The Martial Unity

It seemed as though Shionel Confederation was unable to get a break from shocking news surrounding the Shionel Dungeon time and time again.

Even prior to the first appearance of the Voider, things had been exciting and riveting, but that was because the Shionel Dungeon was still a brand-new novelty. Even the slightest bit of new news was extremely interesting.

After a while, things cooled down as a bit of a routine entered the nation with the dungeon. It was hard remaining as extremely excited with the same stuff happening for the eleventh time in a row.

Things had changed with the arrival of the Voider who made things exciting once more, with the various surprises and astonishing feats that they achieved.

The latest shock, however, didn't seem to have anything to do with them. Many reports came in reporting of a flood of ants that assaulted many Martial Squires.

This was new.

Adventurer after adventurer began narrating tales of how they were trying to explore new routes before giant people-sized monster ants came their way and attacked them. Reports indicated that each individual ant was not much, but together they were a menace, an overwhelming majority of Martial Squires simply chose to not engage with the monsters unprepared and promptly retreated away.

Many of the newer adventurers had arrived with the latest wave of incoming Martial Squires into the nation, they were completely overwhelmed by the ants, and many parties went missing or were confirmed dead.

The country was shocked at the news of the many Martial Artists reporting the same nightmarish scene over and over. Many began speculating what happened, looking into the information available.
