Alex sighed heavily and shook his head."I never said that, I won't let any of you die under my watch. You just need to be vigilant and follow instructions," Alex whispered, sending his consciousness into his storage rings to search it for suitable treasures and techniques which might aid their cause.Soon he pushed down the front seats to make more space, bringing out a golden light pagoda."Emrys, Ikaris, Shadow, get inside the golden treasure pagoda," he ordered, and they quickly obeyed sitting inside the limited space."Boss, the car is already disintegrating. Two have managed to enter the bonnet!" Tajana exclaimed in shock.Alex used the screen on his hands, broadcasting the exterior of the car to check it out. The sight of the car induced goosebumps on his body.Their car was totally covered with the ants, all of the ants were now attached to the car, diligently eating them away.He threw two pills to the front of the car, making it land on the dashboard, while he threw another
Alex quickly shot up to his feet, his tiredness disappearing with lightning speed. The huge shadow continued getting closer by the second, destroying all the trees in its wake. Huge gusts of foul smelling air kept hitting Alex and his men from the giant's direction."These gusts of wind, don't tell me they're breaths from its nose?" Emrys asked wide eyed, looking at the huge shadow covering them.Soon, the silhouette of the ginormous monster became visible to them, making his men gasp in shock."Oh my gosh!" Ikaris whispered, getting his gun ready as they looked up at the monster.Their current situation was reminiscent of David and Goliath. No, compared to the creature they were as tiny as little bunnies.Alex looked up at the creature as it huffed out air, the air oozing out of its nose was enough to cause a tempest, making their clothes flutter with the force of its wind-like breath."Giant hell thunder ape, damn it! Another creature from the ninth layer of hell!" Alex growled, tig
Alex took a deep breath and smiled at the angry giant hell thunder ape swinging tree branches at them. The branches had managed to scrape all of them, except Alex that keeps avoiding it like a pro."Get the explosive bullets and load it in," Alex instructed, running back with the rest."Target its neck and fire!" Alex screamed, shooting out ice bullets towards it.To everyone's greatest surprise, it quickly used the tree to shield its neck from the incoming bullets."Fuck! It has achieved sentience. It can now understand us!" Ikaris cursed, holding his gun steadily while waiting for further orders from Alex.The ape smirked coldly at them, and Alex smiled back in a fearfully creepy way."Target its belly then, OP!" He ordered coldly, making the ape quickly shield the vulnerable spots on its belly while advancing.However, against the ape's expectations, they all offloaded their bullets on its neck, making it scream in pain and horror at their cold deception.The bullets were special k
Alex furrowed his brows while listening to the strange sounds in the distance. He shrugged and continued to eat, trying to regain his energy."Boss, what's that?" Ikaris asked in trepidation, turning to Alex."I don't know, you can go check if you're that curious," Alex said nonchalantly, still slowly eating his food.Ikaris immediately shivered, goosebumps spreading on his body."Nope, I don't want to go alone," he immediately refuted, quickly stuffing his face with food.Alex smiled naughtily and continued to eat. "Whatever it is, we need our energy to fight it. So you all should focus on returning to your top condition within this period of time," Alex whispered, taking huge gulps of water.He sighed and sat crossed legged, circulating his internal energy to heal the wounds his men never noticed were on his body; he soon went into a trance, floating in a half awake, half asleep state as his men rested.Soon his men were done resting, comfortably lying down as they chatted away, ig
Alex watched the three of them screaming in pain and horror."No!! Ariella! Let her go!" Tajana screamed, attacking Shadow."No! Go away! I never killed innocent children. I didn't kill you!" Emrys screamed, blood seeping out of his ears and mouth.The veins on their faces were bulging, and their eyes were wide open with pain and horror as they fought a losing battle against their inner demons, guilt and mental illusions in which they were trapped in.Alex quickly let go of Ikaris, and he instinctively followed Alex, fearing for his safety."Stay back! Do not be a coward! The moment you hesitate or feel afraid in this cave, you die!" Alex roared furiously, making Ikaris freeze at the spot."Atlas holding the world!" Alex growled as a mighty spear totally white in color, shining brighter than the sun, with a globe at its blunt end, appeared in his right hands, shaking the foundation of the cave and making the darkness surrounding the area disperse, as if they were afraid of the white l
Alex walked along the passageways of the cave, as silent as a demon and fast as a whirlwind.Along the way, many higher ranked monsters ran away immediately they felt his aura. While the lower ranked one whose senses haven't been fully developed fell under one slash of his black saber.The imperial dragon demon saber had a consciousness of its own. It was a saber that had developed saber spirit and saber soul. It got stronger by feeding on the blood of its victims. The blood stain that splattered on it after each slash on the unlucky monster was absorbed into the saber, leaving it shining black at all times without a trace of the blood it had been devouring for a while now.The saber spirit was feeling especially gleeful. Alex never allowed him out on normal occasions because it was an evil, bloodthirsty weapon, refusing to feed it so that it wouldn't go out of control. Sometimes, an evil weapon with a spirit possesses the wielder, controlling their mind and turning them into puppets,
Alex immediately dodged the tail coming for him, jumping out of the space where he was initially standing.The snake had wanted to trap him and coil around his body, planning to squeeze, choke and strangle him to death. However, Alex had no intention of dying in the cave.He quickly slashed the snake's neck viciously, unleashing his saber spirit at it.The saber left a tiny mark on the anaconda's body, blood pouring out from it."You managed to nurture a spirit for the imperial dragon demon saber? You thief! Give it back! You've stolen so many treasures from hell each time you visited. Give it here!" The snake hissed, its eyes shining with greed and lust."Oh? If you want it, you can come get it," Alex mocked, swinging the saber with ease.The snake immediately charged at him, swinging its tail wildly while trying to use its little claw which was developing under its belly to scratch him.Alex hurriedly began to parry the blows, giving the anaconda many slashes in the process, while s
Alex began to walk towards the direction of the noise, feeling curious about the kind of monster that could emit such a powerful aura.His senses were on full alert as he tried to detect and avoid any traps which might have been set in place to capture any trespassers.Alex's legs froze of their own accord as he felt an icy and otherworldly aura.He quickly looked around and noticed a little mirror hanging by his right. Alex closed his eyes and tried to walk past it, but his curiosity couldn't let him.“I am the mirror to the soul. I show one's deepest, darkest secrets to them. I let them see their dirty desires and the things they yearn for in the innermost parts of their hearts. Furthermore, I will let you see your future, your past, your enemies, your greatest nightmares, your biggest obstacle, your biggest fear and the reality which you refused to acknowledge,” the mirror whispered gently, as if it was a fair maiden, trying to seduce a man to bask in the sweetness of her scent and
