"Huh...it's probably safe to get here."

The saviors of Fran Province, with Fran, have finally found a place for a short rest after a tiring and rushing march.

Their luck was not very good. Although they moved to the safe zone early, they did not encounter any supplies available along the way, and even the food was collected in a small part. The most annoying thing was that on the way, they were also robbed without shame by saviors from Daji Province. In order to prevent the reduction of personnel, Fran had to hand over most of the food. For this reason, the girl who led her subordinates to act as a boss for the first time was very depressed.

"It's all the fault of that guy! He must be targeting us on purpose!"

After thinking about it, Fran blamed all the troubles on the guy who deliberately made trouble since the meeting.

"That...Fran, no matter how much he said, that person is also the 'protagonist'..."

A savior from Fran Province happened to hear her resentful thoughts, and couldn't help but come close to her and whisper to remind her.

"Maybe, it is because we have been saying bad things about him behind his back that we are so unlucky because of his ability..."

"That's not the case! The protagonist and the like... If it's really that powerful, what do we field saviors do?"

Although he knew that he could not spread his anger on his companions at this time, Fran couldn't help but want to vent loudly.

“…It would be great if Mary Sue was here.”

When a savior saw this scene, he whispered to each other in a low voice.

"Yes, yes... Mary Sue seems to have a good relationship with the protagonist. If it were her, it would probably bring us good luck..."

"But she doesn't have a good relationship with Fran."

"Yes... it's a headache."

“…”

These whispering voices faintly fell into Fran's ears, and also made the young and inexperienced leader even more irritable.

"No... we can't follow that guy's rhythm anymore! We have to find a way to take the lead!"

She tried hard to calm herself down while thinking about the next countermeasures.

The current situation is that although many companions have gathered, because of this, everyone lacks the necessary supplies, and the weapons and equipment they obtained along the way can only arm a few people.

If this continues, the number of people will become a burden for them. This is what happened when she was robbed by a robbery of a big food saver. Faced with the robbery of only three or five people on the other side, she could not even organize a decent counterattack.

"If you can't use your ability to win, you can only follow the rules of the game."

Soon, she realized that she had not considered the blind spots she had previously been subconsciously resistant to because of her thinking.

The number of people... Although in most cases it can become an advantage, if they follow the rules of the game specified by that guy, now their excessive number of people has become a burden and the largest and most conspicuous target on the island.

"Can't continue like this..."

With this in mind, Franxun summoned everyone and then expressed his thoughts seriously.

"It seems that we can only split the brigade of troops and everyone will act in small teams - I will distribute the existing materials to all teams evenly so that everyone can have certain self-protection ability and combat effectiveness. In this way, everyone can also search for materials in small quantities. When everyone is armed, we will select a place to gather..."

Surprisingly, it seemed that it was a very good strategy. After Fran finished speaking, he failed to make all his subordinates cheer as usual.

“Don’t you do this from the beginning?”

"If you search for supplies now, you can't find anything."

"What should we do if we separate, who have neither weapons nor equipment?"

"Ah... it's fine no matter what. I'm so hungry now... I might as well eat the food before, but it turned out that all the foodies were cheaper..."

“…”

Looking at the team that was almost disintegrating, Fran wanted to be a big thunder several times, but in the end he could only hold back.

She knew that her leader's credibility had been strongly shaken in this short period of time. If she didn't find a way to solve the problem, then when this damn activity ended and she returned to Fran Province, her position as a leader would be in danger.

"...Listen to me, this time the situation is because my judgment is not considered. However, things have reached this point. If we don't work together, we will definitely be defeated by the saviors from other provinces. I think everyone must not want to see that situation, let alone...because that guy was laughed at?"

“… Then, what exactly do we do now?”

In the silence, a savior finally asked this question tentatively.

"Just as I said just now, everyone will first turn the whole into pieces and search the nearby areas--the teams should not be separated too far. If there is an emergency, they can rescue each other..."

Before Fran could finish his words, the watch on his wrist suddenly started to buzz and vibrate.

"So what's wrong?"

She looked at her wrist in confusion - the rest of the saviors also made the same moves as her at this time.

"Tip: The security area is being defined... After the calculation is completed, the security scope will begin to be narrowed in one hour."

"Special reminder: The Demon King has entered the safe area. In five minutes, he will launch an indiscriminate attack on all survivors in the random range. The random attack area is being generated...」

"This is...had abhorrent!"

The next second, Fran almost couldn't help but smash the watch on his wrist.

Because, their current location is not only quite far from the safe area defined next time, but the most hateful thing is that they are now in the center of the area that will be attacked by the "Demon King" in five minutes!

"Aren't you already in the safe zone...what is that devil?"

"Anyway, it must be something more terrifying than Slime!"

"Everyone, get out of here quickly!"

“…”

The saviors of Fran Province have begun to mess up. The retreat that should have been ordered has turned into a messy escape. Not only is it impossible to maintain a reasonable formation, but the front and back of the team have even begun to be disconnected due to the differences in degree.

"Damn...Damn, Abominable, Abominable, Abominable!"

Fran, who watched this scene, had to make up his mind to abandon some of the savior partners who were not good at it in the way of a hero cutting off his arm, and then forced the weapons and equipment to lead this group of people to advance quickly.

Five minutes were only barely enough for them to escape from the edge of the "Demon King Attack Zone". Moreover, after this action, they, who were already tired, became weak because they consumed more energy and physical strength, and had to choose to stop moving forward again in order to recover slightly.

However, after only less than half a minute of rest, Fran suddenly heard a series of loud bangs coming from afar.

"What...what happened?"

She stood up subconsciously and looked in the direction where the sound came.

The same actions as her included other saviors, and among them, a girl with all eyesight suddenly screamed uneasy.

"Yes...is other people! Someone is attacking them..."

"attack?"

Fran was stunned at first, and then immediately reacted.

"Is it...the devil?"

"But...probably, but...this person...is so strange..."

"What's strange?"

"She...she's wearing a bandage in one hand, looking a bit like... like..."

It was obviously the first time I saw the savior girl in this kind of situation, and she was so nervous that she was about to cry.

"Like the White Queen in the Logistics Department..."

“…”

When Fran's first reaction was... this was absolutely impossible.

However, the reality in front of her quickly gave her a heavy blow.

"Hurry...run!"

"I'm going to be caught up!"

"Help...I...I don't want to die! I don't want to be treated like Slime!"

When the backward saviors of Fran Province appeared in their sight, scrambling to the forefront, they had no arrogance and reserve as saviors, and they tried to escape in an unprecedented embarrassing manner. The sound of approaching roars followed by the approaching roars seemed to be the countdown for their lives, approaching them step by step. Fran, who saw all this with his own eyes, rushed in without thinking and tried to save his companions.

"Can't go!"

The saviors around her pulled her hard.

"If you go in... you will be attacked together! That's the White Queen!"

That's right, the one who appeared behind the saviors who were running away with a leisurely posture and fucked with one arm at the same time was not the White Queen...who was it?

Her fists looked very ordinary, but every punch would easily cause a sound explosion. The force of her fists collided with the ground and exploded, forming deep pits with a diameter of more than one meter, like a shell.

It is worth mentioning that such an attack is not targeted - it seems that the boss simply waved his fist at will and attacked him in any direction he might attack. It is precisely because of this that the fugitives who were not targeted were able to escape all the way here.

Despite this, when they barely escaped from the "Demon King Attack Area" marked on the map, the remaining girls were only a few. After being affected by boxing wind and explosions, they were all judged to be "dead" and were injected with anesthesia needles by their watches, and they fell to the ground and lay on the way to escape.

"……Why!"

Under such circumstances, Fran could no longer control her emotions. When the White Queen came to the boundary of the "attack area" and casually glanced at them, the survivors, she couldn't help but rush forward and tried to question each other.

"...According to the rules of the game, I can't answer your question - in that guy's words, I'm just a guest appearance as a bomber, and there's still a big place waiting for me to run."

Speaking of this, the White Queen glanced at Fran, who was staring at him, and then sighed.

"But... I still have to say something."

She shook her head and turned and left.
