[Dean Loin has requested for you to join his Raid Team]

[Would you like to join the Raid Team?]

"Yes," I muttered.

There was no change to the system. Even my status stayed the same, but that was within expectations, so I just leaned back while staring up at the stars.

The raid team part of the system is used for the raid leader to keep track of everybody, including their deaths, state of being, or their emotional range.

After a few more minutes, we soon left our gathering spot with 25 people in our party, which attracted lots of attention, not because of the sheer number, but the consequences that usually come with parties as big as this.

"Don't worry. I'll make sure nobody dies," The raid leader assured us, but everybody was still a bit weary as his presence was overwhelming.

I had pretty much no chance of winning against him on a one-on-one fight… but why should I do that when all this easy prey is around me?

"Tch… [Night Vision] doesn't work here as well…." I muttered upon seeing the splotches of shadows lining the corridor.

"Everyone! Get into formation! Tanks in the front, spearman behind, swordsman and assassins to the side, and finally, long rangers at the very back! Remember, if the monsters ever touch our porters, we're practically dead!" The raid leader shouted as we shuffled into position.

He's right. It's not because we'll run out of materials and supplies due to the porter dying, but if they ever reach the porter… that means everybody else has died.

It was a fear tactic that encouraged everybody to do their best.

But, it can also be very embarrassing if you come out of a dungeon with all your porters slaughtered… well, for the leader at least.

I lined up behind one of the tanks in front of me, who wielded a massive metal shield as we walked down the stone hallway.

And just as I had thought, there were no monsters until we arrived in the actual cavern, which was as big as usual.

Some of the adventurers here were seeing this sight for the first time, so they couldn't help but gawk at the view… until the stench hit.

A few members of the backline threw up, but we proceeded forward, still stiff in formation.

Now… Do you know about the change in the dungeon or not?

Suddenly, the green acid lake at the bottom of the hill began to bubble, revealing a horde of 26 slimes that charged straight towards us.

I glanced at the leader, who was unwavering as usual, but thankfully I took a position towards the side, next to the assassins and swordsman, so I was able to get a full view of his face.

Nice... His pupils have dilated, meaning he didn't expect this.

He also doesn't seem like the type of guy to bait people of my kind out, so that means I can proceed.

"Everyone! Relax! There may be a lot, but with our numbers, we can easily destroy them!" He shouts, filling the raid team with adrenaline.

His words were motivating, something a natural leader should possess.

"Wait...! Wait...! And… Tanks block them!" He shouts, and the tanks shield bash the slimes, sending them flying backward.

The slimes all dipped their green and black bodies back into the lake before charging straight at us again, but we were already prepared.

"Spearman, go!" The leader shouts as we all stab in between the shields, killing a few before backing up.

The swordsman and assassins then followed through by killing a few more slimes before backing up as well.

As the slimes weren't intelligent beings, they kept charging towards us, but we kept repeating the same process without wasting the mage's magic power or the archer's arrows.

Nobody used a gun because they are typically used for human on human warfare rather than human on monsters.

Monsters usually have tougher skin that is strengthened by the mana in the air, so typically, bullets don't work unless it's a high caliber sniper rifle… but even then, they can only do so much.

Arrows, on the other hand, work much better because of their wide surface area and unique design, which helps them break through the skin, but that doesn't mean they're much better than bullets and guns, so… you could argue both are pretty useless.

? You typically don't see archers in the higher-level raid teams unless they're very good at what they do.

"Alright! Let's back up!" The leader shouts upon seeing an even larger wave of slimes charging towards us from out of the lake.

Wait… are the slimes…

"Hey, Kid! Back up!" The leader shouts at me, so I snap out of my thoughts and jog backward.

"It's alright if you're getting cold feet. I remember my first D-rank dungeon was so scary that I couldn't even walk, so you're doing better than me," A spearman beside me cheers me up as we soon stop atop the hill.

"Oh, I was just thinking about something," I respond, and the man chuckles to himself a bit before returning to a serious demeanor with sharp eyes that were practically piercing through the slimes themselves.

These slimes… Are they coming out of that lake?

My question was soon answered as another horde, but this time with an insane number of 100 slimes, comes charging out of the lake.

The unwavering leader had a drop of sweat run down his cheek as we all backed up farther up the hill.

"Keep the high ground!" He shouts, and we all nod while awaiting the massive horde of slimes.

It was so quiet yet so loud.

Nobody was saying anything... Even our heavy breathing couldn't be heard.

But, the sound of the slimes jumping towards us mingled together, creating an awful sound that echoed throughout the cave.

I heard somebody throw up from behind me after finally breathing, but what awaited their nostrils was the disgusting stench in the air.

SQUISH… SQUISH… SQUISH

"Get ready! Wait… wait… wait… TANKS CHARGE! The leader shouts at the top of his lungs, and he joins the fight this time.

He combined his power with the tank's shield bashes, allowing him to kill a few, even without using any skills.

"EVERYONE ACTIVATE YOUR SKILLS! WE CAN'T SAVE ANY MORE STAMINA OR MANA!" The leader shouts.

We all raise our weapons into the air, allowing our respective colors to coat our weapons.

"We will win!" The leader shouts after tearing through another few slimes.

"WE WILL WIN!" We all shout collectively.
