Chapter 323

Defense Specialization and the Final Day

When Maple and her team returned to the base, they found that the other twelve had already arrived . They had all made it back safely . Maple waved happily and rushed towards them when they came into view .

“Good work everyone! Things went so well!”

“Ah, so you did well too . Our dungeon was…a little annoying . But we managed . ”

“Our strategy involved buffing Payne most of the time, so it was pretty easy . ”

“Everyone was strong, so we had no trouble!”

“Everyone was strong, so we had no trouble!”

“That’s great! Ah, thank you for exploring with us today . Thanks to you all, we got so many medals!”

Maple happily thanked ‘Congregation of Holy Swords’ and ‘Kingdom of the Flame Emperors . ’ But Payne and Mi said that it was they who were thankful .

“We would have been lucky to just get one medal if we went by ourselves . So you really did us a favor . ”

“Yeah . Cooperation isn’t bad after all . ”

They said with smiles . Maple was so happy that she smiled too .

“Let’s do our best on the third day too!”

“Of course . ”

“Yeah, we’ll do our best to survive until the end . ”

While they were rivals, they were also friends . And so it was only normal for them to root for each other .

“I’ll take the night’s watch . Think of it as a thank you for the base and the medals . ”

“Me too . We’ll work to make up for the shared space . ”

“Ehehe . Thank you!”

But Maple said that she would come to help if anything happened, and then she ran to the shared space .

While they took turns watching for enemies, they were all able to rest quietly . And so they were in good condition on the third day .

Maple got out of bed and stretched before heading to the next room where Sally was .

Sally was just coming out of her room, and so they bumped into each other .

“Morning! We’re in the third day now . ”

“Yes . And since we already gathered enough medals, we should focus on survival . ”

“Oh, right! The map and messaging…”

“The message feature is still disabled . However, things seem to be a little different with the map . Well, you’ll understand when you see it . ”

When Maple opened the map, she saw that there were numerous blue spots displayed all over it . And there were some red spots as well .

“What is this? Oh, there’s something written . Uhh, the blue dots are players and the red ones are special monsters?”

“Yes . So you can team up with others in order to survive . But for them to appear on the map, these monsters must be boss class . After all, anyone who survived this long would be able to kill normal monsters quite easily . ”

“Hmm . I see . ”

It was unlikely that Maple and the others would leave their base today, unless they absolutely had to . The only thing they could see on the map were the players, and not which guild they were from . And so it was unlikely that ‘Congregation of Holy Swords’ or the ‘Flame Emperors’ would leave either .

In other words, they would stay here and prepare to drive any enemies back . They just needed to stick to the strategy that they were the best at .

“It also bothers me that the third day is shorter than the first and second . I doubt they just made the time that we need to survive shorter and that’s it . ”

“It’s okay, Sally . I’m sure we can win if we all fight together!”

“…Hehe . I suppose so . There’s no point in overthinking it . ”

It was necessary to have a degree of flexibility in order to adapt to different situations . After some time, the others all got up and came out of their rooms . And then they prepared so that they could fight at a moment’s notice .

Maple and Sally went to check the screen that Marx had set up .

As they had gone through the trouble of going out last night, he had set up even more cameras outside, which gave them an expanded view of the area .

“How useful… I think I might search for a skill like this . ”

“I bet you could make good use out of it, Sally . Ah, there’s a monster . ”

“It looks like it’s not coming inside… I guess something is different now?”

Even though it was the third day, it was still dark outside, and the devil monsters were crawling all over the place . As they sat in the shared space and watched the screen for a while, something very interesting popped up on the screen .

“Ah, Sally! There!”

“Hmm? It’s the thing from yesterday…”

On one of the feeds, they could see that a purple mist had suddenly broken out . And after a few seconds, the familiar gate made of purple light appeared .

Their eyes were glued to the screen . The Fake Maples were now coming out of it and walking around .

“Did it move over here then?”

“Maybe…or there are more?”

They didn’t know if this one also connected to a dungeon, but Sally thought it was more natural to assume that they were multiplying . The easiest way to raise the difficulty was to change HP and statuses or increase the number of enemies .

“If they are appearing in other areas too…this could be bad . There is a limit to how many we can deal with . ”

Maple and the other would need skills and magic in order to fight so many monsters . Unless they were very powerful ones, they wouldn’t be able to kill monsters in one hit .

Payne and Mi had trump cards like ‘Light Sword of the Holy Dragon’ and ‘Murderous Inferno,’ but they could not be used repeatedly .

“We might be forced to go out . After all, we won’t be able to do anything if so many monsters attack so that the place is filled up . But if we’re outside, we could at least run away . ”

“That’s true…”

However, Sally added that they wouldn’t know until the time came . And so she took out an apple from her inventory .

“Well, it’s important to be able to adapt . Oh, do you want one too?”

“Yes, thanks! Where did you get them?”

“Uh, it’s just that you’re always bringing food like this . So I thought that I should return the favor once in a while . ”

“Hehe . Then I’ll give you something too . . ”

Like this, they spent their morning peacefully . The other members also had nothing to do until the monsters attacked, and so they all rested .

However, they were in the middle of an event where the objective was to survive . The monsters were not so kind as to allow them to relax for long .

The monster ambush was approaching .
