Karsha, oblivious to the machinations against him, continued to advance steadily toward the white house where he intended to ask Ayarr''s mom some questions about the ind. So far, he has discovered some secrets about the ind.


    Initially, he thought there was only one ind. However, after winning the map, he discovered there was an inner area with a hidden gateway somewhere on the ind.


    Then there was the discovery of another gateway leading to a ce called Alcatraz, where a race of monsters known as Fallen Leviathans lived.


    There was also the Abyssal Leviathan Snake, the strongest of all the overlords. However, the map didn''t specify what kind of monsters they were, so he nned to gather as much information as he could before starting his missions.


    Aside from his mission to kill the ten overlords, he had a few other tasks toplete first.


    First, he had toplete the breakthrough quest within two days. Of course, killing Tier 5 and even Tier 6 monsters was something he had already achieved, sopleting the quest would be easy.


    Secondly, he had to hunt for the remaining nine pieces of the Book of Annihtion, which detailed the skills and weaknesses of the ten overlords. To do this, he needed to visit the remaining nine sections and kill Tier 5 mutants until he found the pieces. Now that the map could identify mutants, he was confident he could aplish this easily.


    This would also help him familiarize himself with each section.


    Thirdly, he would use the time to gather the ten venoms he had promised the old man. He needed venom from Tier 5 or above snakes: Amber Ambusher, Auric de, Grey Scale Cobra, Bloodstone Brawler, Obsidian Razor, Lava Wyrm, Jade Emperor, Ice Queen, Frostbite, and Bloodseeker. These snakes were scattered throughout the ind, but with the newest upgrade to the map, he could easily locate them.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Fourth, he had to farm for experience, skill points, and killer points. He nned to upgrade his skills to at least Tier 8 and incorporate as many as he could into the variations while raising their ratings to at least an A. It was going to be 13 days of non-stop killing, and Karsha was prepared for it.


    Lastly, he nned to absorb as much venom as he could. He also wanted to extract as much blood essence as possible to further temper his body. There was the issue of his Berserker Mutant bloodline, which could extract suitable bloodlines to enhance the strength of his ss even more.


    ''Ha, thirteen days won''t be enough. I need more time,'' he muttered to himself. He didn''t know how long it would take to kill all ten overlords, so he dedicated a whole 30 days. If he managed to kill them all in less than thirty days, he''d have extra time for other tasks. But for now, he needed information, and the one who could answer his questions was waiting for him.


    "Big Brother!" A little snake girl dashed at Karsha the moment he entered the white room. "I finished the meat you gave me." Karsha, who wasn''t ustomed to dealing with children, felt the need to resolve the situation quickly.


    "Here you go." He retrieved another piece of meat and gave it to her, hoping she would rush back to her mother. However, the girl used her sharp, finger-like ws to hold onto his clothes, indicating she had no ns to leave his side.


    ''Perhaps giving her the meat was a bad idea,'' Karsha thought inwardly before lifting his gaze toward the woman he wanted to meet.


    To his surprise, four other people inside the room looked like they had just woken up from a million years of slumber.


    "You''re here," Lady Illo said with a bright smile.


    "Are they..."


    "Yes, they are the ones who were poisoned when the humans invaded our domain and caused the ten savages to attack us," Lady Illo immediately answered without Karsha even having to ask. "They are the five shadow guards," she added.


    "Five..." Karsha raised an eyebrow. Clearly, there were only four people seated, so if they were five, who was the fifth person?


    "Haha, Ayarr, you weren''t wrong. Humans do have weird expressions," Lady Illoughed out loud, disying aplete 180-degree shift from her previous queenlike demeanor.


    "Ayarr is the fifth shadow guard, and yes, she has been following you for almost a week now."


    "I knew it," Karsha eximed with a satisfied sigh.


    "Wait, so you didn''t know I''ve been following you all this while. You just said I''ve been stalking you, were you lying then?" Ayarr asked, noticing how happy Karsha was. In her mind, Karsha had known about her existence since he told her just a few minutes ago, but from the currently satisfied smile on his face, she could tell he was lying then.


    "It''s called reverse psychology. I act like I know something even though I don''t, and ording to the reaction I get from you, I can tell whether my assumption is right or wrong," Karsha exined, leaving everyone with a dumbfounded look.


    "It''s a human thing," he added.


    "Anyways, I am Karsha, a Master stage cultivator." Karsha smiled as he introduced himself. He now looked handsome, much more handsome than when he first entered the ind.


    The awakening had changed a lot about him. His physique underwent the most significant change; his previous lean body had now added some flesh and muscles. Although he was still a long way from having a Chris Hemsworth physique, he could now hold his own with thedies.


    "A Master stage cultivator? What is that?" Ayarr asked, attempting to use facial expressions but failing horribly.


    "Oh, you''re not humans, so you don''t know that. Well, based on how monsters are categorized, a Master stage cultivator is on the same level as a Tier 4 monster." Humans don''t use the Tier system to measure cultivation bases; their system starts with Apprentice, Cultivator, Advanced, Master, Grandmaster, Semi-Saint, Saint, and so on.


    Monsters, on the other hand, use the Tier system. Tier 1 is equivalent to an Apprentice level human, and it follows from there.


    "Wait, if you''re Tier 4, then how can you kill Tier 6 and even a Mutant so easily?" Ayarr, who had witnessed Karsha''s battles, asked with a shocked expression. That expression was neutral to all beings, so she got it right.


    "I guess I''m not your average Tier 4 monster," Karsha replied, his shoulders held high.


    "Big Brother is awesome," Starr, who held a chunk of meat in her hand, said with a beaming smile.


    "Yes, Big Brother is the best," Karsha, who may have started to develop a liking for the little snake, ruffled her hand with a smile.


    "Big brother, do you want me to do your hair? Big sister Ayarr doesn''t let me touch her hair," Starr asked with puppy eyes. Looking into those cute snake eyes, Karsha couldn''t bring himself to resist, so he gave her the go-ahead, leaving the six adults in the room to shake their heads in pity. A decision he would regretter on.


    "Are you really the Annihtor?" one of the four shadow guards asked. He was a young man with short blue hair and blue snake eyes. Unlike Starr, who still had scales on her neck and hands, he had wless human skin.


    "I am nowhere near bing the Annihtor, but I would like to be him one day," Karsha neither confirmed nor rejected the idea of him being the Annihtor.


    Imagine a being that, when his name was mentioned, even gods would shudder and wet their pants. Many called him the destroyer of worlds, the bringer of chaos, the god killer. Legends about the Annihtor were legendary, and for someone who wasn''t even ready to kill one overlord, taking on that title would be pathetic.


    Karsha knew he had to earn that title. Killing the ten overlords was a start. For him to take on that title, he would have to work for it.


    "Okay. By the way, I am Dhaka, Tier 7 Purple Tail Anaconda, the leader of the Shadow Guards. I am a swordsman." For now, he would hold back his feelings and see how they progressed; after all, he had just woken up from over 40 years of slumber.


    "I am Tifa, Tier 7 Purple Tail Anaconda, I am a mage" A petite snake with silver hair flowing down her back also introduced herself. Her eyes are deep blue with a whitishyer decorating the pupils. Her perfect bone structure coupled with her glossy lips spoke volumes.


    "I am Killian, also a Tier 7 Purple Tail Anaconda. I am a shieldbearer" Killian is a slightly pale-looking young man. Maybe because he had just woken up from a Poison sleep. His hair is dark and his eyes are also as dark as the night sky. He is an eye-catcher. He is muscr and perfect for his role as the juggernaut.


    "I am Alida, also a Tier 7 Purple tail Anaconda. I am an Archeress" The fourth person who appears to be a perfect reincarnation of the Goddess of fire spoke. Her eyes were as fiery as the crimson night sky. because of her serpentine eyes, her gaze feels more predatory than a normal human would. Her red hair, a carbon copy of Karsha''s own flowed down her back like a waterfall.


    Unlike Ayarr and Tifa, who are C cups, Alida boasted an F cup, which stood firm and round in the white gown she was wearing. Her nipples struggled to be free from bondage. She was just gorgeous, and as someone who had traits of a pervert in his blood, Karsha took a screenshot of her perfect image, nning to revisit it when all was settled with the Overlords.


    "And she is Ayarr, an assassin, also my daughter," Lady Illo said. Karsha nced at his stalker for a few seconds before shifting back to Lady Illo.


    "So, tell me, Karsha, why are you on this ind?" Lady Illo asked, her gaze demanding an answer.


    In a casual and nonchnt tone, Karsha replied, "Oh, it''s quite simple; I am here to kill the Ten Overlords."
