Chapter 28: Chapter 28 : No, just, no!!!
Not hearing the system prompt after a while, they all sighed, knowing that the whole matter wasn't finished yet. A spear spontaneously appeared in Lion's hand while a longsword appeared in Andrea's.
This, of course, startled Luke but his fanboy soul quickly put the ends together " Do you have storage devices? " Fortunately, he still had control and didn't ask if storage rings existed. That would not only make him look like an idiot, but also like a country bumpkin idiot. Wait, he already has that image...
Lion just nodded " Yeah, a high rank one at that. It cost me a lot to have this bracelet. " Andrea also nodded but said with a tad bit of jealousy " I only have a mid-rank bracelet. "
Suppressing his disappointment that they didn't have storage rings but bracelets instead, Luke also took out his daggers while saying " I also have one, but I don't know it's grade and it's a necklace. "
Looking at Luke with the same gaze he would have to look at a worm, Lion simply asked
" A necklace? Such an outdated thing? " Sighing over a newbie's trouble, Lion continued " What is the dimension? 10 cubic meters? 100? "
" 10." " Then it's a low grade one. If it was 100 cubic meters, it would have been a mid-rank. You are quite lucky, newly integrated species supposedly don't have that chance. And if it was a higher grade, you would be in some people's target list. You certainly don't want that. "
Nodding in understanding, Luke looked back towards their masterpiece, curious about what could have survived it.
He didn't have to wait long though as a tentacle monster burst off the ground. It was half charred and still corroding.
" ROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAR " It released a gut-wrenching roar that was a mix of pain and anger.
It raised four of its tentacles, preparing a big move but Lion just got in front of it and raised his spear, pointing at it. The monster was thus blasted away. After a few seconds of staying on the ground, it got back up on its tentacles, effectively shattering Lion's newly formed badass aura.
It released what seemed to be ink from its mouth, that Lion repelled. The ink, once touching the ground, corroded it, proving that the monster had the poison attribute. Meanwhile, Andrea shot another blast towards it, this time, twice as big as the one she fired on the base.
The monster, which was just a bunch of tentacles and a mouth, separated itself. Now, there stood 46 tentacles against them. They all had a kind of opening, from which its ink was released in straight lines. They were like laser beams as they neared the two.
Lion, observing them, had the feeling that he couldn't repel them, even more so as this monster should also be a kind counter to them so he evaded by burrowing the ground, thanks to his ability. Andrea, who was a little behind just evaded them one by one with pure speed. Her two attributes were just perfect for that. After firing, the tentacles got back together, with one being the 'official' mouth.
As they were having a staring contest, Luke who was using his haunting march sneaked up to the side of the monster, 40 meters away from it and fired his dark blast, a 40 stacks dark blast. It simply erased the monster, that was caught off guard.
Sighing over the ease of the kill, Luke deactivated his spell and appeared. Lion and Andrea who were trying to win the contest were at first stunned then comprehensive. Luke indeed stated that he could move stealthily.
Looking at them, he complained about it " Well, wasn't it too easy? I'm sure there is something more. And..."
* Congratulations on your victory! You have been awarded 5000 PTS. No hostages survived so there are no additional PTS. You will be sent back to your living quarters in 20 minutes. *
" ... "
" ... "
" ... "
" My system is pretty disrespectful, it interrupts me every time. " Luke said with a helpless face.
Looking at him as if he wanted to slap him, Lion replied " I'm sure you deserve it. "
" Why?"
" You are too haughty. You dared to say it was easy. You will suffer in your next mission, the overseer will make it so."
Nodding at the side, Andrea, who was looking at what was once the base said " Yeah, furthermore there were initially three of these sh*ts that were waiting for us. " Looking at the distraught Luke dead in the eyes, she added
" You will get your sorry ass handed over to yourself. "
Shaking her head to get rid of these thoughts, Andrea changed the subject " Anyway, we should first get each others' contact number. "
Nodding, Lion agreed and gave his contact number to Andrea and turned to Luke for his.
Not knowing what they were talking about, he asked " What are the contact numbers, and with which device can we use them? "
Exasperated with this ignorant newbie, Lion replied with a deadpan tone " It's the chat option, you will see your number there. "
" Ohh thanks. Exploring this option for the first time, Luke saw his number, which was unnecessarily long and looked at Lion, troubled. It had more than a thousand numbers. With the same deadpan tone, Lion said " You can give it to me just by willing it while looking at me. "
Quickly doing what he was instructed with the both of them, Luke saw that he now had two contacts with their titles. They were Indomitable spear for Lion and Blitz sword woman for Andrea. Having his eyes widen in terror, he slowly, very slowly looked up to Andrea and Lion, who looked at him like he was the manifestation of filth...
