“It’s because I’m one hundred percent sure that if we had stayed there, we would have been killed. We wouldn’t have even lasted ten minutes.”“Normally, there are only a few monsters at the entrance of every special location, and you want to know what they all have in common? Each and every one of them just happens to be between the realm of Low Tier 7 and Mid Tier 7. And even meeting a Mid Tier 7 beast on a normal day isn’t easy.”“But just now, when I spread out my aura, though it was heavily restricted, I was still able to locate at least five High Tier 7 plant-type beasts of unknown powers and abilities.”“And yes, you’re right. If I wanted to fight, I’m pretty sure I would be able to kill those. But can we assure ourselves that there aren’t stronger ones hiding? The fact that my mental power is limited is the reason I ran, not because I’m scared.”“With my mental power, I’m able to anticipate attacks and move before they happen, but now that they have taken that away, it feels li

While Alec’s kingdom was about to fall into turmoil, considering it would soon be attacked, Alec and his group had already entered the Amulet World, they were the ones who would be entering the Beast Forest together.And just like that, they passed through the third beast door, and in the next instant, they found themselves free-falling from the sky.It was the first time Alec would be bringing anyone into the high-rank gate of the Beast Forest, the last time he had allowed them to enter, they had still gone through the mid-rank gates.However, now he believed they had already passed the stage of entering the mid-rank gates, as the things that could bring them danger there had reduced considerably. But here, in the high-rank gates, there were many things that could still endanger their lives.And Alec believed that if they engaged in a couple of life-and-death battles, it would end up boosting their potential, all these while they have been doing nothing but cultivating hence why he w

Though it was a good thing to be exceptional, however there came a time when one became so exceptional that the only thing they created was unease, jealousy, and ill will.Well, that was exactly the situation with Alec, the human lords had created a group to discuss how they would send him a few gifts to strengthen their bonds with the new lord of the Wilderness region and to make sure that Alec would not attack them the same way he had gotten rid of the other human lord.However, the group changed rather quickly after another group of malicious lords with their own ulterior motives entered the discussion, they were able to shift the topic from giving gifts to restraining Alec from all directions.At first, many remained quiet because they did not want to attack a fellow human lord, though none of them had truly met the king of the Wilderness region, they still understood very well how the protocols in other regions worked.On the contrary, the lords of other regions might even join t

In a faraway region from the Wilderness, in the kingdom just across the great desert that separated the human region from the region of the demi-humans, the orc lords all began moving toward the main king after receiving a summons. It was the first time the king had summoned them all in a while. In less than a few minutes, they were all present in his king’s court, the throne room. However, it was far bigger than Alec’s throne room, and unlike the fancy iron thrones Alec had arranged around his hall on both sides, this place had wooden chairs placed throughout the room, with beast furs laid over them to make them more comfortable.Inside the room, the bodies of demonic beasts that had been drained from all blood and meat hung from the walls, some were complete corpses, while others were only horns, skinned bones, or skulls displayed like trophies.After arriving, all the lords under the orc king took their seats. Though he was an orc king, not all the lords under him were orcs.Ther

“However, since she was born in this realm, we were never able to fully disconnect her from it, and before she was forced away, she cast the Blood Moon Ritual on the origin realm, the Blood Moon Battle has always been a way for lords to take land from each other: kill the lord, seize their token, and have your City Heart assimilate it.”“So despite being that far away, she is still able to mess with our lives. But after that enemy left, many races that disliked us, mainly the Abyssal races leading the front, started driving humans to the edge, even their smaller worlds are trying to destroy the smaller continents of humans remaining as they believe we have the spring of immortality, we are able to summon dead soldiers back with the barrack while they can’t. Now, there are only a few human empires still left standing and protecting the human race from full annihilation.”“They are the ones who still lead the wars against the massive empires of the other races, the only way one can trul

Right before Alec stood the same old man who had recruited him into the Wilderness region, the same man who had not really given him much information about this new realm.Alec had believed that after coming to this realm, they would be placed under some kind of powerful figure, someone who would take care of them and guide them, and then before they knew it, they would be able to enter the high ranks and even learn how to become Monarch-rank mages in time.Or at the very least, he had expected to be told more about what they needed to know and what the Monarch realm truly was.But right now, apart from the fact that all he had done was trade one blood moon battlefield for another while having to take care of even more people who now saw him as their lord, Alec was basically just pushing forward and playing lord without understanding nearly seventy percent of what he was doing.Luckily for him, his system had been able to hack into the City Heart and turn it into a more understandable

Jake could see that they were getting closer, which meant he couldn’t delay any longer with what he planned to do, in his right hand was a grenade, and out of the two yetis flying through the air, he had already picked his victim.It was the yeti on the left.It was the one that was more injured. Clearly, it seemed to have been hit by the previous bombardment, as its life had reduced a little in comparison to the one on the right.Immediately, Jake stood up and threw the grenade hard, straight toward it, at the exact moment he threw the grenade into the air, Lionel cursed as he fell into a dilemma, wondering if he was supposed to tell those at the front to fall back, as he didn’t want them getting swept up in the range of the grenade.However, he stood his ground because he had already said he trusted Jake, and since Jake didn’t mention having them come back it meant he had a way of keeping them out of harm's ways .By Jake’s side was Toby, who had his sixth generation RPG resting on

The team watched as Jake flew over them, though they had started running before him, however with the energy from his Jump Jets skill propelling him further, he had left them far behind.A few members of his team, like Drax, who had been stylishly running slowly in case his leader needed help, started cursing out loud, because the same person he had been worried about had just overtaken all of them by a great margin.He looked ahead and saw that even Toby, who was supposed to be Jake’s closest confidant, seemed to be the one running the farthest ahead of everyone in the group. He couldn’t help cursing again, wondering how they could claim to be Jake’s top supporters when they were even faster than him, someone who was only just beginning to accept Jake, though Drax might think this, the true reason was so much more than that.Toby and the twins had complete faith in Jake’s ability to escape if things didn’t go his way. After all, they were the first to team up with him, and they coul

“Runnnnnn!”Lionel shouted, and he and the others didn’t even bother waiting, as at this moment they were tired of shouting to Jake on what he should do, they believed that if Jake had the time to act like a superhero, then he should have no problem handling what was before him.They were just that scared because the five yetis seemed incredibly pissed after seeing Jake gun one of them down, almost as if the one that had just died held a very high position among them.However, it wasn’t like they were abandoning Jake, it was just that even if they waited, they wouldn’t be of much help. Jake was still much faster than everyone in the team, and his cooldown should be close to reaching its limit.So they decided to go ahead, believing he would meet up with them, though that was what they told themselves they were doing, and not that they were too scared to stand their ground and face the leaping yetis behind them.“Fuck that old man, he was fast to order a retreat after I mouthed a run

Jake had to say he was surprised when he saw the life bar of the yeti after Lionel hit close to the same spot he had struck earlier, with both shots directed at the head, they caused a fatal wound.Though the bullet didn’t end up breaking through what was left of its defense to kill it, however, half of its life was gone from that shot alone.And seeing that, Jake was pretty much hell-bent on not letting it recover anytime soon, so he raised his sniper with the intention of shooting that same place again. However, it was clear that the yeti had already had enough. It dug its hand straight into the icy ground and raised part of the ground up, making it look as if a mage had cast a massive ice wall before it.That was how it looked, except in this case, it was the yeti using the ice to protect itself, as it had finally been able to see all of the other humans hiding behind the boulders not too far away.Though those with other weapon types could not shoot from that far, however those w

Now, why they were scared that this was such a bad thing was because of the possibility that they might just be heading toward the main home of all the monsters in the dungeon.However, despite knowing that, they still didn’t hesitate to move, as they tracked the same line that they believed represented the yetis’ bodies being dragged away, after about ten minutes of following the trail left behind, they were finally able to reach the location they believed the yetis had been dragged to.And that was because before them was something that looked like an ice palace, and outside it stood two yetis that seemed to be on guard.“It seems we have indeed come to the right place. Now, we will deploy a hit-and-run tactic, every time we attack, we should try to make sure we put at least one yeti in a critical condition if we aren't able to kill it,” Lionel said.“Also, after this first guerrilla tactic deployment we are about to do, I want one of the teams to be in charge of counting how many y

After returning to the cave, Lionel finally decided that it was high time they conversed and talked about the issues they had at hand, this time though, he made sure Jake sat down along with the other team leaders to hear how they planned to progress, he wanted Jake fully included in the conversation. He wasn’t treating him like some young team leader he had merely brought along to experience what it was like inside a dungeon again but as someone he could trust with his back.Even the others there didn’t seem to mind, on the contrary, they wanted to hear Jake’s ideas on the matter at hand.However, while they had that thought, Jake had something else occupying his mind entirely, his system, he was busy checking his system notifications.The first thing he checked, though, was the watch on his right hand. There, he could see that the count had jumped up to twenty-eight, before entering the dungeon, the count had been eighteen. The fact that he had been responsible for the death of at

“Your Majesty, if we do not receive reinforcements within the next three days, we may lose this battle,” one of Jerome’s Tier 1 captains spoke urgently, addressing the brooding Jerome as he sat upon his throne.The entire J-Clan Kingdom had been thrust into a state of war ever since the capital had been attacked. At present, they remained in the dark about the identity of the assailants or the kingdom from which the attackers have originated, as no kingdom insignia or flags were present on the black armoured warriors. It was a surprise assault that even King Jayden could have never foreseen, as the attackers had managed to strike without revealing their allegiance.Undoubtedly, they possessed some affiliation, yet one thing was certain: the invading army did not belong to any of the forces within the Wastelands. As none of the Wasteland kingdoms possessed nor the army or the capacity to mount such a grand-scale assault, targeting not only the main kingdom but also attempting to di

“Arrrgh! Why? How could you all allow this to happen?” The Orc chieftain’s voice reverberated through the throne room as he paced angrily, his bare chest heaving. Outside the massive window adjacent to the throne room, three immense images of grieving Orcs that had two stars revolving around them were displayed.The more he gazed at the images, the stronger his urge grew to clench his hands in his hair and pull them out in frustration.Although three Tier 2 kingdoms under their rule had been swiftly destroyed without resistance, it felt as if the battle had been between a child and an adult, the chieftain demanded an explanation for their rapid defeat.While all three kingdoms had suffered destruction, it was evident that the first to fall was indicated by the Orc image on the verge of disappearing above that particular kingdom.The loss of the Goblin kingdom, that was previously responsible for handling distasteful tasks they wished to avoid, had already stung when Jax decimated it.

As Lyra slowly advanced, the other Orc that had survived with the Orc captain was already sweating. However, when he glanced sideways, he noticed his leader making hand signals indicating that he had to make a run for it, but the orc hesitated; as he didn’t want to make himself Lyra’s next target, but the stern stare from his leader made it clear that rejecting a direct order meant certain death. Caught between the archer and his captain, he knew he had no choice.Their line of work was inherently risky, as they ventured into enemy territory without support, however, this mission had proven to be a complete failure. And it no seemed there was no hope left for their squad, with only two members remaining. With a nod, the orc signalled that he understood the plan and was prepared to proceed, this elicited a smile from the orc captain, who then gave another hand signal, counting down from three.As soon as he reached zero, the other orc swiftly got up and attempted to flee, Lyra’s

Silently, a group of ten Orcs emerged, encircling the remnants of the destroyed Goblin kingdom, and concealing their presence, their objective was to gather intelligence about the kingdom, or race that had dared to attack the Goblins kingdom, and was also capable of annihilating them before aid could arrive. These ten Orcs were elite spies dispatched by the Orc empire.While they possessed a smaller stature than the main Orc warriors, this reduction in size did not diminish their strength, in fact, they remained just as formidable as their larger counterparts, relying on their swiftness to compensate, while equipped with lighter and more nimble weaponry, they eschewed the heavy arms typically favoured by other large Orcs.“Move out!” commanded their leader, urging them to close the distance to the walls of the Goblin kingdom as the pass through boulders, their current position hindered their ability to gather information, obstructed by the towering walls constructed by the Goblins.

The news of Jax’s successful obliteration of the Goblin kingdom had rapidly spread throughout the J-Clan kingdom. King Jayden wasted no time in dispatching numerous message birds to the subordinate kings under him, officially announcing Jax’s victory over the Tier 2 Goblin kingdom at the border.While others might have been oblivious to Jax’s recent exploits, King Jayden himself couldn’t deny that he wasn’t well-informed about Jax’s movements. Though the Orc empire may still be unaware, but King Jayden knew that it wouldn’t be long before they gathered the intelligence that Jax and his army were responsible for the destruction of the Goblin kingdom. And when the news would inevitably make its way back to the Orc empire, they would then disseminate it further, therefore, Jayden wanted to ensure that he spread the news from his own kingdom before the Orc empire had the chance, starting with his children and the other general kings under his rule.–When Jessie received the messag

The Orc kingdoms near the area were not the only ones to catch wind of the situation of the wailing Goblin and realised that the Tier 2 Goblin Kingdom had been destroyed; some of the human kingdoms situated close to the borders of the Wastelands also became aware of what was happening.Meanwhile, in the capital palace of the J Clan, King Jayden gazed out of his window watching the image of the wailing goblin in distance, though his spies had yet to deliver any messages, but he felt no need to wait for their reports to understand who had initiated the attack on the Goblin kingdom, leading to its demise.After all, only Jax had sent him a letter declaring war, and he was the sole human king who had made recent movements with his army. King Jayden had initially anticipated that it would take Jax days to conquer any kingdom of his choosing, however, he had never expected Jax to completely destroy another Tier 2 kingdom. Jax had accomplished something that most of the other Tier 2 human
