"They aren't vegetarians, I can swear on my life for this, tsk!" Ibra shook his glaive, before landing over many guerrillas behind the protection of William's weapons.
William had to exert more control over his weapons, creating gaps for his friends' attacks and weapons to pass through. If not, then their attacks would land on his weapons, harming and damaging them instead.
"They can foresee few seconds ahead of time," Karoline shouted from behind, "they can get wounded, won't die that easily."
"In the middle of all this craziness, I doubt they can evade a fly!" William knew what she said would be troublesome if they were fighting a little group of these monsters.
Against such an insane number of guerrillas, enough to fill the entire world to the horizon, he knew it'd be impossible to try and evade anything, "keep firing your techniques and weapons, use anything you have and don't spare any. Keep a close eye over your spirit power, replenish it when needed…"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe started to relay his orders and advice, warnings and tips about how to kill these monsters. They weren't the same youngsters he met five years ago, got into lots of battles and experienced many dark moments.
So they didn't lose their cool, instead venting out all their frustration, worries, and even fears over these monsters.
As the initial clashes passed, the fight turned to look like any usual monster battle. They kept killing the monsters coming at them for an entire hour, piling up lots of heaps around, formed of dead meat guerrillas.
"Karoline, I have a task for you…" William suddenly turned to the only person in the team who didn't do anything but shout and yell, speaking about these monsters' weak and strong points.
"Not again! Did you hail from a family of scavengers or thieves or what? I grew tired of this, tsk!"
"Shut up! I'm not asking you to do it," William evilly laughed, and his hidden threat reached Ibra's mind, making the latter keep what he wanted to say only to himself.
"What do you want me to do?" Karoline was excited and eager to do anything to help. Watching everyone fighting like this aroused her old brutal and bloody nature deep within her spirit. But she was too weak to take part in this battle, and would turn into a burden if she tried to do so.
"I'm going to push my weapons a little bit further," William paused, throwing a thin and long sword over to her, with a black ring, "this ring has many rings stored within. You'll do this…"
He started to explain the usual and infamous habit of the Fox Guild that was known far and wide anywhere they went to. They were infamous for their love to collect loot, from enemies and allies alike, without any shame or regret.
The most amazing thing about this was how they did it. They didn't wait like others until the battle would be over, but did it in the middle of the ongoing heated fights.
They didn't care whose their enemies were, they'd divide themselves into two teams, one to fight and kill, and the other to loot and collect spoils of war.
Any battle they'd take part in, all the forces and masters there would realise they'd get scraps in the end. Even with knowing this, no one dared to compete with them, as they'd instantly prevent anyone from stealing their loot, even using their enemies and letting them come to hit those trying to take part of their loot away with cold blood.
Such infamy made any master force restless when they'd hear about the presence of the Fox Guild members. But who'd say no to such a grand help? After all, the guild members were strong, using unique and weird ways to fight, not known in the entire world.
By learning this, Karoline was considered as an official member of the guild and the special Black Tails team. Unlike what others thought, she was pretty much excited about doing this, even laughed while dissecting monsters' bodies and collecting everything!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWilliam told her to collect even the meat and bones! He wanted everything from these monsters, regretting not having a life storage device and only rings.
He intended to buy a life storage device once getting out from this black hole, which would transfer all the monster organs. They'd come handy later on, as they got the right conditions to be used in performing the mystic arts.
As Karoline filled the gap of this task, everyone felt familiar with their team. "Time to push forward," after a few hours, they killed tons of monsters, and Karoline finished collecting their parts, "let's walk slowly, follow my steps!"
Even if they fought for hours, the monsters didn't show any sign of losing numbers. They kept filling the entire world, coming with the same viciousness and eagerness to feast on their flesh.
Up so far, the highest grade monster they met was only at gold grade. Against William's dark gold grade weapons, and his friends' high grade weapons and strength, they didn't struggle that much… Yet!
The first challenge didn't come from monsters, but from the terrain around. They were walking so far in open plains, yet ended up passing through hills and valleys, irregular paths that were filled with different sized hard and sharp rocks. They had to be extra careful, as Karoline warned them from these rocks.
"They are poisonous! Back when I came here, I ended up with a scratch when I touched one of these accidentally. I had to sleep for an entire month, and consume tons of herbs to heal!"
William knew she wasn't exaggerating this, instead she might be underestimating these rocks. If she, one who was at the pinnacle of power back then, ended up getting wounded, then they'd instantly die! Not to mention the fact that these rocks were able to wound her was something incredible.
William led everyone around, had to even stop many times to check the right path to take.
