The force of the wind fired out from his hands blasted the monkeys in a blink of an eye. Many weak fragile monkeys exploded into black mist before even hitting the trees. His smile turned into a disappointed look. He really wished he could get experience points from all these dead monkeys or at least some badass points. At Least he wanted to reach Core Formation level 8 somehow before competing in the championship tournaments.
Putting his thoughts aside, he looked around to see if there's any monkeys remaining but there wasn't a single monkey in the surroundings.
"I wonder if Dular will be able to control these Netherels" He couldn't help asking this question to himself. If Dular was able to control them, he would have an army of the dead under his command to do his bidding.
"Is everyone alright?" somewhere deeper in the forest, finally Ross and the group stopped running. Ross asked as he noticed their missing teammate,
"Where's David?"
"I don't think that freak made it," Maria said. Everyone turned their gazes at Logan as he was the last person to see David.
"He'll come. It'd take more than some undead monkeys to kill him" Logan said with utmost confidence even though the overwhelming number of monkeys he saw before leaving David's side made him question the odds of his survival.
"We'll camp here for two hours and if he's not here by then..." Ross did not finish his sentence but everyone knew the meaning of his words. Except for Marcella and Maria, the rest had gloomy expressions on their faces. Not because they were thinking David died but because he was the strongest of them all and this part of the forest was said to be the least dangerous. If they lost their strongest in this area, they couldn't even imagine what would happen in the center, the most dangerous place on the island.
"Whoo, those monkeys were annoying" they all freaked out when they heard a sudden voice. The direction the voice came was dark, they all stared at the darkness as slowly a figure merged from that darkness.
"David" Logan grinned, sighing inside.
"Did you kill them all?" It was Jonah who asked Michael the question. Michael just shook his head,
"Of course not, there were so many I had to back off. Thank gods they didn't follow me" the overwhelming number of monkeys as well as the way he spoke made them believe him. They didn't want to believe he could kill all those undead monkeys. After all, he was just a normal human being like the rest of them.
"Weird, normally undead won't stop until either they're dead or their prey is' ' Marcella threw a doubtful glance at Michael. It was obvious she didn't believe a single worth that came out of his mouth.
"If you have doubts, you better go and ask those monkeys"
Michael couldn't care less about what she's thinking. After getting Ross to guide him to the artifact, he would show them his true powers. At that time, Marcella might end up as another victim of Lucifer.
"Humph" Marcella snickered before turning her back. Logan walked towards Michael while the others began to set up a temporary camp on the ground. After the long battle with the monkeys, they wanted to get some shut-eye, even if it's only for two hours.
"I knew those monkeys can't stop you"
"Yeah you bet"
The two of them fist-bumped like best friends,
"It's your turn to watch big guy, I need some shut-eye if I'm gonna fight another undead"
"Logan is already on the job, my friend," he said, placing his hand on the chest in a funny manner. While Logan was watching over them, Michael lied down under a gigantic tree with heart-shaped leaves. The roots created a hollow place on the ground that Michael used as the bed. The sky still looked menacing with all the dark clouds above them. If he was back in his Sunrise sect home, he would have loved the thunderclaps because he loves sleeping during the heavy rain. The warmth of his bed, the sound of rain droplets hitting the roof, the smell of the ground, he loved those things.
However, at this moment, he wished it would not rain. The forest was bad as it is with all the leeches and undead, the last thing he wanted was heavy rain.
"Hello, human are you there?" Just as he was about to close his eyes, he heard Gaya's voice in his head.
"Yep," He whispered.
"I sent those pirates a rescue ship with our little Spyders"
"Good. I want them to spread rumors about me as far as they can. Where are you now?"
"We are at the far north of the island. I can come to you if you need my help" her voice sounded like she really wanted him to say yes. If she were to come to him, it would definitely complicate his plans. Therefore he couldn't say yes, however, he did have a task that she could help him with.
"There's another team hunting for the same artifact as we are. Try to locate them and kill them before they could get their hands on the artifact"
