Neo followed Liana, as they walked towards the gates of the inner layer. reaching the gates, she grab her smart device and let the control panel of the gate to scan it.after that quick scan, Liana took her smart device,and put it in her pocket again . Neo who was walking in the back, noted her actions, in his head.
*crannnk* *crannnk*
the gates mechanism suddenly starts, as the metal door slowly started to open by itself.
after the door was fully opened, Liana walked outside while being followed by Neo. the door on there back also started to close by itself.
early in the morning,bin the outer layer, Neo could see that normal people are busy working,
most of them are building wooden houses, while some are tending to there crops, and others are doing some mechanical stuffs.
"this place is much better than my previous fortress, in there we could only plant outside our walls. unlike here that they manage to cultivate almost half of the land inside the wall, into fields where food crops could grow, because there walled area is huge enough." Neo thought.
Neo didn"t realize it before, because Alice and him arrived in the fortress at dawn, where sky is about to go dark.
as they walk the road, citizen of the outer layer that they encounter would always nod and smile towards them, after realizing that Neo and Liana are members of the revolutionary because of there uniform.
"it look like evolved humans in this place, are being thought highly by its people," Neo thought.
in Neo"s previous fortress, revolutionary there tends to be unruly, so citizens would try there best, to avoid them on the road. because ordinary humans cannot possibly figth against a evolved human.
the gate of the outer layer is wide open, because people are working ouside, while some are dragging woods inside the fortress.
after Neo and Liana walk outside, Neo could see LHF-N1 Guardians that are wearing blue Kevlar vest while holding there weapons, are patrolling the outer side of the fortress, while letting normal people, cut down trees and dragging them inside the fortress.
Guardians are revolutionaries, that are tasked in guarding, the fortress and the people that are living there. unlike the scouts, they have a stable points and tier points income. but not all could easily rank up, they need to pa.s.s there promotion test first to increase it.
after walking away from the fortress Liana pulled her smart device and check for routes. Neo on the other silently follows her.
on the dense jungle, full of abnormally huge trees and vegetation, they suddenly encounter. a rabbit like creature with only two feet. it was as big as Neo"s leg, and has a 1 centimeter long dagger like horn in its head.
*roaaaar*
after it saw Liana, the rabbit like creature hurriedly acted aggressive, benting his head in her direction, it suddenly kicked the ground, as it launch its body towards the direction of Liana, trying to impale her with his sharp horn
*boom*
seeing this Liana calmly stretched his rigth arm and materialized an ice s.h.i.+eld.
*scrack*
the rabbit like creature"s attack failed to penetrate the ice s.h.i.+eld and it could only manage to create a small dent in it. after that the monster jump away from Liana. after it lands in the ground it didn"t attack anymore, instead its started eyeing its enemy.
Liana turned his head towards Neo, who already pulled his spear. she signaled him to attack the monster. before backing away.
Neo hurriedly clutched he spear , before das.h.i.+ng towards the rabbit, he tried to stab the rabbit like creature,
*boom*
the rabbit jump out of the way, where Neo"s spear. attack was directed.
seeing how fast the monster is Neo felt a little threatened. he tried to stab the monster for the second time, but then again, it nimbly jump out of the way.
as it land on the ground, the monster hurriedly jump again, but this time aiming this head towards Neo, who was still pulling his spear to prepare for another attack.
Liana who is watching on the sidelines, suddenly raised his arm, sending a palm size ice chunk towards the speeding rabbit, the chuck of ice hits the rabbit , that was currently flying halfway towards neo"s head,
the force of chuck of ice managed to s.h.i.+fted the flight path of the rabbit.and because of that, the rabbit like creature"s attack missed Neo"s head by a hair length.
Neo break out in a cold sweat, when he realized that, if Liana didn"t thrown that attack just now, he might been actually been dead.
it was actually Neo"s first time welding a spear, so it was expected, that he will likely not be able to use it properly.
Neo turned his head towards Liana and gave her a appreciative nod, before attacking the rabbit again.
this time, the attack he do are carefully made. he use the range advantage of his spear, so that if the rabbit decided to launch an attack towards him, he could have more time to move out of the way.
few minutes later, Neo did so many stab and swipe attack, but each time he did so, the rabbit has already move out of the way. making him hit the wind instead.
Liana on the other hand, found a small boulder nearby to sit in, while watching Neo and the rabbit exchange blows.
one hour later, the rabbit like creature finally showed signs of being tired, while Neo on the other hand was still full of energy, thanks to his stamina that was improved, by day to day heavy physical activities.
after a few more minutes, Neo, has finally manage to hit the rabbit like creature"s rigth feet , with a horizontal sweep with his spear, and disabling the monster on the process.
*roaaaar*
the rabbit like creature suddenly felt that he was in the disadvantage, so after landing on the ground, he used left leg to hop away.
but as soon as the rabbit like creature turn around and hop away from Neo, a crystal like ice shard suddenly flew towards its body.
*pseeek*
the monster body was pierced by the ice shard. but the force in the shard the didn"t disperse, instead it dragged the body of the rabbit like creature"s along with it, nailing it to a nearby tree.
*kacha*
*roar*
the monster struggled to pull his body from the shard, that is attached to a tree, but after few second later, Neo already walk forward and stab it in the head.
*grruuuuuuuur*
after a short miserable growl the moster died
*Ding*"successfully killed a [D Cla.s.s] (Stag Vorval Bunny) +4 token"
