《New Path》Chapter 20 - Chance
Advertisement
When the sun started to rise everyone started to wake up, eating something to feel their stomach no they didn't care too much about the food even if sometimes they will take chocolate or other things that might let them enjoy the day since they know that those kinds of pleasure won't last long.
Sarah after waking up and eating went toward Philip's room to check his wife's state.
And Philip sawing her followed her, last night Eillen was already awake and could move properly her leg wasn't injured and with the help of Sarah, now she was almost completely healed.
" Sarah thank you for your help, I know said it to you a lot of time yesterday but still, Thank You!! "
Eillen after Sarah healed her tried to see if anything was wrong with her body but no it was as if the wound of her body disappear letting some scar but compared to be still alive she could support it.
When those beasts went inside her home yesterday she hide her son then attracted them to let her son the time to hide and Somehow she killed them using the sword she took in this strange space with her son but she didn't know that she will have to use it until she was almost killed, her body shivered when she remembered the pain of having her skin cut by those sharp claw.
" it's good honey you're safe now "
Philip sawing his wife state, rubbed her back to calm her.
" don't worry about that but you should prepare yourself we will go at any time "
Sarah said to her then went outside letting them alone.
When she entered the dining room everyone was finishing eating, but it's at this time that they all heard voices of guns outside the house.
" Dear Citizen we don't have enough time so we are going to evacuate the city and lead you to a shelter other groups are doing the same thing, be quick and gather in front of your entrance we will wait only five minutes and when you come out, please stay calm and ordered "
when we hear that we all went to the windows, it's been one or two days we all thought that the government was blocked or stopped working something like that, but it seems even without communication some people were able to keep things in control.
I went near the window and looked outside and I saw that there was a group of people about forty or fifty with guns shooting at some small group of evolved beasts that should be at level two and even if they needed at least three or four bullets they still were able to keep the beast away to come in close combat.
But it was strange to saw them wearing medieval clothing with leather armor and different types of weapons at their waist.
" Should we go with them "
Lisa was next to me and asked me without being too loud not wanting others to hear that
Not that I couldn't understand why she act like that, of course, I also tough about it but thinking that with all the noise they make with their guns even if we could escape there would be more evolved beasts attacking us and maybe a level 5 or higher can appear.
I shook my head, and looked at the others they seemed to want to go.
" Ok guys we need to be quick do we follow them or not "
Edward after looking outside the situation asked the others for him it didn't change too much as long he could get strong, with the power he will not be controlled by the military at least he could keep some freedom.

" I think we could follow them if they are going in the same direction as us making it easier for us don't you think Alex told us "
she didn't forget what was important, and hearing her I started to think it was my chance for a quick level up I will not get this chance again,
' yeah like that we can gain energy point more easily since they would keep attracting more and after reaching some point if it's too much we can try to go alone '
" I am ok with that but I will no go to the shelter, I have others plan "
I told them I am not sure if once they found their family or not they will go to the shelter and besides don't like the idea of having to obey once again someone order even if I can be enough strong to build something myself.
Lisa hearing me was surprised at first but only nodded and agree with me the others saying where it goes quickly accepted.
Philip and Eillen were ok too so we took our bag and headed outside and just after we came outside we were attacked by four-level two dogs.
I was in front with Edward and Lisa shield ready, but when I saw an opening after they blocked them, I attacked one dog to Lisa side cutting his neck blood spilling on me, while she opened her shield violently making the dog in front of her lose balance she took this chance and finished him.
Edward with hector at his side also finished the two left.
We formed a circle with Eillen and her son in the middle with Sarah and Emily like always but we quickly found out that we was right there were people in the near house even if we didn't check those house, but they weren't as lucky or strong as us since just after left their house they were attacked by cats and rats the two groups fighting each other the right to which would take the easy prey.
Help, please !!!!
and one group of people with two men and one woman shouted toward the military not far from them, since they saw that they were helping other peoples two of which only led to scream and call for help everywhere around us, they were able to kill one dog by working together but the last two seemed determined to avenge their companions.
" Shouldn't we help them "
Eillen asked us while looking at her husband who was next to Fred but seemed indifferent to the situation.
" Sweety we can't you saw yourself how we were attacked just after coming out what do you think will happen if we go help them and get surrounded, the military said they will stay here only five minutes "
Hearing her husband answer she only sighed she know how strong those beasts are and seeing people being killed but unable to do something make her realize how weak she was, she needed to protect her kid and could only greet her teeth.
" where do we stay then, with how it is even if we go toward the militaries now it will not be of any help better take this time to finish those small group and gain free energy point"
John seeing that we were advancing but that we were attacked nonstop from all sides told us his eyes were shining with fighting spirit since after leveled he wanted to taste his strength and familiarize himself with the new surge of energy in his body.

it was true that we could go to the military but in the end, we will be exhausted, and we still don't know for how long the militaries will rescue people before heading to the shelter, I was pretty sure they weren't just here to help this neighborhood but just to gather and save as many people they can, at least it should be that.
So we choose one side of the street with vehicles in front of us and a barrier entrance of the house behind us.
We could see that there were people in this house since there was a curtain that opened slightly to the side and I could feel a small amount of energy coming from there.
And at each house, the same things happened people being eaten while others fighting together and decided to use their house to defend themself and somehow after two minutes, those that we're able to stand enough long were rescued by the militaries.
At the same time we were starting to feel tired since there were less dog and cat but more bird those annoying beast were more than the dogs, cats, and rats of this street almost creating a small cloud, and they kept on attacking us but thank Emily and Sarah we somehow manage to keep them away.
The other group chooses to just enter their house and only came out to attack the other beast when the bird stops attacking them.
" Are they crazy why do they come outside even if they know they could be attacked "
Lisa next to me said
" I guess some of them were able to kill those level two beasts by chance and level up quickly, but from what I see they didn't get it without having someone his arm almost broken or just being killed. "
Now that they know that they can be stronger even if there was a risk the temptation to have strong beyond human capabilities was enough convincing to let them take this risk since even in this neighborhood expect from the rats who were coming from an alley of the street there was only some small group of five or three of dogs and cats attacking us.
' We better hurry and level up and keep our advantage '
I know it will be hard for them to catch us with the huge cal level after the last that makes almost all the beasts reach level two unless some people gain a good talent like Claire it would be hard for them at least for short time, to close the gap.
After two minutes there was now a huge group of about One hundred and fifty people regrouped all wearing leather armor and weapon which lead the beasts to know that the party was over and they all started to retreat but some loner kept on the narrow alley looking for a chance to attack even more for the cats and their terrible agility jumping on the roofs, then disappearing.
" Ok everyone stays calm I know you lost your families and friend but it's not the time to let their sacrifice be lost in vain, so stay close to each other, we have three others place to go before regrouping with our unit, and head for the shelter "
One military who seemed to be in his late thirties came in front of the group announced to us when we will go to the shelter making people almost wanting to punch him.
" Are you guys serious did you see what just happened how many people died and you want us to redo it again but this time without our house to protect us "
A voice of a man or a woman came out from the crowd but the military seemed to already know someone will say that and continued.
" We didn't force you to come out of your house, everyone could have stayed in their house and wait that we came ner their house but some didn't do that and run toward us, do you think it's still the same era where you can run the street in a carefree manner, so please don't say that we also lost our brothers for helping you guys "
- " please everyone keep a distance from the person next to you otherwise it will be hard to protect you if everyone is stuck when we are attacked "
Finished talking he no longer listened to those that asked him something and started to advance to the next neighborhood, they all had their gun raise to the sky and street-ready for any attack.
For us, we didn't waste this chance and decided to go to the left side of the group with cars and houses that we could use as covers, some groups also did the same as us.
Just like that, we went to the three-place each about forty minutes from the others Everyone now was on the verge to faint it was a miracle that those people who were here weren't even level 1 was able to go so far, SInce each time the militaries announced in a new street a big group of rats and some dogs and cats were attracted by the number of prey that they could pick as they want.
Everyone started to understand how much earth changed rats of the size of a dog and dog of almost 2 meters, and somehow we also witnessed something new there was some small plant in the street and no one paid attention to it, but when someone that stamped on it without knowing was pierced by small torn that entered his body we all now kept close attention to anything strange, even if the person that got his le almost missed survived since this plant was pretty weak and before he could hurt more the guys he was cut making it lost his grasp.
But if we were to encounter a bigger flower how strong those vine or torn could be.
Now every one of our group was almost close to reaching level two we decided to advance in front when we get to a new neighborhood even if we were lost in a dire situation numerous times the gain compensate it and before this night we should be able to level up.
" You guys be ready we don't know if they will go to the center of town or at least go closer to it making it easier for us, so now we will keep our energy and step back a little when fighting "
I told them and no one was against it, they were all gasping trying to catch their breath, and sweating nonstop.
We just finished the last fight of the last neighborhood and those beasts started to augment in number and attacking us when we are resting making it hard even for us to stay calm, for the others they started to form a small group like us with at least one person with a shield in front.
I took this chance to look at my status
Name: Chris Specie: Human Talent: In process... Bloodline: Warlord - stage 1/10 [Low]
Path: [ leader - 8% ]
- Low Anatomy ( The understanding of organ and where they are located ) [ 30/30]
Energy point:1075 Level 2 - [ 0/2000]
I was surprised to see how much I gained today about one thousand energy point, the fact that the rats contributed to this was true otherwise, with so many people even if the number of dogs and cats was good it shouldn't help me gain so much in a few hours compared to our hunting for one day.
But when I saw that now my leader path moved to eight percent I was a little happy, this path was the only one of this kind, so maybe when it will be completed I will gain a huge boost of energy that would be the best.
For now, I looked at Low anatomy, I completely forgot yesterday to finish so since now we take a quick break of fifteen-minute I finished it and it disappeared from the Path I had followed by the familiar sensation of energy entering my head, I felt a surge of information about a different type of animals even those I don't know but I couldn't remember them all making me only able to get information about the common animals on earth and their vitals point which already was too much for mee I greeted my teeth, my nail piercing my hand.
It was as if my brain couldn't support the huge amount of energy entering my head and before the pain could fade away I received a new prompt.
due to the user's low level, most of the information is lost but can be taken back after reaching the common level of all species know in the multiverse (Level 10).
Again the same thing, it seemed reaching was really important even in the multiverse proving that either Human among the weakest race by their own fault or it's just that everyone need reach this level first.
" babe are you ok, what's happening to you said something "
it's only now that I understood I bleeding from my ears, I couldn't hear well Lisa wich was talking to me;
" I'm fine it's just that I completed one path and it seemed my level was too low. "
- " thank god you scared me "
hearing what he said Lisa could stop panicking, she was surprised when she suddenly him grabbing his head only to bleed from his ears, she took him in her arm calming her heart.
Chris on the other side wasn't ok with her weird behavior in front of everyone but quickly forget it and closed his eyes appreciating the time of silence.
Everyone looking at them could only shake their head helpless, they were too preoccupied to survive but this group seemed completely different from them their armor was garbage with how much it only keep on them because of the attach otherwise it isn't of any help to protect them.

World Step (Rewrite)
This is a rewrite of my story World Step. Though, in reality, this is my first serious draft. The shadows grow deeper on the planet of Whorrl even as a dark, and ancient ritual takes place within the depths of The Abyssal Mouth—a chasm of both fortune and calamity. The story follows Quintin, a Grandmaster Martial Artist from Earth, as unforeseen elements conspire against him from the depths of space. *No Harem *Strong MC, but by no means does he go through enemies without injury or at least learning something. *Throw on [Horror], and possibly [Psychological] elements. *Dark Fantasy with some [Grimdark] leanings. Notes: this will be a place where I endeavor to rewrite and fix issues. With that in mind, expect revisions, edits, and other things of that nature.
