reached the entrance of the inner area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere shifted; the air seemed thicker, more oppressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could feel the weight of the looming danger ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beyond this point, monsters were far deadlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I needed a Class-7 monster core to complete my task, so I had no choice but to venture deeper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I encountered one of these monsters, great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not, I could always change direction before it got too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that in mind, I soared towards the inner area, pushing myself to move faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The towering trees and darkened sky began to blur as I flew deeper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as I was settling into my pace, something caught my attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of warriors was heading directly towards me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My eyes flashed with a glint of interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wasn’t wearing my mask-anyone could recognize me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, I considered the risk of being identified, but I quickly dismissed the thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wouldn’t matter soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speeding up, I closed the distance between us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the trio of SSS-ELITE Rank warriors appeared to have just completed their mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were returning, perhaps unaware of what was heading their way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, they sensed it-my aura, sharp and unmistakable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment they realized I was alone, their eyes gleamed with surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this monster-infested region, plunder and murder were everyday occurrences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most warriors, unless they were overwhelmingly powerful, never ventured out here alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hunting teams were the norm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could hear one of them, a slender warrior with sharp eyebrows and a large sword strapped to his back, sneering as he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s a single fish coming our way,” he said, his tone cold and calculating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two warriors, his companions, each also armed with large swords, chuckled darkly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were dressed in Federation uniforms, marking them as members of the Federation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not that it mattered much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alpha City may be run by the Federation, but in this wild, lawless region, strength dictated the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, no one cared about official titles or ranks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s kill him before he slips away,” the slender one suggested, his voice filled with bloodlust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I remained cautious as the distance between us closed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My senses sharpened, and I quickly gauged their strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all Early Stage SSS-ELITE Rank warriors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A grin spread across my face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were strong, but not strong enough to make me draw my sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could handle them without breaking a sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As we neared, I quietly mobilized my blood energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A soft, invisible red hue enveloped my right arm in an instant, surging with deadly force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the warriors, a man with a pointy nose standing to the right of the leader, sneered at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hand over your storage bracelet, and we’ll let you walk away alive,” he taunted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Otherwise, you forfeit your life.” I didn’t bother responding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I merely snorted in contempt and kept moving forward, unfazed by their threats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The arrogant smirks on their faces twisted into anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They weren’t expecting this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes burned with rage, and I could feel their killing intent rising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had no idea what was coming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, all three warriors rushed at me, attempting to form an encirclement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was almost laughable-they had no idea who they were dealing with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they had recognized me as Zack Lockwood, they would have reconsidered attacking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But ignorance led them to their doom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, I charged at the slender warrior who had spoken first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes sharpened as he drew his sword, aiming for a quick, clean strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I was faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I sidestepped the blade effortlessly, feeling the rush of air as it missed me by inches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could recover, I drove my fist forward, aimed directly at his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The impact was deafening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My blood energy surged into my fist, and the crimson hue enveloping it shattered the warrior’s chest armor and bones as though they were made of paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes widened in shock and pain as the force of the blow sent him flying backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pfff!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood sprayed from his mouth mid-air before his body crashed into the ground like a broken doll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two warriors hesitated for a split second, their expressions shifting from arrogance to fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they were too slow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I vanished from where I stood, reappearing beside the second warrior in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He barely had time to register my presence before my fist collided with his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His features twisted in terror, but there was no escaping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sickening sound of bone breaking echoed as my fist connected with his skull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood spewed from his mouth, and he stumbled backward, clutching his face in agony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His knees wobbled, barely holding him up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the third warrior could even react, I was already beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face was frozen in disbelief, his hands trembling as he reached for his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My fist crashed into his chest with brutal force, and I felt the satisfying crunch of bones caving inward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes went wide in horror as the life drained from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body crumpled, folding under the sheer force of my blow, and he collapsed in a heap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In less than a heartbeat, all three of them lay on the ground, writhing in agony, barely clinging to consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their pride, their confidence, shattered as quickly as their bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, I had rendered three elite warriors helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three warriors stood frozen, terror gripping them like a vice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their once confident expressions had twisted into masks of pure dread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They exchanged desperate glances, silently searching for an answer, but there was none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before them stood a lone warrior, whose aura was so overwhelming, they couldn’t even begin to measure his strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if they had unknowingly challenged an immovable force, and now, they realized they had kicked an iron plate-a mistake that would cost them dearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, my focus sharpened, instincts honed like a blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I felt the energy within my body ignite, flowing through my limbs as I charged towards the nearest warrior with lethal intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, I executed the technique perfectly, my movements fluid, precise, deadly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every step I took closed the distance between us in a blur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior, forgive us!” The warrior’s voice cracked in terror as he threw his hands up, pleading for mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His shout echoed across the battlefield, but his fate had already been sealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Blood Fist,” I whispered coldly, my voice barely audible over the rush of wind as my fist rocketed toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment it connected with his skull, the result was instant and gruesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sickening crack filled the air, followed by an explosion of blood and bone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head burst into pieces like a ripe watermelon smashed against the ground, spraying the remains in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The horrifying sight hit the other two warriors like a hammer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their comrade’s death, brutal and swift, drained the last remnants of courage from their veins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stood, paralyzed for a heartbeat, their minds unable to process the carnage before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, as though the very essence of their souls had fled their bodies, they broke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a single word, they turned and bolted in opposite directions, their wounds slowing them down, but desperation and fear is fueling their escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that, my eyes flashed with a cold glint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I chased after the nearest warriors, my heart pounding with a fierce determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I invoked the “”Lightning Phantom Technique””, feeling the surge of power as bolts of lightning arced around my legs, crackling with raw energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, my speed increased exponentially.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, I closed the distance between myself and the fleeing warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lightning Finger,” I whispered, my voice barely audible over the hum of electricity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, a thick ball of lightning formed at the tip of my forefinger, glowing with an intense purple hue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I pointed my hand at the enemy, my aim steady and true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lightning beam shot forth, a dazzling streak of purple light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It struck the back of the warrior within seconds, the impact force sending him hurtling forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Argh!” A muffled grunt escaped his lips as he crashed into the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, I appeared behind him, my movements swift and precise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I struck his head with a decisive blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pfff!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The head exploded into pieces, a gruesome display of power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood splattered on the ground, painting a macabre scene of victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I turned around, my senses heightened, and started moving forward to chase the third warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air around me crackled with residual energy from my previous attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, the third warrior was fleeing frantically, his breath coming in ragged gasps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no idea of the fate that had befallen his comrades, but a primal fear gripped him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that if he didn’t escape from this place, death would soon follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he moved forward, panic clouded his judgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paid no mind to the directions or the lurking dangers of the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current terrain was treacherous, filled with “”Class-7 Monsters””, their menacing forms hidden in the shadows, waiting to strike at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warrior’s desperate flight through this perilous landscape only added to the tension, each step echoing with the possibility of doom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Aravind_S Creation is hard, cheer me up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>VOTE for
