Kain seethed with anger, his whole physique coated in mud and particles from the shattered wall. His try to guide Alex, the white-robed man, to his demise had backfired, leading to an unlucky final result.

“Pffu…”

Spitting out a little bit of mud that had entered his mouth, Kain muttered in frustration. “Shit…White-robed man.”

“Hah! Effectively, effectively, if it is not Kain,” Alex exclaimed upon recognizing Kain’s determine.

As Alex stepped into the huge corridor past the damaged wall, Kain was the primary particular person he seen.

Having efficiently rescued the kids, Alex felt a newfound sense of rest. Realizing that he may teleport into the interdimensional farm additional bolstered his confidence.

He understood that there was no cause to concern Kain. So long as he remained cautious, Kain posed no risk to him.

“Are you right here to welcome me?” Alex requested nonchalantly.

He started to scrutinise the inside of the large corridor into which he had damaged. Unaware of the existence of the key underground metropolis beneath Pushpam, Alex’s curiosity was piqued upon witnessing the close by construction.

Upon breaking by means of the wall, he discovered himself in an enormous corridor, spanning 100 meters in width and fifty meters in peak. He could not perceive how a construction like this may very well be made underground with none pillars.

The ambient mana inside the corridor was extremely dense. Even when standing nonetheless, Alex may really feel his physique naturally absorbing mana. This reverse of the situation outdoors the corridor.

Aside from Kain, Alex seen a peculiar construction within the centre of the corridor. Emitting a radiant glow, the small dome-like construction served as a focus for all of the mana collected by the traditional runes.

When seen with mana imaginative and prescient, the depth of sunshine emitted by the construction was blinding. The quantity of mana it contained exceeded Alex’s creativeness, whereas the density of the encompassing runes was equally astonishing.

“It could be the rationale for the heightened mana density on this corridor. It possible serves a number of capabilities,” Alex deduced.

Swiftly, he recognised it because the supply from which all the traditional runes unfold all through the tunnels originated.

“Kain could also be controlling the whole community of underground passages by means of it,” Alex speculated.

Nevertheless, Kain did not enable Alex any extra time to assume. 

Consumed by fury, Kain ready himself to obliterate Alex’s head into minuscule fragments.

Thrusting his employees into the bottom as soon as once more, a robust surge of mana rippled by means of the environment.

Recognising the acquainted sensation, Alex understood that Kain was summoning the mutants to do his bidding.

“I do not know the way you managed to flee earlier than or what methods you could have up your sleeve, however on this room, I’m a god. There’s nowhere so that you can run. I’ll uncover the secrets and techniques out of your lifeless physique and discover my experiment specimens.” Kain bellowed as ten tier-4 mutant monsters appeared behind him.

Every considered one of them dwarfed the half-mutated monsters that had been created utilizing kids. Their transformations had been full, devoid of eyes or noses.

The mutant monsters possessed no discernible facial options.

‘These mutants bear a hanging resemblance to those I encountered in Thira. They seem deranged, consumed by their bloodlust.’

‘However why aren’t they attacking Kain? Can he management them?’ For a quick second, Alex felt a pang of concern that Kain possessed management over these monsters.

Nevertheless, he swiftly realised that it wasn’t the case. One way or the other, the monsters had been unable to detect Kain’s presence.

To them, he was invisible. That was why he was secure from their insanity.

Thus, their predatory gaze was fixated on Alex.

“Your mad monsters will not even depart a scratch on me,” Alex declared defiantly to Kain.

“Let’s put that to the check.” 

“BOOM!” With lightning-fast pace, one of many mutants charged in the direction of Alex.

Dealing with ten mutant monsters was no small feat. The final time, Alex barely managed to beat them with the mixed effort of a dozen warriors.

This time, he could not replicate the identical situation. There was nobody current to assist him.

Nevertheless, that did not imply he was destined to lose.

Having grown in power, Alex was now not the identical as when he confronted the monsters earlier than. 

Beforehand, he had been a tier 3 warrior, however now he had ascended to tier 4. His bodily prowess had elevated, and he had acquired the flexibility to forged intricate spells. This mix of power and magic proved to be a lethal benefit in opposition to the mutants, particularly when there have been no close by organisms for them to eat.

The mutants relied on consuming different organisms to regenerate their decaying our bodies. The stronger the enemy they confronted, the extra mana they might exhaust, hastening the decay of their kinds.

In a battle of attrition, Alex had no cause to concern the mutants. 

So, when he noticed the enraged mutants coming in the direction of him, Alex did not really feel any concern. He was fairly relaxed that he needed to face absolutely fashioned tier 4 mutants. 

Assured in his talents, Alex confronted the oncoming mutants with out concern. He infused his physique with an ample quantity of mana, getting ready to interact in battle.

As the primary mutant lunged at him, Alex swiftly evaded the assault by shifting his physique barely.

The huge creature missed its mark, its momentum carrying it previous Alex.

Undeterred, the enraged mutant, peculiarly contorted its physique, deliberately sacrificing its again muscle groups and leg joints to launch a shock assault on Alex.

The unconventional strike would have caught most off guard, because it concerned inflicting self-harm earlier than concentrating on the enemy. Nevertheless, Alex’s expertise in coping with mutant creatures allowed him to react swiftly and successfully in opposition to the surprising assault.

Because the mutant lunged ahead with its injured legs, Alex rapidly crouched all the way down to evade the assault. The mutant’s lack of management over its fist labored to Alex’s benefit, permitting him to slide by means of its assault vary unscathed. Seizing the chance, Alex swiftly closed the space between himself and the mutant.

Drawing the axe offered by the interdimensional farm from his stock, Alex held it firmly in his hand. Although the axe appeared crude with its easy iron building, it was sharp sufficient for his present use. Alex was assured that he may injure the mutant with this axe that was able to slicing by means of rocks.

In a fluid movement, Alex swung the axe in the direction of the mutant’s compromised knee joint. 

The blade related with precision, hanging the higher layer and inflicting additional injury to the already injured leg. The impression shattered the mutant’s kneecap, rendering it unable to take care of management over its huge physique.

With one knee blown out, the mutant misplaced its steadiness and started to topple backwards, its monumental type crashing to the bottom.

Alex was glad along with his efficiency.

Nevertheless, as Alex noticed the 9 remaining mutants closing in on him, he could not afford to bask within the satisfaction of his earlier profitable assault. 

The chipped and half-destroyed blade of his axe served as a reminder that his weapon may not be robust sufficient to face up to the onslaught of the mutants. However it did not matter, he knew a strategy to repair that.

“That is going to get troublesome.” He stated whereas wanting on the mutant that was regenerating its kneecap.

Regardless that Alex stated that, in his thoughts, he had already fashioned a plan to counter the mutant monsters.

Even the collection of actions he had simply executed was not so simple as it appeared.

Every motion he had taken, from evading the preliminary assault and selecting the axe as his weapon to concentrating on the joints of the mutants, had been meticulously calculated to maximise his probabilities of success. All the pieces had its goal.

He knew from his earlier battle that the mutant had hassle controlling its pace and route. Alex used this to his benefit to dodge the mutant.

The axe was chosen because the weapon to deal larger injury to the mutant. It additionally had another significance. He may repair the axe immediately by sending it to the stock and consuming some FP. That was a bonus when he wanted a pointy weapon to face the mutants.

Alex’s determination to focus on the kneecap and joints of the mutant monsters was primarily based on their vulnerability and the issue they confronted in regenerating their our bodies. The pinnacle and higher physique of the mutants had been instinctively protected, making them difficult to penetrate, whereas their robust leg muscle groups made them formidable opponents.

Nevertheless, when the mutants had been in high-speed movement, their capability to reply to assaults directed at their legs decreased considerably. Alex recognised this weak point and seized the chance to use it. 

By attacking the legs, particularly the kneecaps and joints, he aimed to impair the mutants’ mobility and hinder their capability to interact in fight successfully.

Furthermore, the mutants possessed the flexibility to regenerate comfortable tissue quickly, though the regeneration pace would lower with out sustenance. 

Understanding this, Alex strategically destroyed the kneecaps, figuring out that it could improve the time required for the monsters to regenerate the damage and eat extra sources within the course of. 

This strategy would grant him a bonus within the battle of attrition, because the mutants must divert power in the direction of regeneration reasonably than preserve their aggressive onslaught.

By concentrating on the weakest factors and exploiting the mutants’ limitations in regeneration, Alex aimed to achieve an higher hand within the battle and improve his probabilities of rising victorious.

With willpower in his eyes, Alex ready himself for the upcoming battle, figuring out that he needed to depend on his strategic considering and resourcefulness to beat the chances stacked in opposition to him.

‘The mutants are stronger, sooner and way more unpredictable than regular tier 4 warriors. They can not use expertise which can be associated to spirit guardians or magical spells. They’re in a maddened state which prevents them from taking logical actions. Nevertheless, they’ve very excessive regenerative energy.’ 

“It looks like my preliminary assault was efficient. Now that the check is over, let’s apply it to one other mutant.” Alex stated whereas wanting on the mutant monsters.
