In the dense jungle, a group of thirteen people moved cautiously through the thickets. They held weapons in hand, staying no more than five meters apart and forming an oval formation. Their expressions were cautious, constantly surveying their surroundings, even deliberately lowering their footsteps.
The person at the front of the team seemed to notice something, raising his right hand, prompting the rest to halt and wait in place.
Approximately fifty meters from the group, two men with bows and arrows looked down from the trees or gazed into the distance, ensuring the safekeeping of the team's front and rear.
If danger arose, they would fire arrows to alert the team immediately.
The group coordinated seamlessly, able to progress swiftly while ensuring safety, avoiding any encounters with demon beasts they detected in advance, thus avoiding unnecessary battles.
"There was a battle up ahead, and three people died, two of them seem familiar."
