Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

As Erix and others proceeded ahead, they killed more monsters on the way.

Each monster killed gave them an Orb of Lost Ancient. However, none of the orbs gave [Key of Lost Weapon] as a reward.

But when they found a monster with 68k Power Level, and Erix killed it instantly to save time and continue forward, the Orb of Lost Ancient it dropped gave the Key.

"Use it on your weapon," Erix sent the Key towards Varan as it flew and arrived before him.

Varan was surprised, but after thanking Erix, he used the key on his Gada.

His Gada did not transform like Isabella's staff.

It became a golden color with dark brown and dark gold patterns instead, changing its structural property, but still retaining all effects.

As a special technology trait, Varan's Gada turned into a weapon that could change its size up to twenty meters! Although its weight increased tremendously, it felt as if it was light in Varan's hand.

"Woah, boss! This is powerful," Varan howled as he waved his twenty-meter-long Gada, destroying trees and boulders in the water.

"Its technology trait is also awesome," Varan grinned as he showed its details to others.

Technology Trait:

—> Power Smash: Consume three or more different types of energy and create a power core in the center of your weapon's head, making your next weapon as Power Smash that deals a powerful compact blast on-hit. The more amount of energy you consume, the stronger it is, and the capacity of the power core depends on your magic control efficiency.

"It's good. You can infuse various elemental energies based on your affinities after consuming Prana to produce them, use Spirit Force, and your class energy," Erix nodded. "All of them will also apply affinities' effects, and the act of attacking with your weapon will apply your Smash concept."

"Yes," Varan nodded while smiling.

"Observe that weapon's formation and power core when you use it. Learn from it so you can create a skill that powerful," Erix thoughtfully said. "I can see that this weapon's capacity of housing energy increased a lot more, and this Power Smash must be equivalent to a top Tier-5 offense-type skill."

"You can observe its formation and Power Core when you use it, to learn and increase your knowledge of magic."

…

Varan's weapon also turned into a Tier-6 one.

Everyone's weapon had Tier-6 materials since Erix had them, but their weapons were not at Tier-6. He lacked the intricacy and advancement to create a Tier-6 weapon.

'These weapons are lowest of rug in Tier-6 realms, but they still showed the transformative and capacity aspect of a Tier-6 weapon,' Erix thought while he leisurely sat on a sofa and watched others fight.

By the time they reached the end of the forest, another hour had passed by.

When they arrived there, it was a cliff with strange water filling it.

Although everything was in the water, this cliff was still filled with dark blue water and oozed out a magical aura.

The other groups had long arrived here because all of them prioritized breaking through the forest.

But the members of the top ones were missing or fighting the monsters.

Erix and others also soon saw a few people bringing monsters near the periphery of the forest's edge and fighting with them.

After all, everyone knew that the monsters gave EXP and transformed into an Orb that gave random rewards.

"You're finally here," Yelwon said as she smacked her lips.

Everyone saw Erix's group arriving and became active.

"Where's Rin?" Sameira asked in surprise.

Erix's group arrived at the Heavenly Melody group's location.

"She went ahead to scout. Let me see if she is in the range," Erix said as he closed his eyes and enhanced his spirit sense, using his Spiritual Mystic Eye to the max and detect Rin's presence.

During the past month, he had also increased his Spirit stat by roughly four hundred points.

"Brat, what's your Power Level?" Kenshin asked in surprise. "This Spirit Force is way stronger."

Erix grinned, "Everyone made progress in their affinities, so of course, we also made some and gained Spirit power. There's one more source like others, and it's Spiritual Art."

Everyone's spiritual art increases one's Spirit power if they train in it every day. The Way of Unfettered was rather special because it didn't give direct benefits like other Spiritual Arts.

Other spiritual arts gave people a power source, attribute, and new ability, but Way of Unfettered was unique and a very high-graded Spiritual Art.

Instead of other benefits, it gave them a place to get stronger faster based on their potential and talent, and a higher speed of increasing Spirit power. On top of that, its 2nd stage evolved Erix and other's normal Spirit Sense into a Spiritual Mystic Eye.

"As my Power Level, it's…" Erix secretly showed his Power Level panel to Kenshin and Sameira.

The guild members knew about Erix and Rin's true power level, but others didn't know.

Seeing the panel of Erix's Power Level, Kenshin slapped Erix's shoulder while laughing wryly, "Good. Don't slow down, haha."

"Or we will catch up," Sameira chuckled.

The other guild leaders arrived there for discussion, so the 2nd meeting soon began.

The current situation was as such.

The mysterious lake was their next point of entry because when people neared the lake, it showed a digital panel of entering the Baiandron Tribe's 1st region.

Entering inside meant they were finally going to make contact with the enemy.

However, instead of everyone entering at once, the guild leaders wanted to send a single team of people who specialized in escaping and scouting with their skills.

They wanted Erix and Rin to lead them because they were the most powerful and way ahead of others in terms of combat power.

"The idea of scouting ahead is good," Erix nodded with a thoughtful expression that soon changed as he smiled. "However, you should send your own team from different parts of this lake."

"It's a fifty-kilometer-wide lake, but I am sure that going inside will show us a whole new world of the ocean where these Baiandrones live," Erix leaned back on his chair and nonchalantly said.

But just as he was about to continue, the lakeshore near them burst out with a flood of water along with several powerful auras.

'Darling, It's party time.'

Erix's eyes flashed as he heard Rin's voice in his head. His eyes also cleared everything in an instant as he mapped the situation.

"Group up and get in your formations!" Sameira shouted and alerted everyone. The other guild leaders snapped out of their brief shocked state before they could do it on their own.

It showed how Sameira the Warring Artist was most readied of all in this situation involving a sudden challenge.

Everyone acted swiftly and ran away while Rin arrived beside Erix.

Some people were still slow, but Erix decided to clear the zone of incoming monsters that Rin brought with his move.

*Blink.*

Erix sent everyone within two kilometers of him away, teleporting them far away from the incoming threats.

Everyone found themselves several kilometers away, but also saw what emerged from the lake and trembled.

Not just from the sight, but the aura that they released and the power it waved towards them.

A total of four ten meters tall humanoids, but with an octopus-like head having bio-metallic helmets, and other bio-metallic aspects in eyes, limbs, and tentacles that emerged from around their necks.

Their hands held a large barrel rifle-like gun with a powerful aura as well.

One of them immediately pointed it at Erix and activated it. The Baiandron's patterns on its body shone as he pulled the trigger, and his Prana was consumed as the strange gun weapon released a neon glowing bar-shaped condensed dark blue bullet towards Erix and Rin.

'Darling, care.'

Rin grinned, while Erix's eyes glinted as he saw the power of this strange bullet containing concepts, water, and some other foreign elements.

'Plasma? Electric…interesting conceptual powers.'

Erix waited till the bullet was just ten centimeters away from him and Rin. It felt cool instead of heat, but Erix could faintly vision what would happen the moment it touched him. The power in this strange bullet was enough to render his and Rin's vitality to 0% without prepared defense.

'Let's see its properly.' Erix grinned.

A dark gold skeleton hand manifested right before his chest, coated by exotic hybrid metal with black, purple, and dark red patterns.

Erix sent Rin away with a blink teleport, but he shot back like a bullet while his dark gold skeleton hand that he created with Death element's fundamental energy Death Stream as a medium while his other powers gave it powers.

While shooting back like a bullet, Erix took one second to execute his move—teleporting himself along with the bullet that his skeleton handheld.

The direction immediately changed to a mountain nearby at the periphery of the forest.

Erix teleported again and appeared beside Rin while the big bar-shaped bullet struck the mountain.

*BOOM!*

Everyone's mouth turned agape at the power as the bullet enveloped the whole mountain that was two kilometers wide and two kilometers tall.

In the next second, a blast occurred, razing the entire mountain into tiny particles while intense sizzling of strange electricity and plasma churned and vaporized the water in that mountain area.

For a second, a bubble formed there, but it was swiftly squashed.

The ocean turned chaotic, and powerful currents manifested, pressing everyone.

"You really brought one hell of a party," Erix laughed out loud while his eyes glinted with the thrill and amusement he felt at this situation.

Rin didn't bring an ordinary enemy.

Each one of them had around 150k Power Level displayed when inspected!

Even Kenshin and Sameira had their expression turned somber.

Everyone had to protect themselves by creating a Prana barrier or those chaotic strong currents that were spreading everywhere would pull them chaotically in their flow.

"Humans," one of the Baiandron spoke in a jarring deep voice before laughing. "You will die."

And then, everyone heard a notification.

[Sudden challenge: Kill the four Baiandron Guards.]

[Destruction Progress chart of Atlantis has been unlocked.]

[Baiandron Tribe Destruction Progress: 0%]

1. Kingdom.
