Young Master in the Apocalypse

In total, Viktor's group had been in the Siberian Wilderness for six weeks.

According to his plan, Viktor still had two more weeks before he could finally dive into the abyss Pitt. During that time, he would complete 30 levels of the unfinished first Pillar to train recruits.

Even though they had been grinding for over a month, they were still not ready to fight the monsters in the abyss Pitt. In terms of strength they were on par with the Sky Realm in general, but still not in terms of ability.

And now, Viktor's party was preparing to head to the pillar to break through level 60 for the second time.

Only, this time they were accompanied by a special guest--Albert Romanov.

Albert still wants to have Metal Guardian. For that, he took part in the ascent so that he could extract information about it. He was also curious, wanting to see firsthand how strong the person who managed to defeat the strongest Saint Realm in the Red Faction was.

Different from before, on this climb the recruits fought with more discipline and order. They followed every instruction Anna gave. The bitter experience against the Orc Champion taught them a lesson. Likewise with Anna.

This time she did not use the same strategy as before. Anna tried out new tactics that she had thought up the night before leaving for the pillar. She realized that situations could quickly change and often got out of control, unable to rely on the tactics she had learned previously.

While Viktor fight just as usual.

He fought very aggressively. He plunged into the sea of ​​monsters and finished them off. This time, unlike before, he didn't use the ax which was his signature weapon.

The recruits were used to witnessing Metal Guardian's fierceness in battle.

Albert watched it all with his eyes and mouth wide open. A Sky Realm, killing hundreds of monsters the size of a bulldozer alone, without weapons and only armed with bare hands covered in metal.

While the two Saint Realm bodyguards behind him seemed to be looking at Viktor with sharp eyes. The two of them were observing the limits of a Metal Guardian's abilities.

After clearing many levels, the two of them were confident that they could face Viktor, even though he was at the Saint Realm stage.

Viktor deliberately fought without using his dual ax weapons. Other than to mater his fist technique, He also intends to show off his power to Albert so that he becomes even more obsessed with Metal Guardian.

If his cousin were more obsessed with the metal guardian, Viktor could maybe take advantage of Albert one day.

However, Viktor realized that it was not only Metal Guardian that Albert wanted to capture.

When reaching level 51, after fighting the Orc Champion army, Albert's attention was distracted by Anna.

Albert came to Anna with his two bodyguards. He greeted her in an arrogant tone. After that he spoke arbitrarily and some of his words seemed condescending; such as calling him a chef's son, making dirty jokes, and even inviting him to spend the night in his tent.

But Anna herself seemed calm in responding to it all.

"Anna, are you aware that you lick your own spit? You said you didn't want anything to do with the Romanovs. But now you're working under another Romanov."

Albert shook his head.

The veins on Anna's face tightened. "Listen. I did all to carry out a task given by Heaven's Will guild. This has nothing to do with your cousin."

Then Albert laughed. "After Romanov, now Heaven's Will.. I get it" Then he clapped.

Viktor could only silently listen to Albert's every word. Viktor's chest felt hot, but his head was still cold. He was still conscious enough to prioritize the secrecy of the Metal Guardian's identity.

Anna then smiled. "Right, just like how you become a dog for your uncle?"

Anna's last sentence was harsh enough to make Albert angry. Meanwhile, Viktor smiled broadly from behind his metal mask.

Their feud ended.

Then they proceeded to level 51. The fight against the Orc Champion was enough to make the recruits start sweating. Especially when it reaches level 56 and above.

Thus, they managed to break through again to level 60.

All finished within 10 days.

From the results of this climb, Viktor only gets 28 spirit forces after completing 30 levels.

[Spirit force - 191]

Just a 9 points more to advance his realm

In the hall level 60, Viktor then gathered 1000 people and give a short greeting.

"Once again I thank you. Thanks to the hard work and understanding of all of you, we broke through level 60 of the pillar twice."

"Yeah!" The cheers of the recruits echoed through the hall.

"This hike will be the last. The first stage on the expedition to the north was completed. The next stage, we are going to the abyss pitt!"

Once again, the sound of thunderous cheers rattled the air. Hearing their cheers, Viktor smiled from behind the mask. He himself couldn't wait to go there and farm as many spirit stones as possible.

After hearing the speech, everyone descended the pillar and returned to the camp.

Arriving at the campsite, Albert just approached Viktor. He had been waiting for Albert to talk to him all the way up and down the Pillar.

As usual, with an arrogant gaze and an intimidating tone, Albert offered Viktor the opportunity to work under him.

"Metal Guardian, after seeing the battle at Pillar earlier, I became even more convinced that you are a very talented person. It would be a shame if you worked under my cousin."

Viktor remained silent. He deliberately didn't answer

"If you join me, I will provide enough resources to maximize your potential."

After saying what he came to say, Albert and his two bodyguards quickly went to his tent.

Viktor looked at his cousin's back with a smile, he can't wait to take advantage of him one day.
