Reincarnated in the game world ~ A gamer's beginning to [Dungeon job hunting recommendation]-Chapter 659Vol. 11 - - Temple Saber’s split offense - Eden’s base on target?

The west end of the map. It was the opening scene of Temple Saber's plan—to lead a simultaneous attack on two Giant Castles.

Their west-side team had seven members, six on mounts and the last one being healer.

Their opponents were Ester and Karua who'd spotted them sweeping small scales just as they'd rushed to the location as soon Rina's instruction came for them. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

The message had also been conveyed to Sierra, Shizu, and Mert, albeit this three-member team were some distance away so they couldn't hit the spot immediately

The others, like Lana and Rika, were guarding the guild's base. It was to ensure no trouble occurred.

«Ester-san, do not force yourself if it appears to be too much. It wouldn't hurt much if the opponent scores Northwest».

"Understood. Then I will prioritise joining Sierra-dono's team first."

Even without a healer, the coordination and uniformity between the six members was eye-popping. It wasn't a sound idea to face the opponent in their forte, which had paved the path to A-rank once, with just them.

"Karua, we're taking a temporary retreat. Let's put up a protection barrier."

"Hn. They seem tough."

They also had warnings from Zephyr about the opponent's capability. If they'd target the healer believing them to be their weakest link, it was more than likely Temple Saber would get them.

After deciding on their retreat, Ester and Karua headed toward east while sweeping squares along the way, putting them into protection period, while leaving few red squares still standing.

The protection period acted as a barrier, preventing Temple Saber from pursuing them while the duo went on to group up with Sierra's team. Temple Saber set their focus back on Giant Castle noticing the opponent was out of their range.

"It doesn't seem like we can interfere much. They look tough."

Mert murmured as he affirmed Temple Saber's action through monocle. Ester and Karua had met them around the same time as Temple Saber returned to target Giant Castle.

"They have five advanced job members. Each of them are well known as well. I think they're currently at LV15 of their advanced jobs."

"We also have four advanced job members. Putting aside differences in personnel, we are most lacking in levels."

Shizu gave a general detail on their opponent. Mert nodded back, further explaining.

At present, where Intermediate-high dungeon was the last threshold, level 15 was the highest anyone could reach.

Meanwhile, only Sierra, Ester, Karua and recently promoted Shizu had the advanced job in their group. They also were severely lacking in level, except Ester, which put them in disadvantage on either side.

So, even if they force a skirmish, the result might not end up in their favour.

«Mert-san, if confrontation seems impossible—»

"Then we should focus on small castles, eh."

Since their one way was out, they decided on squares. If the opponent had wanted to keep tight as a group, they couldn't act recklessly and go all over. It was their chance to secure the advantage and stack up points this time while their opponent dealt with Giant Castle.

While keeping a watchful gaze on their opponent, Ester and others split up, racing for the quick takedown of squares. Amidst that, the team received another message from Rina.

«Temple Saber is on the move! They've split into two teams, one is targeting Northwest Giant Castle, while the other is heading for our base!»

"What is the exact plan, Rina?"

«The base, of course! Everyone, please immediately head toward the East! The interception point is six square to the west from our base!» (S-13)

"Understood."

After bringing down «Northwest Giant Castle», Temple Saber split their team. One set their eyes on «Northeast Giant Castle» which was under Eden's banner, while the other turned for Eden's base. It was crystal clear to Mert and others which required their immediate intervention.

The group of five immediately rushed for the location Rina guided them to. The team targeting their base consisted of four members, so it was a 5v4 challenge.

"It's an ambush!"

Cassand soon noticed Eden's team presence, his inner befuddled at how they'd accurately predicted their action—it would perhaps be better to say he was surprised at their surprise to feel it on the field. He had seen the inter-class competition, and knew Eden utilises «Dragon's Miniature Garden».

They'd just expected them to split and intercept.

"Ridiculous! This is time to let everyone know Temple Saber isn't someone to be trifled with! Let's go!"

" "Oooo!!" "

Cassand's morale speech received everyone's energetic shouts.

To the Temple Saber, they'd no weak points, and on the contrary, confrontation their opponent head-on was just right on their playbook.

" " "«Horse Drive»!" " "

Three members promptly invoked their skill. It was a drive skill activated when riding a «Horse». Their speed rose dramatically as they charged toward Mert and others.

"Prepare to intercept! «Quick Magic»! «Haste Circle»! «Frigid Slow»!"

"«Quad Aegis of Virtue»! «Art of War - Quad Aegis of Virtue»!"

"I am initiating offense. Please watch out for the eyes—«Flash Bullet»!"

On Eden's end, «Wiseman» Mert casted quick buffs on the team while launching offensive magic on the opponent. The attacks had low probability of inflicting «Heavy» and «Freeze».

Shizu followed with «Flash Bullet» which had a chance to «Blind» her enemies. But—

"They dodged!"

"They seemed to have resistance to «Blind» too."

The charging horses changed their direction from straight to tilted, and escaped from the range of Mert's attack. Shizu's «Flash Bullet» made contact, but the opponent was unfazed.

Ester guessed they must've «Blind Resistance» skill.

If so, then what about others? Shizu had more than just «Flash Bullet». She switched her method.

In this way, while Zephyr's squad faced the guildmaster, the second Eden's team faced Temple Saber's sub-guildmaster at the same time.
