, the war situation becomes extremely aggravated.

Accordingly, the Hunters in charge of sniping from the rear and the S-class Hunters, who were both commanding and defending allies in the field, were doing their best to block the access of the upper Abyss somehow.

However, despite all their efforts to defend themselves, their faces began to deteriorate.

As time passed, the Abyss were only increasing, rather than decreasing.

Everytime you fire a flare, you see…

Every time they saw the black waves running endlessly through the forest, they could feel how serious the crisis was in their current situation.

And at the same time… one question they started asking automatically…

That is… maybe the battles so far have been simple bait.

The thought passed through their heads that it might be a plan to consume a small force to lure the enemies, and through this to wipe out the tired enemies who have flowed deep into their territory.

‘Stand.. no way.. no. No matter how much it is, it won’t be like that. The opponent is Abyss, right? They’re monsters no different from beasts, how could they have that much intelligence…’

Considering the habits and intelligence of the Abyss they had experienced so far, it was impossible.

However, it is also true that it is difficult to explain this current situation other than that.

That was the time when the hunters of the 8th and 25th guilds were doing their best to fight with doubts.

– Kwa-gwa-gwa-gwang!!!

Loud explosions from the side.

As a result, the faces of the advance team, who were feeling a sense of crisis, began to turn bright.

“!”

“Ah.. finally!”

At the same time, the hunters, feeling relieved, turned their gaze to that direction.

There, as they expected, the appearances of the main hunter guilds who came here to help began to appear.

“All-arms attack! Wipe out all the Abyss!”

Those who push in from the side with the Hunters and start to slaughter the Abyss.

The hunters of the 8th and 25th guilds were able to recognize at once who they were at the head of the captain of the main unit.

“That person…”

“Guild Master Isena… it seems like she ran very hard as soon as she received the request.”

At the forefront, she wields a rose cutter and cuts the Abyss to pieces.

At the same time, the other two S-class Hunters are following her. Choi Yu-jin and Seo Ji-yoon were paving the way for their allies while slaughtering the Abyss that were gathered like ants.

Following them, the troops of the main force started wiping out the Abyss without hesitation.

The unfavorable war situation was quickly reversed thanks to the timely support of allies, and the hunters in the advance party began to attack the enemies in front of them in relief.

at that time..

-Kwaaa!!-

The next moment, a huge cry that seemed to shake all directions came from somewhere.

The moment I heard that cry that resounded like a wind instrument and made me feel something eerie,

The offensive of the Abyss, which had been flocking like the time of ants, stopped just like a lie.

and..

“yes?”

“what?”

The next moment, the Abyss began retreating into the forest as if the tide was flowing.

And… the moment they saw this, the hunters’ faces began to feel deep embarrassment.

Under normal circumstances, it was natural for the enemy to realize the unfavorable situation and run away.

However… at this moment, the enemy they were dealing with was not a human capable of such ideal thinking.

Abyss possess intelligence comparable to that of beasts, and know only to run forward by relying on their instincts when they move in the grip of madness.

The fact that such guys… even while thousands of them, not just one or two, were caught in madness, they could choose to retreat…

It began to give them a heavy shock along with doubts.

‘Something is strange… The movements reminiscent of previous tactics and this time as well. It’s not clear, but I feel something ominous…’

The time when the guild master of the 8th guild was struggling for a while in the anxiety of being one in a while…

“yes?”

“what? I think something is going on…”

The next moment, because of what they could see, the two guild masters decided to go down the hill.

what they see in front of their eyes.

It was… Isena, the guild master of the 28th guild, who was arguing with the other guild masters at this moment.
