The SP received from killing each outlander this time was higher than in the third wave. As initially, killing one skeleton soldier gave out around 25-26 SP, but this time 31-32 SP instead.

Regarding the imps, they only gave out around 38-40 SP for each skill, which was a bit more than the amount received from killing a skeleton soldier. About the goblins, killing them also earned around 65-66 each, which was a bit more than in the easy-difficulty door.

The only type of outlander that gave out the exact amount no matter where it stayed was the wolves, which was around 44-45 SP per kill.

After the notifications disappeared from Jeremy's front view, he thought ponderingly,

'Well, the fight was a bit harder than in the third wave, whereas the only harder part originated from the new leather armors and better weapons, making me put in more force with each strike.'

"We won..."

"Yeah, Mister Jeremy, he..."

"My friend... *Sob* no..."

"Ahh, my arm..."

"I... I will go tend my wound first..."

"Let's clear the place and take a rest... we have six hours before the next wave comes..."

"I will bring William and other injured ones to the ward..."

"We should go to help the other side first..."

"Nah, look over there. I think there is no need; the battle there had already ended."

The seventh wave of monsters officially ended...

Everyone within the tutorial chamber had long felt too numbed to celebrate. Even after celebrating, so what?

The next wave would come to take their lives in six hours anyway. Wasn't it better to go rest and prepare for the next fight?

Thus, people could only endure, endure, and endure until finally they felt numbed physically and mentally.

There was no point in cheering or celebrating anymore; they just had to grit their teeth and prepare for the next more brutal, hellish battle against the stronger monsters.

'I'm truly surprised that so many people survive until now; it is clearly different from my past life. No, it is totally different...'

Jeremy thought in wonderment after looking around, and then he turned his head towards the right passageway.

It appeared that the bloody battle over there also came to an end, as Eddie, Mitchell, and everyone else was seen to be clearing and cleaning the battlefield like the people over here.

*Flip-flop*

*Flip-flop*

Sounds of some people's footsteps approached Jeremy from nearby...

Upon hearing the sounds, Jeremy turned his head towards the source. Then he spotted three people.

One of the three was a lanky man with tattoos but appeared to be very kindhearted, Bob. Another two were the well-built and tall Joshua and the middle-aged man, Lucas.

All three of them were the ones who had stood behind Jeremy when the third wave of monsters commenced.

'They looked fully armed from head to toe...'

Jeremy thought with one of his eyebrows raised, as it seemed like these three people were doing quite well to be able to accumulate so many SP to buy suitable gears from the Shop.

"Mister Jeremy, you are finally back." Lucas, the middle-aged man, opened his mouth first.

"Yep." Jeremy replied casually.

"You have been behind one of those doors, right? I thought you wouldn't come back..." Bob said lightly, trying to sound as polite as possible, but it still sounded quite rude anyway.

Upon hearing those words, Jeremy only smiled lightly as a reply, then he turned his head towards Joshua and said with a teasing smile,

"You look just like a paladin in the middle ages, huh."

When Joshua had heard those words, he could only chuckle bitterly...

Who would have thought that his old, normal life on earth would change so suddenly into a bloody one?

Then Joshua, who had kept quiet earlier, suddenly said words filled with gratitude towards Jeremy,

"Speaking of which, I would like to say thank you for the help earlier. If it were not for your perfect timing, William would have died. Like that, I will also lose one of my brothers."

"Nah, it's okay. Don't think too much."

Jeremy replied with a charming smile, but his thoughts were otherwise entirely,

'I just did it for SP, not helping you guys.'

"Alright, what's next?" Jeremy suddenly asked the three.

"Hmm?"

"What?"

"..."

With three different reactions, the three got perplexed by Jeremy's sudden question.

When Jeremy saw that, he could only elaborate further,

"I implied that what would you guys do next as the fight had just ended?"

After hearing Jeremy's elaboration, Lucas said while pointing his finger towards the right back corner of the chamber, "Ohh... We will group up over there."

"I see... What would you guys think if I wanted to attend it too?" Jeremy asked, trying to be polite.

Well, if he wanted to attend the meeting, who would dare prevent him, the great savior, anyway?

"That's doable..." Said Lucas.

"Eddie and Mitchell will be glad." Said Bob gleefully.

"Alright, I will go and notify Mitchell and Eddie about your arrival and intention of joining the meeting." Replied Joshua.

Upon hearing the three's consents, Jeremy cut the chit-chat and bid them farewell,

"Good then. I will go check the Crystal first. See you guys at the gathering."

With a slight wave of his left hand as a farewell sign, Jeremy proceeded towards the big green Survival Crystal floating silently at the tutorial chamber's centermost part.

He intended to buy more skills...

While walking towards the Crystal, many pairs of eyes from all around were shifted at him occasionally.

Indeed, Jeremy was born destined to attract attention, no matter where he went...

Well, attention usually came along with troublesome issues, so Jeremy didn't quite appreciate such attention in any way.

But for now, it couldn't be helped...

Maybe on Ortus, but not here and now...

After a short while, Jeremy finally arrived at the beautiful, floating, green Crystal...

'Hmm... Let's see if those expensive skills have been bought already or not. After all, it's already been 42 hours since everyone was kidnapped here.'

With those thoughts in mind, Jeremy finally reached the Crystal and was seen to be touching it...

Soon, a transparent window popped up like always...

...

[Shop]

[Mission]

[Leaderboard]

...

After seeing those three options, Jeremy intended to check the [Mission] option first because if he wanted to buy the skills within the [Shop] option, he still had to come out and report the missions to get the SP before he could buy them anyway.

Thus, Jeremy chose [Mission] option as his first entry...

...

[Would you like to report the missions and claim the rewards for completing them?]

[Yes │ No]

...

When Jeremy saw the same old notifications asking him whether he wanted to report the missions or not, he obviously chose 'Yes' to receive the long-awaiting hard-earned rewards.

...

[You have received 800 SP for completing the mission, 'Kill 10 imps']

[You have received 1,000 SP for completing the mission, 'Kill 5 wolves']

[You have received 4,900 SP for completing the mission, 'Pass the normal-difficulty door']
