In fact, this night Azzim only sleeps for a few hours. As usual, he always wakes up earlier after the midnight. After all, all of his fatigue has already completely gone, and he really doesn’t need much rest right right now. Meanwhile, at this time, he feels most of his burden has gone since realizing Leia returned to the first stage trial to help him. “She really doesn’t get it,” Azzim whines as he shakes his head. He gets out of the sleeping pod, intending to leave the dark room. But then, he finds that Dino is currently sleeping at the lounge room. Azzim sighs a bit, feeling a bit of regret for thinking that he asked Dino to wake him up while now he finds him asleep so peacefully. Azzim goes outside and look at the sky. It’s already getting a little brighter. Soon, it will be dawn. He doesn’t know where Leia and the others currently. He rushes back inside to wake Dino. “Hey, Dino! Wake up!” Azzim pinches Dino’s nose. “Ngg?” “Where are the others?” Azzim asks. “They sleep at
Ten men from two different parties, led by Gordon and Lorior, hunt down Azzim and his friends. One of Lorior’s member, Zircho, looking so eager to be the one who finds them. He keeps running behind Marioka who lead the group while tracking his prey. Only when Zircho sees Azzim from afar, he quickens his run past Marioka. “Hey, Zircho! Don’t be reckless!” Lorior warns. But Zircho doesn’t look like he pay any attention to his leader’s warning. Now, the other inmates have no choice but go after him, not wanting to let Zircho to fight all of those five inmates by himself. Apparently, Azzim has deliberately decided to take a separate way from his party members. He intends to lure those who hunting him to follow the traces he left. And so, currently, Zircho and the rest keep hunting Azzim. On the other hand, Leia is casually walking along the others in a certain part of the jungle. She keeps walking in a straight line and in a constant pace, to make Azzim to be easier to find them later
Now let me take you back a few moments after Azzim killed Zircho, right after Drago chooses to go ahead without following Leia’s lead. And yes, this is about our muscle hero, Drago. Like he said that it’s only about walking in straight path. But no, he doesn’t take any straight path at all. He keeps waving his left bulky arm while walking, disturbing the balance of his step as he keeps thinking that he is walking straight. The more he walks, the more he is strayed from the path Leia currently take. He often stops, intending to wait for Leia and the rest to catch up to him, without realizing he has taken a different direction from the others. “That’s what happens when you have to walk with ladies. They are so slow like faggots. Well, admit they are sexy unlike faggot. But damn, what takes them so long,” he whines. Out of nowhere, a kind of honey pumpkin drops into his head. Luckily for him, he has such a hard skull. But still… “Fuck! What was that? That’s hurt, bitch!” And then, o
On the way to the shrine, Azzim lets Dino do as he pleases with the insect-type monsters he encounters. After all, that’s all they find in this area around the valley.But strangely, Dino finds the holographic texts of those insect-type monsters are all white, or at least pale yellow. He is a little curious and starts to check his status. There he is surprised, suddenly finds that he has already reached level 3.“What is wrong with you?” asks Hannah, who isn’t quite used to seeing Dino's weird behavior like touching the empty air in front of her.However, Dino ignores Hannah and rushes after Azzim. He tells him about the oddity he just found. As he recalls, he hasn't killed too many monsters, and those insects should have dark yellow holographic texts and should give him quite a bit of experience. But in fact, now he didn’t get what he had expected.“You see, they no longer give significant effect in my leveling progress. Some of them don’t even give me any experience at all,” says Di
Meanwhile, Zack and his friends are still being hunted down by other inmates. In fact, they had already killed two of the pursuers. They could just fight them back. But there’s still a risk that one of them, especially the level 0 Bascha, would die. “See! We really should have just taken a break for a while and let those people to get some levels. That way, they wouldn’t see us as a massive threat anymore, and won’t try to gang up on us,” Marvini grumbles on the run. Andrio, the one who insisted for them to not taking a period of break, looks so annoyed with Marvini’s grumble. But somehow, he couldn’t refute back to her words. “Zack, I’ll leave them to you,” says Andrio as he decides to stop. “Hey, what are you thinking?” asks Zack. “I’ll lure them away. I’s okay. I can run faster than them. I’ll catch up to you later,” Andrio replies. As if he believes in Andrio’s ability, Zack accepts his idea and keeps moving without any second though. Somehow, Andrio has a telepathic observa
Only now does Azzim begin to understand why those monkey monsters had not dared to approach this place before. Because Azzim knows, there’s only one group of pirates that inhabit this first stage of the trial realm, and those people are a group of very high level of simulated creatures.“Leia, take the other to leave this place immediately,” Azzim issues.Leia rushes to the other friends secretly, intending to immediately take them to leave the shrine immediately. Meanwhile, Azzim remains standing at the entrance. He knows if they are indeed the pirates he has in mind, running away is by no means an option. Because they will surely easily catch him and the others.There is no other choice but to keep them there, to give Leia and the others enough time to escape. However, Azzim is still not so sure and still a little confused, why pirates like them could exist in such a place like this shrine. As he recalls, this afternoon he looked around from the height of this shrine, he didn't find
That night, in the middle of that tropical rain forest, there is absolutely no moon in sight. Not too many stars are seen because the sky is quite covered by clouds since the afternoon. The situation of the woods around the shrine is quite quiet from the other creatures. Except for the swearing of the man called "The Smelly Gorg", which has been only head left.That man is getting louder since Azzim hangs the head at a stake in one corner of the altar. Azzim is quite aware that the other monsters do not dare to approach the shrine because of this man's presence. Now, he uses the head like a protective amulet, to keep them safe from any evil creatures.“How could ye hang me like this? Get me down, scumbag. Get my body back here 'n let's see who be the stronger. I might be drunk, but I be more than enough t' wipe that slutty arse o' yer, ye scabby, poxy swine!”“Come on, old man! You've lost the fight. Just be a man and admit defeat already,” says Drago, keeps teasing that bodyless head
On the other hand, the other three are busy dealing with so many rat monsters on the lower floor of the shrine. The place is so wet and cold. Almost all of its walls are covered by the moss. There are actually a few windows, but they are tightly closed by large tree roots which are sticking out of the walls and floors of the building.Dino is looking so fiery, blasting out those rats who are coming from all direction. Even though he is just getting level 7, he is already accustomed enough in using his flame. However, his efficiency in using mana is still so bad.“Dino, don’t just waste your mana to kill these rats. We might need your fire later if something happens with these torches,” says Leia.Just as she finishes that warning. Dino’s flame is indeed dying out. He is finding it hard to blow out more fire. Leia looks at him with a cold stare, while Dino’s face drastically changes, turning pale as he realizes he is really out of mana.“I believe, even your mana regeneration is also s
