**RUMBLE!**


    Before Ss could check his body and confirm if there were any changes, the whole chamber shook, and he fell to the floor. Debris began to fall here and there, and the whole ce was now filled with dust.


    "Shit... the realm is copsing!" Ss eximed, his eyes widening in terror. He scanned the whole chamber, his heart pounding in his chest as he pondered how to get the hell out of there.


    Once the god of a realm is killed, the realm copses after a few minutes. Ss knew this, but he had gotten carried away by the system and its rewards.


    "What do I do? What do I do?" he screamed internally while ncing around the ce that was now copsing. He shifted his gaze upward and caught sight of a gigantic pir descending towards him at incredible speed.


    Reacting swiftly, Ss leaped to the side, dodging the pir by a hair''s breadth. He then began to dash toward the door he hade in through. As Ss ran toward the door, he clenched his right fist tightly, and when he arrived directly in front of it, he threw his fist forward with all his might.


    **BAM!**


    A loud banging sound echoed through the whole chamber as the door was sent flying instantly. Ss wasted no time and dashed outside the chamber, continuing to run forward.


    The only way out of a chamber was through a portable portal or the same gate they had entered from. Ss remembered where the gate was located, but based on the distance, it would take him hours to get there.


    He still had to climb down the damn mountains, and that alone would take him nothing less than an hour.


    "The realm will definitely copse before then! I''m not going to make it!" Ss screamed internally while running forward, trying to maintain bnce as the whole ce shook uncontrobly.


    Ss kept running until he suddenly halted his steps after catching sight of a figure standing a few meters away from him.


    "Damn... a mutant?!" He gulped down saliva after scanning the figure.


    It was a five-foot-tall mutant standing on all fours. The mutant''s head was tiny, no bigger than the fist of a newborn child, while its body was huge. Its ws were the length of a katana de, and its eyes glowed eerily.


    [Name: Tyrax Mutant]


    [Grade 2]


    While ncing at the mutant, a notification popped up above it. Ss nced at the notification, and when he saw the grade of the creature, a huge grin stretched across his face.


    "Grade 2? Tsk." He clicked his tongue confidently.


    The mutant red at Ss for a few moments before charging forward on all fours like a wolf. When it arrived within striking distance, it leaped into the air, heading towards Ss from above.


    Ss swiftly sidestepped, dodging the mutant''s ws by mere centimeters. After sessfully evading the strike, he clenched his fist and countered with a punch.


    **BAM!**


    Ss''s fist collided with the mutant''s tiny head, and the force behind the hit sent it flying backward. Ss waited patiently for it to rise back up and attack... but after a few moments, there was still no movement from the creature.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    "Hmm..." he mused as he made his way toward it to examine it. He dropped to one knee to inspect the mutant.


    The tiny head of the mutant seemed to have burst open like a balloon, and green blood was seeping out of it.


    "Well, what do you know? A single punch was enough to take down the bastard," Ss mused while inspecting the mutant''s battered head.


    Ss needed no one to tell him that it was the extra points he had added to his strength earlier that made it possible to take down the mutant with a single blow. If his points had still been at 10, it would have taken him at least five or seven strikes to y the creature.


    [Congrattions, you have in a Tyrax.]


    [Level up X 5.]


    [5 attribute points.]


    A notification popped up in front of Ss while he was busy examining the mutant, but he swiftly dismissed the screen and rose to his feet. He was in a critical situation and didn''t have time to scan through the system.


    He finally arrived at the edge of the mountain and stood there, ncing around the realm. From where he stood, he could see the entire realm falling apart, and the mutants that were still alive were being killed one by one by gigantic rocks falling everywhere.


    "Shit... what do I do? In less than ten minutes, this whole ce could copse." Ss gulped down saliva, his whole uniform drenched in sweat.


    As Ss was busy wracking his brain on how to save his skin, he saw a round blue light appear beside him, and a whirring sound could be heard. The swirling, blue glow of the portal was a stark contrast to the fading light of the realm.


    A few momentster, a circr portal formed, and three individuals emerged from it. They were all d in shiny blue armor and armed with high-grade mutant weapons.


    The group consisted of two men and a woman. The woman seemed to be in herte twenties, with long silver hair tied up in a ponytail, and her body was quite alluring.


    The woman, known as Kara, swiftly made her way toward the teenage boy.


    Ss let out a sigh of relief after catching sight of the group, and when he attempted to walk toward them, Kara pulled out a giant de, pointing it at Ss, with the tip only a few inches away from his neck.


    Ss''s heart skipped a beat, and he halted his steps instantly.


    "Stay back!" Kara ordered, her voice cold and menacing.
