Chapter 18: An epic monster!


    Tyr follows after SKY Ocean Hunter being in the waters of the grotto means he can work at full strength. The entire area has luminous mushrooms on the inside creating light. The monsters moving around here are varied in both type and level. This grotto seems to be a small series of interconnected inds. Each slightly more high levelled than the other.


    SKY Ocean Hunter, swims underwater towards the deepest part of the Grotto. The central ind is a small hill with many fire type creatures. The gang makes their way towards the area marked on the map. As they step on the ind. The grass sinks into the ground. Bright Bugs sh in many colours. Several sounds of creatures fighting one another.


    Tyr pulls out his sword as SKY Ocean Hunter slithers out of the water. They are surrounded by numerous level eight creatures with less than thirty minutes left. Before the Scarlett Hawk is supposed to fly away north. In front of them are Red Bears.


    [Red Bear -Common Monster]


    Level: 8


    Hp: 4500


    Being low level and mostly unskilled they have no way to further analyse the Red Bear. SKY Ocean Hunter lets the Red Beare closer. Swinging his staff a value of two hundred damage. Tyr is back to using his spear. The Red Bear makes wide swings with its arms. They are also slow attack speed. They can all dodge with rtive ease. Of his fifteen stats that he got SKY Ocean Hunter, distributed his points evenly between his spirit stat - Power. Power increases physical damage and prating power. His mental stat Willpower and his primary stat strength.


    SKY Ocean Hunters health is able to tank the damage. his health falls by one twenty leaving with just under five hundred. The Red Bear has basicbat which threw SKY Ocean Hunter off a bit. He didn''t expect it to use a basic boxing move. Tyres in his attack only dealing about eighty damage. Nh Immortal angles herself around moving to watch the boys waiting for the opportune moment to strike.


    Tyr says, "why are you attacking Nh?" The only way they will seed is if they all attack otherwise by the time they are done the next Red Bear will already be upon them.


    SKY Ocean Hunter leaps forward. His powerful tail adding a speed that makes his next move even more deadly. As his body shes past the Red Bear. He swings his staff backwardsnding a shot on the back of the head of the Red Bear. The bear is momentarily stunned by stars appearing above its head. Tyr switches to the Sword and dagger hundreds of damage values in three seconds


    Tyr says, ''No one SERIOUSLY Just attack!" She is still dancing around the Red Bear moving in an unusual way. her blue swords start to hum with each step she takes the glow bing ever brighter. SKY Ocean Hunter deliveries another strong attack. the red Bear legs shoot forward as it falls awkwardly. With a dash, a blue stream shoots at the Red bear.


    Nh Immortal says, " Severing Strike!" This is a conditional strike from her new weapons. She picked these up while levelling with a bunch of other people after leaving that city that Ramata took them to. Where she got her clue about the merchant.


    The Red bear is met by a blue light that decapitated the head, a massive damage value of one thousand four hundred and three blitzes above the monsters head.


    SKY Ocean Hunter says, "What kind of skill is that?" Tyr isn''t confused he knows that some items can give skills. Hell, his ring does that very thing. However, he doesn''t use it because magic exhaustion is a real thing. He knows that there is some kind of condition or payment for a skill that strong.


    Nh Immortal says, "Oh it''s just a skill from these babies." she shows them the information about her twin des.

    Tyr whistles there are many different kinds of weapons in Oydessy. Sealed weapons can be a blessing or a curse depending on what they are meant to do. Conditional weapons like these tend to be janky until a person unlocks all the skills so that the conditions. From his point of view, this weapon can only be properly used once the other skills are unlocked. Tyr would be happy for her. If only they were range weapons like the...'' stop all that.'' Tyr thinks to himself.


    SKY Ocean Hunter says, " Who is Kept?" If he can also meet someone with special weapons then he might have a chance to be a Sea King candidate. Plus with the Shifting Inding out in about six hours. He will definitely have to go and explore there.


    Tyr says, " Yeh spill the beans." Kept is not an NPC he has heard before his interest in knowing. Just knowing about someone important can always be fruitful.


    Nh Immortal says, " I can''t say just yet. The others bound me to a contract but I can say he is a rank five NPC from my legion." Tyr remembers that Arknians leave in family groups called Legions. They have a socio-military structure and operate almost like Warring ns in Elguria. Elguria is one of the major eight continents housing mainly the Children of Geedorah better known as beast-men.


    Outside the grotto, 1-fifth is handed a bag of money by SoulStealer. HAs managed to leave the Trail Tower and is setting up a blockade so that they can wait for Thousand Styles Miles who is still on the seventh floor. On the second time around each floor was random and deadly. The only reason he died on the sixth floor was that he had to save Thousand Styles Miles.


    Tyr says, "Does that mean you be forming a team with them?" He is happy about this besides SKY Ocean Hunter who will be forming a Sea guild. Tyr needs the others to have their own. The benefit of having so many various races is that they can set up through the guild affiliation system an alliance that can operate in every sphere of Oydessy including sea, air, spirit and ground. Also with him having to focus on the firm he hopes to build. Having the others work independently will increase their chances of sess. Plus his guild is meant for his sister.


    Nh Immortal says, "says for a while at least, I''m still not sure if I want to."


    Tyr says, "you should do it having different experiences will only help us when we have to start doing dungeon raids."


    Nh Immortal says," Fine I will do it for now. Let''s get back to work that Scarlet Hawk won''t wait forever."


    SKY Ocean Hunter says, e on let''s go. I still need levels these bears are gold." The red Bear does give a lot of experience. five crafting materials on average and by the time they are at the location Tyr and SKY Ocean Hunter are both level seven while Nh Immortal has made it to level eight.


    The location on the map is directly ahead of them. Nh Immortal goes to the nest on the ground. it isrge and made of rock and other materials that produce a strong smell. The material is a key white cement-like substance all around the nest. Inside is a small Scarlet Hawk. It has red patchy feathers and looks like a skinny rooster that has been underfed.


    Nh Immortal takes out the sealing from aiming at the Scarlet Hawk. The process works rather fast and the hawk is sealed. Tyr looking at the nest remembers that a Scarlet Hawk nest should be in a tree or a cliff face. He goes through the thought nagging at him. Then he hears it''s a bell-like rattle. Several shades of scales appear before them as a real baby Rainbow Serpent appears before them. The worst part is that each of its scales is a different colour.


    Tyr sends the party a message


    [Tyr: Guys please can I have this monster?]


    [SKY Ocean Hunter: I want a pet for lux something cool!]


    [Nh Immortal: Me too!]


    [ Fine everyone will get an awesome pet but Nh you need better weapons]


    She might be able to one-shot monsters but her build would much better if she used a ranged weapon.


    [Tyr to Medium Bunz]


    [Please find as many different lifestyles yers as you can who will not mind a partnership. Also, please if possible get me a monster map of the area.]


    "HISS!!!"


    [Young Rainbow Serpent - ????]


    Level: 10


    HP: 10 000


    Medium Bunz is making her third different type of bread today. She is close to bing an amateur baker. With that, she will be able to make a variety of things. Medium Bunz says to herself, "I wonder what else he is going to find for me.'' A message pops up on her hud. She reads it shaking her head and types back.


    [Meduim Bunz: Of course but it''s gonna cost you]


    [Tyr: Deal and thank you!]
