Erick stood in a blind spot which was not far away from them and observed the people in front of him.

From what he saw, there were ten or so mbers which looked like a decent group.

.....

In the group, 4 of them are won and the rest are n. The youngest in the group looked like he was in his 20s and the oldest looked like he was in his mid-40s.

The oldest-looking man was giving orders so from how everybody followed his command, he looked like a competent leader whom everybody had their trust on.

Even though they looked like they had a disadvantage over the hideous-looking organisms, they also kept themselves from getting into the corner or letting those organisms surround them.

They were fully using the weakness of these organisms against them so they won’t get overwheld by the horde.

Erick sat silently on a rock and heightened his senses to listen to their voices so he could slowly learn their language and try to understand it to not feel awkward after eting with them.

Erick, at first, wasn’t able to make out what they were talking about but he slowly picked up their new words and made use of his brain which has a massive amount of information stored inside.

The group kept moving in a certain direction, Erick guessed that they had so kind of plan or sothing so as a stranger he didn’t show himself yet and kept trying to learn their language.

After hours passed, the group ca to a halt in a large garden-type of broken building or more like a castle.

Erick had now basically learned a little of their language and can now understand simple words.

“Leader Shun! How we are supposed to find the place, we only got a map before this shit happened so nobody knows what changes happen with that marked location so now finding would be hard!” One of the n in the group with a military dress clad with multiple different weapons all over his body asked the leader of the group.

The leader with Shun’s last na has a similar attire and he also has two or three fla thrower-like things on his back.

“Rember Chowan! No matter what, we must find that place and retrieve the data so we can save our families and can give them a proper future!” Leader Shun looked at the man who asked and replied with a strong blazing determination which affected the rest of the people in the group.

“Yes, Uncle Shun! We have to do it or die trying!” A woman wearing a loafer with a slit at the bottom with an upper shirt and wearing military-style knee and elbow protectors, said out loud showing her determination to go through the dangerous task. She also tightened her hold on her gun, looking resolute to bleed out for this important mission.

“Hey...hey, No need to make this mission sound like we are on the last mission. Common, Old man Shun! You are making the mood of everyone depressed!” A woman standing beside her friend listening and looking at the depressing atmosphere around everyone comnted and glared at leader Shun for this.

The woman is wearing pants and a t-shirt which is very handy when doing agile movents. She also had the sa type of knee and elbow protectors on her as the first woman.

The last woman in the group just had a sad look on her for a mont before returning to a resolute one. She also has the sa simple pants and tight-fitting shirt with protectors on the knees and elbows.

Everyone in the group had the sa resolute look in their eyes and accepted that this might be their last mission.

“Cough...cough! Okay...okay! Enough with this depressed mood, let’s move on to the task at hand. Looks like we have to deal with another group of malice creatures!” Leader Shun coughed and fastened his pace a little and tried to look for sothing to change the topic and surely he found the right target to go out a little so he pointed to the group.

As they were talking, they were also moving at a moderate speed so they reached a region with a small forest in sight right after crossing the broken castle.

The malice creatures this ti were just resting or more like snacking on the tree from the base.

They look like Mushroom Organisms, mostly called by fungus nas. Whatever they touch would dissolve over ti in molecules, just like a fungus Organism does.

“Phew, these aren’t as annoying as previous ones and we also have the option of avoiding them as they won’t move as long as those trees are still standing. So what does Leader Shun think about this!” A man sighed in relief confirming that this ti the malice Organisms are manageable and they also have other options they can take so he asked Leader Shun how he wants to proceed from here.

“No, we can’t avoid them as it might take longer if we take a detour. We don’t have much ti to linger here and we need to pass from here so we have to eliminate them!” Leader Shun shook his head and said with a solid reason which left no room for anyone to interject.

“Yeah, we do need to hurry up, we are running low on supplies!” Another man said with a worried face wearing light clothes with a heavy backpack on his back.

So once they made sure that they needed to use the route and then everyone got into the action.

“Rember guys, you need to cut them from the ground and detach them from the tree then after that you can burn them to crisp!” A man with a tactical suit said holding a sharp blade with both hands as he advanced towards the first fungus organism, with his quick movent he slashed the tree bark to which the fungus organism was attached and then stepped aside, ducking a little to dodge the spray of goo from the fungus organism. He managed to slice it from the ground and just as he was done with it, he put the blade in the back of the scabbard and caught the flathrower. After that, he showers the organism with a hot flaming bath.

“And that’s how you do it!” After he burned the fungus organism to ashes he put the flathrower on his shoulder and made a cool pose but when he looked back at his companion, they were making quick work of other fungus organisms and nobody was paying attention to him.

Shaking his shoulder with disappointnt that he lost the chance to impress his companion. He shook his head and moved toward others to help them deal with the rest of the fungus organisms.

“Hohoho! Not bad, not bad, indeed! This bunch looks promising!” Erick, who was observing the group, comnted on their action and felt that these people have good teamwork.
