Two days swiftly passed as Reign and the others continued their excursions to the depths of the mountain range. The portal had been finished the morning after the first excursion and the players all cheered in happiness after finding that they could now imdiately go to where the more powerful enemies were in order to level up.
No longer would any of them need to waste a couple of hours traveling to and fro the places, which was very valuable to them. Reign and the others continued exploring the depths, but they never wandered too far in as they knew that they were still not powerful enough to do so.
At so of the mountains, they could even see glimpses of New York City, they stared in wonder at the city and Reign had already notified Shadow's father about it. Both of them were very excited by the fact that they could once again see each other, but Hwang made sure to remind Reign not to be impulsive and to only co if he was certain he was powerful enough to cross the sea.
He had seen more than once what happened to those that were either scared or overconfident and tried passing. All of them were devoured by the fierce sea monsters, there were absolutely no exceptions.
M'azgara's forces had also grown and she was not at full capacity when it ca to her 14 Tier IV monsters, with 5 of them being granted consciousness and having the ability to evolve and think for themselves.
The 4 were nad Ulkor, Mozgot, Ilan, and Ploakon. All four were humanoid monsters with different monster attributes.
Ulkor was the speedy type, his legs were bent slightly backward and were pointed and seed sharp at the front. That was because they were, with the legs being taken from a monster that specialized in speed, and covered in hard chitin that was thinned out and sharpened at where the shins and knees were, Ulkor could cut through enemies with his legs easily.
His arms were similar and his entire body was covered in chitin, making him seem like a robot with the glassy violet chitin covering him.
Mozgot was the tank type. His body was 2.5 ters tall and he was incredibly buff and muscles and thick fur decorated his entire body. With large arms and hands that looked like sledgehamrs, Mozgot could crush enemies with his powerful, yet slow attacks whilst tanking many hits thanks to his thick muscles and fur.
Ilan was the monster with the most powerful offense. His body was more human-like compared to others, and if not for his furry tail and ears, one could easily mistake him for a human.
That was because they had co across a new species of monsters inside the fog, as well as so humans. They had no idea where the human ca from, but they were all entirely gray and their souls were gone, so M'azgara devoured them after they had killed them. There were only 3 humanoid fox monsters and 2 humans, so M'azgara was able to create 2 powerful humanoid monsters from them, those two were Ilan and Ulkor while Mozgot and the final one, Ploakon were created thanks to the bodies of the demons.
M'azgara was overjoyed when she found that she could use the Tier III demons as a basis for creating humanoid monsters, although she needed a lot of them.
Ilan had the greatest offensive power thanks to his arms, which were hollow inside. With the power he was given by the fox monsters, he could use flas, although not as proficiently as Wolf.
He could gather his flas inside of him before launching them through his hollow arms, his hands could be detached with ease, and upon launching the flas, an explosion would take place in front of him, and the damage from the attack was imnse.
The final one, Ploakon, was a mage type. He was a combination of a couple of monsters that had powerful spells that they used to attack Reign and the others from afar, mostly water, ice, and lightning.
He looked like an old man that was in his 70s, but that was only his face and relatively thin body that seed quite weak. Although his body was weak for a Tier IV being, he was still powerful, not to ntion that his magic was sothing else.
He could create a powerful magical shield around him that even Reign couldn't penetrate with ease and would need to use a strong skill in order to do so. Ploakon was able to utilize all three elents that the monsters had, although none of them were at incredibly high levels.
Still, with 3 elents that although not his innate skill as only the ice was, he could unleash devastating attacks and deal incredible damage to any monster.
M'azgara had also started creating Tier III creatures, and for them, she didn't take as much ti as the others. Of course, the creatures would be created back in Doncaster as it was simply far too much for them to be together with them in the fog.
The other Tier IV monsters were also left in Doncaster, with the order to protect the town if anything dared attack. The players were made aware of the 9 powerful Tier IV monsters below the underground city and ever since Reign had told them about their alliance with M'azgara, nobody was allowed to enter the caves anymore.
Soon, M'azgara could simply sit back and allow her brood to go out and explore before bringing back nutrients for her to devour before making more of them, never needing to go out, explore and fight for them again.
The 5 elite humanoid monsters she had created were of big help to Reign and the others as they had no problems dealing with one or two monsters of the sa level.
With 5 new helpers with them, it was much easier for them to fight against more monsters and they were able to progress deeper inside the fog without having to worry too much about their safety.
If things were to go wrong and monsters that were too powerful were to show up, Reign could always use his transformation in order to deal with the situation and get everyone back to safety. He had been warned by Aethion, however, that using the transformation inside the fog could end up with unforeseen consequences.
His bloodline was incredibly valuable and if the fog was allowed to sense it, it could start targeting him specifically, which could lead to him before suppressed more inside the fog and targeted by many monsters the very sa mont he stepped in it.
They had currently explored maybe about 30% of the territory that the fog encompassed, and that was a generous estimate as they had no idea just how large it truly was and were using the size of the area in order to estimate that.
After 2 whole days had passed, however, Reign and the others were t with great news as Beast had woken up.
They imdiately rushed to where Beast was resting and upon entering the room, they could see their old friend who looked to the side and smiled weakly at them.
"It seems I made everybody worry, huh?"
"Yeah, don't go around doing such things again, you hear?" Wolf said with a wide grin on his face as he sat down next to Beast while Reign went stood next to him.
"You know, I never expected for you to be the one to worry us, for god's sake man, how did you manage to make a Transcendent angry enough to attack you?"
"I ... I don't know, honestly, I have no idea why he had such a reaction." Beast suddenly said as he stared at the ceiling.
"I had just managed to evolve, and right as I was about to leave, I noticed sothing nearby, it was a plant that had borne a fruit, one I had not seen before the evolution."
"I hadn't seen it beforehand, it was uncovered thanks to the evolution that brought so destruction to my surroundings, and after seeing how splendid the fruit was, I plucked it, only for a terrifying pressure to suddenly descend as a person I had never seen before appeared."
"He was angry, like ridiculously angry, shouted things like 'How dare you take that?!' , 'That is not for soone as lowly as you to covet' and more."
"Before I was able to even get a word out, he used the world energy to push down to the ground, I could barely move my arms, and the fruit was dropped on the ground, further enraging the guy."
"I knew that the only way I could survive it was to use the dagger as the teleportation would still take a bit of ti that he could use to kill , so I took the dagger out."
"His deanor changed instantly, but I didn't wait for him to speak and imdiately used the dagger, the blow instantly killed him, cutting him in half and causing him to turn to dust that was blown with the wind, I reached for the fruit, placed it in my inventory and imdiately activated the teleportation as I sensed that I was going to lose consciousness soon, next thing I know, I woke up here."
