560 A Visit To The WolfHound Lair

Landon looked at Gloria's determined eyes and smiled slightly.

"Calm down little lady.

Even though it is noble to go out and fight for one's people, doing so without any real skill will not only make you lose the battle... But will also dampen the mood of those around you even further.

And in addition to that, it will only bring about grief to those who truly love you dearly."

Listening to Landon, Gloria felt like someone had thrown a bucket of cold water over her.

Did this mean that she wouldn't be able to help anyone out?

She knew that she had no real skills that would make her valuable in any fight.

But still, was there really nothing that she could do in order to hell her people?

"Little lady, even if you don't follow with us to the battlefield, there is still a way for you to be of service to us."

"Please speak kind sir!" Gloria said while opening her eyes excitedly.

Hm..... you see, there are several other ways in which one can help out in a battle.

You can either fight on the battlefield itself, help strategize or even help out the injured to the best of your capabilities.

As for the first 2, you don't qualify for them at all... Since you've never had any formal training whatsoever.

But you can still be of help when it comes to the third option.

Yes!

You will be of great assistance to us or your people by looking over the injured alongside my men.

Implore you not to look down at this position!.... Because during battles, they are one of the most crucial people needed on the field to heal the injured and save lives.

Those who heal, are the real lifesavers of life... and are on the same level as those that fight the actual battles. 

So with that said, little lady..... your mission, if you should choose to accept, will be to join the medical staff and treat the injured.

So miss Gloria Perckle, Do you accept the mission?"

"I Do!" Gloria said confidently.

"Good!"

.

After getting Gloria, Landon and some of the soldiers hastily left with one of the village hunters... Who usually accompanied the village chief to the Wolfhound Lair whenever their village chief was called upon.

Even though his injuries were somewhat heavy, it wasn't to the point where he couldn't move or do any sort of work at all.

In fact, as a hunter..... he had gotten far worse injuries from fighting several deadly animals deep in the forest.

So the 2 sword injuries that he had gotten from these bandits, weren't that gruesome when compared to a massive Hangol gripping one with its sharp razor-like claws.

so he chose to show Landon and the rest the way.

But of course before he could head out, the medical team had first stitched and bandaged his wounds properly.

And after that was done, they were finally off.

'Vrrrrmmmmmmmm!!'

Inside one of the trucks, the hunter couldn't help but marvel at how cozy and comfortable the place was.

More importantly, he had never seen a carriage with such an inferior before.

And what shocked him the most, was how fast they had arrived at the Wolfhound stronghold.

Eh?

Wasn't the journey supposed to take several hours to complete?

So why did they arrive so soon?

The hunter felt like everything was just too dreamlike for him to believe.

"Mr. Cletus... Here's a pen and a paper.

Can you show us an overall look at how the lair is like?"

"Of course sirs!

I'll do that right away!!" Cletus the Hunter said, before taking the pen and paper from one of the soldiers.

He first drew a rectangle, before filling it out with several circles and shapes which he said were buildings.

Apparently, the Lair had a total of 13 buildings within it.

He could give out all information about how the exterior buildings and surroundings within the lair looked like.

But when it came to what was actually located within each building, he had no clue on the matter... Since all the times that visited the place was to just act as the village chief's guard or escort.

So they usually stopped him outside one of the buildings there, and only allowed the g chief to go in instead.

He drew a very rough and ugly presentation of how the lake was actually set up... And also explained all that he knew to the soldiers as well.

Landon looked at the system's map and knew that there was just one secret underground tunnel within the lair, that was also surprisingly close to their underground dungeons as well.

But of course he wouldn't say anything about it... So he decided to just strategically lead his men there instead.

.

'Vrrrrmmmmmm!!'

They drove for a bit before finally parking their vehicles a certain distance from the lair's main entrance and stealthily got out from the trucks.

Of course, some people were assigned to guard the truck and the hunters, while the others would follow Landon into the lair for battle.

"Alright!

We need to hurry this up as quickly possible... Because we still need to get to the Northern A.S.A.P" Landon said, while leading the pack in.

One should know that he had previously added an entire day off into his travel journey... So that when they arrived, they would all first rest for an entire day before saving whoever the system wanted him to save.

But now they had already used time off to deal with today's matter, which meant that their rest day was now gone.

So they had to quickly wrap this up and get fast!

.

And just like that, their second battle for the day had begun.

'Phiew! Phiew! Phiew! Phiew! Phiew! Phiew!'
