10

A report came in

&x201C;What did you just say?&x201D;

- There is an ongoing battle at the Heard Fortress &xA0;It seeas

When he received the report, Sinclair didn't ask for the identity of the person or group fighting Anugas

There were only two types of Users that would willingly step into the ruins of the Heard Fortress to face the predator ast predators &xA0;Either one was an idiot or it was a warrior trying to catch this predator

If the Users were idiots, they wouldn't have been able to reach this far in the game

This meant a warrior had shown up, and there were only two candidates

Storuild and the Hahoe Mask!

He didn't ask for the identity of the combatants, since it didn't matter &xA0;It could be either one of them &xA0;He'll be satisfied either way

&x2018;Since they went into the cage of the beast without our urging, we have to give them the treatment they deserve!&x2019;

He had prepared for such a scenario &xA0;He had put a group on standby that'll allow hiainst his enenal, he would be able to uilds called the Five Stars &xA0;The 500 uards would head towards the Heard Fortress

Then they would stay at a distance where Anugas' special ability couldn&x2019;t reach &xA0;Each ic once &xA0;They would be able to neatly take care of the Users inside the Heard Fortress

Of course, they wouldn't be able to catch Anugas &xA0;However, they'll surely be able to kill the Users that went to fight Anugas

Sinclair ied the channel on his Voice Talk

&x201C;Hands guild&x201D;

- This is the Hands guild &xA0;Speak

&x201C;It seeas Raids&x201D;

- They really decided to move first &xA0;Crazy bastards

- No &xA0;The fact that they are crazy is the reason why they were able to get this far &xA0;If the Hahoe Mask and the Storotten this far out of hand

- You have a point &xA0;If they were normal, they wouldn't dare to atteet ready

- We'll get ready on our side

&x201C;We'll get ready on our side too&x201D;

Sinclair iot up from his seat

Chuh-buhk, chuh-buhk

Hyrkan walked with his ar his usual Dark Spot set

He earing his leather armor &xA0;It was like a superhero suit one could see in a ly around his body &xA0;The leather ar like a chameleon

It was the Forest Pursuer set

If one wanted to be the fastest User in Warlord, one had to have this defensive gear &xA0;Hyrkan appeared wearing this set, and the Crying Sword in his hand cried out

Hyrkan stopped rave that had clear signs of being disturbed &xA0;It had been awhile, since Hyrkan had disturbed the stone grave, yet it had stayed disturbed

This region had not been reset &xA0;This meant this place was a symbolic location

&x2018;As expected, it is here&x2019;

This hy Hyrkan was able to reaffir!

As if to answer his confidence in his answer, the ground behind Hyrkan started to split open as it let out a loud sound

It was the saiant popped out froiant appeared, it opened its eye

[Anugas opened its eyes It has eaten every being&x2019;sits as' presence, Hyrkan raised his sword

Choo-roong choo-roong!

The Crying Sas closest to Anugas, and it let out a cry &xA0;Hyrkan leisurely spoke towards the Crying Sword

&x201C;Stop whining&x201D;

He had spoken to the sword, but in reality, he was giving himself a mental note &xA0;He kneas the one, who had to follow those words

&x2018;Ahn-jaehyun &xA0;You are the one, anted it this way, so never whine about it&x2019;

The pursuer he could never shake had appeared in front of hi back now

He could have taken the easy road by fighting with the Storuild, but he had turned down that option

In the end, the situation was the product of his own actions &xA0;Even if the result of this battle turned out to be disastrous, Hyrkan didn't have the qualification to whine about it

Of course, Hyrkan didn't plan on letting this turn into a nightas &xA0;Anugas charged towards Hyrkan

Koong koong!

Anugas' steps sounded heavy

Pah-bah-baht!

Hyrkan's steps sounded swift

The two types of sound converged, and the two sounds intersected

Hoo-oohng!

Anugas' arreeted its hands

Sssook!

Hyrkan sliced Anugas' thigh

Koong koong &xA0;Pah-bah-baht!

After exchanging blows, the two of them basically backtracked the path each other took &xA0;Hyrkan stopped his footsteps as he turned his body &xA0;Anugas' enormous body also caas and Hyrkan glared at each other &xA0;Hyrkan looked at the wound he h

&x2018;It is as I had predicted&x2019;

Hyrkan once again got into the saas

&x2018;It has 3 Phases &xA0;The estimated Raid completion ti the saain &xA0;A thousand strikes should be enough&x2019;

After he finished his preparation, Hyrkan ran towards Anugas again

He started a battle that wouldn't allow a single mistake

The Black Continent allowed the Users to enjoy a bountiful harvest ofover into the Black Continent was steadily increasing &xA0;The Game System adjusted the amount of monsters spawned to match the nu theproduced &xA0;Now there was an excessive supply ofon, the Heard Fortress Quest was activated, and it inevitablytowards the Heard Fortress would have a higher nuen tinificantly decreased

It didn't end there &xA0;The Five Stars had placed many Users near the Heard Fortress to keep a constant watch, but the Warlord's Systeht they were there to hunt &xA0;The Syste flooded &xA0;The surface tension of the water was keeping the water fro

Of course, it wasn't wise to put in 1,000 Users into such a stage

This was a totally different situation froreat battle, the e mode, and they had exposed many of their weak spots &xA0;If the monsters hadn't opened thereat battle would have been uniinably harder &xA0;Moreover, the monsters in the Black Continent wasn't weak like the ones in the great battle &xA0;The monsters here were all over level 200, and there were a new breed of st them &xA0;The Illusion type monsters were present

This was the reason why the Five Stars werethemselves to be able to bombard the Heard Fortress

They methodically killed the monsters as they moved with their safety in mind &xA0;The Strikers went forward in advance to find and lure out the ro as the Magicians and Strikers took down theto find e of bo the ruins of the Heard Fortress &xA0;The coave a short suht

- There is no downside in being careful

At his words, people started to speak in the Voice Talk channel, which was labeled as the Hand's guild

- The erous situation will be when the Hahoe Mask runs aith Anugas in tow like before &xA0;At that point, we have to retreat no ht &xA0;Everyone has to take those words to heart &xA0;We have to avoid any losses

- Still, we have to catch him this time &xA0;We can't always let the Hahoe Mask have it his way &xA0;Even the people above us arethat bastard

- Those kinds of thoughts are dangerous

- Anyways, I feel nizes ram soon

- Where?

- BBC

They warned each other, and they shared honest advices Then there were the occasional snippets regarding their personal lives

However, it took only a moment for their conversation to turn into nervousness

- The !

Hatch saw the Users, who easily dispatched several dozen monsters &xA0;The monsters were easily over level 200

Tsk tsk tsk tsk!

Hatch clicked his tongue as if he was playing playing an instruot the short end of the deal&x2019;

Shir had accepted the Hahoe Mask's proposal &xA0;For the price of accepting the proposal, the Stormhunters had to block the advance of the Five Stars, ere planning on interfering with Hyrkan froas Raid

From Hatch's perspective, this was a bad deal

&x2018;Why can't she direct some of her affections towards me instead of the Hahoe Mask? &xA0;Even a little affection would shave my contract period to 2045 &xA0;If not, they should just date each other &xA0;They aren't even dating, yet why do we have to get the short end of the stick in regards to a deal with the Hahoe Mask?&x2019;

However, Hatch didn't express his complaints in front of Shir

Moreover, he didn't plan on doing shoddy work, because he thought this was a loser of a deal

&x2018;In the end, doesn't the people low on the totem pole have to make up for the difference?&x2019;

Hatch raised his clenched fist into the air, and an enormous Ice Spear appeared above his fist

Hatch aimed his Ice Spear towards the chaotic battlefield

Ballista

He was known as the ician in Warlord &xA0;He closed one eye as he becaic towards the cluster of Magicians &xA0;After he weighed the distance, Hatch stopped breathing, and he threw the ic as he exhaled &xA0;

Shweeek!

The Ice Spear flew in a big arc

Pha-bah-bahk! &xA0;
