The team wasn't finished with their hunt yet. While Essei had met her kill target, Laura, Eric, and Miara still had creatures to slay.
Miara had ten left to reach her goal, and Eric and Laura were far from done. Despite their exhaustion, Laura rallied them to continue, determined to see everyone meet their targets before returning to base.
It didn't take long for Laura to locate another group of over thirty creatures scattered in a rubble-strewn square. The creatures were varied, some hulking and brutish, others smaller but unnervingly quick.
Their guttural growls echoed through the desolate area as Laura and her team prepared to engage.
"Same strategy as before," Laura commanded, her voice steady. "Essei, take the high ground. Eric, you're vanguard. Miara, you know the drill—I'll keep sending them your way. Let's finish this."
