The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 1245: Unexpected Ambush

Radiel felt his breath was stuck in his throat at the sight before him.

Upon raising his gaze to see the situation, he was instead greeted by Rex who was standing toweringly, looking down at him mightily, as he had thwarted Radielʼs attempt easily. But the sight that shocked Radiel was not Rex, but the two creatures beside him.

Grr...

Appearing out of nowhere, Radiel saw two wolf-like creatures poised beside Rex.

Like loyal pets, these two creatures waited patiently for Rexʼs orders.

Both have their crimson eyes, like rubies forged from the worldʼs malice combined, fixed onto him, growling in a low but heavy tone. These creatures were massive in size, even larger than the mutated scorpions earlier, their enormous forms rippling with menace.

Moonlight energy, the pure essence from the moon crafted their bodies.

Due to the energyʼs nature and influence, these creatures looked like silver shadows, making them look otherworldly and terrifying. Long tongues dropped from their panting mouths as if savoring Radielʼs taste from the air.

From their appearance alone, Radiel felt a shiver run down his spine.

He couldnʼt be compared to these wolf creatures.

On the other hand, Rex was also marveling at the two wolf creatures inside.

It was his new skill gained from devouring the mutated falcon, the Echo of Night Spirits skill.

...

Rank: Legendary (Tenth-rank)

Mastery: Low

Description: An area skill that allows the user to make a summoning ritual to summon beasts from the Silver Deity Penitentiary through a vicious roar. All offerings after the roar would be calculated, and the Silver Deity Penitentiary would respond by sending an appropriate beast depending on, the offerings. There are three levels, of the Silver Deity Penitentiary.

Having a high mastery would increase the number of summoned beasts and unlock their powers.

...

Initially, the skill the System favored from the mutated falcon was the Echo of the Sky skill.

An area skill, unleashing an enhanced roar that could dull the senses.

Since the mutated falcon likes to attack from above with its extreme speed in flight—it was a perfect skill for it in order to prohibit its target from dodging its dive. But Rex was not entirely satisfied with that kind of skill thus he used his remaining Skill Upgrades to upgrade it.

Now, that Echo of the Sky skill has evolved into the Echo of Night Spirits skill.

An area skill that scaled depending on his intelligence stat—having the same exact effect as the Echo of the Sky skill but has an additional utility of summoning powerful beasts from the Silver Deity Penitentiary.

Rex was eager to try this skill out, and the skill didnʼt disappoint.

It was extremely strong.

Using the killed mutated scorpions as sacrifices, the accumulated offerings amounted to the Silver Divine Penitentiary to summon the Eclipse Terror, which were these two wolf creatures beside Rex right now.

Glancing over to them, Rex scanned their stats.

...

...

Expecting them to be quite strong judging from their auras, Rex was startled by their stats as they were beyond his expectations. Considering that his mastery was still low—Rex was only expecting the summoned beast to be around the eighth or possibly the tenth-rank realm.

But to think that these two wolf creatures were this strong was unexpected.

From the distribution of stats, it was quite clear that they were focused on different things.

Nimborn was the defender while Amberis was the attacker.

Rex felt excitement bubbling inside of him as his new skill was extremely good.

I was annoyed by that stupid Lunar Bee but itʼs all worth it.

Having been complaining about that Lunar Bee who only knows how to run, Rex felt that his pursuit of that Lunar Bee was worth it since he managed to devour this skill. He would most certainly be thanking that Lunar Bee later on for this.

As he calmed himself down, he had a lot of questions about these two wolf creatures.

Despite wanting to ask the System immediately about them—Rex decided to postpone that desire and focus on the moment first, he still needs to deal with Radiel. Waving his hand, he commanded Amberis.

Responding to his command, Nimborn stretches his long tail and splits it into two.

He used both tails to grab ahold of Radielʼs wrists and lifted him up.

Radiel struggled to break free but there was no chance, he couldnʼt resist Amberisʼ grip.

”I will dedicate my countless lives in pursuit of your death, vile monster!” Radiel barked—his neck was bulging with veins. ”Even if you kill me at this moment, know that I will come back and bring the wrath of justice to you!”

”Go on, kill me! Do it you monster!” He added angrily.

Seeing that Radiel was still defiant, Rex smiled, ”Still vigorous, I see. No matter...”

”Letʼs up the stake, shall we?” He added, showing his black steel claws.

Knowing that Radiel has three lives, Rex decides to kill him one more time so that he is down to one life, and see how he acts then. But as his steel claws burn with power, and are poised to strike Radiel dead for the second time, he abruptly stops at a shout.

”Donʼt kill him!”

Upon hearing this, Rex glanced over to the side and saw Catherine sprinting towards him.

She was plastered with concern and panic, which was rather odd.

”Why is she panicking like that? Heʼll not die permanently even if I kill him now,” Rex mused.

It was weird for Catherine to be as concerned as she was right now.

”Just stop playing around—you didnʼt come here to torture them,” Evelyn suddenly said from behind, pulling Rexʼs attention to her. She then turned to Radiel, ”Donʼt get so worked up like that, he didnʼt mean what he said. Heʼs not actually going to make Catherine a slave, he only wants to know what an Angel is capable of”

Radiel was caught off guard by this, he was not expecting this to play out like this.

But still, he gritted his teeth, ”Then how did you get Catherine?!”

”Catherine trespassed into the Tigerman Kingdom, and she was captured there for the fault of kidnapping and tampering with her victimsʼ minds. A new power governed this continent, the Tigerman Kingdom is under that new power—and youʼre currently fighting with the ruler of that new power” Evelyn explained, convincing Radiel to stop.

Upon hearing this, Radiel turned to look at Rex and realized why he was so strong.

Just then, his eyes widened, ”Are... Are you the one who killed the Executor?”

Crash!

Out of nowhere—before Rex could answer Radielʼs question, a resounding explosion erupted beside them. Radiel, and Mavenna were shocked, but Rex and Evelyn were not. Both of them had already sensed a foreign energy approaching just moments before it hit.

Nimborn, alert to the surroundings, intercepted the attack.

He used his own sturdy body as a shield to take the blow, and he took that hit very well.

Purple residue from the explosion swirled around them—and when Nimborn shook his head and moved to the side—Rex and the others saw numerous gnarly creatures in the distance. Mentally counting, there were at least five of them.

”What in the hell are they?” Mavenna commented in utter shock.

Similarly to her, the others were also confused as to what they were seeing right now.

None of these creatures resemble any mutated animals or recognizable races.

Each one of them was a product of monstrosity as if God himself had abandoned them, each was a twisted amalgamation of limbs—and features that defied logic. As Rexʼs eyes focused, he saw a hole, a tear in the dimension miles behind the creatures.

Isnʼt that...?

Despite the distance from the hole, the energy coming from it was enough as a telltale.

Rex realized that the hole was a Chaos Phantom.

”Chaos spawns... How and why are they here?” He mused inwardly, frowning at the sight.

Upon hearing this Evelyn also frowned, she and Rex had talked about the problems that were happening that might be a threat to the empire throughout their journey, after making up—so she was also aware of what these Chaos spawns were.

”Desert Orcs were near the area, some of them might be corrupted,” She said.

Just like the Orc in Dargena City, there might be other corrupted beings outside.

Rex nodded as that made sense, he had already anticipated other Chaos Phantoms outside.

...

Objective: Eliminate all Chaos spawns and close the Chaos Phantom!

Description: Several hostile Chaos spawns have spotted the user—and bore killing intent for the user, eliminate all Chaos spawns, and close the Chaos Phantom to prevent the spread of Pure Chaos Energy from corrupting and thinning the fabric of the moral worldʼs dimension!

Chaos spawns eliminated: 0/6

Rewards: 2x Minor Chaos Embryos, 1x instant level ticket, and Chaos Rune Fragment.

...

Sensing the incoming Chaos Spawns, a sudden quest was triggered.

I was already planning on doing that.

Gazing sharply at the Chaos Spawns, careful as they possessed Pure Chaos Energy that was able to corrupt, even the likes of the Countess of the Dark Lunirich—he prepared to eliminate all Chaos Spawns without being touched by them.

He also needs to take care of this quickly.

If the Chaos Spawns were not taken care of immediately, their corruption would spread.

”Evelyn, Mavenna, bring them away and donʼt get close,” Rex commanded.

Upon hearing this—Evelyn wanted to say something but she refrained from doing so, seeing Rexʼs serious expression. Compared to the battle against Radiel, this one, was more serious, and that was reflected clearly on his face.

Not refuting his words, Evelyn pivoted and headed back to the castle.

She would be watching the battle from afar.

Mavenna also did the same, she was going to bring Radiel and Catherine away from here.

Listening to what they were talking about—Radiel, who had been released free and was now being supported by Catherine asked in a mixture of confusion—and also fear, ”Wh- What are those creatures? Iʼve never seen something like them before”

Despite being quite old, Radiel has never seen monsters such as these ones.

Additionally, he could also see the amount of evil within them, which was extremely choking.

It was as if their aura of evilness was tangible, able to choke him directly.

All of these creatures seemed to be the product of a nightmare.

No living beings should look like that and emanate that much violence.

As opposed to answering his question, Mavenna grabbed them both and flew away.

She could also feel the seriousness, in Rexʼs words—and she knew when to play around, and when she shouldnʼt—and now it was clear that she shouldnʼt play around. Energy-wise these Chaos Spawns were not that strong.

But there was something about them that made it normal to avoid them entirely.

Upon the others leaving the scene as commanded, Rex focused on the Chaos Spawns, he was trying to assess, which one of them was the most dangerous, with both Amberis, and Nimborn growling and ready for battle at his side.

Boom!

In the next instant, one of the Chaos Spawns opened its mouth and fired bullets.

From the energy these bullets emitted, they were charged with Pure Chaos Energy, and they were aiming at Mavenna, who was carrying Catherine and Radiel, heading back to the castle for shelter.

Not needing to be commanded manually, Nimborn quickly moved.

Trails of silver shadows were left behind him as he intercepted the chaos bullets.

Like earlier, he uses his own body to absorb the chaos bulletsʼ impact.

Simultaneously, knowing that this could get dangerous quickly, Rex didnʼt hesitate to shift his body into his Werewolf form, and darted ahead. He activated his powers to the peak, holding nothing back.

Keeping up with him on the side was Amberis, she was also galloping straight ahead.

Rex leaped and mounted her as his King Mark glowed brightly.

”Come on, Amberis, this is the first time I summoned you so you have to leave a mark!”

Roar!!

Swoosh!
