Chapter 10: World Boss update and bad luck
An announcement made by Unicorn Corp. made everyone happy, and scared, at the same time. Air filled with suspense, as the update was launched and completed. They hinted at new bosses called "World Bosses," and that there would be over 20 different World Bosses. Each are unique monsters, with unknown levels, and unknown HP. No details aside from that. There can only be one World Boss of each respected type out in the world at each time. However, what excited users was the fact that they can spawn anywhere in Royal Road, at any given time. The scary part was, they most likely would need a Raid party to beat them, and they are highly intelligent. They could even come up with counter-plans to stratagem used on them.
When players heard this, a good amount accused Unicorn Corp. of sending in staff to play as OP monsters. However, they assured us that isn't the case.
*Meanwhile, back to our party*
The trip started like any other, selling off japtem from monsters, PKers, and bandit NPCs, as well as getting necessary food, ingredients, spices, water, apple juice for Anya, and an extra tent.
Meanwhile, while the boys shop and sell off loot and secure supplies, Anya has been latched onto Artemis this whole time, chatting with her, which was a weird feeling for Artemis, but both have been together so long they treat each other as family, so this feeling of awkwardness poofed fast.
The girls kept chatting away happily until.... our luck had to kick in...
???: "Hey! You over there! Aren't you 『 The Goddess Of The Hunt 』? "
???[2]: "OH MY GAWD it is! I can't believe I got to see 『 The Goddess Of The Animals 』 here!"

??? [Everyone]: "How did you get your skills?!" "How did you get so strong?!" "tell me how to dragon plox!" "give me your autograph" "Marry ME!"
Yeavon: "AGENT! GET THE GIRLS OUT OF HERE! I'LL BLOCK THEM!"
Agent: "WILL DO! Be careful!"
Anya: "W-will it be alright to leave him on his own?"
Artemis: "What if he gets hurt?!?"
Agent: "You don't have to worry about him...He's stupidly broken OP.... don't tell him I told you this, but he's a 『 Unique Class 』 called Holy Juggernaut."
Anya: " Holy Juggernut?" Anya accidentally messes up his class name and bites her tongue in the process
Agent sighs inwardly, thinking "SOOOO CUTTTE" but his face was that of a expert poker player, and didn't show any outward change, contrary to his inner fangirling.
Agent: "No, no. Not Juggernut, but Juggernaut. A Juggernaut is basically a huge, powerful, and overwhelming force....Basically, nothing here will be able to stop him.... the downside is: he's slow as fuck."
Yeavon: "*Sneezes* Someone must be talking about me ugh"
Yeavon: 〚AGENT SUMMON ME NOW!〛[Authors note anything like this in the future means PMing/Whispering]
Agent: " >"
Summon Capsules are largely unheard of, but that is only because the only one in the game that can make them is Eveechan, who is one of the Guild Masters of Hired Heroes. As the name implies, it lets you summon a teammate to your location, regardless of distance, if they accept.
Yeavon: ">"
A Bright light surrounds Yeavon. He totally fades out from the location he was at, similar to if he logged out, which users assumed he did, and left. While some decided to camp that spot, so when Yeavon logged in, they would force him to tell them the location of my teammates. Sadly for them, he didn't log out, nor would they succeed in getting him to talk.

Yeavon appears in front of Agent, as if he was always there, leaving Anya and Artemis stuck with open mouths, wondering what the hell had just happened. However, decided not to question it.
Agent turns around, and starts to get ready to continue on the path, when a loud "THUDDDD" could be heard
Then the ground started to shake, causing all but Yeavon to fall on their asses.
Yeavon: "GET READY! Whatever made that sound, I doubt it's friendly!"
And then all hell broke loose....
They all hear a loud "GWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR". It sounded too dull, too deep, to be from a human. In the distance they see a GIANT stone Golem that had a round body, similar to that of a boulder.
Yeavon: "Agent, I'm gonna use the guild mass summon pot!"
Agent: "OK! Leave it to me! I'll make sure if it starts walking over it don't interrupt the summoning"
Hired Heroes Guild Chat:
Yeavon: We found a World Boss. It's a giant Golem. We need some backup! I'm about to use a guild mass summon pot.
Tenks: I'll be ready by the time it's done
Eveechan: Won't take me long to be ready
Nibor: I'm down.
agentXshadow: Seems we're the only ones on at this time. I'm already here, guarding Yeavon during the summon. It will be ready soon.
Shortly after, all 3 guild leaders had the same message appear in front of them
DING
User Yeavon has used a wide-scale teleportation spell to Request your presence.
Do you accept?
Nibor, Eevee, and Tenks: "Yes! >
Flashes of light appear all around Yeavon, as the spell concludes. From the flashes of light come Nibor, Eveechan, and Tenks.
Eveechan: "So, I'm guessing that big monstrosity is what made you call for backup?"
Nibor: "Seems like fun"
Tenks: "Add us to party, then we can think of a plan for the big guy"
Player Anya has requested you to join her party
Do you accept?
After accepting the party invites, they get ready for one hell of a fight.
Before anyone has any chance to reply, or ask how we are going to fight something like that, the Golem sucks its hands into its body, then sucks its feet and head in, and starts to rapidly roll at us.
Yeavon curses at the golem with a chaotic grin on his face. He pulls out his shield, but leaves his sword sheathed, and takes a stance. The golem continues to roll at all of them. The girls try to run, but everyone from Hired Heroes stays still, confusing the girls even more.
Anya: "WHY THE HELL ARE YOU ALL JUST STANDING THERE?! WE'VE GOT TO MOVE!"
Agent: "Because we don't need to move."
Yeavon: "> > >"
Everyone watches as the golem rolls closer and closer, until it impacts Yeavon, who seems quite amused, as he flings the 100+ ton golem into the air with little effort, due to using its powerful roll and only lifting it up enough to use the shield as a ramp, and angled it so it would fly like a rocket into the sky.
A Loud THUMMMMMM is heard, as the golem loses 30% of its massive HP just like that. [Authors note: Fall damage's a bitch even more so if your stupidly heavy]

8 206Omnipocalypse Monsters(Shelved Timeline)
System Edit: This timeline has been shelved, but the adventures of the Omegas and her kids will continue in the next System Update Timeline with additional foes and challenges early on to guide the Omegas into a less destructive path of protection.The Omnipocalypse was every apocalypse humans ever imagined all happening at once, zombies, plagues, nukes, EMPs, Robot uprisings. Not just the earth either, It happened to every World ever dreamed up by men too: heaven, hell, and every other afterlife or spirit world ended, plus the worlds of books and stories bled into reality. It all broke apart and either; became new places on the chaotic Earth or part of the even messier spirit world. Magic beasts mutated by radiation, Robots mastering Magic, the mixture of everything made the horrors... well, more horrible. Omega; A young Woman with few memories wakes to find she has spent 2500 years in stasis, in a basement of scientific horrors. Creatures and Things that could supposedly destroy the world if ever let free. Horrors of which she was the last to get free. Rather then Quest for world domination or destruction; Omega keeps getting drawn into a protective role over other orphans, lost monsters, and broken AIs. So she decides to build something to help all her little monster family be safe. -------This story is meant to be a behind the scenes look at stories about kids solving problems that should be beyond them. I always wanted to see a story about Professor Oak, Dumbledore, or any other mentor who trains the main characters. I like the idea of someone looking at the apocalyptic world and deciding to make it safe enough that a small child can wander off and make some monster their pet. The pokemon games have fun systems to consider the behind the scenes workings of, like what training a team rocket member goes through to become a villain cut out for children to defeat. how they prevent a deific pokemon from accidentally murdering some little rat with its immense psionic power. However, the story itself is not really meant to be a pokemon parody, I draw inspiration from every genre of fiction, any type of game, this story is the only one I plan of ever writing without a clear cut ending planned, I love the infinite storytelling capacity of things like Doctor who's TARDIS, the Stargate or Rick's portal gun. In this case, I wanted the setting itself to be one where any and every story might happen. Cover Image by kalli gruen from Pixabay Discord Image by Digital Photo and Design DigiPD.com from Pixabay
8 262The Immortal Supreme
On the huge and vast planet named Zhou that lies near the edge of the universe, there lay 4 continents surrounded by an ocean even bigger than all the continents combined. There is the Teolim continent in the East, the Cold North continent in the north, the Hu continent in the west, and the ever prosperous Heaven Reaching continent in the south. Every continent is wracked with conflict as cultivators roam about searching for their own good fortune to achieve Ascension and venture further in towards the center of the universe. However, good fortune does not end up in the hands of whoever wishes for it. It comes to the destined few, the Chosen of their generation such that they may surpass their predecessors and bring more prosperity to their family through their own strength. However, there are still mortals who live normal lives in the 4 continents. Every one of which have the choice to walk the path of cultivation or to continue with the peace that eternally sleeps with them in their mortal lands. This is the story of how a young boy who steps into the bloody world of cultivation willingly and realises that it was not what he hoped it was. Witness as he slowly changes his attitude towards cultivation and the meaning to be a cultivator. Watch as he slays those that determined it right to slay him. Await his rise to fame as he achieves his Ascension and ventures towards the centre of the Universe, where he will make his name known to all the Immortals and reign supreme over them! Author's note: This is my first novel and as you had expected from the title, it's a xianxia novel. It's going to take a couple years to finish so stay a while. I will need your continued support to stay strong and finish this as fast as I can for all of you. Each chapter will have 2000 words at least. Posting schedule: 1 regular chapter a week. There may be an extra one so watch out for that. There may be a few errors here and there so I would like your assistance in spotting them. Thanks for reading! P.S the cover isn't mine, you can find it here. I just edited it a bit. https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Sword_Specialist_(3.5e_Prestige_Class)
