"Run, take our command ship and leave imdiately; the command ship must remain absolutely safe!"
It was evident that the Frenzy Barbarian Commander wasn't speaking to his subordinates.
He was now directing the Titan Giants.
One could see that the Titan Giant slowly bent its body down and lifted the heavy command ship as if holding a pillow.
While the body of the juvenile Titan Giant was imnse, it still paled in comparison to the grown Titan Giants.
Even now, although it could clasp the command ship with one hand, it seed to move much more sluggishly than when it first erged.
...
[Location: 5 kiloters outside Lancaster Swamp]
Kael turned to look at Flandre and the Lion Heart Battle Group and the professional corps sent from Fransburg behind her, shaking his head and saying,
"See, I've told you before... Overall, there's no big problem, no need to join the battle imdiately.
If there really were a problem, I'd definitely be more heartbroken than you."
As he said this, he spread his hands open and showed a relaxed, delighted smile,
"Let's go, let's see how my subordinates will wrap this up in the end."
Among the personnel dispatched by the Lion Heart Battle Group this ti, the leader was none other than the Fox Knight, whom Kael was extrely familiar with, one of the main people in charge of the Bronze Cross.
Now watching the water droplets piercing the sky in the distance and the intermittent sound of the Titan Giant, he was sowhat taken aback:
"You little rascal, you must have bitten off more than you could chew during the last dungeon raid, no? How is it that now even Holy Sanctuary Level beings are popping up?"
Kael spread his hands and didn't speak.
After all, many things in the dungeon were not easy to explain, and if he did, it might cause misunderstandings.
For example, why he had garnered the favor of the Evil God Shirek... The Prince of Lies, detested by gods and devils alike, was to so extent more annoying to the major kingdoms than other Evil Gods.
Perhaps it's because the kingdoms, which always enjoyed engaging in both secretive and overt plots, were more prone to falling into the conspiracies woven by the Prince of Lies?
Thus, Kael chose to remain silent.
Soon, the group arrived at the edge of the Great Swamp.
As they were all professionals, after a brief sprint, most of them still had plenty of stamina left, only a few Mages who were weaker in physical strength seed to be gasping for breath.
But that was it.
Upon arriving at the battlefield, they were stunned to see that although the equipnt on the Rangers was relatively poor, the aura exuding from each of them was indeed enough to make them question life itself.
Before coming here, all they had heard from the traveling rchants in the Royal Capital about Lancaster was that it was a "gold-digging spot."
There was a terrifying potential for developnt that far surpassed the usual frontier territories.
Whether it be those industries that burgeoned relying on a large number of Undead, or the vast land rich in resources, it all genuinely deserved the title of a jewel in the border areas, in the eyes of the rchants.
Even so, they still had no clear concept of how vast Lancaster was.
Not until they were transported directly to Titan City via the Royal Capital's Teleportation Array, seeing the solemn, dignified, and neatly kept Titan City, they were utterly shocked.
Building such a city through normal ans would probably take decades or even a century.
The first thing they thought of was the rare item "Town Base," which would appear only after so Lords had conquered a Dungeon.
On one hand, they marveled at Kael's prowess in dungeon raids, and on the other hand, their curiosity about Lancaster grew even more.
Until...
As they rushed non-stop from Titan City towards the invaded area of the border, their shock grew increasingly greater.
Why has this territory developed so quickly?
Why are the transportation roads and such already completed in this territory?
Why is the area of this land so vast that it took almost 10 hours just for the prolonged travel ti as they made their way towards the territory's boundary?
Now, before they had even had ti to feel sufficiently shocked, they beheld a mushroom cloud rising into the sky at the border of the Great Swamp.
At that mont, their expressions turned like this:
ヾ(｡ꏿ﹏ꏿ)ﾉﾞ
Then, they witnessed with their own eyes those Rangers being tugged by Sli threads, swiftly moving over the swamp, hunting Barbarians.
And the group of Elf Rangers who seed to have gone slightly mad, laughing manically while performing chilling reaping...
It might be a bit embarrassing to say, but they actually felt a bit redundant standing there on the shore.
Fox took a silent glance at Old White beside him, who looked like a statue, unmoved and not willing to deal with anyone.
He then looked towards the Elf Ranger perched atop the canopy of the Golden Tree, coldly shooting arrows that could blast through sound barriers.
And finally, he turned his gaze towards Kael, who had also ascended to Holy Sanctuary Level.
For a mont, his face showed a relieved smile:
"Such formidable Youth! When I was at your age, forget about participating in such a battlefield...
Even going to so dungeons systematically under the academy's guidance and performing well-practiced exercises was considered pretty good."
