After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply

But... two level 9 warriors, and one overly panicked scholar who had completely lost her ability to fight, subduing a level 15 Murderous Crab, is it really possible?

As they pinned their hopes on a miracle, two loud bangs sounded under their feet,

like two Demon Gods crawling out of hell, two Murderous Crabs appeared that were no smaller than the first.

One of them even had a stronger aura, reaching level 16!

At that moment, the miracle in the hearts of the Earth Tiger Adventure Team members disappeared.

Lisa knelt on the ground, shivering and closing her eyes.

She recalled her short life, her sick mother was still waiting for her return from adventure, the promise to buy her brother a shield also could not be fulfilled.

Just like the vast majority of adventurers, Lisa would end her ordinary and common life here.

"Dark Whip!"

Suddenly, an explosion rang beside her ear.

Then came the Murderous Crab's hissing strange cry.

What's going on?

Lisa opened her eyes, trembling with fear.

What she saw was a black energy whip, coiled around the giant crab claw.

The whip pulled to the side, and a crab claw fell off directly, landing on the ground with a thump.

The second whip, threw the Murderous Crab 'heels over head', exposing its white underbelly.

The third whip, the whip tightened, striking like a steel rod, smashing the creature's underbelly inward.

The Murderous Crab's several pairs of claws trembled once, then curled up, motionless.

All in just three seconds.

A level 15 Murderous Crab, just died?

Lisa first was stunned, then her eyes moistened, immediately realizing, she was saved.

A high-level adventurer had come to their rescue!

"Earth Spear Spell!"

Following that, two sharp earth spears shot out, precisely embedding themselves into the mouths of the two Murderous Crabs.

Lisa and her companions looked shocked, seeing that this basic Earth Mage technique instantly killed two level 15 Murderous Crabs!

Earth system indeed suppresses Shell-type Magical Creatures, but not to such an unbelievable extent.

"I understand."

"It's a veteran Rock-level Squad!"

Kodo, the warrior, excitedly looked towards the petite Mage who was casting the Earth Spear Spell.

She was slightly over one and a half meters tall, wearing a large pointed Mage Hat, and below her cloak, she had pure white silk stockings trimmed with gold.

This seemingly harmless young girl, however, effortlessly killed two terrifying Murderous Crabs with a simple gesture...

Earth Tiger Adventure Team had exerted all their might and still could not kill one, but in this young girl's hands, just a wave of her Magic Wand, casually casting two Earth Spear Spells, finished off the Murderous Crabs.

As simple as swatting two mosquitoes.

The prowess of the Rock-level Squad staggeringly impacted Kodo's mind.

It also made him doubt the purpose of their recent painstaking efforts at Breeze River Beach fighting Magical Creatures.

The team's all-out efforts were no match for someone else's casual swing of a Magic Wand.

Even their team leader Bob had lost his life.

Kodo clenched his teeth, his face filled with reluctance.

"Thank the World Tree Goddess..."

Lisa's body suddenly went weak, and she collapsed onto the muddy ground.

"Why haven't you left yet?"

The three-member group, suspected to be the Rock-level Squad, approached.

It was indeed the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team.

Lin Da frowned as he looked at Lisa's group and a headless body on the ground, sighing.

All they could do was silently pray.

"It was you."

Lisa's mind cleared up a bit.

The ones who had intervened and saved them were acquaintances.

Back then, Captain Bob was worried that the 'Eye of Wisdom' was stealing their business.

But he didn't expect that when they met again, Bob would be lying on the ground, never to open his eyes again.

Lisa sobbed quietly, "If we had returned earlier, there would have been no trouble..."

Lin Da offered simple words of comfort.

He then inquired and learned that recently the number of Murderous Crabs had increased, and their level was rising.

His expression grew serious, warning the few members of the Earth Tiger Adventure Team, "You all hurry back, inform the Adventurer's Guild, say..."

"Breeze River Beach is very likely to experience a Monster Tide!"

A Monster Tide, a term that lingers in the memory of most adventurers.

Lisa and the others last saw this word in their school textbooks.

"Monster Tide?"

The three members of Earth Tiger exchanged glances, all looking somewhat bewildered.

As White Dove City being a safe inland city, adventurers there had never witnessed a Monster Tide.

Suddenly hearing this term, they felt an unreal sense of confusion.

Since Lin Da had said it, even if just to save face, Lisa and her friends felt compelled to suppress their doubts and nodded in agreement.

The Earth Tiger Adventure Team returned to White Dove City.

Meanwhile, Lin Da and his group stayed at Breeze River Beach, continuing to fight the Murderous Crabs.

In just one hour, they had encountered over a dozen.

The lowest level was 15.

Level 15 magical creatures weren't considered formidable.

But for Breeze River Beach, an area with an average level of 9, this was highly unusual.

"The Monster Tide is coming soon."

Lin Da collected the spoils of war with a solemn expression.

The system's notification bar had accumulated quite a few messages:

[Killed level 15 Murderous Crab and earned 150 Mystical Points (triggered event bonus, an additional 150 Mystical Points)].

[Killed...]

Lin Da thought: During the event period, the Mystical Points from Murderous Crabs were doubled.

In just a little while, he had gathered 4200 Mystical Points.

There were three days left until the outbreak of the Murderous Crab frenzy, yet signs of their mass emergence were already apparent.

Recalling the most thriving scene in the game: The screen filled with Murderous Crabs, freezing frame by frame, every player happily grinding away, dying meant simply respawning in the city and continuing through a teleport...

But adventurers in Another World couldn't resurrect!

Murderous Crabs, a type of magical creature that reproduced very quickly, if not dealt with swiftly, they would occupy all surrounding areas.

One life turns into two, two into four, proliferating across the land...

Under the massive base number of magical creatures, Leader Level Rare Magical Beasts could be born.

Even if White Dove City had walls for protection, they might not hold.

This kind of wildfire must be extinguished from its source.

Lin Da looked ahead at the turbid 'Qingfeng River' resembling the Yellow River.

There were still three days until the outbreak of the Monster Tide.

If the Adventurer's Guild and City Hall issued a joint order to mobilize adventurers fully, extinguishing this Monster Tide would not be out of the question.

However.

Until nightfall, Lin Da had seen no one come to investigate.

He wondered, had Lisa not notified the Adventurer's Guild, or had something happened on the way?

The outbreak of a Monster Tide was no trivial matter, Lin Da and his group headed back, toward the Adventurer's Guild.

...

Two hours earlier.

"Breeze River Beach might erupt in a Monster Tide? Miss, you must be joking, it's been many years since the last Tide; it's impossible, absolutely impossible!"

An Adventurer's Guild, a male staff member with brown short hair, laughed heartily and waved dismissively at the anxious-faced Lisa:

"I just had adventurers from Breeze River Beach this morning completing missions, and they mentioned no Monster Tide."

"It might, it might happen!"

Lisa was also somewhat unsure.

The appearance of high-level Murderous Crabs at Breeze River Beach was true, but to decide based on this that a Monster Tide would erupt was indeed premature.

Any other adventurer would at most suspect that something unusual was happening at Breeze River Beach.

The only person who would assertively predict a Monster Tide would probably be Lin Da alone.

"Then you all should at least send someone to check it out."

Lisa said with less confidence, "The Breeze River Beach, marked as a low-risk area on the map, yet having level 15 large Murderous Crabs, isn't that strange! It could cost many unaware adventurers their lives!"

"Alright, alright, got it, I will ask the superiors and arrange for the investigation department to check, results can be delivered within thirty working days."

The man yawned lazily, "For now, I'll issue a notice that high-level Murderous Crabs might be spotted at Breeze River Beach, would that be alright?"

"Thirty working days?" Lisa was stunned, "How can that be acceptable, why can't you send someone to check it out right away, what if there really is a Monster Tide?"

"Everything has to go through procedures, abide by the rules. If signs of a Monster Tide are confirmed, the Adventurer's Guild will rapidly organize manpower to suppress it!"

Impatient, the man tapped his pen, "Next."

"But thirty working days is too late..."

Lisa wanted to argue further, but a burly scar-faced adventurer pushed forward behind her, saying gruffly, "A Monster Tide, are you serious? Believing in a Monster Tide might happen is less believable than betting I'd get Epic-level Equipment!"

The surrounding adventurers burst into laughter.

The last Monster Tide was centuries ago.

Back then, the area around White Dove City was teeming with fierce magical creatures.

The pioneering adventurers had swept through them time and again, and now only the weak ones remained.

A Monster Tide's outbreak required Leader Level magical creatures.

The current wilderness near White Dove City couldn't produce such high-level creatures!

Amid the teasing laughter, Lisa hung her head and withdrew from the service window line.

"I think I messed up," Lisa approached two comrades leaning against the door, dejectedly stating, "The Guild isn't willing to send anyone over."

"Ah, there's nothing we can do, we tried our best."

"We still have to take care of our captain's affairs, let's focus on that first," Kodo patted Lisa's shoulder, consoling her.

Lisa hesitated a moment, then nodded and left the Adventurer's Guild.

Fundamentally, she didn't quite believe Lin Da's words herself.

Coming here was entirely in gratitude for Lin Da saving her life.

The message had been relayed to the Adventurer's Guild.

If they didn't believe it, there was nothing she could do.

Being optimistic, handling it within thirty working days, and tomorrow being within those thirty days, it shouldn't cause a delay, should it?

Currently, the guild hall wasn't paying any mind to the abnormalities at Breeze River Beach.

All their attention was captured by a live strategy display on the big screen in the hall.

Inside was a dark, gloomy swamp where a red-haired girl was battling a group of ugly half serpent-people.

On the screen, Battle Qi and magic intermingled, each second teeming with tension, making it hard to breathe.
