Another Terran Territory

At the sight of saviors and survivors, the heavy atmosphere from both parties immediately lit up. 

Instead of speaking, Garan simply led the bigger team to continue on as if nothing happened. They could catch up eventually, but their loved ones couldn't wait any more. 

Not to mention, more mobs could be attracted by all this blood. There were so many refugees and only over a dozen of them—they wouldn't be able to protect all of these people even if they had an overwhelming strength advantage against the monsters they encountered.

So this was why the team didn't stop to chat. Rather the two groups simply converged into a line. 

The refugees understood and followed, and behaved, while unable to stop giving admiring gazes at the soldiers but were afraid to act too closely. 

Although they had good impressions of soldiers, the corrupt guards of their former territories unconsciously made them afraid of people in power.
