More hours passed, and the awakened had already left the battlefield.
All except for Alex.
He sat, waiting near the Floodgate in a meditative stance.
The Military officials had already declared the mission to be complete, but Alex's bad gut feeling didn't subside.
Hence he stayed.
In truth, he didn't expect this mission to be so short, but as it turned out, the Floodgate had already been open for 2 weeks and was already near the end of its life cycle before Alex even accepted the mission.
But with the amount of beasts he killed during the four hours he was on the battlefield, he should still get a decent amount of contribution.
After all, most of the awakened who had been there from the start were working in teams, so even though they had probably racked up hundreds or even thousands of kills over the past two weeks, when the contribution was split between 10 people, they were still below Alex, who worked alone.
