"Kanaria, in position."

    "Jay, in position."

    "Clovis, in position. It''s your call, Kanaria," said Clovis while looking at the map.

    Kanaria was looking at a Tier 2 lizard called Megalania. This lizard was considered one of the largest lizards to have ever existed. Its length was close to seven meters. It had a robust build, powerful limbs, and a long tail.

    Their target this time was this lizard.

    ...

    A moment ago.

    While watching the beasts from the top of the building, Kanaria noticed a giant lizard moving to a building. On the way, Melody immediately showed them the lizard''s picture while saying, "This lizard seems to be in one of the requests."

    "Really?" Clovis frowned. "What is the mission?"

    "Wait a bit. I''ll show you about it." Melody took a few seconds before showing the post about the mission.

    Mission: Megalania Subjugation.

    Description: Kill a Tier 2 Megalania and obtain its essence and blood.

    "Blood? Do we have a container for that?" Clovis frowned.

    "We can probably do it somehow. There is a small freezer on the car, so we can use it to preserve the blood sample. But it means that no one can enjoy a cool drink, and the car has to be active all the time." Kanaria explained.

    "Will there be a problem?"

    "Other than those two inconveniences, no."

    Clovis nodded. "Alright. We shall subjugate the Tier 2 Megalania. Kanaria will go to the building on the north side, while Jay and I will protect the building. We will make the beasts come to the building before taking care of them as a team."

    "Got it."

    "There are about seven beasts around that building. You have to kill them first." Kanaria warned them while stepping back before running to her new spot.

    Kanaria frowned. "Hello? Clovis? Jay? Melody? Anyone can hear me?"

    There was no response. Kanaria instantly felt something weird as she immediately backed down and hid behind the wall. She checked her equipment to see if it was broken or not.

    However, the skyglasses still looked normal. It was just that she couldn''t say anything on the radio, which was weird.

    "Mhmm?" Kanaria looked down, contemplating. It was then that she remembered Clovis''s words last night. "Don''t tell me..."

    Without hesitation, Kanaria rushed to the stairs. In fact, she simply leaped over the railing and proceeded to go down the stairs. She even stayed outside the windows so that even her shadow wasn''t seen.

    ''Aren''t they moving too fast?'' Kanaria furrowed her eyebrows. Even though there was a high possibility that they weren''t going to get killed by a sniper, it didn''t change the fact that she should be out of their sight in case it wasn''t like what they thought.

    Kanaria hurriedly climbed down the building and broke the window to exit the building so that she could use the alley to hide her position.

    This way, the enemy wouldn''t know her position and would constantly look for her.

    Jay continued killing the beasts one by one, but Clovis noticed the gunshot had stopped.

    "Kanaria?" Clovis called her name with a confused tone. "Melody?"

    If Kanaria was taken out, Melody would definitely respond. After all, she was hidden from plain sight. In that case, it seemed that his transmission wasn''t working, and coupled with the fact that Kanaria had stopped shooting, Clovis realized it was an enemy''s attack.

    "Jay!"

    "Huh?" Jay glanced at Clovis while slashing the beast in front of him.

    "Get into the building. Don''t show yourself outside." Clovis ran toward the building on the right without hesitation. He didn''t even bother to reply to Jay''s question.

    His action was enough to show Jay the severity of their situation, so he immediately used the building on the left as a cover. At the same time, the beasts were split into two groups.

    On the other hand, Clovis kept trying to contact Melody. "Melody? Can you hear me?"

    Since he had no way of knowing their situation, Clovis ended up with a dilemma. On the one hand, he had to check Kanaria''s situation. On the other hand, Melody''s fate was also unknown.

    His heart was telling him to find Kanaria, but his brain asked him to go to Melody instead. After all that conversation last night, he had to believe in Kanaria.

    "Huu..." Clovis bit his lips before cutting all the beasts in front of him, making his way toward Melody.
