foreign was quiet on the street a veteran hero was looking to get some INR after a Long Day's Work everyone in the bar was patiently waiting for the broadcast to begin the veteran was a regular of this establishment he wasn't as profitable today as others but work his work he had arrived just in time for the important event that was being broadcast around the world the Commonwealth was voting on whether or not to punish the world's most famous hero the voting was over all that was left was for it to be announced 325 votes in
favor zero votes against and zero abstained the decision was unanimous the parliament president addressed the accused code name mask the evidence is clear of your atrocities against humanity you are responsible for multiple massacres during the war and for overseeing the wrongful imprisonment and execution of over thirty thousand people in The Purge of the upper ranks of our Commonwealth at the same time you also attacked friendly people from other countries and destroyed trade relations between the two Nations as well as causing a vicious food shortage in the northern region of our Commonwealth and due to the
above crimes the Supreme Council should have sentenced you too death but as it turns out even with such crimes this hero was useful to this world so the people in power wanted to make sure this asset would continue to be available to mankind just in case another Alien Invasion were to happen they restricted him from only obtaining two roles in their society the supreme leader and the Supreme martial of the Commonwealth he would retain his current title as special hero the only one in existence but they placed on reasonable burdens upon him if their world
was ever threatened he would immediately return to the battlefield and fight for their survival the scene shifts back to the bar where conversations highlighted the stark contrast of public opinions circulating about the heroic figure known as mask on one hand you have the older individuals who understand the reality of the world they knew that if it wasn't for the special hero code name mask no one on this planet would be here to have such a conversation but because of this special Hero's actions of raising other Heroes around him up the world was a safer place
and some individuals felt that the special hero was no longer needed for the survival of mankind but it seems the ones who gained power because of this Hero's actions had Brainwashed the younger populace to see things differently the credit for survival of the world belonged to everyone on it not one man's actions alone could be seen as the reason why Humanity survived but a part of the populace knew that the Ordinary People of this world had given up hope of survival and the heroes with extraordinary powers had failed Against The Invasion but along man stood
his ground on the day that was known as hell and he alone stepped forward from that day Victorious but some in this world resented him for not moving beyond the horrors of the past for he believed that they had only experienced the first wave of an invasion and the future of mankind was still in jeopardy and the worst part he implied that some of the world's greatest heroes were in bed with the unnamable secret force that was out to destroy mankind but you can't blame these individuals they all just wanted to live in peace and
move beyond the dark times and at the same time a part of the world's populace understood and believed in this special hero they knew that Mankind's survival was only a fluke and that they had to be ready for the day when the real enemies arrived back in the halls of the Commonwealth special hero code name mask was given a choice he could retain his honor bestowed upon Him by mankind for the world was grateful for his actions at that time he should be thankful to mankind for doing this for him because after all he was
still a criminal but the hero came to his senses what was going on why was he here he knew he had died from the sneak attack from The Lord of the woven Knight was this a flashback to his previous life he had been in the same place being judged and betrayed by his companions when an unknown Force gave him a choice to become a hero this couldn't be was he being given a second second chance a system popped up informing him of his options he had completed his original Mission to rebuild humanity and form an
alliance which would have the power to defend against any existential crisis that Humanity May face he was given two branches to choose from the mission rewards he would receive would be issued depending upon his choice Branch one the hero's path a new crisis has appeared although humans cannot understand your behavior but as a hero you still choose to protect Mankind in the dark branch 2. the monster's path a new crisis has appeared stupid human beings cannot understand your behavior but saving mankind has nothing to do with Humanity and since human beings would kill the hero
then repenting in darkness is the actions of a bloodless and useless monster the system informs him that in 20 minutes he'd be randomly sent to an F level environment who would have thought that I'd be reborn again and once again stand at the crossroads of this historical turnaround this time I'll choose the Monstrous path the parliament president was growing annoyed at the Silence of the hero he understood that the special hero was an incomprehensible existence in this world that he had zero emotional or political wisdom even in such a situation he ignored the thoughts and
feelings of the people of the world he mentally admitted that the Commonwealth had actively worked towards ruining the special Hero's prestige in the eyes of society leading to the understanding that he was just a relic from the past that was best buried and forgotten he was just a burden that was holding mankind back from a better future the whole point of this trial was to Exile him in every way from society from this day forward he will become a harmless reminder of days gone by and if the hero disagreed it would prove his point that
he was a relic hell-bent on holding power for his sake alone all the members of Congress knew that he had fell into their carefully orchestrated trap the hero decided it was time to move past this and start his new life I have an objection the crowd which only a second ago was so quiet you could hear a pin drop burst out in conversation the president was ready for this the people watching at home knew this was going to be the outcome no way would that psychopath give up power and allow the rest of us to
move on the world has sacrificed so much for him it was time they hung him for his crimes the world watched as their savior gave up his title of special hero everyone was shocked this is not what he was supposed to do what did you say I said I give up my title of being a special hero the hero was tired of protecting Mankind and being blamed for all his efforts the president of the parliament raged on but none of it really mattered to the hero as he walked away he explained that he had no
problem with their decision he was more relaxed than he had ever been this was not in the president's calculations as the silent hero that supported mankind he was supposed to just bend his knee and accept this punishment he was worried that the hero would become their greatest enemy he had to act fast he had a plan to use the attention of the world to force the hero to relinquish his power since the hero had relinquished his title that power belonged to the world back in the bar the viewers were intrigued by the sudden change of
events the ones that understood what was going on explained the situation to the others they wonder how this was even possible as the hero was the highest rank in the world how could the president Force someone who was four ranks higher than his current rank of nine to do anything against their will no one on this planet was above the 10th rank and no one believed that would ever change even in the future the president explained that the mask was where he was because the people of this world poured their resources into him no way
could he just walk away with the heart and soul of the world that would be a disgrace to everyone alive so in order for him to leave he would need to give up the power that didn't belong to him power radiated from the savior's body putting everyone around the world on edge but surprisingly the hero agreed to give it all up he raised his arm to the air and released his energy forcing everyone in the room to bow down to it the ones not strong enough to withstand such a power begged for help it took
all of the energy of the rank 9 president to keep from being forced down by such a powerful force if the people in charge of this world wanted his power then he would give it all back to them the power radiated from his hand shot straight into the air burst into the ceiling and out into the Open Sky people who wasn't watching the broadcast was shocked by what they saw some believed another king-class monster had descended to this planet the Savior was so powerful that the beam of energy shot to the heavens lightning sparked across
the whole city there was a high chance that majority of parliament would perish before all of his power had been depleted slowly the blue beam began to flicker out becoming a trickle of its once great force the president exerted all of his energy to endure the 10 minutes it took for the excruciating power to cease but now he was the strongest person in the room the once great hero was now nothing more than an ordinary human all the fear he once felt had evaporated and a malicious smile crossed his lips the hero had no problem
with his actions his power did not Define him he turned around and continued his journey towards his new life he flipped his mask over his shoulder as he went the president thought to himself that the day would soon come that the hero would no longer walk this Earth the hero disappeared from sight as he passed through the doors of the Parliament building the president was in shock there was no way he could teleport after releasing all of his power random teleportation has been activated choose a level 4 secret Realm mother spider hatchling's nest the portal
casts a blue hue on the walls of the secret room the steel cutting Squad stepped through as their boss explained their goal for today all of their members were above level 2. meaning they would have no problem easily dispatching the trash mobs the final boss was level 3 together they would be able to take it down the leader wondered if any of his members were afraid of spiders as he looked towards the two women in his group they were not pleased with him looking down on them the other members were ready to get underway and
wanted their Captain to stop messing around the sooner they got out of here the sooner they would find out the outcome of the trial for the great hero code name mask they were taking advantage of the situation as this secret realm was only available because everyone was intrigued by what was happening in the real world they had played around enough it was time to get serious we must work together and raid the whole secret realm as quickly as possible yes captain they all looked back as someone stepped through the portal a hero on a New
Journey in life stepped forward the group knew there was something off about this individual who would enter a secret realm without any equipment our protagonist was experiencing things that he hadn't experienced in a lifetime he had forgotten what it was like to enter a low-level secret Realm the feeling of nostalgia radiated from him he hadn't been to this place since he had originally awakened all those years ago he was used to secret Realms on a whole nother level where if he didn't defeat them in time it would transform into a realm where Everlasting demons would
appear these places were so dangerous normal monsters were afraid to enter them if you were lucky to survive long enough for the boss to appear you would be facing an unnameable demon god the system had decided to send him here after he relinquished all his power and deleveled back to level one human status normal alignment none monster status undecided monster component none he wasn't sure if this Choice was wise but he knew that in his last life the path of the hero was a waste of time he wasn't sure if it was okay for him
to be looking forward to becoming a cold-blooded monster the group leader approached him being as gentle as he possibly could inquiring why he was weaponless but the protagonist explained that his fist was the only weapon he needed the captain patted him on the arm believing him to be a martial artist but he wasn't totally persuaded by this he wanted to know what level of professional he was for someone to come to a secret realm looking so confident this individual had to be at the same level as me the captain was worried that if that were
the case he would take a significant portion of their loot but they were all shocked when the words level one left the lips of the young man standing before them you can't be joking little brother being here as a level one professional can only mean your death the captain was relieved on the inside he was scared they were going to lose a lot of money today the protagonist slipped out of the grip of the captain saying aloud that he was here to crush monsters the people around him felt sorry for the young man there was
no way he would even be able to beat their level 2 healer let alone Crush monsters thinking of his safety they advised him to stay in this room when they were done with the secret realm he would be able to leave here safely he tried to reassure them that he wouldn't bring any trouble to them the leader warned him that since he was the one here looking for trouble that he shouldn't expect them to save his life when danger met him face to face as they headed out their youngest female glanced back not pleased with
how her group had handled this interaction the group battled their way to the spider cave the older females shot deadly Fireballs at the spiders while the Archer was a crack shot capable of covering the back of his captain from afar the Lancer and the captain fought at close combat as if they had been fighting together for years as the former hero stood back and watched them work the group's healer approached and apologized for the actions of her group she really wanted this stranger to know that the captain was a good guy and he was only
looking out for his best interest she wanted to make sure he understood that if he wasn't careful this place would consume him he explained that things were so much different nowadays than back when he raided people were so much more Progressive and cautious he guessed the lessons that were learned in Blood by his generation had passed down to the younger generation she was surprised that he talked just like those uppity people in the Commonwealth but she agreed with him that the policies that the hero mask had put into place was for the betterment of all
mankind his actions had strengthened the training of the professionals and had fostered a cooperation among them that was for all of their betterment the death rate had really plummeted because of the hero's action which allowed the population of professionals to expand among the human race the young healer had got lost in their conversation and had forgotten to introduce herself her name was Yen sisi and she was a level 2 healer nice to meet you I'm shoutshiel a level one professional I have yet to select my career path she was shocked by his admission he explained
that he was still thinking it over in his past life he was the one who created all of the paths that human beings followed but all of his choices going forward was still a mystery she went over his possibilities out loud she knew most definitely with his physique that he would never be cut out for close range DPS she believed he should focus in the area of spellcasting when he gave her an unnerving glare she realized that maybe she was being a little too talkative for a stranger he grabbed her by her arm moving her
out of the incoming path of a monster attack her teammates would never make it there in time so shall rip the leg off of the spider and used it to stab it through the eye all in one fluid motion the spider collapsed to the ground as the Healer Yen held on to his body the others were shocked at what a martial artist was capable of but the Lancer explained he had never seen a martial artist do such things he just crushed the spider's most vulnerable point and in one fluid motion pushed it through its eye
socket only someone who clearly understood a monster structure and had a great understanding of their own body was capable of that the danger has passed it's okay for you to let me go she was totally embarrassed as she backed away from him he was relieved to find out that choosing the monster's path was very similar to the hero's path that one kill had gained him 500 experience points he knew now he would be able to level up easily by killing monsters in his past life this was the reason why he became such a high-level professional
with the fighting experience he gained in his last life he would be able to get there even faster this time the captain apologized for misjudging Xiao he extended his gratitude for saving Ian's life and offered him an equal cut of their spoils upon completion of their current mission Xiao explained there was no need for such a gesture it was only right to help each other out in the secret realms the captain news shall is putting him in his place on purpose as the group moved forward everyone fought together to complete the mission in no time
they had reached the boss and their plan would remain the same the captain would be the tank the Mage had the responsibility of making sure to burn away the spiderwebs throughout the battle the rest would be basic damage dealers the group had progressed so fast that if they were lucky they would make it in time for the end of the trial the Lancer could care less about the end he knew the outcome that hypocrite of a mask would be found guilty I'm just curious what he looks like no one had any idea who the mask
truly was the group continued to chit chat about the mask until they upset you in the Healer she was totally in the mass corner and knew intimately the incident that everyone called the massacre of the Mask she knew the mask had done the best he could in the circumstances he was put in the Lancer teased her are you sure you're not one of those paid actors that you see on the internet their Captain insisted that they were embarrassing themselves in front of company they all turned towards the challenge at hand the environment was covered in
spiderwebs some of the group was more interested in valuable Goods While others were interested in the treasure chest that was left behind prepare yourself here comes the boss the spider let out a screech of anger as the captain rushed in to gain aggro their blows clashed as the other damage dealers searched for openings Xiao was surprised at how unintelligent the boss at this level was with any luck he would end this soon the Mage kept the spider webs under control while the Archer guarded her the Healer was keeping the captain alive with all she had
the boss stood no chance against their teamwork dying in short order everyone will get their equal cut of the rewards minus little brother zhao's cut Xiao didn't understand why they kept referring to this place as a level 3 secret realm when his system clearly stated it was a level 4 secret Realm the group realized that something was off the treasure chest had not appeared a mysterious figure approached them from the darkest corner of the cavern a girl wearing a school uniform her head was covered in an astronaut's helmet the real boss had shown her face
she gave off no signs of being worth any of their time so the Lancer decided to end this quickly the possessed astronaut girl stumbled forward her toes gripping the ground as she ran the Lancer readied himself no one believed that such a direct attack would land as soon as she was in range he stabbed her through her pink fluids spread all over the place his Lance pierced through to the other side everyone was impressed by the sight and with that he went in for a killing blow but to his surprise spider webs emerged from the
hole he left in her torso they shot out binding his arms as he struggled to free himself without batting her eyes she snapped his arms there was no way they would be able to cut that silk the captain ordered the Mage to burn it away and the Archer spent it forward to rescue his teammate from the flames but as he got closer the Flames raged out of control it was as if the boss was stoking the flames as the Flames cleared all their eyes met a horrifying sight the astronaut girl had gone from two legs
to an eight-legged freak Xiao was the only one among them were shock wasn't the prominent feature on their face the Lancer turned desperately trying to escape but he was severely impeded by the silk wrapped around his body with barely any effort the eight-legged freak stuck her pretty foot through his chest the Lancer stood there looking down at the foot knowing his life was over the Archer was infuriated but Xiao grabbed his forearm to calm him down don't act rashly if you go after such a beast you will be next as the Archer turned to give
Shao a piece of his mind his captain explained the wisdom and the words that was just told to him they had pushed so fast towards the boss that they had a full three hours before they could Escape the new plan was to make a tactical retreat they would fight the boss while slowly making their way back to the entrance then they would Escape immediately once the portal opened the eight-legged freak decided to go on the offensive this time the captain was her Target her silk shot from her exposed wound and wrapped around his forearm the
Archer instantly released a volley of arrows but in a second she had him completely wrapped up and defenseless the captive Captain screamed his name as the Archer was sucked towards the freak as he got closer teeth emerged and the hole grew wider it was a horrible sight the monster ate his head off and dropped the body to the ground this sent the captain into a rage he charged up and took a swing towards the freak of a boss she countered his blow with nothing more than one of her legs the captain was confused there was
no way a level 4 monster was able to counter a level 3 swordsman's attack as the spider reeled him in the main protagonist Xiao came towards the captain offering his help give me your sword the only way to live now is if I cut off your arm if you want to live give me your sword it only took the captain a split second to accept this decision he flung his sword up to Xiao who came down with a strike that removed the captain's arm up to the Elbow the pain was excruciating but he would live
the two retreated to safety as the Healer Yen rushed in to seal the wound the Mage chose this time to lose her mind she ran away in a panic screaming I don't want to die in a place like this Yen asked Xiao why wasn't he running away also run you can't run away she let her go on purpose The Thrill of the chase was like candy to a boss like that who was best known as God chosen God chosen feed on the negative emotions of humans Delicacies such as fear jealousy resentment were treats like no
other to such a boss Yen was confused by the words coming out of xiao's mouth God chosen were monsters chosen by the outer gods of the Void if a monster was chosen they would gain terrifying growth speed and Power and have an appearance that was bizarre to the eyes of a human God chosen were nothing special to shout he had killed them countless times heck the first ever secret realm he entered when he had little to no power was assigned a god-chosen monster for some reason fate had bad taste when it came to him the
eighth-legged freak began to release a purple miasma into the air the Healer casts a poison repelling spell on the group the Mage was instantly taken over by the miasma Yen realized that the Purple Haze was spiritual energy not poisonous gas this was the perfect opportunity for Xiao now that everyone was unconscious he could reveal his true power the boss freak was surprised when something that was supposed to be her food appeared out of nowhere next to her while he had forfeited all his power his spirit and soul were still level 14. the boss freaks spiritual
presence came nowhere near his the pink miasma triggered the system to give Xiao a new ability he let the spider know that thanks to her attack knocking out the normal humans he was able to use his ability and fight her on even terms a mere God chosen being should feel proud to witness his existence as the freak attempted to soak in her spiritual presence the monster once known as the special hero blasted towards the freak slicing off one of her legs as he went other than being long this really is a good leg she attempted
to capture him by sending silk in all directions but such a simple move didn't have a chance of landing on him shall realized that maybe his expectations for this God chosen was too high she was only level four after all but that wasn't his problem so he continued his attack he sprinted down the wall and as he reached her he laid a barrage upon her that removed all of her legs except for one as he tossed all her legs away he decided it was time to finish this it looks like you only have one leg
left so let's get this over with as she attempted to hobble away he decided to relieve her of that luxury with no legs at her disposal she did her best to crawl away her hand stopped in mid-motion as the monster stepped in front of her when you were playing with humans you didn't think it would be your turn so soon did you he put his foot to her head wrapping up this pathetic fight level 4 secret Realm mother spider hatcherness raid complete Mission reward issue spider's foot should be a spider's leg survivors will be automatically
transported out of the secret room people went about their normal hustle and bustle the kind you would expect from a large Metropolitan City Yen walked around in a stupor it had been over two hours since she had been teleported out of that hell trap of a secret Realm their Captain had been rushed to the hospital her and the Mage were able to leave on their own volition she had no idea if Xiao had made it out alive but as soon as she thought it he was standing there right in front of her after his victory
Xiao had been teleported to today's City he currently had a major problem he was so powerful in his last life that money wasn't something he dealt with meaning he was flat broke at the moment he was looking to rent a room but he couldn't afford their cheapest unit there was a lot of things about society that he just didn't understand he was going to have a hard time surviving on his own in this Society lucky for him he had made a good impression on a particular healer he wasn't used to his name being called but
he looked up eventually the Healer from the secret room was there she didn't appreciate him not knowing her name and calling her that healer she explained her name to him so that he would never forget it above all else she was relieved that he was still alive the best thing about her was that she was quick on the uptake she owed him her life so he would be staying with her from now on she explained the history of her city as they walked to her home it only dated Back 40 years it was created after
the disaster struck the rapid development and urbanization of the original City had transformed it into an Urban Village they reached her home around the time she got done with her story she explained that he wouldn't have to worry about her inconveniencing him that he would have his own separate room the medal next to her entryway caught zhao's eye her father had received it after the great disaster he was a hero and a soldier he was much stronger than a simple level 2 professional like herself he was a level five melee professional who had participated in
many battles he loved telling stories about the time he spent fighting side by side with the mask they were so close not only did they camp together but they also ate food from the same pot she didn't know whether the stories were true or not the stories had been recited in her family since she was a little girl she knew they were most likely lies her father was a drunker who liked to dabble in the art of wordplay none of that sounded like the mask the world knew she explained to Xiao her father had passed
away he suffered greatly from the time he spent in the war while his body was healed his soul would never bounce back and he passed away shortly after being discharged from the Army Xiao inquired about her mother and she explained her mother had passed after giving birth to her sister don't you dare give me such an expression all that is in my past and can't you see I'm living well she showed him around her house I'll get you a quilt but things like underwear and pajamas you're going to have to provide for yourself a place
like this was not what he was expecting as soon as he started earning money he would make sure to pay her rent a little girl in a wheelchair rolled out she was not pleased with having an intruder in her home her sister explained the situation and told her he will be staying with them from now on oh big sister you're so kind to bring people you just met to our humble abode she turned around and headed back inside without another word don't worry she'll get used to you eventually she's just not too happy at the
moment a person she looks up to is being judged unfairly in the public side today Michelle was shocked that he had so many fans he really believed the whole world was against him Yen CC's little sister scanned through the trash that the internet was spouting about her hero he's just a selfish bastard who tossed away all our precious resources there's still a lot of dangerous things out there that was his responsibility to protect us from and he just chose to walk away no one should believe that he just gave away his power look how he
teleported away at the end Yan's little sister was furious at the things she read it's like people from this world are blind how could they lie to themselves about the reality of the world they lived in The Mask wasn't the one relying on anyone mankind should be thanking him for what he did for them she went to work fighting the warriors on the other side of her keyboard she had no time to be bothered by her sister dinner or her sister's guests the only person I'd come out there for has just been shunned by a
civilization the two of them sat down for a simple dinner prepared by Yin he was used to eating anything he could get his hands on so this was most definitely a delicacy back then he truly was a real hero he sacrificed everything for the safety of mankind the news continued to slander the reality of things that happen the world was hell-bent on not being indebted to a single man without the Earth the Sun rotates just the same without mask human beings can also move forward in glory is the mask really running away from his crimes
Xiao what do you think don't rush you can eat as much as you like everyone believes him to be a criminal so I guess he's just that a criminal Yen never backed down from an opportunity to stand up for the mask she was upset that he was being cold towards a great person someone was shouting obscenities from the front of their house she explained that kaijiang investment had been harassing her family they were threatening to burn the house down with them inside she rushed outside to confront them so we finally get to see you face
to face you know you're a hard person to track down Yen had never misled them she was always truthful and to the point she had no interest in selling her family's home they knew too much about her personal situation and wasted no time jumping on her about the tragedy that befell her and her team earlier that day one of The Intruders was a professional capable of playing mind games with his prey they were giving her five days before they began their harassment upon her family they had also dropped her offer from 3 million to one
hundred thousand federal dollars she would never sell her house so it really didn't matter they were relying on information that they had attained illegally they knew she needed money to continue to get her little sister's treatment and currently her bank account only possessed thirty thousand dollars Xiao had had enough of this and decided to make his presence known the douchebag Intruder Rushton to greet who he believed to be her boyfriend as he introduced himself Yen screened for him not to shake the guy's hand that he was a mage who specialized in mental attacks but it
was too late shall have fell into the Trap the douchebag rushed and expecting to shatter zhao's mental state he wouldn't be too rough on the boyfriend he would just make him take a nap for a few months but he realized something wasn't right he should have made it there by now as he stopped and checked his surroundings he realized that he was in trouble he needed to escape this place immediately but it was too late a giant wave crashed down smashing him he was completely submerged in zhao's mental energy something dark and evil loomed in
the depth of this Endless Ocean monster turns out he was the one who would not be waking up anytime soon Yen can't understand what tactics the douchebag was trying to use blackmail that's exactly what this had to be the smarter of the two subordinates held back his friend he explained what was very obvious do you believe you could take out someone who just took out our leader do you believe you're on our leaders level they realized they were in a bad place and needed to retreat immediately the message is clear Yin we didn't expect you
to be able to find someone to protect you so quickly but let this be a warning to you if you dare attack our people things won't go so easy next time did you put him in a coma shell yes and no he forced his way into my mental world this is simply just the consequences of his action how long have you been putting up with the harassment not long after my father died about four years ago at the time we were financially stable so they chose to use scare tactics whenever I wasn't around they would
beat on the door and threatened my little sister fortunately I became a level 2 healer and joined the Captain's Team that alone kept them at Bay all this time they didn't even wait one day before trying to attack us again why did the government not help you they were set up to give preferential treatment to families of the soldiers who fought in the Great War Xiao realized that even though he had said these practices in place they obviously weren't working the simple answer to that is money why would they help us when it would be
more beneficial to help the wealthy people over there Yen insisted that he was her guest and he shouldn't be helping her wash the dishes he explained that this was the least he could do to show his gratitude if she was going to house him and feed him he would do as much as he could to relieve her burdens she explained that her debts to him continued to grow not only did he save her life but he protected her home from dangerous individuals what are your plans moving forward are you going to join a new team
I'm hoping that the captain wakes up if not I won't have any choice but to find a new reliable team the reality of what goes on in secret Realms aren't very good not only do parties compete to gain as much as they can from each secret Realm but there are rumors about parties who backstab their individual members The Mask can only do so much for us normal people even with his rule of people being forbidden to kill each other in the secret realms nothing really stopped it from taking place she let him know that if
she did find a party he would be the first one she recommended it to Xiao knew that no one would stand by a monster in battle and that the path he had chosen would be a solitary one task Knight dweller level 4 secret Realm task description this is not a challenging task but unexpected benefits May Come if you raid this secret Realm test requirements clear the secret realm alone remaining preparation time 12 hours a portal ripped open inside of a gothic church xiaochio stepped in ready to take care of business thanks to the system he
was able to enter a dungeon whenever he wanted from wherever he wanted this allowed him to skip the official channels he dated the dungeon to be middle-era European he stopped in front of the two gargles and knew immediately that they were his enemies they ripped themselves from their perch ready to do battle Scarlet goggles level 3. when there are no enemies they just look like statues but when people pass by they will become a Ferocious Beast quality Stone surface gives them high defense and also makes their fangs more dangerous Stone goggles were a fearsome enemy
they had a strong body that wasn't weak to Magic neither physical nor magical attacks did much to them the slash Iron team would have been wiped out immediately against such a force but Xiao was ready for this battle Such a Pity you guys have to encounter me without even trying he held both their heads in the palm of his hands such enemies were a waste of his time all the stained glass windows in the building lit up and the army of goggles appeared bring it the Army ripped themselves free of their bindings and took to
the air Xiao decided to fight on their terms he leaped in the air punching kicking and slashing As Time passed the ground became littered with boulders until there was only one left he held it by its wings you seemed scared I do believe Stone isn't supposed to have feelings and he ripped it apart as if it was a piece of paper the boss made his appearance leader Luck Stone statue level four compared to the Gargoyles this one was different a large amount of time was spent to create it one could tell it was an extinguished
statue do you dare to crush it with your hands what use does the demon have with the body and looks of a human such a look only makes me want to kill you even more die you abomination a group of four professionals knocked their way into the gothic Cathedral but all they found was Rubble this makes no sense this dungeon just appeared 12 hours ago we are most definitely the first team to enter our contact in the Inspection Bureau made sure of that somewhat unreasonably strong was here before we came look at this fragment it's
split as if someone ripped it with their bare hands how's that even possible look over there the professional pointed towards a giant pillar in the gothic church the boss was on display pierced through the chest with his own spear the boss at the secret realm Inspection Bureau was Furious no one had any clue what was going on they had reports coming in from the field that the dungeons were being cleared before anyone had the chance to get to them at best there was someone neglecting their duties but the worst case scenario was that someone out
there had an inside man and the secret realm Inspection Bureau they had to find out how this team of individuals were evading the monitoring of their division on the surface an amateur could miscue this for a good thing but the reality was this had the chance to go horribly wrong while on the surface it seemed that the Federation was safer with this individual out there but what if this person who is unregistered started ambushing the Expedition teams as they showed up to clear the dungeons the younger generation couldn't understand the horrors of secret Realms before
the Inspection Bureau was established the number one cause to death wasn't monsters greed and Desperation ran rampant and teams had to do their best to watch out for their fellow humans Above All Else it was their responsibility to make sure the world didn't fall back into such a barbaric practice the first reported infiltration was the level 4 gargoyle's secret Realm and going by the evidence at hand the Intruder is level four but at most level five the evidence pointed to it being a single individual the destruction of all the remains aligned with this Theory this
explained why there was so much waste being left behind a single individual had no way to process the amount of materials and spoils from so many dungeons so this will be where they focus their attention they would catch this culprit by following the money the team was ordered to keep a close eye on the market and to watch for patterns that align with the spoils that came from the seven secret Realms that had been hit and they were to report it immediately this tactic most likely wasn't going to work Xiao really didn't have much use
for the money he didn't even mind that he was getting scammed on the material sales his goal was primarily to get stronger but for the time being he had enough money to keep him from being a burden to UNCC her voice came to his ears as soon as he thought of her he spotted her trying to sell a sword to a shady businessman she simply wasn't a very good salesman she explained that the blade had history and had slain many monsters but the salesman used that to his advantage he explained that that was the reason
why he couldn't pay much for it with all the scratches on the blade it would break after a few uses its only worth was in scrap how can the relicor father Left Behind be considered scrap he raised the price to 3500 while implying it was only because she was looking so pitiful the sword's name was flying Crow her sister's medical expenses came first meaning she had to let the sword go this was going to be a big payday for the Shady businessman he knew an amateur when he saw one the sword she was holding was
forged of Ember iron the material was really rare and in turn really valuable he would be able to sell it for at least ten thousand Xiao stepped in as the businessman was rushing her to sell the NCC was surprised to see Xiao but it made sense that he was here making trades of his own shoutsho's system informed him that the equipment was a level 5 professional Long Blade it was in the category of special equipment equipment description although at face value it is only an old Long Blade it contains some rare special metal materials which
few people knew was stained with the blood of a demon god the question is is that a blessing or a curse Yen would you sell me this blade sell it to you the salesman was Furious he could sense this precious opportunity slipping away from him shout paid her right away the salesman knew it was over the two sit on a bench holding their new items Yen couldn't take so much from the man who she owed her life Xiao insisted that she had already paid him back for saving her life and that he at least owed
her money for allowing him to stay with her and cooking him such delicious meals he insisted she take the money for accommodation expenses at the very least in reality he owed her way more money for the blade it wasn't as simple as she believed it to be he wouldn't be able to inform her of the reasons but the blade was worth way more than a mere ten thousand this shocked her for this blade was just a relic of the past but she expected he had many secrets she was already forming a small list how he
had exited the spider dungeon before any of her team had even woke up how he had come by so much money in such a short span of time but she wasn't the type of person that Pride at other people's secrets she asked him to be kind to find Crow it was the last thing the siblings had to tie them to their father flying Crow like a crow that comes and goes freely hiding in the dark the name was spot on yet normally kept her emotions to herself but she felt it was her responsibility to inform
him of flying Crow's history you do know of the Great Ghost incident it happened here in day City yes level 10 monster emerged from a secret realm and went on a rampage through the city neither the army or professional Heroes were able to stand in the presence of such a monster anyone around who could fight took up arms it was because of their sacrifice that we ordinary people were able to escape my father was also killed in that incident the only thing left behind of him was his blade flying Crow the Great Ghost emitted a
horrible radiation it covered nearly half the city and turned everything it touched green from the clouds in the sky down to the simple building materials that made up the foundation of the city Ordinary People instantly became a pool of Flesh and Blood and anyone that was near the incident will die eventually from radiation poisoning you can say chenlu was one of the lucky ones she was touched by the radiation and lost the use of her legs but she survived others weren't so fortunate she was so talented with the sword her Talent was so great that
it allowed her to beat Advanced swordsmans at her school with nothing more than a wooden Practice Sword her future was bright we all believed one day she would become even stronger than our father but now we have to pay high level professionals to keep the radiation from spreading this is the reason why I chose not to be a close combat specialist becoming a Healer gave me a higher survival rate I have to be here for my sister I can't carelessly risk my life they had me transferred from the front line to take care of the
Great Ghost incident I wiped it out with one punch but the ghost had ran rampant in day City for over 10 hours I didn't realize how much Havoc that monster had reeked on the lives of the ordinary people involved in that incident that's why I hate monsters so much I was sure that after the Great Ghost incident that mask had arranged for the federal government to allocate a large amount of funds to ensure the safety of the lives of every disaster victim your sister should have been reimbursed for her treatments was there such a thing
all this time let's head home I feel as if a boulder has fallen off my shoulders if you thought my cooking was good I'll show you my real culinary skills tonight as they left shall pass by two members of the Bureau of inspection during investigation work to unravel the trail that would lead them to him if they only knew how close they were to the culprit back at home chiendo was taking a break from her battle with the keyboard Warriors when Intruders began beating on her family's door she knew it was the people from kaijiani
Investment Company wasn't a coward even without her legs she would protect her family's home she equipped herself and headed to battle as she reached the front gate the enemies forced their way in they were happy someone was around even if it was the little chianlu attacked to defend her family's honor but Kane crashing to the ground having Spirit alone just wasn't enough she laid on the ground looking up defiantly the leader mocked her condition he sent his men to search I mean trash the house we were planning to teach Xiao a lesson he wouldn't soon
forget their search didn't bear any fruit the leader wanted to bring the back with them but his men insisted that it was not a good idea kidnapping was a serious crime so instead they decided to take a different route he ordered one of his men to stay behind with the truck and he was to back it in when the other two arrived this way it would only be a minor accident caused by the loss of control of the truck and it was too bad that the truck was filled with gifts collected from the residential area's
garbage bins it was definitely important for them to remain law-abiding citizens the two arrived homes soaked a thunderstorm had broken out halfway through their Journey hurry we're almost there Yen was shocked to see her sister chenlu laid out on the ground the gates had been ripped from their home as they helped her into her chair as she explained what happened one day those bastards are going to get what's coming to them Xiao can you take her inside I'll go and work on the gates she turned heading towards the demolished gate Xiao turned around to see
a garbage truck had destroyed the entryway and was dumping all its garbage at the feet of yen she was barely holding herself in check oh I did realize this was Mrs Yan's house how could I have mistaken this place for the garbage dump well at least it's raining you can stand there and get clean without having to track that mess back into your home expect many more gifts from the kaijian company wanted to go to her sister's side but Xiao explained that would only make things worse give her a minute to compose herself Yen marched
past them there was an ominous blue haze emitting from her body Xiao and xianlu stood out in the rain can you tell me why it's like this tell me is there Justice in this world in my experience there never was what about in the future don't count on it there has to be at least fairness note that lie is just fabricated from Injustice even the rain that falls on everyone is unequal Xiao reached out towards her sword it falls on those suffering as well as the unrighteous this world is unjust so rain that falls in
an unjust world is also unjust was devastated by the reality that laid before her you do know in my eyes your family's matters are minor I have no interest in the trouble and injustices that you too are experiencing I should be focusing my energy on more important things but it seems trouble always comes for me anyway what a pain in my ass Mr Xiao why are you leaving I have trash to take out are you crazy that company is the equivalent of the Yakuza their boss is said to be at least level five and that's
not taking into account the countless level three and four members they have you just said our family's troubles online I don't want you to get hurt you don't have to take off Family struggles upon your shoulders yeah this is a real hassle a total waste of time however there's only one cure for these types of problems and it most definitely involves cracking skulls why am I so fond of using violence to eliminate my troubles the storm continued to batter the city of day forcing the citizens to take shelter the streets were deserted just the way
an organization of bullies liked it shall stepped into the frame as two well-dressed losers were leaving their headquarters he stared up at the large headquarters and realized he had his work cut out for him he entered the building's sword in hand and was instantly noticed by security it had been some time since they had a little fun with troublemakers they approached him with smiles on their face do you know where you are how dare you carry a weapon in this establishment Shaw ignored them if they mind their own business he'd continued to mine his as
they proceeded to stop him he continued his stride not missing a Beat but behind him two puddles filled with chunks fell to the floor Mission blood sacrificial blade description this blade that has tasted lots of Blood on the battlefield has once again been awakened or perhaps what was awakened was the blood of the demon god Mission requirements use fine Crow to eliminate all hostile beings Mission reward flying Crow will use the blood to undergo an upgrade backup security wielding katanas made their way out to greet him he's hostile everyone be careful the group encircled him
increasing their advantage two of the hotheads decided to attack first they dashed in increasing their momentum as they struck neither of their heads were still attached as their momentum took them past shell the third forced his Aura into his blade this caused Xiao to look at him with Fury in his eyes the next instance shall remove that arm and intentionally stuck his blade in the man's side the others saw this as their opening as they charged in he released his blade and punched them through the chest how is the weapon wielder so strong with their
bare hands was the last question he'd ever asked shell continued on his way anyone was since headed in the opposite direction the wannabe Yakuza members was discussing the perfect subject at the moment profits above all else was their motto if they managed to get the sisters property redeveloped they would all make a huge profit an underling burst into warn them that someone was killing their way up the tower give us the important details how many people dare to invade our headquarters a single individual only one someone has a suicide wish but the leader wasn't so
rash he knew their organization did their best to avoid powerful individuals how had something gone so wrong that they were in this situation it sucked that he had to deal with this problem but it was time to get to work he stood up too lazy to raise his Ax from the floor before they could even make it out of the room Xiao had made it to their location they were shocked that someone would kill a man begging for his life as Xiao crested The Landing fear ran down their spines upon seeing him the leader tried
to pick the right words to ready them for battle a mage show Warrior and a gunner struck their battle poses Xiao commented on them being level 4 professionals and they believed this meant he understood what kind of situation he was in they questioned him on his reason for being there sir he's the one that put two Jing in the coma Shao was no fool he knew it was time to become a monster he plunged the group Into Darkness to think he thinks that turning off the lights is going to change anything the Gunner specialized in
working in the Darkness as he activated his night vision it took his brain a second to comprehend what stood in front of them monster the rain continued to fall Outside Inside it was time for bodies to start hitting the floor the Gunner was terrified of what stood before his eyes this time his night vision was a disadvantage seeing as how he was the first one to die Xiao made short work of Joseph the Gunner the stench of blood alerted his teammates to his demise lightning lit up xiao's approach saving the leader from sudden death he
was only just able to block in time if he had been any slower he wouldn't be contemplating the situation he was in the Mage took the opening presented to him and launched a giant ice spike in his Direction Xiao deflected it without much thought he didn't appreciate being interrupted while playing with his prey so the Mage lost his head without a second thought and the leader soon followed the flying bird sword Crow was drenched in blood if I was reinforcement for this company I would have gone home these guys stood no chance if only they
had valued their lives over a job walked away leaving a mess in his wake the boss finally showed his face shall sniffed the air and got a whiff of rank 6 professional stink hopefully this fencer could put up a fight he could sense that Shaw wasn't a demon as he didn't possess the Demonic Madness that one felt when in the presence of such scum and he also knew that he wasn't a transformation specialist either for they wouldn't be able to put out such an aura he knew that such a creature was rare and when it
was over Dead or Alive zhao's body would compensate him for the losses that he brought upon his company such a company could only exist if the people in power were backing it this company was no different too bad the people in power were not on Humanity's side they spent all their time trying to fuse humans with demons so having such a hybrid drop into their laps would make up for the failures that happened here today the fencer vanished and went for zhao's head yes this was going to be interesting in one move the level 6
fencer knew what he was up against and decided to teach the half demon a lesson his barrage had no effect upon zhao's armor the fencer decided it was time to finish this he made a point-blank attack to zhao's chest a smile spread across his face as it forced the demon to dodge putting him in the perfect position for a sleight of hand python 357 to the face this attack was his Ace in the Hole it was so devastating that no one had ever survived he felt it was a Pity he couldn't take this creature alive
but the body should be good enough When the Smoke cleared Xiao stood there hate radiating from his face and the fencer knew things had taken a bad turn there's no way anyone could Dodge that attack he could only have evaded if he knew I was going to faint from the beginning who are you how could you know shall responded the 19th Reaper style Xiao had never seen anyone with such a low level capable of accomplishing so much with the style that he created it was easy to learn and anyone could Master it if they put
in enough time and effort but there was a rule that everyone who learned had to follow only ones who were on the path of righteousness could wield such a style Xiao confronted him about this fact what business is it to a monster like you sure this is the style created by mask can you not see that I'm using it to annihilate a monster like you is that not righteous your entire Corporation is built off the back of destroying innocent families I really don't care who stepped on your toes or the toes of someone you care
about but let me make this easy for you to understand demon the progress of human society shall march on infinitely and any force that impedes it whether it be creatures or mankind itself shall be deemed Sinners and their transgressions should be eradicated the path I walk has always been righteous a monster such as you could not comprehend such a thing he dashed forward a barrage of attacks encircled him as he moved but Xiao was done playing he brought out his Heavy Hitters he decided to show this scum how the path of the reaper was meant
to be used his first attack initiated the Dodge as his second attack hit its mark and a barrage of attacks like no other ensued as he lay on his deathbed he wondered what kind of monster used sneak attacks if you weren't so full of yourself you would have heard me clearly tell you who I was Xiao drew his bird blade and fetted its final meal of the night equipment name bloodraven unlimited growth type weapon equipment details this blade that has been stained by the blood of demons welcomes its own rebirth a muddy sea of blood
is hidden within its body and while wielding it this bloody sea will surge forward aggressively when the user doesn't need it this sword can be kept within a space of the system it can be retrieved into reality from the system at any time special ability bloodraven unlimited growth potential sends forward a powerful blade of blood that can easily tear through the ground so you aren't flying Crow anymore your blood Raven you know you haven't changed at all on the surface but I can tell you crave strength Shao and blood Raven we're going to be perfect
together an infinitely growing monster paired with an infinite growing demon blade the two together sounded just a little op Xiao found a straggler and fed the Raven sending the blast out the side of a skyscraper the battle inside the corrupt headquarters had attracted the military I guess that's to be expected seeing as how this company had some pretty high backers the military has spent their time wisely blocking all escapes they were now ready to move in but the commander Jiang first priority was to limit casualties he ordered for all attempts to be made to solve
this peacefully he knew that less than half of the people in that building was innocent above all else it was the job of the federal government to lay judgment upon criminals it was not the job of a random bystander whoever was inside would not be let off the hook easily no matter what their excuse was Xiao exited the building surrendering peacefully NCC rushed out to find Xiao after her sister only just informed her of his actions before she could make it out of her yard this civil defense Army had arrived to question her ma'am are
you Chinchin sir I'm in a hurry did something happen we're currently investigating this man is he an acquaintance of yours IO she was worried for her friend's safety no way he was dead because of her family's troubles it's okay ma'am he's in good health Xiao was being held at the civil defense Army's exclusive prison he wasn't being cooperative with their investigation they hadn't managed to get a single drop of information out of him other than admitting to his crimes his lips was it our investigation has returned zero pings on this man he's literally a ghost
we looked into the name he gave us shoutsio and it turned out to be related to a woman named yen sisi that's where things got interesting our investigation triggered the people over at the monitoring Bureau they have been frantically searching for a mysterious Thief who can bypass all their detections they believe our suspect fits the bill that's mysterious indeed give me all the information you have on the cncc she's a level two professional healer and her father was a level five professional who served in the army he retired after being wounded and the most interesting
part is he was offered a position as an official in the government but he politely declined the great obscenity incident took him from this world a few years ago he was survived by his two daughters the youngest of which became disabled because of the very same incident the ncc's deposition is that her original team the steel cutting Squad ran into him while exploring the secret Realm this statement is what triggered the Bureau of Investigation there is no official record of him being there let me guess the kaijan cooperation has been harassing her family for their
land rights yes sir so we're Prosecuting a righteous Warrior the head of the monitoring Bureau director Arthur was eager to put this thief away he wasn't going to waste any time with red tape between him and Commander Gian there should be no problem seeing as how they were the two strongest people in day City Xiao was hit with a bout of nostalgia upon seeing the honors pinned to the Commander's coat the sharp eye of the commander picked up on this shouts show while I believe your actions were righteous a crime is a crime I'm pretty
sure you know the extent of the punishment handed out for such a crime you will be sentenced to death or given the choice to be enlisted in the atonement Battalion in my opinion the death penalty is the better of the two options but if you survive the hell you'll be put through you'll be acquitted of your sins and be able to return to civilization the commander knew that the atonement Battalion was a death trap no one had ever returned back to civilization from that program there was a high chance that anyone that entered would die
in the first battle and most criminals must face at least 100 and some as high as 3 000 battles Xiao asked why serving on the front line was considered a punishment he knew his experiences on the front line should clear him of a lifetime of sins the commander knew a veteran of the front line when he saw one what was your status warriors fighting against Monsters or were you another status Xiao admitted to being other the two men stared at each other there was a short list of survivors of the front line it shouldn't take
them long to discover his true identity with this information the two explained their history from the monster front line they were both considered veterans even though Arthur had spent drastically less time on the line if it wasn't for the actions of mask and the first group of Heroes The Divide between humans and monsters would not have been formed this medal signifies the fact that I fought under the Great Hero mask at the time I was younger and the best I could do was to follow him from afar as someone who's been on the front lines
you should understand how important this peaceful environment is and your actions could directly endanger all we've worked hard for can you enter special Realms without being noticed shy either admitted nor denied the accusations such news could lead to social unrest your actions could lead to the death of an unknown number of professionals and cause our stable world to fall into chaos Xiao showed no signs of caring the two veterans picked up on this and tried to talk sense into the young fellow the federal government won't take kindly to your attitude it's the equivalent of trying
to smash a rock with an egg I do hope you decide to confess if we send you to the federal capital things won't go so easily and I hate to see the talent of the young wasted the two veterans left the room leaving shout to his thoughts he had fond memories of the federal capital the fact that he wanted to visit just wasn't possible at the moment main mission the great obscenity reincarnation description who would have imagined that a few years ago the great obscenity wasn't completely eradicated its residue infectious radiation in people's body is
actually an unstable source of calamity it's not completely removed then the great obscenity will be reborn from accumulated enhanced infectious radiation over time since the government did not make it their priority to cleanse away all traces of radiation there's a high chance that the great obscenity will return in the next few hours Mission objective destroyed the new calamity Mission reward great obscenity Corps showers the mask was never that impressed by the Calamity level monsters they were only ever as strong as level 13 and the weakest being as weak as level 7. he really didn't need
the system to tell him that the great obscenity would come back this exact scenario happened in his previous life not long after the first time he went through that scam of a trial the great obscenity laid weight in the cells of a professional eventually turning them into its host it's just like a wheat no matter what you do you can't eradicate it if you leave the smallest route in the ground eventually it'll come back he had been just transferred to the front line when the Calamity hit it took him time to get back to eradicate
it even though he killed it with one punch the public still looked down on him for not being faster the disrespect verbal abuse he received as a hero how come you weren't fast enough you should always be the first one to arrive on the scene we've given you such light punishment and you still don't know how to be grateful this is your fault if you had killed it the first time this wouldn't have happened again you should apologize to the public apologize to the world he put his life on the line for these people and
they made him get up in front of them and apologize for sacrificing everything for them not once but twice in his past life that's why this time around the hero Mask doesn't exist only Xiao and he wouldn't take responsibility for saving everyone when the Calamity hit they can do it themselves the two old veterans discussed their strategy moving forward author I've been retired from the front lines for a while now you know more about the status of the monster front than I do you think what he says is possible it shouldn't be too hard to
find out I've never seen anyone his age have such power if you saw the horrors in that building you would think there was a monster outbreak even the wounds left by his blade were unusual a blade which we've searched tirelessly for and haven't been able to recover I'm sure he's cultivating multiple professional paths at the same time there's no other explanation it's highly likely we have a genius on our hands most people would have a hard time even touching a level 6 professional and he casually chopped one's head off and to be traversed in multiple
class systems it takes most people a lifetime to get the hang of just one he's more like a dumb genius to throw your life away over such trash like kaijian we have no other choice but to leave his judgment up to the Federation yeah a federation that even judged the mask and through our first line of defense out the window what bad timing for such a young genius Star City the federal government capital before the Dark Ages the whole site that this beautiful Masterpiece resides on was that of a third tier city of the 20th
and 21st century this whole city is a beacon to mankind its purpose was to lead mankind into the future the federal Council set around discussing Xiao there was a difference of opinion at the table some believe that the horror that he showed in a single night could only be punished with the death penalty others believed they should cultivate such talent but the group of old men trying to hold on to power wasn't interested in someone who could be the next mask they believed him to be a danger to the public the most vocal among them
was the true owner of kaijian Corporation he was Furious he lost his cash cow in a single night he cared nothing about the lives lost all he cared about was the money lost in the time it would take to get the corporation back up and running he was only interested in Saving Face he was upset that the leader wanted to send his Target to the front line to die out of the public sigh what message would that send to all his other white gloves around the world and with that the conversation turned back to the
subject that the president was obsessed with the head spent considerable resources searching for the mask with no luck none of the council members dared to open their mouth no one just disappears he has to be somewhere in this world yet none of you have found a single trace of him are you all not worried that one day he's going to pop up and give us a surprise of a lifetime sir we have nothing to worry about he released all his power then what do you call that disappearing act what can he do with whatever he
has left Mr President sir our propaganda machine is in full force his fans are disappearing by the day no one in the public would ever support him if he tried to attack us he represents an unknown danger to all of us the president knew he had complete power over the Federation there was only one man out there with a trump card against him he conceded so much power to everyone in this room just to get rid of the mask and he's still out there for the sake of everyone here we need to find the mask
and put a leash on him let's move on to other topics sir the monster frontlines seem to be failing the appearance of monsters have increased by 32 percent over the previous month this is the first time there has been an increase since the founding of the Federation everyone knew this was a clear side effect of losing the mask he was the perfect Soldier why did we choose to attack him he never interfered in any of our business how dare you question the decisions of this Council do you believe without the mask our Federation won't survive
I believe if something serious happened we would be in trouble peace make soldiers weak and the council should do something about it the president ordered the most valuable troops to be sent to the front line a council member instantly refuted this idea the city Defenders are the last line of defense for all the cities around the world it would be unwise to redeploy them this triggered infighting yes it would hurt your pocketbooks to lose access to the city Defense Force yeah doesn't your family Supply the equipment for the Defense Force it doesn't sound like it'll
bold well for your company how dare all of you slander me the president put his hand down it settled the city Defense Force will be redeployed to the most vulnerable areas there hasn't been a wide-scale demon outbreak in Cities and Years it's imperative that we downsize them immediately and have this criminal brought to the capital post haste it'll be good for everyone if an example of him is made in the public eye back in days City the two sisters were sent home you too have nothing to do with this incident so you're free to go
if you're needed by the courts you will be summoned as a witness jianlu was not pleased by any of this the female Soldier continued to run on at the mouth oblivious to the feelings of the two vicious why did you call him vicious he stood up to such trash and he's vicious he has the blood of countless humans on his hand killing is not the solution to anyone's problems he killed not a single innocent person the whole Corporation has an unknown number of victims all over the city and he's vicious this whole system is the
definition of viciousness the commander approached agreeing with everything that she said he believed that each one of them deserved to die it was not his place to be judged and jury that task belonged to the Federation and the Federation alone chianlu was having none of this then how come you chose not to stop them just like the light from the sun there will always be darkness that can't be dispelled by light so you believe we ought to just endure the darkness the world was built off of sacrifices young lady so you're saying that there's no
way for the world to resist the darkness your personal Rebellion is unjust so you're saying I should lay down and take what's fed to me even if it's unjust if that's the case this whole world is a mistake ncc's heartthrobbed for her little sister she had taken on the world and its Injustice and no longer had the ability to scream in its face you're not going to accomplish anything here let's go home little one as they left the commander wish the young lady had the ability to stand the anger in her is beyond anything I've
ever seen the world is lesser because of her disability who knows where I would be if I had the same level of anger when I was her age she should get over it nothing will ever come from it in her condition her rage is worthless to her and the world go get rest I'll clean up the yard and think of a solution for Xiao the events of the day had broken the restraints that Chien Liu held inside if there are areas in the world where the sun doesn't shine then I shall be the light if
there are such areas of Darkness then there is no need for the sun to exist chianlu Rose from her chair and prepare to be the Justice the world needed Yen CC rushed back she had forgotten the house was still a mess she was shocked that her sister was walking towards her chin Lu quick run her rage from that day was all that was needed to resurrect the great obscenity the Civil Defense Forces were in the Uproar all over the world people were handing in their resignations left and right everyone knew that the monster front Lions
was essentially a death sentence the commander was in the middle of a speech to gain control of the situation when he felt the presence of the Great obscenity Commander what's going on it's not possible but the Great obscenity Is Back the commander knew that time was of the essence he had no time to reassure them one way or the other he burst through the skyscraper's window as he leaped out he gave the order to begin evacuating day City the citizens of day City went about their business as usual news of xiao's capture was being broadcast
to the public three days ago the city Defense Force swiftly captured the culprit behind the massacre at kaijian building pink flowers begin to Blossom all over the city a young man wondered if it was due to the warmer weather recently until he noticed their rapid growth a bumblebee landed on a flower only to be consumed she swiftly transformed into a flower the whole city was unaware of the danger that awaited them the young man's brother wondered what was wrong as the light had turned green the site that unfolded was not pleasant his body vanished sending
petals floating on the Wind the citizens were unaware of the dangers the petals possessed some were already in full panic mode as giant amalgamation rolls with the streets like children at play the citizens were being transformed into rose-headed beasts one after the other lucky for them a hero with high Charisma was there to save them all psych this fool will most likely be dead soon he swung his Broad Sword cutting the amalgamation in half cool words flowed from his lips and without putting up much of a fight he too was consumed that was all it
took for the other professionals to realize the danger they were in that green glow is this the Great obscenity the Civil Defense Force was outnumbered before they arrived on the scene Commander this is the opposite of the Great obscenity instead of decaying they're all growing nothing has truly changed if we don't stop this here the world is doomed he named them human flowers I'm going to call them Rose heads the commander ordered his men to be on guard nothing's ever simple but monsters so be ready they were going to focus on containment they were each
to spread out by streets and keep the rose heads isolated to their section the Defense Force members took no time following this order the citizens were being consumed one after the other as they ran for their lives the commander ordered the citizens to move otherwise they'd be toast he let out a dragon's breath that blasted through the city its intent to burn away the infection all he did was give the spectators a false sense of hope as the rose heads burst into flames their petals scattered infecting anyone in their vicinity the great obscenities pathogens passed
on even through Ash the spread of roses was only the beginning it was as if Mother Earth was reclaiming what was hers the city was quickly covered in green no human insight and no one was safe orders were passed around that fire only spread the pathogens faster they had to contain the spread to the city as the infection easily assimilated normal humans Arthur caught up with the commander the two were attempting to brainstorm a solution to their problems Arthur had seen the first Calamity with his own eyes and knew this was the Great obscenity but
at the same time it wasn't the only explanation was that This calamity Beast had true immortality immortality was not unheard of in nature there was a jellyfish which upon reaching maturity returned to a juvenile State and started over repeating this process forever but even with this it wasn't truly immortal if it caught a disease it would be eradicated the same had to be true for the great obscenity the commander processed the situation the original radiation must have lean in weight evolving over time what we have here is the evolution of what we didn't finish the
first time around those bastards what do you mean author The Mask warned us this would happen he ordered the government to treat every victim's radiation that they had to remove every instance of the radiation in the city but it didn't take long for them to abandon the advice given to them the group corruptly embezzled The Money The Mask had set aside for the victims he warned us and we didn't listen we'll have to discuss this later author we will get to the bottom of why this happened later but now is the time for action I
need your monitoring division to track the obscenities energy source inform me immediately if it spreads outside the city limit and I need to know ASAP where the main source of energy is located Commander you're going to get yourself killed if you go up against that Beast all the time is of the essence at the moment that Calamity hasn't surpassed rank 9. if I have any chance of defeating it I have to do it now the monster is more natural disaster than a combat Force all these things lie in my favor this will be our only
chance if we fail the price will be high I'll get you what you need Commander promise me you'll be careful the news of the Calamity was spreading around the world the reporters in Sky City reported through their shock but in this modern world mainstream media wasn't the only place to receive updates of what was going on abroad people conversed and stayed up to date through live streams and applications all around the world and the top subject was the mask and his whereabouts even after tossing him out the world still relied on his strength no matter
what the situation mask was always the solution and the scapegoat mankind was simply obsessed with their social media even in a life and death situation you have to keep your Twitter updated who wants to read all this trash let's just skip through it [Music] it seems the news is boring and just as useless as Twitter posts long story short the commander is about to hand a beating to Mother Nature so let's skim through these News Post also ah here we go he had finally found the being who was responsible qianlu waited on a flower high
in the sky looking like a goddess waiting to be worshiped I've seen plenty of things just like you if the world doesn't work the way you think it should you will forcefully impose yourself upon it there have been cases throughout history where humans follow monsters who pose to be biblical Reincarnation of great beings this was a common practice when monsters first appeared on our world but in the end even the human she trick will see the light eventually author won the commander that the little girl from earlier was gone and this was one hundred percent
a monster the commander understood what was standing in front of him and continued their conversation it was the last thing on my mind that only a few hours after seeing you that you would become such a monster I bet you regret it the only thing I regret is that I didn't solder you while you sat in that wheelchair the commander charged up and shot a beam directly towards jinmu's head removing half her skull in the process the cameraman gave all praise to the commander he would end this before it started he was most definitely the
hope of day she reacted as if she had just received a light buzz cut shianlu glanced over her shoulder a smile plastered on her face it's useless it only took her a few seconds to regain her previous human resemblance the commander knew her rapid regeneration only spelled trouble for his attempts to save his City this is crazy half her face was gone just now but why isn't she dead yet isn't she just a monster he would just have to hit her harder he would continue to hit her until she didn't get up his attacks had
no effect her regeneration was just too strong is this the so-called sunlight that dispels Darkness she didn't waste any time throwing that into his face and worse than that she radiated killer intent towards him the commander wasted no time retreating but it was all in vain she was much faster than him and before he landed she was on the offensive from behind his back as she continued to berate him with his words they were moving so fast that the cameraman couldn't keep track of them with the naked eye the commander realized the environment was a
disadvantage to him the monster was capable of moving to the vicinity of any plant in the city and plants just so happened to be everywhere Arthur was worried for the safety of the commander there was no way he could win this fight but the commander knew the outcome of retreating the people in charge would resort to their Ace in the Hole but even if he wished to retreat in his current situation how would that be possible it was time to put it all on the line he removed his jacket his seriousness evident on his face
the masked metal was precious to him sheenbu the monster was relentless with her tongue is this what a trapped animal looks like no this is me living every second to the death the commander let his Elemental energy radiate from his body sending the beams skywards it is known that Elemental professionals are not immune to Elemental effects so using elements to overload can result in death this can only mean he's preparing a suicide attack on the Great obscenity but it turns out the commander was not committing suicide he was using ultimate release a move that used
every last bit of his life energy in his attack after this there wouldn't be anything left Arthur was sure he was going to lose his friend on this day chianlu wasn't worried in the slightest that the commander had essentially just upgraded from Level 7 to level 8. if the commander lived to see another day he would be nothing more than an ordinary person prone to sickness and disease like everyone else he had no time for her silliness and instantly dashed in she screamed that everything he did was futile it only took a single thought and
she would move anywhere in the city but to her surprise his fists were faster than her mind half her body was blown away but the commander was in no better shape in his current condition he was prone to the infection but his Elemental lightning burned it away causing an unparalleled pain the cameraman should know better by now that this wasn't going to end well the Commander's attack would only cause her to stop playing around and to become serious Arthur poured over the data his instruments produced the more he saw the more he realized that her
power Spike didn't make any sense and that's when it hit him and tius is a figure from Greek mythology who was believed to be a giant and the son of the Earth goddess Gia and the sea god Poseidon according to the myth antias was undefeated in battle as long as he remained in contact with the Earth Hercules the famous Greek hero defeated antias in a wrestling match by lifting him up off the ground thereby breaking his connection to the Earth and weakening him the great obscenity was using the city and all the people in it
as her power source as long as she was here she was essentially immortal she's Legion she's one but also many the monitoring Bureau knew before anyone else that there was a change going on on the battlefield Chien Lu's energy was rapidly Rising exceeding previous records recorded by The Bureau throughout history the great obscenity was rapidly outpacing the Commander's current level it had no idea that humans could reach such Heights by burning themselves alive all the Commander's life he had dreamed of wandering the world with the sword protecting the Innocents with the power you had you
had the ability to dispel the darkness but instead you chose to let so many people drown in the dark I want to know why you made this choice all the creatures in the city screamed why over and over as they rushed to become one with their goddess the civil defense soldiers couldn't hold their Shields up any longer but lucky for them the rose heads had lost interest in destroying them their goddess needed them immediately the soldiers were surprised to be alive but as the shadow covered them in darkness they realized this situation had just got
serious Vines swirled around chenlu as she transformed into a being capable of destroying the world the commander answered her disappointing her and me alike it's because of this damn world and in this world death is nothing new and living isn't new either the news continued to disappoint viewers with premature reporting people around the world cheered believing the commander to be victorious find Split surrounding the commander as he approached her core since being alive is nothing new then why don't you go to hell along with everything in this damn world she smashed him and tossed the
petals away just like an egg against a stone she couldn't help using his words one last time with that Commander Jiang didn't exist in this reality anymore and the world stood there shocked the daughter of the commander didn't want this thing burned into her daughter's mind for the rest of her life people around the world was addicted to the mask it's just as Chandler said this world is full of retards they stood around puzzled by what they were currently witnessing it was time for the federal government to feel the wrath of the people as it
didn't take long for the world to need the presence of a mask and the few fans he had left let their presence be known evacuation procedures began in the prison Xiao was being held in the president of the Federation was Furious he couldn't get a single high level professional to step up to the natural disaster in day City they needed someone to move now not in 30 minutes if they waited around that long there wouldn't be a city to protect he raged on about how if it wasn't for the sacrifices of the ones who came
before mankind wouldn't be here if only you hadn't decided to be so ruthless when it came to the mask the president took a seed knowing the statement to be true it was time to resort to the one trump card mankind held a small nuclear missile shouldn't hurt day City that much and the nuclear fallout afterwards should be minimum everybody was in agreeance to level that City to the ground they had no problem sacrificing the few to save the many the president thought he was bloodthirsty but these people were manic the outcome of this situation would
not leave him in a good light urging news spread around the world that something was headed towards the natural disaster at high speed the president hopes Rose all this time he hoped a professional was willing to stand up for mankind he was informed that this wasn't good the reports coming in referred to the other being as a monster their situation was going from bad to worse Xiao had no problem exiting the prison he cut through obstacles in his way as if they were nothing the prison guard was in shock all he could say was he
escaped the city Defense Force stood around in shock grieving their loss what could they do without the commander it only took one among them to panic to trigger a full retreat their Captain ordered them not to run to stand their ground he charged towards the rose heads by himself determined not to see this day end in tragedy but what exactly could a single soldier do his act of defiance against the monsters caught the attention of one of the retreating soldiers who decided he too would fight alongside the captain he burst forward with a raisin Gant
but before he could take two steps a dark wave sliced through the area leaving all the rose heads destroyed some unknown Force had just saved their life the great obscenity turned towards the incoming Danger sit tight I'm going to go higher the tower gave instructions that we must retreat the cameraman wasn't planning on retreating that easy his attention was drawn to the dark wave cutting a path through the overgrowth covering day City the people around the world weren't only ungrateful towards the mask anyone that stepped up was judged and looked down upon for not doing
it sooner the world really was just full of entitled judgmental losers Xiao made his way through the city making quick work of each Rose head in his path the world believed him to be their hero but Xiao wasn't interested in saving them his actions were about his growth the completion of his mission was all that concerned him Monster's path main mission six obscenity reincarnation the natural disaster level monster that was once destroyed appeared again and the shadow of Destruction has enveloped the entire city Mission objective to eliminate the new natural disaster Mission reward the core
of the Great obscenity Xiao knew firsthand that the last great obscenities Aura gave off the stench of decay but this one's core aspects gave off the full Vibes of life the city was slowly becoming a primal Forest tropical plants Vines and towering trees grew freely over everything it was as if life was turning this area into its Paradise if no one was able to stop this natural disaster the whole planet would become a beautiful Wasteland to humans the original Decay great obscenity was just a form of evil but this new great filth was the ultimate
Evil even though the task ahead was daunting Xiao had no choice but to push forward his goal was to obtain the heart of this Beast giving him the power to fight the monsters of the Void who awaited him in the future he had to kill it no matter what chenlu sent out a call to all beings on this planet living in this filthy world is an agonizing experience I invite you to join me and surrender yourself to my cause completely together we can create a world that is beautiful free from sadness pain and Injustice chianlu
was acutely aware of how much she had changed all the knowledge and experiences she had assimilated had merged with her being and those who had sacrificed everything for their shared cause had become like family they were United in their commitment to a life filled with joy and purpose and as they continued to grow in numbers more individuals would be welcomed into their community of Purity where they could Thrive without the burden of Sorrow she was aware of the pain cutting its way towards her she shouted who is it shall never thought the monster he would
face would be chianlu she wondered why he hadn't assimilated nothing should be immune to the pathogen she released in the air even the monster heading towards her should be susceptible to them Xiao wasted no time attacking his old friend he would do his best to free her from the prison that she resided in she regrew the arm he decimated with his first attack continuing the swing to squash him the rose heads would do whatever it took to protect their master but they were only a slight distraction but as he sliced them down he sensed their
intentions to explode in his presence it's fast too fast the natural disaster is going to have trouble facing this Beast just watching this battle is getting my adrenaline flowing and my heart pumping the people around the world stood in awe of what they witnessed some wondered whether the monster before them was actually a professional who had the look of a monster with each explosion and burst of Ash he narrowly avoided certain death however it was not sheer luck that kept him alive but rather his strength and determination to break through the blockade as quickly as
possible the humanoid creature deliberately skirted the edge of the explosions at the critical moment saving precious time but it was a calculated risk an ending this step could result in his demise he relied on his speed agility and Keen insight to navigate the dangerous Terrain all three of these qualities were crucial to his survival the ability of humans to battle monsters lies and their superior wisdom and skill however the Ingenuity displayed by this humanoid monster exceeds even that of a seasoned ninth level professional although it resembles a human the armor it wears is rather peculiar
if a day comes when monsters surpass human capabilities what recourse will we have shall made it through the bomb field as he crested shianlu's shoulder the wings of a gargoyle shot from his back this move shocked the Great obscenity for zhao's original approach was only to toy with her emotions most humans were shocked and didn't understand the ramifications of the actions of the monster but seasoned professionals understood how much confidence it took to perform such a high level of deception shall let Blood Rave and Flow the attack decimated the head of the natural disaster causing
her to pause all functions everyone the attack worked it successfully split the monster's head all the rose heads around the city came to a pause they stopped you see all the humanoid flowers in the whole city have stopped they are all not moving anymore have we won did that monster eliminate the natural disaster who are you who are you who are you repeated over and over all throughout the city spotted bloodraven she knew who she faced even as she asked the question held his tongue was in disbelief that Xiao turned out to be a monster
also she relaxed in his presence the two of us don't have to fight if we combine our strength nothing on this planet could stand in our way we can change this terrible world together presented her core as a peace offering item name the core of the Great obscenity item description only those who have been recognized by the great obscenity can use this core the power it releases is comparable to that of all of Mother Nature Xiao was slightly tempted by such an offer the two of us can cleanse this dirty world join us and we'll
spread across this planet we'll rise to the top of the highest mountain and travel the depths of the lowest valleys will travel by river and meet the sea and spread throughout its depths anywhere there's Darkness will be there to illuminate it in light and if the two of us aren't able to accomplish this goal we will destroy the darkness along with everything on this planet she let her Mantra be known to the world the pain of her words was felt in all of their hearts the sound of tens of thousands of humanoid flowers shouting at
the same time is so powerful that I feel my heart about to jump out of my chest is this natural disaster immortal but what's more worrying is that these two monsters seem to know each other shall continue to hold his tongue protect Humanity cooperate with monsters no he had no interest in such things even before he was reborn Xiao was sickened by the mere thought of them now that he had been reborn there was only one thing that mattered to him the complete annihilation of all monsters to achieve this goal Xiao was willing to transform
into a monster at the mercy of the system all that matters now is acquiring the strength and power necessary to defeat every single Monster that exists nothing will stand in his way and shall would stop at nothing until every last one of them were eradicated so you won't talk to me is ending This Disaster all you care about so we'll do it your way either you and me or I end the world chenlu said it with pure joy her head exploded sending Vines directly for him she entangled him crushing him with all her strength he
retracted his gargo wings and brought out his spider claws slicing The Vines apart she instantly swallowed him whole and Xiao exited through the back of her skull he realized the brain didn't possess the target he was looking for so the next place he would look would be the heart as he sliced into her back he was met by resistance that proved he was on the right track she tried every trick she had she hardened The Vines and regenerated them as he cut into her she resorted to flinging out a wave of explosions which Xiao ignored
continuing his Onslaught surrounded in Fire and brimstones as his armor peeled from his face his Target was being revealed and without hesitation shall fed Raven the blood of the Great obscenity 's True Body hovered in the air blade in her chest I didn't expect you to succeed in breaking a rock with an egg yet again shoutshiel forced the blade through to the other side he had spent all his energy accomplishing this goal jianlu gently caught him as he began to fall from the sky she was stunned at how beautiful he was to her eyes couldn't
hold the candle in his presence chianlu reassured him that the battle was over and he was the victor she was living on the borrowed time that her power afforded her have we lost is they City doomed the cameraman's face lit up in pure horror a noise no one could mistake could be heard cutting across the sky the whole city froze in its presence it lit up the storm clouds announcing the Doom the city would soon face a nuclear bomb streaked across the sky the cameraman reported this to the world the big shots that the Federation
had decided to forsake day City for the sake of the world the Federation president begged for forgiveness what have I done it's true they are completely heartless willing to sacrifice not just some monsters like you and me but also an entire city if it suits their purpose what a callous disregard for life at the very least I'll make sure everyone sees what kind of people who lead the Federation truly are this would be my final act before I die with that chin Lou calmly walked back into her giant amalgamation the rose heads rushed to lend
her their strength she reached out towards the nuke ready to meet it with a gentle embrace as she did so she transformed into idrisil the Tree of Life the nuke was only moments from contact people around the world held their breath as the people of day City prepared to die chianlu consumed the nuke protecting the city as best she could the roses that had been in the vicinity vanished in an instant gianlu did all she could to protect Xiao from the blast she cocooned him in her strongest Vines the mushroom cloud blossomed as the impact
spread across the city the few people who were lucky enough to be shielded wondered if it was all over the monitoring Bureau confirmed that the energy source the natural disaster was emitting ceased to exist director author spoke to the memory of Commander Jian old friend day city has been secured as his honor jacket drifted to the ground did the natural disaster just protect the city from the nuclear missile on purpose no way that's the case you must have seen it wrong shinlu split open showering the city with cherry blossom petals the site was truly beautiful
a little girl danced around in the flowers as her father worried for her safety but as she made contact with the petals nothing happened the Calamity was truly over Xiao held shenlu in his arms as she said her parting words I didn't realize that spring was this beautiful as she reached up she vanished into a sparkle of green dust Monster's path main task destruction of The Reincarnation of the great obscenity completed reward core of the great obscenity delivered a green heart Post in zhao's hand he was shocked that he had obtained the heart of such
an evil enemy and a dear friend without a second thought shall equip the heart of the Great obscenity and vanished from day City people watching at home were ecstatic for the survival of mankind everyone was so wrapped up in their own celebration that no one noticed the rose heads reverting back to humans the NCC had been one of the Rose heads this entire time the people at home were shocked to Silence by what they were witnessing a few among them realized that even the people who were destroyed by the bombs were returning to life the
internet message boards filled with people arguing over the merits of whether the nukes should have been used or not the next most popular topic revolved around the mask the opinions range from being for the mask to people believing that Humanity would always fare well without him after the incident the government cleared the internet of all traces of their crime against humanity it didn't matter if it was a live stream or a news broadcast all of it vanished Without a Trace the big shots sat around the Federation headquarters meeting room in Star City the topic of
discussion was how they would seamlessly move forward from this incident sir we have controlled the discussion of the incident but majority of the people in the world witnessed what happened in day City because we used public opinion to condemn the mask the public won't rest until we explain ourselves to them the president sat there ignoring the whole lot of them the vultures were at his door how had he ended up in such a situation he knew the members around him were plotting his demise the president's right-hand man had an idea that would place the blame
squarely and who was responsible for this incident even though everyone here agreed to use the nuclear weapon to exterminate the natural disaster how has the mass got away with taking zero responsibility for this incident Mr song how can this be related to The Mask we have no idea where he's hiding that's exactly the reason why this event is his responsibility if he had been there none of this would have happened the world is paying a heavy price because of his choices all those pointless sacrifices were because of him he throws all of the sacrifices Humanity
made for him in our faces and he dares leave without even saying goodbye forgetting the world's generosity in an instance so the responsibility of what happened in day City lay squarely on his shoulders everyone in the headquarters meeting room was left speechless by the line of logic presented the president remained seated long after everyone had left his second in command assuring him that he would take care of everything down to the smallest details in truth the president wasn't worried in the slightest a new player had emerged on the scene and even if this Pawn was
only one-tenth as strong as the mask it would still be enough to solve all of Humanity's problems the president turned his attention to the matter at hand the morning sun plan his right hand man explained that since experiment 268 had been successful the plan had been moving forward rapidly there were numerous test subjects who even without activating the new human state were able to live stable lives for a long period of time however activating the new human State carried the risk of causing the body to rapidly enter into a state of collapse despite this there
was still insufficient evidence to determine whether the fusion of monsters and humans wasn't entirely feasible if the mask was the one who saved Humanity from Extinction then we will be the ones who Elevate Humanity to Heights never before seen he said confidently when the power of monsters becomes accessible to all of mankind we will be elevated to the level of Gods the Battlefront against the monsters spans not just a single line but an expansive area of up to 1 million square kilometers in ancient times this area was a part of Africa South America and even
Antarctica as recorded in the Dark Age however in the hundred years since Humanity was nearly wiped out the land has undergone terrifying tectonic shifts and collisions compressing the natural processes that would have taken millions of years into a mere Century as a result the landscape is almost unrecognizable with towering mountains and newly formed bodies of water where there was once flat Terrain before the arrival of the army led by The Mask there was no sign of humans on the front lines monsters that emerged from the secret Realms had taken over the entire area these monsters
not only lived in their own cities but also relentlessly attacked humans in other regions resulting in countless casualties there is a place even more dreaded than the front lines of the monster battle it was a small city in the country once known as Thailand but is now Infamous as the birthplace of calamity this is the very spot where all the horror and Devastation began and it was only thanks to mass that Humanity was able to set foot on this land once again with his Unstoppable methods he compressed and twisted the demons land like the wrath
of Gods turning it into the front line between humans and monsters from living day to day not knowing if they would survive to making rapid progress everything was made possible by this god-like man inside a dense forest blocked by mountains on all sides for soldiers guarded the entrance to a portal they argued about who would explain what happened to their Captain they all feared her response as she exited the portal she had just cleared a secret realm with the demon boss of level seven doing so while being rank 7 herself in only 30 minutes the
power of their Captain Jam Ling was amazing no wonder she was known as a genius why do you all look so dumb what's going on speak up a natural disaster level monster appeared in day City the incident was resolved but your father commandered jump perished in the attack he sacrificed himself for the well-being of the whole city it was a magnificent display that brings honor to your family's name noted we'll head to the next secret Realm as the group marched through the forest Captain Jian Ling's underlings hung back gossiping do you think she's really okay
of course she's okay her nickname isn't unmovable eyes for no reason they both straightened up as she threatened to have them both sent to the atonement camps the formation of secret rounds in the monster front lines occurs at an accelerated rate compared to anywhere else in the world it is only through the efforts of Commander Jian Ling's team and their high efficiency that the number of secret Realms forming in a continuous manner can be kept under control the stronger the team the more secret Realms they had to contend with and her team was no exception
they were seriously worried for their captain and one of them felt it was wise to accompany her into the secret realm even though they hadn't fought alongside her in a long time they didn't want their group to become her permanent cheerleaders she didn't mind their concern but could not let them doubt her skills with her spear in hand she walked into the dungeon alone disappearing into the portal her team felt relieved as her presence vanished into the portal and hoped for her safe return as she traveled deeper into the dark Cavern without facing a single
Monster surprise was clear in her eyes as she found them all slaughtered it seemed a certain protagonist had relocated to a more secluded location and was obviously putting great effort into achieving his goals Captain jungling had never ran into a situation like this before out on the front lines you rarely ran into a pre-pillage secret Realm it literally just wasn't heard of and to make matters worse the wounds on the monster were consistent with a single attacker there was no way there was anyone else in existence just like her she sensed killing intent and her
reflexes put her on edge but the attack never came she knew the monster's responsible had to be nearby she rushed to the sounds of battle and found a single individual taking on three Street Sharks she couldn't believe someone at such a low level was able to handle their ground against such beasts his combat skills were simply exquisite she had never witnessed someone with fatal wounds hold their ground with simply skills alone there was no way he was normal it was obvious that the Street Sharks had seriously done a number to him she decided to intervene
for there was no way he would last much longer she landed with a lightning smash forcing The Stranger back jianling wasted no time piercing the First Street shock through the heart she instantly relieved the second one of his head their insides looked just like tuna without his comrades the Third Street Sharks stood no chance she hit shell with a barrage of questions where's your team what's your name why are you here she realized instantly that the lights were on but no one was home the next moment Xiao was out for the count this totally disappointed
her she was hoping for an ally she could respect instead she gained another burden the street shark gang wasn't going to put up with such disrespect on their turf the whole family decided to come out and deal with The Intruders jumbling wasn't impressed purple electricity started from the tip of her Spear and spread across her whole body and while her and her father may have had their problems there was one thing they saw eye to eye monsters all deserve to die her electricity arced outwards spreading throughout the cave her team stood at attention waiting for
their Captain to re-emerge from the portal the newest member of the team was worried but the others reassured him that she was probably just letting off a little steam after all her father had just died they could all just imagine what the monsters inside were going through they believed her personality to be very similar to the Commanders even if they had power similar to the two there was no way they could charge forward so bravely after losing a family member to stand up to a natural disaster knowing your life was surely forfeited was seriously badass
none of them had such courage the group hushed as the captain was returning through the portal Captain Jiang returned with Xiao slumped over her shoulder her team wondered if he was a monster she found inside the secret Realm they had no idea they had hit the nail on the head the group rushed shout to the closest Army Camp majority of the camps scattered across the front lines were relatively small only servicing a few thousand people there were larger camps but they were few in numbers those serviced at any one-time tens of thousands of people only
one quarter of the residents were professionals the rest had ties to the military you would think in such a world that professional healers wouldn't be too hard to come by but in reality there was a shortage of Healers there were barely enough to fight off the hordes of enemies as they invaded the world because of this normal human doctors had plenty of work zhao's condition was stable at the moment the doctor had no idea how a human could survive such trauma his internal organs were all harmed to varying degrees even a professional should have a
hard time surviving such injuries it turns out he seemed to have a passive healing ability the likes of which the doctor had never seen before all Captain John heard was this low-level professional is seriously strong they had no idea why his body was saturated with low levels of radiation but such radiation explained the scars on his face the hospital's plans were to court in him off because said radiation they had no doubt he would fully recover between his innate healing abilities and their care he should be discharged very quickly but army camp and three Supreme
Commander Liang jinya tossed the hospital's plans right out the window Xiao would return with them there was no need for him to remain in the hospital the Supreme Commander was Jian Ling's mentor and they wasted no time relocating to their headquarters back at the command post of army camp N3 the Supreme Commander began jiangling's debriefing they're fixing to start the usual bit where the Federation takes credit for zhao's hard work the central government was hard at work cleaning up the aftermath of the natural disaster of day City it was the consensus that because of the
hard work of the Federation the natural disaster as a whole ended on a good note the world was still in mourning over the lives that were lost during the tragedy there were quite a few soldiers who perished during the incident and everyone felt the need to honor that sacrifice Jim Ling's father had died honorably the Supreme Commander insisted that dying in battle was the highest honor for a warrior like them one day he too would perish in exactly the same way he knew jungling was private so he took it upon himself to block the media's
attention towards her they were eager to get their hands on the children's of Commander Jian but the world would have to do without such closure the Supreme Commander insisted that now was the time for jiomling to lay down The Grudges she held against her father after growing to such a level he knew she understood that the choices her father made those many years ago even she would make in her current form after all her hatred was really against herself not her father as he left he decided to drop her a few hints cough cough he
insisted jianling would be wise to learn as much about fighting in combat from her new friend as she could for someone who could control that sword had to be very interesting she hit him with 50 questions but all she received in return was a cough cough all she could do was wait for Xiao to wake up but she wouldn't be waiting long for he woke with a start he had no idea where he was he most definitely wasn't used to being in such a vulnerable situation but it turns out he wasn't the one with the
fear jungling took a few steps back and brandished her spear never in her life had she been threatened by the presence of a single individual Xiao did his best to ease her worries he wasted no time pulling the ivy out of his arm she felt his actions to be strange he showed no interest in caring about where he was or how he got there he decided for her sake that he would dialogue with her a little which army camp is this and three are you the one who dragged me out of the secret Realm she
introduced herself and expected him to reciprocate he obliged her with his name I'm xiaoxio the news chose this time to irritate the both of them the sudden disappearance of mask is undoubtedly a display of irresponsibility mask relied on a large quantity of resources provided by the Federation to grow quickly so he ought to repay the people of the Federation if a Calamity like the recent natural disaster occurs masks should be the first one there to suppress it this is the only way he will ever live up to what the people of the Federation sacrificed for
him yet mask publicly turns his back on the outcome of the righteous trial held by the people of the Federation and with this action throws the sacrifices of the Federation in all of our faces jianlin knew there was so much more you can gain from such a broadcast than the word spewing from the television someone was highly anxious and was becoming seriously Restless at The Disappearance of the Mask she felt the mask was truly something special that the world didn't deserve when he was present the world through all their problems at him when he wasn't
the world treated him like a trash can where all accountability was tossed this army camp is my home and you're welcome to stay while you recover but I'm going to warn you now if you pose any threat to my home I will destroy you if it came to it I'm sure I can break your bones one by one Xiao assured her that she was wrong there was no chance that she would be able to beat him this only excited her she expected him to one day furnish her the opportunity to prove him wrong she had
wasted enough time making sure he was okay it was time she got back to work as she exited the room her teammates went through the usual 50 question routine that their team seemed famous for she responded don't know to each question they threw her away and there are questions where absurd at best but some were truly off the rails this group seemed to be top-notch Gossip Girl Material the only question she had a sure answer to was his name he's shoutshiel putting such a name in the gossip girl's hands was surely a bad idea it
wouldn't be long before this group figured out exactly who Xiao was as they watched their Captain go they knew they would need to be on their best behavior over the next few days while she calmed down there was no way any of them wanted her Fury to blow up in their face has Xiao exited the room all he knew was that John Ling mentioned that she was getting back to work and he would bet all his money which was none by the way that she was headed to a secret Realm he looked to be in
a terrible state but in reality his new heart was pounding with the anticipation of slaughtering monsters he knew in his current state all he needed to do to recover was to absorb the vital energy of the monsters he'd kill one of her teammates tried to warn him that he was being Reckless and besides it was against the rules for him to enter a secret realm without a team the others insisted that he let him go if anyone wanted to deal with the secret Realms then by all means that person was a friend indeed the Supreme
Commander chose the perfect time to appear the stickler for the rules thought the Supreme Commander would be on his side he explained that he felt that most rules only led to the death of people and he felt that rules were best when they served the populace and there's no way you can disagree with me the supreme commander of this army camp the group snapped to attention they were behind him fully the stairs between the Supreme Commander and Xiao surely had a deeper meaning it was highly likely that the commander knew exactly who he was he
ordered John Ling's group to split up two of them should follow Xiao and the rest would continue on with their captain John Ling waited patiently for her team she was eager to get back to the battle the half of the team that would continue accompanying her rush to her side they wasted no time informing her of the Supreme Commander's orders captain that guy you rescued has to have a mental disorder he wanted to head straight back to a secret Realm we tried to stop him but the Supreme Commander overheard our conversation he agreed with him
fully and sent the other two members of our team off to help the fellow the two were deeply worried about the safety of their teammates they had never met someone so desperate to run off to their demise and there was a high chance that he would carry their team down with him jimling reassured them that things weren't as it seemed and that the guy she saved surely had his own intentions there is no way he's that good captain are you listening it didn't take so long to regret going along with the decision of the Supreme
Commander jianlink's teammates were obsessed with their captain the whole way all he heard was our captain has an affinity for lightning such power is passed down through her lineage her father was commanded Young yes the very commander who sacrificed himself in day City our captain became a professional at the age of 12. and it only took her to the age of 13 to rise to the third rank she's the only pupil the Supreme Commander has ever taken under his wing The Mention Of The Supreme Commander was the only thing that changed the conversation they wanted
to know what relationship Xiao had with the Supreme Commander they were perplexed by why their Supreme Commander outfitted Xiao and allowed him to attack a secret Realm Xiao ensured them they had absolutely no connections the two had figured there was no way someone like Xiao had connections with their legendary Commander this set them off on another tangent their Supreme Commander is a living legend he may look blind but it's said that his eyesight is sharper than ordinary people it's like he has echolocation he could see in the dark just like bats officially their Supreme Commander
is in the eighth rank but everyone believes he had reached the ninth rank but he keeps it to himself because the army camp is where he wants to be for someone so powerful to sacrifice everything to remain on the front lines is so honorable their Supreme Commander was an OG he had fought side by side with the mask at the formation of the monster front lines their Supreme Commander was part of the reason why Humanity survived the monster invasion he's one of the reasons the repelling monster frontlines even exist shall remember those days fondly he
couldn't pinpoint exactly how long ago that was at the start of the turnaround of humanity masks stepped on the front lines with over three thousand people who had no idea what he was capable of at that time humanity had long been pushed off the front lines and no human had inhabited the area in ages the group was attacked from all sides the monsters came by land sea and air they even attacked from the underground but the repelling Army refused to surrender none of them had any intentions of retreating over time the group shrunk from their
initial 3 000 people down to two thousand people eventually there were only one thousand of them left through this sacrifice Humanity was shown that they could indeed hold their ground against the monster invasion the soldiers who survived by Sherlock had all grown into powerful professionals those individuals spread across the land each building their own base each of those bases eventually became cities of Their Own until they eventually became the Army Camps that spread across the land to this day and that's exactly how the repelling monster front lines came into existence all gianling's team knew was
the look that the Supreme Commander gave Xiao couldn't be mistaken it had been a while since their weapons had tasted blood but they would follow him to the end of the Earth if they had to shall burst their bubbles he would not be needing their assistance their job was to guard the portal from the outside the looks on their faces cut deep the interior of this particular portal was a dense jungle he wasted no time switching into his monster form he truly preferred the wreak that the monsters put off in such a place he could
lose all control and just kill a group of wolves wasted no time obliging his presence his injuries would restrict the amount of time he could remain as a monster currently three minutes was his max but three minutes would be more than enough to clean up such trash he wasted no time phasing into battle the poor wolf stood no chance before any of them could make a move they were all decapitated as their life energy Rose from their bodies and into shell nothing of them remained but stains on the ground as that energy healed him the
amount of time he could stay in Monster form extended Jian Ling's team had no faith in Shell half of the Gossip Girl quartet was all that was truly needed one speculated that he was already a corpse the other doubted this he suspected that Xiao was wandering around the outer limits of the secret realm avoiding monster contact the other believed there was a high chance he was squatting near the portal waiting for the time to run out in order to escape before the gossip girls could finish their conversation Xiao exited the portal their faces held no
secret of their shock he had exited in mere minutes there was no way he had defeated the boss Xiao reassured them that the boss had been dealt with at least he hoped it was nothing inside felt very boss-like to Shell he presented them with the fangs of the boss they were kinda on the small side so there was a high chance they wouldn't be very useful the two gossiped about how he beat Captain John's fastest time by over 13 minutes there was no way xiao's power was doubled that of their captain just like their Captain
Xiao insisted they move on to the next secret Realm he completed them in record time and before long they were moving to the next one and then the one after that Jam Link's team was not having much luck someone was clearing their portals before they had the chance to enter the group found evidence pointing to the likelihood that they had just missed whoever it was the footprints they found were the same at each location so far that day they had visited five locations and had been disappointed each time the second half of the Gossip Girls
speculated whether it could be xiaoxio's team in the end they ruled them out whoever was doing this this power was on a whole nother level the only explanation left to them was that another Army was invading their territory for another Army to steal resources was unheard of on the surface jamling was calm she even reassured her men that if this was the case it was a good thing someone was able to clear dungeons so fast but on the inside someone was laying down a challenge and once she found out who she would rise to the
occasion as each team returned from their expedition they reported to the management office accounts of their work and handed over any resources obtained this made it drastically easier for the army camp to keep track of what needed to be done and where and allowed them to exchange the merits of their soldiers for tangible items the top reward was a one-on-one training lesson with the Supreme Commander himself it didn't take Jian Ling's group long to figure out who the secret realm thieves were an assistant in the management office was making it hard not to hear that
zhao's team had completed 17 secret Realms in a single outing but zhao's new teammates had come with receipts they were used to dealing with such assistance this assistant was truly determined he was digging deep to make sure the outcome landed on his side of the disagreement the group was sure that being stuck in this office was affecting the assistant's ability to reason with logic so they turned over their bag and the spoils spread out across the counter if you want to further certify their authenticity you're welcome to do just that but the assistant was satisfied
with the evidence presented he was just having a hard time believing anyone had cleared so many secret realms from now on we're calling them dungeons I'm tired of saying secret realms so let's start right now he was just having a hard time believing anyone had cleared so many dungeons they introduced him to the man of the hour the monster who had completed such an extraordinary feat after hearing such a story the assistant offered them a rank 6 dungeon that had been floating around the system it belonged to army camp N1 but they had already lost
two teams and a set of horses to the dungeon because of this that Army Camp's Manpower was essentially depleted shall accepted the request without a second thought the Gossip Girl is about to dig himself a deep hole he made an accusation that Xiao was two times stronger than his captain jungling without realizing she was standing right behind him the assistant knew things were about to get bad he insisted the professional turnaround immediately Jian Ling's team member turned around and instantly began to assure his captain that he was just going with the flow of the conversation
he meant none of it the list of dungeons confirmed that they were the thieves who had cleared all of the captain's dungeons that day she asked Xiao if he was the one responsible he admitted to being the culprit now she knew exactly why he extruded such confidence even while lying on his deathbed Xiao wondered how long it would take her to let this Grudge go she immediately signed up to participate in the rank 6 dungeon she wasted no time turning the event into a challenge she promised Xiao that she would be the one to Kill
the Boss and immediately turned around and left with her half of the team the team member who had put his foot in it was totally excited for the competition that awaited as he handed Xiao the ranked sixth assignment Xiao instantly understood what was going on he knew exactly why the system had sent him here in his other life an incident had happened on the front lines after the Second Great obscenity was defeated unfortunately his serious look and side profile reminded one of the Gossip Girls exactly where he remembered Xiao from the gossip girl wasted no
time doing exactly what he was good at he went to the Supreme Commander and snitched immediately he informed the commander that Xiao was the individual who had slaughtered a whole company in day City the Supreme Commander used logic to refute such claims day city was a long ways away there was no way that the culprit a person in custody had made it to the monster repelling front lines in such a short time he assured the captain that originally he felt the same way he had been observing Xiao all day and while his face had been
destroyed his hair cut and body matched that assailant perfectly he assumed that during the Great obscenity incident Xiao had escaped prison the Gossip Girl knew his story sounded crazy but there was one truth he always believed in under crazy circumstances oftentimes coincidences may seem unbelievable but no matter how unbelievable the conclusion was most of the time that conclusion was the truth the Supreme Commander agreed that the gossip girl's Story made perfect sense he would investigate the situation immediately and at the rank 6 dungeon at the fork in the river he would confront Xiao about such
claims too bad the gossip girl thought this situation would lift him up I really don't see that being the outcome the next day the full group stood in front of the portal at the fork in the river xiam Ling's team begged her to allow them to enter also they used all kinds of dumb logic to accomplish their goals but Jian Ling knew their real goal was to protect her she thought all their excuses were super lame but since her men cared for her so much she gave in but she made it very clear that they
were not to interfere in the competition this was a one-on-one battle and she wouldn't have them getting involved Xiao felt jungling was a bit much her presence was seriously becoming bothersome the Gossip Girl was seriously worried the Supreme Commander had promised to confront Xiao before they entered him not showing up didn't bode well for what awaited them inside this dungeon the dungeon they entered seemed to be a long underground Subway tunnel one of the Gossip Girls put his sensor abilities to work all the readings returned normal so the group shouldn't have any problems proceeding forward
but the others were seriously worried that fighting would be difficult in such a confined space there was nowhere to take cover or Retreat to strategically this dungeon was a bad location something ominous headed their way whatever it was had the group's undivided attention an uncountable number of eyes appeared in the Darkness before long a group of crocodiles appeared rushing forward to each get a piece of the tasting morsels that had entered their domain crocodiles in a location like this made zero sense but regardless they were in for the time of their lives gianling stepped forward
and unleashed the bolt of lightning directly into their midst the beam that shot from her spear was super powerful the tunnel was a perfect conductor for her powers When the Smoke cleared nothing remained she admitted that it was nothing special their surroundings suited her talents perfectly the Gossip Girls wasted no time gloating on the behalf of their captain Xiao Shrugged It Off he had no idea why they felt the need to compete the group had walked for over 10 minutes with no sign of any monsters they were seriously starting to worry two teams were lost
in this dungeon by now they should have encountered their remains Xiao didn't understand how jianling put up with the BS spewing from her teammate's mouth and then it hit him this was most definitely the reason why she left them outside while they were talking one of the Gossip Girls heard something he immediately put his ear to the wall something was headed their way and it was headed their way fast a giant crocodile that could barely fit in the tunnel made its way to them and this mama crocodile wasn't happy some of the Gossip Girls instantly
showed their cowardice they really should have stayed outside couldn't understand why they were scared upon closer examination she realized that the monster had a fear aura but such a trick was useless against her she charged in purple lightning sparking from the tip of her spear shal felt it was time for him to make his presence known he slammed his sword into the ground at that very moment Jian Ling killed her crocodile with a single Blow To The Head her attention immediately turned to Xiao how had she missed such a simple ambush Xiao twisted his sword
and pulled it from the ground the crocodile burst through the ground and its death throws shall watched on as the light faded from its eyes All the gossip girls stood around shocked they had no idea such a cunning monster was Underground the one they saw with their eyes was simply the distraction and if it wasn't for the person who henceforth they will refer to as brother Xiao they would all be dead wanted to know how he discovered the one that was under the ground she had no idea it was there her attention was fully on
the one she could see she knew that if it wasn't for his actions all her subordinates would have perished shall explained that it was exactly like she believed the ground was shaking so he assumed there had to be a second one underground headed their way they were in a deep quiet isolated Subterranean dungeon it was only natural that you would have monsters attacking you from Below the sensor type Gossip Girl knew this to be impossible he had had his whole body pressed up against the wall and could barely sense the second one and on top
of that Xiao had pinpointed its weak point and had executed a Flawless attack he knew that only a genius was capable of such Xiao racked his brain for an explanation for his actions but the explanation he had would be too complicated the truth was that the frequency generated by this kind of underground vibration is far more distinguishable than the one provoked by a demon god moving in the blink of an eye which is capable of tearing through space but there was no way he would be feeding them that line the bald-headed Gossip Girl could care
less they had defeated the two bosses and he was simply ecstatic their actions had saved the lives of who knows how many countless teams that would have perished in this death trap but he was wrong jiomling explained that these two most definitely weren't the boss there was no Treasure Chest around and the teleportation array hadn't reopened all of them instantly understood the gravity of their situation if the two monsters that had just attacked them wasn't the boss what exactly did they face deeper in this dungeon gianling ordered her men to stay close under no circumstances
were they to fall behind all of them had long faces they really hated burdening their captain as she walked away she reassured them that they should straighten up this is only what you expected when one was part of a team her words alone deep in all of their bonds at the end of the tunnel was an ominous door nothing good could be awaiting them on the other side jianling ordered that her and Xiao would enter and her team would wait outside all of them instantly snapped to attention at this order none of them was interested
in holding their captain or their new brother Xiao back they made their Captain promise that she would come back safely she Shrugged them off like she usually did and her and Xiao began to open the door dust obscured the entrance as the two walked in as soon as the two stepped through the door slammed down behind them they entered the tunnel wondering what foe awaited them ahead they wouldn't have to wait long something with a light tread approached them a humanoid crocodile stepped forward they both knew that the Mora monster appeared as a human the
higher the danger would be the crocodilian wanted to fight and he wanted to fight now jianling wouldn't disappoint she headed in at a full charge Lightning Spear at the ready she hated being underestimated and for that this crocodilian would pay Xiao was impressed at that angle if the boss bit down on her spirit would be pierced through that was unless it used his hands to deflect the blow and to John Link's surprise the crocodilian grabbed her spear out the air and slung her against the ground Xiao was impressed the crocodilian had one-upped his expectation John
Ling was forced to use her Ace in the Hole she pointed her pistol at her foe's face and released the lightning beam that removed half of the creature's entire upper half but the situation was about to get very interesting but before that shell wondered if her fighting style always involves such risks she explained that there was no other way to gain results in life he agreed shocking her for most people would preach on about how life was sacred and you should cherish it but upon examining the corpse jungling discovered that the humanoid monster was actually
a human the person inside the Beast was named Christian he was a level six professional stationed in the N1 army camp his team was the first to disappear how in the world did he become a monster this dungeon was a nightmare and she was determined to get to the bottom of it a group of what she could only assume was other professionals headed in their Direction they spewed cool words about how jianling would take the ones on the left and Xiao replied leave the ones on the right to me the two dashed forward ready to
put a beat down on their foes jumbling leaped into the air building the momentum needed to come crashing to the ground with a devastating blow that caused all the crocodilians to lose their footing she immediately followed up with a devastating Spin Attack that took four of her foes out with a single hit a crocodilian used this opportunity to launch a sneak attack in her blind spot but John Ling was no slouch she blocked his blow and stabbed him through the gut as purple lightning bolts rained down all around her her attacks were seriously devastating the
former human professionals had gained great strength and Agility from becoming monsters but the side effect of losing their intelligence countered all gains in the end they were just harmless monsters jumbling noticed that Xiao was taking just a tad bit longer to finish his enemies as she glanced over he was taking the head off of one particular crocodilian while dodging a blow from behind from another he wasted no time finishing his second foe as he turned around and Unleashed a barrage to bring his battle to a conclusion Jian Ling was meticulous when it came to her
job she had verified that every single one of the crocodilians they had just slain were each one of the missing professionals from army camp and won the remaining crocodilians guarded an altar their ancient and Primal instincts urging them to protect the Sacred Space jamling understood that there was a high chance that they were going to summon something deadly the crocodilians wasted no time praying to whatever God they saw fit to worship jumbling wondered if it was worth it to let them finish summoning whatever creature they were trying to bring forth but as the ominous Aura
radiated from the center pillar of the altar the eyes that appeared in the air made her decision for her she hated anything that caused her to hesitate so she dashed forward launching her spear through the crocodilians causing the ritual to end Xiao knew exactly what the presence was for after all it had eyes only for him the crocodilians were trying to summon a demon god from the void shall was sure you could call them old acquaintances or maybe since this was a different life they had never met the two groups Rendezvous outside the dungeon the
Gossip Girls wasted no time praising their captain but now they had praise for their new big brother shall also they were truly the cheerleaders they feared they would become the group wanted to know how big the boss was it a fearsome foe but their Captain shot them down she had no time for Idol chatter getting the new Intel back to the Supreme Commander as fast as possible was of the utmost priority her team was seriously puzzled by what could have happened inside the dungeon the Supreme Commander wasted no time making his presence known the snitch
was ecstatic this was going to propel him to Greater Heights but the Newbie wondered why the Supreme Commander had brought a full law enforcement team he reassured all of them that this situation only involves Xiao or should I call you the perpetrator of the day City Massacre the Gossip Girls instantly jumped to their 50 questions a minute routine you're joking right why would someone caught in day City beyond the repelling monster front Big Brother Xiao doesn't seem like that type of person you would think a snitch would know the perfect time to reveal themselves but
it seemed this one was oblivious his captain looked at him with disdain shall wasted no time admitting it was that very same shoutshiel and the snitch felt Vindicated his analysis was spot on wanted to know if their intentions were to arrest him and transport him to Star City the Supreme Commander explained that the federal laws insisted that he arrests any fugitives on the Run no matter where they may be found and the atonement Camp was the only place suitable to keep a criminal that was all according to federal law but none of those laws had
anything to do with army camp N3 the law enforcement agents were stunned the Supreme Commander went on to explain that in the same circumstances he would have likely made the same choices actually that's not true I would have burned that entire building to the ground he went on to explain that if everyone was like Xiao this world would be a much better place and that this was the end of this situation and no one would speak of it father otherwise he would have to invite shout to leave his army camp jumbling asked her Mentor for
a sidebar her teammates wondered what was going on they had never seen her so anxious they could ask Xiao but after what one of their teammates had just done to him they thought better of it jamling explained what had come of all the team members who had perished in the dungeon and above all else she relayed the information about the altar with the ominous presence she inquired whether the Supreme Commander knew anything about such altars he explained that it was the altar of a monster God she was stun locked she had no idea monsters had
gods there are countless teams just like yours on the repelling monster front who clear out dungeons every single day and tens of thousands of dungeons are cleared out every single year and with all that Humanity hasn't made a single bit of Headway we're nowhere near ending this conflict do you ever wonder why that is it's because of the source our actions are simply a waste of time we are only dealing with the symptoms of the issue if we continue to blindly throw ourselves at the dungeons nothing is truly ever going to change Humanity needs to
focus on extinguishing the source of this problem or this war will rage on forever and the monster gods yes journaling the monster Gods is the source or more precise they're the owners of the altars you saw in the dungeon the monster gods are powerful beings who live outside this world the calamities paled in comparison these beings sit in the infinite World and call themselves gods some believe the reason the repelling monster front has so many dungeons is because it's closer than any other point on Earth to the location where the monster Gods reside a tiny
bit of their Aura is all it takes for dungeons to endlessly appear in our world and the great calamities are nothing more than a fart on the wind for them if all this was true jungling didn't understand what was the point of all her toiling and hard work but don't think humanity is a helpless babe in their presence we've killed a fair number of Gods or should I say one particular man has killed his fair share of Gods jumbling knew her Mentor was referring to mask finding an altar is the first signs that a wave
of Destruction is headed our way a literal Sea of Monsters I hope I'm wrong but such signs foreshadow a monster God Awakening from its slumbers a Sea of Monsters will cause all dungeons to burst and from them a wave of monsters will spread out in a blank of an eye all the progress that Humanity has made will be washed away the last time such an event happened mask was here to limit the toll Humanity had to pay without him who knows how big a price the repelling monster front would have to pay going forward Humanity's
strategy would change the professionals would stop clearing out dungeons in preparation for what was to come and the Supreme Commander was worried exactly what that would be this time around he ordered Jim link to rest she couldn't continue on like a machine after all in these times any day could be her last John link tried to explain to her master that she didn't need rest but he changed the subject the Supreme Commander ordered them to take Xiao with them as they delivered the news throughout the Army Camps of the repelling monster front with a smile
on his face the Supreme Commander ordered that since shall may be recognized that they should prepare a disguise to cover his features find him a mask to wear this old man truly thinks he's funny an armored train raced across the desert it was moving so fast I don't believe anything would be wise to get in its path in the back of the train Captain jungling was busy polishing her staff while practicing the art of meditation while her teammates were playing an intense game of cards Xiao was watching them all while looking like someone familiar indeed
the bulb-headed Gossip Girl ensured Xiao that these trains were their most reliable source of transportation they may look funny and maybe nowhere as fast as trains on Rails but they're capable of passing through forests and mountains if there's not a road it'll just make one the other Gossip Girls chastised him four he says this line to every new person that rides the trains they will be at army camp and two very soon the new member of their team didn't understand why they couldn't just use the radio to spread the news why was this information so
important they had to use something as backwards as hand delivering a letter the other Gossip Girl explaining that the documents were most likely top secret and no one needed them falling into the enemy's hands the new recruit thought this was bogus everyone was acting like the monsters could listen in on their radio conversations or Worse spy on them over the internet they all heard something approaching at a fast rate the ball-headed Gossip Girl spotted it first and informed everyone that there was an armored vehicle approaching to their right upon further examination a group of monsters
were chasing them down why in the world was army camp M2 not capable of clearing the dungeon were they really in such a state that their dungeons were releasing monsters into the world in secret Realms across the world a universal rule dictates that if a dungeon remains uncleared within the allotted time the imprisoned monsters within will shatter their seals and Break Free this rule applies to various Realms from the repelling monster front areas inhabited by humans the dire consequences of failing to clear the dungeons in a timely manner became evident a century ago in the
human world as dungeons emerged throughout the globe the failure to eradicate them swiftly resulted in a rapid deterioration of their influence leading to their abrupt collapse this cataclysmic event caused countries religions entire regions and governing bodies to fade into mere Whispers of History leaving behind nothing but remnants of their existence the armored vehicle sped along as the archer in the back endlessly shot down wolves that were pursuing them his current count was over 30. he couldn't understand what the leaders of the Federation were up to countless monsters had escaped and they've yet to receive reinforcements
he had been so desperate to kill the wolves that he wasn't paying attention to his ammo supply as soon as he was out a wolf took the opportunity to take him down just as he knew he was surely dead something knocked the wolf out of the sky they were being saved an armored train was coming to their rescue but a few bullets went astray taking out their tires and flipping them just as a giant bird was launching an attack from the sky the professionals on the train wasted no time destroying the bird of prey the
soldiers of army camp and two were shocked someone had came to their rescue as the trains steamed on ahead a side door opened and our professionals rushed out to assist the downed M2 soldiers the M2 army soldiers won them away there were too many monsters for any one group to take out but this group would never back down from a challenge they rushed in and began decimating their foes it didn't matter how many came they would cut them all down from watching them fight the soldiers realized that this group had Unstoppable leaders before long the
battle was over and it was time to carefully process the scene the wounded needed to be taken care of and the resources needed to be harvested the soldiers made their way over to their saviors they knew exactly who they were dealing with as the captain's reputation preceded her controlling lightning using the Lance and wearing a mask were all signs they were in the presence of greatness but they didn't know that army camp and three had another super powerful professional Xiao ignored them but the captain's teammates jumped to the occasion to introduce him his name is
xiaochio and he's the newest member of our army well we're very thankful for his assistance the group wanted a rundown on what exactly was going on in this part of the front lines their group originally had 15 team members but they were all that was left they were following orders to clear out Dungeons and they didn't expect to run into monsters their story didn't sound good enough so they decided to be honest with their saviors something is going on with the surveillance of the dungeons we don't know how but a lot of them broke without
anyone knowing we weren't the only team to leave our city our camp is truly in trouble if those other teams ran into hardships similar to ours jumbling requested more information about the dungeon seals being broken as I'm sure you are aware of the rate in which dungeons have been appearing has increased significantly recently and it seems some of those dungeons have already failed truthfully we didn't know that a few of the dungeons weren't very stable at all but for so many to break so soon it's just too much for us this turned Jian Ling's mind
towards the Sea of Monsters was this truly a precursor to that event they had only visited five camps so far and jiangling couldn't believe that things had deteriorated to this degree Captain jianling had a bad feeling about army camp M2 they needed to get their ASAP at army camp M2 two Lookouts were discussing the going ons of the camp in the last two days over 30 teams had left but so far only 10 had returned everyone was truly worried for the safety of their comrades everyone knew there was a high possibility that they might be
in the next group to head out that would never return their conversation would have to be put on hold for a later time as it seemed the camp had company inbound but as the lookout was signaling the train the unthinkable happened the train plowed headlong through the wall of the army camp a dead professional was launched out the side dagger still in hand a locust humanoid emerged army camp and two was being invaded a horde of beasts rushed out of the cargo hold and immediately attacked anything in sight it was literally a plague of locusts
before long the army camp was being set Ablaze the locusts were everywhere the leader stood on the train and watched the city burn around him the whole time chirping orders to the others before they had even arrived Captain jungling suspected the camp was under attack it truly didn't make sense it had been a long time since monsters were so bold that they attacked Army Camps directly but the times were changing and they were changing fast she feared that the Camp's Commander had already succumbed to the horde of dungeon monsters in these times a seventh ranked
professional would hardly be enough even a ninth ranked professional might even succumb to such pressure to her displeasure she wasn't proved wrong the camp was already in the process of burning SOS signals were being sent out in all Direction they needed help and they needed it bad but before the train could get them into range the news of the death of their commander and the fall of army camp M2 was broadcasted over the radio the camp was burning at an alarming rate who would have thought army camp M2 would fall the captain knew that this
wouldn't be the last army camp to fall she ordered them not to change their Direction and to keep moving towards the camp in times like this rescuing as many people as possible was of the utmost importance the M2 Soldier couldn't believe this was happening their problems started the day those bigwigs decided to disregard everything that the masks did for us forcing him to retreat to who knows where these monsters are truly acting like the mask isn't here to hold them accountable everybody on the train had a long face the bald-headed team member felt it was
his responsibility to lighten the mood he had noticed something real cool jou's build and silhouette was very close to that of the Mask and with the mask on it was uncanny how much he resembled the legend now that you mention it his silhouette isn't the only thing that looks like the mask you're right he's literally the mass doppelganger they asked Xiao if he was truly the mask without a hint that he wasn't being serious he replied yes I am the mask for a moment everyone Stood Still and then they all laughed at such a great
joke they asked for his autographed and made him promise he would meet their family members the captain was the only one that truly believed his words she insisted they would have to see if he truly lived up to his name as they got closer the culprits of the downfall of the army camp came into view a swarm of locusts were headed in their Direction they were chasing a group of survivors pleading for help the captain wasted no time lighting them up with her pistol and without a second thought she launched her javelin it pierced through
a few of them before it exploded taking out so many the rest retreated the soldier sat down exhausted and relieved they immediately showed their gratitude if it wasn't for this group of professionals there was no doubt they would be dead the captain still held on to a sliver of Hope for the army camp she asked the group of survivors for an update on its situation they assured her that the camp was completely gone everyone there was dead even their Commander army camp M2 now belongs to the monsters he told them about a locust just like
the ones in the sky but this particular one was humanoid it literally walked up to their commander and ripped his head off and after that it held on to his head like it was a trophy the lead Soldier begged them not to head any closer to the camp the commander knew something was off the moment she laid eyes on these three for starters what soldiers fall to the ground the moment they're saved while civilians still stood on their feet as he continued to inch closer to persuade her not to go she pointed her spear towards
his neck she explained that this group were convicts from the atonement camp the three were shocked her teammates tried to talk her down at a time like this what did that truly matter they continued to lie directly to her face but she explained that she knew that they had killed the professionals escorting this group of civilians for one thing none of them could even hold their weapons appropriately the leader was missing the tip of his ear it was most definitely a bullet wound he received while killing the true escorts at this the two retards in
the back attacked they lost their heads before getting in range you think the leader had since and was running away but instead he was looking for hostages to save his life so shall parted him of his head the M2 soldiers were Amazed by her deduction skills they had wondered why they didn't recognize the three it was time for them to head out there was truly nothing left for them to gain by heading to the camp but it turns out they had a bigger problem the Train's boiler had burned out they had stressed it too much
to reach this location as fast as possible one of the civilians raised her hand she could fix that problem in a jiffy and she was true to her word in a blink of the eye she had the train back up and running there was no doubt they had a high level mechanic on their hands but she explained that she was only a student and all of them were the true high level individuals here her name was Evelyn Clark and she strived to become the best mechanic ever but if it wasn't for the skills of Evelyn
Clark they wouldn't be back on course hurling across the sand Bound for their next destination if only the group could come to a decision on exactly where that was the first step in the process of deciding where to go next had already been completed everyone had fully given up on Army Camp M2 there was nothing left there but death the more distance they put between them and at the safer they all would be they had two choices moving forward their best options were army camp south 4 or y5 the closest Camp also turned out to
be the one with the higher risk the survivors on board the train insisted the monsters had launched their attack from the direction of army camp L4 in order for them to make it to that particular army camp they will have to pass near the north gate of M2 such a risk was just too high so the consensus was instead of traveling two days to L4 they would attempt a five-day journey to y5 Xiao was fully against this plan he insisted they should head to army camp L4 but the person who made the final decision turned
out to be none other than Evelyn Clark she informed everybody that the train only had enough fuel to travel for two days and with that their destination was determined and they would have to take the risk that came with it for running out of gas on the repelling monster front was tantamount to death Shaw was waiting for the questioning Brigade to come interrogate him they would want to know why he insisted that they steer clear of y5 jumbling arrived precisely as he had foreseen Xiao was a warrior not a mechanic so being aware of the
Train's fuel shortage was beyond his scope John Ling yearned to understand the rationale behind his choice according to his memories from his previous life the Y area marked the initial downfall followed by vast stretches of land progressively disconnecting from the outside world one after another despite his Swift arrival he couldn't rescue the Y area for it had already succumbed entirely transforming into a nightmarish playground but seeing as he wasn't interested in answering she changed the subject her father had been his arresting officer she was truly curious what type of person he was righteous he was
truly righteous his words aligned perfectly with what she'd been able to piece together about him army camp M2 was a disaster Zone the locusts wasted no time burning it to the ground and consuming any and everything that was edible the humanoid locusts underlings were Relentless if he didn't teach them manners who would as he read his paper signs of humanity came to his ear Captain jungling's train was not doing a good job being discreet the Locust King wasted no time he charged his body a blue glow radiated across his entire being and with all his
might he shot into the air he couldn't stand the existence of humans and would destroy them at all costs the full Swan took to the air leaving behind the wreckage of army camp M2 all the civilians were worried this would be the most crucial point in their Journey the professionals did their best to reassure them but truthfully it was little comfort the locust swarm was so dense that one of the professionals mistook it for smoke rising from the destroyed city of M2 but the civilians had seen that swarm firsthand and to their eyes it was
nothing but death and worst of all the Locust King was among them Captain jumbling knew her skill level in and out and if n2's Commander couldn't take down this monster what exactly was her chances if they didn't take this thing down no one would be making it safely to army camp L4 as she stand out towards the Locust King hatred for all monsters radiated throughout her body but she wasn't the only one who felt such hatred the Locust King was disgusted by the mere side of humans and would destroy all of humanity he reached out
to one of his underlings and relieved it of his leg he wasted no time locking onto his Target and releasing his makeshift missile his aim was true as the legs slammed into the train forcing it to lose control as it headed towards a cliff as the civilians were tossed around the train cart Evelyn Clark was ejected into the open but Xiao and xianling followed behind rescuing her as they turned their sight to stopping the train from plummeting over the cliff the two rushed to the train and within seconds had corrected its trajectory and forced it
to a complete stop Evelyn clock was amazed a ten thousand ton armored train hurling towards the edge of a cliff was turned around by two individuals got to work she first ordered everyone to defend the train at all costs next she ordered Evelyn Clark to get the train back up and operating as soon as possible she hated situations like this but the reality was the lives of civilians were insignificant if they lost the armored train they would be stuck on the repelling monster front so the train was their top priority it came before anyone else's
well-being she stood there resolutely waiting for the destruction that was headed their way she threw her spear into the midst of the Swarm lightning arcing from it as it hurtled across the sky when it reached its Pinnacle it exploded like a firework sending its Sparks in all directions not a single Locus within its radius was Left Alive she shot into the sky retrieving her Spear and began to decimate anything in her path the soldiers on the ground stirred on hoping the captain had what it took to save them from their plight the soldiers of army
camp and two were in shock of her pure skill their Commander would have had a hard time producing half the damage she was forcing upon the swarm of locusts the bald-headed Gossip Girl wasted no time reinforcing the legend that was his captain he insisted that his captain was truly ranked six but she wouldn't be that way for long but it was time for them to put their Idol chatter to an end as a few fish had escaped the net and it was time for them to get to work the Locust King starred out across the
battlefield relishing in the sight of Destruction it was now time for the battle to start internist jumbling blasted from the ground and forced her spear through the center of the Locust head its speed was so fast that she simply phased through what she perceived to be her Target was simply an afterimage it left in its wake the Locust King proceeded to demonstrate exactly what she was up against finishing with a blow that sent her flying to the ground she crashed into the ground with such force that a crater rippled outwards from her point of contact
the Locust King wasted no time diving in to finish what he started his hands shifted into a side as he attacked with full force jammling raised her spear in time to block the blow but it wasn't enough as his sickle slipped across her spear inching its way towards her skull fast Duds could be heard headed in her Direction shall burst in his impact so great it sent the Locust King flying through a Grove of trees he reassured xiaomling that he had everything under control and that she should head back to protect the train there was
no way she would ever forgive him if he died on her the Locust King slid to a stop in the center of the Grove as Xiao casually walked into the clearing the Locust King informed him that he radiated their scent Xiao informed him that he was either a human nor a monster but he guessed it would be more fitting to use the term monster when describing him Shaw was seriously tired of being trapped in his human form both him and bloodraven had been longing to unleash their true power presence struck fear in the heart of
the Locust King that fear forced it to initiate the first attack the ground rippled from the impact forcing boldus up and outwards When the Smoke cleared Xiao had simply ate the blow he started to worry that his opponent wouldn't live up to his expectations the Locust King stepped back and launched a second attack in his Direction shal caught the blow in his hand and informed the Locust King that it was his turn to do the punching the Locust King was infuriated by this human posing as a monster he had no choice but to wipe this
gum from the face of existence blood Raven smashed into his face destroying the Locust King once and for all shall truly wish the battle could have went on longer it had been so long since he was last able to just let loose but sometimes that's just the way things are a god-chosen monster has been defeated this monster is a demon god treacherous wisdom the Monster Blade bloodraven has absorbed the blood of the god treacherous wisdom beginning the Monster Blade bloodraven's second evolution has the energy of a demon god rose up and swirled around bloodraven an
ominous presence stared out longingly from within the blade the Monster Blade blood Raven has gained the new ability Crow tide ability description the Monster Blade blood Raven can morph into a sea of crows that pour towards surrounding enemies sucking them dry of blood shall was truly impressed for blood Raven had taken another step on the path to power back at the train the locust swarm had been completely decimated their counter-attack had been so successful there was not a single civilian casualty but jungling's team knew their Captain very well she was truly worried about the safety
of Xiao jumbling really hoped he had not bitten off more than he could chew as she was regretting her decision to abandon his side Xiao casually walked from The Grove no worse for where everyone was truly ecstatic bald-headed Gossip Girl rushed to his side he wanted to know if Xiao had succeeded in destroying the monster Xiao had just defeated a Monster who had easily took out a seventh ranked Commander this could only mean that Xiao strength exceeded that of the seventh rank with the destruction of the Swarm the train could safely resume its journey to
army camp L4 the mood aboard the train had greatly improved but an air of uncertainty lingered as the future was still undetermined the two strongest professionals set apart from the other passengers jumbling thanked Xiao for saving her life but he Shrugged it off for it wasn't a big deal she noticed the similarity between him and the legendary mask both of them grew by Leaps and Bounds leaving normal humans behind as they shocked to the Stars Evelyn Clark reported the bad news that the radio equipment was malfunctioning so far they hadn't been able to get in
contact with the closest Army Camp Captain Jang insisted she stopped beating around the bush and give them the full story she believes something or someone was blocking their radio signals not only were they not able to send signals they couldn't receive them either they were now isolated from all of humanity an island floating in an ocean of nothingness xiao's system was giving him a daunting task within reward that was equally frightening Monster's path main task a Sea of Monsters task description The Descent of an unprecedented Sea of Monsters is imminent on the repelling monster front
every last corner will be scorched by a war led by the monster God himself task objective exterminate the Sea of Monsters task reward partial Evolution into a demon god shall wasn't sure such a path was something he was interested in taking as the next day rolled around the train finally received a transmission from army camp L4 Evelyn Clark was sure there wasn't a signal yesterday Captain Jiang believed her and felt something nefarious was afoot Evelyn Clark wasted no time explaining their situation to the army camp they had received her signal and advised them to make
their way to army Campbell for post haste and they would receive protection upon arrival the news was a blessing to the train as their fuel supply was severely depleted they would have no problems refueling and deciding their next course of action moving forward everybody aboard the train was ecstatic L4 will be a safe place for all the civilians to start a new life and the soldiers were very much looking forward to some RNR but before their new hopes and dreams could settle in another message came over the radio receiver it informed them not to trust
Army Campbell for and that the army camp had been taken over by monsters everyone was stunned by this up until now none of them had ever seen an intelligent monster but the captain disagreed in recent days she has seen plenty of signs of this the crocodiles and their ritual totem and the Locust King's Trojan Horse at the very least those were two signs of monsters imitating humans the captain took over the radio she insisted the whistleblowers give them more information about the army camp they explained that they were survivors of army camp L4 two days
ago a large number of Monsters overran the camp the monsters that attacked them were intelligent and used trickery and deception to enter the camp because of this their commander and 3 8 ranked professionals all perished they insisted that they should not believe army camp L4 they had set up a temporary Camp Northeast of the army camp and passed over the coordinates so the train team could reach them after such news the captain felt it best not to talk over the radio any longer and the choice was most definitely a good one seeing as how whoever
on the other end was desperate to get in contact with them they continued to transmit over and over begging for them to respond this was a tough decision there was no way of knowing who was telling the truth everybody on board the train had their own opinion some believe the temporary Camp story and some believe they were the monsters in the end the captain asked jows for his thoughts his opinion was they were both lying and there would be a trap at either location in his past existence the rapid downfall of the repelling monster front
was attributed to certain monsters being enlightened by the deceptive wisdom of the demon god this Enlightenment bestowed upon them intelligence and cunning that rival those of human Warriors in every aspect Guided by The Crafty God's chosen ones the monsters Unleashed havoc they adeptly disguised themselves deceived humans and even enslaved them turning them into their obedient followers and compelling them to commit countless crimes humans who had never regarded monsters as intellectual equals were taken by surprise and gradually lost control over vast territories land after land slipped from their grasp leaving them at a disadvantage Xiao didn't
understand what was going on the circumstances of events in this life were starting to deviate severely from that of his last in his previous life Army Campbell Force should have held on a bit longer in that life they were a beacon for all of humanity there could only be one reason for this because Xiao had chosen the monster's path he currently wasn't in the void putting a beat down on the demon god treacherous wisdom which meant it had extra resources to spare drastically escalating the circumstances of this war for a second he doubted himself where
his actions making things worse but then he remembered the end of his previous life nothing he did could make anything worse than the extinction of all of humanity being short on fuel forced the occupants of the train to make hard decisions in this case the group was forced to Rendezvous with the survivors at the temporary camp to everyone's surprise the campsite was indeed built by humans and the survivors of Camp L4 came out to greet them but that's where all the good news ended the monsters had turned the whole Camp into their puppets they had
been given a deal they didn't refuse if they turn traitor Against Humanity they would be allowed their freedom the group lured unsuspecting Travelers into their trap and once captured they would be delivered on a silver platter to army camp L4 unlucky for them Xiao didn't tolerate Traders he Unleashed bloodraven's new attack soldering them before they can even move they cleared out the entire camp but in the process lost four members and Evelyn Clark took it to heart if she hadn't brought them along to help her collect Goods they would still be alive none of their
words could stop her from holding this guilt in her heart we had heard stories of humanity turning against each other during the dark period resorting to deceit and conspiracy in order to survive yet I never imagined that I would personally experience such a day after Gathering supplies from the campsite we held a discussion and ultimately decided to make our way towards army camp A1 it served as a fortified Corps of the repelling monster front surpassing the strength of army camp L4 and being akin to the front's capital if even this Camp were to fall it
would signify the dissolution of the repelling monster front altogether another cause for concern lies in the situation of my mentor and army camp hashtag based on our prior experiences army camp hashtags should be relatively distant and Untouched by the encroaching Sea of Monsters but who truly knows for certain the hashtags are there to protect the identity of her camp in case she's captured jamling wouldn't want sensitive information from her logs falling into the wrong hands treacherous wisdom was weak in comparison to the other monster gods but he made up for this weakness with his intelligence
its goals from the very start were to use Humanity's methods of treachery to extinguish Humanity worse than that was Xiao had no way of destroying treacherous wisdom for he was a Master of Disguise he could literally kill every other monster God and treacherous wisdom would still not show his face bloodraven's growth was causing him to garnish attention from others John Ling's attention was caught by the Magnificent blade and she wished to know its name shall explained that its name was flying Raven and it was a gift from a friend jamling exclaimed if only she had
friends like that Xiao wondered if Yan sisi would still think of him as a friend after killing her sister Xiao had experienced countless situations where his strength had caused him to betray his friends in the pursuit of Justice it was best for him not to let his mind Linger on such subjects as you were rarely ever able to change their outcomes the situation in the repelling monster front was drastically deteriorating as they traveled to army camp a one they were flanked on all sides by beasts headed in the same direction on one side a horde
of walking beasts of every species could be seen trudging through the desert and the sky was filled with countless flying mobs but luckily a heavily armored tank Brigade was headed in for Action Army Camp a one had a seriously Unstoppable defense the tanks wasted no time dealing with the monsters in a matter of minutes the threat had been neutralized the train was brought to a stop by a group of armored Humvees the bald-headed Gossip Girl wasted no time presenting identification but none of that matter in the current state of the world with treachery at its
highest trust was a hard-earned commodity the group from N3 was shocked they hadn't expected this at all a soldier from a one with a giant Bastard Sword on his back insists that they were traitors they tried to explain that they had gone through so much to get to army camp A1 but after all that's exactly what a Trader would say it turns out the circumstances were just bad since they were being flanked by monsters on both sides they obviously looked like traitors but luckily someone was there who recognized them and was willing to vouch for
their presence the Supreme Commander looked like he had been to the end of the world and back and on that Journey he had lost a lot of people who were dear to him basically he did not look good at all the group was transported to army camp a once quarantine facility the Army Camp's prison was literally given a fancy new name the prison slash Redemption Camp had been modified to secretly store suspected human Traders from the outside world the facility was quietly quarantining a large number of outside survivors in army camp a one's eyes if
they are able to filter out the Traders amongst the true comrades imprisoning their future friends would still be worth it the Supreme Commander spoke to gel link through prison bars he relieved her of her major worries informing her that N3 had evacuated to a one before the Sea of Monsters began her home was an empty Shelf full of traps just in case the monsters tried to make it their home the situation on the front lines had to be in a dire state for the higher ups to surrender countless cities such a choice had to come
at an astronomical cost I hear on your way here you ran into a group of human Traders A1 has been systematically eradicating such groups but I hope you understand because they have seen such a large number of Traders Army Camps that it's only logical that you traveling in front of a horde of monsters is highly suspicious hence the reason why they have taken the precautions of putting you in here jumbling brought up the subject of the intelligent monsters and her Mentor explained that that subject will lead us to monster Gods again and since he's already
told her everything he knew about monster Gods there was no point in continuing the conversation but he believed she knew the answer she was looking for already as the Supreme Commander departed he reassured her that the army camp had a severe shortage of manpower so it wouldn't be long before she was freed and sent out on the Battlefront to protect Humanity jamling wondered what he meant by she might already know the answers she was seeking Xiao was spending his time in prison wisely he was coming up with a plan that would change the course of
the sea of monster incident in the favor of humanity so far his plan involved in an active volcano that was currently being used as a hot spring but the TV interrupted his planning what looked to be a bunch of high-level Traders were having a news conference about how they had come to the front lines personally to orchestrate the turnaround of humanity they were reassuring the fighters on the front line that the Federation had their back and was here to lead them to Salvation jiangling couldn't understand why the Federation felt the need to strut around in
everyone's face the only good thing about these Federation members were that the weakest among them was rank 8. so if they would roll up their sleeves and get on the battlefield they truly would be useful but she was sure that would never happen within hours the two of them were freed from prison their quarantine had been canceled and they were officially being given a full Squadron to command time was of the essence their weapons were immediately returned to them they were being deployed before the day was out Xiao really didn't care what the reasoning behind
this turn of events was he had a plan to orchestrate and there were things he needed to complete it first he asked for the assistance of the civilian Evelyn clock his Handler had no problem with this job was to equip them and get them on the battlefield as soon as possible to no one's surprise they were being handed a group of prisoners as their Squadron turns out the Redemption Camp was the only men left who could be assigned all the professionals had long departed for the battlefield the Handler tried to insist that there being over
100 of them was a good thing they could command them as if they were sending Lambs to the slaughter but jiangling didn't see this as a crutch to her it was a bane the Redemption Squadron had little fighting ability and zero morale and none of them had the ability to follow orders having so many of them would only lead to chaos the Handler being used to solving problems furnished her with a box of walkie-talkies like that was going to whip the prisoners into shape while John Ling complained Xiao loved the idea the walkie-talkies were exactly
what he needed for his plan to come to fruition the handler was happy that someone understood him because of the strength the two wielded they were being given privilege the privilege to choose where they died the Handler explained that the Northwest perimeter of the front lines were in such a bad state that the higher ups had already conceded it to the monsters their privilege allowed them to pick an area far from that Battlefront with a smile on his face Xiao announced that that sounded like a good place to start zhao's actions had confused the Handler
he figured he should explain in more detail what was happening in that region of the monster front you're requesting to be sent to the most dangerous area in the repelling monster front that area is being controlled by monsters on three sides and humanity is barely hanging on to the repelling monster front side shall explained that that was exactly the reason why he chose it but in exchange for them going there he was going to need a few extra items he was going to need 20 military maps of the area and a very particular number of
miniature nuclear devices he almost forgot he also needed tripwires gentling back zhao's decision she inherently understood exactly what zhao's plans were the Handler had warned them that he wouldn't be taking any responsibility for their failures he promised to do his best to get the items requested and if they were all done here they should take their teams and head to the transport Fleet they will be sent off to the Battlefront immediately zhao's plan was simple he needed willing soldiers and the best way to turn the trash he received into what he needed was to forge
it in the pits of hell by dropping the prisoners into an unwinnable situation they'll be forced to do exactly what he said to survive and if they succeeded with the missions he set for them a snowball effect would happen and he would be left with willing soldiers jumbling wondered if such a plan would truly work or would they be left in an unwinnable situation with death as their only option two hours later they had reached their destination and Evelyn Clark knew this was going to be the day she died how would a bunch of prisoners
survive let alone put up a fight in the fiercest area of the front lines the group didn't even have reinforcements from the outside world zhao's simple answer to her was if you never take the first step you're already a failure Evelyn would rather be a failure and Alive than dead any day of the week regardless of her feelings about the situation she shouldn't have any problems accomplishing the tasks that he set for her as he passed her the map with the locations that he needed her to install the Tactical nukes he realized it was time
for the pre-show to begin the prisoners were done taking orders and it was time for their liberation Shaw walked up to them and assured them that the looks in their eyes pleased him the biggest one among them readied his gun and stepped up to Xiao determined to put him in his place he insisted they weren't in the prison anymore and things were going to change they had no problems letting Xiao go but they would be keeping the two sweet things over there too bad he had chosen the wrong person to look down on jumbling disappeared
before his eyes and when she reappeared her spear had been plunged into his chest then she asked Xiao if he objected to her killing just one he had no objections but next time she should ask permission instead of forgiveness she slung the trash off her Spear and put on a display so the others knew what they were dealing with her lightning show had the intended effect of calming them all down Xiao explained they had two choices they could either follow his orders or die for their sakes he warned them that escaping was not a wise
option they were surrounded on three sides by monsters and on the fourth side was the Federation and coincidentally at that moment circumstances sealed the deal a battle took place where the humans were wiped away in an instance things had changed now they were surrounded on all four sides by monsters this was officially a suicide mission the group of prisoners whined about their circumstances which was perfect they only had one choice which was to follow his orders and create a miracle which would allow them to see another day while the prisoners stood there stunned Shaw went
ahead with explaining the operation 10 people to a group each group gets one walkie-talkie and one military map shut off the public Channel each group is only allowed to report their situation to me and can only follow my orders remember this walkie-talkie is more important than your life you can die in the fighting you can be surrounded by monsters but you must ensure the safety of the walkie-talkie no matter what group CT head in the nine o'clock Direction groups have to J slowly advance in the one o'clock Direction shall continued on in this exact manner
he assured that Evelyn was ready to go before they moved on she let him know that she was a mechanic first and foremost but she shouldn't have any problems completing such a simple job with that the operation started internist Group B reported they had encountered monsters as they stared on at the monsters ahead they knew their death was assured Xiao wasted no time handing out orders Group B retrieved 300 meters to the Southwest then he commanded Group D to advance 200 meters to the Northeast when they got to their locations they were to throw their
tactical grenades as soon as they were done throwing their grenades they were too advanced to the Northeast where a group would be waiting for them they had no idea how he knew the monster's exact location but since they were all in such a bad situation they had no choice but to follow his orders as Group D arrived at their assigned location there was indeed a mob of monsters waiting for them there even though they were surprised they did as ordered and threw their tactical grenades When the Smoke cleared the team was nowhere in sight as
they had already advanced to their next destination leaving behind a group of agitated monsters shall Order Group a to detonate the remote control landmines then he ordered group F to turn and Advance 400 meters to the north Xiao wanted Group C to turn and Advance 300 meters to the east groups g h l were to stand guard on the Cliff of C4 and to ready their tactical grenades before their very eyes the plan was coming to fruition two groups ran towards each other each trailed by a legion of angry beasts the groups turned and headed
towards the cliff the monsters were unaware of the dangers that awaited them the prisoners were stunned how was anyone capable of accomplishing such a feat and with that his plans to win their trust had succeeded the prisoners would follow his orders to the end of the Earth the cliff top group wasted no time raining down hell upon the monsters and without any casualties the operation was complete the prisoners happily returned to the Mountaintop as they had successfully completed their induction mission as soon as the coast was clear Xiao wasted no time having jungling use her
power to light up the nukes the explosion caused the surface of the inactive volcano to rip apart releasing all the waters that supplied the local hot spring a wave of death washed from the top of the mountain but the water released from the hot springs was just a Tipping Point the true Devastation came as an avalanche was created from the debris of the initial assault as it swept downhill more and more monsters were caught up in the flood of death zhao's operation was successful and in one Fell Swoop he had cleared this part of the
front lines you would think this would be good news for civilization but seeing how as none of the great generals had anything to do with the attack it would only bring them great shame and if news that prisoners were involved in such a miraculous operation got out their shame would only be doubled so the federation did what the Federation does best they took credit for the whole operation no one would ever admit that on that day a party from the Redemption camp out did the best of the Federation and reversed the course of the Sea
of Monsters but even though the Federation has told the prisoners Limelight they flew them back to civilization on a giant luxury plane but instead of seeing reductions in their sentences for the heroes they had become they were all tossed back in prison and our team of professionals were sent off to a new destination far removed from the prison camp as the news reached the prisoners that the Federation had completely robbed them of their success the group became rambunctious and upset but before a riot could break out the prison guards wasted no time putting them all
down army camp a one commander-in-chief lived in a luxury residence on the front lines Congressman some were surprised when the news of unrest in the prison hit his ears he truly believed the prisoners would be treated as the heroes they were for them to be treated so well to only be casually wiped out was a devious game indeed a once commander-in-chief explained that such bad seeds could not be allowed to return to civilization if such trash was allowed to return they would only spread rumors and lies about our successful operations on the front lines he
explained that he would never play Such games that group reacted horribly to the truths they heard on the news and only got what was coming to them the commander-in-chief didn't expect any problems from the other three participants of the incident he was having them personally watched by his best men because of this he didn't expect such an incident to occur again in the future they moved on to more pleasing subjects rumors had been spreading that the Federation had a great weapon that would change the course of the war but it turned out that such weapons
had already arrived on the front line somewhere in an isolated location of the front lines a group of soldiers prepared for an incoming assault as they saw the whites and the Reds of the Monster's eyes they all stood resolute but just as the Bloodshed was about to start they were all ordered to retreat to the second line of defense before they could argue the absurdity of such an order the ruling officer explained that this command came from the top special troops from Star City would be replacing them immediately a big barefooted ogre stepped onto the
battlefield if you're told to scram little human you scram a whole Squadron of super Jack soldiers were making their way onto the battlefields the soldiers looked to be heavily modified if Bane had children these soldiers would be a dead ringer for them as soon as their handlers cleared them for battle they wasted no time getting into the thick of it they shot up whatever red goo they were on and instantly doubled in size now that they were fully jacked they only had one thing on their mind they sprinted forward repeating the mantra kill kill kill
and they wasted no time doing just that the Bane soldiers were literally weapons created in Humanity's image the normal soldiers thought they were all mad they couldn't tell who exactly were the monsters in this situation the super soldier shredded the Beast with little effort they were disappointed they weren't given a true fight they decided to increase their difficulties by charging into the center of the horde of monsters this would allow the difficulty to at least be artificially increased seeing as how they were now being attacked from all sides the regular Soldier was panicking he begged
their handlers to stop their Reckless Behavior he believed the Bane soldiers were forcing themselves into a suicide situation the Handler reassured him that they were only expressing their true powers which they can only achieve by charging headlong into Danger the soldier was stunned at that moment he realized that these people from Star City were insane the lead Soldier decided to let his hair hang loose he peeled the suffocating mask from his face revealing the half monster he truly was at this the monsters all paused in their attack as they weren't used to fighting things similar
to themselves the Bane Soldier decided to up the ante and perform his second injection as he pounded his chest the red serum flowed into his body causing him to swell in size and become a true monster he wasted no time crushing the face of the closest monster with his bare hand the human monster was now fully off his rockers and destruction was the only thing that would quench his thirst the double Jack super soldier shot forward relishing in the destruction he wrought under the Relentless assault of the super soldiers the flow of monsters eased within
moments and soon trickled out completely the soldier was in shock the Squadron of super soldiers had easily forced the Sea of Monsters to retreat their handlers were ecstatic this batch of experiments far exceeded their expectations they would soon be able to turn any human into a powerful professional using drugs and surgical modifications alone the super soldiers marched off the battlefield leaving a literal Sea Of Destruction behind them their leader presented the head of a rare specimen to the scientists it was not very powerful but it should be useful the super soldier requested to be allowed
to quench The Thirst of his Burning Heart by heading to the next Battlefield his Handler assured him that he had nothing to prove and began a thorough check of his condition the ground Shook and rumbled catching the attention of everyone present the monster Gods had sent a colossal Beast to put the humans in check there was no way something this big just appeared out of nowhere upon closer examination the creature was an amalgamation of all the dead beings they left behind the super soldier was thrilled he would be able to quench his thirst right here
right now he wasted no time throwing himself at this new adversary as he came down with his first attack he was snatched out of the air the scientists calculated that it was an eighth ranked monster he recalculated that it might even be in its ninth rank he knew that this was bad news for his experiment he ordered the super soldier not to inject any more red goo the world wasn't ready for the sight of such an action the super soldier wasn't interested in dying on this battlefield he would inject as much as it took to
secure his survival he swore to kill anything that came into his path as he pounded on his chest the serum flowed into his body rapidly increasing his size but the action turned out to be a bad move as the monstrosity's hands refused to yield before the eyes of everyone the super soldier became unrecognizable even though he was becoming a very powerful monster it just wasn't enough he did his best to force open the monster's hand but it held tight eventually the Colossal Beast Board of such games with both hands it crushed the super soldier showering
the battlefield with its tainted blood the scientists stood there in shock he could clearly see that this Beast took pleasure in its actions it took no time for the news to reach the ears of the commander-in-chief but the situation on the battlefield had changed there wasn't just one Colossus Beast there was now a whole Legion of them headed directly for army camp A1 the commander-in-chief knew exactly what this meant for such a large number of natural disaster level mobs to appear meant that a monster God had appeared in their world Humanity was finally reaping the
consequences of tossing the mask out like trash for a monster God to appear meant that the mask wasn't in the void keeping them in check without thinking the commander-in-chief mentioned the mask in front of one of the very people who condemned him but the commander needed not worry all it did was trigger the politician to recite his idiotic essay about how everything could be laid at the feet of the Mask he wasted no time coming up with a plan to get them out of this situation he wanted to know how many seventh-ranked professionals or higher
resided in the camp the commander wasted no time going down the list currently there was close to 47th ranked professionals there was 15 8th ranked professionals and including the two of them there were six ninth ranked professionals the politician who was in charge of overseeing the war efforts insisted that with enough cannon fodder along with the seventh Rank and higher professionals there would be just enough manpower to overcome this disaster and he reminded the commander-in-chief he was just someone that Star City had this patch to oversee the fighting and there was no need to count
him as part of the war effort the commander was stunned by such a declaration his plan was simple they would send all the professionals to hold the front line then they would clear away the monster problem using multiple nuclear weapons the commander insisted that such a plan would take their professionals out also such action would lead to an unimaginable number of casualties the psychopath from Star City insisted that the lives of professionals were meaningless in comparison to the preservation of the momentum of the war and if the nukes worked out Humanity wouldn't have to rely
on high-level professionals any longer such a plan allowed the cowardice of the commander-in-chief to shine through the gaps in his facade the politician's plan meant that he wouldn't have to needlessly risk his life on the battlefield he immediately sent out the order that would essentially Doom every professional in Army campaign won the foot soldier warned our group of professionals what was headed in their Direction he insisted they Retreat to the closest walls but jamling and Xiao casually crested the embankment jianling had never seen such monstrosities in her entire life all Xiao knew was that he
could sense the aura of the monster God treacherous wisdom the natural disaster grabbed up a handful of cannon fodder shaped it into a ball and launched it towards the humans the soldier stood there in shock as the makeshift missile hurdle towards them upon realizing what was happening Panic ensued multiple organic missiles tore into the walls of army camp A1 seeing as how the small missiles weren't doing the job the Colossus Beast decided to up the ante three of them clustered together and with all their might launched one of their own the huge projectile streak through
the air ending with a spectacular explosion that left a hole in the wall the missile I mean Monster rose up and smashed the human Frozen in place from sheer horror the blow was so powerful it opened the walls allowing the small beasts to Rush In the Camp's defense wasn't prepared for such an onslaught the small monsters wasted no time devouring every human in their path Shao and gianling relentlessly cut down every monster swarming their location jumbling inquired if Xiao had a plan that would reverse the flow of this battle he insisted he could come up
with a plan but he would need at least an hour to make preparations the only problem was they didn't have an hour to spare jamling decided that if this was going to be the place she died it would be a fine death indeed she forced her lightning element through her staff and dashed forward slicing through multiple enemies as she slid to a stop on the edge of the wall countless beasts lay below clamoring for their chance to lay waste to the human race for many years gianling carried hatred in her heart for her father if
it wasn't for him her mother would still be a part of her life but instead his presence has always relentlessly casted her into its shadow she was cursed with a lightning power so strong she had to wear a mask just to suppress its explosive nature if she hadn't been given such a precaution she would have died long ago her Mentor insisted that by now she should understand her father's actions but the truth was whether it was the past present or future she could never and would never understand why he decided not to rescue her from
the Sea of Monsters she guessed it was time for her to pay a visit to hell and asked him that question face to face as purple lightning act uncontrollably off her body she stepped over the edge of the wall she wasn't committing suicide she was just finding an easier path to her destruction she hit the ground wiping away every monster in her path as she carved the path straight to the giant Colossus before her she leaped towards its hand prepared to erase it from existence but to her shock nothing happened it swatted her away like
the annoying fly she was but as she plummeted to her Death Shall rescued her in mid-fall her momentum was so great that the two of them left a crater in the side of the wall Xiao casually walked away from the impact with her cradled in his arms as he laid her against the ground he praised her actions and explained that in her current state she just wasn't capable of taking out an eighth ranked monster as he reached into the void to retrieve bloodraven shall let jianling know he had no plans of dying on this battlefield
and neither should she and right before her eyes he initiated his monster form shall step towards the Colossus knowing that he was finally going to get the fight he deserved jungling was shocked to see zhao's true power he wasted no time fulfilling her original promise to remove the Colossus hand as the chunks fell to the earth a second slash deprived it of the use of its form and with the third attack he cut clean through its shoulder and out the other side and before its upper body could sleuth away and form a puddle on the
ground blood Raven absorbed all of it all the soldiers were in shock that such a monster was eliminated in the blink of an eye but the true monster stared on in all with his very eyes he had saw a human transform into the real savior of day City he never in his life thought he would come across such a magnificent specimen all he could think about was getting Xiao under a scalpel to progress his human modification experiments and just like before the Federation wasted no time launching their nuclear warheads 35 of the natural disaster ending
devices streaked through the sky all of the professionals risking their lives realized that they had been sacrificed for the greater good and the true monster was so corny that he used the line that their sacrifices would not be in vain and all of humanity will remember the sacrifices they chose to make this day a streak of purple cut across the sky and literally before their very eye treacherous wisdom appeared the politician was Furious how was this even possible in the enduring conflict between humans and monsters humans have gradually discerned certain truths there exists a delicate
balance between the unknown void and the Earth the realm of human existence like small shrimps lesser monsters can descend upon Earth through this intricate net similarly Calamity level monsters akin to small fish have the capability to breach this barrier however the demon Gods stand as bloodthirsty great white sharks colossal in size unable to breach the net it is precisely this understanding of the net and the impossibility for the demon Gods to breach it that has led most high-ranking officials of the Federation to advocate for peace among them the peace faction prevails while the mask in
his minority War faction hold the contrasting perspective The Mask staunchly believes that only one side can exist between humans and monsters leaving no room for compromise the survival of the human race necessitates the complete eradication of the demon Gods regardless of the cost this war-like ideology however has gradually alienated The Mask resulting in a loss of support among the high-ranking officials it stands as one of the significant reasons contributing to his ultimate downfall the monster God treacherous wisdom wasted no time eliminating the nukes one after the other he sent each one into the void with
little to no effort the politician was shocked and instantly turned around to retreat from the battlefield while the commander-in-chief stood there Frozen in place not able to summon the will to even control his own body the commander-in-chief glanced back at the politician asking him where exactly was he rushing off to and his simple response was things had spiraled out of control and he was needed back in Star City put simply he was running away with his tail between his legs but the commander-in-chief being the coward that he was insisted that no one knew better what
happened on this Battlefront than he did leading to both cowards attempting to escape their imminent demise all of the professionals stared on as the beasts rejoiced in the arrival of their master as they stood there rejoicing with all their might shall did not waste the opportunity he proceeded to slice open each of the Colossus but one caught him off guard and sent him flying on a trajectory straight for the Earth shall laid in the rubble as half his monster face peeled away revealing the human underneath as the monster God treacherous wisdom stared down upon his
form what Jian Ling saw didn't make any sense Ling had seen Xiao transform into the humanoid monster but with her excellent deduction skills she pieced together that the only way a monster God would care about a single human was if that human happened to be Xiao was none other than the mask Xiao and the monster Gods stared each other down eventually fear radiated through every part of treacherous wisdom and he immediately retreated from the battlefield as he hastily Departed the Colossus simply ceased to exist causing all of the smaller monsters to retreat as well leaving
a scarred Battlefield in their wake the professionals that escaped their imminent Demise by a sliver cheered from the top of the walls of army camp A1 all Xiao knew was that treacherous wisdom was still the same coward he always was in my past life upon entering the void inhabited by the Monstrous Gods treacherous wisdom would cower and conceal itself refusing to confront me directly it dared not even reveal a glimpse of its Tale however the moment I renounce my identity as the mask and relinquished all my power treacherous wisdom found the audacity to launch an
attack it surprised me to witness its fear-stricken Retreat upon seeing me if it had truly sensed my power even for a fleeting moment considering its 13th rank it should have realized that crushing the current version of me would be no more challenging than squashing an ant path of a monster main objective Sea of Monsters completed rewards partial transformation into a monster God explanation starting partial transformation into a monster God will allow you to surpass the Earthly limits of ninth ranked professionals and become a true God in the eyes of humans take note partial transformation into
a monster God requires a large amount of real-world objects to maintain such as gold bars precious gems specially made materials Etc as the energy of monsters swirled around him shall was filled with immeasurable strength but with it came the urge to destroy and consume everything he did his best to suppress all of these cravings but while he was minding his own business leveling up trash decided to Grace him with its presence the corrupt politician the commander-in-chief and also the Supreme Commander stood before him along with the secret police knew what was coming and came to
zhao's rescue even though I highly doubt he needs it she explained exactly who he was and that he was a professional in her party that he was a human and not a monster but the politicians knew hype man the commander-in-chief refuted all of her claims this smooth tongue politician let the dribble roll out of his mouth once a monster always a monster him being disguised as a human doesn't change that he's most definitely been hiding among humans this whole time it's not without reason to believe that he's the cause of the Sea of Monsters when
he appeared in day City a Calamity level monster also appeared in day City as soon as he appeared on the repelling monster front a Sea of Monsters instantly fell upon us I don't see any of this as a coincidence his hyped man was right there to back him up are you all crazy did you not just see him defend us against those ninth ranked monsters if he was a monster he would be attacking us not them and not to mention he's the reason why the monster God retreat the hype man Cut Her Off he insisted
she shut her mouth how dare she defend the monster he decided that since she was defending of a monster she had to be working for the demon Gods too so he proceeded with the power granted to him as the commander-in-chief of the repelling monster front to place both of them under arrest the secret police surrounded them weapons at the ready Xiao was done playing around he casually lunged the soldier into the air the commander-in-chief launched an attack against Xiao energy radiated from his hand covered in a pair of Metal Knuckles Xiao blocked his attack with
bloodraven and at their simple contact the commander knew he was in trouble luckily the politician took this opportunity to put Xiao in a headlock fully covered in his green aura he felt he was Unstoppable Xiao broke his grip and slung him over his shoulder immediately piercing him through the chest with blood Raven as his arterial blood scattered across the ground Xiao turned his attention to the commander-in-chief the coward in Chief tried to escape ordering his underlings to throw away their life bloodraven surrounded him on all sides zhao's mere presence frightened him to his core he
shouted that Xiao was a traitor and what did he truly believe he was going to accomplish since you believe me to be a monster I might as well act apart Xiao proceeded to slash him through leaving nothing but a blood stain in his wake the Supreme Commander shot forward taking a knee before Xiao Army Chief I apologize for not helping you take out that trash the Supreme Commander proceeded to explain that while his eyes were not in the best shape his sense of smell and hearing are very sensitive because of that his perception level is
very high so he knew zhao's identity from the very start how could he of all people ever mistake the identity of the Mask your true followers have been waiting for your return we will March upon Star City and Slaughter any Congressman that stands in our way we will take control of everything that rightfully should have belonged to you armies across the world will pledge allegiance to your name I doubt you understand the countless number of souls that have always been on your side in the past you shrugged off the mantle of power that belonged to
you but I believe you've changed and will step up and lead us to Victory not just against the human trash but the demon Gods themselves as the Supreme Commander looked down shall blasted into the air retreating from the situation through the United efforts of the repelling monster front with the invaluable support of troops from Star City the Federation has achieved an extraordinary Victory on the front lines of the human monster conflict in this epic battle we obliterated millions of demons including a remarkable feat of eliminating sixth seventh rank 25 8 Rank and 12 9th ranked
demons during the decisive encounter at army camp A1 while the federation did Bear the weight of casualties in this grueling struggle against the Sea of Monsters the significance of these sacrifices becomes apparent when one considers the resplendent outcome of this battle it is through these selfless sacrifices that the human race has been persevered Paving the way for the Glorious situation we find ourselves in today however amidst the vastness of this conflict an unprecedented occurrence emerged Traders and turncoats infiltrated our ranks sabotaging our efforts from within resulting in substantial losses for the monster repelling front faced
with the Monstrous threat certain individuals willingly betrayed their own kind to secure their wretched lives they turn their weapons against their fellow humans inflicting unnecessary death and injury upon the unprepared and unsuspecting ramblings spread amongst the crowd they had no idea monsters could disguise themselves as humans they wonder how many were out there the president of the Federation silenced them and paraphrased his previous speech amidst this glorious battle a Vanguard of Brave Warriors emerged selflessly sacrificing their lives in the name of Humanity's survival among them a disheartening Revelation unfolded as we uncovered individuals whose alliances
were tied to the very monsters we fought against a treacherous Act of infiltration orchestrated by the enemy however amidst this complex situation a small faction of humans willingly aligned themselves with the monsters acting as their loyal lap dogs rest assured we are Resolute in our determination to expose these traitors and bring them to justice through Fair trials and rightful verdicts the Federation remains steadfast in its commitment to uphold truth and integrity ensuring that no false accusations tarnish the process not a single criminal will be allowed to evade accountability as we stand firm in our pursuit
of Justice as the crowd cheered the news reporter noticed an individual standing on the building nearby they scan towards Xiao waiting for his presence to be discovered the civilians in the crowd panicked and began to scatter in all directions the foolish secret police attacked this was their Turf Star City shall countered each of their attacks avoiding killing a single soul as they continue to attack him he slowly approached the stage the Federation president consumed by paranoia instantly recognized that familiar silhouette it was unmistakable this figure belonged to shoutshiel a person he knew all too well
in the past they had fought side by side as comrades and France yet they had also stood on opposing sides when shoutshiel faced impeachment the president couldn't help but wonder how Xiao viewed him now did he see him with the same disdain after all how could the current version of himself compare to the revered mask shoutshiel was the embodiment of a hero loved and respected by all however circumstances presented an opportunity for the president to prove his worth before the entire world with the newly developed medication that could transform a person into a monster he
could attain the same power he believed that he could become his equal matching him in strength and prowess but when the chance presented itself he froze before the presence of shell even as shall pass by him not recognizing him in the slightest fear froze him in place he dropped to the ground defeated looking like a total loser as Xiao stepped up to the podium three simple words slipped from his lips I am mask the crowd speculated and wondered how their hero had become a monster he made it clear that his return wasn't to assume the
role of a celebrated hero the truth had been revealed Humanity never truly required a hero there was a single essential element that Humanity desperately needed and that element was Xiao himself regardless of whether he was referred to as the mask or any other name he asserted that only he possessed the ability to guide them out of their despair out of the Abyss they found themselves in the foolish actions and choices they had displayed during this period would only lead them to their untimely demise it wasn't a matter of his personal necessity but rather the undeniable
truth that all of them needed him only he stood as the Beacon of Hope and salvation that could pull them out of their current predicament the crowd was shocked The Mask had always let them walk over him how could he say such things he was always humble and a man of few words however in the current state of affairs it has become evident that an excessive accumulation of power instills fear within all of you this fear has driven you to cast me aside and Exile me from your midst it is crucial to understand that weakness
has never been a sin but rather it is pride that holds that distinction hence this time I have returned with the purpose of depleting your resources in order to augment my own power I make this declaration to the entire world for from this day onward the Dominion of this entire planet shall belong to me and jumbling's eyes all her Loose Ends have finally been tied up she truly understood the words of her Mentor now the sad pathetic excuse for humans wasted no time getting behind their new ruler they shouted nonsense like may he live for
ten thousand years over and over as they bowed to his presence all you see before you belongs to me I dare anyone to try to take it and that concludes this part of this magnificent story if the author sees fit to Grace us with more stories from the world of Xiao I will recap them immediately thank you for sticking in there through this entire story and as always like comment and subscribe
