[17 hours 10 minutes]
It had been almost an hour since the sea of Abyss creatures that had attacked the base retreated. However, instead of being happy and relieved, the expressions of everyone at the base were filled with anxiety and distress. In fact, Emery and the others were all getting more and more tense as the minutes ticked by.
"Do you sense anything?"
Emery asked the red-haired girl about the situation, as she had sent her familiar from the base and they were currently 600 miles away.
"No, nothing. It's all empty. There's not even a single Crawler in sight!"
By this time, all three hundred acolytes of Platoon 3 had heard about what happened. Naturally, none of them felt good about the possibility of having a stage 7 Abyss creature heading their way.
From on top of the wall, seeing the empty yellow plain with no Abyss creatures in sight, it only felt as if they were facing the calm sea before the incoming storm.
They are coming... they are coming...
