<h4>Chapter 210: [Bonus Chapter] First Task</h4>


    Unlike Angus''s own cloak artifact, the other invisible cloak could malfunction if they are moving too fast. The maximum speed they could use is at a person walking speed.


    Moreover, it also consumes mana just to maintain the invisible cloak. The consumption mana rate is also higher than the one Angus had. Fortunately, Angus chose his team with the minimum strength of a third-gradebatant.


    The third-gradebatant has plenty of mana to supply the invisible cloak for a half-day, which is enough for Angus''s n.


    Arriving at the meeting point outside the Ancestral Ruin first, Angus immediately uses [Great Mana Echolocation] to detect the surroundings.


    "Hmm.. It seems it will take some time before the others reach here. The other team also began to move ording to the n. They move fast." said Angus.


    "Hmm… Let''s see.. The barrier is down like we predicted, and they seem to gather around. Well, let''s wait for the others first." said Angus as he also detected the other vige''s camp in the distance.


    In the meantime, Inside the other vige''s camp, at one of the biggest tents, "This is ridiculous!! Almost all of my men got poisoned!! Datun, you despicable!!" said a woman in blue-colored attire.


    "Me?!! Almost all of my men also get poisoned!!" replied Datun, the vige leader of ck rock vige.


    "But, you are the only one that has medicine to counter the poison symptom. Who else if not you that spread this poison?!!" rebuked the woman.


    "Calm down, Mirva. My vige elder detects that there is an intruder after the poison spreads. So, it should be the job of someone else." said an elderly in white attire.


    "How can I calm down? Right now, most of my people are dying, and the Sur vige coulde anytime. I knew this n was wrong from the start." replied the woman named Mirva, the vige leader of Clear Blue vige.


    "Mirva. Don''t be hasty to conclude. Almost all of my people also get poisoned. I believe it is an insidious plot from the Sur vige." said another person in ck attire.


    "How do you know that, Faskar? All my hired men have not found anything mysterious about them during thest few days. In fact, they use ourck of action and be bolder in doing their business." said Datun.


    "I also don''t have any concrete proof. However, the only one that will benefit from doing this is Sur vige. So, it must be their own doing." said Faskar, the vige leader of Infernal Vige.


    ''This poison is simr to gue Worm that we sent to their vige back then. But, I can''t reveal this to them.'' thought Farkas inwardly.


    "Hmm… I am not too sure about that. It may be your plot to reduce our power since you are the first one that proposed this n. Besides, one of your vige''s specialties is poison. Maybe this is your initial plot." said the elderly in white attire.


    "Ridiculous!! I only want to destroy Sur vige. Why should I spread the poison at this moment? If I truly want to poison all of you, you will be dead by now." replied Farkas.


    "You say what?!! Hm.. Let''s see who will be dead first!!" shouted Datun while releasing his mana towards the surrounding.


    Before Datun and Farkas could sh, "Alright, that''s enough both of you!! I don''t care if this alliance breaks, but I needpensation. Half of my people here are dying when they fend off the monster nearby. Some of them are fourth-gradebatants." said the elderly in white attire.


    "Hmph.. Greedy old Estar, It''s because your people are too weak. Besides, some of our people also died when they fend off the monster." said Mirva in a cold tone.


    "Still, my people are the ones that receive the highest casualties. So, you better pay up first!!" said Estar, the vige leader of Sky Wing vige.


    "Y-You.. Shameless old fool. I''d rather die than pay you up!!" eximed Datun.


    "Then, why don''t you die!!" shouted Estar while releasing his own mana aura.


    Looking at this, ''Tch… It seems this alliance is done.'' thought Farkas inwardly.


    Before the vige leader could sh with each other, "Leader, there is a movement from the Sur vige camp." said one of the men outside.


    Hearing this, most of them decide to hold back their mana. "Alright, let''s deal with Sur vige first. Then, we will discuss this matterter." said Datun.


    "Agree." said Mirva.


    "I can do that." replied Estar.


    "Yeah, let''s do that." said Farkas.


    Hearing the other vige leader agree. "What''s the situation inside the Sur vige?" asked Datun.


    "They seem to gather their forces in secret. Some of the Fifth-gradebatants could be seen leaving the ancestral ruin." replied the spy.


    Hearing the report, "Hmm… It seems they already noticed we camped out here." said Farkas.


    "Of course, fool. Who will miss this huge camp in the middle of the desert? I could even find this camp from dozens of kilometers away." retorted Mirva.


    "Then, what should we do?" asked Datun.


    "Let''s gather our men first. We can''t let them escape through different paths." said Estar.


    "Good idea. We should not let those imbeciles escape." replied Farkas.


    "Agree." said the other vige leader.


    Then, the other vige leaders arrange their men and call back all the monster hunting teams. At the same time, Angus and his team finally gather together.


    "Alright, it seems the other team''s movement has already been detected. Now, all you will be moved alone. Our first task is..." as Angus exins his n to his team.


    After a lengthy exnation, "Alright, is there any question?" asked Angus.


    "No, sir." replied the other four people.


    "Then, let''s move out, Also remember always to prioritize your safety." said Angus before he wore his cloak and disappeared from his spot.


    A few momentster, Angus already met a monster-hunting team that was on the way to return back. He found that this team does not have a fifth-gradebatant among them and only consists of three fourth-gradebatants with few lower-gradebatants.


    Taking a position from far away, Angusmands Draven to start ambushing them. A series of ck Spike immediately attack them from their own shadow [Shadow Spike]. Few people could not react fast enough to dodge [Shadow Spike] and died instantly.


    "Ambush!!" shouted one of the Fourth-gradebatants.


    While their attention focuses on the shadow spike, *Whoosh* *Bam* *Prang* a fourth-gradebatant dying with a tiny hole on his head. Even his safety item couldn''t protect him from [Snipe shot].


    "One down.. Two more to go!!" muttered Angus.


    "Tch.. Who''s it? Show yourself!!" yelled the fourth-gradebatant as he dodged the iing shadow spike from his own shadow.


    "Hurry!! Send a signal for he…" said the other fourth-gradebatant before another [Snipe Shot] pierced his head.


    "Tch... Where is it?!!" said the onlyst surviving fourth-gradebatant.


    However, his life was imed under Angus [Snipe Shot]. During thest few days of ambushing, Angus managed to get used to casting [Snipe Shot]. Now, he could reduce his casting speed by a few seconds less.


    Although it is not only a few seconds, the impact is quite significant as it means Angus could attack faster and prevent them from running away.


    Furthermore, he found casting spells only takes time for the first cast. It will reduce the time during the second cast or the third one since all the previous magic calctions still be applied.


    This is actually an orthodox way of casting a spell and not rmended for its instability. However, this is the best method for the current Angus in ambushing andunching sneak attacks from far away.


    After hunting the first team, Angus makes Draven store their corpse inside his shadow before searching the other team.


    Soon, with the help of Draven, Angus managed to kill a few teams that consisted of the fourth-gradebatant. As for the fifth-gradebatant team, Angus let them back to their camp.


    "I hoped the others could do their task as nned." muttered Angus


    Then, he looked towards the enemy camp direction before starting to cast a spell. After a long chant, "Wind earth brezee… [3rd Circle - Hurricane]." Angus yelled as he released a massive amount of mana to support the spell.


    *Whoss* A big hurricane immediately appeared before him moving towards the other vige camp slowly. Like a snowball, the hurricane umted with the other dry air and sand. In due time, it became a massive sandstorm that covered the whole horizon.


    After casting the spell, Angus slowly moves towards the enemy camp while regenerating his mana slowly.


    At the same time, inside the enemy camp, "Where is the other hunting team?" asked one of the fifth-gradebatants.


    "We don''t know, sir. We lost contact with them after they decided to go back towards the camp." replied his subordinate.


    "Tch.. why is it at this time?? Fine, gather the remaining people who still can fight."mand the fifth-gradebatant.


    "Did we need to use ves?" ask the subordinate.


    "Yes, use all of them. At least, they finally have their use." replied the fifth-gradebatant.
