00:00:00The beast then walked forward, ignoring Peter on the ground.
00:00:04Sia then noticed that its body seemed to be facing in a certain direction.
00:00:08It was looking at Logan.
00:00:10The suit's creation was almost done.
00:00:12It was mostly silver in color, matching that of the spider's.
00:00:16Unlike the previous one, which was quite large and bulky, looking almost mech-light.
00:00:21Only the last part remained, which was the head.
00:00:24Logan saw the beast coming towards him, and decided to quickly place his body into the
00:00:28suit.
00:00:29He focused on allowing the spiders to complete the final part.
00:00:32The suit of armor had been completed.
00:00:34This won't be enough, Logan predicted after witnessing the fight between Peter and the
00:00:38beast.
00:00:40He had seen Peter fight in the VR game, and he could gauge his strength.
00:00:44There was still one more thing Logan needed.
00:00:46A weapon.
00:00:48A female robotic voice sounded inside his head.
00:00:51Two intermediate-tier crystals detected.
00:00:54An energy weapon is being generated.
00:00:56The beast was now only a few meters away from Logan's position.
00:01:00The suit he had formed now focused on attack power.
00:01:03Just as Logan was planning to dash towards it, a familiar voice shouted from behind the
00:01:08beast.
00:01:09Hey, if you want to forget about me, you have to make sure you've killed me first!
00:01:13Peter shouted.
00:01:14As Peter stood there, she noticed he had his hand over his belly.
00:01:18His regenerative powers were impressive, but he had used too much energy, and for the first
00:01:23time, he felt hungry.
00:01:25It swung its arm out, and Peter could see the blade.
00:01:28With his reaction speed, he was able to react to the attack, but he could tell that he was
00:01:32a little bit too late, and the blade this time would chop his head off.
00:01:36He continued to duck down with all his might, and as he did, the sound of an object swinging
00:01:41fast through the air was heard.
00:01:43My head!
00:01:44It's alright, it's still on me!
00:01:46Peter thought.
00:01:49Looking at the beast, Spirit Spears could be seen plunging deep into its body.
00:01:53Leah, who had been watching from the side, was deeply confused.
00:01:57She looked closely at the spears that were inside the beast.
00:02:00They looked identical to her own, the only problem was that she wasn't the one who had
00:02:04thrown them.
00:02:05They say, heroes always arrive at the last second, Vorden said with a smile, as he appeared
00:02:10out from one of the buildings, with Layla standing by his side.
00:02:14Your family member, Peter Race White, is getting hungry.
00:02:18Seeing this message brought back bad memories for Quinn, but he was worried about what was
00:02:22happening so he started to pick up the pace.
00:02:25Coming from the side of one of the buildings, both of them had quickly assessed the situation.
00:02:30Seeing a humanoid creature, they knew the others were in danger, and when they saw Peter
00:02:34trying to confront the thing, they didn't have much time to think and needed to act
00:02:38straight away.
00:02:40Layla, go check up on Logan and see if there's anything you can do to help, Vorden said.
00:02:45Vorden still had not gotten the chance to gather many abilities.
00:02:48Zia's support ability was at level 4, and Layla's telekinesis ability was at level 2.
00:02:54Using Raytan, he could power that up to level 6.
00:02:57Not only that, but Peter needed Vorden's help.
00:03:00Based on the last attack, he had only come out alive by the skin of his teeth.
00:03:04The beast tried to swing its hand mid-air, then the spirit blade's time ran out.
00:03:09Now that its speed had returned to normal, it looked up at Peter, ready to finish him
00:03:14off once again.
00:03:16It prepared its legs, ready to spring into action once again, but just before it was
00:03:20about to set off.
00:03:23Vorden threw another one of the spirit spears, landing right in the back of the beast's legs.
00:03:28Now the beast was looking in Vorden's direction.
00:03:31As it looked down, another spirit spear was stuck in its body.
00:03:34The beast was sure it was keeping an eye on the other boy, so where did the spear come from?
00:03:39"'Pretty boy, you owe me a date after this one,' Zia shouted.
00:03:44Before the beast could choose its target, Peter was already upon him and had thrown
00:03:48a fist against his solid body.
00:03:50The beast shifted from his position a few inches back.
00:03:54The beast was able to avoid all of the spears thrown by the two.
00:03:57"'They say heroes arrive at the last second,' Fex said, with his hands twitching, holding
00:04:02the strings using all of his strength.
00:04:04At first, she thought that Fex had saved her, but on closer inspection, a strange purple
00:04:09shadow substance could be seen around it.
00:04:12From the corner of her eye, she could see a black-haired boy pulling and twitching off
00:04:16to the side.
00:04:17Zia thought, wasn't he a Level One?
00:04:20As the beast saw its bladed arm being wrapped around by a strange shadow substance while
00:04:25also being pulled by the strings, it wondered which one was affecting it more.
00:04:30A whisper was suddenly heard in Peter's ear.
00:04:34"'Go join the others,' Quinn said.
00:04:36"'You've fought enough, and if you get hurt again, who knows if you will survive?'
00:04:40Peter looked to his side and saw Quinn standing there.
00:04:43He had already equipped all of his beast-gear equipment before coming over ready for a battle.
00:04:48"'If you are in trouble, I won't hesitate to sacrifice myself,' Peter said as he walked
00:04:53off to where the others were.
00:04:55New quest received.
00:04:56Defeat the King of the Underground City.
00:04:58King Tier Beast Lickmorn.
00:05:00The town has been left behind, and in its empty place the beast began to take over.
00:05:05Amongst the many, eventually, a single creature took over, calming the seat and the title
00:05:09of the king.
00:05:10The others do his bidding as he protects the treasure located in the tower.
00:05:15Quest reward question."
00:05:17What interested Quinn about this strange quest was for the first time, it seemed to inform
00:05:22a little bit about how the creature came to be.
00:05:25The beast was no longer curious about the strange shadow and strings, and pulled its
00:05:29arm back out of the shadow.
00:05:31Seeing this, Quinn quickly returned it to himself.
00:05:34There was one great advantage to them being underground.
00:05:38Logan's shadow powers were stronger.
00:05:39"'I need to help them,' Vorden said.
00:05:42"'Seventy percent of energy weapon has been created.'
00:05:45Whatever Logan was doing, it looked like it still wasn't ready yet, and he couldn't join
00:05:49the fight.
00:05:50"'Logan, do you mind if I touch you?'
00:05:53Vorden asked.
00:05:54Part of the suit that was covering the arm shifted upward as the suit broke down into
00:05:58hundreds of little spiders, and they did a handshake.
00:06:02With that, Vorden started to move.
00:06:04His aim was never to use Logan's ability, but only the MC cells that came with it.
00:06:09They would be able to combine the other abilities, making a spirit spear above a level 8 ability.
00:06:15Vex knew that none of his mind control and charm-like abilities would work on such a
00:06:19powerful creature, which meant they would have to deal with it the old-fashioned way.
00:06:25"'Argh!' Vex shouted as he charged in.
00:06:27"'Quinn, I'll attack and you cover me with the shadow!'
00:06:31Although Quinn didn't agree with the plan, it was already too late as Vex charged in.
00:06:36While charging forward, Vex threw out blood swipes.
00:06:39Seeing this beast, they swung its hand blades.
00:06:42At such an incredible speed, it looked like it had managed to create its wind-strike pressure
00:06:46that clashed with the blood swipes.
00:06:49Using the shadow, Quinn blocked some of the attacks, while also using the blood swipe
00:06:53of his own.
00:06:55The two of them continued to attack while pushing forward.
00:06:58It took the two of them using their blood swipes, including Quinn using his shadow,
00:07:02to match the speed of attacks coming from the King-Tier beast, and currently they were
00:07:07at a stalemate.
00:07:09Although they were able to match the power and speed of the King-Tier's attacks, they
00:07:13couldn't keep this up forever.
00:07:15In a way, using the blood-type attack drained their life force and they would eventually
00:07:19run out of energy.
00:07:20"'Quinn, charge in!' Vex shouted.
00:07:23"'Blood shield!'
00:07:24A wide barrier of blood was lifted from the ground, blocking the incoming attacks.
00:07:29Quinn didn't hesitate and went off to the side.
00:07:32"'Windwalk activated!'
00:07:34Using his extra speed from his intermediate boots, he tried charging in from the side.
00:07:39"'Blood crescent kick!'
00:07:40It was too risky to get in close, it would notice Quinn by then.
00:07:44Even with the attacks coming towards it, it did nothing to block them.
00:07:48The two attacks had landed on the beast, yet not a mark was left on it.
00:07:53"'That was one of my most powerful attacks!'
00:07:56There was only one thing left for Quinn to try.
00:07:59"'Flash step!'
00:08:00In the middle of his preparation for the strike, the tree-root extended arm had turned around
00:08:05and extended, following Quinn's position.
00:08:08"'Flash step!'
00:08:09Quinn tried to execute the flash step, but for the first time he was too slow.
00:08:14The blade pierced through him easily, and now he was attached to the beast via its extended
00:08:18root arm.
00:08:19"'Sixty of eighty HP!'
00:08:22Fex using his great speed had managed to get within striking distance of the beast.
00:08:27An uppercut fist encased in blood was aiming towards the beast's belly.
00:08:32It was an attack Quinn had never seen before.
00:08:34It was also the strongest attack that Fex had, combining his martial arts with his vampire
00:08:39skills.
00:08:40"'You damn tree fell!' he shouted as he plunged his fist right into the center of its belly.
00:08:46Vibrations and pressure of wind came out from the attack, and the beast moved a foot back
00:08:51as it slightly curved and arched its back forward.
00:08:55The beast stood upright and lifted its arm that was attached to Quinn.
00:08:59The two were lifted high, a few meters up in the air, as it used a strong force, slamming
00:09:04him down into one of the buildings off to the side.
00:09:07The building crumbled down on top of Quinn's body as he was thrown down.
00:09:11Most of his bones had been broken, and it was painful to even lift his body.
00:09:15"'Twelve of eighty HP!
00:09:17Blood bank activate!'
00:09:19He had no choice, and needed to use the blood bank to heal most of the serious wounds.
00:09:24As his body started to recover, he watched Fex amazingly dodge the beast's fast attacks.
00:09:30The fight continued, and a pool of blood could be seen underneath his two feet.
00:09:35The wounds were taking a toll on him as he started to slow down.
00:09:39In the middle of the fight, Fex started to lose hope.
00:09:42Even if he was faster, more skillful, it meant nothing.
00:09:46His strongest attack was unable to hurt the beast.
00:09:49Fex continued to dodge.
00:09:51In the middle of his thoughts, a strange green beam of light could be seen from his side.
00:09:56"'Duck!'
00:09:57Instinctively, Fex reacted to the words and ducked his body.
00:10:00The green beam of light carried on moving forward and went straight through the beast's
00:10:04body.
00:10:05"'Energy weapon has been completed.'
00:10:07"'Looks like it was a success,' Logan said.
00:10:10For the first time during the fight, black blood was trickling down from the wound."
00:10:14For the first time since the fight had started, the king-tier beast had finally bled, although
00:10:36Fex was unaware of what had happened.
00:10:38Quinn, who had emerged from the rubble, managed to catch everything with his own two eyes.
00:10:43Quinn was still injured, his wounds were worse than usual, and even with the use of
00:10:47the blood bank, his body would take a while to heal.
00:10:50"'Logan!'
00:10:51Quinn thought.
00:10:52"'Engage!
00:10:53Maximum system output,' Logan said as he thrust his fist forward.
00:10:57The Katar-like weapon suddenly grew longer.
00:11:00The green energy extended and went right through the beast's solid body.
00:11:04"'Fex, I'm going to need your help,' Logan said as he pulled out the energy blade from
00:11:08the beast.
00:11:09Suddenly, the beast's attention was on Logan.
00:11:12The beast went in for an attack from above, and Logan went to block with the energy blade,
00:11:17but when Fex looked at them both, it looked like watching a tortoise and hare race against
00:11:21each other.
00:11:23Logan was too slow.
00:11:24Seeing this, using his last bit of energy, Fex pivoted and shifted himself using all
00:11:29his strength to dash forward.
00:11:31"'Kill the damn thing!'
00:11:33Fex screamed as more blood was dripping down his arm.
00:11:36"'Energy blade, maximum output!'
00:11:38Logan shouted, and at the same time, one of the energy blades seemed to respond.
00:11:43It grew twice in size, and Logan slashed down with all his strength.
00:11:47It went through the beast's side, and the sound of something falling to the ground was
00:11:52heard.
00:11:53The green jade-like arm had been detached from its body, and black blood was now pouring
00:11:57out from the wound.
00:11:59"'What is that?'
00:12:00Sia asked, amazed at what was happening.
00:12:02"'I've never seen a weapon like that before,' Layla said.
00:12:05"'I've seen one of these before, or to be more precise, I learned about this before.
00:12:10It's another way to use the beast crystal that was discontinued by the military.'
00:12:14"'Discontinued, but why?'
00:12:16Sia asked.
00:12:17"'As you can see, by using crystals as a form of raw energy, one can create something called
00:12:22an energy blade.
00:12:24The problem is that all of its energy is coming from the crystal, and it needs a constant
00:12:28output to support it.
00:12:30Once all the energy from the crystal has been used, the weapon will disappear.
00:12:34Because of these reasons, the military decided that it was much more practical to use the
00:12:38crystal core, to create beast weapons rather than energy weapons.'
00:12:42"'It looks like the attack was a success,' Logan said.
00:12:46With the black blood dripping from the beast's wound, it retreated for the first time, leaping
00:12:51back.
00:12:52Fex wanted to chase after the thing, but when he took a step forward, his wound seemed to
00:12:56have gotten the better of him.
00:12:58He went down to one knee, stopping himself from collapsing on the floor.
00:13:02"'I'm more hurt than I thought.'
00:13:04There was no point for Logan to chase it, either.
00:13:07If he was to chase the beast, he wouldn't catch up to the thing in a million years.
00:13:12Suddenly the beast's wound started to bleed less.
00:13:15It looked like some vine-like structures were starting to cover over the wound.
00:13:19Next, from the wound, a little stump was starting to grow.
00:13:22"'Am I imagining things, or is that thing getting smaller?'
00:13:26Layla asked, still looking from the side of the street.
00:13:29"'You're right,' Peter replied.
00:13:31The group wasn't imagining things.
00:13:33As the stump started to grow, it looked like it was forming another hand.
00:13:37At the same time, the beast was getting smaller in size.
00:13:40"'Why don't you lie back down?'
00:13:42a voice said from his side, as he felt a hand touch his shoulder.
00:13:46"'Quinn, but how?'
00:13:47Fex asked.
00:13:48"'We can talk about that later,' Quinn replied, while handing the flask back to Fex.
00:13:52"'Take it.
00:13:53Heal up.'
00:13:54It was tempting for Fex, but in the end, he refused again.
00:13:57"'No, Quinn, not to be rude, but you're too slow to go against something like this.
00:14:02You keep it.'
00:14:03"'Don't worry about that,' Quinn said as he walked forward.
00:14:06"'Are you sure you would like to add all six points to agility?'
00:14:10Points added.
00:14:11"'Twenty-six plus four agility.'
00:14:13When Quinn said these words, Fex felt his confidence.
00:14:16"'Who are you, really?
00:14:18Is this the difference between the Punishers and the rest of us?'
00:14:21So far, Fex had multiple guesses about who Quinn was, but all of them seemed to be missing
00:14:26the mark.
00:14:27Meanwhile, Fex went off to the side and leaned up against the building wall.
00:14:30Ham, who had been flying and hovering in the air for most of the time, came swooping down.
00:14:35"'Ham, if I don't come back from this, I want you to go back to the others.
00:14:39Don't stay here,' Fex ordered.
00:14:40"'What do you mean?'
00:14:42Ham replied.
00:14:43"'I know the wounds are bad, but you should eventually heal from this, right?'
00:14:46As Ham said those words, he started to look at the wounds, but from the multiple cuts
00:14:51that were mainly on his upper body and arms, blood was still seeping out.
00:14:55"'Master, are you doing this on purpose?'
00:14:58Fex didn't reply.
00:14:59"'And what about the other vampire?
00:15:01If I return, do you want me to inform them about him?'
00:15:04Ham asked.
00:15:05Both Logan and Quinn now stood a few meters apart from the smaller version of the king-tiered
00:15:10beast that they were up against.
00:15:12"'Logan, I want you to stay behind me.
00:15:14When I give the call, I want you to attack with all that you have,' Quinn said.
00:15:19The beast had waited long enough, instead of charging in as it usually did.
00:15:23It decided to swing out its bladed arm and stretch it out from the side.
00:15:27Right now, Quinn was standing directly in front of Logan.
00:15:31With this attack, it was clear that its target was Logan.
00:15:34"'You're not the only one that can do something like that.'
00:15:37Quinn threw a blood swipe and then grabbed it quickly with his shadow.
00:15:41He had made his shadow scythe.
00:15:43He swung it down from above, hoping to hammer it down before it reached Logan.
00:15:48Bang!
00:15:49Like a hammer coming down on a nail.
00:15:51The scythe managed to knock the tree-root arm, pinning it to the ground.
00:15:55"'That attack wasn't that strong last time,' Fex said, seeing this.
00:15:59"'I just—I just—' Sia was at a loss for words.
00:16:03They were all monsters.
00:16:05"'Can you do something like that?'
00:16:07Sia asked Layla.
00:16:09So far, she seemed to be the only normal one in the group.
00:16:11"'As I said, they saved your life earlier.
00:16:14These guys are amazing.'
00:16:15As she said those words, she too wished she would be able to take part in the fight, rather
00:16:20than stand by the side.
00:16:22Seeing that the beast was targeting Logan and not him, Quinn knew he needed to do something.
00:16:26Wind Walk activated.
00:16:29Activating his boots, he dashed forward and traveled at a speed that had never been achieved
00:16:33by him before.
00:16:34In an instant, he had nearly covered the entire distance and was now directly in front of
00:16:39the beast.
00:16:40Punching the beast as hard as it could in the stomach, Quinn was hoping to make some
00:16:44sort of impact, but it didn't even budge.
00:16:47As its other hand retracted back, it started swinging away, attacking him in the same way
00:16:52as it did with Fex.
00:16:54Only the result this time was different.
00:16:56Every strike was avoided.
00:16:57"'This speed!
00:16:58Did he hide his strength?
00:17:00Just how?'
00:17:01Fex was now even more confused than before.
00:17:04Bloodhammer was still the strongest skill in Quinn's arsenal, but it took quite a long
00:17:08time to perform.
00:17:09However, the hammer strike, with his increased speed, could be performed fast enough.
00:17:14He just needed to know how to land the attack.
00:17:17Right now, he was facing a humanoid-type beast.
00:17:20Not only that, but it had some level of intelligence as well.
00:17:24With this in mind, Quinn threw out a punch from above.
00:17:27Using his speed, he threw out one after another.
00:17:30The first attack was blocked, and when the beast saw the second one, it twisted its body
00:17:34slightly to avoid the blow.
00:17:36Then, something strange happened.
00:17:38It had blocked one punch and dodged the other, yet a third hand had come out and hit the
00:17:42beast right on the temple of its rounded head.
00:17:45"'Looks like the phantom punch is a success,' said Quinn with a smile.
00:17:50Quinn wasn't so sure if it would work, but it was obvious that it worked, and was incredibly
00:17:54useful in the battle.
00:17:56The standoff between the two continued, with Quinn avoiding most of the blows cleanly.
00:18:00Once again, another blow landed, this time on the beast's neck just above its chest.
00:18:05"'Again?
00:18:06Is the beast starting to slow down?'
00:18:08Zia thought.
00:18:09But watching closely.
00:18:11Fexx could see that the beast hadn't slowed down at all.
00:18:15Its movements were still as fast as ever.
00:18:17So what was happening?
00:18:18"'It's got to be the phantom punch.
00:18:20I can't think of anything else.
00:18:22He's mixing it with the ordinary jabs and hooks.
00:18:24But who taught him the phantom punch, and when?'
00:18:27Even with all these points, and even if Quinn did have a teacher that was in the school.
00:18:32It didn't explain the crazy amount of time it had taken him to learn such a skill.
00:18:37Now Fexx was frightened.
00:18:39The punches continued to descend like a waterfall.
00:18:42"'I was wrong,' Zia said.
00:18:44I can't believe I thought he was useless.
00:18:46I'm sorry, Layla, I now understand why you got mad.'
00:18:50As Layla watched Quinn, even she hadn't expected something like this from him.
00:18:55Although, the tides had turned in the fight, with Quinn being able to attack the beast
00:18:59several times.
00:19:01It did not affect it whatsoever.
00:19:03The blows didn't leave any wounds or marks, and it had barely moved from its original
00:19:07position due to Quinn's attacks.
00:19:09"'He must be doing something,' Quinn thought.
00:19:12Otherwise, why would the beast attempt to block the attacks?
00:19:15Still, he wasn't doing enough damage.
00:19:17Looks like I have to use the hammer strike after all,' Quinn thought.
00:19:21Another phantom punch was delivered to the stomach.
00:19:23As the beast went to block the attack, a flash step was performed, and Quinn was now standing
00:19:28directly behind the beast.
00:19:30The movements of the hammer strike had started, and the beast attempted to turn around.
00:19:35As it did, its movements slowed down, and its feet got stuck in the place where it was
00:19:39standing.
00:19:40It hadn't noticed that during the fight, Quinn had moved his shadow down to the beast's feet.
00:19:45Holding it in place, the plan was never to keep the beast there.
00:19:49He knew it wouldn't hold it back long enough, but it was enough time for him to perform
00:19:52the hammer strike.
00:19:54Placing his foot down, he pulled one arm back and snapped the other one out, hitting the
00:19:59beast right in the center.
00:20:01For the first time, it lifted into the air, and when it landed, the beast stumbled, struggling
00:20:06to stand on its two feet.
00:20:08''Attack now!'' Quinn ordered.
00:20:09''Did I wait too long?''
00:20:11Vorden said as he watched from a window up high.
00:20:15But right now, Vorden could tell what had happened to the beast.
00:20:18It was now in rage mode.
00:20:21With this, the maximum amount of energy from the crystal inside them would pump around
00:20:25their body.
00:20:27Beasts rarely went into this mode, due to the fact they could only go into it once.
00:20:31If all the energy from the crystal was used up while in rage mode, they would die and
00:20:35no longer exist.
00:20:37The other problem was, if a beast was killed while it was in rage mode, the crystal obtained
00:20:41from it would be useless.
00:20:43The Katarr continued to thrust forward, seeing this, the beast knocked the weapon away, shattering
00:20:48it, as its attack collided against the weapon.
00:20:51Lifting its legs out, it extended like a fast piston, hitting Logan in the stomach.
00:20:57Vorden was flung back in the air and was thrown several feet down the street.
00:21:01As he was chucked through the air, several of the spiders that made up the suit seemed
00:21:05to fall onto the ground as well.
00:21:07Fex, seeing this, was now sure.
00:21:09He had made the right decision.
00:21:11Slowly his body was starting to change, his muscles were bulging, his skin shrinking,
00:21:16and his hair was falling off from the top of his head.
00:21:19Ham flew away from his master, looking back at what Fex had become.
00:21:24He had a sad look on his face.
00:21:26So you did transform.
00:21:28Vorden had the best view of what was going on down below.
00:21:31He and Raiton had switched places, and Raiton was ready to throw the Spirit Spear.
00:21:35Just before doing so, Raiton informed Vorden about something.
00:21:39With the use of MC cells from both Logan and Sia, Vorden right now had one of the strongest
00:21:45support abilities out there.
00:21:47As he continued to watch from above, his heart started to sink.
00:21:50It was because there was something else down there with them that had brought back bad
00:21:54memories.
00:21:55Fex, who was leaning up against one of the buildings, was no longer there, or at least
00:22:00was no longer himself.
00:22:02Instead, the sight of what was known as a bloodsucker was there instead.
00:22:06"'Quinn, behind you!' Vorden shouted.
00:22:09Quinn had his eyes dead set ahead.
00:22:11As he turned his head, he could see a bald, muscle-bound creature.
00:22:15The claws on its hands had widened.
00:22:17If it wasn't for the clothes that it was wearing, Quinn would never have known it was Fex.
00:22:21"'What is that?'
00:22:23Quinn said.
00:22:24"'You remember?'
00:22:25the system said.
00:22:26'He has turned into a bloodsucker.'
00:22:27"'Did he do this willingly?'
00:22:30Quinn asked.
00:22:31"'Perhaps, for a vampire to turn into a bloodsucker, they must have an immense amount of thirst,'
00:22:35the system explained.
00:22:36"'My guess is, when he was wounded by the beast, he suppressed his healing abilities,
00:22:42allowing the blood to continue to drain from his body.
00:22:45Vampires aren't often taught this, since a bloodsucker doesn't even see its kind as a
00:22:48friend, which would suggest he is an important figure, perhaps the son of one of the vampire's
00:22:55Although the explanation was interesting for Quinn, he didn't have much time to think about
00:22:59it.
00:23:00He looked to his left.
00:23:01He looked to his right, waiting for one of them to make their first movement.
00:23:06At the same time, the bloodsucker and beast dashed forward.
00:23:09"'Damn it!
00:23:10Shadow cloak!'
00:23:11Quinn said.
00:23:12From his feet, the shadow rose, and suddenly, Quinn had vanished from their sight.
00:23:16As Quinn hurried to escape from the area, the two of them clashed in the center of the
00:23:20street.
00:23:21The bloodsucker swiped its claw, while the beast threw out its balded arm.
00:23:26Instead of going over to where the others were, Quinn decided to stay quite close to
00:23:31the fight.
00:23:32In the back of his mind, there was one thing he kept thinking about.
00:23:35The quest.
00:23:36While the beast was in its rage mode, there was only one attack that could do any type
00:23:40of damage, and that was the blood hammer.
00:23:44The only question was how.
00:23:46How would he get the last hit?'
00:23:50Hi, Quinn here.
00:23:51Wondering what happens next?
00:23:53If you want to jump the queue and unleash all episodes, click on the link here and install
00:23:57the Pocket FM app.
00:24:04The fight continued between the bloodsucker and the king-tier beast.
00:24:07When a vampire turns into a bloodsucker, their health, or in Quinn's case, HP, decreases.
00:24:13Their wounds would also no longer heal.
00:24:15It was a starved state for vampires, a mode that allowed them to grow stronger to consume
00:24:21blood, but also acted as a double-edged sword.
00:24:23However, slowly one of them was starting to get an edge, and it looked like it was the
00:24:28bloodsucker.
00:24:29Quinn planned to inch closer and closer and try to get behind the king-tier beast.
00:24:34Running forward and around the two, he wanted to get behind the fight.
00:24:37As he took a step to the side, suddenly a large claw-like fist came out towards him.
00:24:43The fist was briefly stopped by the shadow, and when he looked at where it had come from,
00:24:47it was from the bloodsucker.
00:24:49He could sense where I was even with the shadow cloak on?
00:24:52Quinn thought.
00:24:53Luckily, I already thought that something like this might happen and prepared my shadow
00:24:57just in case.
00:24:58Quinn quickly stepped back and went to his position before.
00:25:02It looked like Fex really could no longer differentiate between friend and foe.
00:25:07For now, Quinn's MC points had reached zero.
00:25:10Zero of 100 MC.
00:25:12The only thing was, now the others could see him as well.
00:25:15Quinn, what are you doing?
00:25:16Leave it to the two monsters, Vorden said from above.
00:25:19The beast had done the same, as last time after its arm had been ripped out.
00:25:24It wanted to take a few steps back and start to recover, but the bloodsucker wasn't going
00:25:28to let it go.
00:25:30When the beast dashed backwards, the bloodsucker chased it.
00:25:33With a swipe to its chest, the red roots were split open, and the black blood squirted out
00:25:37once again.
00:25:39Obsessed with getting the quest reward for killing the thing, Quinn dashed forward.
00:25:43Seeing this, the bloodsucker leaped in the air, and it looked like it would close the
00:25:47distance between the two with one jump.
00:25:49The others expected Quinn to attempt to dodge, but instead, he started to go through the
00:25:54motion of the hammer strike, timing everything perfectly when the bloodsucker jumped.
00:25:59Just when it was about to land, Quinn performed a flash step.
00:26:03Avoiding the attack, he appeared in front of the king-tier beast.
00:26:06BLOODHAMMER!
00:26:07The beast was already weak, and using all the strength he could, he snapped back his
00:26:11arm and with the punch, released the power of the level 2 blood spray, performing a bloodhammer.
00:26:17Carefully, Quinn had hit the same spot where the bloodsucker had clawed out the roots,
00:26:21protecting its upper body.
00:26:23Unlike before, the attack seemed to go through.
00:26:26Quest completed!
00:26:28Defeat the king-tier beast!
00:26:30Looking at Fex, a large, thick blue spirit spear was stuck inside the bloodsucker.
00:26:35Quinn, I can't produce another one like that!
00:26:38Finish him now if you can!
00:26:39A voice was heard shouting from down the street.
00:26:42Looking behind the bloodsucker, Quinn could see Vorden running towards him.
00:26:46The spear had come from him.
00:26:48Kill Fex?
00:26:49Quinn said.
00:26:50No, he couldn't do that.
00:26:52It was only because of him that they were able to kill the king-tier beast in the first
00:26:56place.
00:26:57While watching what was going on, the girl started to hear a few voices from somewhere.
00:27:01So, just a little further ahead and the beast you encountered before should be here?
00:27:05A confident young voice said.
00:27:07Yes, sir.
00:27:08Every time we wanted to go explore the tower, the beast would come out and stop us, a female
00:27:12voice said.
00:27:14Down the street, a group of travelers was walking together.
00:27:17It was easy to spot them since each of them had a sticky light patch on them.
00:27:21It allowed the area around the person to be bathed in light.
00:27:24They were the group of travelers who had reported to the military, updating them about the exploration,
00:27:29a female voice said.
00:27:31It looks like there are other people here.
00:27:32Heck, they're kids, aren't they?
00:27:34The group quickly rushed over to the students and was shocked at the state.
00:27:39The students looked quite young.
00:27:41They were a group of five.
00:27:42All of them had beast gear covering their bodies.
00:27:45The female was the first to approach them, named Lily, who also had a bow on her back.
00:27:50Only hers looked a level higher than what Layla had.
00:27:53Then there were a couple of bald twins.
00:27:56None of them held a weapon in their hand, but their legs were covered in thick boots,
00:28:00while the rest of their legs had light armor.
00:28:02It was a strange sight.
00:28:03They were called Rock and Pock.
00:28:06There was another man who seemed to be staying by the youngest-looking person's side.
00:28:10He had a shield on his back, with a sword sheathed at his waist.
00:28:14The man looked a little older than the others.
00:28:16It was as if he had been assigned to look after the whole team, but after listening
00:28:20to them for a while, Layla quickly figured out that he wasn't the leader.
00:28:24It was the young man standing next to them.
00:28:26The young man had brown, wavy hair that was tied up in a ponytail.
00:28:30His weapon of choice was a spear placed on his back.
00:28:33It was as long as him in length.
00:28:35The most noticeable thing about him was the air around him.
00:28:38I'm the leader, Andre, the young man said.
00:28:41What happened here?
00:28:42Did you guys get attacked?
00:28:43Loud footsteps could be heard in the shadows, where the team had come from.
00:28:47A figure slowly came out of the darkness.
00:28:50Another beast, and it looks like a strong one, Zia exclaimed in a panic.
00:28:54But the group of travelers didn't look panicked at all.
00:28:57The strange beast looked like a lion and was the same size as one.
00:29:01Its muscles could be seen as well, but on its bottom half, instead of a single tail,
00:29:05it carried several, each with a small flame at the end.
00:29:08The lion approached Andre's side and started to lick him in the face.
00:29:12A tame beast?
00:29:14Layla said.
00:29:15That's right, Lily replied.
00:29:17Andre, the leader of the group, had a beast by his side and he could very well control
00:29:21it, which meant that he belonged to the Brie family.
00:29:25Depending on their level and control of the ability, it allowed them to tame higher and
00:29:29lower level beasts.
00:29:30The Brie's were incredibly talented when it came to fighting, but while taming a stronger
00:29:35beast, one would have to show it was stronger than what it was trying to tame.
00:29:39With their incredible fighting skills and strong beasts, they were able to work together,
00:29:44creating a powerful force, and eventually climbed up the ladder to be a part of the
00:29:48Big Four.
00:29:49Trying to think quickly on his feet, Quinn took out the flask.
00:29:53However, even before Quinn was able to do that, a strange lion-like beast had jumped
00:29:58in between Vorden and the bloodsucker.
00:30:00As it pounced towards the bloodsucker, the flames on its tails grew brighter.
00:30:05The two of them clashed in the center, claw against paw, and surprisingly, it was outpowered
00:30:11and pushed back.
00:30:12Looks like you're going to need my help with this one, Cookie.
00:30:15The young man Andre held out his spear and stood by his lion's side.
00:30:19The two bald twins had appeared, one by Vorden's side and the other by Peter's side.
00:30:24You guys did well to survive against such a thing, one of them said, but you can now
00:30:28leave it to us, the other said, ending the first one's sentence.
00:30:32The twins were insistent, and before they could even reply, they were already trying
00:30:36to pull both Vorden and Peter out of the fighting area.
00:30:39The two boys were taken out of the area, and now, Andre and Andy felt like they could fight
00:30:44with no worry.
00:30:46It looks like this beast has some level of intelligence, Andre said as he jumped up onto
00:30:51Andy's shoulder, before running on top of his shield and jumping right on the edge towards
00:30:55the beast.
00:30:56From the side, Cookie, the lion beast, pounced once again.
00:31:00The flames this time on its tail were, even more, brighter than before, and when they
00:31:04clashed, neither one of them fell back.
00:31:07The bloodsucker seemed to be slightly stronger, but Andre wanted it held there for a moment.
00:31:12As he thrust his spear forward, he was able to hit the creature right between the ribs.
00:31:17Fex began to scream in pain as the pointy object was jammed into him.
00:31:21Get away from my friend, a strange robotic and deep voice was heard.
00:31:26As the group turned to look at the speaker, all they could see was a human figure dressed
00:31:30in a black suit, wearing a demon mask that was covering its bottom jaw, while its eyes
00:31:35were white and shaped like a demon.
00:31:38During the fight with the king-tier beast, he hadn't done this because they needed Fex
00:31:42in his bloodsucker form.
00:31:44What he didn't expect to happen was that the small group of travelers would be able
00:31:48to overpower the bloodsucker.
00:31:50After seeing him get stabbed in the ribs and howling in pain, Quinn had enough.
00:31:55Before jumping in to help Fex, Quinn had made the quick decision to put all of his points
00:32:00into the charm stat.
00:32:0122 charm points.
00:32:04This unlocked the next tier in his charm, and Quinn could tell that it would be different
00:32:08when he used it next.
00:32:09With no time to lose, Quinn needed to reveal himself from the shadows, targeting his blood
00:32:14swipe at the leader, Andre.
00:32:16"'Why did you attack me?
00:32:17We're trying to get rid of this beast,' Andre said, annoyed at the strange figure.
00:32:22Looking at Andre's fight against Fex, Quinn could tell he was strong.
00:32:26With the little HP he currently had, on top of no longer having any MC points to use his
00:32:31shadow ability, Quinn didn't want to do anything stupid like confront Andre and Andy.
00:32:36He quickly popped the lid of the flask, and straight away, he was able to smell the sweet
00:32:40aroma of blood coming from it.
00:32:42"'I hope this works,' Quinn said.
00:32:45And just like that, Fex turned his head, catching the same smell as Quinn.
00:32:49Now, this was the hard part.
00:32:52Immediately Quinn started to run off in the direction of the tower, and Fex chased after
00:32:56him.
00:32:57Both of them ran down the street into the darkness.
00:33:00Both of them were now invisible, since they were no longer in the sticky lights that Logan
00:33:04had shot on the street.
00:33:06Quinn started running at full speed, activating his windwalk boots, but he knew it would be
00:33:11useless with the great speed of the bloodsucker.
00:33:14The only thing he could do was run into buildings, to slow Fex down.
00:33:18In one of the abandoned buildings, there was an empty large room.
00:33:22He quickly placed the flask on the floor and ran aside.
00:33:25He was still unsure if Fex would continue chasing after him, or go after the flask.
00:33:30When Fex reached the flask on the floor, he immediately picked it up, using its clawed
00:33:35hands.
00:33:36He shook the flask and poured the contents into his mouth, without allowing a drop of
00:33:40it to touch the floor.
00:33:41''Well, I'm glad that's over with,'' Quinn said.
00:33:44While Fex was busy going back to his regular self, Quinn looked out the window and at the
00:33:48tower.
00:33:49''I wonder what's in there?''
00:33:50''Who was that guy?'' one of the twins said as he accepted Andre's hand to stand up from
00:34:11the ground.
00:34:12''I'm not sure.
00:34:13I haven't seen that ability before, either,'' Andre replied.
00:34:16''Most likely an original that's on this planet, or an independent traveler.
00:34:20Hey, I think you better come and take a look at this!''
00:34:22Andy shouted to the others.
00:34:24The three of them prodded along, and when their eyes made contact with what Andy was
00:34:28looking at, the two twins nearly keeled over from the shock.
00:34:32''That's the king-tiered beast we fought against before!'' the twins shouted.
00:34:37They had fought several times against the king beast as a team without Andre, so they
00:34:41knew the strength of the beast.
00:34:43''What do you think happened?''
00:34:44Andy asked.
00:34:46Andre then knelt beside the beast and started fleshing out certain parts of the beast's
00:34:50cadaver.
00:34:51They knew what he was doing.
00:34:52He was looking for the beast's crystal.
00:34:54It was located where the human heart would be, slightly to the left of the middle of
00:34:58the chest.
00:34:59The extracted crystal didn't look common at all.
00:35:02It was clearer and wasn't as murky and didn't radiate any light at all.
00:35:06''I'm surprised.
00:35:07There's still a crystal inside?
00:35:08How come it wasn't extracted?'' one of the twins said.
00:35:11''Perhaps it was killed recently,'' Andy replied.
00:35:14''Perhaps the creature and the strange man from before were the ones that killed it?''
00:35:18Andy said.
00:35:19''They were the only ones here at the time.''
00:35:20''No,'' Andre replied.
00:35:22''There were others here as well.''
00:35:25While saying this, Andre looked in the direction of Vorden and the others.
00:35:28On the cold floor of an abandoned building, Fex could be seen lying on the floor.
00:35:32Quinn didn't want to wake him up.
00:35:34He had gone far and beyond for the safety of others.
00:35:37''Maybe vampires aren't as bad as you say,'' Quinn said to the system.
00:35:41Thankfully, Quinn was able to hide his identity using the costume and mask Logan had created
00:35:45for him.
00:35:46Also, Fex was unrecognizable as the bloodsucker.
00:35:50He had his uniform on, but in the fight with the king-tiered beast, it was badly damaged
00:35:54and had been rendered unrecognizable.
00:35:57The travelers looked like they were trying to help Vorden and Peter.
00:36:00Once Fex woke up, Quinn would go and meet up with them before they left the cave.
00:36:05But before all of that, there was still one thing he wanted to check out before leaving.
00:36:09The tower.
00:36:10Finally, with Fex sleeping away, Quinn had a chance to look at all the rewards other
00:36:15than the EXP and the blood ability increase he had received.
00:36:19With the increase in blood skills, all his attacks related to blood skills had gotten
00:36:23stronger, but the most impressive of them all was the blood bank.
00:36:26It was now able to store double the amount of blood at 200 milliliters.
00:36:30''Quest reward, unlock one ability skill.''
00:36:34It seemed to be related to the shadow skill.
00:36:36''New skill, shadow eater unlocked.''
00:36:39He would look at the details of the skill later.
00:36:41He was a bit upset when he found out that he wasn't able to grab the king-tiered beast
00:36:45crystal, but in return, it seemed like the system had given him something else.
00:36:49''Small blood crystal one obtained.''
00:36:51''That is a very rare item.
00:36:54Although you have no use for it now, I suggest you store it in your system for safekeeping.''
00:36:58The system stated, refusing to elaborate.
00:37:01But hearing the system say such a thing was precious, it still placed a smile on Quinn's
00:37:05face.
00:37:06The last two notifications were the strangest.
00:37:09''Quest, reach level 20 for next evolution.''
00:37:11''Reward, next evolution vampire noble.''
00:37:14''Additional rewards will be revealed once rank has been reached.''
00:37:17''Quest, part one of two.
00:37:19The king has been defeated, and now the tower is left unprotected.
00:37:23Search the tower and discover what treasure it was trying to protect.''
00:37:27Suddenly he heard someone groaning behind him.
00:37:29It looked like Fex was waking up.
00:37:31''What the hell happened?''
00:37:33Fex said, looking around at where he was.
00:37:35He then looked down and noticed the flask on the floor.
00:37:39Images of his transformation into Bloodsucker appeared in his head, and he remembered everything
00:37:43that happened.
00:37:44''You saved me?''
00:37:45Fex said.
00:37:46''Come on, I can explain while we're making our way over.''
00:37:49Quinn replied.
00:37:50''Over where?''
00:37:51''To the tower.''
00:37:53The group of travelers had regrouped and were heading toward the students.
00:37:57Lily had been watching the fight carefully and wanted to join in, but she knew her duty
00:38:01was to stay by the students' side in case anything happened.
00:38:04As she saw the two twins walking over groggily, she rushed over to their side.
00:38:09''Are you both all right?
00:38:10I saw what happened.
00:38:11Who was that guy?'' she asked as she gave her shoulder to one of the bald twins.
00:38:16''That's what we want to know as well,'' Andre replied.
00:38:19''You students, your uniform, I assume you are from one of the military bases out on
00:38:24an outing.
00:38:25Second year, right?''
00:38:26''We're first years.''
00:38:27''What is the military thinking sending in first years?
00:38:30Have the times gotten that desperate?''
00:38:32''Well, if you look at the structures around us, perhaps,'' Andre said, ''I wanted to ask
00:38:37you guys, what happened?
00:38:38The King-Tier Beast on the ground, did you see what happened to it?
00:38:41And do you know what that other creature was?
00:38:43And last of all, what about the strange demon-masked man?''
00:38:46Peter, Vorden, and Layla wanted to keep their mouths shut.
00:38:51''That King-Tier Beast, it was killed by...it was killed by me.''
00:38:55Another voice interrupted before Sia was able to finish her sentence.
00:38:59''Logan, are you okay?'' Layla asked.
00:39:02''I'll live,'' Logan replied.
00:39:04''It took everything I had with the help of my friends here, but we were finally able
00:39:08to kill the King-Tier Beast.
00:39:10As for the strange person who appeared at the end, your guess is as good as ours.
00:39:14He only appeared when you guys saw him as well.''
00:39:17Andre started to think about Logan's words.
00:39:20They were convincing.
00:39:21Also, it was hard to imagine why the students would even lie in this type of situation when
00:39:26they had seen firsthand that the creature was trying to kill them.
00:39:30On the other hand, there was also Sia.
00:39:32She didn't know who the masked man was while the others did, but what she did know was
00:39:36that Fex was the one who had turned into a monster and Quinn was nowhere to be seen after
00:39:41killing the King-Tier.
00:39:43She wasn't completely stupid.
00:39:45Quinn had been using the red aura attacks, and the masked man had done the same.
00:39:50Most likely, Quinn was trying to protect Fex.
00:39:53''Okay, I've decided then,'' Andre said.
00:39:55''Let's take them back to the shelter.''
00:39:57The students and the group of travelers started to head out of the small town.
00:40:01While doing so, Vorden and Layla would constantly look around, hoping to find Quinn and Fex.
00:40:06''I hope you bring me a nice souvenir to work on from that tower, Quinn,'' Logan thought.
00:40:11''Logan, I don't think I can hold it in for much longer.''
00:40:14''What?''
00:40:15''If you want to go to the toilet, just go.
00:40:17It's too dark here anyway.
00:40:18Nobody will see anything.''
00:40:19''No, it's not that.''
00:40:22Hearing those words, Logan knew straight away what Peter meant.
00:40:26He was hungry.
00:40:27Before heading off to the tower, Quinn made sure of two things.
00:40:30The first thing was that his MC points were fully restored.
00:40:34The second thing was that he was fully equipped with all his equipment.
00:40:37Of course, that included his suit, which was made by Logan.
00:40:41There was no more blood in the flask.
00:40:43Fex had consumed all of it, and in doing so, it looked like his wounds were healing too.
00:40:49The armor that Logan created gave him some additional defense.
00:40:52Although it wasn't much, every little increment would help, and this was his reason for putting
00:40:57it on.
00:40:58''Are you all ready then?''
00:40:59Quinn asked Fex.
00:41:00''Quinn, wait!''
00:41:02Fex said as he rushed over and bowed down on one knee with his fist on the floor.
00:41:06''Whoa, what's this all about?''
00:41:07''I have to do this, please.
00:41:09Quinn, you saved my life.
00:41:11I remember everything that happened while I was the bloodsucker.
00:41:14You fought against those travelers and risked me chasing after you.
00:41:18Finally, you used the flask that I had given you to save me.''
00:41:22This whole time, he had been getting closer to Quinn for one reason, to save his own back.
00:41:27If he was ever to be found out by his clan, then Fex's idea was to turn Quinn in as one
00:41:32of the shadow users.
00:41:34While Quinn had never thought about abandoning him, Fex no longer cared about how he was
00:41:38able to do it or why he seemed to keep growing stronger.
00:41:42He had just had this feeling of guilt over his heart that he wanted to get rid of.
00:41:46''I'm on your side, Quinn.''
00:41:49Quinn didn't know what to say.
00:41:51At the time, Quinn had only done what he felt was right.
00:41:54Fex had risked his life to save the whole group.
00:41:56What right did he have to die by the hand of strangers?
00:41:59Quinn didn't know why, but he naturally walked over to Fex and extended his hand.
00:42:04Fex in return naturally took it and lifted himself.
00:42:07''We're blood brothers from now on,'' Fex said with a smile.
00:42:11''We may not be related by blood, but I will treat you as a part of my family.
00:42:15And I will do the same.''
00:42:17After slowly creeping their way towards the tower by going through buildings rather than
00:42:22going down the open street towards the tower, it seemed like they hadn't seen a single beast
00:42:27on their way there.
00:42:28''Is it the strange crystals from the top of the tower or did the other beasts stay
00:42:32away from this place because of the king-tier beast?''
00:42:35Quinn thought.
00:42:36''The crystals shone brightly at the top and gave off a slightly blue hue to the area below
00:42:42it.''
00:42:43''You can take some time to explore if you're worried.
00:42:45What do you mean?''
00:42:46The others would leave with those travelers.
00:42:48More than likely, they already know of an exit.
00:42:50''I asked my little Ham to follow them from above.
00:42:53Once he knows where the exit is, he'll come and find me.''
00:42:56''Ham, is that the little flying bull from earlier?''
00:42:59''Yeah, good name, right?''
00:43:02Ignoring Fex's last words, Quinn continued to walk up to the tower.
00:43:06In the middle of the door, there was a circular hole that seemed to go a few inches deep.
00:43:10''It's a lock,'' Fex said.
00:43:12''These doors, I've seen them in my castle before.
00:43:15They're impossible to open without some type of key or mechanism.
00:43:19They're meant to even withstand attacks from the vampire leaders.''
00:43:21''Doesn't that mean there's something important here?''
00:43:25''Yeah, but I don't know what.''
00:43:27Going up to the door, Quinn decided to try and give it a push using all his strength.
00:43:31He was half expecting it to do something, but as Fex had informed him, it didn't budge
00:43:36at all.
00:43:37''I told you it was pointless, man.
00:43:39Don't give up yet,'' the system said.
00:43:41''Do you remember that red blood crystal you received from defeating the King Tier Beast?
00:43:45Why don't you place that on the door and see what happens?''
00:43:48He took out the crystal from his inventory and placed it in the strange hole inside the
00:43:52door.
00:43:53The gears shifted and the door pulled inwards, opening a way up inside the tower.
00:43:58''Are you coming?''
00:44:00Ham was up in the air while looking down at the fairly large town.
00:44:04He was slowly following the group of students, along with the travelers, to see where they
00:44:08were heading.
00:44:09''I hope Master is all right,'' Ham said.
00:44:12''Peter, how long can you hold out?''
00:44:14''Until we get outside, I might be able to do something by then,'' Peter immediately
00:44:18looked up at Logan from his position.
00:44:20His eyes were starting to show a slight tint of red in them.
00:44:24''Okay, looks like you won't last that long.''
00:44:26Finally, the group had reached one of the tunnels that led out of the city.
00:44:31While walking through the tunnels, Logan had come up with an idea.
00:44:34''So, with all these tunnels, how do you guys know the way out?
00:44:38These tunnels are like a maze, and they either seem to loop with each other or all end up
00:44:42going back to the original town we just left from.
00:44:44In the end, we never found an exit, so we decided to create our own.
00:44:48In one of the tunnels, we marked ourselves.''
00:44:51Logan had scanned the place before coming down, so he knew there was a space between
00:44:55the surface and the ground they were currently on and was prepared for it.
00:44:59It was a sad thought, but some of the other students were consumed by the strange, plant-like
00:45:04beast.
00:45:05All Logan needed to do was to make them split up with the others and search through the
00:45:09tunnels for one of these dead students that Peter could feed on.
00:45:13Finally, the group exited the tunnel and entered another larger section with several more tunnels.
00:45:19The second they entered the room, though, Peter loudly screamed as if he was in pain.
00:45:24It seemed too sudden.
00:45:25By Logan's predictions, they should have had more time.
00:45:28Looking around the room, though, he soon spotted the cause.
00:45:32His theory was right.
00:45:34Substudents had fallen to their deaths after being consumed by the plant because there
00:45:38were a couple of students in front of them.
00:45:40The smell and sight of the students had caused a reaction inside him.
00:45:44Not knowing what to do, Logan rushed towards Peter with his suit still on and picked him
00:45:48up from the ground.
00:45:50Peter remained motionless in the same position, not even moving his hands.
00:45:54He just kept groaning.
00:45:56By now, he was using every bit of energy and was concentrating on not lashing out and going
00:46:01toward the students.
00:46:03But even more so, he didn't want to bite his friend Logan, who was carrying him right now.
00:46:08Logan kept running with Peter on his shoulder, picking a tunnel at random.
00:46:12Wait!
00:46:13What are you doing?
00:46:14Lily shouted.
00:46:15The others had already gone over to inspect the other students to see if they were still
00:46:19alive and if there was anything they could do.
00:46:22Unaware of the commotion going on behind them, they only realized something was happening
00:46:26when Lily shouted out to them.
00:46:28Wait!
00:46:29Lily shouted out again, genuinely concerned for the two, so she decided to chase after
00:46:33them.
00:46:34Suddenly, Logan's hand had transformed into one of his blasters.
00:46:38He aimed it at the ceiling and blasted it away, causing the tunnel to crumble down,
00:46:43blocking the path between them.
00:46:45We should go after them, Lily suggested.
00:46:47No, Andre replied.
00:46:49Couldn't you see it?
00:46:50The other student caused the tunnel to collapse on purpose.
00:46:53For now, it's best if we leave that mystery unsolved and head back to the base.
00:46:57The group continued to walk through the tunnels while also instructing the students to look
00:47:02away from the dead bodies.
00:47:04Why do you think they ran off?
00:47:05Layla asked Vorden.
00:47:07If I was to guess, it would have something to do with Peter again.
00:47:10Logan wouldn't put his neck out on the line like that for no reason.
00:47:14Do you think Logan will be okay?
00:47:16What if Peter gets hungry again and tries to eat Logan?
00:47:20Impossible.
00:47:21Trust me, by now you should have been able to tell.
00:47:23Logan is not the one to worry about if the two of them get into a fight.
00:47:27It's Peter.
00:47:28Although that might have been the case before, Logan had used up several of his trump cards
00:47:33in the fight against the King-tier beast.
00:47:35He was also a bit injured from the battle, and lastly, Quinn had grown stronger from
00:47:39the fight.
00:47:40That meant Peter had to as well.
00:47:46Hi, Quinn here.
00:47:47Wondering what happens next?
00:47:49If you want to jump the queue and unleash all episodes, click on the link here and install
00:47:53the PocketFM app.
00:47:59Once the doors were fully open, several torches lit up inside the tower, as if leading the
00:48:04way for the two of them.
00:48:06You have entered a vampire tomb.
00:48:08Quest, explore the tower is now in progress.
00:48:11Quinn thought.
00:48:12System, did you know what this was?
00:48:14I had my guesses, but I couldn't be so sure, the system replied.
00:48:18These are two things I should warn you about before you proceed.
00:48:22First, a vampire tomb doesn't necessarily mean a vampire is dead.
00:48:26A vampire can choose to go into eternal slumber, which is similar to death, but not the same.
00:48:32Eternal slumber means a vampire has chosen to go to sleep forever themselves.
00:48:37It's a permanent state, and there is only one way to be woken up from it, by consuming
00:48:42the blood of someone of the same family.
00:48:45My guess is two things.
00:48:46Either the vampire was a powerful one, and his magic was so great he was able to convince
00:48:51the king-tier beast to act as a guard.
00:48:54To keep it under its control for so long, it handed the blood crystal which you obtained
00:48:59after defeating the beast.
00:49:01My second guess would be that after the beast found the blood crystal, it was compelled
00:49:05to this area.
00:49:07Something was telling it that there was something powerful inside, and it didn't know how to
00:49:11use it.
00:49:12At the same time, it couldn't leave this place due to its curiosity of power.
00:49:18Excited by this prospect, he started to jog after Fex, who had gone quite a way ahead.
00:49:24After they both followed the torches down the path, it eventually led them to a large
00:49:28staircase leading upward.
00:49:30The two of them powered through the many stairs and didn't feel very tired.
00:49:34However, they did feel like the stairs would go on forever, and were wondering when they
00:49:38would end.
00:49:39Finally, the stairs had leveled out onto a platform, and another large door could be
00:49:44seen.
00:49:45It was the same size as the one at the entrance, only this one didn't have a strange lock-like
00:49:51mechanism.
00:49:52Up ahead after the platform were even more stairs leading up, suggesting they hadn't
00:49:56reached the top yet.
00:49:59With a strong push, the doors opened.
00:50:01Torches around the room suddenly lit up.
00:50:04It was a fairly large square room, but at the same time it was completely bare.
00:50:09There was nothing inside the room apart from five podiums in the center of the room.
00:50:14Each podium had an item on it.
00:50:16They were pieces of armor, a chest piece, a leg piece, an arm piece, and a helmet.
00:50:21Lastly, on the final podium was a ring.
00:50:24"'This is ancient old vampire combat armor.
00:50:27Maybe you can wear this,' Fex said as he picked up the ring of the podium.
00:50:32In an instant, the room felt like it was starting to shake.
00:50:35"'What did you do?'
00:50:36Quinn complained.
00:50:37A strange circular cylinder-like shape lifted from the podium and covered each of the items.
00:50:43The cylinder went all the way up to the ceiling of the room they were in.
00:50:47Once the cylinders were formed, the vibration stopped, and it didn't seem like anything
00:50:51else was going to happen.
00:50:54Seeing what had happened, Quinn could only assume the other items were locked away once
00:50:58Fex had picked up the ring.
00:51:00Perhaps the same thing would have happened after touching any of the items.
00:51:04Maybe the vampire who slept here was giving them a choice.
00:51:07A reward for discovering the place, but rather than give them everything, he gifted them
00:51:12a single piece of his treasure.
00:51:14"'Here,' Fex said as he threw the ring over to Quinn.
00:51:18He caught the ring in the air and took a look at it.
00:51:20"'Inspect.
00:51:21A king-tier blocking ring.
00:51:23When used on a vampire, it will completely block the effects of sunlight, as long as
00:51:28the ring is worn.'
00:51:29With this ring, the one weakness Quinn possessed had disappeared.
00:51:33A huge smile went over his face as he quickly placed the ring on.
00:51:38When Logan turned back to look down the tunnel from where they came from, he had saw that
00:51:42no one had followed them.
00:51:43Even with Peter on his shoulder, he never slowed down.
00:51:46He kept running down the tunnel until they eventually reached an open space that had
00:51:50a lot of different paths and tunnels for them to choose from.
00:51:54It was similar to one of the areas where they had just come from.
00:51:57"'Let go of me!' Peter shouted, with his eyes now fully red and glowing in the dark.
00:52:03Logan felt the weight on his shoulder was about to shift.
00:52:06He could tell that something was up and immediately threw Peter off his shoulder, slamming him
00:52:11onto the ground.
00:52:12Peter lifted his head and got a glimpse of Logan, who now had his blaster pointed toward
00:52:16him.
00:52:17"'You're still in there, right, Peter?' said Logan.
00:52:20But Peter suddenly started to seize, his body furiously shook as he thrashed around on the
00:52:25floor.
00:52:27Seeking for some kind of solution, Logan picked out and held out his altered-hand scanner.
00:52:32If it just worked, then he would be able to scan the tunnels and find out where the other
00:52:36deceased students were located.
00:52:38Instead of walking through blindly and playing their chances, they would at least have some
00:52:42benchmark as to where they should go.
00:52:45But for some reason, ever since coming down underground, the scanner was useless.
00:52:49"'Why won't you work?' Logan said, and Peter was now standing in front of him with his
00:52:54head facing down towards the ground.
00:52:57It was unknown whether he had recovered his sanity or if he had already been taken over
00:53:02by his hunger and primal urges.
00:53:05After Quinn and Fex realized that there was nothing the two of them could do to retrieve
00:53:09their items, they decided to leave the room.
00:53:12On the final platform, there was another large, arch-shaped double door like the one before.
00:53:17It also had no lock, and all the two needed to do was push it open with their two hands.
00:53:23Just like every room they had entered before, the lights started to light up one by one,
00:53:27revealing what the room looked like.
00:53:29From the door to the center room was a large red carpet.
00:53:33It reached the center, where there was a very large circle on the ground.
00:53:37Past this was a red carpet on the other end of the circle, which continued forward until
00:53:42it eventually reached a large chair.
00:53:45Looking at the large chair, or throne, it looked like only a person of significance
00:53:50would be allowed to sit in such a place.
00:53:53That was when Quinn spotted something while looking at the throne, but just behind the
00:53:57chair, a little bit above, it looked like a clear glass pane, and inside was a large
00:54:02sword-like weapon.
00:54:04The sword didn't look regular, even though it was locked away behind a glass casing.
00:54:08It seemed to have several black chains wrapped around it, from the hilt up to the tip of
00:54:13the blade.
00:54:14While looking at the blade closer, he could tell it was a beast blade rather than just
00:54:18a regular sword.
00:54:20The handguard seemed to be quite scaly and rocky.
00:54:23It was red and had a pattern that matched the armor they had seen earlier.
00:54:27Between the handguard and the bladed part was a red gem.
00:54:30It looked very similar to the crystal that Quinn had obtained after defeating the King
00:54:34Tyr beast.
00:54:36From the crystal inside the sword, a single red line ran up the blade until the tip, placing
00:54:41his clawed gauntlet fingertips on the glass pane covering it.
00:54:45He started to use all his strength, hoping to make a scratch or an indentation.
00:54:50Just like with all of the materials they had discovered before in the tower, it was almost
00:54:54unbreakable for him.
00:54:56He took a step back, and once again, the room seemed to slightly vibrate.
00:55:01In front of the sword, a podium started to rise.
00:55:05The vibration stopped in the room, and so did the podium.
00:55:08On top, there was a diamond-shaped hole.
00:55:11As he gently ran his fingers over the top of the podium, another message appeared.
00:55:15Would you like to insert your blood crystal?
00:55:18Once inserted, the blood crystal may not be removed.
00:55:21Yes?
00:55:22No?
00:55:23What exactly can a blood crystal be used for?
00:55:25Quinn asked the system in his head.
00:55:27The system said,
00:55:28The blood crystal can be used as a beast crystal.
00:55:31They are used to either create armor or weapons.
00:55:34The unique thing about a blood weapon is that it can evolve and grow stronger.
00:55:38However, depending on the crystal used, there is a limit to its growth and also its starting
00:55:43point.
00:55:44What you have right now in your hand is the lowest tier of blood crystals.
00:55:48He looked at the weapon behind the glass case once again, and it was like nothing he had
00:55:52seen before.
00:55:53Is that a blood weapon?
00:55:55Yes, the system replied.
00:55:57Small blood crystal has been inserted.
00:56:00The room started to shake slightly once again, and the podium, along with the crystal, started
00:56:05to sink into the ground slowly.
00:56:07Next explore the tower complete.
00:56:10After standing there for a few moments, he quickly realized that nothing was happening.
00:56:15The glass covering the sword was still there.
00:56:18Somewhere else, underground at the same time, Logan was backing steadily away, holding out
00:56:23his blaster at Peter.
00:56:25He hadn't made any moves yet, but he could see his body slowly breathing in and out,
00:56:30not moving a step from his position.
00:56:33Using one of his hands, he picked up the scanner and immediately turned it on.
00:56:37For some reason, the scanner was online.
00:56:40After quickly scanning the tunnels around them, Logan found what he was looking for.
00:56:44In one of the tunnels to his right, not too far from here, were the bodies of some students
00:56:49who had met an unfortunate end after falling from above.
00:56:52Yes, Peter, I think I can solve your problem.
00:56:56In Logan's excitement, he had placed both eyes on the scan only for a brief second.
00:57:01When he looked up, Peter was no longer standing where he was directly in front of him.
00:57:06Back in the strange tower, Quinn realized what was the change he was feeling.
00:57:10After inserting the blood crystal into the podium, it seemed like whatever was blocking
00:57:14out his senses before was no longer there.
00:57:18He could now clearly sense Peter.
00:57:20With this, shock had entered his heart.
00:57:23Sensing Peter now, he could feel a mix of emotions and feelings rush over his mind and
00:57:28body.
00:57:29Damn it!
00:57:30Is this because of the fight from before?
00:57:31Quinn said.
00:57:32We have to hurry and get back to the others.
00:57:35A process had begun when the blood crystal was inserted into the podium and went back
00:57:39into the floor.
00:57:41The center circle started to rise from the floor, and it finally stopped when it reached
00:57:45a height a little larger than an average human.
00:57:48A few seconds later, the metal circle's cylinder dropped quickly back down to the ground and
00:57:53left in its place was a human figure.
00:57:56It was a handsome male figure with pale white skin and dark black hair that seemed to go
00:58:01all the way down to the person's waist.
00:58:04Slowly, his eyes opened and a red glow could be seen.
00:58:07I wonder how long I've been asleep, the man said.
00:58:12Holding out his hand with his hand open, he faced it towards the weapon behind the glass.
00:58:17A strange force compelled it towards the man, and the weapon smashed through the glass and
00:58:22into the man's hand.
00:58:23Let's see if anything has changed in the outside world, the man said.
00:58:28Hi, Quinn here.
