Chapter 321 - Stage 5

Stage 5!

"Haah…ahh…shit…that was horrifying!" Compass Carburettor was drenched in sweat, wriggling on the ground from the after-effects.

He hurriedly assumed his Haggon form, using its endurance to go through the pain, slowly getting over it as he talked with Grisha, 'How much longer until they arrive?'

'Three minutes thirty-two seconds.' Came her reply.

"That's enough time to plan things." Sighing in response, Compass Carburettor gazed at the sphere that had formed in the air. It was the Beast Form System. Currently, it was incapable of escaping his Reality Marble, and due to the nature of its existence, it was unable to hold on and was slowly beginning to dissipate.

He extended his Anthozoa, rapidly sucking it inside in a matter of seconds. But, he controlled himself, aware that this wasn't the time to deal with it. His enemies were bound to arrive now, so he had to prepare for an escape.

As for the Beast Form System, if necessary, he planned to use it as his trump card. In its current state, it wasn't a System Fragment yet but was in actuality the Beast Form System in its whole.

And, what would happen if he shot this into another System Host?

The Beast Form System was at Level 9. So of course, for Systems at Level 9 and below, their deaths were guaranteed. Both the Systems would clash until their minds shattered while their Core Skills might just detonate and dissipate.

For a Level 10 System, it would be severely injured to the extent its mind too would be destroyed. So, this was his trump card now.

One bullet…to take down a System.

And, he planned to take down the strongest one with that while using the chance to flee.

"But before that." He sensed within his Dimensional Space, noticing a fifth hill begin to grow, informing through telepathy, 'Dita, that's your cue.'

'Alright!' Came Dita's reply as she swallowed the Dragon of System, plundering it whole to their side before fusing the resultant orb into the fifth hill.

Gong!

"Gah!" Compass Carburettor shouted as his body turned hot immediately while his skin began to crack. It was the same feeling he had experienced in the Darble World when he tried to utter the word 'System'.

A beam of light jutted out from the fifth hill as the orb slowly dissolved into it while the Dragon of System's body lost its body heat immediately, collapsing to the ground, dead.

Its body didn't dissipate but remained in place as its figure slowly morphed above the fifth hill. Upon completion of its appearance, the Dragon of System's eyes shot open as it unleashed a loud roar, causing everyone living on Carburettor Island to shudder in fear and collapse to the ground.

But a couple of seconds later, the roar stopped as its eyes slowly gained intelligence. The presence of Secret Society turned dense as a vast stream of Mental Energy poured into the fifth hill, slowly causing the Dragon of System to recall everything.

And in response to the volume of information related to its abilities that gushed into his mind, Compass Carburettor grunted as he hurriedly digested everything.

"So…this is your true ability…" His eyes widened in shock as he slowly extended his hand, causing Mental Energy to gush out of his body and condense into a portal before him, outlining the figure of Grisha.

At present, he was only able to open it to her.

Turning around, Compass Carburettor gazed at the state of the Reality Marble, frowning, 'I don't want this to remain here like this.'

"Besides, I should give them a greeting, right?" He smiled as most of the place within the Reality Marble was still full of the Static Force. He slowly altered the space, causing the location resembling the System World to vanish as it turned into a normal forest.

Appearance-wise, there wasn't any difference. But in terms of essence, it was wholly different. Moreover, Compass Carburettor slowly increased the kinetic energy within the place, causing the Static Force to absorb them all.

Soon, upon feeling that they had attained the limit to how much they could absorb the Static Force by noticing a minor breeze, he left behind a statue of him using Apocalypse Pearl, covering it with the Mental Energy Body Layer.

It was in a seated posture, and thanks to the Mental Energy Body Layer, it wasn't easy to determine whether it was him or not.

Thanks to Permanence, it remained as such.

'Thankfully, I needn't waste the Beast Form System.' Thinking as such, he passed through the portal, arriving beside Grisha, shocking her.

"Gimme some time." Saying so, he sat cross-legged, entering his mind space to begin battling against the Beast Form System. He was already struggling to endure all along and put off not entering it.

…

"We're here!" Straxia said as she gazed at the figure of the energy blade aircraft flying towards her. "Take it down!"

Five System Hosts used an array of abilities, destroying it in a matter of seconds. One of them used a detection-based ability, highlighting the outline of the Reality Marble's surface.

'I see, so this is a trap.' Ianon already understood based on what Grisha had informed his System. He had more than two minutes to prepare along the way, so he intentionally slowed down a bit to appear flying at the rear end.

Though, he didn't fly at the very end, for that would raise suspicions. And once they arrived, he actually flew forward, spreading out as he took a specific spot. This location was informed to him through Grisha, a safe spot where the Static Force wouldn't target him when unleashed.

And as it was pretty close to a couple of System Hosts, his actions seemed pretty natural.

"So, the Slayer…" A flaxen-haired youth grinned, "He's inside this, right?"

"Yes." Straxia nodded, continuing to gaze at the place.

"Then why are we waiting?" The flaxen-haired youth grinned as he took out a badge, "This can destroy that space's borders instantly."

Even without any confirmation, he activated the badge, causing it to vanish as a mysterious energy poured on the outlines of the Reality Marble, causing it to crack as the forest within was highlighted.

And upon seeing the figure of Compass Carburettor inside, shrouded by the cloak of the night, calmly staring at them, a small group of System Hosts grinned and rushed straight at him, entering the shattering Reality Marble.

Straxia didn't show any expression, calmly watching them enter, only focusing on them.

And then…Static Force took action.
