Clovis hurriedly went back to the tent to grab his weapons. The same applied to all people in the camp. They all prepared for a big fight.
"Is this going to be fine?"
"We have so much trouble with lower tier beasts."
"What will happen to us?"
The roars of the beasts made them anxious, which caused them to tense up. If this continued, they wouldn’t be able to fight at their full power.
When Clovis was this, he might need to do something. Although it was extremely embarrassing and felt out of character, Clovis shouted to all of them. "Goddammit. Shut up!"
"!!!" The people raised their eyebrows and turned their heads around. Even Ivan looked shocked. Hana was actually smiling as if she thought this entire thing was amusing.
"Think for yourself. Are you going to fight for survival or for glory?"
Clovis’s words echoed in everyone’s ears. It was a vague message, so the people couldn’t help but ask each other.
"Is there any difference?"
"I think what he means by fighting for glory is how we fought when we first came here."
"Doesn’t that mean fighting for survival is by banding together?"
"That’s true. If that’s the case, we might still have a chance for survival. Or at least, our chance of survival will be significantly higher."
"But shouldn’t the OpenSky company guarantee our survival?"
"Then again, no one could predict an earthquake."
"That’s true." They looked at each other, realizing that the circumstances had reached a point where the OpenSky company couldn’t guarantee their survival.
When they looked at how Hana got worked up in assembling her subordinates, it looked like they had to protect each other’s backs.
"I think I’m going to trust you with my back. Since we’re also together with those people from OpenSky, we should stand a chance," said one of them.
Seeing such trust from a stranger, the other party also nodded his head. "Alright. Let’s do it. Glory is something we can enjoy if we are still alive. Let’s fight together."
Both of them shook hands, reaching an agreement.
Their agreement caused a chain reaction from other groups. They began to form an agreement.
Ivan couldn’t believe what he saw. In this raid, they were competing with each other. Their goal was to get picked up by the OpenSky company and head to a higher place.
Yet they actually lowered their pride for the sake of survival.
Hana couldn’t help but smile when she saw this unity. Normally, this wouldn’t be able to happen.
’To think he is able to do it… I have seen multiple times when people betray each other for the sake of their survival. But this one is different. No, should I say that if it’s not because of him, this won’t happen?
’First, he is uniting them and allowing them to form bonds with each other so that these people know how to kill the beasts by working together with other groups. That serves as a basis.
’Then, the Earthquake adds to the foundation and makes them think about the original enemy of mankind, which is the beast. Uniting people under a common enemy… The more I look at him, the more I realize that he is different from the normal Hacfield family, who are known for their craziness. Or maybe this is the reason why he is hidden away from the public?’
Hana’s expression turned serious as many possibilities entered her mind. However, she soon shook her head as she had to focus on the enemies first.
Ivan, on the other hand, gritted his teeth. Clovis once again was able to do something for the entire group.
"Hey. Do you want to team up as well?" A captain from another team came to Ivan. Since Ivan was strong, it would be good to work together with him.
However, Ivan shouted, "No. My focus is to kill a Tier 3 beast!"
"Huh?" He was confused, not understanding why Ivan was so angry. He saw Elina restraining him before politely speaking, "Sorry. We have been assigned to deal with a Tier 3 beast. I believe not joining hands with us is much safer for you guys."
"Well, if that’s the case…" He nodded and walked away.
Richard couldn’t help but turn grim when he saw such a reaction. The anger within him had subsided. Instead, it was replaced by something more concerning.
Unlike Ivan, when someone approached Clovis, they were received very well.
"I’m sorry, but you’re going to kill the Tier 3 beasts like yesterday, right? If you don’t mind, we can help you create a path so that you can fight the Tier 3 beasts easily."
Because of what happened yesterday and the video, they knew that Clovis would be aiming for them, so they were more straightforward.

"Is that so? We’re planning for a speedy advance. If you can just peel off several beasts from our left, we can focus a bit more."
"Yes. We’ll do that!" The guy nodded furiously, feeling excited.
"But are you sure you’re alright alone? Killing a Tier 3 beast because of someone’s sacrifice doesn’t feel good."
"Don’t worry. We are working together with another group. After hearing your speech, I feel the need to repay your group for encouraging us."
"In that case, I’ll leave our left to you." Clovis smiled while extending his hand.
"Yes." The guy shook Clovis firmly before returning with a big smile on his face.
If Hana were here, she would definitely think, ’This is the reason why people pay so much money for PR.’
Kanaria raised her head when she heard some roars around the area. Even Hana got the report and announced out loud, "They’re coming! Get ready!"
The people raised their weapons and faced the woods.
*Roar!*
*Roar!*
*Roar!*
The enraged beasts came out of the woods, charging at them.
Jay stepped forward and headed to a Tier 1 beast. The latter pounced on him, but Jay simply cut its legs and sent this beast to Clovis.
Clovis pulled out his swords and slashed the Tier 1 beasts ten times before they reached the ground, completely crushing this beast. The first kill was the most important after all.
When the people saw how easily Jay and Clovis defeated a Tier 1 beast, they felt fired up.
"Attack!"
