His name was Larcy.
The name was given to him by the powerful instructor when he graduated from the organization's training camp with the best results.
In the ancient language, it meant tenacity and excellence.
As for his original name?
He didn't know.
As an orphan, he was adopted at a young age and before he got the name Larcy, it was always replaced by the number 21.
Therefore, he cherished the name Larcy a lot.
He even worked hard to make himself tenacious and outstanding.
He would always charge ahead when faced with missions that others wouldn't dare to accept.
This time?
It was no exception.
Alkender City was out of balance.
He had to bring the city back to its rightful state.
It wasn't about justice or evil.
It was just because of the mission.
At first, everything went smoothly for them.
Mordin's sculpture alone was enough to throw the whole city into chaos, but the one that appeared after that caught him off guard.
2567!
A commoner that shouldn't even be in their sights became an influential figure that could influence the entire plan.
Gluttony Monarch!
Just listen to the title.
Emperor!
He yearned for it.
That's right, yearned for it.
He really wanted to become the existence that stood above the masses.
More than that?
Nothing.
There was no reverence, no fear.
From his point of view, 2567 was just a mortal that got lucky and gained power after awakening.
He had seen too many mortals that lost their minds after gaining power overnight and were eventually devoured by their own power. He was no different from those who got rich overnight.
Larcy?
He was definitely different.
He received strict training since he was young and every time he went through the cruelest battles, he would hone his techniques and grow his strength.
If those awakened extraordinary individuals were nouveau riche, he would be the heir of a noble family with a long history.
His power was like an extension of his arm.
Every baptism.
Every time the inheritance was passed down.
Every time he received it, it made him proud.
It was because he realized that he was the most outstanding person in the training camp. He was the one and only.
Similar to the name he got, Larcy.
Tenacity and excellence.
Therefore, he felt that he was more suitable to be addressed as' Sovereign King '.
Although no one knew about it now, in the future, this honorific would definitely be known by everyone.
With the conviction in his heart, Larcy started his backup plan.
The backup plan he prepared for the unexpected.
However …
The plan did not go smoothly!
An ignorant clown interrupted his setup.
In the face of the other party's provocation, he did not feel that he should endure it.
Not only because it was a humiliation, but also because he wanted to use a more direct method to announce his existence.
As for the illusion in front of him?
Perhaps it was dangerous.
However, it was nothing. He had experienced too much in the simulation.
He knew very well that as long as he could find the key to break through, he would be able to get out easily. He might even be able to devour the person who set up the illusion.
Therefore, when he saw the little girl in the pink dress squatting on the ground, sobbing softly with her head in her hands, Larcy stopped.
In his eyes, she was very cute and soft, and he instinctively felt that she was an easy target to bully.
In Zhang Xuan's perception, the other party was pitifully weak. Even though he was slightly stronger than an ordinary person, he wasn't that much stronger.
Without a doubt, this was the best key point to clear the stage.
"Tell me, where is the exit?"
Larcy said gloomily.
"Sob sob sob, so scary."
As if she was frightened by his tone, the little girl's sobs turned into loud sobs. The sobs made Larcy impatient. He had no time to waste here.
A moment later, he grabbed the little girl by the neck and pulled her up from the ground.
The little girl's delicate face, golden ponytails, and blue eyes made her look like a doll.
Especially her blue eyes, which were misting up and tearing up, it would trigger one's desire to protect her.
However, that was only true for a normal person.
To Larsey, he didn't care about all that. A dagger was placed on the little girl's neck.
"Tell me, or I'll kill you!"
Larsey said coldly and in order to prove that he wasn't bluffing, he slightly pushed the dagger in his hand forward.
He had no intention of killing the little girl.
All he wanted to do was prick her skin and bleed a little to scare her.
But …
The dagger didn't feel like it was touching the delicate skin, instead, it felt like it was stabbing a metal armor.
On top of that, his left hand, which was holding the little girl's neck, somehow became heavier.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull the little girl up again. All he could do was let go of his left hand.
Then …
When he saw the little girl expand rapidly and turn into a giant, Larcy was slightly stunned. Then, he smiled in disdain.
"An illusion within an illusion?"
I've been through this kind of thing so many times in the training camp!
The more you do this, the more it proves that this is the key point! "
Without backing off, Larcy dashed towards the giant that he thought was an illusion.
It was just an illusion!
A single poke and it would shatter!
He would never feel the same sensation as stabbing a metal armor.
Ding!
The dagger stabbed the giant's calf. Just as Larcy expected, this time he didn't feel the same sensation as stabbing a metal armor.
What he encountered was … a tank!
And Alberto Lily, who was scarier than a tank!
Wuuu!
The huge hand clenched into a fist and smashed down on Larsey's head. The violent wind caused Larsey's face to contort. It was like a hammer smashing an egg. Larsey's entire body was about to shatter under this blow.
The tremendous force tore his muscles, bones, and organs apart.
Then …
The tremendous force smashed through the floor.
Larcy fell back to the second floor.
He saw the interrogator again.
"Do you think I'm pretty?"
The interrogator asked again, but Larcy, whose bones were all broken, didn't care about the interrogator. His eyes were staring blankly at the big hole in the ceiling.
At the last moment of his life, Larcy was in a daze, sobs sounded in his ears again.
"Sob sob sob, it's so scary, my little fists are punching your chest."
Larcy widened his eyes, his body twitching a few times before he died with everlasting regret.
…
The old car was parked outside a newly built but unfinished farm in the outskirts of Alkender City.
A 'No Entry' sign and several boulders and fences blocked the way in. The rest of the journey would be on foot.
"This is the place."
The shooter said in a trembling voice.
"Em, get off."
Ferris nodded, opened the car door and opened the black umbrella.
Compared to the heavy rain in the city, without the cover of the tall buildings, the suburbs were completely covered by the heavy rain. The unfinished farm in front of them was completely muddy. When they walked on it, their boots would immediately be swallowed by the mud. It took a lot of effort to pull them out.
The guide's steps were uneven, and it was extremely difficult for him to move forward.
Ferris, on the other hand, acted like he was fine with the umbrella.
The mud under his feet had turned into solid ice cubes, without the slightest bit of stickiness.
As for slipping?
For Ferris, ever since he had awakened his ability, he had never fallen on the ice.
Even though he awakened the cold air.
However, he felt an indescribable closeness to the ice.
It took them around 20 minutes to reach the only building in the farm from the unfinished gate. The guide's face was pale and his body was shivering due to the heavy rain.
However, he dared not slow down, walking towards the gate right away.
Bang Bang Bang!
The guide slammed the gate hard.
"Boss, it's me!"
The other party shouted.
But no one answered. The guide thought the heavy rain muffled his voice, so he slammed the gate harder and his voice got louder.
Still, no one answered.
No one answered, even the guide, who felt uncomfortable in the heavy rain, noticed something was wrong, let alone Ferris.
Even with the cover of the storm, Ferris could still smell the thick scent of blood.
At least three people's throats were slit.
Ferris speculated based on his past experience.
"Break the gate!"
Without any hesitation, Ferris said.
"Oh, oh!"
The guide hesitated for a while, but when he saw Ferris's cold face, he raised his leg and kicked the gate.
Bang!
A heavy bang later, the gate fell down.
A bloody stench assaulted Ferris's face.
Standing in front of the door, the guide, who was already feeling unwell and trembling in fear, could no longer hold it in when he smelled the thick stench of blood. He leaned against the door frame and began to vomit.
Ferris strode over the guide, kept his umbrella and walked into the room.
After he stepped into the room, the bloody stench got more pungent, but Ferris didn't feel anything and walked deeper into the room.
After he went around the porch, Ferris saw two bodies beside the dining table and one on the stairs.
The two bodies beside the dining table were decapitated and the cuts were sharp. The one on the stairs had his throat slit and the cut was clean.
Ferris glanced over the red milk and bread on the dining table. His mind naturally came up with the scene of breakfast. The guide and the others left and the others continued to eat their breakfast. Suddenly, someone snuck into the room without a sound.
Two people who were eating their breakfast didn't notice anything until their heads were cut off.
The sound of the heads falling to the floor attracted the attention of the person upstairs. The person shouted and carefully walked down the stairs.
Then, his throat was pierced.
Even though he had a gun in his hand, he didn't have the chance to fire a single shot until he died.
"I'm not sure if the attacker has awakened or not, but I'm sure he's good at sneaking around and is very fast.
His weapon is a short sword and he has a high level of attainment in it. "
Ferris, who used to be a math teacher, analyzed the clues before him in an organized manner. He then looked at the corridor beside the dining table.
At the end of the corridor was an open cellar.
"Is the stuff in the cellar?"
Ferris asked the guide who walked into the room.
"Y-Yes.
"We put everything in the cellar."
At least they were there before. "
The guide stuttered.
His companions dying one after another was obviously a huge blow to the guide. Fear unconsciously rose from the bottom of his heart.
Ferris walked towards the opened cellar.
Looking down from above, the cellar was pitch-black.
"Where's the switch for the cellar light?"
Ferris asked.
"It's beside your hand."
The guide walked over shakily and pointed at the light switch on the wall.
Pak!
Ferris pressed the switch. A clear sound later, the cellar was lit up.
The messy and opened boxes told Ferris that he was a step too late.
The thing he had been searching for for half a day was gone?
The feeling was terrible.
Unconsciously, Ferris frowned and wanted to walk deeper into the cellar.
"If I were you, I wouldn't go in."
Suddenly, a voice sounded.
Ferris quickly turned around. The cold air filled the air, and he saw a smiling man with the guide in his hand.
At this time, the guide had already undergone a slight change.
A common man wouldn't notice it.
But for an Extraordinary individual like Ferris, the moment he laid eyes on the guide, he felt a gloomy and cold aura from the guide.
Without a doubt, some changes happened when Ferris wasn't paying attention to the guide.
However, compared to the guide who changed, Ferris was more concerned about the person who appeared out of nowhere.
"It's you?"
Ferris squinted his eyes at Bloody Mary, who appeared out of nowhere.
Ferris knew about Bloody Mary, but he wasn't familiar with it.
He knew Bloody Mary was also loyal to that lord.
That alone was enough.
After the cold air faded, Ferris looked at Bloody Mary, waiting for a reasonable explanation.
"Because of some accidents, your place might be used as a breakthrough point, so the boss sent me here."
Bloody Mary tossed the guide to the ground as it spoke.
The moment the guide's body touched the floor, it turned into a ball of supernatural darkness and swiftly vanished.
"This is the accident."
Bloody Mary then walked into the cellar.
"You want to go down there?"
Ferris asked with a frown.
"Of course.
"What else can I do?"
Wait for the others to come?
"This is my job."
Bloody Mary shrugged, looking helpless. But right after that, it giggled and said.
"Thank you for your concern.
But don't worry, I am different from you. If it's you, you shouldn't go in, but if it's me, it won't be a problem.
After all … "
"I am stronger than you.
