CHAPTER 40: CHAPTER 40: THE ANOMALY 5

’How do I get even? How?how?’ Vice stood there staring at the ground trying to think of anything that could help him

’They are already S-Rank why do I need to go through the Association when it’s already difficult to kill them at S-Rank’ he dragged his feet to the dungeon cores then sat down near them

’Even if the association was out of the way I don’t have the strength to kill them’ he kept staring at the ground trapped in thought looking for anything that could help him even a stupid was better than nothing to him now

He looked at the stack of paper he threw to the tree "do they have families?" he muttered to himself

He stood up and walked to the papers read it again, a smile formed as he looked at the information that could help him

’If I go after their families those fuckers will come to me they’ll be angry and desperate to save the people they love that they’ll make mistakes’ he smirked ’how do I deal with the Association? The plan was to leave this rat infested place but now I’m going need them’

’Now the only problem I have is how do I get to the Apex continent?’ Vice stood up he put the cores in pouch then put it his back into his shadow

"No it doesn’t matter if they are in another continent I’ll get them I don’t care how I’ll get those fuckers" his veins engorged

"But how do I beat S-Rank hunters when I was never even an A-Rank?’ He clenched his jaw

"Im confident that by the time we meet I’ll have a better plan than this but for now it will do" his smiled as he thought about how his former crew would react if he had their families lives how he’d force them to kill each other to see how shallow their loyalty is to even each other every thought made his smile widen

’For now I should rank up the dungeon’ he walked to where he found the dungeon core

...

.

He stood in front of the small tree

"Tsk"

’Its annoying that the core must be connected to the dungeon to rank up’ he took out the three dungeon cores then place one of them on top of the small tree

’Is it one core at a time or can it take two?’ He looked at the core on the tree then the two cores on the ground ’I’ll just do two and see how it works out’

He took the two core and put them against the small tree

[Dungeon cores detected....]

[Fusion process (Y/N)]

’seems like it doesn’t matter how many cores I give it ’ he pressed yes

[Fusion process 5 hours until completion..]

’5 hour is a short amount of time, I can train while I wait’ Vice took out has his dagger looked to a tree but as he was about to use shadow hop he got notifications

[Gordon Evolution Complete]

[Scarlet Evolution Complete]

[Freya Evolution Complete]

He smiled as he looked the notifications ’good now that rebel Luca and his friend will die’

Looked to the tree but all of sudden his body felt heavy he couldn’t keep his eyelids open

"Sniff..sniff"

’Its sleeping gas’ he dropped to the floor and went to sleep

The tree’s were releasing chemicals that put everything in the forest to sleep as the dungeon changed

...

...

.

"Yawn"

"What happened?" Vice was a little drowsy he looked around and the place had changed he was standing at the base of a hill that had multiple holes, it was surrounded by trees which made him a little comfortable he looked up the ceiling was gone.

He walked to the pond, it was no longer small as he looked at it reminded him of his days as bait ’I think that is enough exploring for to day’ he walked back to the hill leaving the lake

He entered every cave as he climbed the hill until he reached the last cave that was at the top, when he entered he saw the dungeon core at the center being held by vines

***********

While Vice was training his ignorance had quickened his death and yet at the same time ruined the humans plan

As chris stepped out of the mine he walked to professor Tyson "did everything go well?"

"Yes but when will we close the mine" Chris looked up at the Professor

"The mine will be closed by the end of the week" as the professor spoke his eyes widen

"Hiss...hisss"

"Screech"

.....

..

The nagas slithed out of the mine the bats went to sky

"CLOSE THE MINE NOW!" The professor rushed past Chris to block the mine [Stone wall] a wall closed the mine blocking the rest of nagas and bats

The professor turned to the other teachers that were protecting Chris "Chris go to my car I’ll be their once I’m done here" Chris nooded and ran off

"Sigh"

"This is going to be a long day" he looked the nagas and bats outside the mine and a battle stance but then

"DOOM"

The stone wall the professor made broke

"One of you contact the academy" the professor spoke as he ran to the hoard of monsters coming out of the dungeon

While the battle raged on outside, in the mine some nagas and bats didn’t go for the exit

They were now rushing to the last remaining dungeon in the mine with their mouth drooling
