As the expedition team went further inside the forest toward the bizzare mountain, more and more wild beasts and monsters started to attack them.
Even though the group was overwhelmingly stronger than the attacking monsters, these beasts showed no fear.
At first, the count wanted to use brute force to quickly reach the mountain where the Earth Overturning Great monster was supposed to be. It was actually not a bad idea as he had a total of 11 official Knights in the team including himself.
But soon he had to abandon this plan. While getting constantly attacked by the wild beasts and the monsters, even the knights were getting tired. So they needed to rest or someone could very well die.
So, the count needed to use the expertise of the scouts that he had brought with him to find a relatively safe area. It was small lake located in the middle of the forest.
