《A Journey Through the Worlds.》107: Gigantic Centipede.

The room turned silent after William stopped talking before the middle aged man said:
"So no matter what the conclusion of the meeting is going to be we will start some activities?"
"Yes it will be like that." William nodded.
"Young master what are the first projects we will work on? There are a lot of options and possibilities, I think the people up above have some ideas about this, right?" The young man Timothy asked.
"One of the our biggest targets is obviously Area 12, but because of its war with area 05, it is under surveillance right now, so we better wait for a while for a chance to enter it.
"I also heard that some people are interested in area 24 and its habitant, so we can start from there, there are also some adrenalin junkies from the big and strong families who want to try hunting some monsters in New Earth, I even heard about some who had interest in fighting the zombies in Area 16.
"We can first start out dealings with those adrenalin junkies, they will pay a lot and its not hard to got them to those Areas, while trafficking with the other races from Area 24 will need more preparation and planning so we will wait for a bit." William said.
Actually like in any other world or nation, there was still a dark side in Area 01.
There were many strong families and organisations other than the Big Four Families which controlled the Alliance, yet they weren't as strong as the four, so in the end even the dark dealings and crime was under the control of the big four.
And each generation would have two people in control, one controlling the Alliance and acting as one of the Big Four Heads.
And the other working in the dark and keeping control over the black market and crime and other such dealings.
William was one of the candidates to be the next crime Lord in the side of the Axton family.
"So we should start out preparations to send them to some of the dangerous Areas, right?" The middle aged man asked.
"Yes, and as I said, let it be Area 16, I heard most of them want to go there, so we will provide what they want." William nodded while a slight smile on his face.

Area 03:
Ralf looked at the sensory around him before sighing at this marvoulass sight.
He was asked by his leaders to come here with his troops to accomplish an important mission, which from their words had a much bigger importance than they could ever imagine.

Ralf personally couldn't see the importance of the mission and why his leaders were stressing on it so much, for him it seemed unimportant and a waste of time for soldiers, especially in this new world and with the war and those lowly invaders.
Yet, what can he, a soldier, do except following orders?
"OH MY GOD... Such a magnificent sigh, Hahahah this is great! To think the world still have a place this pure and clean, oh God! Oh God! I knew that coming here personally would be worth it." Just as Ralf was still sighing while thinking about what a waste being there was, a shout was heard behind him, before a string of mad laughter was heard followed by a some emotional speech.
Turning around he saw a headache, it was Dr. Melor Brown, an almost crazy scientist, and Ralf somehow heard that he was the reason of this stupid expedition.
"Ralf, we are here, we made it, our project can finally start." Dr. Melor shouted as he struggled to move forward in the snow, Ralf wondered how can someone wearing one of the best armors still struggle like that.
Yes they were in Area 03, the frozen Area, it was a land where it snowed most of the time and temperatures were always below zero.
Ralf didn't care about what Dr. Melor said, it wasn't till the crazy man stood next to him and kept on talking that he asked:
"What work? Just searching for new materials won't do us any good, it would have been better if me and my men were on the frontline fighting, yet here we are, in this freezing shit hole."
After hearing what he said, Dr. Melor's face suddenly turned serious as he said:
"You have no idea how important what we are doing is, if my project works, than we wont have to worry about the seven Gods or most of the other people in New Earth, it is something our Area needs more than anything else, it is way more important than a few more soldiers in the frontline."
Ralf turned around, looked around him for a while before asking:
"What are we doing here? What is this project you keep on talking about?"
Dr. Melor smiled and said:
"The name of the project is... Gods Killers."

Area 10: Last Point Village:
Dan's team were sweating, while panting and struggling with the insects.
It was the third hour after they woke up and took over from the other teams, and it was getting harder and harder.
The insects were even starting to give them problems not to mention the other teams.

Actually if not for Dan's team, many people from the other teams would have died, whenever they saw that someone would die they would try to intervene somehow.
Right than Dan and Nero were fighting a ten meters tall green centipede, it had quite a hard green shinning shell and fast movements and reflaxses, both of them had to work together to make sure that non of them got injured.
Dan moved forward and cut at it in the middle with his axe, unfortunately it was way too flexible for that and it moved the part where his axe was going to fall making his hit miss.
It wasn't the first time that happened and Dan, understanding what was coming, retreated as fast as possible avoiding the stinger which shot toward his chest like a wipe from the end of its tail.
Dan wasn't ready for it the first time and he almost got stung because he didn't think that the centipede had a stinger at the end of its tail, because normal ones didn't have it, fortunately, Alexander had just returned back than and shouted at him in time to avoid, or the ending wouldn't have been that good.
The centipede's speed and reflexes were astonishing, so dealing with it was hard and took a lot of focus.
After missing him the centipede turned to Dan and lifted the front side above the ground and looked at him coldly.
The gigantic centipede's feet were also sharp and seemed as if they could do serious damgae if they hit you, so Dan and Nero had to be careful about it.
Dan didn't make any sudden movements when he saw the centipede stand like that, instead he clenched his hand on the handle of the axe and looked at it, focused, awaiting the coming attack.
And as he expected it shot toward him in an astonishing speed, and just as it did, two different things happened.
First Dan swung his axe, aiming towards its head which was coming to him.
And the second, which happened at almost the same time, was Nero who moved forward and swung his sword at its feet.
If people looked closely they would see that it had already lost many feets in many different parts of its long body, that was Dan's and Nero's work as they cut some of its feet whenever that had the chance.
Dan's axe and Nero's sword hit at the same time, Dan, using most of his power, deflected the attack of the gigantic centipede, while Nero's sword cut more of the monsters legs.
The insect got frozen for a second, but soon returned to its sense and turned again toward Dan while moving its tail to Nero who cut some of its legs.
Dan and Nero avoided as fast as they could.
The insect seemed find but it seemed that no matter how strong its shell was, taking a hit from Dan to the face was still quite a bad idea as there was a crack in its shining green shell, and it seemed somehow dizzy.
Dan didn't miss the chance and did an upward swap, hitting the bottom part of its face which was way softer than the hard shell on top.
The hit left a horrifying big wound, and made the gigantic insect hiss in pain and turn around, seeming as if it wanted to retreat, but of course non of Dan's team were going to let it go.
Dan started following behind it, and Mad Dog, after killing an insect he was fighting and seeing how it happened to be running toward him, turned and using his trusty hammer.
He gave the centipede a hard hit to the head making it stop in place for a few seconds while tilting its head to the side.
Nither Dan nor Nero were going to miss that chance and both of them moved in an astonishing speed making everyone watching stand there agape.
Dan used his momentum and hit the centipede to the head stunning it further and widening the crack in its face, and making even more green blood spayed out.
And Nero perfectly hit that point, pushing his sword deep inside it, making the insect release one last hiss before falling to the ground died.
Seeing the gigantic insect motionless in the ground, the group just looked at it silently for a bit before returning to the fight, they still had to fight for a while more before resting again.
When it was finally the time for replacment, they got replaced by team two and entered the gates while sighing in relief, having some rest was welcomed.
They found dealing with the last weaves hard, especially while they were trying to hide their superpowers and abilities.
"Thanks for the heads up earlier." Dan said while patting Alexander on the shoulder.
The later just shook his head and said:
"I should be the one thanking you for your help, if not for you and your group, we would have lost a lot of people this time."
Dan didn't say anything else he just moved and set in a corner along with the other team members.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
