章 1061: Ambush [Pt 1]

'How many markers are these? A dozen? No, they're more than that...'

My goggles were picking up a lot of signals around our group, making it clear that we were surrounded.

'What should we do? Pretend that we haven't detected them yet? Should we see what they'll do?'

There were a few things to consider when taking this sudden situation into account, such as—

"We know you are there. Show yourselves!" Aria's voice suddenly interrupted my analytic line of thought, sending everything crashing down.

'Nooo! Why would you do that?' I nearly cried out but held my thoughts deep inside me.

There was no point dwelling in regret now. I could only consider what to do now that Aria had revealed our knowledge of their presence.

'I mean... it's more reasonable that we would detect them, considering Aria's strength.'

"Hahahahahahahaha... hahahahaha... haaaa..."

Suddenly, echoes of laughter began echoing from all around us.
