Chapter 85: CHAPTER 85 – Collecting some more Points.
Everyone could hear the screech and they could see a flock of beasts zooming toward them at a very high speed, but Alex and Alice just ignored that and landed on the ground.
"You guys did good, now rest for a while, we will move after that."
Alice spoke as she landed on the ground, but the raiders didn't seem to hear her as their focus was on the incoming flock of beasts that were about to reach them.
The beasts that were moving towards them were about 4 or 5 meters in length with their skull shaped like birds, but it was not completely like the birds as their beaks were actually part of their skull bone with sharp teeth inside of them, and they were called pterosaurs.
They were screeching as they glided down at very fast speed with open beaks or jaws whatever you would call them. They were probably thinking of picking their target and taking it together with them.
"Oh, you guys don't need to worry about them, they are dead anyways," Alice spoke as she saw them looking at the incoming beasts.
Alex had already nodded to her gesturing that he would take care of those beasts so the beasts were already dead in her eyes.
The raiders turned towards Alice with confusion as they could see the beasts still alive and moving towards them at very high speed.
But they soon realized what Alice meant as they saw what happened.
..........................
The pterosaurs are a kind of beasts that would fly around in the air looking for their targets and they would keep flying above their target, waiting for it to relax or let its guard down.
When they see the right moment they attack, but still, they don't directly kill their targets right then and there, rather, they pick their targets alive, take them to their nests, and kill them there.
Just like always a group of pterosaurses were flying around when they saw the fight between the beasts and the raiders.
Just then they decided that the raiders were going to be their target, so they waited for the fight to end so that the raiders get tiered, and ready to be hunted.
When they saw that the fight had ended, they directly dived toward the raiders, they had their claws stretched downwards and jaw/ beaks open. They were going to catch them, whether they had to use their jaw/ beaks or their claws.
They dived at a very high speed and when they almost reached their target, suddenly spikes made of rocks started to come out of the earth, one after another.
The beasts couldn't stop themselves as their speed was very high, and in the end, they died helplessly as they were pierced by those spikes.
*Screech....*
They could only screech in a low voice at their souls left their bodies.
..........................
"All right guys, time to move!" Alice exclaimed as she stood from the ground and dusted her armor cum dress.
It's been around 30 minutes since the time Alex killed the beasts with the earth spike and this much time was more than enough for the raiders to recover their energy.
It was just that Alice was letting them rest as they had time on their hands, after all, there was no limit on the time they stayed inside the gate.
They might be declared dead if they took too much time, but who cares?
They will just go out alive and those declarations would be of no use after that, after all, how can someone alive be declared dead?
The raiders stood up and started stretching, it seemed that resting right after that hardcore workout made their bodies a bit lethargic.
It didn't take long before they started moving again.
"I will take care of the beasts that come our way from now on, but still, you guys should stay alert as we don't know what kind of beast we are going to face.
Some of them might escape my attack and move towards you guys, so, just in case, be ready."
Alex spoke as they moved forward.
The raiders heard Alex and then turned towards Alice as she was the one with the final say here.
"Listen to what he says," Alice nodded at them, and the raiders nodded back in response, accepting the order.
'Time to collect some more points…..' Alex spoke inwardly with a smile.
The raiders from the guild walked behind with Alice and Ann while Alex moved in the front.
They continued walking on the grassy field enjoying the view. Even if it was an S-ranked special gate no one could deny that it was a beautiful place with greenery everywhere.
It looked peaceful as well...….
*Swish**Boom**Pierce**Splash**Slash*
Maybe not so peaceful, as the peace was destroyed by Alex who was walking ahead of the group of raiders, spamming abilities here and there.
They could see water blades, arrows, balls, and bullets, same goes for fire, earth, and wind. Alex was just spamming abilities without stopping, making the raiders rub their eyes in disbelief.
'You got unlimited energy or what???' This is what all of them wanted to ask Alex.
They didn't know just how close they were to the correct answer, after all, Alex had unlimited energy in a way...
They would look at Alice hoping to get an answer, they wanted a justification that could make this all look a bit more believable.
But Alice would just shrug, she herself didn't know every one of Alex's abilities.
The raiders just watched with shock, awe, and wonder as Alex effortlessly killed every single beast that they could see.
Then they remembered Alex's words, 'Some of them might escape my attack and move towards you guys, so, just in case, be ready.'
They wanted to know how he could even say that, after all, if there was a beast that could escape that kind of bombardment, how would they even survive against it?
Without them realizing time passed and after walking for like three or four hours, they could finally see some change in the surroundings.
They could feel the temperature getting higher while the grassy ground below them started turning into a plane field without much grass.
But by now it was already nighttime in the gate and since they were in an undiscovered gate and they were entering a new territory, they decided to camp right there.
"As I said before, we won't be talking risks and since we don't know anything about this gate and it's already dark, let's just camp here."
Alice spoke after gathering everyone.
The raiders nodded and started setting up the tents that Ann took out of her storage ring.
They failed to notice a pair of slit eyes that were looking in their direction from some distance.
Well, Alex did notice but he didn't point it out as he had a feeling that it would be better to let whatever it was go as it would be more good than bad (For him).
Alex didn't know how spot-on his instincts were, but he would know that soon enough...… exclusive-to-NovelFire
