David paid attention to the surroundings using his radar. Serpent Boss and the others had gone out of his radar range. He hoped they were okay. He opened his party list and saw Serpent Boss' name was still white, which meant he was still alive. No red dots came chasing from behind so he figured the enemies were still busy dealing with his comrades.
He then saw a single red dot coming his way, at a very fast speed. Someone was using a steed. He thought about using his steed as well, but he would be easily visible if he did that. After studying the speed of the red dot on his radar, he concluded that the steed was at least a super rare grade. His rare-grade steed won't outrun this enemy.
He opened his map and looked. His position was not that far from where he was asked to go. Should he just use the item here? He preferred to complete his mission without any deviation. So, he stopped, hid, and waited until this red dot ran past him.
The red dot did run past near his position, but it then stopped not far away. He was in hiding so he didn't see who the rider was. The rider could be someone using the God-eye monocle. In that case, it was pointless for him to hide.
It was just one enemy. He didn't believe he couldn't take on one enemy. With this thought, David moved from his hiding position and approached the red dot slowly. While he did that, the red dot suddenly disappeared.
'What…?' His first thought was the same as Motherboard when she experienced the same thing, but he soon dismissed it because he didn't know of a skilled magic user in the enemy's camp who dared to go chasing an enemy by himself. Unless, of course, this enemy was Master. The last intel was Master was still outside dealing with Themisphere army, so it couldn't be him.
Two other enemies came into mind, Long and Ronald. Both were very troublesome opponents. He decided to be prudent and moved away in silence. He could no longer trust his radar. He looked around while moving slowly. Jeanny had tried teaching him mana sense. He made some progress but his mana sense was still very basic. He could only sense things right next to him.
While he slowly moved away, his sharp hearing picked up a soft rubbing sound from above.
He looked up and saw a small creature that looked like the interspecies child between a badger, a raccoon, and a dog. He quickly recognized this strange creature. It was Ronald's pet!
He rolled away just as the boom hound lunged at him from above. He summoned his Shield Drone and pet just as several gunshots were heard. The shield drone was positioned above him. He figured the Boom Hound came from above so Ronald should be up there as well.
He knew he guessed right when he heard the impact sounds from the Shield Drone above him. His pet, the Barghest, engaged the Boom Hound that was rushing over.
"Haha, you get a chance of a rematch. Aren't you happy?" Ronald's voice was heard from above. The gunshots never stopped.
David didn't stay still. He knew that covers meant nothing for the gunslinger above. He jumped away just as some bullets ricocheted into where he was a moment ago. His shield drone followed and continued covering him for shots from above.
"Haha. So, you have learned from your defeat," Ronald laughed. "Come on, fight back! Are you so scared because I beat you the last time?"
"I don't have the time to f*ck around with you," David said. A small item was in his hand. It was currently blaring with eerie crimson light.

"What are you doing?" Ronald asked.
"Goodbye!" David said. He threw the thing that was glowing in his hand to the ground before turning away and running. His shield drone covered his back as Ronald continued shooting at him. The Barghest disengaged from the Boom Hound and ran after its master.
Ronald wanted to chase but his attention was drawn to the glowing thing on the ground. The glow intensified. He felt extreme unease from the glowing items. Out of instinct, he moved away from that thing.
The crimson glow erupted into torrents of light that shot upward. An earthquake followed. The ground cracked and started to split. The split became so large that it was as if a chasm had appeared in the middle of the capital. From inside this chasm, an ominous-looking gate surfaced. The gate was so large that it almost touched the ceiling of the cave hall.
Ronald looked at the colossal gate in puzzlement. What exactly had David done?
The gate slowly opened. As it did, Ronald saw a dark abyss through the opened gaps. As the opening became wider, crimson specks were seen from inside the abyss. The specks slowly grew bigger.
When they became big enough, Ronald identified what those specs were. They were imps, small winged demons. The horde of imps flew out of the gate and spread in all directions.
As Ronald watched in amazement, he saw other monsters come out from the lower part of the gate. This second type of monster was a lesser demon without wings. They wore armor and wielded various weapons. They looked tougher and more intelligent than the imps. They also spread in all directions.
Ronald used his Inspect and found that the imps and the demons were level 71 basic grades.
Level 71 basic grades were nothing for current players. Still, the number that poured out from the colossal gate was staggering, and these demons were still coming out.
Ronald then saw a different type of demon coming out. They were gigantic demons with grotesque bodies. On their belly was a huge mouth filled with sharp teeth. Fumes of fire were constantly emitted from their belly-mouths. These abominations were level 76 elite grades.
Ronald understood then what it was that David had used. He had heard reports about such items. This was an event caused by a disaster item. The monsters would continue to appear and they would be stronger ones coming out of the gate as time passed. He couldn't stay here!
Some of the imps noticed him and started flying towards him.
Ronald called his shadow horse and ran away from there.
