Chapter 119: Danger and Trap of Wilderness
We decided to head to the Deep Red Wilderness. The members are Gray, Kotetsu, Byakuya, Darley and Kitsuneko. Why did I choose Gray? Because he seems to be close to evolving. Besides, in an uncharted field, Gray's presence gives me a sense of security.
I get on Darley and move to match the speed of Kitsuneko.
Move while kicking away the Gray Wolves. Naturally, Kitsuneko and Darley are leveling up. It feels good.
We arrived at the Deep Red Wilderness. The scenery is just as the name suggests. The ground is a crimson color.
This would most likely be red soil. Hephaestus used to use bricks in his workshop. We'll probably get it. It looks like we'll be able to deliver a new souvenir to Hephaestus.
But it seems that this place is dangerous. Gray senses something.
What is it? I look at Gray and something smoky is approaching...wait a minute! No way!
"Everyone! Gather around me!"
At my command, everyone gathers. I cast an Earth Wall. But one card is not enough. Please! Please, just in time!
Just in time, five earth walls. They blocked us on all sides and above us. Thank God we had an earth wall against an earth wall.
Then a terrible impact hit them. It was a good thing that the earth wall blocked it, but if it had been a direct hit, we wouldn't have survived...
What hit us was a sandstorm. Normally, sandstorms occur in deserts, but if the wilderness is a desert, it's not surprising that a sandstorm would hit here...this is the first time I've encountered a natural disaster in this game.
I mean, is there a natural phenomenon in this game? I mean, it's never even rained before...
"Huu...Gray, I'm surprised you noticed"
"Gau"
I feel like Gray is telling me to leave it to him. I've been really helped by Gray.
Now, I have to get off Darley and release the earth walls. When I go outside, it's the original field. Is this what a sandstorm looks like? I thought there would be sand covering the whole area, but it's just a normal wilderness.
As I checked my surroundings, I spotted a being poking out of the ground. I couldn't identify it in time, but it was a meerkat. Was it a summon monster? It's the first time for a character to dive into the ground.
I guess it's no use if it got away...I'll meet it again sometime.
"Gaa!"
Gray warns of danger. This time
Both my feet suddenly sink into the ground. It's a pitfall. And why is it that only my feet are caught in the pit?
It's simple...if I only drop both feet, my crotch will naturally hit the ground...I regretted getting off Darley so much.
Hey...wait...terrible...painful...
As I was screaming in agony, I saw several shadows laughing at me. Meerkats. I succeeded in identifying them.

I also attacked Arthur in the crotch so I won't blame them. Ah, I won't blame them...I'll definitely kill them!
The Meerkats, sensing my murderous intent, hurriedly dove for the ground. Now, how to kill the enemy hiding in the ground...
"Everyone split up and wait at the entrance of the hole
I had everyone wait in front of the exit, the Meerkat entrance. Then let's roast them.
"Tremor!"
There is a slight earthquake. Now, how about meeting an earthquake underground?
Meerkats rush out of the hole.
"Welcome!"
The Meerkats rush to the ground to escape, but unfortunately I can't let them go after they've done so much damage to a person's crotch.
