Let's go" August suddenly calmly said as he made to step on the bridge.

"Don't!!" Zach immediately panicked as he tugged August by the arm, pulling him back with a frightened expression.

As for the other Sentries, they were also sporting terrified expressions as they stared at August like they were looking at a mad man.

Even after witnessing what happened to the two scouts, he still wanted to fearlessly pass through this terrifying bridge?

Was his brain fried or what?!!!

Looking at their frightened expressions, August slowly shook his head, not bothering to conceal the disappointment he felt.

"Staying here would be completely useless. If my guess is right, whatever danger lies in this bridge, we won't be able to find out no matter how many scouts we send out. My guess is that this bridge is enveloped in an illusion rune matrix that warps space. So, whatever danger lies ahead, we have no choice but to experience it ourselves" as soon as August dropped this sentence, he directly

    "If you lot are excited about just this, then I wonder how you are going to react when you see the main inheritance?" August shook his head as he gave the mini mountain of nebula stones a look of disinterest. When the Seven surviving Sentries heard his ambiguous words, they couldn't help gulping heavily. At that point they felt like the setback they had all gone through was very worth it. Since August had shown his disinterest in the mini mountain of nebula stones, the seven Sentries spent the next half an hour excavating them before splitting the spoils equally amongst themselves. Excavating nebula stones was anything but easy and the process was very complicated. The slightest mistake could cause serious issues as such the excavation was carried out very meticulously. "Are you guys done?" a slight sneer hung on August lips when he saw the excited grins on the Seven Sentries. "We are. We are" Zach had the widest grin. As a Runelock, although he didn't require Nebula stones to c

    Boom. Boom. Boom. The sound of heavy footsteps echoed loudly as a large army of Winged Panda Men marched forward in a surprisingly organized formation. They were currently in a strange environment that resembled a large Hall. Behind them was a winding stair case where even more Winged Panda Men were marching from. At the lead was a Winged Panda Man who held a large club the size of a grown man. He had a helmet covering the majority of his face and wore a silver colored piece of armor. The rest of the unarmored Winged Panda Men looked at their armored colleague with respect. "The barrier is getting weaker. Very soon we will kill all humans!" the silver armored Winged Panda Man roared as it held up it's large club into the air while staring at the spinning whirl pool ten meters from him. "Kill!!" the army of Winged Panda Men behind him roared in reply as well while banging their thick fist on their chest. Whoosh! Just then, the whirlpool fluctuated unstably. Seeing this, the Si

    "Die human!!" the Silver General finally pulled out the blood red sword that was stuck against it's breastplate as it charged towards Aiden. "Come!!" Aiden licked his lower lips as he charged forward, the lightning gauntlet swiftly got replaced by the Klypt Gauntlets as he threw a punch forward Boom! The surrounding air exploded due to the collision. However this time Aiden wasn't in a disadvantage but was instead in a deadlock. "Your little trick won't work on me for the second time" Aiden sneered as his eyes went blood red. Blzzzt! A blood red beam shot out from his eyes, causing sparks to fly as the laser beam struck the incoming tail of the Silver General. "What a tough tail " Aiden clicked his tongue as his feet tapped the ground twice, causing a small hole to form beneath him. Jumping in, a new hole formed on the ground behind the Silver General, revealing Aiden who jumped out, clawing towards the neck of the Silver General. The other party was wearing a full body armo

    As soon as Aiden defeated the Silver General and received the system rewards, he immediately began to ascend the stairs of the Beast Ruins. Beast Ruins were peculiar pocket dimensions in the sense that unlike the regular world that was a boundless landscape, Beast Ruins were shaped into various levels. The lowest levels was often occupied by weaker Feind beasts while the higher levels were the home turf of the more powerful ones. As for the highest level, it was the home turf of the Ruins Boss. Normally a Beast Ruins consisted of just a single Boss. However in some rare cases they had been discoveries of two or more Bosses. During a Ruins Rift, Feind Beasts could only invade the regular world by passing through the Ruins gate at the lowest level. However their passage was in a chronological pattern from the weakest to strongest. This was why normally during a Ruins Rift, the weaker Feinds were the first to begin the invasion while the strongest ones were always the last to emerge.

    "Aren't we there yet?" a Sentry grumbled as he stood at the edge of the Runic sailing boat while looking ahead at the thick mist that made it difficult for him to even see his fingers."This mist is blocking my cognizance from scouting ahead. I can only scout twenty meters ahead, however I am yet to discover a shore" Zach replied with a frown as he continued mentally controlling the runic ship.Cognizance was an ability exclusive to Runelocks just like the way the movement skill Flash was exclusive to Warlocks. It allowed them the ability to partially project their consciousness forward. This meant a powerful Runelock could be in city A and still be able to accurately witness what was happening in City B.However the distance that a Runelock's cognizance could cover varied. Zach was no one pushover as he was a Runelock whose cognizance could cover a range of a thousand meters. However upon arriving within the strange mist, the range his cognizance could cover shrinked all the way to j

    Shriieeek!!! an almost limitless number of purple colored tentacles swayed around as a huge head shot out from the depth of the poisonous waters, roaring into the sky. The force of its roar caused a large turbulence in the water, causing the nearby Runic ship to sway about unsteadily while the thick mist in the air slowly parted away. Thanks to the disappearance of the obstruction, the appearance of the pissed off beast finally got revealed. It was a mountain like Cuttlefish cephalopod. It was about 1400 feet in total length and about hundred blood shot eyes littered about on its head. The strange beast was covered in purple colored scales and a Large unicorn like horn stuck out from the middle of its large head. However unlike harmless unicorns, its horn were about the size of a battle ship cannon and was filled with strange patterns. Its multiple tentacles flayed about like only by doing so could it express its rage.. "Stupid beast. You could no longer remain hidden after that

    "Hmpfh. Not many people know of this. In the past I was once a member of the Star Impact Guild. During a trip in a Beast Ruins, I witnessed Xavier face off against the Boss of a level three Beast Ruins that was on the verge of transforming into a level four Beast Ruins. However guess what happened when they were about to fight?" Zach voice became excited as he licked his lower lips.. "He did something that I would never forget in my entire life. He merely pointed at the Boss level Feind and said a single word.. explode. And the head of the boss level Feind exploded!" "So tell me, how can such a terrifying existence possibly lose to August?" Zach smirked confidently. "But how is that even possible?" although the Sentries were not present, they felt scared just imagining the scene of Xavier commanding the Boss of a level three Beast Ruins to explode their head. One had to know that such an existence was comparable to a peak Delta Warrior Magi. Not to mention unlike Magis, Feind Bea

    Silence. After the death of the baby Thousand Eyed Devil Kraken, the whole atmosphere descended into a stiffling silence. Hovering in the air, August took in a deep breath as the red shade in his eyes slowly vanished. "This sword is scary!" he gave the longsword a look of trepidation as he swiftly sent it back to his storage ring. Just now he had been temporarily possessed by the artifact spirit. If his willpower was any weaker and he had held on to the longsword for much longer, his consciousness would've been completely overwritten by the artifact spirit. "Although using this sword is powerful, I should watch how I use it untill I have completely won the recognition of the artifact spirit" he gave himself a mental warning as the golden boots he wore flickered brilliantly, bringing him back to the runic ship. "That dirty beast must've been the obstacle we had to face in this mist region. If my guess is right, we are drawing near the shore" he informed Zach, ignoring the frighte

    "What is the meaning of this?!" August brows creased as he scanned his eyes around, observing the twelve matrix pillars around him. He attempted to move only to realize that his movement speed came out far slower than he planned. "No!" he shook his head as he suddenly realized something. It wasn't just his movement speed that was being affected, he could also sense that the flow of his beta force was beginning to slow down as well. "You've begun feeling the effect no?" with her previously pale expression regaining its color, Captain Millie's Rune Cape appeared behind her as she took into the skies, looking down on the confused August with a sneer. "Basically you are trapped in the Diamond grade Rune Matrix, Twelve Points G Pole.." "D-diamond grade?!" August chest tightened. What the hell was this?! he just concluded battling an opponent with a delta level enchanted armament, now he was trapped within a friggin diamond grade rune matrix Although he had no idea what the capab

    "Is it just me? or does somebody else have to say it?" Captain Millie gulped nervously as her eyes were fixedly trained on the cloud of swirling dust in the distance. "You aren't the only one.. Captain Sarai's energy signature disappeared.." Captain High Valley balled his fist. Although it was a given that taking down August was going to result in serious casualties and perhaps death, it still didn't hurt less when it eventually happened. "Brace yourselves!" Owling's warning had only just rang out when a fast moving figure shot out from the cloud of dust. Although August seemed to be clearly using the Celestial Steps footwork, his trajectory appeared to be strictly linear. "To think he's already capable of utilizing the second level of Celestial Steps, Blazing Trail.." Captain High Valley's expression went ashen. "Now!" Owling held out his fist. At that moment, Captain Millie and a chubby male Sentry who went by the name Beau, suddenly shot into the air as their fingers perfo

    "Who are you and why do you look like me?" Aiden shot Nedia an accusing glare as he tried activating [Lightning Gauntlet] while adopting a fighting stance. —[Action Failed] "Impossible!" Aiden's expression went ashen. "Don't bother. As long as you are here, you are completely under my mercy.." Nedia clicked his tongue as he observed Aiden keenly. "Not bad. You got my looks.." he nodded in satisfaction. "What are you talking about? why the hell do you look like me?" "I look like you?.." Nedia's lips curled as his gaze became ruthless. ".. Ballsy!" With a single lift of his brows, a terrifying pressure descending upon Nedia as he got pummeled into the lake of blood. As soon as that happened, he noticed the entire scenery seemed to have experienced a transition. He was no longer in the red world, but in a countryside village like environment. "I.. I know this place!" floating in the air from above, Aiden's gaze fell on a smallish figure that bore a striking resemblance to h

    "Hmm.. from what you've told me so far about this Rio character, you envy him.." Dr. List observed Aiden keenly. They've been ten minutes deep in their therapy session and so far, she's succeeded in holding a two way conversation with him. For her, this was progress. "I envy the privileges he had. There was even a time when I wished to have his life.." Aiden shook his head self loathingly. "Oh? and why would you ever think of that? you have to know that no matter how it appears to be on the surface, nobody's life is a rose without its thorns.." Aiden's brows knitted as he adopted a serious tone. "Rio was different. He had everything I ever wanted.. loving parents who spent all their time doting on him, a confident social life.. if I started listing them I'm afraid I won't be able to stop.." "Hmm.. makes sense. However you mentioned parents who spent all their time doting on him.. do you mean to say they are dead?" Aiden nodded, causing Dr. List to exhale. "That must've been

    "He must be dead.." Captain Sarai's lips twisted into a grimace of relief as she stared at the cloud of icy mist before her a couple distances away. "It wasn't so hard now was it.." her victorious grin was cut shot when she noticed a fluid sliding down from her nose. Dabbing it with her fingers, her brows furrowed. "Blood?" at that moment, her vision suddenly became fuzzy as she nearly tripped before finally finding her balance. "Tch. It would seem that I am near my limit.. " she clicked her tongue regretfully before glancing towards the rising cloud of icy mist. "Luckily I was able to dish out serious damage before my fumes ran out.." "Oh really?" a mocking sneer suddenly echoed, causing a shiver to run up Captain Sarai's spine. She instantly stomped her right heel on the ground, initiating a backflip as she landed a dozen paces away. She had only just done that when a heavy and equally fast object slammed down on her previous position. If she had been any second later, no do

    "So I'm going to ask again.." Dr. List smiled briefly at Aiden. "Are you nervous because this is your first experience at therapy?" Aiden bit his lower lips. He appeared to be on the verge on saying something before pushing his lips as he nodded. Dr. List narrowed her eyes, easily seeing through his lies. "So I heard from your friend outside that you've been experiencing some mental nightmarish experiences?" Dr. List donned her professional face. "She's just exaggerating.. I was just having a bad dream. That's all.." "Heh.." Dr. List adjusted the rims of her glasses. "You aren't being completely honest with me. This surely isn't your first time experiencing this kind of trance like state.. am I wrong?" Aiden tried averting his gaze as his lips moved, obviously in the process of spewing another lie. However somebody else beat him to the punch. "Now, let's put that on a temporary pause and talk about you instead.." "Me?" Aiden was momentarily taken aback by the sudden transit

    "Huh?" the look of confidence on August expression soon disappeared a couple moments after. "What is the meaning of this?!" his expression went ashen. No matter how much energy he channeled into the longsword, not a single rune lit up. Forget partial activation, there wasn't even a single reaction. "What did you do?!" clenching his jaws in rage, he roared in outrage. "What I did?" "For somebody of your status, I thought you'd know about this fact by now?' the sneer in Captain Sarai's statement stroked August rage even more. "The situation is simple really. I have received the recognition of my artifact spirit, you haven't. As such no matter whether your enchanted armament surpasses mine in rankings, it won't mean shit. Right now, your enchanted armament is nothing but a useless hunk of metal.. " "No. No!" August expression fell. "You must be lying!" Channeling more energy into the longsword, a greenish halo surrounded its surface as an Hex Pattern appeared behind August wit

    Within the swirling cloud of dust.. Bang! Bang! Bang! A katana and a fist collided multiple times before suddenly coming to a stop as both opposing parties skipped back, drawing distance between themselves. "Oh?" August lips curled in amusement as he noticed the beads of sweat across Captain Saria's forehead. "Are you worried that you might cause more damage than good? don't worry I can tell that the runic matrix around us is sturdy enough to withstand anything you throw at it.." "... However I don't think the same can be said for me!" tapping his feet on the ground, August disappeared. "Hngh" flipping the hilt of her katana, Captain Sarai suddenly pierced it towards her right. "Nice try!" August suddenly arrived at that particular spot. The tip of the katana was merely a couple inches from piercing through his throat. However August footwork speed suddenly tripled as the blade missed him narrowly. Extending his right palm, he slammed it against Captain Sarai's face, as he sh

  • Chapter 389 — August Dies Today!

    "Seriously? you lot are just going to stand there staring at me like it's a contest? aren't you the upholders of justice?" August jeered mockingly, causing the Guild Captains to clench their jaws in rage. Fortunately all of them who were present were battle veterans. They could instantly deduce that August was merely trying to goad them into making the first move. Although his traitorous schemes were now exposed, that didn't make him any less dangerous. He was the Captain of an X-rank Guild.. an existence like that were rumored to possess the power to challenge an entire country without any foreign intervention. Although it was often regarded as an alligory, that went to show just how terrifying Captains from X-rank Guilds were. "Screw this!" one of the Sentries finally decided to make that first move. He was known as Loras, the Captain of a D-rank Guild. Lunging towards August, his storage ring glowed as a curved dagger slipped into his grasp which he slashed towards August n
