We rode something, seemingly like an jeep combined with a tank. The speed was average, but the capalibities for going through any kinds of terrain is so over the top, and there was 4 of it marching through the ruined lands.

"Say, where the heck did you find this?"

"Business Secret."

"Fine."

I was using Astral Vision, while focusing on vision, opening this magic eyes to see the world, and reducing the amount of sounds received so I could still guide these... let me just call them an amphibian tank, I suppose?

River, Forests, roads that already almost destroyed, we kept marching forward.

"The terrain is kinda hard and unstable starting from now on, we either slow down or get some back hurt, the call on you."

"Reduce the speed, we need to preserve ourselves and these car."

These four tank have a internal radio devices installed that connected everyone, it could work for some reason even when everything related to technology get destroyed by the monster.

We spend 2 times resting as everyone, especially the driver got extra tired by how unstable the land is.

"Its only 2 days, and things already like this, huh?"

My thoughts, was unconciously uttered by this mouth of mine.

"Well, if we look at the good side, it will definitely slow down if the destruction rate is this high already, no?"

Stella, was saying the truth, the hard truth.

It was a cold statement.

But, the world law and common sense already flipped, nothing will do anything, and even your moral won't help you to survive.

After a long, long journey of 8 hours trip, we arrived at their camps.

It was not too shabby, as it really a spontaneous attempt of survival.

A group of people, acting like a guard, stepped forward to greet us.

"Halt!."

Guard 1, was looking at our tanks and the luggage we brought.

"Ah. What can we do for you, fellows?"

Kaku standing up. "I want to meet the heroes that kill the monsters in this region, I need to talk to them immediately."

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

"This is regarding help for your survival, as well as some rations we brought."

"Looking at your equipments...nevermind, fine."

"Hey, you two."

"Us?"

"Yeah, find them, the fellow that is with Dril."

The two guard immediately get into the camps. Not long after that, they brought a group of people.

I analyze them, and yes, they're the same people that Astral Vision followed.

"Come with us, this isn't place to talk aren't it?"

The leader, trying to lead us.

Well, I mean, talking about business in a front-camp was kinda bad as people definitely could hear what we're doing.

Getting inside also practically means the same more or less, but eh, who cares?

"I will be straight to the point, let me use my Appraisal skill to scan everyone here."

"And your goal is?"

"To see, whether communication could be done here or not."

"It's not clear enough."

"I was looking for people that have affinity for long-range communication skill, Telepathy."

"Understood, but before that, may I ask something?"

"Go ahead."

"Which of you killed the region boss of Jakarta?"

"Busted, eh? Is it that obvious?"

"The mere fact y'all using jeep means you more or less anticipated this disaster."

I stepped in, as I hate these kind of arguments.

"That would be me, what is your question?"

"Fight me."

"I can't."

"Why?"

"I'm too weak compared to you, as I only have scouting skill and durability skill."

"Where the other four then?"

"The four is crew of a helicopter, I slashed the monster from the high sky, diving into it from 150m."

"What the heck."

"See, Rinka? You're one hell of mad lad." Kaku, his tones is flat, almost heard like honesty. Heck, even his face was serious.

"How come you didn't tell me that!"

"*Cough* Alright then, that duel will be saved for next time we met, we'll work with you."

"Before that, may we introduce ourselves?"

"My mistake, I am Lain."

"That crazy lad is Rinka, and I'm Kaku. Hope you all don't dissapoint me."
