Mia glanced somewhat uncertainly at Lucifer and spoke in a soft voice, "How are we supposed to know where Alex goes?"Aegis nodded in agreement, adding, "Today is my gardening day, and I haven't seen Alex anywhere."He then expressed a hint of concern, saying, "Whenever he goes out, he usually tells you or goes with you. This time, he went out alone?"Honestly, if that were the case, it was indeed worrisome. Lucifer couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly. Where could Alex be at this moment? With the sudden appearance of an S-rank dungeon in the Mystica region, Lucifer couldn't be sure he could stay calm alone. At the very least, Alex needed to show up for something.Lucifer didn't believe that Alex, in the face of an S-rank dungeon, would be frightened and run away. So, there was only one possibility – he was locked somewhere and couldn't get out. Lucifer couldn't help but look toward Mia and Aegis, saying, "Start searching in places where Alex is likely to appear."Finishi
The venomous dragon, provoked by the audacious human before it, roared furiously. It opened its mouth, and strands of venom shot out immediately.These acted like arrows with incredible speed, heading straight for Alex. If not careful, these toxic arrows would undoubtedly pierce through his body.Not stopping there, the venomous dragon also spewed out a chaotic-looking slimy substance, aiming directly at Alex. According to Alex's assessment, that pile of slime might even be capable of swallowing his entire body. When that happened, he might dissolve directly in that toxic goo.Alex raised a hand forward, and immediately, a gust of wind arose, blowing away all the toxins flying towards him. These toxins couldn't penetrate the wind. It could be said that Alex's new ability was well-suited for this battle.Not stopping there, countless wind blades suddenly appeared behind Alex, then shot off at an unbelievable speed, with the main target being the venomous dragon. These wind blade
Countless thoughts swirled in Alex's mind, the sensation of impending death making him instinctively shudder in agony.He seemed to be caught in a relentless nightmare, and no one could rescue him. Alex stood there, but his consciousness had drifted away.The venomous dragon seemed to have noticed that. It suddenly narrowed its eyes, an extremely cunning light gleaming within them. Those outside couldn't help but anxiously await.Would this battle end like this? It was truly unbearable!Even though they were mere bystanders, they wished they could step in and help the other regain consciousness.Alex couldn't hear the cries of the people outside. At this moment, the venomous dragon gradually closed in on him.It sneered as if mocking this insignificant human for daring to resist it.Alex was still immersed in memories of his own death. Sometimes, he seemed to awaken, wanting to escape these memories, but they clung to him like sticky, viscous substances, making it impossible for
Alex glanced at the book floating beside him. The book remained motionless as if nothing had happened, but he was sure that Black had blocked Umbra to wake him up.He spoke softly, "Thank you."Upon hearing this, Umbra couldn't help but feel a bit suspicious, "No problem. Anyway, I didn't call you..."But before he could finish, a deep voice interrupted, "You don't need to thank him."Umbra blinked, confirming that he didn't mishear, but the issue was that Alex clearly didn't see any other presence around him.Alex chuckled a bit, saying, "That's Black, another friend of mine. The two of you might become friends."Both Umbra and Black remained silent.Alex smiled stiffly, not caring about them anymore, and just stood up and walked forward.It was an incredibly large cave, or more precisely, the den of a venomous dragon.Because Alex had successfully killed the venomous dragon, its treasure now belonged to him.However, they wouldn't automatically follow him out like the venomous drago
"Lucifer, don't you feel that destiny is urging us?" Alex spoke up.Upon hearing Alex suddenly asking such a question, Lucifer couldn't help but be a little surprised. Finally, he spoke in a low voice, "What do you mean?"Alex didn't say anything but just looked contemplatively at Lucifer.Lucifer couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly. He naturally felt the urge of destiny, to the point that he, someone who didn't even know where he came from or how he was born, wanted to grow stronger every day. It was as if a voice always urged deep within his heart. That the harsh destiny awaited him ahead.There were many times when Lucifer wondered if he was born just for this, something he couldn't even confirm. And now, the question always lingering in his mind seemed to have found an answer. The great apocalypse. So, did he want to become stronger just to resist this? Was this his destiny?Lucifer remained silent, deep in thought. But looking at his expression, Alex guessed that h
Alex couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard the man in military uniform speak like that, and it seemed a bit awkward for him. However, before he could say anything, the man in military uniform said, "You just need to maintain your title. Remember, no matter where you are, you are still the Chairman of Mystica."This meant that Alex could go wherever he wanted, but he shouldn't forget his position; when necessary, he still needed to appear. Alex understood. Looking at the faces of those in front of him, he could only compromise, saying, "Alright."Although some were still a bit unhappy with this decision, there was nothing more to be said. After the conversation with the authorities of Mystica, Alex returned to his mansion.Then came a period of relentless training. They had six peaceful months with only dungeons ranging from F to D appearing. Not a single C-rank dungeon appeared. It was truly a paradise for them to train and improve themselves without worrying abou
They traveled in a government vehicle and drove on the highway out of the city towards the border with the Terra Arcana region. The journey was fast and convenient, taking almost a day. Finally, they reached the border area, and by then, it was already dark.It was certain that they couldn't venture into the dense fog at this moment. Despite news spreading about the anomalous fog, it was not a secret. They needed to be cautious about everything.The group disembarked from the vehicle. Alex looked at the thick fog, speaking in a low voice, "It seems we can only wait until tomorrow."Mia nodded, "Let's start setting up the camp."She immediately opened the trunk and began setting up the camp, with Aegis helping her. Thomas joined in quickly, much to Mia's annoyance.Lucifer stood next to Alex, and his gaze also fixed on the dense fog. In a deep voice, he asked, "Can you see anything inside it?"Alex shook his head, "Nothing is visible."In his previous life, Alex had never left th
Lucifer looked at Alex, sneering as he said, "If I hadn't come out, how could I witness your foolish appearance?"Alex: "..." It seems like he misunderstood something about me.Alex didn't say anything more, just staring at the campfire blazing in front of him. The flames flickered up and down as if dancing to an incomprehensible tune.He could see the sparks leaping and crackling, resembling musical notes playing in unison. The fire in his eyes was gradually dimming as if shrouded in an elusive mist.The two sides clung to each other without parting, making everything increasingly surreal, akin to an illusion."Alex, Alex, wake up!" Suddenly, Umbra's echoing voice startled Alex as if he had just awakened from a dream.Alex opened his eyes wide, looking around with a somewhat blurry gaze. What was happening?At this moment, everywhere was covered in fog, and the pale moonlight couldn't illuminate this space. No more tents, no more fire, and Lucifer was nowhere to be seen. The onl
