(From MC Perspective)
Brown Armoured Earth Bear- Initial Class 2 Monster.
When my fist landed at its chest armour.
"Boom" a deafening sound reverberated in the area.
The Bear Monster's defense is almost perfect. My causal fist attack has no effect on the monster. It didn't even flinch.
I move backwards to make some distance to fight again.
The Bear Monster is completely dumbstruck, the monster surprised that its attack didn't even touch me, instead I'm the one who made a successful blow to the monster.
"Roar"
The Bear monster roared looking at above, there is nothing but dome structure ceiling there.
Next second,
The monster turned towards me, its eyes looked fierce. I can see it's completely pissed off. Various ideas come to mind, I need to find a weak spot to attack it as quickly as possible.
Again, I used the leg technique to evade its attacks.
I can use lightning essence, but I don't want to waste it on movement technique. It's better to use a lightning attack move.
Time progresses,
Soon, I found its weak spot using my perceptual ability.
There is no armor like defense skin in its neck region.
While Zack was battling, inside the control room, Elder Thornton leisurely sat in his seat & monitoring the data.
"It's been 10 minutes. What is he doing?" Elder Thornton grunted.
Elder Thornton has a vague idea about Zack's power.
During the Star Tower Competition, he knows Zack had a breakthrough. Otherwise it's impossible for him to succeed.
But here looking at the data on the screen, he doesn't know why he is taking so much time to kill the monster.
A quick glint flashes in Elder's eyes as he feels Zack is as mysterious as his teacher.
Inside the dome,
As I confirmed the weak spot of the monster. Next moment, I didn't hesitate to try the sword move on it.
When I reached very close to the monster, I raised my black sword and swung at its neck region.
The bear Monster's size is so huge that I had to use leg technique to leap forward to reach the spot.
"Clang" a metallic sound resonated in the area.
I got dumbstruck by the sound, next second I leaped backward to escape from Monster's paw swing.
Just as I move from the spot, a monster's huge paw tears through the air.
If I had wasted one more second behind its back, it's possible to be heavily hit by the monster.
But one good thing, I find its neck region is not as hard as other parts.
It's impossible to penetrate with a blade by the just casual swing of the sword.
Sword Divide attack is a suitable one to target its neck part.
Unlike before, my proficiency in the skill has greatly improved over the weeks.
As I activated the attack, I poured a flood of lightning essence to the black sword.
Soon, the sword lit up the purple lightning.
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
I doubt if I were to launch the sword divide from here, it's quite possible for that bear monster to escape from the brunt.
Even if it's slightly missed, lightning attack would have landed on its armour like body. Which in turn will have no effect on the monster.
Next Second, I burst out with a break necking speed by using lightning phantom technique.
"Sword Divide"
In a few breaths, I reached the back of the bewildered monster and released the gathered lightning power stored in my sword.
A thunderous blast of lightning power reaches the bear monster's neck region in a blink of an eye.
"Bang"
The neck region of the monster was torn apart by the heavy blow caused by a burst of lightning power.
"rwwa rrrrrrrrr"
While roaring with agonizing pain, the monster stumbles back and falls on the ground.
Dark blood spurted out from its neck part & the central platform splattered with blood.
Seeing the huge body of the monster flattened on the ground.
I smiled, this is a good opportunity to end its life before it makes unnecessary moves.
Next second, I reached its body in a few breaths.
Again, I made another swing to serve its gigantic head.
"Pffff"
The blade penetrated further deep inside and finally made a cut by severing the head from its body.
"Phew"
"That was easy!"
The battle ended in a few minutes just after finding its weak spot. If not for the weak spot, I would have wasted my energy & time by fighting blindly.
Just as the vitality in the Monster's body comes to an end. The sensors installed in the dome ceiling pick up the signals.
Soon another monster will appear in a few minutes.
I know the sensor will pick-up the signals. I don't want to waste my time on slicing its body & storing it in a container. Who knows what monster might pop up in the next second?
So I moved forward and dragged its gigantic body away from the central platform. I will later place it in my storage ring after dissecting its body.
"Such a colossal bear, phew!" I grunted while dragging away the monster.
Outside,
Ms. Key going towards Mr. Arthur's cabin. It's been a long time since she saw Zack on the Hansen campus.
Every time Zack visited here after Star Tower, Ms. Key wasn't able to meet him due to some other work.
But now she has some free time, she is ready to meet Zack.
"Creak" the door opens.
Ms. Key stepped inside, upon seeing her Mr. Arthur said, "What are you doing here?"
Ms. Key reveals a small smile & sits in the opposite seat.
"Zack wasn't picking up the call. I doubt you know something about it." Ms. Key said with a smile.
Mr. Arthur nodded and said, " Yeah, I just received a message from Elder Thornton."
Then looking at her he added, " Zack is taking a new blood kill test."
Ms. Key was stunned and asked, "isn't it any different from Star Tower?"
She thought what difference would it make by fighting against low level Monsters?
Shaking his head, Mr. Arthur commented, " I don't think Elder Thornton only captured Class 2 Peak Monsters. There might be Class 3 Monsters."
Ms. Key dumbfounded, "How could be?" She asked. To fight Class 3 Monsters, a Warrior needs the strength of at least Trainee Warrior.
Mr. Arthur smiled wryly, from the beginning he was clueless about Zack's actual strength. He also underestimated the competition of Star Tower.
