After venturing into the portal, the fate of all the hunters were left in their own hands. Each of them were sent to a new world to face a different challenge. A large numbers of the hunters died the moment they appeared!Some fought with their last bits of strengths, the zeal to survive pushing them further. Nevertheless most of them were unable to wrestle against their own fate. Some like Carson and Gregor survived. A lot faced unfortunate deaths, their fates ended! This was the job of the death tower after all. ....Mark found himself standing in a desolate wasteland, the ground cracked and barren, with jagged rocks jutting out of the earth like broken teeth. The sky above was a swirling mass of dark clouds, and the air was thick with the smell of sulfur. There was no sign of life, no movement, only the oppressive silence of a world that had been long abandoned."Where am I?" Mark muttered to himself, his hand instinctively reaching for the hilt of his sword. He looked aroun
William stared at the figure before him, his mind racing as he tried to make sense of the twisted reflection standing just a few paces away. The smirk on the doppelganger's face was chilling, filled with an arrogance and darkness that William recognized but had never embraced himself. This was not just a reflection; it was something far more sinister. "Who are you?" William demanded, his voice steady, though the unease gnawed at him. "Why do you look like me?" The doppelganger tilted its head slightly, the smirk widening. "I am the Dark One," it said, its voice a distorted echo of William's own. "The force behind the apocalypse, the one who brought chaos and ruin to your world." William’s eyes widened in shock, and then narrowed in anger. "You... You’re the one who unleashed the zombies, who turned the world into a living nightmare?" His grip tightened on his sword, the blade beginning to glow faintly with the power of his blood magic. "Why? Why would you do something so monstrous?
William blinked as the light surrounding him began to fade, the familiar, comforting warmth of reality returning to him.The oppressive darkness and twisted landscape were gone, replaced by the cool air and the solid ground beneath his feet.He felt the weight of exhaustion settle over him, but with it came a profound sense of relief. He had won.As his vision cleared, William found himself standing at the entrance of the Death Tower, the same place where their perilous journey had begun. He wasn’t alone. Around him, the surviving hunters appeared, emerging from their own battles, their faces a mixture of disbelief, exhaustion, and profound relief.They were fewer in number—much fewer. What had once been a group of sixty had been reduced to a small, ragged handful. They looked at each other, their eyes wide with surprise and then, slowly, with growing joy as they realized what had happened. They had survived. They had made it out alive.Carson was the first to speak, his voice hoars
The world had changed, but it was slowly mending. The scars left by the apocalypse were deep, and the memories of those harrowing days would never truly fade, but humanity was resilient. Two weeks had passed since the hunters had emerged victorious from the Death Tower, and in that short time, the earth had already begun to heal.The sky was a clear blue, the clouds soft and white, drifting peacefully above a world that had been plunged into darkness for so long. The air, once thick with the stench of decay and the virus that had plagued humanity, was now clean and fresh, a reminder of the life that had been restored. Birds, absent during the apocalypse, had returned, their songs filling the air with a sense of normalcy that had been absent for far too long.The government, once crippled by the chaos, had reestablished itself. Leaders who had survived the ordeal stepped forward, determined to rebuild the world that had been nearly destroyed. They worked tirelessly, organizing effo
Storm Family Mansion.Today, Lady Storm, head of the Storm Family, was celebrating her 70th birthday. All her children, grandchildren as well as invited guests from top families were present.The hall was lively as guest after guests rushed to present their gifts with proud and happy smiles on their faces."Grandma, this is a jade necklace that casts a calm energy around the body to keep you warm at all times.""Here is a $700,000 bag. It might look small, but it is durable and has good space.""Grandma, here is the magic robe you always wanted. It is rare and was forged by a trillionaire. I was able to obtain it for five million from an auction."The face of Lady Storm glowed with pride and happiness as she received each gifts.The hall was busy, with many millionaires present. The Storm family doesn't lack millionaires among their myriad connections. Each man dressed richly in nice branded clothes and suits.However, one young man stood out as he was dressed in casual black pants an
"What! Young master Donald is remarkable, he's willing to help the Storm Clan establish a relationship with Starkcom, the biggest company in Astoria City!""Starkcom is incredibly difficult to establish a relationship with, one must have a groundbreaking condition to sign a contract with them.""But yet, young master Donald wants to help the Storm family with just a simple marriage proposal! Heck, I would even give up everything I have just to take that offer."Clarissa overheard others, and her expression turned even colder. "Donald, stop pestering me. I don't like you!" she yelled at him and helped William up, intending to lead him out of the room to treat his injuries."Wait!" Lady Storm finally spoke, and the hall became silent. Everyone turned to look at her."Clarissa, I will declare this in public since you have decided to publicly shame my family. In one week's time, there would be a lot of changes, and you might be at the bottom last. However, you can change this by divorcing

William didn't even know what to do at a moment like this and could only stare at the System. He was only one who could see this system, if there was anyone in the room, they would think that William has gone crazy.

"William, what do you need one hundred thousand dollars for?"A harsh voice asked William, belonging to Charles, Clarissa's older brother. He has a large body build, and although he might not look it, he actually is one of the strongest elites in Astoria."I need the money for something very important. I swear that I'll pay you back after two days.""Humph, you plan to take our money and run away! I know that is what you want to do. You think I am my foolish sister that you can easily deceive."Hearing Charles call his wife 'foolish', William couldn't help but glare at him. However, he didn't retort."Well, two days from now is me and Clarissa's marriage anniversary, and I would like to get her gifts.""You want to get her gifts? Now I know you are really sick in the head. Two days from now, she would fail to sign a contract with Starkcom and would be thrown out of the Storm family. Even your gift won't wash away the pain she would feel that day," Charles mocked."Gifts aren't to wash
