Chapter 1699: 1699. First Met Friend

It was easy for everyone to feel that it was too quiet. They were all in the mindset that the moment their feet hit the sands that they would be facing monsters. However, because the beach had long been guarded by a natural coral reef maze, not many large or dangerous monsters had taken up residence on the beach. Instead, there were only those weaker monsters that led when the boats neared them. 

This was a good sign for the immediate area though. There was a better chance that they would be able to locate the trail that Ventus and Walker had spotted along with following it. Walker wanted to keep more people back when they arrived, Terron had already made a move to set up a perimeter on the beach and was prepared to move in to the more solid earth. 

The other soldiers were looking around while supplies were unloaded with care. Even the mages were hesitant to make a move without the express permission from any leading figure.
