127 The Gore Forest!

Oblivious to the issues, Pedro 'casually' walked closer and closer towards the origin of the monsters. He ensured that nothing would get pass through him by maintaining his slow but frighteningly steady pace whilst gathering the bodies of the dead monsters.

Due to his heightened senses, he noticed the footsteps of the monsters that are hundreds of meters away from him. Unfortunately, the effective area of the [Emperor's Will] skill from his Demonic eyes is only limited within a hundred-meter radius from him.

Those monsters who didn't get into his skill's range wouldn't be stopped and is headed straight towards the Naga Kingdom. The thought of not being able to stop all the monsters made him sigh and said, "There's a limit to what I could do."

He clenched his fist as more lines weaved through his forehead; seemingly angered by the possibility that the Naga Kingdom would fall. If the Naga Kingdom falls, he would lose the foothold he decided to establish.

Fortunately, in the next moment, a strong wind went past him, from his right, and the noise beyond the area of effect of the [Emperor's Will] disappeared.

"Are you forgetting about me, human?" A cute voice of a little girl mocked him from behind.

"Of course not." He said, smirking. Then, he tossed an inventory bag towards Faunia and said, "Clean up the monsters!"

"Why don't we find the head of these pests and kill it instead?" She asked.

"Head?" He chuckled towards her before he continued, "All of these monsters would scramble everywhere if we kill their leader. They would ravage Villages and even Kingdoms! At that point... It would be harder for us to eliminate every single monster!"

"You just want to kill as many monsters as you can, human!" Faunia murmured and smirked as her figure vanished into thin air. On the other hand, Pedro ignored her and simply continued his 'casual' walk.

~~~~Attack Team PoV~~~~

As they go deeper into the forest, Sabrina has started to slowdown her onslaught. She stab her pen knives to the eyes of the pouncing wolves, perfectly acurate; instantly killing the monsters.

Then, with her 'time-slowed' vission, she glanced around and found her next targets that were tens of meters away from her.

"What's happening?" she murmured as she noticed that something was odd.

That said, she still charged to her targets, which pounced towards her in response. After eliminating those monsters, she 'somehow' did not spot any monsters around her. She still kept her defenses up and her alertness to its maximum because there might just be an ambush awaiting for them.

After a few minutes of cautiously walking forward, Sabrina was at loss for words after seeing the forest of blood. Monsters were were squashed. Their bodies were splattered everywhere as the soil becomes a sticky mud made of blood.

At this moment, Mathew, Talia, and Yojiro arrived behind Sabrina with their hands covering their face. When Talia saw the gore state of the forest, she can't help but force herself not to vomit.

Unlike when they kill monsters, Every single part of the monsters were scattered anywhere in the forest. Eye balls hanging on tree branches like a fruit while intestines were scattered in the ground and could be mistaken for worms.

"Talia, are you okay?" Mathew asked in a worried tone.

Talia took a gulp and gasped several times before saying, "Yes, brother. I am fine!"

Before they could rest any further, a new wave of monsters appeared to their north. Everyone glanced towards the monster's direction as if they complaining when the monster attacks would end, except Sabrina.

Sabrina didn't gave them a chance to speak another word, and dashed forward like a kid who saw a candy store. Hopeless, Yojiro could only sigh and shook his head as he rushed after Sabrina.

Mathew, on the other hand, made sure that Talia was fine. That said, they started to follow behind them in a slower pace because of Talia slowly adopting to the gore environment.

When they caught up, Mathew switched with Yojiro as the front attacker. His attacks were multi-targeted while Yojiro's attacks were specialized in single targets. That is why it was ideal for Mathew to take the front with Sabrina, whilst Yojiro and Talia supports them and cleans up the monsters that were able to go pass through the two front attackers.

~~~~Support Team PoV~~~~

As the Attacker Team pokes into the forest, Yuson and Aldo lead the support team as they held the dock and defend their boat from the few monsters that were able to escape out of the forest.

Since the amount of monsters apearing were not that much compared to what Pedro, Faunia, and the attacker team were facing, they were also able to boost the three girls and level them up slowly.

Although their fights were not as intense as the attacker team, it was only enough for them to slowly familiarize themselves with the 'safe' combat methods in fighting the monsters. At the same time, it gives Aldo a chance to test out some 'theories and concepts' that he have based from his experience in playing non VR Games.

That said, Ashley closely followed behind Aldo because Elisabeth and Charlotte often got into an argument or 'discussion' whilst Loren simply wanted to be the one who collects the corpse of the monsters.

Truth be told, if Aldo and Yojiro did not insisted, Loren would not even dare harm the monsters. In fact, everyone in the support team is bewildered as to how she became the best friend of Sabrina, who killed monsters way scarier than Yuson or Yojiro which were NPCs.

"I wonder how are they doing..." Aldo said in a worried tone as he glanced towards the forest.
