Chapter 227

Lucky 227

'... That's right. Now I remember.'

A blood-curdling scream reverberated as millions of creatures crawled from the gash. A woman with red hair was kneeling on the ground, crimson blood was rushing out from every pore of her skin and she was slowly dying.

Yet the monsters did not dare to get close to her, flame encircled the woman and anyone would die in a fire if they get closer.

Scarlett could not handle the pain, it was worse than the time that she breakthrough the 2nd Advanced. This was hell.

Her skin was gradually melting. Her eyes already lost this focus long ago. Even her consciousness was returning and disappearing back and forth.

In the midst of this suffering, Scarlett recalled something important. A memory that she did her best to forget, the time when her mother died.

Scarlett and her mother were visiting Bronal at that time, but because of an unfortunate event, the Blood Moon happened and her mother started acting strangely.

Her mother kept screaming and her eyes were crying blood... Then, a horrible phenomenon risen from her mother.

A beautiful crimson tree came out of her and her mother lost her life. Only the red tree was there.

'Maybe I was scared and purposely erased that memory in my mind.'

It did not matter, now that the same situation was happening to her.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!"

She screamed and the turbulence of fire rampaged, the already melted road further melted. Even the monsters around her did not dare and ran away. They knew that they would die if they were close to her.

"I don't want to die..."

Scarlett weakly muttered her skin peeled off and her gruesome flesh could be seen.

......

...

...

"God damn it!!"

Calix loudly cursed as he rolled to the ground and evaded the tentacles of the Kraken. He was still on the shore, as for the others, Calix lost her vision of them.

When the Krakens appeared, the crack of the island further spread, and more monsters came out with outdated weapons. Yet, these wooden spears were still a hassle.

"I feel like I'm fighting primitive people instead of monsters. They surely can think!"

Even huge monsters like Krakens used their brains. They maintained their distance from the island and they were only throwing rocks from afar. But because of Calix in front of them, their job was disturbed so they have to eliminate Calix.

Calix did not let that happen. He raised his weapon, Mento turned into a semi-automatic shotgun since one Kraken was close to him. So far he chipped 15 tentacles and he already killed one.

However...

"How can I kill almost a hundred Krakens?"

That was the question. Calix understood that his weapon could transform into different types of guns and explosives but there were still limitations. For example, he could not create an atomic bomb... He was thinking far ahead.

"Well I can use RPG but it will take some time to eliminate all of them, and I don't have that time to do it."

Calix had to save Scarlett. Each of them scattered and Calix was hundreds of meters away from Scarlett. Furthermore, Calix had to look for the others too.

Fortunately, all of them were wearing their Battle Suits so Calix didn't have to worry for the time being. Their suits were tough.

"Let's just hope that everything will be fine."

If Calix knew that the Blood Moon would happen, he would have sex with all of the girls for a day just to make sure that they have enough stock of Luck. But not everything would work to his advantage. Just like now.

"I didn't suffer any injury but these monsters keep me busy!"

He pulled the trigger and the missile of his RPG flew toward the nearest Kraken. Its head blew up and it slowly sinks into the ocean.

Calix gritted his teeth. Then, he started using his RPG nonstop. He did not have to worry about the ammunition because his weapon was powered by an endless battery. Fortunately, each one of the missiles hit its targets and the monsters were killed in one shot. Still, Calix was not satisfied.

His priority was not to fight these monsters, he had to save his family.

"Guah--!! You bastard! You think I will be defeated by a weak Shokoy like you!!"

An angry roar could be heard and a strong gush of wind shot forth, then, dozens of Shokoys tumbled to the ground, and most of them were wounded.

"Ptui! You weaklings! I tell you, I've killed more Shokoys than you ever know!"

A guy who had bruises on his face appeared. He looked strong.

"Devon!!"

Calix was surprised to see Devon. He thought this mercenary returned to the mainland after he delivered Patricia to their house.

"Huh? Calix Romoel, what are you doing here? Wait what the fuck? Did you kill these Krakens!!?? Singlehandedly?"

Devon was dumbfounded when he found dozens of Krakens sinking into the water. Despite being an expert, Devon understood that he could never kill a Kraken unless he became a 3rd Advanced.

"Yes, I killed them."

Calix did not have a reason to lie.

"As expected from the son of the Steel Legion!"

He was impressed and proud that this person was the one who defeated him in a glorious battle.

"Wait! That's not important right now. Devon, I need you to help me. You're a mercenary right? I have money to pay so can you help me to find my friends(girlfriends)!!"

Money was not important to him anyway.

"Hoh, so be it!"

Devon didn't ask anymore. If Calix asked for help, he would try to help him as long as he could. This was the cost of being defeated.

Devon's body started emitting mist, the mist that came out of him was hot and scalding. He punched the air and a shockwave flew, creating a path for them.

"I will make a path for you, just do your best."

"Thank you!!"

Calix promised that he would compensate him well. He realized that this person was not that bad.

Devon started throwing punches and the monsters in front of them blasted to pieces because of the shockwave.
