As soon as such threads began to spread on the community bulletin, a group of survivors, who had been trying to find the way of survival independently, began to gather one by one.

They wanted to participate in the alliance for the upcoming battle with the Red Orcs. In fact, they already knew they could not survive if they didn't join now.

And they witnessed so many events through the community bulletin, so they knew well what choices they had to make in a moment of crisis.

Their conclusion was they needed to join hands with the Necromancer for survival.

That's why they began to gather around the allied forces led by Sungwoo.

“I hear that the survivor group in Ilsan are coming to join us. They have a force of around 200. They're larger than we think, but strange enough, they have been keeping a low profile until now.”

“Another survivor group in Namyangju also contacted us. They said they would take five buses to come here. Man, this is going to be a…”

So, the leadership of the Liberation Guild was confused. Obviously, they needed more troops for the battle with the Red Orcs. Besides, they could beef up their forces on the occasion of the upcoming fight.

But the problem was that what the survivors regarded as their pivotal was not the Crusader Commander of the Liberation Guild, but the Necromancer.

“What has the Commander told us to do?”

The Crusader Team member who brought the message asked Minhum.

“Well, we have to accept them. We have to take them on our side. We can't send them back now.”

The war was coming soon, but their troops were infinitely small, compared with the Red Orcs.

“We're going to have a commanders' meeting soon. So, if they arrive, arrange them into groups. Let me come back and confirm it.”

“Got it!”

They could not figure out how many “Red Orc” troops appeared in Kimpo.

According to one article posted in the community bulletin, the number of Red Orcs was so large as to fill the vast Kimpo field. Obviously, they were a large force.

Such a tremendous Red Orc force was now advancing eastward towards them. The survivor group in Mokdong informed them through the community bulletin that they were raided several hours ago. It meant that they already arrived at the place not far from here.

In the meantime, the allies of the Liberation Guild secured an outpost at the intersection of the entrance to Kyongin Expressway.

“We're going to start the frontline commanders meeting now.”

At 7 p.m., the commanders' meeting was being held in the largest tent.

“We have deployed surveillance troops on all the bridges, but since we don't know when and where the enemies will cross the bridge, we're going to launch a magic drone to monitor the enemy's movement in 24 hours.”

While Minhum was briefing them, the leaders of each group glanced at Sungwoo sitting at the end.

Although they knew the importance of a joint operation, they were conscious that the fate of the battle would be decided by the Necromancer.

Minhum was bothered by the commanders' attitude but continued to give the briefing. But he was stopped when one of the Crusader Team members came into the tent.

“Commander! Just a minute ago one survivor flew here from the west.”

When he delivered the urgent news, there was a moment of silence in the conference room.

Junghoon at the head table opened his mouth.

“He flew here?”

“Yes, he flew. But what he got aboard was rather unusual.”

“…”

Unusual?

In the end, Junghoon stood up from his seat, then went out of the tent without saying anything. Then, other commanders stood up and followed him.

A team of Crusaders surrounded something near the tent.

“Hey, be careful! Don't go close!”

“You're going to be killed if you are pecked by that beak.”

It was a huge monster, a flying creature with an eagle's head and a lion's body.

His body seemed to be bigger than most bulls.

“Rest assured! He doesn't bite you unless you attack him first. He is good.”

It was a ‘Griffin'.

“Good boy, good boy.”

A woman was gently stroking Griffin's neck. The Crusader man who brought the news pointed at her and said, “Commander, I'm talking about that woman.”

When he said that, the woman hurriedly turned her head and looked at them.

Then she shouted, with a sad expression.

“Please help me!”

“…”

What she said next was just unbelievable and quite unexpected.

“Well, a few hours ago a huge number of Chinese players landed in Kanghwa!!”

Everybody began to be agitated at her remarks.

“What did you say? Who is coming?”

“China? She said the players were Chinese, right?”

“They came to our land from China? Why?”

The woman was about to cry.

“They came to our village and slaughtered the villagers! They came aboard dozens of fishing boats, and maybe they will come here soon through Han River!”

At that moment, everyone instantly felt that this war would not be over even after they beat the Red Orcs.
