"Chupacabra?" Ryan frowned.
"I know what you are thinking," Mark sighed again.
"I am sure," Ryan said.
Still, now that he thought about it, Fenrir was a giant wolf from Nordic mythology demons were also part of mythology. Although it isn't that old, anything related to Chupacabra is also mythology. That couldn't be a coincidence Echidna was also part of Greek mythology.
"That is not everything," Hugo added. "Even dragons are having a hard ti dealing with those creatures. Maybe it is because of them that the dragons are spending much ti hunting survivors like us."
"How co?" Ryan frowned. "I can understand they are having a hard ti against a small army of Fenrir, but not against creatures like Chupacabra. According to the legends, they only attack goats and so other animals, right?"
"We don't know the details since they mostly fight at night," Hugo shook his head. "But we do know that is what happens considering the corpses left off every ti they clash."
Those were so bad news, but Ryan was pretty sure that it wasn't sothing everyone should feel so depressed about it. After all, they were well-hidden in a military base. The chances of the monsters finding them were quite low.
"Is that all?" Ryan asked.
"No we noticed that humans are entering the Fenrir's dungeon," Mark's face darkened. "And they aren't going as prisoners, and they certainly weren't going to fight."
"I see I guess they received an invitation as well," Ryan nodded to himself.
"Invitation?" Daniel asked.
" While I was clearing a few dungeons in Nashville, a group of monsters invited to join their side," Ryan replied after a few seconds since it wasn't ti to get annoyed at Daniel. "Soone called Echidna promised the power to join her side."
"Echidna? The mother of monsters?" Tristan got up and then asked in shock.
"Do you know about her?" Ryan asked.
"A little bit I know that she gave birth to many monsters of Greek mythology," Tristan replied. "Cerberus, Orthus, Sphinx, Chira, Scylla according to mythology, she is a creature that has the upper body of a woman and the lower of a snake."
"So, she is like dusa?" Ryan frowned.
"No I am pretty sure she was supposed to be more humanoid than dusa, and she can't petrify those who look at her," Tristan explained.
Things were getting out of hand really quick. Still, that would explain why Alissa decided to change her modus operandi. If she knew that dragons were having a hard ti, then she couldn't underestimate those foes. Regardless, based on what Ryan knew, Fenrir was just a giant wolf. It wasn't supposed to be that smart. So, soone else was the real dungeon master, but who? Ryan's mory was quite fuzzy, but apparently, in the Ragnark, Loki used Fenrir to kill Odin or hurt him or sothing.
"Well, anyway, is the map with the location of all dungeons completed?" Ryan asked.
"Yes, once this eting is over, I will show you the details," Mark nodded.
"Okay," Ryan said and then left the eting room.
Although so serious problems appeared in the South and North, Ryan didn't get anxious. As long as a being is made of flesh and bones, that being could be killed, even if the thing belongs to so mythology. Even if his arrows were useless, Ryan could kill such creatures with Power of Money. It wouldn't be cheap, but it was possible. Still, he knew he wouldn't feel satisfied in winning like that, even if the other side has the nurical advantage. Ryan wanted to win and survive using the things he learned from his father. To do that, Ryan could only do one thing: keep hunting monsters and strengthening himself.
"I am already doing that, so I guess I need to focus on so counterasures to prevent the worst-case-scenario: my death."
Ryan had an amazing firing power, but he wasn't much more resilient than most humans, not even with his new equipnt. So, he needed to improve his stealth and movent skills. Keep himself hidden while he moves at his top speed wasn't sothing Ryan could do. However, there were other things he could do in order to keep his presence hidden. The first thing was to use Earth Manipulation and always attack the enemies at night and from above. That worked well against the reptilians. However, Ryan couldn't just wait for the sunset to hunt monsters, and sotis, the moon might reveal his position.
The second thing Ryan could do was to use Flash. Although that skill was useful, the cost of mana was too high. So, Ryan completely ignored it until now since he also could use so tricks to fool his enemy. However, the number of sapient beings that he had been facing was increasing, and cheap tactics won't work against them more than once.
Weirdly enough, the only place which ca to his mind to train was the warehouse Ryan had beco a person who couldn't care less about having a room to himself. Although that was weird, that was also the person who he had beco in order to survive in this crazy world where Chupacabras exist.
In order to train that skill as efficiently as possible, Ryan will have to go to an area where so dungeon breaks happened and then use the sa tactic he used the night before: make his summoned monsters recover his mana by fighting. Or at least go to a weak area where he can finish off the creatures with a single Fla Arrow.
"It would be great if I could recover my mana while I am not where my monsters are fighting but things aren't that convenient."
Eventually, the eting ended, and Mark appeared, but in the end, everyone followed him since they more or less had to plan their actions based on what Ryan might or might do. Although that was a pain in the ass, Ryan managed to hold back his sigh.
