Chapter 967: Part 1: Hunting Mantis Monsters Chapter 967: Part 1: Hunting Mantis Monsters From MC’s Perspective: Secret Land, I was waiting for the Flesh-Cutting Mantis to appear.
But so far there was no sign of them.
I don’t want to waste any more time.
I took the black token out of the storage ring and put it in my pocket.
Then I took the black sword and held it in my right hand.
The next moment, I activated my perceptual ability.
Soon, the surrounding area becomes clear to me.
Then I spotted a huge monster in the east direction of mine.
Swish!
I immediately start dashing towards the monster.
In the blink of an eye, I got closer to the monster.
The monster is over 20 feet tall.
From the looks of it, it’s searching for its prey.
Then, both of its antennae straightened.
It found the prey next to it.
The Flesh-Cutting Mantis Monster turned towards me.
Seeing that I wasn’t surprised by its response.
Rather my heart was in turmoil for a different reason.
“How can insects grow beyond 20ft?” I asked myself.
It feels weird.
Then I decide to attack.
It’s time to test the power of purple lightning seed.
Crackle!
A purple essence covers the blade in the blink of an eye.
Lightning arcs can be seen dancing over the blade.
“Swish!” I vanished from the spot and dashed to the monster.
My target is Monster’s jointed legs.
Buzz!
The Mantis Monster reacted strongly.
It flapped its giant wings.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
The next moment, the monster disappears from the spot.
It appears in a different spot a few meters away from the previous spot.
Seeing that my eyes flickered.
The Mantis Monster is using the wind element.
When the realisation dawned on me.
My expression becomes more serious.
Buzz!
The Mantis Monster flapped its wings again.
This time it’s something different.
A powerful wind blade shot towards me.
“Lightning Phantom Technique” I immediately used the movement technique to disappear from the spot.
Moving in a zig-zag manner, I closed the gap between the monster and me within seconds.
Buzz!
The Mantis Monster is startled.
It started flapping its wings to move again.
But before it could take off.
“Sword Divide” I charged the sword by using the purple essence.
In a blink of an eye, the sword was completely charged.
Then I pointed the sword tip, targeting the hindlegs of the monster.
Boom!
A purple beam released from the tip of the sword.
The Mantis Monster felt something wrong.
It started flapping its wings fast to move away.
But this time the monster was a bit late.
The purple beam, which is more powerful because of the purple lightning seed, hits the target.
Under the attack, the hind leg of the monster blasts into pieces.
Thud!
The Mantis Monster lost its balance before dropping to the ground.
But still, it looks ferocious.
The wind element is swirling around the monster.
“Now, I know that the Monster is just a Class-7 Monster.
There is nothing to be afraid of,” I said in my heart.
But it’s special because it can control the wind element.
I decide to end the monster with this move.
I don’t know how powerful it will be.
I executed the lightning drop technique.
A powerful purple ball formed in my palm.
Looking at it I felt dred.
The ligtning element has become powerful because of the purple lightning seed.
Then I looked at the Ferocious Mantis Monster.
Which is still looking at me like it’s prey.
“Lightning Drop” I slammed the lightning drop to the ground near the monster.
When the powerful lightning ball touches the ground.
Boom!
It explodes into different purple lightning bolts.
Many of them struck the Mantis Monster.
The lightning bolts easily cracked the skin of the monster.
Then, it started to damage the flesh and organs of the monster in the blink of an eye.
Within seconds, the Mantis Monster completely charred and died in the end.
Thud!
The Monster’s lifeless body dropped to the ground.
Seeing that I sighed inwardly.
I ended the monster by using two moves.
The Class-7 Monster here is many times stronger than those Class-7 Monsters in the inner post region.
I just experienced the Mantis Monster using wind blades.
Then, I collected the thoughts before taking out the monster core.
The token shone with light for a moment before turning to normal.
I immediately understood what happened right now.
The token of mine confirmed the killing.
Then, I put the monster core in the storage ring before leaving the spot.
Next, I have to find another Mantis Monster.
Master Austin was right.
It’s just the outskirt, yet a Class-7 Monster is looking for its prey here.
I don’t know how dangerous the inner and core areas of this land are.
Shortly afterwards, I came across another Class-7 Mantis Monster.
This time, I didn’t use the Sword Moves.
I used the same “Lightning Drop” move to fry the monster in one go.
The Mantis Monster was struck by several lightning bolts, one after another.
The power of the purple lightning was too much for the monster.
A single lightning bolt paralyzed and injured the monster.
After getting successive hits, the Monster’s body broke into pieces.
Blood and body parts splattered on the ground.
My gaze swept over body parts before finding the monster’s core, which was somewhat intact.
The token in my pocket shone again.
It’s my second kill.
But I know it’s not enough.
If I want to kill more monsters.
Then, I have to go a little deeper.
But the warning of Master Austin rang in my mind.
If I came across the 8th order and above, then it would be troublesome.
After weighing the options, I chose to stay in the outer area for the time being.
Time passed, I came across 2 more monsters.
They met with the same end as well.
After 2 hours of my arrival, my kill count raised to 10.
But it was nothing compared to the actual task.
The task of the Hunting Squads is to reduce the population of the Mantis Monster to some extent.
My killing number is insignificant.
….
Meanwhile, In the innermost region, the Federation Head, Ben, receives the official confirmation letter from Star University.
After reading the letter he was shocked to the core.
“Zack Lockwood, not only succeeded in joining the Star University.
But he got into one of the top 10 Warrior Factions as well.” “Hmmm, ThunderFlame Faction.
No, wonder,” Ben is speaking to himself.
He thinks Zack’s lightning element played a role in getting him into the Thunderflame Faction.
“I know he would be fine.
But I didn’t expect him to become a member of the Warrior Factions,” He muttered to himself.
He knows some information as well.
It’s not easy to join the Warrior Factions.
Even small Factions require only talented warriors to join them.
When it comes to top factions.
It’s even more strict when it comes to selecting a new warrior.
He decides to tell the happy news to Zack’s teacher Lowell McClain.
Lowell Castle: Lowell McClain is in his study room.
The past few days have been peaceful days for him.
Because there were no emergency missions.
But he has been worried about something else.
He doesn’t know what happened to his student Zack Lockwood.
The only person who could contact the Tier-4 region Star University is the Federation Head.
The Gold Mark Warrior has such authority.
He is just a Silver Mark Warrior.
But so far the Federation Head haven’t said anything.
So he couldn’t help but feel restlessness.
Buzz!
Just as he was thinking about it.
His communication device starts buzzing.
Then he notices that the Federation Head has sent him something.
“Confirmation letter,” He muttered to himself.
Then he opened the digital letter to read it.
At first, his expression was neutral.
Then his expression changed and turned to disbelief.
“Ha…Ha…Ha…” When he finished reading the letter, joyful laughter left his mouth.
The burden pressing his heart disappeared all of a sudden.
“Zack is fine, and he has found a strong backer as well,” Lowell said to himself.
He heard of the different factions as well.
Because he had been to the Tier-4 region to accept his inheritance.
At that time, he learnt about these warriors’ factions.
It exists in all Tier-4 region forces.
Without the Federation Head needing to tell him.
He knows that Thunderflame Faction is one of the top 10 factions there.
Then suddenly, he thought of something.
“They must have seen Zack’s triple element.
The Factions only accept geniuses.
Which explains why?” He figured out the reason.
Sighs!
A soft sigh escapes from his mouth.
He is not going to worry about Zack’s safety anymore.
The triple element warrior is rare.
But the Tier-4 region is not without geniuses.
There are bloodline families and inheritance families.
Their descendants are strong.
The double-element warriors can be spotted in the Tier-4 region as well.
The only thing that is going for Zack it’s his triple element.
He thinks Zack will find how strong and competitive is Tier-4 region’s warriors are.
“I don’t know whether he would take time to meet us in future,” He sighed to himself.
Then he decides to share the news with Jonathan as well.
