The team continued walking, but the entire atmosphere had changed.

Earlier, the team felt professional, calm, and collected.

Now, there was anger and hostility in the air.

Over the next hour, Shang found another Early General Stage beast and made the team avoid it.

Then, they finally found the next Initial General Stage beast.

Even though there was hostility in the air, the teamwork was still impeccable, and everyone did their job.

The only difference was the lack of communication after the beast was dead.

Astor tried to lift the spirits of everyone, but he was mostly ignored.

In the end, Astor could only sigh and wait for the hunt to be over.

Two hours later, the team had hunted two more beasts, leaving only one spot open in Sarah's Space Ring.

This was an insanely profitable day for them.

Even with Shang's share, they had all earned several days' worth of gold in these couple of hours.

Hunting in the Caves was dangerous but very profitable.

Sarah decided that the team would walk back. If they met another beast on their journey, great, but if they didn't, it would also be okay. Being too greedy and going further away from their exit was a recipe for disaster.

The team avoided a couple of beasts on their way back, and everything was proceeding smoothly.

That was, until a certain moment.

Shang's eyes suddenly narrowed. "You run back!" Shang shouted as he took out his big sword. "It's time for me to do my job."

Elver and Astor looked with confusion and surprise at Shang while Sarah narrowed her eyes.

"You heard him!" Sarah shouted as she accelerated. "Move it!"

As Sarah left, Elver and Astor looked nervously at Shang.

Then, they felt vibrations coming from the ground.
