at the same time.

Ten kilometers away in the forest, a well-equipped squad is on its way.

There were thirteen people in total, each wearing silver-white armor, with rubies and sapphires inlaid on their chests and arms.

Leading the group was a tall knight riding a pure white unicorn, majestic and imposing, his blue eyes arrogantly surveying everything around him.

However, he is not the core player of this team.

In the very center of the group, a girl was firmly protected by several armored warriors.

Her eyes were grayish-white, and she couldn't see anything.

Her entire body was covered by a cloak, with four-fifths concealed, revealing only her smooth chin and a pair of delicate hands.

Others subtly centered their attention around her, each step forward better protecting her position.

At that moment, the girl, who had been walking normally, suddenly raised her hand.

"stop!"

Everyone stopped at the same time and assumed a guarded posture.

The tall, leading knight turned around, a hint of confusion in his blue eyes. "What's wrong, Sheila?"

The girl slowly closed her eyes and whispered:

"Wadell, I sense a presence from the East. They give me a feeling... very dangerous!"

"The East? Neon or Ice Bear?"

Sheila slowly opened her gray-white eyes. "Neither. She's from the Dragon Kingdom."

A hint of disdain flashed in Waddle's eyes. "So they're just rats hiding behind walls."

Hillary frowned.

"Don't underestimate them. The Dragon Kingdom is the only country that has built a wall around the entire nation. There must be something to them."

"Hmph, a bunch of cowards and incompetents. In my opinion, they just don't dare to step out of the country to fight those tentacle monsters for the lost territory, so they built a city wall as an excuse."

Upon hearing this, Hillary shook her head and dropped the subject.

"Let's go back."

"Go back?! Are you kidding me?!"

Upon hearing this, Waddler's eyes widened immediately.

"They give me a dangerous feeling, and we don't need to take the risk because of this one site."

"You're not afraid of them, are you?"

Upon hearing this, Hilla frowned slightly, and her greyish-white eyes gradually glowed with a holy white light.

"My talent is that I never make mistakes."

Waddle frowned deeply when he saw that Hilla was serious.

Sometimes he really felt that he was unworthy of the title of captain, as if she was the real person in charge.

This insecurity has been bothering him ever since.

At this moment, a blond, blue-eyed young man with a typical aristocratic air stepped forward, looked at Waddler, and slowly smiled as he spoke:

"Captain, please forgive me, Sheila meant well and didn't mean to offend you."

Waddler glanced at him, his expression relaxing considerably.

Béaur, Sheila's childhood sweetheart.

Every time Sheila contradicted his orders, he would step in as a mediator, giving Waddle a way out.

He frowned, ignored Sheila, and then gave the order:

"keep going!"

"You guys go ahead, I'll stay here and wait."

Hillary said something in a low voice.

Then he found an open space and sat down.

Waddler's face flushed red instantly, and he roared, "You're the team's strongest fighter, why aren't you going to figure this out?!"

"The enemy is stronger than us. Whether I go or not, the result will be the same. I can stay here and help you collect the corpses."

Are you cursing us?!

"That's not what I meant."

"You really think the team is useless without you?!"

"I never said that."

"you……!"

Waddle's chest heaved violently, and bloodshot veins appeared in his eyes.

After a moment, he took two deep breaths to calm himself down, and then spoke coldly:

"Then you can wait here! If you don't participate in this mission, you're not entitled to any loot! Let's go!"

After saying that, he suddenly pulled on the reins.

The unicorn grunted and strode forward.

The others hesitated for a moment, but then followed.

Openly disobeying orders is severely punished; Hillary may not care, but they cannot.

Bér frowned, glanced at Sheila who had her eyes closed, sighed helplessly, and followed her.

Hillary has already disobeyed orders, and if he does too, they will certainly be punished when they return.

At the very front of the line.

Without the humanoid radar Sheila, Waddle had no choice but to pull out a spare small detector from his pocket. Its detection range was a pitiful three kilometers, which was better than nothing.

"Captain, don't worry about her, Sheila..."

At this moment, Béur suddenly stepped forward, trying to plead for his lover.

Kowaldell raised his hand to interrupt him, coldly saying:

"Don't worry, I won't hold a grudge against her over such a small matter. After all, without her, our team wouldn't have developed so quickly."

"Thank you, Captain."

Béur breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, but then immediately changed the subject: "However, Captain, Sheila's prophecies have never been wrong. Shouldn't we be more cautious?"

"Of course. If I'm certain that the other party is truly beyond our capabilities, I naturally won't provoke them. But I absolutely cannot tolerate such a cowardly departure. Do we, the dignified lineage of Holy Light Angels, not even have the courage to face them? If word gets out, we'll immediately become a laughingstock!"

These words were spoken.

Everyone nodded silently, including Béur.

They said they were the Holy Light Angels lineage with the greatest potential in the country, so how could they back down without a fight?

At the very least, we need to confirm whether the other party is really as powerful as Greece claims.

Otherwise, why would they willingly hand over a historical site?

At that moment, everyone's resolve hardened, and they forgot all about Sheila's words.

A dozen minutes later.

The detector suddenly emitted a beeping alarm.

Waddler's expression brightened.

"Found it!"

He immediately led his team to a dense jungle.

Parting the grass, a huge building ruin came into view.

In the open space of that building, six young men and women were resting.

They each held a large skewer of meat and ate it with relish, while an unidentified wild animal the size of a calf was roasting over the charcoal fire.

A group of people were laughing and chatting, eating with gusto, their mouths greasy and they were having a great time.

Especially a man, surrounded by beauties on both sides, a mature woman and a young girl, each one a stunning beauty.

The meat chunks were practically handed to his mouth, and the spring water was almost fed to him directly. If you didn't know better, you'd think he was being served the emperor.

Waddler and his group were completely stunned.

This isn't an exploration of historical sites; it's clearly a vacation!

"Captain, this is divine intervention!"

"Haha, these people are complete idiots. Do they think they own the ruins? They actually have the nerve to hold a party here?"

"Captain, this is an opportunity we can't miss!"

After seeing the so-called enemy clearly, everyone finally felt relieved.

What kind of enemy is this from the East? So utterly useless, lacking even the most basic sense of vigilance.

Waddler was also filled with excitement.

He can finally prove Hillary wrong!

He can finally prove that he is not just a powerful captain!

"Everyone, get ready!"

"Unleash our full potential; our first wave of attacks will cripple their fighting capacity!"

As all of the dozen or so people unleashed their holy light, Waddler swung his longsword down fiercely.

"kill!"
