Synopsis
The human Race is at war with the Vicious Dalki and when they needed help more than ever, THEY started to come forward.
Humans who had hidden in the shadows for hundreds of years, people with abilities.
Some chose to share their knowledge to the rest of the world in hopes of winning the war, while others kept their abilities to themselves.
Quinn had lost everything to the war, his home, his family and the only thing he had inherited was a crummy old book that he couldn’t even open.
But when the book had finally opened, Quinn was granted a system and his whole life was turned around.
He completed quest after quest and became more powerful, until one day the system gave him a quest he wasn’t sure he could complete.

00:00:00The VR room was the best place to practice, and now that he had access to Logan's private
00:00:05server, it meant Quinn could also practice his shadow abilities freely.
00:00:09The first thing Quinn was going to do was have a look at the new tutorial video he had
00:00:13unlocked after learning the Vampire Martial Arts.
00:00:17Phantom Punch Tutorial, hello there, the blonde man in a cheery voice said in the video.
00:00:23In my opinion, this is one of the most useful skills to have, but just a little warning,
00:00:29this skill seems to work better with beings with a high level of intelligence, namely
00:00:33humanoid creatures.
00:00:35When testing this against a beast, it has little to no effect.
00:00:38To perform this skill based on the system stats, you will need at least 15 points of
00:00:43agility and 10 points of charm.
00:00:45These are the minimum requirements.
00:00:47Now as you increase your points into charm and agility, this skill will work even better.
00:00:52While in a fight, you will aim your punch in a certain direction to start.
00:00:56Before the first movement is made, your charm skill will take slight control of the user's
00:01:00mind.
00:01:01To them, an image will appear and make it look like the punch has continued heading
00:01:05in the initial direction.
00:01:07But in fact, this will be a phantom punch.
00:01:10While the user is dodging or trying to block it, the real blow will come from somewhere
00:01:14else.
00:01:15This skill works even better if you have high enough agility.
00:01:19You will be able to perform several phantom punches at once, confusing your opponent.
00:01:24Be careful.
00:01:25Just like with daze, it has a chance of not working well.
00:01:29This is why I recommend you to increase your charm points when possible.
00:01:33He explained it by saying, it should feel similar to when Quinn would use the daze skill.
00:01:38He should gather that feeling again and try to focus it through his eyes.
00:01:42Then using his strong will and the image in his head, he would be able to project a fist
00:01:47outward.
00:01:48This in turn would allow the opponent to see the same thing.
00:01:51After hearing the explanation, Quinn didn't think it would be too hard.
00:01:55But just practicing it, not using it against an opponent, he found out it was extremely
00:02:00difficult.
00:02:02If he projected thoughts to target the head and tried punching below, as soon as he thought
00:02:06too much about hitting the head, his fist would automatically hit upward.
00:02:10Still, Quinn wasn't the type to give up.
00:02:13As he repeated the move several times, he could slowly separate his thoughts and actions
00:02:18into two separate things.
00:02:20He didn't know whether it was because he was in the game or trying to split his thought
00:02:24into two, but he would often get headaches as he pictured himself using the charm ability
00:02:29while forcing the energy outward from his eyes.
00:02:33Your dedication has paid off.
00:02:35You have pushed your charm skill to the limit several times.
00:02:38Charm stat plus 1.
00:02:40Charm 13.
00:02:42It was the first time a stat point had increased without him leveling up or consuming blood.
00:02:47The system was clear that it was a fact that Quinn had continuously pushed himself while
00:02:52trying to learn the skill.
00:02:54Switching servers.
00:02:56Blood Evolver is online.
00:02:58Matchmaking in progress.
00:03:00Opponent found.
00:03:01There were myriads of abilities that could help you work better in this field, but nothing
00:03:05could compare to the greatness of the human mind when it came to creative thinking and
00:03:09engineering which led to the creation of these fields.
00:03:12Nate had gotten one of these said people to set up a system in which he would get notified
00:03:17when the Blood Evolver was online.
00:03:19Recently, he had also added the new user ZombieP to that list as well.
00:03:24While Nate was relaxing with his best friend Sam, as usual, he received a notification.
00:03:30Nate immediately headed off towards the capsule.
00:03:33Quinn had been matched up with another level 4 user, but unlike the ones he fought against
00:03:37previously.
00:03:39This user was also wearing beast gear around his chest.
00:03:42As he turned his head around, Quinn made sure to look him in the eyes just as the video
00:03:47tutorial had said.
00:03:48He activated his charm the same way when he used the daze skill.
00:03:52Now all he needed to do was project the thought strongly, using his mind of aiming to punch
00:03:57the head, while the real punch would come from below.
00:04:01Everything was going perfect so far, and he could imagine hitting the person in the head.
00:04:06Then his fist made contact, but instead of receiving feedback from hitting the body,
00:04:10the punch had been blocked with the other user's hand, which was guarding his face.
00:04:14No, I thought I did it perfectly, why did my attack go for the head?
00:04:18Quinn thought.
00:04:20Quinn previously thought he had perfected the phantom punch, but using it with no opponent
00:04:25and using it against a real opponent were two different things.
00:04:29With the pressure to perform perfectly and with the enemy standing in front of him, his
00:04:33concentration lagged at some point, so his attack failed.
00:04:37Eventually the match had ended, and Quinn unsurprisingly lost.
00:04:42Nate was speechless.
00:04:43He thought he was the only person who had beaten the Blood Evolver before, and the one
00:04:47he knew now was a lot stronger than before.
00:04:51Once again, Quinn went into the next match.
00:04:54Nate stayed and watched carefully, but it seemed to be nearly an exact copy of the last
00:04:58game.
00:05:00After watching four matches, the Blood Evolver had lost, four times in a row.
00:05:05There were a few others who had become fans as well, and they were nearly just as disappointed
00:05:09as him with the results they were seeing right now.
00:05:12No one would usually lose a match without giving it everything they got, and in the
00:05:16last four games, Quinn didn't use a single skill other than the flash step and the failed
00:05:22phantom punch.
00:05:24After losing five matches in a row, the only person that kept on watching Blood Evolver's
00:05:28matches was Nate.
00:05:30He didn't know why, but he felt that there had to be a reason for all the strange actions
00:05:34that Blood Evolver did in the past matches.
00:05:38The reason for his thinking was the fact that Quinn had lost every game doing the same thing.
00:05:43Only an idiot would do the same thing over and over again, expecting different results.
00:05:48As the next match started, Quinn now looked more confident than he did before.
00:05:52His opponent was a female.
00:05:54The ability for now was unknown, as the inspection skill didn't work in-game.
00:06:00Quinn rushed forward as usual, but this time, no attacks were aimed at him.
00:06:04When this happened, it usually meant the person he was going up against had a transformation
00:06:09or hardening ability, the perfect opponent for the phantom strike.
00:06:14Quinn lifted his fist and aimed for the woman's head.
00:06:17As she saw the punch, a large spike appeared on her face.
00:06:21If Quinn was to carry on moving forward, then the spike would go right through his hand.
00:06:26She could see the punch rushing forward and about to go through the spike.
00:06:29A smile appeared on her face, but suddenly, she felt pain in her stomach as she keeled over.
00:06:35Phantom punch skill successfully learned!
00:06:38The fist hadn't hit her head, but struck her stomach instead.
00:06:42Quinn continued using the phantom punch in this fashion, successfully landing hit after hit,
00:06:48while on the outside, Nate, who was watching the entire thing, was deeply confused.
00:06:53All he could see was Quinn's opponent forming spikes and blocking the attacks in the wrong places.
00:06:59It was clear where the punches were coming from, so why was she constantly blocking in the wrong place?
00:07:05The match had finally ended, and Quinn had been declared the winner, but Nate was even more confused now.
00:07:12However, after watching the Blood Evolvers' next three games, and each one of them coming
00:07:16out in a victory in the same fashion, goosebumps started to appear all over his body.
00:07:22Once the system had confirmed Quinn that he had learned phantom punch, everything got
00:07:26a lot easier from then onwards.
00:07:28Instead of concentrating on the feeling like he did before, now all he had to do was think
00:07:33about the skill, and his mind would automatically do the work for him.
00:07:37Finally, the day had arrived.
00:07:38It was the weekend, and all the first-year students were told to gather inside the portal room once again.
00:07:44It was time to go through the orange portal.
00:07:47All the groups present, please raise their orange scanning devices, Dell said as he raised
00:07:51the scanner for everyone to see.
00:07:53You will only need to point it at an object.
00:07:56If you can see that on the screen, you can select the area or item that you want to scan.
00:08:00It will try its best to break down the information it has received and display it on the screen
00:08:05for you, although this is not the goal of the expedition.
00:08:09What you students need to do is look for things on the planet which have never been scanned
00:08:12before, and this includes beasts.
00:08:15In your teams, each newly scanned object will earn you points.
00:08:18If the item has been scanned before, you will receive no points.
00:08:22There is quite a range on these scanners.
00:08:24Before engaging in combat, it will scan every beast that is within your vision.
00:08:28The most useful thing about these scanners is that, even if they have never seen a beast
00:08:32before, it will be able to tell you what level the beast is at.
00:08:37After the explanation with the scanners was over, Dell went on to tell them how the expedition
00:08:42would work between the classes.
00:08:44Each class, together with their homeroom teacher, would be sent off to a certain area.
00:08:49When they reached their assigned space, the class would stay there for a while, allowing
00:08:53every one of the students to scan the area thoroughly.
00:08:57If they were to run into a beast with a tier higher than intermediate, they were advised
00:09:01to fall back and tell the teacher immediately.
00:09:04The homeroom teacher would then inform the generals, who would come to their aid as soon
00:09:08as possible.
00:09:10As soon as Dell's lecture was finished, the groups began making their final preparations.
00:09:15While Quinn was looking around, he noticed that Logan was already tinkering around with
00:09:19the scanner, no doubt making adjustments to the scanner's system.
00:09:23All of a sudden, he felt a soft touch on his shoulder, interrupting his observations.
00:09:28Hey, do you need one of these if we're going outside?
00:09:32Fex said as he waved a strange object in front of Quinn.
00:09:35It looked like a flask made out of silver.
00:09:38The only difference was that, on the facade of the flask, a skull that had two sharp fangs
00:09:43on the upper jaw was displayed.
00:09:45It was a strange design for Quinn.
00:09:47If you used a normal flask, the blood would spoil in a few days.
00:09:51However, this one is especially used within the circle of vampires to keep blood fresh,
00:09:57Fex explained.
00:09:58Fex then pulled out a similarly styled flask from the inside of his shirt and handed it
00:10:03straight over to Quinn.
00:10:05Finally, Dell had begun to call each group into the portal.
00:10:08The group took a step forward as they prepared for what was to come in their orange portal
00:10:13expedition.
00:10:34While going through the portal, the group made sure to hold on to the person in front
00:10:37of them tightly.
00:10:39Finally, the distorted space ended and white light could be seen up ahead.
00:10:43When their eyesight slowly returned, the first thing they could see was green, lots of green.
00:10:49More specifically, giant green trees.
00:10:51''Please step aside to allow the other students to arrive,'' a loud voice said as he pointed
00:10:56to his side.
00:10:58Just like last time, they had arrived in one of the areas that had been circled off.
00:11:02The group went over to where the man pointed, and it seemed there were other groups of students
00:11:06standing by the side, waiting as well.
00:11:08Several soldiers were checking and coordinating with them, making sure they stayed in place
00:11:13and didn't wander off.
00:11:15''It's a lot better organized than our last trip,'' Layla said.
00:11:19The first thing Quinn did was pop up his trusty umbrella to protect him from the sun, but
00:11:24this time, it didn't do much to make him feel better.
00:11:27The place was humid, hot, and sticky, and it looked like he wasn't the only one being
00:11:31affected as everyone around was sweating heavily as well.
00:11:35The shelter itself was vastly different as well.
00:11:38In a way, it looked incomplete.
00:11:40Most of it seemed to be made from some type of wood and mud, although the architecture
00:11:45was impressive.
00:11:46They had managed to build upon the large trees, incorporating them into their shelter.
00:11:51But the thing that surprised him the most was just how many residential houses there
00:11:55were in an orange portal like this one.
00:11:58''This is one of the cheapest places for people to live in,'' Layla explained.
00:12:02The citizens aren't required to pay tax on an orange planet, so those who can't live
00:12:07on Earth and can't even make a living on a green portal planet end up here.
00:12:12Quinn started having strange thoughts after hearing this from Layla.
00:12:15If it was true those who couldn't afford a place to live on Earth had no choice but to
00:12:20be here, then why didn't Quinn end up in one of these places like these kids?
00:12:25When his parents had died, a government official had come over and explained to him that they
00:12:29would look after him until he was 16 and provide him with an apartment.
00:12:33So why didn't these kids get the same type of treatment?
00:12:37The students were now being led along to an open space, and while doing so, they could
00:12:41see the people from the shelter and children come out from above.
00:12:45They looked down on the new students, peeking over from the bridge.
00:12:48All of the first-year students were once again lined up in rows with the homeroom teachers
00:12:52at the front, while Faye and Leo stood in the middle of all the classes.
00:12:57They had come to an open area of the man-made forest.
00:13:00The trees had been rooted and dug out, and the ground flattened.
00:13:04Most of what they were standing on was mud.
00:13:07They could also see several paths from the circle, open area leading deeper into the
00:13:11forest.
00:13:12All right, everyone, each class shall now explore a different path, Faye said.
00:13:16The scanners will not activate until your teachers say so.
00:13:20You will continue to follow the path, and your teachers will tell you when you are in
00:13:23an unexplored area.
00:13:25My last warning to you all, you will encounter beasts on this trip, at what level I do not
00:13:30know.
00:13:31I wish you all luck, Faye shouted.
00:13:34Fex, who was walking by Quinn's side, took in a deep breath of fresh air.
00:13:38Nah, compared to Earth and these planets with all the bright colors, our home has nothing,
00:13:43Fex moaned.
00:13:45While relocating, they had decided to choose a mostly dark place, and they also needed
00:13:49an atmosphere that they could still live in.
00:13:51They had found the perfect place for vampires, but I don't know why, but it always felt strange
00:13:56to me.
00:13:57The vampires were indeed no longer on Earth like they were when the blonde man was a vampire.
00:14:02At some point, they had relocated to a different planet.
00:14:05As they walked, Quinn decided to use his inspection skill on every new thing he saw.
00:14:10The pathway came to an end, and now the mud had turned into thick heavy leaves and short
00:14:15green plants.
00:14:16This should be a good spot, Del said as he placed his large shield onto the floor.
00:14:21They were now in an open area.
00:14:23There weren't as many trees and vines.
00:14:25It allowed them to see from all directions.
00:14:27Students are not to travel more than 200 meters from this spot.
00:14:31If you do, your scanner will notify you, indicating they will no longer work, Del explained.
00:14:37For each new plant discovered, you will receive 5 points.
00:14:40For each new beast discovery, 20 points.
00:14:42Alright, your scanners are on.
00:14:45At the same time, each of the scanners made a ding sound, and the students rushed off
00:14:49in different directions.
00:14:51Let's do this, Layla said.
00:14:53Let's get to the top for Aaron.
00:14:55Quinn liked that idea.
00:14:56He rushed off into a section of his own along with Peter and the rest.
00:15:00The battle for points was fierce as students continued to run around the area, scanning
00:15:04every item in sight.
00:15:06Damn, this has been scanned already, a student complained.
00:15:09Some of the weaker groups decided to stay together as they went around.
00:15:14Although this stopped other teams from snatching points from them, their progress was relatively
00:15:18slower than those who roamed alone.
00:15:20The stronger groups decided it would be best to split up.
00:15:24This way, they were able to cover a wider range, while the other groups decided to do
00:15:28a mixture of something in between.
00:15:30Out of the strategies implemented by different groups, to catch up to the others, Quinn's
00:15:35group decided to do a mixture of the two.
00:15:38They decided that they would travel around in pairs.
00:15:41Quinn and Peter, Layla and Vorden, and lastly, Fex and Sia.
00:15:46It was important for them to have one strong member with a support type member.
00:15:50The group had already split up, and while everyone was off looking for some new items
00:15:55to discover, Quinn noticed something peculiar.
00:15:58There were 10 groups, yet nearly every group had a single member that acted as a type of
00:16:03mule, a person designated to carry their belongings.
00:16:08After a closer inspection, he also noticed that these mules were people who had the lowest
00:16:12levels in their group.
00:16:14Nevertheless, they would still wander off and look around, as instructed by their team.
00:16:19Wouldn't this be the perfect chance?
00:16:21Quinn thought.
00:16:23Right now, they weren't in school, and many of the students had separated from each other.
00:16:28If he was to take a sample of their blood and mind control them afterwards to forget
00:16:32what had happened, no one would ever know what he had done.
00:16:35It was the perfect crime in such a perfect situation.
00:16:39Blood type A positive consumed, strength 20.
00:16:42Eventually, Quinn managed to find two more students, and he used the same tactic as before,
00:16:48getting him another two stat points.
00:16:50Quinn managed to get another blood type O, increasing his charm points to 14, while also
00:16:55obtaining another blood type A, increasing his strength.
00:16:59Faye and Leo were standing together at the starting point, where all the groups had split
00:17:03off.
00:17:04Suddenly, a beeping sound was heard from their watches, indicating that one of the teams
00:17:09had asked for help.
00:17:10I'll get to it," Faye said as she stormed off at lightning speed in the direction of
00:17:14one of the paths.
00:17:16Leo stood there, taking in the fresh smell around him, but it was quickly disturbed as
00:17:20another beep reverberated from his watch.
00:17:23Another one?
00:17:24Leo said.
00:17:25Is this planet more dangerous than we thought?
00:17:27He had hoped that perhaps the teachers were only being trigger-happy, sending out a signal
00:17:32prematurely.
00:17:33It was always better for them to be on the cautious side when it came to these things,
00:17:37but the fact that two signals were sent out at the same time concerned Leo.
00:17:42The group had managed to obtain 25 points in total.
00:17:45They also discovered and scanned a peculiar type of rock mineral in the mix.
00:17:50Still, they were vastly behind the others, and their weighted points at the end of everything
00:17:54would be negative 25.
00:17:57What they were doing at this moment wasn't working, and they needed a change of plan.
00:18:01The quickest way for them to earn points would be to find beasts.
00:18:06Just then, a few meters away from Quinn, one of the scanners had made three dings, a sound
00:18:13that he hadn't heard yet.
00:18:15The scanner pointed at what looked like a boulder that was stuck in the ground.
00:18:19The top part could be seen, and it had several areas of green moss growing over it.
00:18:25But after the student had finished scanning the unique object, he took a few steps backward.
00:18:30Panic was evident on his face.
00:18:32A beast! He shouted.
00:18:34I found a beast!
00:18:38Hi, Quinn here.
00:18:40Wondering what happens next?
00:18:41If you want to jump the queue and unleash all episodes, click on the link here and install
00:18:46the Pocket FM app.
00:18:52The student's teammates had gathered around the excited student to see what he was battling
00:18:56on about.
00:18:57One of the students, who was moving closer, turned out to be Quinn.
00:19:01The system granted him a special bonus when he first killed a beast, though this beast
00:19:05has never been seen by humans before.
00:19:08Perhaps being the first person to kill such a beast would also grant him additional points.
00:19:13The team that had discovered the beast gathered around the scanner, which displayed basic
00:19:17information about the beasts, and after reading one line, they were excited.
00:19:22It was a basic tier beast.
00:19:24Keeping this secret to themselves, they immediately dashed forward.
00:19:28If it was an intermediate tier beast, the group might have been a little cautious, but
00:19:32a basic tier was easy pickings for a team of five.
00:19:36Seeing the team of five, Quinn was upset about how hesitant he had been.
00:19:40But he couldn't act right now in front of these people.
00:19:42The beast that the group was chasing looked like an ordinary boulder that was stuck in
00:19:46the ground.
00:19:47Even now, as the students charged towards the thing, there was no reaction from the
00:19:51beast.
00:19:52It still looked like a boulder.
00:19:54Seeing this, an idea came to Quinn's mind.
00:19:57He ran aside the students who were captivated by what was happening and entered a different
00:20:01part of the forest.
00:20:03Fex too decided to go off and keep an eye on what Quinn was trying to do.
00:20:07Come on guys, we can't waste time just watching this thing, let's carry on looking around,
00:20:12Vorden said.
00:20:13The student's hand who was leading the charge turned into a brick-like substance, while
00:20:18the other students behind also drew their weapons and had their abilities readied.
00:20:23The student at the front slammed his fist into the boulder, a loud impact was heard,
00:20:27but there was no reaction.
00:20:29The ones from behind had also decided to use their attacks on the strange boulder-like
00:20:33beast, but the same had happened and it seemed like the shell was nearly impossible to break.
00:20:39Seeing that the so-called beast was doing nothing and not wanting to waste any more
00:20:43time, the students continued to scan around for other things.
00:20:47While everyone else had now lost interest in the beast, Quinn had not.
00:20:52He went through the forest using his inspection skill on every boulder-type thing he could
00:20:56see.
00:20:57Most of them were just that, regular boulders, but then he had finally achieved a result.
00:21:03Basic-tier beast, Boulder Snail.
00:21:05A beast that has an incredibly hard outer shell, the beast will only move in rain.
00:21:11He was unaware that he was being watched by Fex.
00:21:14Using strings as he walked between trees in the air, he made his movements silently, and
00:21:19now he was carefully watching Quinn from above.
00:21:22Quinn stomped his foot onto the ground, raised the energy inside him, and pulled back his
00:21:27arm as he led his other fist outward at the same time.
00:21:30He activated his skill, Blood Spray, to create his still most powerful strike, Blood Hammer.
00:21:37It sounded like someone had shot off a bullet in the middle of the forest.
00:21:40The beast had a large crack in the boulder, and black liquid was slowly dripping out from
00:21:45it.
00:21:46Basic Beast has been killed, 50 EXP gained.
00:21:50First time killing Boulder Snail, 100 bonus EXP gained.
00:21:54You are the first person to kill a Boulder Snail, 5,000 bonus EXP gained.
00:21:59Now, the loud sound that erupted from the impact of the Blood Hammer on the beast's
00:22:03shell had echoed throughout the forest.
00:22:06Within its chambers, a large figure dwelling deep inside a cave awoke.
00:22:11It shot red eyes flared open as it made its move towards the sound.
00:22:16For defeating the new type of beast, Quinn had gained a bonus of 5,000 points, which
00:22:21had leveled him up a total of three times, and now he also had six free stat points to
00:22:26play with.
00:22:27For now, he thought it was best if he was to keep these stat points in reserve.
00:22:32Quinn wanted to place the stat points into his Charm skill.
00:22:35Still, the Orange Portal planet was a dangerous place, and Quinn didn't know when he might
00:22:39need to use his other stats for dangerous situations.
00:22:43Before leaving the area, Quinn managed to shove his hand into the small crack he had
00:22:48made, even though it was only a basic tier crystal.
00:22:51Quinn was already thinking about what type of armor the crystal could be used for.
00:22:55It had been over an hour now, and the group had a total of 60 points.
00:22:59Now when students were scanning items with the scanner, it would constantly come up with
00:23:03an error.
00:23:0415 minutes had passed, and there wasn't a single sound indicating the students had found
00:23:09something.
00:23:10All right, students, everyone gather up in the center.
00:23:13It's time for us to move on to the next area, Dell shouted.
00:23:16As the students started to walk over to Dell, loud, low sounds could be heard, and vibration
00:23:21could be felt underneath their feet.
00:23:23A large beast stood on all fours and had a long neck.
00:23:27There was no fur, and it resembled something similar to a dinosaur.
00:23:31Even the size was something similar to what they would have imagined.
00:23:35The only difference was on its back, it seemed to have a large flower bud.
00:23:39It completely covered it from its neck to its tail.
00:23:43ADVANCED TIER BEAST FLORASAUR, UNABLE TO OBTAIN FURTHER INFORMATION
00:23:46Guys, we have to run, Quinn said in a serious tone.
00:23:51After finding out it was an advanced tier beast, Quinn didn't even think about the possibility
00:23:56of trying to defeat it because of its experience points.
00:23:59Last time, he almost died fighting against an intermediate beast.
00:24:03Dell was never much of a fighter, and his ability also didn't support that fact.
00:24:08Immediately, he started tapping his wristwatch, sending out a distress signal.
00:24:13Dell just wanted one of the sergeants to appear in front of them now.
00:24:17Out of all the students, Quinn was the first to take a step away, trying to get a head
00:24:21start on the other students, but the sound of his steps caused the leaves to ruffle,
00:24:25and the creatures had turned and immediately looked at Quinn.
00:24:29Maybe moving isn't a good idea, Layla said.
00:24:32Dell had felt the same way, which was why he hadn't shouted at the students to run away
00:24:36or retreat.
00:24:38The sudden movements could frighten the beasts.
00:24:40Most beasts were hostile towards humans, but the higher tiers seemed to have more intelligence
00:24:45and some would leave humans alone.
00:24:48The bud on the beast's back slowly started to open up, revealing a pink center.
00:24:53Out of the pink center, six vines rose in the air before dropping down and falling to
00:24:57the beast's side.
00:24:59Although the beast wasn't moving, the vines were stretching out from the buds as if there
00:25:03was no end in sight.
00:25:04One of the vines had reached the student closest to the beast.
00:25:08After waiting a while, nothing happened.
00:25:10The student eventually opened his eyes.
00:25:12At that moment, the head of the vine opened up and attached itself to the student.
00:25:17Using both hands, he grabbed onto the vine and tried to pull as hard as he could, but
00:25:22it was no use.
00:25:23The suction and stickiness of the vine were too strong and he couldn't break free.
00:25:28The vine lifted the student high into the air and towards the beast's mouth.
00:25:32Everyone, run!
00:25:33It's a hostile advanced-tier beast!
00:25:35Del shouted as he ran into a random part of the forest.
00:25:38However, while Del was running blindly through the forest, he was aware of a great problem.
00:25:44The distress signal sent from the watch was only a signal sent to the sergeants.
00:25:49They would then head over in that direction.
00:25:51If Leo or Faye was to head there now, they would have no clue where Del or the other
00:25:56students had gone.
00:25:57The students at the back could hear the booming footsteps getting louder and louder.
00:26:02When Del had made it past another tree, they had finally come out to an open area.
00:26:06The open area was quite large.
00:26:08To the left and right, there were two paths, but they were slightly slanted going uphill,
00:26:13and Del didn't like their chances of outrunning the beast.
00:26:16We have no choice!
00:26:17We have to turn and fight!
00:26:18Del shouted.
00:26:19The vines continued to hover around the beast's side as if they were alive like snakes, while
00:26:25the main body of the beast charged straight ahead into the students.
00:26:28Like a whip, the vines were used to knock the students who were closest to it.
00:26:32Healers and support-type abilities, come and stay behind me!
00:26:35We don't want you to get hurt!
00:26:37Del commanded.
00:26:38Anyone who uses a beast weapon as their main attack, come closer to me now!
00:26:42My ability allows me to double the strength and durability of any beast weapon for a limited
00:26:47time.
00:26:48We have to defeat the beast before time runs out!
00:26:50Quinn overheard Del said.
00:26:52Pio, come!
00:26:54Quinn shouted as he dashed off towards the fallen students on the ground.
00:26:58Peter wasn't the only one that was following Quinn.
00:27:01Right now on his other side, Fex was running closely behind him as well.
00:27:05I'll cover you while you do whatever you want to do, but you will owe me one after this!
00:27:09Fex said with a wink.
00:27:11As the three boys got closer to the beast, the vines started to head towards them, slashing
00:27:15out at an incredible speed.
00:27:18Now on the other side, another vine was coming towards them, and this time it was Fex's turn.
00:27:23Fex was a vampire, and was unable to use his ability just like Quinn, however, there was
00:27:28a clear advantage of Fex's ability over others.
00:27:32When using his string ability, it was almost invisible to the human eye.
00:27:36As the vine came towards him, spread both his hands out and slashed it downward, cutting
00:27:40the head of the vine right off.
00:27:42However, just like with Peter, the vine seemed to have an incredible recovery speed, and
00:27:47right now, the head was starting to form out of the cut cells by Fex.
00:27:52Quinn placed his finger into the student's blood around the chest.
00:27:55It was too far away for the other students to see the finer details, and everyone else
00:27:59was busy fighting the beast.
00:28:02Quickly shifting his hand into his mouth, he quickly picked up the student and rushed
00:28:06back to the others.
00:28:07AB blood type consumed, stamina 18.
00:28:11Quinn repeated this process with the other students who had been hit.
00:28:15In total, he managed to save 5 students, and at the same time consume their blood.
00:28:20All in all, Quinn had gotten stronger.
00:28:23Strength 23, Agility 19, Stamina 18, Charm 16.
00:28:29While Quinn was busy looking at his stats, and the two by his side were busy dealing
00:28:33with the vines, a third vine had already set its sight on Quinn.
00:28:38When the two had looked at each other, the vine had set its target.
00:28:42It reached out as far as it could to grab onto Quinn.
00:28:45Just as the vine was about to reach Quinn, its movements suddenly slowed, and Quinn was
00:28:49able to create a distance between the two.
00:28:52That's when he noticed the strange, ghost-like spear, half of its body inside an elephant.
00:28:58The spirit spear?
00:29:00Quinn said confusingly.
00:29:01Upon looking back, he could see Sia had decided to help out by using her spear.
00:29:13Hi, Quinn here.
00:29:14Wondering what happens next?
00:29:15If you want to jump the queue and unleash all episodes, click on the link here and install
00:29:20the Pocket FM app.
00:29:26Thanks to Sia's spear, the beast had slowed down just enough for Quinn to move out of
00:29:30the way, avoiding the vine whip.
00:29:32A second spear was thrown, and it landed in the same spot on the beast's legs.
00:29:37The effect of two spears had stacked, and now the beast was 20% slower than it usually
00:29:42would have been, and also 20% weaker.
00:29:45The students took advantage of this temporary weakness.
00:29:48Their attacks, which were bouncing off the beast, are now damaging it, and the vines
00:29:52that were troubling slowed down.
00:29:54With Vorden and Sia using their spirit spears, the beast had now lost 40% of its overall
00:29:59strength.
00:30:00It was nearly half of what it used to be.
00:30:02Quinn no longer felt the need for him or Fex to get involved when fighting the beast.
00:30:07The beast now looked heavily injured.
00:30:09It lifted its front two feet into the air and slammed them onto the ground.
00:30:13The beast repeatedly did this action as it roared and screamed.
00:30:17At the same time, the vines that were coming off from the bud on its back swung more widely.
00:30:22The beast used its long head and looked back into the forest.
00:30:26The next moment, it started running back from where it came from.
00:30:29"'Nobody should chase the beast!'
00:30:31Del shouted.
00:30:32"'Some advanced-type beasts and above have something called a berserker mode.
00:30:36Once injured to a certain point, if the beast feels like it's stuck in a corner, it will
00:30:40activate its berserker mode, sometimes increasing its strength several times.
00:30:45But then..."
00:30:46A female with light pink hair stepped in front of Quinn and bowed down to him.
00:30:51As she lifted her head, her eyes were filled with tears.
00:30:54"'Thank you.
00:30:56So much for saving my friend,' the pink-haired girl said.
00:31:00After that, she hurried off to join her teammates.
00:31:03The thanks should have made Quinn feel good, but it didn't.
00:31:06Originally, he had only gone out there not to save the students, but because he saw it
00:31:10as an opportunity to take their blood.
00:31:12He didn't deserve the praise.
00:31:15When the students had all settled down, they decided to have a minute of silence, out of
00:31:19respect for the students that had been lost.
00:31:22But they couldn't spend much time because they were in a serious situation right now.
00:31:27Leo had arrived at the camp where the distress signal had come from.
00:31:30There were no students around.
00:31:32Leo started to hunt around for clues when the sounds of large, heavy footsteps could
00:31:37be heard heading in his direction.
00:31:39A large flame of red energy seemed to be spiraling in his direction.
00:31:43This was what happened when a beast was just about to go into berserker mode.
00:31:47"'If it gets to that point, it might be a little bit inconvenient,' Leo moaned as he
00:31:52drew out his trusty sword.
00:31:54Immediately six lines of red energy came whipping out at Leo.
00:31:58Focusing his mind, he waited until all paths of the red energy crossed each other.
00:32:03In that moment, he took a single swing of his blade.
00:32:07The six vines that had come out at him had all been sliced off.
00:32:11The line of energy was thin and white, but the beast had no time to react, and it had
00:32:15completely passed through its neck.
00:32:17"'I guess you can't regenerate your head,' said Leo.
00:32:21After defeating the beast, he didn't stop for a moment, not even to extract the crystal
00:32:25core from its body.
00:32:27Right now, the students were a priority, and if they had run into similar beasts to
00:32:31the one he had just faced, he feared the worst for the students.
00:32:37They started to travel up the left side of the mountain.
00:32:40Del had made the decision and was ordering the group around, but he wasn't the one that
00:32:44stood in front of the group.
00:32:46Instead, some of the stronger groups had their front-liner.
00:32:50The scanners had been turned on.
00:32:51They would still record points and work as long as they were within a two-hundred-meter
00:32:55radius of Del.
00:32:57The group decided to stay closer, and no one was venturing far away from their team or
00:33:01far from the whole group.
00:33:03The students started to walk around to see if there were any other options to scale the
00:33:07mountain, or if they could see the shelter from the edges of the mountain.
00:33:11Del was currently just standing in the middle, looking up at the mountain to his right and
00:33:15down the sloped path from where they had come from.
00:33:19In the middle of their exploration, though, three clear and distinctive dings were suddenly
00:33:23heard.
00:33:24The students all turned to where the sound came from, as it indicated that a beast had
00:33:28been discovered by the scanner.
00:33:30But looking at the student whose scanner went off, it looked like there was nothing, even
00:33:35around him.
00:33:36What did you discover?
00:33:38Del said as he walked over to the student.
00:33:40The student pointed at a purple blade of grass on the floor.
00:33:44But to his surprise, the scanner said he wasn't holding a plant, but a beast.
00:33:49When Del snatched the scanner from the student, a dark expression appeared on his face.
00:33:54An intermediate beast, this little thing?
00:33:56How can that be possible?
00:33:59The students were not actively looking at the grass around them, but now they noticed
00:34:03that there were a few single strands of purple grass every so often from the grasses surrounding
00:34:08them.
00:34:09Is it going to rain?
00:34:10Layla asked, but Quinn was interested in the beast.
00:34:13He bent down and looked closer at the blade of grass.
00:34:16Inspect.
00:34:18Intermediate beast.
00:34:19Dumping bait beast.
00:34:20The top of the beast's head can often seem like a blade of grass.
00:34:24While most of its body remained underground.
00:34:26The beast cannot move, but when the rain comes, it will sprout from underneath.
00:34:31As a single raindrop fell on the purple shade of grass, it suddenly shook, and the ground
00:34:36started to vibrate as well.
00:34:38Guys, get away from the purple grass, Quinn shouted to his teammates.
00:34:42Let's head back down the slope.
00:34:44As Quinn said these words, a two-meter tall purple plant appeared behind him.
00:34:49Its body was as thick as a tree, and its head was as wide as a car.
00:34:53On top of its head was the strand of grass that could barely be seen on top of the giant
00:34:57plant-like beast.
00:34:59Quinn, Layla shouted as a plant dived down, but it was too late.
00:35:04The large plant had swallowed Quinn.
00:35:06Chaos erupted on the side slope of the mountain.
00:35:09However, the beasts were too fast.
00:35:11As if it was a snake, the plants opened their mouths wide and sometimes consumed more than
00:35:15one student at a time, and one of these students was Quinn.
00:35:19No, he's not dead, Peter replied.
00:35:22I can tell.
00:35:23I'll go get him, Fex said.
00:35:25There was no panic on Fex's face, just a slight smile.
00:35:29Eat me then, you piece of—
00:35:30Then he was gone, swallowed by the beast plant.
00:35:33The others stayed there watching the plant for a few seconds, hoping that Fex had some
00:35:37sort of plan.
00:35:38But after watching for a while and seeing no result, the situation couldn't be more
00:35:42obvious.
00:35:43Run!
00:35:44Vorden shouted.
00:35:45That's all we can do.
00:35:46If Peter says Quinn is safe, then we just have to believe him.
00:35:49The whole group had now been swallowed by different beet plants.
00:35:53Fex and Quinn, Layla and Vorden, and finally Peter and Sia.
00:35:57A few of the other students had been swallowed.
00:35:59A few were also knocked off the side of the cliff.
00:36:02The moment the rain stopped, all the beasts went into hibernation.
00:36:06They returned underground and turned into beautiful stalks of purple grasses once more.
00:36:11Amazingly, soil started to form over the purple grasses, and in the blink of an eye, the mountain
00:36:16returned to its original state.
00:36:19It was as if nothing had happened.
00:36:21Is it over?
00:36:22A student asked, huffing and panting.
00:36:24He felt as if he would collapse from exhaustion at any moment.
00:36:28What should we do now, and what about the others?
00:36:30Another asked.
00:36:32Dell looked around, and he could see there wasn't much blood.
00:36:35Also during his studies, he discovered that plant-type beasts weren't mostly carnivores.
00:36:40The fact that these plants probably didn't have the acid necessary to digest meat meant
00:36:45that the students were still probably alive.
00:36:47I hate to say this, but they're probably already dead, Dell lied.
00:36:51It's best if we head back down to where we were.
00:36:54If we carry on going upward, then there might be even more dangerous beasts.
00:36:58Before heading back down the slope, a student spotted another person walking up.
00:37:02As they saw who it was, a huge smile appeared on their faces.
00:37:06Sergeant Leo, the student shouted.
00:37:08There wasn't much that needed to be said, as Leo agreed that he would take them back
00:37:12to the shelter for now.
00:37:14Just as the students were about to head down the slope, Leo started to walk over to a strange
00:37:18object.
00:37:19A certain item was giving off energy, similar to that of a beast weapon.
00:37:23Do you mind telling me what it looks like?
00:37:25Leo asked Dell, who wouldn't leave his side.
00:37:28It appears to be some type of metal flask.
00:37:30Although it has some strange design on it, it looks like a beast's head with fangs.
00:37:34Maybe it's one of the items that the students dropped during the struggle, Dell answered.
00:37:40Hi Quinn here.
00:37:42Wondering what happens next?
00:37:43If you want to jump the queue and unleash all episodes, click on the link here and install
00:37:48the Pocket FM app.
00:37:54The last thing Quinn could remember was Layla shouting his name.
00:37:58When he finally reached the bottom, Quinn felt his body continuously sinking.
00:38:02If the plant swallowed me and now I'm falling, doesn't that mean I'm falling into another
00:38:06part of the mountain or underneath the planet?
00:38:09Quinn thought.
00:38:10He was strong and he had a sturdy body as a vampire.
00:38:13But what was he falling into?
00:38:15What the hell is this?
00:38:16A boy yelled as his voice echoed out.
00:38:19It can't be.
00:38:20Is that Fex's voice?
00:38:21Quinn thought.
00:38:23Bang!
00:38:24The force and Fex's weight struck Quinn's head and managed to push him through the last
00:38:28bit of strange substance.
00:38:31All he could do was brace himself for impact as he curled up into a ball.
00:38:36Covered in rubble from the walls of the cave, Quinn stood up and discovered that not a lot
00:38:40of damage was done to him.
00:38:43Just then, he could see Fex falling through the sky nearly at the same spot.
00:38:47Quinn, catch me, Fex shouted.
00:38:51Still remembering how Fex had shoved him down under here, Quinn chose not to help.
00:38:56If the fall didn't kill him, it wouldn't kill Fex.
00:38:59Stepping to the side at the last moment, Quinn allowed Fex to land headfirst into the same
00:39:05spot as him.
00:39:06They seemed to be in a large, empty cavern.
00:39:09The large holes or tunnels seemed to lead to different paths.
00:39:13Looking above them, they saw the plant hanging from the ceiling that had swallowed them whole.
00:39:18Layla and Vorden were both being slowly sucked down while their faces were pressed up against
00:39:23each other.
00:39:24This, you, this is all your fault for grabbing me, Layla shouted.
00:39:30As the two fell from the plant into the large cave, Layla used her ability to slow her down
00:39:35from falling at a fast speed.
00:39:37Quinn also used the same ability and achieved the same result, so they managed to get down
00:39:42onto the floor safely.
00:39:44In another section of the cavern, the last pairing was of Sia and Peter.
00:39:50Sia noticed that Peter's expression didn't have any trace of fear.
00:39:53She felt like she had no choice but to grab him.
00:39:56Sia was hurt, but Peter managed to break most of her fall, but as she opened her eyes and
00:40:01looked at her comrade next to her, she could see that all of his limbs were mangled and
00:40:06broken.
00:40:07"'What's that noise?'
00:40:09Syl said as he stood up from his usual crouched position.
00:40:12The screams from Layla seemed to be so loud that they even reached Syl, who would usually
00:40:17ignore most things.
00:40:19Syl placed his hand on Vorden's shoulder, who was in the chair.
00:40:22"'Swap with me,' Syl said, his grip tightening on Vorden's shoulder.
00:40:27Knowing that he had no choice, Vorden reluctantly left the seat.
00:40:30"'Why are you attacking me?'
00:40:33Syl asked.
00:40:34In another part of the cavern, two more students seemed to be stuck together, dealing with
00:40:38their problems.
00:40:40Sia was taken aback at the sight of Peter's legs all mangled.
00:40:43They were utterly broken, and it looked like part of the bone had splintered through parts
00:40:48of the skin.
00:40:49She turned her head away, unable to look at the sight any longer.
00:40:53"'Stay here, I will go look for help,' Sia said in a panic.
00:40:57"'You know, if you didn't hold on to me, the fall wouldn't have been as bad,' Peter replied
00:41:02in a calm voice.
00:41:03"'I think we should go this way,' a voice said, stood right behind her.
00:41:08"'Pio, but how?
00:41:09Your legs were all mangled just a few seconds ago!'
00:41:13Sia still didn't know Peter's ability, but she had a guess.
00:41:17His watch indicated he was a level four, and if he managed to recover from an injury like
00:41:21that, most likely his ability was a healing one or a regenerative one.
00:41:26The only thing she couldn't quite put her finger on was the healing speed.
00:41:31Not knowing where to run to, she decided to head into one of the many tunnels.
00:41:35If another student had arrived and had no relation to the person named Pio, then maybe
00:41:41she would have bolted towards Logan, but seeing that the two of them had some type of a relationship,
00:41:46she didn't want to risk it.
00:41:48The cave was dark, and it was hard for her to see, but each of the tunnels gave off a
00:41:52little reflection of light.
00:41:55There was always the chance that the small amount of light could be radiating from a
00:41:58beast, or it could be a raw crystal.
00:42:02Because of this, as Sia ran, she also had to be careful about her footing.
00:42:06"'This is a pain.
00:42:07I wish I bought some type of light with me or something,' Sia complained.
00:42:12Taking another step forward, her foot seemed to be lodged between something.
00:42:16She quickly managed to pull it, but it had greatly slowed her down.
00:42:20She scuttled along until she was behind Logan.
00:42:23Logan then tapped something on the side of his suit, which brightened up the area around
00:42:27him with green lights.
00:42:29The pieces on Logan's equipment were illuminating a small five-meter radius around them.
00:42:34"'I adjusted the scanner the school gave us to increase its radius.
00:42:38I had to power it with my beast crystals.
00:42:40I don't get any points for doing that, but to me, it was well worth it,' said Logan.
00:42:45"'That's when I discovered that there seemed to be a strange tunnel underground, but they
00:42:49didn't quite look natural, so I decided to investigate.
00:42:52I never thought anyone else would be down here, so it was a nice surprise to see you.'
00:42:57"'Do you know the way out?' Sia asked.
00:42:59Realizing from what Logan said, he should have a wide area mapped out using his scanner.
00:43:04"'No,' Logan replied.
00:43:07Although this was a lie.
00:43:08He knew they would ask to lead him out of here, but Logan had discovered something on
00:43:12his scanner that he had to check out before leaving.
00:43:16Somewhere inside the large cave, Fex and Quinn had decided to walk down one of the tunnels.
00:43:22While inside the tunnel, the connection between Peter seemed to be lost.
00:43:26It had happened ever since he went underground.
00:43:28Quinn thought that it might have something to do with the distance between the two at
00:43:32the moment, as he didn't know that Peter and the others were underground as well.
00:43:37Thinking that help would never arrive, they decided to just leave it up to fate and pick
00:43:41the tunnel with the biggest entrance.
00:43:44As they walked down the tunnel, they noticed that the walls were surrounded by thin blue
00:43:48crystals that gave off a slight glow to them.
00:43:51Not enough to light up the whole area, but one could follow the small light source quite
00:43:55easily.
00:43:56"'What are these?'
00:43:58Quinn asked, looking at the small crystals.
00:44:00"'Basic tear crystal.
00:44:02Would you like to store it in your system?'
00:44:05The shock from the message was quite immense.
00:44:07At school, they had been taught that the beast crystals could only be obtained from beasts.
00:44:12This was why the human race had been sending hunting parties to slay the beasts, even though
00:44:16there was a chance of death.
00:44:19Some crystals could be used to create powerful weapons, even more powerful than their modern
00:44:24equipment.
00:44:25But right here, crystals were hanging freely on the wall around him, and it wasn't just
00:44:30one crystal.
00:44:31There seemed to be hundreds of crystals through the tunnel they had just walked.
00:44:36Exiting the tunnel, it seemed like they'd arrived at what looked like a type of town.
00:44:41Buildings stretched out far and wide, and it was comparably as large as any one of the
00:44:46shelters they've seen before.
00:44:48Their gaze moved on towards the tallest building that stood in the center of the place.
00:44:54Although a town underneath a mountain was surprising to them, it didn't seem impossible.
00:44:59There were rumors of such shelters being built on other planets, where the temperatures could
00:45:03reach extreme levels at different times of the year.
00:45:07Underground shelters were the only answer to such uninhabitable places.
00:45:12Although the place looked abandoned and was void of people, the buildings were a different
00:45:16matter.
00:45:17The structures looked perfectly fine and hadn't deteriorated a single bit.
00:45:22The only semblance of the passage of time of abandonment was a layer of dust or rock-like
00:45:27substance from the ceiling that coated the top of everything.
00:45:31And finally, the design.
00:45:33Although the substance was strong, it wasn't as flexible and nimble as galthrium.
00:45:38This meant that the edges weren't smoothed out, giving a slight rocky look.
00:45:43They're Dalki structures," Quinn muttered.
00:45:46"'What do you want about?'
00:45:48Flex replied.
00:45:49"'These aren't Dalki structures.
00:45:51They're vampire structures.'
00:45:52"'The boy is right,' the system replied.
00:45:55'These resemble the structures that were built in my time.'
00:45:59Quinn said.
00:46:00"'Why don't we check out some of the buildings?
00:46:02Maybe there will be something inside which will tell us if it was the Dalkis who made
00:46:05this or the vampires.'
00:46:07For the first time, as they got closer to the tower, it looked like some of the buildings
00:46:12had been destroyed, as if they had taken part in a battle.
00:46:16The top had crumbled to the ground and some structures no longer existed.
00:46:20Just then, they heard a sound of growling from the sides.
00:46:24"'I guess it's time to call on some extra help,' Flex touched his ear and pulled on
00:46:28his dangling earring.
00:46:31Suddenly in the palm of his hand, the earring started to glow until eventually it started
00:46:35to change its shape, forming what looked like a cross between a bull and a bat.
00:46:41"'Ham here at your service,' the bull said excitedly, as it flew in a circle.
00:46:50"'Hi, Quinn here.
00:46:51Wondering what happens next?
00:46:53If you want to jump the queue and unleash all episodes, click on the link here and install
00:46:57the Pocket FM app.'
00:47:03It had been a while since Flex had last used Ham, and he was starting to miss his little
00:47:08companion.
00:47:09"'Finally, finally, I get to spread my wings about,' Ham cheered.
00:47:13"'Can you sense what's around us?'
00:47:14Flex asked.
00:47:15"'I think some beasts are surrounding us,' Ham replied.
00:47:18"'This place is disturbing the flow of my powers.'
00:47:21Ham then started to look around where they were.
00:47:23"'Wait, are we back home?'
00:47:25The two boys were surrounded by what looked like strange dog-like creatures.
00:47:30There were more than twenty, and possibly even more in hiding.
00:47:33The dogs had no fur, but displayed a slight tint of red on their skin.
00:47:37Their tongues were out, dangling from their mouth.
00:47:40A bit longer than regular dogs, and a little pointed.
00:47:42However, the most creepy thing about them was that they didn't have eyes.
00:47:47"'Inspect.
00:47:48Basic tier beast.
00:47:49Furry hound.
00:47:50A beast who is blind but has sensitive hearing.
00:47:53It can locate its enemy's position even with the quietest of footsteps.
00:47:57It will often use its long tongue for attacks.
00:47:59The tongue is stronger than most.'
00:48:01Now unafraid of the beasts, Quinn wanted to get a kill before Fex, just in case.
00:48:06No one had killed the beast before.
00:48:09The distance between him and the beast wasn't great, but Quinn chose to use the blood kick
00:48:14to try to finish the beast in one strike.
00:48:16"'Ten EXP gained.
00:48:18First time killing beast, furry hound.
00:48:20One hundred bonus EXP gained.
00:48:22Twenty-six forty of thirty-two hundred EXP.'
00:48:25"'Ham, above!'
00:48:26Fex shouted, and immediately, Ham flew up in the sky.
00:48:29Fex then leapt in the air and attached one of his strings to the ring around Ham's nose.
00:48:34From above, Fex was easily able to see his targets.
00:48:37As he detached himself and started swirling down, he precisely knew where to throw out
00:48:42his pieces of string.
00:48:43"'Hardern!'
00:48:44As the strings fell, power surging through him left his body and was inserted into the
00:48:49strings, now making them just as hard and sharp as a sword.
00:48:53Five of the hounds were killed in an instant.
00:48:56Finally, all the hounds in the area were defeated.
00:48:59Fex had defeated fifteen of them, while Quinn had eight.
00:49:02"'Twenty-seven twenty of thirty-two hundred EXP.'
00:49:06After defeating the dogs, Quinn decided to collect the crystals.
00:49:09"'Boss, you're not planning to head to that tower, are you?'
00:49:12Ham said as it flew up in the air.
00:49:14"'Why, what's wrong?'
00:49:15Fex said.
00:49:16"'I think there might be danger there,' Ham replied.
00:49:19While Ham and Fex were busy talking, a notification screen appeared directly in front of Quinn.
00:49:24"'Five EXP shared.'
00:49:26It was a message that he had never received before, and he found it strange that it came
00:49:30up while he had done nothing.
00:49:32Quinn would gain EXP as long as Peter had killed something and was nearby.
00:49:38Without thinking about it, Peter and Sia followed Logan around.
00:49:41While they were inside the cavern, Logan continued to walk confidently, leading the way.
00:49:46He knew exactly where he wanted to go as he picked one of the tunnels without checking
00:49:50the others.
00:49:51While traveling, their group also discovered the same type of blue crystals embedded into
00:49:56the wall.
00:49:57Naturally, Logan decided to take one for research, but he already had an idea of what it was
00:50:02just by looking at it.
00:50:04After exiting the tunnel, they too could see the magnificent sight of the strange town,
00:50:09and although it came as a surprise to the other two, Logan had already expected this.
00:50:14It was exactly what had come up on the scanner.
00:50:17The one visible place was the tower that stood in the center.
00:50:21Like a beaming torch in the middle.
00:50:22It had the most amount of crystal on the very top, illuminating it in the dark.
00:50:27However, while using his scanner from above, he could see all the building structures and
00:50:31things around it, but he was unable to see what was inside the tower.
00:50:35As they got closer to the tower, Logan transformed his robotic arms into two round blasters.
00:50:41While scanning this area earlier, I found that the beasts seemed to be concentrated
00:50:45around the tower.
00:50:46Strange right?
00:50:47Low-level beasts don't usually have a form of high intelligence.
00:50:50They hunt, sleep, and eat.
00:50:52Sometimes they do this in packs and might have a type of territory, but this seems oddly
00:50:56specific.
00:50:57In a place as large as this and with many beasts, usually, there would be several territories
00:51:02and maybe several packs.
00:51:04So why are they all centered around the tower?
00:51:06As if they were guarding it or gathering around it for some reason.
00:51:09As they continued to walk down the street, suddenly, Peter ran straight off to the side
00:51:14into one of the buildings.
00:51:15A few moments later and Peter returned, holding what looked like a dog in his hand.
00:51:21Black blood splattered over him and the dog was carried, lifeless.
00:51:24They've been following us, Peter said, and more are coming.
00:51:28It didn't take long after Peter's warning because Logan and even Sia could now see several
00:51:33dogs in view.
00:51:35Without hesitation, both Logan and Sia started to attack the dogs.
00:51:39She threw out spears, slowing the ones jumping towards her and leaping out of the way.
00:51:45As both Peter and Logan could see, there were still plenty around them.
00:51:48Still, they didn't run away but stood there at the edge of the street next to the buildings,
00:51:52growling.
00:51:53On closer inspection, it seemed like the dogs were no longer looking at them.
00:51:58Instead, they were facing the street, looking out towards the tower in front of them.
00:52:02From the street, the sounds of footsteps could be heard.
00:52:05Whatever was coming towards them was frightening the beasts even more because with each footstep,
00:52:11it looked like the beasts were pulling back slightly.
00:52:13After collecting the beast crystals from the defeated hounds, Quinn suddenly received
00:52:17a message about obtaining EXP.
00:52:20He had figured out that the EXP he just gained must have been from Peter.
00:52:24This meant one thing.
00:52:25Peter was close.
00:52:27Quinn was still unable to sense Peter's presence like he could when he was above ground.
00:52:31Quinn wanted to go searching for Peter.
00:52:335 EXP shared.
00:52:35The message just confirmed that Peter was still in combat.
00:52:39So Quinn picked a random direction and headed off.
00:52:42Slowly, Layla's eyes started to open.
00:52:44Her vision was blurry at first, but what stood out to her was the pain in the back of her head.
00:52:49Are you okay?
00:52:50Vorden asked.
00:52:51Get away from me, Layla said in a panic.
00:52:54She pushed her feet off the floor against her and once again, her head had banged into the wall.
00:53:00Vorden did as asked and slowly backed away, seeing that she was panicked.
00:53:04She had already been hurt and Vorden didn't want to cause any more pain.
00:53:08I'm sorry, Vorden said.
00:53:11Vorden, are you okay?
00:53:13Sometimes it seems like you suddenly change.
00:53:15I want to believe you when you say you don't mean to hurt me, but when I end up like this…
00:53:20As Layla spoke, her voice was shaky.
00:53:22She tried her best to hide it, but Vorden could feel the fear.
00:53:25Lately, the changes happening to Vorden had become more frequent.
00:53:29And now for the first time in a while, Syl was actively asking for a seat.
00:53:33The worst thought in his mind was the possibility of one of the others taking control of the seat.
00:53:39If they took over, he wouldn't know what to do.
00:53:41When I first met Quinn, I knew he was different, Vorden replied.
00:53:45Of course, at the time, I didn't know he was a vampire.
00:53:47I was sick of it, sick of everything, and decided if I could at least save one person,
00:53:52it would be enough for me.
00:53:53What does that have to do with me, though?
00:53:55Can't we both get along with Quinn?
00:53:57Layla asked.
00:53:58Are you jealous or something?
00:54:00Not me, Vorden mumbled, too quiet for Layla to hear.
00:54:03I haven't exactly had the best of experiences since coming here, Vorden replied.
00:54:08I think it's normal to be a bit unstable after what we have been through.
00:54:11As Vorden finished what he was saying, he took a step forward.
00:54:15Layla reacted by shuffling her knees closer to herself, curling into a ball.
00:54:19The sight of this reminded him of Syl, and in a sweet, calming voice, he did what he
00:54:24usually did without thinking about it.
00:54:26Vorden started to sing.
00:54:28It will be okay, I will make your worries go away, I am by your side, I will always
00:54:33be kind.
00:54:34As she listened to the soft, angelic voice, without realizing it, Vorden was already next
00:54:39to her once again.
00:54:40He gently lifted his hand and touched her head, bringing it down and closer to his chest.
00:54:44All his movements were so soft, as he inspected the wound.
00:54:48It was a side of Vorden she had never seen before.
00:54:50I like this, Vorden, Layla said.
00:54:53This was the first time that Logan had ever felt panic.
00:54:56Due to him having night vision in the helmet he was wearing, he could see the beast before
00:55:00it came into view.
00:55:02Basic Tier, Intermediate Tier, Advanced Tier, and right now, they were about to face something
00:55:06that was at least at King Tier level.
00:55:09Throughout history, whenever a beast that had a humanoid shape was discovered, it would
00:55:12at least be at the King Tier level or above, knowing that he would need everyone's help.
00:55:17Logan immediately changed one of his blaster's shapes, slightly allowing it to be more narrow.
00:55:22The armor shifted at a fantastic speed, and when it had finished transforming, Logan quickly
00:55:27fired three blasts into the buildings around them.
00:55:30The shots weren't energy blasts like before, instead, these were sticky light balls.
00:55:35They allowed a considerable amount of light to be shown and would easily stick onto whatever
00:55:39object they hit.
00:55:41The sticky lights had been shot in a triangle formation around them, one to the left, one
00:55:45to the right, and one slightly behind, where the King Tier beast was standing.
00:55:50This lit up the entire street.
00:55:52Now that there was a light source, Sia could see what Logan could see, and she knew straight
00:55:57away the danger of the beast.
00:55:59The beast slowly continued to walk towards the group, and by now, all of the dogs in
00:56:03the area had already scurried away.
00:56:06Although it had an outer human shape, it was a bit on the larger end.
00:56:09It stood around eight feet tall.
00:56:12Its body was twisted and strange, as if it was made of mud and rocks.
00:56:15The muscle structure of the creature was outlined with plant roots, while the rest just looked
00:56:20like a mound of mud.
00:56:21Several human skeletons could be seen half sunken in its body and half sticking out.
00:56:26Finally, on its two long arms, there were no fingers.
00:56:29Instead, they were long and sharp like a blade.
00:56:32The blades shined green in color like a hard jade.
00:56:36What Logan needed to do was get his most powerful weapon and suit on, but it would take some
00:56:40time.
00:56:41His suit started to break down into little spiders.
00:56:44They were eventually all scattered on the floor.
00:56:47From the ground up, they started to rebuild a different type of suit right in front of
00:56:50him.
00:56:51Peter took a look at the beast.
00:56:52It had now stopped walking forward and stood in the middle of the street.
00:56:56It placed one of its bladed hands in front of the other and scraped them against each
00:57:00other.
00:57:01A slight screeching sound could be heard as the beast continued this process.
00:57:05Peter said,
00:57:06It already considers us intruders.
00:57:08It will keep attacking us until we're gone, I can tell.
00:57:11With those words said, Peter threw his bag to the ground and dashed forward.
00:57:15It was at an incredible speed that Peter had not displayed until this point, and it was
00:57:20a surprise to him.
00:57:21Although Sia was frightened, she wasn't stupid.
00:57:24She too got into position, dashing towards one of the sides of the building.
00:57:28While doing so, she threw out her spirit spears.
00:57:31However, the beast stood there and allowed the spears to be lodged into the upper part
00:57:36of its body.
00:57:37When Peter was in range, the beast swung down its blade hand.
00:57:40Using all his strength, Peter swung both his fists together like a tennis racket.
00:57:45As the hands met with the side of the blade, the power was surprisingly equal.
00:57:49The blades were knocked away, but Peter hadn't budged.
00:57:52Adjusting its power, it swung its blade faster and stronger with its other hand.
00:57:57Peter was unable to do anything.
00:57:58All he could see now was the dark black ceiling above.
