"New overseer…"Hearing those words, I had to buy a bit of time to find a way to react properly to it. Connecting the dots took me just a moment, but figuring out a way to secure my backside from the fact that rather than being sent here, I forced my way into this place,
"f.u.c.k that! There is no time to speak formalities! There is an intruder forcing his way here, masked as the observer!"
Coming up with the simplest bulls.h.i.+t I could create on the spot, I prepared myself to fight at any moment.
The responses of the ancestor that controlled the entire challenge were too human, too random to be automated by some being. And since it was sentient, there was no way it wouldn"t report the situation to its higher-ups!
And just like I expected, the moment this thought left my mind to wander through the endless void of where all the past thoughts go to take their deserved rest after being molested by one"s mind, the entire area was torn by the desperate cries of a ringing bell.
"WE HAVE INTRUDER!"
As soon as those words erupted in the area accompanied by the sound of the ringing, I could see a middle-aged man running towards us. Since I didn"t bother asking Pengu to retract his growth, the moment this man saw me on his shoulder, I knew I had to act quick.
"The one who first shouts FIRE is the ARSON! KILL THE INTRUDER!"
Instantly pulling out my snakesbite, I dashed towards the person in question. Seeing how I immediately took the action, the man that greeted me initially wanted to stop me, but in the end, remained exactly where he stood.
"What are you… HELP!"
Seeing that no one was going to stop me in my track, the man that most likely was the ancestor that ruled the entire fight stopped running and was about to turn around with the shout when I hit him.
Limiting myself to my pure, physical strength alone one again, I smashed the tip of my staff right through his head, instantly depriving him of his consciousness!
"What I"m supposed to do with this intruder? I"m sorry, but I"m still not used to this place…"
Rather than landing the killing spot right away, I turned back to the man that welcomed me to this place with the question on my lips.
"This man is not an enemy. While I"m glad that you told me about the risk, didn"t that invader challenged us to the universal supremacy? Since that"s the case, there is no point flaring up like that. All we need to do is to wait for him."
Shrugging his arms, the elder smiled at me. But his words were the last thing that he should tell me if he wanted to save the man I just incapacitated!
"So that"s the case. Then, where is my opponent?"
Crack!
As soon as my words left my lips, I coated the snakesbite with just enough entropy to make it meaningful, before cras.h.i.+ng it right on the head of the fake ancestor.
Considering how complex organ like a brain was, just a small amount of entropy was more than enough to disturb its actions. Compared to how much of this lethal force entered the cracked skull, I instantly stopped considering him as a treat.
After all, what I just did, was aking to submerging one"s head in a powerful acid of the modern, industrial age!
"What do you mean, what opponent?"
Despite seeing what I did to a fellow sect member of his, the greeting man had a face as if he didn"t understand what was happening. But rather than enjoying this moment, I was content with the message that appeared in my brain the moment the life of the man below me ceased to flow.
"Blop! Killed establis.h.i.+ng dominion cultivator! Awarding 50.000 experience!"
For the first time in a long while, I actually bothered to take a look at my experience gain. Ever since I reached my last limit, gaining either experience or the attribute points was simply useless, as I couldn"t use it in any way for my own growth. But with how my s.m.u.tty ways of robbing this world of the power for my own use were limited with Elia"s soul residing in my core, I had to return to the old and trusty ways of ama.s.sing the points!
Additionally, back when I went through the first system upgrade, the number of points rewarded per level grew by a hundred percent. At this point, I couldn"t help but wonder if that would be the case for the last upgrade as well!
"Since you are of the ancestor level, I have all the rights to challenge you to ultimate supremacy! Haha! Here I come!"
Dropping all the pretence of acting civil, I coated myself with a layer of entropy before kicking against the ground and adding some shockwaves behind my back.
With this newly gained momentum instantly carrying me over to the position of the man that greeted me, I brought the snakebite right towards his head!
"STOP!"
Yet before I could finish my move and get some more of those precious experience points, a powerful voice resounded in the area along with an immensely thick wave of energy that stopped me in my tracks and started to eat away my entropy!
Sensing that the big guns finally entered the stage I only smiled like a madman, before turning to the source of the words.
"You dared to interrupt the ultimate supremacy challenge? I think I know what that means!"
Despite how the people that controlled this entire land and folk below were clearly envoys from the continent tasked with managing them to make sure they would never dare to aim for reclaiming their old home, I knew that the rules that peoples of Monica kind would follow no matter what were worthless for them!
*Bonger. I think its time to activate my predator"s mindset!*
