Chapter 56 – Sanctuary Under Siege
On the rooftop of the base, Viktor stood still, scanning the surrounding area. His eyes narrowed as a swirl of deep purple energy began forming in the center of the base’s main courtyard.
WUUUUUUSHHH!!! CRAAAK!!
A portal tore open wide like a gash in reality. Wind burst outward in all directions. A strange aura leaked from the rift, prompting the stationed guards to raise their weapons immediately.
Viktor activated his [Appraisal] skill the moment a figure stepped out of the portal.
A small humanoid creature covered in fur, barely a meter tall. Though tiny, its body was lithe and muscular. Its face resembled a wolf, complete with protruding fangs. It held a broken, rusty sword—but its eyes radiated a murderous instinct.
[Kobold – Rank 2]
"Huh, just a Rank 2 Kobold?" Viktor muttered casually, but unease stirred in his gut.
TAP! TAP! TAP! Quick, small footsteps echoed from within the portal.
ZAAHHHH!!!ZAAAAAHHH!!!
Hundreds of kobolds burst forth! Their screeches echoed through the air, bringing chaos in their wake. Viktor instantly raised his communicator.
"Sofia! Altair! Yuki! Rina! Vivi! Yuna! This is not a drill! The base is under attack!"
