Chapter 76: Deadly weapon

[ They are bringing some extra people mostly as cannon fodder and for carrying stuff but also to check if any of them could receive any useful abilities. ]' Oh, so I have to enroll as a porter and go inside with them, and after they have killed a creature from the other race, many of us will awaken and some might receive abilities.

That sounds... quite dangerous and exciting, it's good that I brought a deadly weapon along. ' Lucian thought and touched his pocket where he was carrying the knife he took from the two brothers yesterday.

[ Yeah right, that knife can't even cut a human properly and what do you plan on doing with that? Tickle the creatures from another race? Well good luck. ]

' It's not like I can buy a sword or something and since we are in a hurry so this was my best shot. ' he replied then he thought:

' What are the power levels called? And how do someone get to the next power level? Also based on what does someone receive an ability? Is it completely luck based, someone gets such strong ability and some don't even recieve one. '

[ Sigh There is so much to explain, once we enter the Chasm you would be able to get many of your answers but I can answer these questions for you.

The levels of power are called Phases of evolution, and you will evolve after killing opponents and absorbing enough Fog, and the amount is different for different people.

As for the abilities, you have no control over it, and it is the abilities that chooses its owner based on the compatibility and other things. ] Sёarch* The NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

' Haa all this is so confusing, guess it will be better if I experience it myself. ' he thought.

The train took over an hour and Lucian finally got off at his station, then he took another cab as it drove off towards his final destination.

" You live in that area? That place is quite desolate, and I heard it is filled with gangsters, are you sure you got the right location? " The driver questioned, and Lucian just nodded as he continued to ask different questions to Zero.

' What's the highest Phase of Chasm on this earth? And what about the strongest people? '

[ The highest is the 4th Phase Chasm and no one has been able to clear it so far, so the strongest men are only at the 3rd Phase of evolution on this Earth, that's what they got for trying to monopolize everything. ]

' Haa There is such a large difference between the two planets, the women have already cleared the 8th Phase Chasm and the men here are struggling with just the 3rd Phase? Pathetic. ' Lucian thought, shaking his head.

' And what if we have already cleared all the 1st Phase Chasms and now there is none of it left.

Will the Chasm for 1st Phase still open even though our planet is already of the 2nd Phase or higher and if it don't then how are new people going to awaken. ' another question appeared in his head.

[ Where are you even getting all these questions from, it's like you had prepared a questionnaire in advance.

Yes there is still a chance of new 1st Phase Chasm appearing but only until your planet is in 2nd Phase.

Though you won't be able to attack the other side for some time and would only have to defend. And if there is no longer any 1st Phase Chasms then there is a more complex method for people to awaken. ]

He continued to ask questions for the rest of their journey, and over half an hour later he finally arrived at his final destination.

Just as the taxi driver had told him earlier, this place was quite desolate all he saw around were empty and old houses, which was probably like this since there was a Chasm in the area so the people who have control over the Chasm must have forced everyone to move.

' There is an entire factory in the distance, they even turned it into this condition. ' Lucian thought as he looked in the distance at the large factory that looked like a haunted place.

Few people were walking towards the factory, they looked like ordinary people so walking upto one of them Lucan asked:

" What are you here for? "

The other boy seemed to be in his late twenties, with height smaller than Lucian's and his body was a little fat, he had a strange mohawk hairstyle on his head.

" Huuuh? Of course I am here to for the job, aren't you here for the same reason? Tch, why are you looking at my hair like that? Are you jealous? " The other boy spoke.

" Oh I am here for the job too, I am Lucian. " He replied.

" I am Jackie, I am sure you must have heard about me. Actually I am a very famous vlogger with more than hundred subscribers, pretty famous right? Hehe, I only came here to shoot actually. "

Jackie whispered while looking around then he pointed towards a hidden camera.

' This guy is dumb, why is he telling me all this even though we have just met? ' Lucian thought then he spoke:

" Oh nice, you must be earning quite a lot of money then. Well I only came here since I was in need of some money and I heard they are going to pay well. But where did you hear about them from? " Lucian questioned.

" Someone I know told me about this job, I just need to do some labour work and I could get so much money so I came here- COUGH I came here to record only. " Jackie spoke, as they walked further they noticed a few others.

Soon they arrived near the factory, that was the place they needed to gather at.

Fifteen people had arrived there for the job, after they walked inside they saw two burly men with a dangerous aura around them, standing there in black clothes.

" I think that's all of them, go check them. " The first burly man spoke to the second, who nodded in response and walked closer to the twelve to inspect them.

He looked at all of them carefully one by one and even checked if they were carrying any weapon or something else, to Lucian's right a skinny boy who looked underage was standing.

Lucian brushed his hands against the skinny boy's body and when the boy looked back at him, Lucian just shook his head.

Then the second burly men arrived in front of Lucian after looking at him for a few seconds he began to check his clothes, and he was not able to find anything.

Then he moved in front of the skinny boy and after just a glance he spoke: " We can't bring you along, you can leave. "

" B- But I can lift heavy things without much diffic- " the skinny boy tried to speak, probably he needed money but the burly man just glared at him angrily.

So releasing a sigh he turned around and began to walk away, the burly man then moved onto the next person.
