58 Chapter 57 - Second Evolution

Chapter 57 – Second Evolution

The bluish-white and greenish-white light enveloped Fury forming a whirly spherical of bluish-greenish-white light. A few seconds later, the whirly spherical light stopped and it hardened trapping Fury inside it.

"What?!" Qin Yun was shocked but not Lucas.

"Evolution?" Lucas questioned. He was shocked at first but once the light hardened, it turned to a cocoon similar to before when Fury went through his first evolution.

[… Now, we can confirm that he has high luck… evolving with low-level treasure] Sery was speechless. Fury evolved with the Tier 1 Breaker and now, another evolution from a low-level treasure. What kind of luck was that?

Qin Yun glanced at Lucas when he heard Lucas say evolution with wide eyes. He was shocked when he heard that. "Evolution? Is this really evolution? Is it possible for evolution to occur with low-level treasure?" Qin Yun shoots his questions like a machine-gun.

"Sigh~" Lucas sighed. He looked at Qin Yun and nodded. Qin Yun was surprised and looked at the cocoon with amazed eyes.

"This is my first time seeing a monster evolve. It is written in many books that evolution is super rare and it usually happens by luck. Fury is really lucky," Qin Yun mumbled.

"What happens now?" Qin Yun questioned. "Do we take the cocoon and go home?"

"We wait until the evolution finishes," Lucas wanted to escape the dungeon too but this was an important moment for Fury. So, he did not want to disturb it.

Glaide suddenly raised her head and tried to get up. Lucas checked Glaide's stats from the system and her health had healed a bit.

"Glaide, keep going. We will stay here a bit longer," Lucas told her. Glaide looked at Lucas and dropped her head back. She continued absorbing the energy from the Blizzard Orb.

As the energy from the Blizzard Orb being absorbed by Fury and Glaide, the blizzard formed by the orb was reduced. The energy from the orb was not supposed to be depleted this fast. It happened because of Fury's evolution.

As the blizzard got weaker, they could see further from their position. Bit by bit, they could further and further. An hour later, the blizzard stopped completely and the Blizzard Orb lost its luster. It became empty and useless.

Lucas and Qin Yun sat on the snowfield and waited for Fury to finish the evolution.

While they were waiting, something unexpected happened. A surge of concentrated energy could be felt south of them. Lucas and Qin Yun were shocked by this energy.

"An enemy?" Qin Yun looked south of them. Lucas did the same.

"What is that? That does not look like a monster," Qin Yun said.

Far south of them, they saw a pillar of light standing tall from the ground way up to the sky.

"Is it another treasure?" Qin Yun said.

'What is that?' Lucas asked Sery in his mind.

[I am not sure either and I am sure that it is not a treasure but…] Sery stopped there.

'But?' Lucas asked.

[…] There was no answer from Sery.

'Sery?' Lucas called but there was still no answer from him. He called a few more times but the result was the same. 'What happens?' Lucas felt something bad would happen and he was right when he saw from the north of them, snow was dusting from the ground.

Suddenly, they could feel tremors from the ground. Foody jumped and got in front of Lucas. "Kii! Kii!" Foody looked serious when he said that to Lucas.

"Meow!!!" Raillow was alert too towards the north of them.

"Something is coming! Qin Yun, prepare for battle," Lucas ordered and Qin Yun nodded. He already knew that something would happen.

As the dusted snow was getting closer, they saw what was coming towards them. There were hordes of monsters. Wolves, rabbits, buffalos, tigers, and all sorts of monsters were coming towards them. Not only on the ground but also high up in the sky, flying type monsters were headed towards them too.

As the horde of monsters was getting closer to them, they tensed.

'This is bad. Fury is on his way to evolution. Glaide is injured. Only Foody left but he will not be able to fight this many monsters. Even when we Synchro, it is impossible to kill all these monsters,' Lucas analyzed the situation.

Qin Yun's face was pale. He knew they couldn't win. He could feel that the monsters were mixed from the weakest rank of 1 to the highest rank of 10. Raillow and he were too weak to fight the horde of monsters.

'How many are they? Hundreds? Thousands?' Qin Yun's leg started to shake. He was scared. Even with Lucas's extraordinary pets, it would be impossible to fight all those monsters.

Lucas, Foody, Qin Yun, and Raillow got ready to engage the incoming monsters. Even Glaide did her best to get up. She wanted to fight too.

However, something unexpected happened. When the hordes of monsters arrived, they converged and passed through their group. They did not even glance at them. Their focus was somewhere south of them.

Everyone was flabbergasted. They looked at the monsters with a startled face. Their eyes were not at them at all.

"Is it that light? Is that light something amazing?" Qin Yun asked.

Lucas looked at the light and nodded, "I think so…"

"But, why are Raillow, Foody, and Glaide not acting like them? They look crazy and thirsty. Our pets are monsters too but they do not react like them towards that light," Qin Yun was confused.

Lucas glanced at Foody and he looked normal. "Maybe it is because they are our pets. So, that light does not affect them," said Lucas. Since he could not contact Sery, he made that conclusion.

The monster hordes were still passing by them. They were surprised to see this many monsters.

"Are all the monsters in this dungeon head to that light?" Qin Yun wondered. Even if they had zero attention to the monsters, they still keep their guard high. Who knows? There might be a few odd monsters that were not attracted by the light.

Half an hour later, there were no more monsters passing by. All of them were somewhere around the light. Lucas and Qin Yun sighed in relief. The monsters were attracted by the pillar of light. None of them tried to attack them.

"I wonder what kind of treasure that attracts them this much?" Qin Yun wondered.

"Whatever that treasure is, I don't think we can obtain it. There are many monsters there. It is impossible to get it," said Lucas. Lucas tried to contact Sery but there was no answer.

He looked at the pillar of light and wondered if it was the cause of what had happened?

"After Fury finishes with the evolution, we will leave immediately. I am afraid that there will be a war between the monsters to obtain that treasure and we will get caught in it," said Lucas. Qin Yun agreed. They prayed that Fury's evolution would end soon.

They continued to wait and two hours later, the cocoon cracked. Once it cracked, a gust of cold wind got out of the cocoon.
