The moment that was said, everyone nodded.
Cloud said somewhat helplessly, "Let's not talk about this for now. We should just think about how we're going to face these dangers right now. No matter what, we need to stay here for two days and two nights. We'll only be able to think about anything else after that."
That was possibly the only thing they can be thankful for. The Demon Spirit Kingdom had a time limit. Once everyone spent two days and two nights there, the final rankings would be counted, and the first three places would get the rewards and spirit crystals.
"It's because of these rewards that so many warriors signed up for the Demon Spirit Kingdom. If they knew how dangerous the situation was, they wouldn't have participated even if the rewards were several times better!"
When the man heard what Cloud said, he sighed. "I can't figure out anything better. I feel like we're in a depressing situation. The most important thing is the fact that we don't know what those beasts want at all. What kind of secrets are they hiding, and what will they do to us? If we don't even know that, how will we figure anything out?"
Rudy frowned. "So what we need to think of right now is how we're going to find out even more secrets. We need to dig all of these secrets out. Only by knowing their plans will we be able to counter them!"
Everyone else nodded, feeling like Rudy was right.
Kesh looked at Rudy and said, "We'll need to capture them if we're going to dig out their secrets. We need to hunt these beasts and disable them from killing themselves before we get them to talk!"
Rudy nodded. That was the only thing they could do at that moment. The only problem was, they did not know where they could find those Demon Spirit Beasts.
The mustached man said, "Where are we even going to find them? The Demon Spirit Beasts know the geography here. I bet they already know where we'll be sent to when we're sent over here while we don't know anything about them. If it wasn't for what you went through, we wouldn't even know they existed."
Everyone felt helpless when that was said, and it felt as though they had hit a dead end with no way out. Fane frowned as he looked to the distance. As time passed, more and more people gathered.
Fane counted until a total of 13 people gathered. Two were not present. Fane estimated the time in his head. Even if they had been far away, they should have already been there. Why were the final two so late?
He frowned and told Cloud, "Who are the last two who haven't arrived?"
If Fane had not joined abruptly, Cloud would have been the leader of the second-grade-world warriors. He was familiar with everyone who had joined.
After looking from left to right, Cloud frowned and said, "It's Collin and Simon. Why are they not here yet? Could it be…"
Before he could finish, Fane said anxiously, "Hurry and look into where they are, now!"
They had all left marks on each other to determine their locations.
The moment Fane said that, everyone shut their eyes and tried to feel where Collin and Simon were. However, all of them widened their eyes in shock.
Cloud paled a little. "I can't feel the marks on them anymore. Can any of you still feel them?"
