"Report, Commander! No monsters have been found nearby for the time being."
The alerted soldiers first carefully searched the area around the resting place of the refugees once again.
Clearly, the monsters had not yet approached closely.
"That's good."
The No.1 Commander let out a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
If they were really attacked by monsters from the shadows at night, just their dozen or so people would probably be hard-pressed to provide perfect protection.
However, a choice lay before them—
Retreat? Or clear out the monsters?
This would depend on how tough the enemies were.
"Tiger, take your men and support Bai E with me, and you scouts, come along as well."
Better to take the initiative than to wait passively.
The large number of refugees, with no tactical training, would likely make a hasty retreat difficult without issues arising.
