?
On top of that he didn't suffer a single wound, not even a scratch! To them, this was what real legend should look like.
Yet when the monsters gathered up and made such colossal formation, they all felt a cold shiver down their backs. They heard rumours about a deadly attack that these monsters used to perform when they'd be pushed against a hard wall. Of course, Hunters or masters weren't able to pull such a feat before, and they only saw such a thing in the grand and epic monster wars.
Without a single moment of hesitation, they all started to run, just like how William did. At the same time, Angelica shouted to warn him, something that she didn't need to do.
*Rumble!*
William and others had only five minutes to run, not enough to cross a few kilometres before the world suddenly rumbled from behind. They felt like a massive thunderstorm just hit this part of the world, and then a fierce gale of wind hit them hard, taking them in the air, flying for hundreds of metres away.
"Hahahaha! It feels like old times, hahahaha!" Unlike the agonising Angelica and her team, William rolled on his back and started laughing in a weird way.
In the outer world, many battles against fierce monsters would end up like this. And that made William quite excited. He already gulped a healing elixir just when the explosive rumbling noise erupted. That was why he looked much better than everyone else.
Yet he was still feeling pain all over his body. He slowly stood up, looked around to see these monsters marching in unison, trying to close the gap with him and others.
"Run! Don't lay down on the ground or you'll die!" He repaid the kindness of Angelica by such a shout. As for himself, he didn't stand on the ground for a single moment and started to run using his technique.
He knew the monsters landed a fierce hit, but they also helped them all by throwing them away for hundreds of metres. Unlike fighting against small groups of monsters, the grand army of monsters had to slowly march forward to maintain their grand formation.
It was expected for the humans to expand the distance between them and the monsters by the time passing. After two hours, the sight of these monsters vanished from the horizon, making everyone heave a sigh of relief.
"You… You are quite crazy; do you know that?!" When William joined Angelica and her team, she couldn't help but point towards him with a finger and say this.
"I just wanted to test monsters in this world," William shrugged, "and they are so-so."
"So-so?!!! Did you hit your head or something?!!!" One of her team couldn't control himself and shouted at William, and the latter simply laughed and ignored such remarks.
"Are all monsters in this world like this?" William got what he needed, but he met with great danger when the monsters acted together as an army. It'd be bad for him if the monsters in this world were like this.
From her he knew this wasn't the normal case, but there were lots of such monsters in the world. As they grew up here, they knew which type of monsters they could hunt, and which they should evade.
"Let's go, my home is close by," after walking for two more days, meeting lots of monsters and evading them, they finally approached Angelica's hometown.
Angelica made sure that William wouldn't do anything reckless like what he did before. Every time they met a group of monsters, William tried to go and fight them, to get stopped by the entire team.
They gave him many reasons and information about these monsters, making him inwardly sigh and resign to their will. These monsters weren't that dangerous if he dealt with them in small groups. Yet all the monsters he met were in tens of thousands, and they were all quite intelligent.
They didn't just use grand formations, but few could also change the terrain and bring hell over the world if they wanted to. William knew this was something unique for monsters in the outer world, strong and special ones. And that made him quite eager to kill more of them.
"I have lots of cores already," he thought to himself while following Angelica and her team, "I'll settle in that town and start devouring these cores first. Then I'll find an excuse to head out and go to venture the world."
William knew he had to find a way to deal with the most stressing and urgent problem he got now. It wasn't to just go out from this world, but also to find a way to establish a portal to his tiny world.
He wanted to establish not any portal, but one that he could totally control. He heard from Angelica about a grand library, one that wasn't in their town but in a huge city that was thousands of kilometres away.
William planned to go to Angelica's town and rest there for a bit, gather more information, then he'd start heading towards that city. A library in such a unique world was a suitable place to find answers and perhaps secrets as well.
The town was indeed quite nearby. They walked for five more hours before William spotted twenty grand towers from far, looking like twenty spears rising up to the sky.
It was already dusk time, and white fog was filling the entire world now. Seeing these towers made William change his viewpoints of the masters in this world.
He took the wrong impression out of Angelica's fear and doubt towards fighting monsters. He mistook them to be soft boned masters, ones who didn't love to fight or seek power.
Yet when he saw the town, got close to it and examined the grand and thick walls, the large number of masters walking around it in patrol, he knew they weren't that lazy or weak.
