As soon as the infiltration started, one of the UR grade blesseds used his ability to create a barrier around everyone. This man who was responsible for this barrier was Mark and his ability was quite powerful if used properly.
He was not included amongst the top UR grades of the world because his ability was not really good for fighting along. But in a group, especially if that group had powerful people, his ability was broken.

So what his ability did was to create a barrier based on the total combat power of his team. As for who he could consider to be in his team, the people needed to directly tell him that they were willing to join his team and had to think positively about it. Only then Mark would be able to create a super strong barrier.
So the people who were a part of his team this time around were all super strong and all their combat powers were off the charts. So the barrier he was able to create was also extremely powerful.
Actually this ability had a limit to how many people Mark was able to consider to be a part of his team. That was why Rein was limiting the numbers by this much. Actually he wanted to bring a few more powerhouses but if they could not join Mark's team, he would not be able to cover them in his barrier and that would be too dangerous. That was the reason why Rein restricted the team size to only be this much.
After this first major battle, everyone continued their expedition. For the next hour, no monsters attacked them which was very surprising but instead of worrying too much about this, Rein decided to push on with his fastest speed and tried to cover as much distance as possible in this span of time.
But they also stayed cautious for the whole time as there was a high possibility that the will of All Chaos was doing this to make them to lower their guard and it could take advantage of that. But still in the absence of all obstructing monsters, Rein and his team did manage to make a lot of progress.
But that advance did not last for too long as very soon, a large group of monsters attacked them again. And this time there were several super powerful monsters who were leading a massive army of weaker bugs. From what Rein saw, he guessed that the Will of All Chaos was trying to send all its available forces to take care of Rein and his party.
Even in the face of this massive threat, no one was scared. All of them got ready for an intense battle. Not only did they all need to defeat all these monsters, they also needed to do that without spending much time. That's not all and everyone was feeling that their abilities weakened significantly. Most of the people here had resistance to this weakening as their skills also depended on other factors which were not weakened. But still this lessening power of the ability made the battle even harder.
After a five hour struggle, finally Rein and his team came out on top. Rein was the one who was most injured in his fight as he was continuously using own body to prevent others from getting hurt. He was doing that not because he was a masochist but because with his self regeneration ability, Rein believed that he was the most suited person to take the role of a tank or defender.
After this battle everyone was very tired but they did not have the time to take any rest. So immediately they continued going even deeper. Then finally after just half an hour, they finally came across an area that was giving off a terrifying feeling. Hana immediately told Rein that she was able to feel the presence of the will of all chaos from that area.
So everyone became extra cautious and entered the super terrifying zone to finally come face to face with the Will of All Chaos and to see what it was trying to do.
