Ibro's advance wasn't halted by anything, as nothing could stop the two fighting side by side, using this complementary mix of close and far ranged attacks. Ibro was following the direction provided to him by the system, while delving deeper into the ocean of monsters, killing endless amounts of them without pause.
"The lord is back!"
Suddenly, this yell came from far, weak and low, but Ibro was sure it was loudly heard at the place it came from. It seemed Froki had sent scouts up ahead, and he was just spotted by one of them.
Ibro used that shout as a direction for his march, and it didn't take him long until he reached the place where he met with a group of hurriedly running individuals, with numbers so low that it wasn't exceeding a thousand. They seemed like a tiny drop of light in this ocean of darkness. Ibro managed to spot Froki, alone, standing amidst those people.
"Our lord is back, Our lord is back!"
