The next day…

A loud explosion sounded in the forest, followed by a mushroom cloud of dust. Atsushi rushed forward, both fists glowing blue, imprinting his fists into the body of a bus sized tiger. The beast roared and swiped a paw to the brawler, only to come in contact to a blue mana shield, covering the brawler from head to toe.

The brawler grinned madly, throwing out a furious hook kick, slamming it on the cheek of the beast. Right after, Atsushi launched a barrage of fists and kicks, indenting the skull of the beasts with his pure strength.

The tiger stepped back, furious but roared in pain as a Berserker hacked on its legs. Its eyes were pierced by arrows and injuries were all over its body. As the tiger fell, a divine druid stepped forward, eyes glowing white as she shouted, “Holy Smite!”

A blinding white sword fell from the sky, smoothly beheading the tiger’s head with its sharp blade. With a loud thud, the head fell, the tiger’s tongue lolling out with a flop. Atsushi raised a thumb at Kinuko, and the other members of the Japanese team gave Kinuko a gratified smile.

Kinuko returned the smiles with a bow and her expression steeled when a pack of wolves came out the brush, grOwling at the group with bared fangs. “Hopefully the other side is doing fine…” Kinuko mused softly.

An outbreak is when a dungeon falls after failure of clearing it. Once a dungeon falls, monsters will pool over into the realm of humans. Once every single monster leaves their designated dungeon, the gate will close. There have been cases in the future where dungeon outbreaks shape the land around it.

After the outbreak of the A rank gate in South Africa, the savannah environment changed into one of a scorching desert. The A rank dungeon outbreak occurred in South Africa, it didn’t take long for the nation to fall as A rank monsters are difficult even for level 50 players. With the majority of players at level 20, there’s no way they could even contend A-rank beasts.

According to the intel Japan gathered from the satellite image, there are a total of 17 monster camps, each with a different type of monster. Each team of three was task with destroying these camps. The monsters known are the goblin foot soldiers, trained goblins that are slightly difficult to deal with. Other than goblins, there are beast men, werewolves, weretigers etc. Narukami was tasked with killing the boss, the three headed dog Cerberus, difficult for anyone else but Narukami, and he needed to train as well, so it’s a win-win situation.

Han Ling activated his mana body the moment he stepped on the sand; the heat was enough to kill an average person. The group arrived by plane and landed on the lands of what used to be Somalia.

The other members also activated their mana bodies, eyes sharp for danger. “We have around 2 weeks to train here, it should be enough against the realm of monsters.” Han Ling explained to the group and split everyone to groups, but he sighed helplessly as a young man with a blue katana on his waist walked up to the group. “I assume everyone has their hunting parties?” Narukami asked joyously.

Han Ling scOwled at the lightning emperor before informing the rendezvous point after two weeks. He proceeded to give each member a lifesaving artifact, a rare item that teleports the player to a safe location when used. He also provided each of them a satellite phone, so everyone would stay connected.

The moment he finished, he boarded a helicopter that Japan lent them and went straight to South Africa, where the greatest number of monsters were said to be. However, Narukami called dibs on that spot, kicking Han Ling to another part of Africa.

Han Ling had no choice but to settle on Botswana above South Africa, the moment he landed, he checked the environment carefully. He combed his past knOwledge and proceeded to move through the country, running into hundreds of snake men. They would be a difficult opponent for anyone else other than Han Ling.

But Han Ling took part of the future Reclamation Movement and fought against all kinds of monsters for the lands of Earth. About 10 years in the future, humans will commence the Reclamation Movement, an act to exterminate the monsters that plague the lands of Earth. At that time, nearly every single nation took part in the fight, Han Ling himself commanded the players of Japan, and took part of clearing South Africa, hence he was most familiar with that nation.

But since Narukami beat him to it… Han Ling can only finish his job on the North side. The jobs of the other parties are to destroy the monster encampments, then move to the boss. Han Ling gave everyone a call, checking for any issues. Once everything was set, the earnest hunt began…

Han Ling battled through snake men after snake men, finding them slightly challenging due to their quick reflexes. He took nearly 30 minutes to defeat a dozen of them. But as their difficulty was high, the experience he earned was mouth-watering, just killing a couple of dozens of them gave him a level.

With high spirits and bloodthirsty eyes, his hunt continued…
