Chapter 176

Lucky 176

Their job started and hordes of Shokoys came out of the vast sea. They raised their arms and fought them. 

Just like always, Calix used his unique power called aim-bot. As long as he could use his Luck, his precision to shoot the monsters won't falter. 

In fact, he was just standing and pulling the trigger of his gun. One way or another, the Aberrants would die. Nothing but a great overpowered spell. Might as well join a competition of FPS(First Person Shooting) games such as PUBG, Overwatch, Apex, and CoD. Calix has a strong chance of winning those games without a hassle. 

Anyway, just like Calix, the other girls were casually fighting the Shokoys without a problem. Marianne and Scarlett were just shooting their spells all around, destroying the monsters one by one. 

As for Yuna, she started getting used to this. Although her movements were still sloppy and tense. With her teleportation, she could jump around and escape anything. 

"I'm thinking that this team is indeed special... We have three 2nd Advanced, a teleporter, a living gatling gun, and a fire burst mage... We can defeat the Demon King now."

Calxi mumbled. He realized that despite being a new team, this unit already had the foundation to become one of the greatest. 

"Woah, is she serious?"

Calix glanced and found Nikki flattening the monsters using her heavy hammer. The jet-black with golden lining hammer was covered in blood, almost changing its overall color. Calix gulped as he looked at Nikki who had spots of blood on her face. She didn't bother wiping the blood. Instead, she raised her hammer and advanced toward the monsters. 

She stepped into the shallow water and confronted them. 

"Now that explains why she's called the gentle or quiet gorilla."

Nikki didn't open her mouth nor speak, she just attacked the monsters using her hammer. Her movement was smooth yet wild, every time she swung the heavy-looking hammer, one or two Shokoys would fly. 

"I guess she has the qualifications to join this team. She didn't have a Term Attribute but her pure strength is frightening. How bad will it be if I was hit by that hammer?" 

Oh boi, Calix don't create any flag. 

Just as his gaze was staring at Nikki, he felt a strong disturbance and immediately called Mento. 

"Mento, activate the shotgun mode."

He commanded and his uzi quickly transformed into a double-barrel shotgun. He aimed the shotgun at the water and pulled the trigger. 

Then, a howling cry echoed and three 3rd-class Shokoys appeared. Unlike the other Shokoys, these three were bigger and their hands had sharp claws that could shred a person into pieces. 

Because of Calix's shotgun, the beads successfully hit the three Shokoys. The three monsters wanted to attack them quietly while lurking in the water. 

"So that explains why I'm feeling tense."

Marianne said and Scarlett nodded agreeing to what she said. As these two women were experienced in battle, their instincts were telling them that something was odd. But it seemed that Calix's senses were much better than theirs despite Calix being a normal TA User. 

"But now that they appear, heh, they will die."

Scarlett smirked. She became famous because of killing a 3rd-class, so these monsters were nothing to her. 

Furthermore, their team had three 2nd Advanced, enough to fight three 3rd-class Shokoys. Just Scarlett and Marianne were enough to end these monsters. 

Serpent-like flames rushed to the monsters and roasted them, but their suffering didn't end from that. Before they even realized it, their charred bodies slowly turned into ice until they became ice sculptures. 

Nikki and Calix stared at the two with shock. In just a few seconds, they killed three 3rd-Class Shokoys. Usually, a team of seven soldiers was needed to kill one 3rd-class aberrant yet Marianne and Scarlett broke that rule. 

Nikki gasped as she glanced at Marianne. She didn't know this, she didn't know that Marianne was a 2nd Advanced too. 

Nikki knew that Scarlett was a 2nd Advanced because it was shown in the news. She comprehended that Yuna was a 2nd Advanced too, in the first place Yuna was the reason why this unit was created. However, Nikki didn't have information that Marianne was a 2nd Advanced. 

"Hmmph! Bunch of weaklings!"

Marianne scoffed. Nothing could beat her, she was confident that even Scarlett won't win against her, an actual High-Elf. 

.........

......

...

"These monsters, something is strange about them."

Scarlett narrowed her eyes. She felt that these monsters were not the usual type that attack rabidly.

"Yeah, I feel like they are smarter."

Marianne was the most experienced when fighting water-type aberrants. She knew that Shokoys were known to hide in the shallow water and attacked people. However,

"They are looking at us, since yesterday. No, to be exact, they are studying our movements and waiting for the right time to attack."

Marianne said, making her more confused and astonished. She felt like something was coming, something big.

"What do you mean?"

Yuna asked, she was the most clueless here. 

"..."

No one said a thing. Even Calix felt the seriousness of this moment. Why? Because he knew this kind of thing. This type of situation happened in the past, this stuff happened before the tragedy that killed millions all around the world emerged. The Blood Moon. 

.........

......

...

In a room where politicians from high positions gathered. 

No one could change their expression better, when they heard about the news, all of them turned grim. Remembering what happened a decade ago. The time when Obice was destroyed and monsters freely entered their country, was the most devastating moment for their country, no, it was the most devastating time in history. Once the moon turned red, the Aberrants would become stronger and frenzy. Their thirst for flesh turned them crazy. Yet, the craziness gave most of the Aberrants the ability to think, especially the 2nd-class and 3rd-class, making them more difficult to fight.
