Floating Island - Triple S Talent - Chapter 14

Chapter 14: Item that gives Exp
Battles between the Sovereign Island and the Void Monster Rock Island are going on everywhere.

Somewhere in the sky, a 100 x 100 metre island could be seen merging with the Rock Island of the same size.

There were several defence towers on the island, and dozens of Nest Soldiers protecting the island from the attacks of the Void Monsters.

“Hilmi, stay with the others”

A man with an untidy face and a large shield shouted to a young man far ahead.

The young man heard his father’s words and quickly retreated. He rejoined the two women fighting the Void Monster.

The young man ran through the crowd of monsters, trying to reach his mother and sister.

What he didn’t realise was that at that moment, a very powerful arrow shot out.

From a distance in the monster area. It was a monster with long ears, big eyes, and a grey bow, smiling broadly.

[Gou Gou – Protector]

– Level: 20

– Species: Archer

– Attribute : Str 186, Int 102, Ag 138, Res 108

– (Arrow 3 layers) Each arrow that hits the enemy gains a layer of poison, then a layer of dizziness when the layer is frozen. Each layer lasts 5 seconds.

The young man who was running realised that something was wrong, but he didn’t understand what it was.

He seemed to be making a decision in his heart. Then he disappeared from his place and was replaced by an elephant-shaped void monster that appeared from nowhere.

A powerful arrow shot straight through the elephant monster’s body.

“That was close…”

The young man who had disappeared reappeared with his mother and sister.

“Hilmi, you were careless this time.”

His mother, who was holding the staff, stopped for a moment to scold the young man.

“Sorry mum, it won’t happen again”

The young man said with a remorseful face, then prepared to fight again.

Lein’s fears were true. Though his talent was terrifying, other people’s talents were not useless.

“Get ready! Fire!”

A loud shout echoed from the top of the extremely high city wall.

Rows of men lined up neatly, bows in hand, and unleashed a volley of arrows.

Sui…..si….

Thousands of arrows rained down on the attacking void monsters.

A Void Monster suddenly floated higher than the other monsters.

The Void Monster with the veil spread out both hands. A transparent, convex barrier appeared. The size of the barrier continued to grow to 100 metres.

“Sh*t…”

“Cannon Squad…. Ready…. Fire!”

A stern, wrinkled man shouted again.

This time it was the cannon troops on the wall and throughout the cannon tower that moved.

Hundreds of cannonballs flew towards the army of void monsters.

Once again, a human-looking Void Monster appeared. It made a hand gesture and then brought its palms together.

A 100 metre long piece of earth was lifted from the ground. The earth continued to rise until it finally stopped at a height of 100 metres, surrounding most of the incoming cannons.

“Damn… These Protector level monsters are quite clever”.

It was true, the void monsters blocking the onslaught of the archer and cannon troops were Protector-level monsters.

This time, there were over 100 Protector-level monsters. This was directly proportional to the size of the Void Monster Stone Island, which was 1,500 x 1,500 metres.

The Sovereign Island was no less large, measuring nearly 5,000 x 5,000 metres.

“Everyone… Attack…”

The wild man shouted again. But this time, the moving troops were completely different.

They were all sovereigns with formidable spirit and strength.

“Hey, come on… It’s time for our chance.”

“Yeah, I can’t wait to get the points.”

These few sovereigns spoke casually.

Then they all rushed out of the city towards the wave of void monsters.

Some flew, some disappeared, some ran, some went underground.

Only the system and they themselves knew what skills they possessed.

Lein Island

[Successfully killed: Dark Mask – Protector, exp +4600, kill points +2000].

Protector-level Void monsters are no different from ordinary monsters to Lein.

After 15 minutes of fighting, all the void monsters finally died.

Lein Island was a mess of void monster corpses, and the outer city buildings were almost half damaged.

“Brother… We can take out the monster corpses”

“5,000 more corpses will take a very long time.”

Nita complained from the side. Just imagine, it takes at least 2-3 seconds to extract 1 corpse. If there were 5,000 more corpses, it would take almost 3 hours.

Hearing Nita’s words, Lein also felt a bit dizzy.

“It looks like there’s no need to extract for now.”

“Burn the bodies and reduce them to ashes. Our top priority now is to repair the island”.

Lein sacrificed the materials and energy crystals from the monster corpses. But their priorities were now changing.

He even planned to increase the number of towers to over 200.

“Okay, brother.”

“By the way, there are already 3 group members who have made a teleportation portal.”

“Do you think we should start opening our teleportation portals?”

During the battle, some people in the group (Princess Nita) sent a message that they wanted to know the portal ID on Lein Island.

To connect the portal, only the Portal ID was needed, it was that simple.

“Yes, please, take care of everything. I’ll check the Rock Island.”

___

Lein ran straight for Rock Island, where the Void Monster appeared.

Up close, the surface of Rock Island appeared to be rough stone, with no soil at all.

Every 20 metres there was a hole 3 metres in diameter. Lein stepped into one of the holes to see what was inside.

It was quite dark inside, so Lein’s eyes could barely see any further.

He took out a torch with an energy crystal power source. The inside of the hole was clearly visible, all rough rock. There was a long passage leading to the core of the island.

Along the passage was what looked like a large cocoon. The fishy slime and odour made the walls of the passage slippery and smelly.

The cocoon had been torn open, indicating that something had come out of it. It was likely that the Void Monster had emerged from this cocoon.

Lein went deeper into the passage, and as he went further, a branch appeared. But whichever branch he chose, they all led to the core of the stone island.

Lein continued down the passage, through the branches, until he reached the deepest part of the island.

There was nothing in the core of the stone island except for a few larger cocoons and a Black Orb, which was cracked in the centre.

Lein approached it and looked at the description panel of the black orb.

[Alpha Orb]

– Remaining energy 92

There was no useful description on the Alpha Orb.

Unlike the Ruler Orb, which could be taken over or destroyed. The Alpha Orb offered neither.

Lein was about to close the panel when he saw the number 92 drop to 91.

“Is the Rock Island getting energy from this black orb?” Lein guessed in his heart?

“Then destroy it.”

Lein really wanted to destroy the Rock Island. If this black orb was the source of its energy, then destroying it would destroy the Rock Island faster.

Lein didn’t wait long, slashing at the black orb with his sword.

[Destroy Alpha Orb. Exp +91]

“What?”

Lein shouted inwardly.

But he didn’t have time to look any further.

There was a huge rumble, and Rock Island was about to be destroyed.

“Damn it… I’ll die if I fall from the island.”

Lein cursed his actions, then ran at full speed to leave the Rock Island.
