Chapter 178 – Blocked

 

Max immediately became suspicious when he saw the field behind them, having no signs of burns on its surface.

When Max first encountered Smiling Death, it was the searing heat of the flame that gave away his position.

Feeling the sudden change of temperature, Max was then able to react instantly, dodging back to create space between them.

Now from the looks of things, it seemed like it was only some sort of trick, possibly an illusion that could deceive his senses.

However, Max currently had no way of confirming it. If there was really an illusion applied to the weapon, Max could only take a risk to find out.

If the illusion is powerful enough to play with his senses, then there’s nothing he could do to block it.

But Max also knows that he wasn’t wrong this time. Adding up every clue he gathered, this illusion should only be limited to the space around the weapon.

This can be proven by the disappearance of the scorching surface beneath Smiling Death once he moved past and left the area.

When Max recalled the initial attack earlier, the possibility of the weapon having an illusion around it became more and more believable.

A moment ago, when Max was only curiously looking around the strange landscape, what revealed the unexpected ambush was the sudden arrival of intense heat.

It was a failure of an ambush. The usual silent and sneaky attack were replaced by what felt like a massive fireball being thrown at him.

Max would be a fool not to notice such an attack. Up to this, Max could say that attempting to catch someone off guard and using a striking, bold weapon like that doesn’t make a good combination.

This also solidified his idea that the illusion was on the weapon, not on the man.

Max knew this because if it were the man who has the illusion, or having an illusion related skill, then he would have held his skill back so as to not expose himself and waited to close the distance on him before using it.

Since Smiling Death did not do it like that, Max could only assume that Smiling Death had no control of the illusion, causing him to think that the illusion was on the weapon, not on the individual.

“Looks like I’ll have to test it.”

Max brightened up as soon as his mind formed a great plan.

…

Running through the lifeless forest, one could only see dying trees and barren drylands. Life doesn’t seem to be welcomed here with the absence of vitality in the surroundings.

Contrary to the towering mountain that Max arrived at, this place didn’t have the abundance of creatures, and the woods also lacked spirit, giving off a dark, bleak atmosphere.

But for Max, this forest has everything he needs. Reflecting on his eyes was a large trunk blocking his way, if Max didn’t move aside, he would be hit in the next second.

Smiling Death’s smile turned wider, thinking that this was his chance to catch up to Max. In front of him was a clump of trees, which would make it harder for his target to escape.

Luckily for Smiling Death, the direction Max was running towards was where he originally planned to go, so no time will be wasted in this unending chase.

Just as he got closer, Smiling Death was surprised to see Max collecting dead woods from the nearby trees he passes through.

But he quickly forgot about it since sticks would cause no harm to him. This futile action would not change anything. What can a mere branch do against him?

Max collected more and more woods, breaking them off from the fragile trees. He disregarded the small and overly large ones and only picked the decent-sized ones, carrying them with both his hands.

This was everything he needed to conduct the test. The rest would be up to his vision.

After counting down a few seconds, Max suddenly threw the woods towards Smiling Death, who was following closely behind him.

As the distance between them wasn’t too wide, the projectile he threw shot directly towards Smiling Death.

However, it didn’t manage to hit him. Brandishing his dagger, Smiling Death easily blocked and slashed the flying objects targeted at him.

Smiling Death was amused by the ineffective attempts. If he got held back by some tree branches, then even he would be ashamed of himself.

Unknown to him, Max couldn’t wipe off the smile on his face. He had finally confirmed it. Now at long last, it was time for him to fight back.

Not giving Smiling Death an idea, Max slightly slowed down, pretending to be exhausted to further narrow the distance between them.

Once the gap got smaller, Max, with great force, suddenly took an opposite turn, lunging towards Smiling Death, who was surprised by his actions.

Shouldn’t he be the one chasing? Why did his target, who had only been running away the whole time, suddenly turned on him?

Although Smiling Death was surprised, he was quick to react, blocking the dagger that appeared out of nowhere on his target’s hands.

A sharp metallic sound rang out as the two weapons collided, each having their own force empowering it.

Hearing this, Max now proved that all those terrifying flames were fake, which was only meant to trick his senses into believing it was all real.

His dagger was nothing special. It was only a disposable one that is designed to be used on casual battles and training.

Max had lots of it in his Inventory. It was cheap for a dagger, yet it managed to stay undamaged even after connecting to the fiery, destructive blade the man had.

Naturally, it wasn’t that his dagger was special in any way. It was only proof that the weapon on the man’s hands was nothing but an ordinary blade disguised as something formidable.

Max only dared to try this because he was already confident that it was only an illusion.

When Max threw back a good amount of tree branches, the man would only evade it, but occasionally, he would use his dagger to block it.

Every time he did that, Max would always keep a close eye at the parts where the branches connect with the weapon.

Since Max only got decent sized branches, he would clearly see if it was burnt by the weapon or not, and with the fearsome power behind the flames, it would surely not be limited to small burns.

Just like what he had expected, the tree branches never once ignited in flames.

This made his confidence grow, and ultimately, it led to the decision of Max using his weapon to initiate the first contact.

Knowing that the weapon was only an ordinary one, Max had no more reason to be alarmed.

It was time to put an end to all of this.

Without stopping, Max rained down a barrage of attacks with Smiling Death, only barely keeping up with him. Still, his smile never disappeared as if nothing could ever bother him.

Finally, when Max saw an opportunity, his dagger nimbly went past the arm of Smiling Death straight towards his chest.

*ting*

The dagger mysteriously bounced off. Surprised, Max only paused for a second before swiftly sliding to his side, swinging his blade towards his unprotected throat.

*ting*

Smiling Death only smiled at Max as if he had already expected it. Max, on the other hand, became more serious while also being slightly confused.

This couldn’t possibly be another trick, right?

Chapter 177 – Was It a Trick?

 

With lips curled up while brandishing his dagger, Smiling Death continued to chase after Max, who was only doing his best to get out of the reach of his attacks.

Max looked to be losing, but he was only holding himself back from using his skills. The reason for that was he had some concerns on his mind.

Max was currently on his Shadow Thief disguise with a set of black clothing and a mask on his face. He had been wearing this even before they had made their way to this location.

Yu’er and Xue also have their own black clothing and masks to prevent anyone from identifying them. Another reason was to create a new identity. This identity will be for when they would have to accomplish some risky activities against others.

With all this, even the tiniest clues had to be hidden away. They couldn’t let anyone associate this identity with their real ones.

There can be no mistake here, as this would be crucial in their future plans.

On the other hand, their real selves would be the ones who would act like normal Awakeneds doing normal things.

If one day, they were to find themselves bullied in multiple fronts, they could use this second identity to destroy all their enemies, and all that attempts to hinder their progress.

Max knew that even if he does not intentionally make any enemies, there will still be one day that formidable enemies would arrive.

If he couldn’t control how and when it would happen, then he could at the very least make some preparations for it.

However, it wasn’t only so that he could keep himself and the people around him safe. That was one thing, but the other was his understanding of what can keep him ahead of others, which can give him the most advantage.

Working in the dark would make everything a lot easier than using his real identity on various stuff he had to pull off.

On the outside, Max could be a powerhouse that other Awakeneds would have to be careful of, and in the dark, he could be an unstoppable figure that would come and go unhindered by anyone.

The Shapeshifting Skill that Max had also played a role in his disguise, changing his body shape, further preventing others from connecting it back to him.

Having all this in mind, Max’s concerns was using his skills, such as the Purple Lightning and the Target Charm.

These skills could be associated with Layla and Lydia and in the worst case, would only bring them a load of unwanted trouble.

Not only that, they were only here because they saw the live broadcast of the bats taking over a secluded mountain village.

This meant that somewhere in this area, there was someone or something catching everything that was happening and showing it out for everyone around the world to see.

Until now, Max hasn’t found where that location was. Yu’er and Xue also still seemed to be searching for it as if they have located it, they would surely notify him.

Having no clue where it was, the live broadcast could be anywhere around him. Being seen by countless Awakeneds using those skills, never a good idea.

Though the Target Charm was hardly noticeable with only a light pinkish glow surrounding the target, the Purple Lightning would definitely capture everyone’s attention.

Layla and Lydia might also chance upon the broadcast, and since it was originally their own skills, they would surely be able to discern it with one look.

This, in turn, made it not good for Max to show his skills out, which made this fight a slight disadvantage for him. However, it doesn’t mean that he had no way of countering back.

His only problem was the fiery flame that burned around the weapon. His senses were telling him that he had to stay away from it.

Smiling Death kept swinging the dagger, not giving him any second to breathe. There were only a few things he could do to beat this madman.

Sweat poured down his forehead as he sprinted away with a dagger-wielding man behind him.

Max wanted to prolong the battle to give himself some more time. In any case, when it comes to running, he was confident about lasting a long period.

While on the move, his thoughts quickly tried to come up with a plan against the constant assault targeted against him.

Max was headed towards where he came from, outside the eerie forest. He was aware that he might only be lost when he hastily went deeper inside it. At that time, even if Max were to shake off his pursuer, he might only find himself in a more serious situation.

Who knows where he would be then. Max didn’t want to spend the night in this place. Given a choice, he would rather face this guy in a direct battle than to be lost in this lifeless land.

Occasionally, Max had to turn his body to avoid the deadly slashes coming from the man. No matter how hard he tried to think, he couldn’t think of a solution.

This put him in a difficult spot where he might have to decide to use some items to counterattack. Max had no other choice since he had no way to defend the hits directed at him.

Smiling Death couldn’t be more annoyed. He felt like his target was the one playing with him. Every time he got close, his target would suddenly accelerate, leaving him to chase once more.

Also, his dagger always missed. His target was like a fish in the water, jumping out of his reach the second he thrust his weapon out.

Even while he was annoyed, his face still kept its smiling expression as if he wasn’t fazed by the numerous failures of his attempts, although his eyes say a different story.

Max kept looking back to react at the closing dagger instantly. He had been dodging away for quite a while now and was getting used to the man’s movement and attack pattern.

No matter how much he thought about it, for someone who has such a fearsome weapon, his pursuer didn’t look to be an expert capable of making full use of the weapon.

If the man didn’t have that kind of weapon and had instead used an ordinary dagger, Max would have thought that he was only using it for the first time. His hold on the weapon looked somewhat strange. Max genuinely doubted whether the weapon was his property.

As he glanced back once more, his eyes suddenly landed on the ground behind the man. Max noticed a small detail he had missed.

Why was the ground trailing behind them undamaged? A moment ago, the terrifying flame’s heat was enough to scorch the earth. Why wasn’t it in effect now? Did the flame perhaps lose some of its power?

No! That wasn’t it! The ground beneath the man clearly still had scorch marks on it. From his position, it seemed like it was burning from the heat generated by the flame.

After turning his head a few times more, Max discovered that the flame only affected the surrounding area around the man. Outside of that range, no damages could be seen.

Was it a trick all along?

The Lust System: Chapter 176 (Unlocked)

Chapter 176 – Smiling Death

 

The dark and desolate surroundings filled with scattered trees and damaged lands were displayed in a certain area at the mountain.

With the combination of towering trees and dangerous uneven terrains, the land looked like it had a supernatural background, giving people a sense of danger permeating in the air.

Most of the trees had dark, crooked trunks and dried leaves, adding the fact that the thick cluster of trees blocked the light from coming in, was enough to make people afraid of staying in this mysterious location.

However, at this moment, the surroundings were filled with sounds of forceful impacts and trees falling; this alone would make people wonder whether their ears weren’t tricking them.

It was common knowledge among everyone that no one would want to go to this part of the mountain since one could lose their sense of direction if they were deep enough inside.

Another thing was its low visibility. Even when the sun was high up in the morning, the mysterious forest doesn’t brighten up.

The dark side of the mountain never faces the sun, and it was hard to see how far it spanned. No end could be seen in sight even when one was to reach the outer region of it.

In this vast land, mountains after mountains stuck next to each other. People would find it hard to tell where they are if they were to lose track of their position.

Everyone knew how dangerous it was, and no one was brave enough to go through it and risk their safety. Even those who seek thrills and adventure would have to hold themselves back.

The countless number of people lost inside also brought its already fearsome reputation further up to a new level of danger.

For that reason, people being in here was unthinkable. The resources available in this area were also scarce, leaving anyone no reason to be here.

But this time, two figures seemed to have decided to become the desolate forest’s new victims.

Max had beeing trying to use everything to finish this difficult battle. He clearly didn’t understand how it happened as it occurred so fast he wasn’t able to react to it.

Before him, was a middle-aged man with a dagger cloaked in dark red flame, the man’s face was full of ferocity as if he wanted to devour Max whole.

Max couldn’t help but wonder whether he had recently offended someone, which led to him receiving this kind of welcome once he reached the mountain.

It could also be that he might have been entangled with someone else’s plans in this area.

Seeking adventures while satiating his curiosity, Max only decided to go to this location so that he could spectate the ongoing battle and at the same time, take a closer look at the bats.

The mountains were breathtaking. The old trees stood so high that they made Max think that he was back to the olden times where ferocious animals still roamed the land.

As he traveled around, Max could feel the dangerous atmosphere surrounding him.

The seemingly calm yet impressive mountainous regions made him feel like he was in a wild zone filled with uncertainties and unexpected dangers.

Max had to be in constant alert of his surroundings, knowing that this area wasn’t a place he was familiar with.

Hidden dangers lurk everywhere, and one mistake could lead him to death. Though coming here, all these things were only passing thoughts drifting away in his mind.

Max expected nothing wrong happening since there was no reason for an incident to occur right after his arrival.

However, it seems like the world was toying with him, putting him in his current troublesome situation.

The man in front of him was like a crazed bull non-stop going after him. Initially, Max had only gone near this area because he saw the weird-looking forest that gives off an eerie atmosphere.

Max was alone as he went inside it. Yu’er and Xue went on the other side of the mountain to search for any traces of the bats.

Xue’s transformation ability was useful for scouting. Coming to this humongous mountain, they decided to split, going to two opposite directions to save time.

With their own communication device on their hands, they can still keep in contact with each other once they found something.

When going through the endless forest, Max didn’t think he would see a lifeless forest on the same mountain as the lively jungle full of colors.

Unable to keep his curiosity to himself, Max entered by himself to take a look at what this strange place was.

What he didn’t expect was someone would attack him out of nowhere. Ambushing someone wasn’t to be taken likely as no one would play that kind of trick and expect the other to let them go the next moment.

That could only mean that the person behind it had hostile intentions against him.

Considering the fact that it only happened when he entered this unnatural forest, Max thought whether he had entered someone else’s territory to which he had no clue about.

But now he had no time to think about it. Using his flexible body, Max pushed his legs against the ground, pushing himself out of the range of the fiery blade.

Even without knowing what it was, Max could already guess that the flame cloaking the blade was not something he could manage to receive.

Max was still a distance away, and he could already feel the heat burning through the wind. The ground around the man had also been scorched black.

One could only imagine what would happen to Max if he were to touch the blade of the dagger.

The eyes of the man became fiercer, which looked to be glowing, seeing Max surprisingly evade all his attacks. He initially planned to end this fast as he still had many things to do.

Though the man had a ferocious expression, a playful smile never left his face. It was a stark contrast to his brutish actions; Max could only sweep away the repulsive feeling rushing through his body.

Does this guy think he was a sheep grasping onto the tiny hope of surviving against his assault?

The man had only accidentally encountered Max when he was on his way to prey on some good targets.

Max had no idea of this, but there had been cases of people missing in the nearby cities, including his home city.

The Special Affairs Department had also been looking closely into this. All of them didn’t know that the person responsible for it was none other than the man Max was presently against.

Smiling Death was what he was called all over the Awakened world. This came from how he was always smiling while he happily killed his chosen victims.

The worst thing was Smiling Death never kills anyone with a reason. He only kills for the entertainment it brings him.

Smiling Death enjoys seeing his victims’ despairing expressions. Everything he does was solely for the sake of his enjoyment.

The Lust System: Chapter 175 (Unlocked)

Chapter 175 – Sudden Retreat

 

Agitated bats filled their vision.

Wherever they turned, there were countless bats frenziedly attacking them.

Their visions were blocked, and they could only hear their fellow Awakeneds being in the middle of their own battles.

A large number of bats were currently surrounding three Awakeneds. These were the ones Chief Li had long been waiting for.

The three of them knew that they should have long escaped the area since there was no way left for them to achieve their goal.

Their previous plan was to distance themselves away from the blood-sucking bats and begin from there.

Once they see that the barrier was stable enough to hold them all off inside, they would then move closer and slowly finish all the bats off.

Those creatures’ only advantage against them was their high numbers and their ability to slide out of their grasp once they decide to escape.

However, when the bats were limited to only flying within the barrier, those bats can only wait for their deaths as they slowly decrease their numbers.

Overall, it was a simple yet tremendously exhausting and time-consuming mission. Other than that, the task would be a breeze.

Among the Awakeneds that escaped, White Eye can only be considered to be an average Awakened. There were much stronger and troublesome ones that got away.

In their eyes, White Eye could barely be a threat for a Rank 1. Though White Eye had immense potential with his skill, there wasn’t a guarantee that White Eye could fully reach the peak of his power.

Some day, the blood-sucking bats would surely become strong enough to be able to attack Awakeneds with ease.

When they imagined how powerful his bats would become once he advanced his rank, they could only hope that they weren’t the ones being targeted by those fearsome monsters.

However, none of them expected that with White Eye’s current ability, his bats could already break out of a barrier.

They seemed to have underestimated White Eye’s capabilities. He was more powerful than they have thought.

Now they found themselves in a predicament, under attack by a furious group of bloodsuckers.

Although from an outside perspective, the three looked like they were at a disadvantage, the reality couldn’t be farther from that.

Each of them could feel the bats hitting their bodies everywhere. The bat’s hidden fangs were also trying to pierce through their skin.

Unfortunately, they were still too weak. Their fangs weren’t sharp enough to deal any damage to them.

The only thing they could feel was tiny creatures hitting their bodies as if hoping that they would suffocate from their numbers.

This was truly the most one-sided battle that they had been through. They couldn’t do much to retaliate in their current state.

The Barrier Master, whose skill was only to form a barrier, could only rely on her stronger body to hit back, slowly reducing the numbers of bats that were attacking her.

No one could understand why are the bats attacking them in the first place. White Eye should be aware that he could do nothing against them.

White Eye was only digging his own grave so pointlessly.

The other two were also doing well on their own.

The first one had a skill that releases sleeping smoke, which made the bats in the surroundings sink into a heavy state of sleepiness before they fell one by one.

This was the most effective skill against the bats among the three skills available to them. Most of the bats moved away from the area, not wanting to be affected by the smoke.

After a certain distance away, the sleeping smoke no longer affected them. The smoke was only effective around the area near the skill user. Outside of that, the wind would only blow it away.

Since it was impossible for the bats to be aware of how to deal with the smoke, their fast response could only mean that White Eye was still in control of them.

This was what they had been trying to find out even before White Eye had escaped from them.

The bats weren’t capable of speaking, and they had been acting so foolishly, which made them confused whether it was still the same White Eye or he was influenced by the little creatures.

Now that they had proven that these bats have intelligence and proper coordination with each other, they would be able to report back some interesting findings.

However, with that many bats, White Eye would surely have a hard time individually controlling them.

From this, they could assume that White Eye might only be able to control a number of them, but he might still be able to swap to controlling different bats whenever he chose to.

The last one among them, who was a sword user, easily sliced away the bats. Every time the sword moved, a few bats fell, building up a small mountain of corpses below.

But even though they had been slaying as many as they could for what seemed to be a long time now, they still couldn’t see any significant changes around them.

If this were to continue, they would surely be exhausted, and when they do, they could only imagine what fate would befall them.

The blood-sucking bats were similar to ants. As long as they don’t let them stick to their bodies for a long time, nothing would happen.

However, when they become too drained to move, it would be a disaster. Even ants would be able to take down an animal many times bigger than them by overwhelming it with their numbers and slowly consuming them alive.

After a few swift movements, breathing heavily, the three of them managed to move closer to each other. Now with them being together, they pushed off the pesky creatures that were vigorously attacking them non stop.

…

After an extended period, they were becoming increasingly tired, their movements slowing, and their strengths weakening.

Being alert the whole time and using all their strengths to prevent the bats from sticking to them had caused their energy to be gradually depleted.

The bats seemed to have been waiting for this moment. Their attacks became more and more frantic as if they were getting excited about their prey nearing its end.

They were in serious trouble.

The three of them communicated using their movements, deciding if they should make a run for it.

One thing on their mind was whether these bats would chase after them and how long could they last before they collapse since their bodies were already screaming at them.

Just before they became desperate, the blood-sucking bats simultaneously screamed out, which made their minds blank out from the intense pain being transmitted in it.

All three of them went down with eyes tightly shut, covering their ears from the extremely unbearable piercing noise coming out of the bats.

They didn’t know what the bats were up to now. The only thing on their minds was how to put an end to it.

Suddenly, the noise stopped.

There was a gloomy silence as they feared the noise ringing out for another time.

A few seconds had passed, and there was nothing.

When they slowly opened their eyes, the bats were already rapidly flying away, back to the forest, seemingly in a hurry.

…

While there was chaos happening in the mountains, on the other side where light barely touches the land, Max was also kept busy with his own battle.
