Alec stood alone, his teeth gritted in anger, while the Hyena Matriarch was nowhere to be seen. Clearly, the current situation pertained to her, as a group of Tier 4 Hyena demonic beasts had come to invite her to join the Hyena savannah pack of the middle region , offering a safe haven as she is expected approached the middle region after her breakthrough, because Mid rank life forms are not allowed to stay at the low regions for long after there breakthrough.Though the Matriarch Hyena initially resisted joining them, but she had no choice. Facing six Hyenas in the same realm as her without her minions as backup to execute her cunning strategies, she reluctantly bowed and agreed to go with them.Even with her dual abilities, the Matriarch was still a newly evolved demonic beast and had yet to fully comprehend the extent of her powers. But still yet , she had made a promise to Alec to search for him in the city once she was free. In a typical situation, Alec would have been reliev
Arthur and the rest of the gang had arrived at the academy city gates some time ago, but their worry grew as Alec still hadn’t returned. Nevertheless, they decided to hold onto their faith and wait for him inside the city, In that moment, it seemed like all the mages around were observing them. The Gordons clansmen had gained quite a reputation as troublemakers in the Abyss, having earned the title after only two visits. Even Terran had only earned this name after numerous visits to the Abyss, but now even his disciples had received the same title as him due to their involvement in the death of countless second Dimensional creatures in just two visits. Each visit of there’s was marked by intense battles that resulted in a significant decline in the number of low-ranking second Dimension fighters. Frustrated, Arthur couldn’t help but express his feelings. “That boy Alec always takes all the risks alone, Does he think we can’t help him at all?” He punched the wall beside him in fru
“How?!” The captain mumbled as he surveyed the line-up of Orcs that had assembled in front of the academy’s city.The more he pondered the situation, the more he realized he had fallen right into the Orcs’ trap, He never suspected that a Tier 7 orc would be lurking nearby when he was watching the mage squad execute his orders.It seemed that despite his efforts to hide himself well using the Wind Veil spell, the Tier 7 Orc had already detected his presence and alerted the others. Even the two Orcs that had chased after him were likely under the Tier 7 Orc’s orders.The fact that these two Orcs now stood by his side, showing respect, indicated to the captain that he had unwittingly fallen into a grand conspiracy.“Why don’t you spare me the stress and open the Barrier?, That way, when I conquer this city, I won’t have to torture you much,” the Tier 7 Orc taunted, still gripping his club.Taking a moment, the captain studied the features of the leading Orc – the long beard, tribal tat
“Hmmm,” Titan made a small noise as he received a transmitted message from one of his ice golem summons. He glanced over at Alec, who was still screaming in pain after choosing to upgrade his endurance. Alec’s body was displaying a red colour, particularly on his chest.But Titan held onto the news he had just received, patiently waiting until Alec finished enduring the pain and collapsed on the ground, defeated.“Master, it seems both Butcher and Saint have gotten themselves into a bit of trouble!” Titan informed.“How big of a trouble? Is it a horde?” Alec inquired, furrowing his brows.“No, Master. It’s just a Tier 4 demonic beast,” Titan responded, and Alec’s annoyance was evident as he knew that those two won’t provoke a Tier 4 demonic beast.“How is that even possible?, How can a Tier 4 beast manage to stay in the lower region without being hunted down?, The Beasts of the middle region would never tolerate a Tier 4 demonic beast lingering in the lower region, disrupting the j
Alec, who had been in discussion with the system spirit, finally realized that he hadn’t felt any pain while upgrading his Agility stats.It dawned on him that his high endurance had not only increased his physical capabilities but also his pain tolerance.“Well, let’s get rid of the bastard that’s making things difficult for my golems,” Alec declared, dashing towards the location he had designated for Butcher and Saint, with Titan and the system spirit golem following closely behind.--Meanwhile, the battle between the Tier 4 demonic beast and Butcher and Saint raged on. Butcher summoned all five of his storm elemental golems, hoping to slow down the Tier 4 demonic beast that had a lions face in front of them.However, a single roar from the lion’s head unleashed a shock wave that quickly infiltrated their bodies, resulting in their swift demise.Butcher was disheartened to discover that his elementals which were only peak Tier 1 summons could not even withstand one attack from the
The captain could only watch helplessly as the Orcs summoned by the Tier 7 Orc descended upon the city’s barrier like a horde of beasts. With there every strike, they demonstrated an unwavering determination as if their lives depended on penetrating the barrier. But despite the continuous trembling their strikes caused , the barrier showed no immediate signs of giving way.However, the captain knew that the energy of the barrier wouldn’t be able to hold for another hour if this continued. He felt If the Mid-ranking Orcs or the Tier 7 Orc decided to lend their strength, the barrier would surely collapse within the next thirty minutes.Even though the captain had spoken confidently about defending the city, the loss of contact with the academy and the inability to call for backup had already planted the seed of escape in his mind if things took a turn for the worse. He was a selfish person and not the type to sacrifice his life for such matters, In fact, if it weren’t for the barrie
The Orc leaders were still surprised by the salvo of arrows that had been shot at the Orc soldiers, They hadn’t even had time to prepare a command before the second round landed, killing many Orcs who were still climbing up the walls. Witnessing the deaths of their companions, the remaining Orcs decided to proceed with caution as the Tier 7 Orcs ordered them to raise their shields that was strapped to their backs in defense against any more arrows. However, no more arrows were launched after the second round.Despite the absence of arrows, the Orcs continued to climb cautiously, shielded as best they could. Their climbing speed dropped considerably, but they persisted with their shields up, with the fear that another round would just fall next. What the Orcs failed to realize was that the guards had stopped shooting arrows not because they were reloading, but because the commanding guard had sent a group of guards to collect rocks strewn near the gates.Although the Black armoured
At the academy, the entire council of esteemed Great Instructors had gathered in the meeting hall of the new Dean’s House. As they exchanged uneasy glances, the weight of hurt and anger was palpable among them. All of this stemmed from a revelation that shook them to the core.It had all started when one of the two Tier 8 mages who is responsible for guarding the space passages to the Orc regions approached the new Dean with grave news. That the portal that had functioned flawlessly for years had undergone a drastic change, and the once serene blue light had transformed into a forbidding shade of red, impeding any mage from entering the space passage.This development alone was enough for the academy to realize that the city in the Abyss was under attack. But what infuriated the new Dean even more was the discovery that there were no assigned High Tier mages within the based city in the Abyss. Their absence was undoubtedly the reason why the space passage had been sealed off that
