《Luck is a Charm》Magical Beast Riot (I)
Advertisement
Zhen was able to release some stress while torturing Diego because he's the type of person that Zhen despises the most.
Just because they're powerful and stronger doesn't give them the right to do whatever they want. Especially when he targets powerless women and forces himself upon them.
Cecilia was neutral though because she has seen much worse than this type. In the higher world, she has seen powerful cultivators use a virgin woman as an ingredient to make their pill.
Also, there is a common situation where those powerful cultivators suck the woman's yin qi dry to increase their cultivation.
Therefore, she wasn't affected by his atrocities and would simply kill them straight up if she met them.
She won't go as far as to chase and hunt them down but if they happen to cross, then she wouldn't mind having her hand-dyed in their blood.
Zhen didn't know how harsh is in the higher world but seeing Cecilia's nonchalant expression shows a lot.
Survival of the fittest, where only the strong get to be the righteous ones. This sentence is something Zhen has in his heart because if he was stronger, then his fate on Earth would change.
While he was in deep thinking, suddenly there was a loud rumbling sound that can be heard from all directions.
Zhen became alerted and asked Cecilia to use her spiritual sense to see what's going outside. After a few minutes, Cecilia said in a calm voice, "The riot has begun."
Zhen nodded at her word as it should be about time that the dogs would begin their plan. With their discussion prior, when the magical beast riot starts, the town would be extremely busy to defend.
That's when they will infiltrate back to the secret tunnel and see what item they're chasing for to make this much effort.

Zhen has been training for a long time and finally increased his cultivation base to the 6th stage of Qi Condensation.
Although it is still pretty fast compared to normal, he has no choice if he wishes to fight those dogs. They might be small fry in Cecilia's eye but for him, it was a boss battle.
While Zhen starts preparing to dress up in black similar to those ninja as he does not wish to be recognized when entering the town, Jason Flare was busy doing multiple management.
The scouts have spotted multiple magical beast hordes coming from the East and West sides simultaneously. They have to divide their army and defend from each side.
"You, hurry up and tell Commander Gerald to defend in the outer wall. Make sure he stays there to defend and if you spot any unusual activity from him, you're permitted to kill." Jason Flare said decisively to his subordinate.
Jason has captured many spies in town and left only Commander Gerald alone because of no evidence. Plus, he has influence and authority within the town so persecuting him without solid proof will backfire instead.
However, he can't risk having a traitor defend their inner town where everyone is located to discuss strategy and tend to the injuries.
It will create more problems and he will have an easy time allowing those magical beast hordes to enter the town directly if he fakes his task to defend.
"Understood City Lord." The subordinate kneels with one leg while accepting his command. He has a question regarding why they are permitted to kill Gerald but the city lord's order is final.
Jason Flare nodded and watched as the subordinate slowly dispersed from the office. A solemn look appeared on his face as this crisis was really uncalled for.

Pondering why they're suddenly targeted, a thunder strike thought flashed in his mind.
'C-Could it be.... they're after the item in the secret tunnel.' Jason Flare wonders in his mind as that's the only reason why anyone would be interested in plotting against the town.
============
East Side of Town of Ash~
"Hurry up and cast strength and dexterity on us."
"Yes sir!"
In the East Side, the adventurers and mercenaries are currently working together to fight the magical beasts.
Although they are scared by the amount of magical beasts gathering, they have their own pride and refuse to back down.
After all, they were born in this town and if they can't even defend their home, do they qualify as a man, to begin with?
Multiple people continue to chant multiple spells to blast the magical beast. However, it seems like the beasts are completely insane because if one died, the others would eat their fallen companion while rushing forward more ferociously.
"Goddamn it, just what the hell is this situation."
"I don't know but they're definitely mad to be this depraved."
While everyone complains and is disgusted by this scene, they didn't stop fighting back. They'll have to continue on otherwise once they're defeated, their town will be another town of ruin.
Something that none ever wants to witness again. Every time there's a town of ruin, plague starts happening and infection will spread. This is due to the beasts that went riot and mad.
The reason is still unknown but after the riot, all the beast will scatter and die in an unknown means. If dying means the end then everything would be fine but it's not.
Once they die, the black fog starts oozing out and pollutes the air. People who manage to even get near those black fog start coughing and in another few days.
They will become extremely sick and without medication or the proper treatment, death occurs and more black fog will pollute the air.
Slowly, this fog will spread everywhere to the neighboring town but those greedy kingdoms will be unaffected because they have high formation to block off this fog.
Many will try to enter the kingdom for protection but if you're not from an aristocratic family or have some background, you can only dream to enter.
For people like them who are born poor and worked their way in the adventure guild and mercenary guild. Their fate can only be infected by this black fog and waits for death because there will be zero treatment for them.
Every one of them is greedy and wants to live longer to enjoy life but if they don't work together to stop these beasts then they could forget about everything.
What's the point of obtaining a large amount of wealth if you don't have the life to spend it?
Therefore, they all work together at their best without holding anything back since no one would be dumb enough to backstab in this situation.
If there's truly a fool who doesn't care about their well-being and tries to backstab, then everyone would gang up on him and allow him to die with the cruelest method.

8 370Dead in the Water: A Dungeon's Tale
Waking up unexpectedly, trapped on a desert island is never pleasant. It's even less so when you wake up as a newborn dungeon core. Only time will tell if this fledgling dungeon will thrive, or if he's dead in the water.
8 196Hot Guy Cold Guy
Two exiles are forced by circumstances to travel together. Well, or one forces the other to follow. Hmm, no. One chooses to follow the other. Ah, forget it. It depends. Anyway, life is an adventure. Life in fantasy much more so. But, as in real life, some characters just seem to bumble foolishly along. Skah is one of those people. Meanwhile, others take it too seriously. The clash that comes from forcing these two people together can only be described as an adventure.
