One of the official team members assessed the situation and joined the fight, while another, like Ryu Hyunwoo, stayed firmly by Kim Haru's side, unwavering in his duty to guard him.
Unable to persuade them, Kim Haru could only shift his gaze toward the center of the battle.
This was his first time seeing the mutated creatures that everyone had talked about.
It was a writhing, segmented thing, with the part above the ground already towering three to four meters high. Its overall shape was cylindrical, and its body appeared soft and pliable. At the very top, there was a large mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth—the very thing that had just lunged at Kim Haru's back!
"What is that?" Kim Haru stared at the agile body, a thought flashing through his mind.
Ryu Hyunwoo's reply confirmed Kim Haru's suspicion: "That's a Mutated Purple Worm called Oltura, and judging by its size, it must be the Oltura King."
