The Melancholy of Anne Georgia

After defeating a few Giant Skeletons, the group slowed down even more.

During the briefing, Rhode had warned them that they were rushing against time and had to hurry up, so everyone assumed that they would be running all over the place defeating enemy after enemy then moving on to the next.

But that wasn't the case.

The whole group moved as slow as a turtle. Whenever they took three steps forward, they would take two steps back. It was painfully slow — even slower than taking a casual jog in the forest. But when encountering an enemy, Rhode would suddenly speed up and kill them as fast as lightning, roughly finishing the fight within thirty seconds before quickly hiding and repeat the process on the next enemy once more.

To be honest, these kinds of guerrilla tactics weren't well-received by some in the group — it could even be said to be downright embarrassing.

"Hmph."
