Chapter 5: Chapter 3. Ambushed!

"Captain Gard, that girl has woken up."

Claudia jogged to the front of the carriage with a happy face to report to the mercenary man.

The businessman was still carefully wiping the gold coins in his hand in the carriage at the moment, and when he heard the clear and sweet voice of the girl outside, his expression became much more relaxed.

"That would be great...huh? Something's wrong?"

Gard looked around in doubt, and a very strange feeling emerged in his heart. At this moment, on the endless grassland, there is nothing but the breeze.

It was very quiet, a very eerie quiet.

Even the hissing insects could be heard occasionally in his ears just now, but now it seemed that all sounds were blocked. He raised his hand upward to signal the carriage to stop.

"Oh shit! What are you doing?"

The stopped carriage almost caused the gold coin in the merchant's hand to fall to the ground. He quickly slid the gold coin into his arms and slammed the car window shut, his face flushed, yelling at the mercenary, "Goddess!" Why are these mercenaries always messing around? When he arrived in Regazzi Town, he had to deduct a commission from them to relieve his annoyance at the moment.

"I'm sorry, Lord Rodrigo; I have a particularly uneasy feeling right now."

"What's there to worry about? Such a large grassland can be seen at a glance, isn't there any danger that can be seen at once!" The businessman pointed to the distance angrily, and everything in his eyes was as calm as before, "Damn, are you dissatisfied about commission this time, so you spout some bullshit to raise the price?! I told you to put away that stupid idea!"

Sensing something moving out of the corner of his eye, the businessman looked at that place suspiciously, but there was nothing unusual about the swaying emerald-green grass in his eyes.

"Not good!"

Suddenly, the hair on Gard's back stood up. He pulled out the long sword at his waist and slashed at the grass not far away. A sharp roar sounded, and the originally calm grass began to squirm crazily.

"Goddess! It's a plague of rats! Everyone pay attention and prepare to enter the battle!"

The surrounding mercenaries pulled out their weapons one after another and protected the surroundings of the carriage. Green woodrats the size of cats roared and jumped out of the grass and rushed towards the carriage. Shivering inside the carriage, Rodrigo's ears were filled with the sound of hacking outside and the sound of woodrats surging.

Damn it! The merchant's intestines were full of remorse, and he regretted why he didn't listen to those people and insisted on passing through this prairie.

The wood rat swiftly pounced on Gard, and the latter could clearly see the dense and sharp teeth in its wide open mouth just by raising his head slightly. He swung the sword and chopped off the wood rat in mid-air, but he didn't have time to catch his breath. After a while, another five or six wood mice rushed toward him.

The numbers were simply too much!

"Ah! Commander, save me!"

One mercenary didn't notice the gap behind him at all, but in this short moment, dozens of wood rats buried him instantly. Only a scream could be heard, followed by a terrifying gnawing sound.

The death of the companion immediately caused the other mercenaries to panic. If this continues, their defense circle will be completely broken by the woodrats. The worst outcome was that they would all become the dinner of the woodrats.

Gard stared at the countless swarms of rats in front of him while repelling the one that had been culled in front of him. Even though he had experienced many battles, he still felt powerless in his heart at this moment.

What should I do to find a glimmer of life in it?

"Why is it so noisy outside?"

Aurora, who was studying the magic sword Flamberge Waltz in the carriage, was attracted by the continuous clashing sound. She turned off the system interface and supported her body to look out of the carriage window. The woodrats wriggling wildly on the grass outside entered her sight, startling her.

"Damn, how can I forget about this!"

She was so deep in thought about her situation that she forgot that the fact that Halberry Prairie was known as the grave of novice players wasn't unfounded at all! That was because numerous woodrats would randomly refresh in this location, and at some point, the noob would feel as if he were ambushed by an ocean of rats!

Don't look at the level of these woodrats, which are only level one monsters. Due to their huge numbers, they would attack the player unrelentingly, like human sea tactics, until you were consumed to the bone!

'What should I do…'

The sudden change of situation caught Aurora unprepared, making her slightly nervous. She wasn't sure that, if she decided to fight, she would perform as well as in the game. She had spent more than half of her life lying in bed in real life. Even light exercise was too much for her body, let alone learning martial arts.

In the game, she could fight flawlessly due to the battle assistance, and more fundamentally, it was just a game. Some of the game features might be carried over with her, but would it work for another?

Take a step back, her body was now full of injuries. It would definitely be painful if she were to move even a little bit.

As she mulled over the situation inside the carriage, the battle situation outside gradually worsened for the mercenary group. Almost half of the men had already fallen, and the remaining people slowly got overwhelmed by the woodrats' assault.

'What will Auror do if he's here?'

Aurora couldn't help but think of the game character she played for almost five years. That steady and dependable guild master would not shrink like a turtle as he watched his companion being beaten by the monsters.

Clenching her teeth, Aurora finally stopped hesitating and made up her mind.

"I have to help them, otherwise it's too dangerous..."

Although the woodrat was indeed difficult to deal with in the early stages, the players finally found a way to crack it. Every group of woodrats had a leader, and as long as this leader was eliminated, the group of woodrats would disperse and flee in an instant.

And she knew how to locate the leader's location.

Without hesitation, she grabbed a black coat from the corner of the carriage and rushed out to the battlefield.

*

The battle grew fiercer.

Gard twisted his body in a half circle, and the long sword in his hand slashed across the bodies of the three woodrats jumping in the air at an arc angle. Blood sprayed in the air as the severed woodrats' corpse fell to the ground with a bang.

In front of them, these dead wood rats were almost piled up into a hill. The hands holding the weapons had already started to tremble uncontrollably, and their physical strength was almost exhausted.

Gard wiped the blood splashed on his face with his left hand and subconsciously ordered the other mercenaries to shrink down the defensive circle, but in the next second, his pupils shrank suddenly. A figure seemed to be half a beat behind when the mercenaries retracted the defensive circle, causing the entire body to be exposed to the sharp teeth of dozens of wood rats.

"Claudia! Watch out!"
