Chapter 198 Next Monsters



Clyde felt that he had paid enough attention to Lola. She can already handle herself, especially with the help of Rosie who is always loyal to accompany her.

So now Clyde's attention was on Leon, Albert, and Wiley. He had already seen their Private Attributes and Stats earlier so he could know their abilities.

Leon has a Private Attribute called [Ironclad Warrior]. Albert's Private Attribute is called [Phantom Runner]. Whereas Wiley has a Private Attribute called [Toxic Enigma].

With their Private Attributes, Clyde immediately knew that the three of them were suitable to work together in a team.

Coupled with Lola who has a Private Attribute called [Glimpse Oracle] who can see flashes of the future, and Rosie who has a Private Attribute called [Stormbringer Lady] who can make her create lightning in her body.

Clyde thought that this party was quite strong. They just needed to raise Stats and he would allow them to raise Stats here.

The fact that there was something in Sivagadh Fortress preventing them from using Character Information was bad enough. He didn't know what would happen if the Senior Council realized that he already knew the secret.

Because of that now Clyde was thinking about hunting as many monsters as possible and leveling them up as quickly as possible. Because once he returned to the Fortress, Clyde had no idea what to expect.

It's a shame they don't have [Skill: Exp+] like him that can multiply the Exp they get. So they could only try hard to kill as many monsters as possible to level up.

Because of that Clyde chose not to help them. Then, he thought of something.

'Maybe if they fight that weird T-Rex, they'll get more experience. But are they strong enough for that?'

Clyde watched them with contemplating eyes. 'Maybe they should kill some small raptors first before killing the big monsters.'

So Clyde let them kill the remaining raptors until all ten of them died. They got enough experience but not enough to make them level up.

"Let's look for another monster," said Clyde.

"Yeah. After experiencing it myself, I don't think these monsters are that scary anymore," Wiley said with a big grin. He then laughed.

"You just hide and run," Rosie replied coldly with piercing side-eyes.

"That's how I fight. Not because I'm a coward." Wiley just shrugged his shoulder without the slightest bit of shame even though Rosie called him a coward.

Clyde thought that they were really close enough to be bickering even though they were in a situation like this.

Wiley too must have fought like that until his comrades felt that his fighting style of always hiding and attacking from relatively safe places was something normal.

"Let's go find some more monsters," Clyde said, snapping them out of the small talk.

"How many more do we have to kill?" Albert asked with a flat tone and eyes. Clyde couldn't properly decipher the meaning of his unreadable facial expression.

"As much as possible," Clyde answered without hesitation. "I thought you guys wanted to get strong fast. Remember, when you return to the Fortress, you can no longer use Character Information therefore you can't use the Stats and Skill Points you got."

The five of them watched Clyde's words as they thought things through. It didn't take them long to understand that they had limited time in this place so they had to make the most of it.

"Alright!" Leon said firmly. "Where else are we going?"

Clyde gave a crooked smile seeing the others showing the same reaction and determination as Leon.

"Let's just move on. We'll find monsters eventually if we keep moving," Clyde said.

So they continued their journey. Clyde was always in the back because once again he didn't want to interrupt. Because if he acted, he would only kill the monsters in the blink of an eye and they would have no chance.

A few minutes later they saw a group of winged dinosaurs perched on a hill floating in the air.

"Pterodactyls!" Wiley said. "They can fly. So maybe it will be a little more difficult."

"You're right," Leon said, then turned to Lola. "It's time for you to shine, Lola."

The others also immediately turned their eyes to her. Getting a look like that made Lola even more burdened and nervous. She swallowed reflexively.

"Haha! Don't worry. What I mean is that it's time for you to hone your shooting skills. But we will still protect you," Leon said as soon as he saw the look on Lola's face.

"I will try!" Lola looked determined.

Leon nodded. "Good. Then let's begin."

Leon, Albert, and Wiley moved to the front while Rosie stayed with Lola like before. Nobody suggested that Clyde should help Lola because he didn't look like he was doing anything.

The five of them realized that Clyde was only here to see how they were doing. They have to try on their own.

The five people also realized that Clyde's power was far above them. So he doesn't need to kill small monsters like this.

Lola aimed again. This time she could be a little calmer than before because she had made up her mind and heart.

The pterodactyls started to notice people approaching the direction where they were resting. Their wings opened wide and they shot into the air.

As they got closer, Leon and Albert noticed that there was something strange about the pterodactyls.

"Did you see that?" Albert asked.

"Yes. There is something pink stuck to their skin," Leon replied.

"What's that?"

"I don't know. We have to be more careful."

Albert nodded. "I'll tell the others."

After that, Albert retreated backward. While Leon continued to run.

The pterodactyls dived towards Leon who was at the forefront and looked the bravest in their eyes.

Meanwhile, Albert decided to yell to tell Wiley what he had seen.

"You see the pink crystals on their bodies?"

"What?" Wiley then looked up. After he squinted, he could finally see the pink spots on the pterodactyl's body. "What is that?"

"Tell Lola and Rosie. Tell them to be more careful!"

"OK!"

Wiley immediately returned to the back.
