Chapter 529: Escape Plan (2)
Day 63 of the expedition, 3 p.m.
We had scheduled plenty of time and arrived at Human Island one day before the rainy season began. Originally, I planned to spend the leftover time hunting around the island, but changed the plan and went straight into the village.
“...As I heard, this is truly a village of monsters.”
“Mr. White... is this really safe?”
“Didn’t the Baron tell you all to be cautious?”
Though we had briefed the explorers beforehand, they still showed signs of unease when they entered the village and saw monsters everywhere.
Of course, this only applied to the Hexts Clan.
“A monster that claims to be human...”
“This is... very rare indeed.”
“I heard that if you speak the ancient language, communication is possible?”
“Haha! Haven’t I told you over and over? In this vast labyrinth, it would be a huge waste of space if there wasn’t a single intelligent being who could communicate!”
Members of the Armin Expedition, who had explorer blood flowing through their veins, showed curiosity rather than fear toward the monsters.
