“Bone-Breaking Fist!” Jim didn’t just use his brute strength but also his vivre in the attack. This helped him generate a lot of force behind the punch.Jeremy raised his hand high and caught Jim’s fist with some visible effort. “Can’t you wait until I’m fully transformed? Are you that afraid of facing me at my full strength? How can you call yourself a hero when you act in such a cowardly manner?”“Shut up!” Jim forcibly pulled his fist back and rained punches fast, but Jeremy was able to catch up to his speed comfortably.“Anger won’t get you anywhere. Didn’t you mom or dad teach you that, Jim Drake?” Jeremy asked. “Or do you want me to call you Jim Draknor?”Jim’s eyes slightly widened. How did he know his family name? His real family name? “H-How did you…”“We demons have eyes and ears everywhere,” Jeremy grinned. “I can tell you what your father did in his younger days if you want because my friends have observed him back then. In fact, I can talk about your grandparents or their

Everybody on the second floor was preparing for the monster wave. Many villains from the third floor were watching on their laptop and television screens to see how the monster wave assault would turn out this time because the top ranker Jeremy had died.“I can’t believe that guy defeated Jeremy,” Little Nightmare was sparring with her sister. She was learning how to make the whip release attacks at variable speeds, but was having it very difficult even though her sister showed her how to do it multiple times. “He definitely wasn’t that strong when he fought me.”“I’ve seen his growth on the first floor with my own eyes,” Nightmare_lily smiled as she blocked her sister’s attacks with her bare hands. “So, I’m not that surprised. What makes me wonder though is how he’s going to deal with Barbosa and Bloody Corpse. They are not people that anyone wants to fight, much less defeat for obvious reasons. From what I heard, Jeremy was a member of the Hunter tribe, which was one of eight beast

A few minutes earlier.“Boss, why are you exercising right before the monster wave comes?” Doug asked. “You should conserve your stamina instead. You are going to be fighting a lot of monsters, so having stamina will greatly help because it’s going to last many hours. There were times when it lasted even days.”Jim was doing deadlifts with 10,000 pounds without using his vivre, and he was barely sweating from doing it. “Damn it!” He let go of the long bar and looked disappointed. “Even this much weight is not giving me any thrill. Mm?” He noticed that Doug was standing at the door. “What?”“I was asking you why you’re exercising at this hour,” Doug said. “Shouldn’t you be conserving your stamina for the monster wave that’s going to hit us soon? It’s going be a long battle, after all.”Jim noticed that Doug’s arms had gotten a little bigger. “What did you do to your arms?”“Ah, this?” Doug squeezed his muscles and showed his biceps that looked almost twice as big as they normally would

Everybody in the front lines could hear the noises and even feel the vibrations increasing in the ground.On the southern side, there were close to 2000 people guarding the borders.Ace was also among them, warming up his hands by squeezing highly-resistant hand grippers.“Get ready, guys,” Ace shouted after hearing the terrible noise of the beasts. “We’ve got the worst bunch coming for us.” The moment he said those words, more than a dozen terror birds came dashing out of the giant dark cave. These birds mostly ran on the ground, but they could also fly like chickens if necessary. And right now, they flew over the front lines and jumped on the ones in the second and third lines and plucked their heads off their shoulders as if they were plucking fruits off the ground.Blood sprayed everywhere into the air.In a matter of seconds, more than thirty people lost their lives without even being able to deal any damage to the beasts. It was a horrifying sight to behold.A terror bird was go

The metal rhino that was as big as a heavy-duty truck completely focused its attention on Joker because it had the toughest body among the monsters present there. The only beast that would be close to its toughness among its peers would be the Monk Goose.And Joker did have trouble against piercing the metal rhino’s body because its metallic body was abnormally tough. Despite its big size, it could move fast, and the most disturbing ability of this rhino was that it could send a shockwave through its horns. So, every time Joker tried to clash with it, he felt his organs trembling and that his veins might snap just from defending against its sheer strength brought about by its momentum.His diamond armor was not able to completely defend him against the vibrations released by the rhino’s horn.The metal rhino’s black horn was so tough that Joker could only barely leave scratches on it even after striking the same spot many times.Joker didn’t want to keep facing this beast, but if he h
