Chapter 114: Hidden passage [3]

There are a lot of reasons why a hidden passage was buried in the first place, either they became a threat or they defied the rules of the game. That remained living without anyone knowing their existence, I don’t think it was a coincidence that I was sent here because of something or someone that will be important in the near future. Within this distorted realm that was able to preserve a few of the living and their items after a thousand years

“It’s a little calmer than what we’ve experienced yesterday,” Esther notices a bunch of ancient ruins in their surroundings after the snowstorm has ended

[System: You’ve discovered ancient scriptures, the system exclusive skill Translator has been activated you can now understand the word’s scribbled on the rocks]

[Leave this place, never turn back no matter what you mustn’t enter the territory of the devils. If you’re a brave traveler in hopes to gain fame and glory try and leave this place unscathed by the dangers it contains]

“It’s a warning looks like we’re outside the range of the trials contained within this realm, I think we need to enter its vicinity before we get an update on our mission,” Lillith noticed their entrance was in the opposite direction of the sign meaning they’ll have to take their chances to enter the lands that warned them not to enter

’This is a little suspicious why isn’t there even a single monster that appeared even once after that group we killed? Is there something that we haven’t interacted with maybe I missed something within the rocks filled with that ancient language? Worrying isn’t going to do anything, Morgan, Sun, and Moon I need the three of you on guard for any kind of dangers that I can’t detect,’

Even without anything that occurred in their presence, the three of them were wary about their surroundings after they took a step further. Not even a single presence of a monster was detected in their journey it felt a little weird for their Trials to be this peaceful until they passed from a ton of clouds that covered a Gigantic castle from afar. By the time they noticed the monsters growl they ducked to the ground covering their body in a few layers of snow. They looked at the location of the noises to see a few monsters with an iron carriage that was filled with a ton of people accompanied by hundreds of monsters that Elites, Greater and above making their way through the thick and harsh surrounding areas to the castle they previously saw along with a new message from the system

[Frost guard: You’ve arrived at the scene you’ll now be given a mission no matter what you decided to do it will have both a positive/negative effect on your total reward

Trigger story: 0/1

Find the trigger to activate the quest function, your surrounding areas have the highest probability of finding a trigger]

“A trigger huh? It’s been a long time since I needed to find the trigger to activate the quest,”

[System: You’ve summoned Familiar Sun, Moon, Origin (Morgan) to your location]

“Father is there something that you needed us to be called?” Morgan appeared in his front while she stands on the snow-covered ground without feeling any change in her condition

“You’re surprised about that Owner? Aren’t you forgetting that what your seeing is just a mere copy of our true form? A vessel that’s only used for combat purposes, because of that we can’t feel anything within our surroundings. But we can eat and fill our bodies instead of draining away your Mp,”

“And here I thought you inherited my stupidity, it looks like you’re just lazy as fuck. I can’t believe that I have you as a Familiar, well I didn’t call the three of you here to have a simple chat. It looks like I need your help with the surrounding areas it’s too wide for the three of us to split our numbers, so what better way to use you guys, Sun and Moon the two of you will be in charge of tailing those monsters. Morgan, I need you to search the area for anything suspicious!”

[System: The player Christopher Morris has activated the skill Concurrent flow, you’ll now enter the state of duality increasing your basic stats for the next 20 seconds]

Both of them dodge an attack that came from the south a gigantic arrow bolt fired from the top of a mountain revealing the location of their adversary before they fired another round of arrow bolts that overwhelmed the two completely. It was unlike any other projectile the two have witnessed even with its big and heavy design they were able to be shot at a speed where they need to try their hardest in dodging with a simple graze that could split the ground until its momentum has disappeared

“The heck can’t anyone just greet me without even pointing their weapons or aiming their skills at me? Morgan, go looks like I found a clue of my own, I’ll create an opening so you could leave, manipulate my surroundings, reshape my terrain appear before me Glacial array!” He turned the frozen terrains into his very own domain manipulating every land that he could move he created a wall thick enough for the bolts to be blocked. Making Morgan’s escape a little easier than he expected before he pushed the wall to his opponent’s location slamming the terrains that caused the snow on the top of the mountain to fall causing a massive avalanche to occur

[Why did you do that?]

“I have no other choice it’s either dying from those arrow bolts or my dead body,” The whole area where he distanced himself from the two was trembling after his actions resulted in an avalanche. That got him swept away along with the rest that we’re previously trying their hardest to bring to place him in a snowy grave, had their locations along with their turrets pushed back

They were about to reach their end from the massive amounts of snow that piled up which was blocked by the terrains that previously targeted them resulting in their current situation, it was a matter of time before they got struck by an orb that exploded causing a flood within their close space. Paired with another attack that came from the water they were soaked with shocking them until they were given the paralysis effect that made them unable to move their bodies while their view was fixed on the entrance of the terrain, only to get a glimpse of what they assumed to be a monster from afar was a player wearing the fur coat

[Appraisal: Race is being appraised, Race isn’t available in the current system category. The appraisal function of your blessing will now undergo a long processing procedure to identify the Race of species you’ve encountered]

With his skills concerning message after he tried to appraise the masked individuals that targeted him from afar, he took a closer look at their features. Wearing a bunch of animal-like armor that made them look like a monster, to their mask that hides their pale skins and their Antlers sticking out like some kind of ornament. Their features made him think of a certain character that existed within his novel, bearing the same features as the ones that attacked him

Chapter 359 Monstrous Hunter

Within these cold and harsh lands, where I found myself after I escaped from the clutches of that monster, I found myself standing in front of a bigger threat than before. A Fully Grown Frost troll was standing in front of me, 24 feet tall that bearing an Epic rank to its name, I thought that was the end of me until I was saved by a pale man

Wearing nothing but a mask to conceal his face and without any sort of coat to cover his body from the harsh winter night, the monster pointed its attention to that masked player, I looked at his movements down to his footwork, which was used to gather up his power to release a powerful swing

[System: The player has gathered his mana to a single point of his body]

The last thing I saw was the monster’s corpse lying on the ground which was vanquished with a single strike of his blunted blade. I never thought that moment will come when I’ll encounter someone stronger than me, later I found out his name along with his achievements Gaust Frizzleight the player with the title Monstrous Hunter

[System: You’ve made a discovery that was seen as a great achievement by the system you’ve been granted 20 unused points. Frostherus Race has been added to the player category as a forgotten race that was recently found]

“Talk before I lose my patience!” Morris pointed his knife at the Frostherus even if they pleaded for their lives, the rage that he acquired from their sudden attacks hadn’t disappeared even with their Races significance within his novel
