"I hope my worries are unfounded..."
The Contractor leader muttered to himself, refocusing his attention on the other Contractors still within the Secret Realm.
But his worries did not affect the Contractors ahead.
Upon seeing this message in the channel, the members of the team in the forest sighed in relief.
Thinking they could retreat, their hands moved faster, and even their injuries seemed less severe. With a quick clean-up, they immediately began to leave.
Perhaps due to a change in mindset, the atmosphere within the team became much more relaxed.
Along the way, they even had the mind to commentate on and observe the Extraordinary Plants around them, as well as the strange Low-tier Spiritual Beasts they encountered.
Not long after they left, a small "Spiritual Beast" the size of a hand emerged from the grass at the edge of the battlefield.
Its entire body resembled a fat snake with four legs and two large ears, and it blended completely with the surroundings.
