Alena also agreed with Maria. If the enemy wasn’t aware of the camera bots, then how did he avoid them? It means two things. The enemy has something which can detect the camera bots, or there was a traitor inside the warrior association who was helping the enemy.
But Maria didn’t think there was a traitor inside the warrior association, because those warriors who work for the warrior association needed to face tough interrogation. Not only that, there are many procedures the warrior needs to pass before he can join the association. So, it was unlikely that there was a traitor inside the association.
Maria quickly contacted all the warriors and asked them about the clue, if they found any. But no one finds any clue.
“Ok, you don’t need to search. Quickly, come back to the riverside. I have some important things to tell you all,” Maria said to them.
It didn’t take them much time to come back to the riverside. One by one, every warrior stands in a line.
Maria went in front of them and started talking.
“So, you all check your phone? I will send you a picture. A camera bot takes it before it malfunctions. If you look carefully at the photo, then you all see a shadow of a person in the footage. Most likely, it belongs to the enemy. Now the question is, what is the enemy doing at the riverside? So, I want you all to search the area where we find the footage. As you know, our camera bots can’t enter the water. Most likely the enemy is also aware of this and taking advantage of this. So, search the area carefully.”
” Yes ma’am,” every warrior said and searched the area carefully. First, they discover the exact location when the shadow of the enemy was seen. Then the warriors searched the surrounding area. Alena and Maria also didn’t stay ideal and searched.
“I don’t think we will find anything on the surface. We needed to search in the water. Harry, Fin, and Jerry, you guys take some warriors and search in the water. Most likely, there is an underground cave in the waters and the enemy hiding there.” Alena said that after seeing that there is no clue here.
“Yes, miss Alena,” those warriors responded at the same time and jumped into the river. In this area, the river was pretty deep. They all searched.
“Ring… Ring….. Ring.” While they were busy searching, suddenly Maria’s phone rang. She quickly taps the answer button.
“Ma’am, there is something strange we found in the inner area of the forest. Previously when we were searching in the inner area, we found a peculiar spot. From the outside, it looks like a normal cave. At first, like every other cave, we also think this cave is also a normal cave. But to search for the clue of the enemy, we sent some of our camera boats to this cave. From the look of the cave, you can tell it was quite old. It’s full of cracks and holes. At first, we ignored those cracks and holes because it was natural that the old cave would be full of cracks and holes. But, when we were searching, we found a hole that was quite weird compared to others.”
“Still, then we thought it was a normal hole, but in curiosity, we sent a camera bot in that hole. We didn’t expect that we would find anything there. But, ma’am, you won’t believe what you found in that cave. We found a narrow road which was quite long. So with our camera bots, follow the road. After an hour, we finally found the exit. If the exit was still in the dark forest, we wouldn’t feel anything special about this cave, but when we exited the cave, we found we were outside of the dark forest and we were quite far away from the dark forest.”
” Mam, I think this is a secret road. Somehow those warriors from the dark association found the secret road and from this secret road, they entered the dark forest. Because of this, we cannot detect them when they are in the dark forest. Also, I think previously those dark association warriors came from this cave.”
“Also mam we didn’t think that this secret road was a normal road that was made naturally. We think it was those dark association warriors who made this road previously to attack those students.” The warrior from the warrior association reports this to Maria. When the warrior reported Maria and Alena, they didn’t talk and listened to him silently. When the warrior finishes reporting, Maria and Alena have shocked expressions on their faces.
They never thought that those dark associations would use this type of secret road to enter the dark forest to attack the students. Now Maria has a question in her mind, “If those warriors from the dark association can use this type of secret road to enter the dark forest then why can’t they use this type of secret road to enter the central area from the inner area?” This type of secret road will prevent those camera bots from noticing their movement.
“Ma’am.. ma’am… Ma’am, we found one more this type of cave in the inner area. This cave was quite near the cave where Miss Jeni and the other students found the Forbidden symbol. We also found some drops of blood in that cave. So we can guess that the enemy previously was here. When those dark association warriors attack the students, the enemy uses this chance to escape from here. Because of this, I am unable to find any clue even after searching this much.” The warrior from the warrior association quickly reports this recent news to Maria.
“Ok. Continue monitoring,” after saying that, Maria cut the call. This report makes her very serious. Because those warriors from the dark association make the secret roads without alerting the association. So it was natural to make Maria look serious.
“Maria, after listening to this report, I am 100% sure that there was a cave in the water. In this case, the enemy is hiding and preparing to attack the students.” Alena said that Maria. She is also seriously thinking about this matter. But one thing which Maria and Alena, both of them, were like to know was, “when did the enemy get this much chance to make a road?” It was the question they were having right now, but nobody knows the answer. 𝘦𝘯.𝘰𝘳𝘨
“Right now, we can only wait for Harry and the others to come back. When they come back, we will ask them if they find anything in the water?” Alena said.

In the association,
Right now Markus, Vena, and others are discussing the secret roads that they have discovered in the dark forest. They were the saints who protected the earth but they didn’t even know about these secret roads. How did those dark association warriors build something like this alerting no one?
“Markus, I am sure that this dark association found something that can help their height from our reader, and because of this, we didn’t notice them. But now the crucial question is, where did they find something like this? I guess this thing wasn’t from Earth, it was from another land.” Vena said this to Markus. Markus is also thinking about this right now.

Back to Sam,
Sam and the others were resting. An Intermediate D-grade elephant beetle attacked them some time ago. It took all the students (we can say Sam and his teammates,) full strength to defeat that elephant beetle. As we know, the elephant beetle is the strongest defense in its body. You won’t be able to easily break that difference and because of this, Sam and his teammates needed to use their full strength to defeat this elephant beetle.
Same at this time was eating some food, while the others were discussing the monsters among them. Alexa, Lila, and their teammates were looking at Sam. Alexa and her teammate were looking at him because they didn’t think that Sam was this powerful. But Lila and her teammate while looking at Sam with a shocked expression on their face. Lila and the others belonged to the Base school. So they naturally know about Sam, even though some of them always make jokes about Sam.
After seeing Sam’s strength, Lila, and her teammates, have become silent. They didn’t know, How should they face him right now? Previously, when the device that checked all the students’ ranks, revealed that Sam was a peak E-grade warrior. They didn’t believe that device; they thought the device was malfunctioning. All of them sigh, and they come out of their thinking. Because right now they have to rest themselves to recover, their physical and mental energy.
Sam finish eating his food and he was about to get up from the ground to search the nearby area of central area. Yes, as you can guess, he wants to search this area for obtaining any rare plant or something like this.
