Everyone thought Gray would be fearful of Lilian's attack. After all, the surging aura emitted from her attack was enough to kill several newborn awakeners before the attack even touched them.But Gray on the other hand showed no fear, carrying a giant bone, raising his hand with great momentum. "Boy you are courting death" "Fuck off! Death? How do you write it? Let me tell you that this word doesn't exist for me!" Well, he was telling the truth. No lies here. Boom! The attack and, causing a wave of wind to push the ant queen back, smashing her into the wall. Mommy... Why are humans so scary today? Sat no more Already, she was trying to dig her way out since some humans were blocking the path leaving the site. What a bad day! ~Crack. The bone Gray was holding shattered at its center due to Lilian's scissors that sliced through it like Tofu. Her scissors had double-sharp edges, menacing it wasn't just the inside edges that were sharp, but the blade's exterior edges too.
WHAT?Baychang and Lilian were dumbfounded after turning around and seeing Gray's hands moving in their direction. Boom!The punch hit, sending them rolling like tumbleweeds."Yoite not dead? Impossible! You should be dead!" "Your heart stopped! Impossible! Impossible! Faking a corpse?"(--->○□○)Everyone, including Cerberus, looked like they saw a Ghost. But how did that concern Gray?"Dead your mother! How dare you try killing me? I want you all to die!"Bahahahaha~"I learned the innate corpse technique, a technique that lets my breaths fade for a moment, and you all bought it, thinking I was dead? Idiots!"In a flash, Gray flew to Cerverus's side but was easily smacked away as though he was a bug.Taking beatings from Lilian and Baychang even during death, helped him level up tremendously since they were far stronger than the ants he fought and were far above his strength too.Damn!If he wasn't fighting with them, he would've loved to thank them for giving him such high points.
Why?... Why is the world so cruel?A waterfall of tears flowed down Cora's cheeks, still in disbelief by fate's cruelty towards her. Her mouth moved nervously with quivering shivers, and her eyes could only stare in fascinated stupor.How... How can her father die? Words alone couldn't describe the endless stream of emotions that bombarded her senses. For a moment, she contemplated killing herself and joining her father wherever he may be.But when Shertan's overly boisterous laughter filled the air, she quickly regained her senses, feeling her priorities now come in line. Kill! She must kill Shertan and avenge not just her father, but Timothy too, who was bold enough to help them this far. He was a good man. A man 50 times better than anyone in here. But now he is dead! Dead because of her! No. Father also died because of her.Cora touched her beautiful face, wishing she would have slashed it to a hideous mask if she knew it would result in the downfall of 2 innocent men. It
Up, up, up and away they went, bursting out the ant hole like a rocket. Momentary happiness washed over everyone, but it quickly faded away when they realized they still didn't know who this masked man was. Gary also kept silent, leaving the anthill and returning the same way he came. With his newfound strength, he could easily scale the giant cliffside, carrying the trio to the very top. Arriving at the giant tree branch he and Emelia stood on earlier, Gray finally dropped them without a word. "Thank you." Connor broke the sense, seeing where the masked man had taken them. Even though it would take them several hours to leave from here to the forest's closest exit, this area was still considered part of the forest's perimeters since it had no major threats people had to worry about. The reason why places are considered dangerous is because of the concentration of apocalyptic energy gathered in one place.The energy in the air was nowhere near that where they came from.This is
Already, Gray planned to use Connor and his group as informants down the road.Of course, in exchange for their services, he could provide them with things they too desired. Although they owe Gray a favor, how many favors can one do before the feeling of gratitude vanishes? "To take them to my side, I have to show them my worth." Gray thought deeply. Although he talked smack to those people who wanted him to join their organization, he knew the benefits of being informed. Knowledge and information were more essential to him. If news of any treasures go by, he wanted to know. After feeling the benefits of the Z-6 crystal, he felt he should also do treasure hunting in his spare time. Luckily, no one else saw his actions of absorbing the crystal's contents. Well, those are matters for later. Now, his focus was on his missions... particularly his second mission ....[>Task 2: Gain a minimum of 500 kill points while in the Sigmore Forest. >Reward: Lightning Innate Ability. >Pun
Did they not understand how dangerous the situation was?Of course, they did.The tension in the room was thickening, the longer the silence drew out. Hufferstone felt his blood pressure rising when staring at the ashamed group who came to report failure. The worst part of it all was that they completely wasted 95% of the Command Center's resources and now had to wait for more resources to arrive from their superiors. Although Spade was a well-known powerful man in Z-Sphere, he wasn't the only one getting a buzz around here. Hufferstone was also considered a genius, though not as powerful as Spade. He oversaw all matters concerning Sigmore forest, following all orders granted by Z-Sphere's world government The Beggar's organization might be up there, but the World Government organization was also a force to be reckoned with. Understand that the world government didn't just have its roots in Z-sphere, but also had them in all other Zones/spheres. If one meets the requirement, t
Everyone quickly scattered, leaving Hufferstone alone. Standing beside a window, Hufferstone had his hands behind his back, staring at the vibrant forest before him. The Control Center was on a towering plain not too far from a deadly gushing waterfall. Here, he could see a jungle that stretched out for a star as the eyes could see.This Control Center was the lead one here in Sigmore forest, with 12 rising ancient buildings built by the ancient humans (those before the apocalyptic era.) The place was later fortified with giant carved stones that had stood in place for millions of years.Staring outside, he spotted a family of giant birds flying in the thick mist. It was amazing that even though they were this high up, mist still covered the lands wherever he looked.It's just that with how powerful he was, his eyesight was also more enhanced seeing through several miles of space within the mist.Albeit, it was still cloudy, but not as thick when he looked through.If Hufferstone
Hufferstone chuckled, knowing they had what he wanted. Like so, his negotiations were done and he was now ready to leave Stronghold 27 and head back to his base in Sigmore Forest. "Now that I know where it is, tomorrow's attack will be a guaranteed success." With a smile on his lips, Hufferstone jumped into his vehicle and left the abandoned site without hesitation. He could see it now. Already, he could see himself getting promoted after taking down the dangerous Level-1 Zombie.He would garner even more fame and more power should he succeed. As they say, where there is danger, there is opportunity. This was his chance to make his name bigger, and don't think he will miss out on this opportunity just because he used to look down on the Beggar's organization before. Hmph! It seems they have their uses. He secretly thought, though he still felt they were far beneath the World Government. No matter how big the Beggar's organization grows, in his eyes they were still worms befo
