Five minutes before they reached the destination, all the participants had been assembled in the cabin, including the explorers under the OpenSky Company.
There was a 19-year-old man giving them the briefing for this raid.
"As you already know, we'll be targeting the seven Tier 3 beasts in this place. Our teams will also be participating and we will do our best to keep you from getting into danger.
"Next is this..." The man raised a flare gun. "Shoot the flare to the sky if you want to get rescued or notice something wrong. We'll immediately send our team there.
"While we do our best to help you, it'll be hard to keep track of all the people. Hence, I'll set up perimeters. Anyone who crosses this line can consider themselves eliminated. If there is any beast coming over to you, we won't be able to come to you right away." The man drew two straight lines parallel to each other.
"Last but not least, I want to tell you to be extra careful. Don't be too complacent about your current achievements. That might get you killed on this expedition. That's all."
The man paused for a moment. "If you still have any dissatisfaction, you can settle it after the expedition. Anyone who is trying to disrupt the raid will be treated harshly by us, understand?"
The people's hearts skipped a beat after that warning. They all knew what the man was talking about.
It was clear that Clovis's identity was special and indirectly implied that he entered through a connection.
However, it didn't really matter for Clovis as he had another plan to solve the problem.
"If there is no question, we shall head out." The man waved his hand. "Follow me."
The man led them to the door. He didn't know the reason why Hana came to this place.
However, Clovis's group was chosen personally by their president. There should be a reason for it. It would be wrong if he didn't feel jealous or anything, but he was in no position to question her superior's decision unless it was proven that they were useless.
He had seen all the people hiding their true abilities because it would put them in danger. They were the same as people who revealed their abilities so that big companies would pick them.
So he believed that was the reason for Hana to choose Clovis's group. For the time being, he had just to warn them and watch for the result. The ability to make a calm decision was also the reason why Hana hired him.
"I see." The man closed his eyes for a moment. "I'm also curious about your strength. For Miss Hana to personally register a group, you should be rather special. However, I will have to warn you that I'm planning to treat you the same as others. Coming outside the zone will make it hard for us to rescue you in case something goes wrong."
"That's fine. Thank you for answering my question." Clovis nodded before gesturing to Jay and Kanaria that they would be going in soon.
The man watched their backs until they disappeared into the woods.
As if expecting it, screams started echoing inside the forest.
"Aaaahhh!"
"NO!"
"Whaaaatttt!"
A lot of people looked confused, so the guy looked at all the explorers from the company. "It's time for us to move out as well!"
They nodded their heads, knowing that this would happen to the country bumpkin who didn't understand the true terror of the beasts.
...
In the forest.
"Gaaaah!" A young man crashed into a tree. He looked at the beast in front of him while gritting his teeth. "What is going on? I am a Tier 1 human and the opponent is the same. I should have been able to fight against two or three Tier 1 beasts at the same time, but I'm actually being overpowered by one?"
"Help!" Another young man shouted while avoiding all the attacks from the beast, but he was soon out of breath and got slammed to the side.
"Axel!"
"What is going on? The report told us that these beasts would be extraordinary, but this is not just a mere 30% or 40% increase. It's as if they're twice as strong."
