The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse - Chapter 789

Chapter 789: The Caring Brat
Klaus created another fortress like the one destroyed back in Monsterland. This time, he went the extra mile and ensured it was fortified using his abyssal ice.

He barely used his ice elements during the battle, so at least this was a good use for them.

Though the fortress’s core structure was made of immortal ice to speed up his team’s recovery, he was now protecting the main walls using more robust ice.

Klaus had now recovered his strength, and all his wounds were healed thanks to his star qi, immortal ice, and many cores.

One good thing about the Paragon Star Diagram he was cultivating was that whenever he formed a new core, regardless of how many drained cores there were, the drained ones would be recovered when a new one was formed.

So, the moment his eighth Sovereign Core formed, he became as good as new, like someone who hadn’t just fought a life-and-death battle with a monstrosity for nearly four hours.

This was a shocking sight to his friends and the soldiers around.

Queen Lunara, Nari, and Queenie were currently seated on an ice mat, recovering, yet Klaus looked as good as new.

Even his hair was straightened, and it looked like he hadn’t just fought a marathon.

“How is he good as new when he basically handled the entire fight?” Queen Lunara wondered, staring at the handsome young man attending to the injured teammates.

Klaus was now clad in a simple dark pair of trousers from the waist down and an armless shirt, so his buff physique was 40% on display.

Naturally, the ladies staring at him couldn’t help but take a couple of gulps—his women included. Even Queen Lunara couldn’t keep her eyes off him.

Klaus was every lady’s dream. He was handsome, capable, and very caring.

Though his teammates were injured, the injuries weren’t enough to make Klaus worry. Despite that, he was doing his best to speed up their recovery.

This side he was showing, this caring side, was doing more than healing the injured.

Unbeknownst to Klaus, he was charming the beauties around him. It was a shocking sight to the men who knew what was happening.

Klaus’ friends thanked their lucky stars their ladies weren’t on this mission this time around.

Of course, they couldn’t deny the fact that the white-haired bastard truly deserved this much attention from the ladies.

After a while, Klaus was done with the last person and approached War God, Liu Yang.

“Thank you for helping out this time around,” Klaus said, shaking his hand. War god Liu Yang was the leader of Team 10, who had gone up against the Void Serpent.

Thanks to his combat prowess and knowledge of the Void Serpent, he and his team managed to take down the beast with minimal injuries, simply because he had clashed with it several years back.

This helped him make the battle easy for his team.

“I merely did my job as a warrior. Thankfully, it was enough to take back one of our lands from the beasts,” War God Liu Yang said.

He smiled slightly, casting his mind back to the days when he had to keep the Forbidden Zone in check to ensure there were no surprises.

He knew his job was doomed to fail at any moment. Damn, he was meant to prevent a Tier 11 beast from coming out. That alone told him he was standing on a landmine.

He could die any day.

But despite knowing that, he stood guard all these years. So he was happy and relieved to have finally taken back the zone. However, he is now hungry for more adventure.

Klaus could see the hunger in his eyes. He knew someone like him wouldn’t be okay with just a single mission.

“You can join us on our mission back in Monsterland. There are many opportunities there that—although they will soon become accessible to the rest of the world—getting early access will be great.”

Klaus’s blood resonated with him, so he had no plans of letting him go.

This mission had shown him that Earth indeed has a bigger backbone, and they were the warriors currently recovering.

There was no denying that he wouldn’t have been able to do any of this without a team. This alone fueled his determination to make them even stronger.

War God Liu Yang nodded at Klaus’s offer.

He most definitely wouldn’t want to hang up his weapon here. So, since there was a chance for him to keep growing, he would definitely accept it.

“Very well. We will leave in a week, so use this period to handle your business. When we leave, there will be no returning for a couple of months, perhaps even a year.”

War God Liu Yang nodded and left to handle his business.

Two days later, everyone recovered their strength, and all flesh wounds healed, thanks to Klaus’s constant help.

But since they are now healed, Klaus issued his next mission.

Klaus sent them back into the Forbidden Zone to see if they could find something valuable.

There were many valuable things in Forbidden Zones, and seeing as this was now an unoccupied Forbidden Zone—and a Tier 9 one at that—he couldn’t help but wish them luck.

He could have gone himself, but that would have defeated the purpose of making them feel like treasure hunters. He met Hanna in a forbidden zone. Back then, she was hunting treasures.

So he sent them in there to hunt treasure and perhaps relax before going back to the badlands.

So he knew Danny would be thrilled to use the time to recover mentally, considering he was on the team that faced the Mirror Drake.

The Mirror Drake, knowing Grand Elder Ylthia was a threat, had created four mirror reflections for Danny, Zayn, Vida, and Choi.

It was safe to say they’d gotten their asses handed to them. The Mirror Drake could create reflections of itself, and even after doing so, its rank only dropped to the seventh level of the Tier 10 Stage.

This made Danny and the rest of his teammates wish they’d never been born. So this was their chance to unwind.

But it wasn’t just Danny; almost all of them wanted to unwind before heading back. Physically, they were healed, but mentally, they still needed to come to terms with a few things.

The only ones who didn’t venture back into the Forbidden Zone were Nari, Queenie, and Queen Lunara. Even the Overlords and Grand Elders chose to search for treasures inside the zone for the time being.

Klaus, who had spent the past three days taking care of everyone, finally had a chance to rest and wait for their return.

Of course, while he was resting, the two Void Stage beings entered his fortress with no holy intentions.

They came there with a purpose, and looking at the two naked bodies standing before him, Klaus knew they’d arrived with exactly what he needed at the moment.
