Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Chapter 347: Mystic Orb

Fall back! Miles shouted and dashed to Vals side. He picked her up from the ground and started to run away. The little monsters were running in every direction to grab something alive.

Several of them got a hold of trees around. But most failed to find anything. They withered and died in no time.

Miles looked from afar and counted them. 23 managed to survive but 22 of them were attached to inanimate objects. The trees couldnt move even with those little creatures.

Where are they? Maya asked with visible terror in her eyes.

Most died because they failed to find a host. Miles said as he stopped. 22 attached themselves to trees, so they are easy to kill, but the last one. Miles sighed as he looked at the last creature.

What happened? Alex read the mood so knew something was wrong.

Everyperson. I guess he was following us. Miles said. The teen who was crying over his life earlier walked out of the trees and looked at them. Now, both his eye holes were void of eyes. In one of them, the little creature was looking at them in hatred.

Everyperson raised his arm and four ghosts appeared in thin air. One looked cute, one looked fat, one looked slim and the last one looked short. The four took the four sides of Miles and others and raised their hands at the same time.

The monster can use the abilities of creatures he possesses! Alex shouted in surprise.

Fucking ghosts! Maya also cried in fear.

Alex, you deal with the ghosts. Maya, look after Val, I will deal with the little creature. Miles said.

How about Everyperson? Alex asked.

He is already dead. Miles shook his head as he dashed forward with Frontal Rush. The monster or the body it possessed took a step back. In the next second, Everyperson phased out from existence. Of course, Miles could still see him with Elemental Vision, it was just an ability of Ghost Element.

Everyperson was very bad at his abilities, and the little creature was also a ghost elemental creature and thus could make the most use of Everypersons abilities. Everyperson wanted to sneak up on Miles. He also didnt let the creature know he could see it, so Miles acted like he couldnt. When it was only a step away from him, he struck with his claws. The creature was fast and shouted.

The shockwave offset the claws and put them in a stalemate. Miles used Frontal Rush and when he was behind the monster, he punched with everything he had.

Viscount Percivals Mountain Fist!

The electric blue covered his punch and mixed with the shining sun. The destructive punch arrived at Everypersons back and smashed its spine. The body fell to the ground without any counterattack but Miles knew the little creature could still live.

He circumvented the eye and cut the body into pieces. When the little creature was about to dash out, he created an area of lightning with his energy and trapped the little bastard inside. In no time at all, the creature withered and died.

Everyperson was too weak. Although he had a rare element, his body wasnt even at Grunt-Rank thus he couldnt threaten Miles despite the little fucker possessed him.

Miles, you did it! Alex and Maya with Val in her arms run to him. Ghosts disappeared.

Yeah, Miles said but he couldnt rejoice. He really didnt want to kill Everyperson, but he had no other choice.

It is not your fault. Alex patted his shoulder.

Yeah, I know. Miles thanked with a nod and took Val from Maya.

You need to burn down those trees, but start from the outside and walk deeper inside. Dont get close to the trees, and be careful of any hole you see on the trees. Miles instructed. Maya nodded and let a wisp of fire fly towards the closest tree.

I felt lightning, Alex said while they were watching the fire grow.

Ultimate and arrows. Miles pointed to the quiver on his back. Alex smelled the air and nodded. He knew Miless ultimate could attack back in any random element, thus thought it must be that.

Not long after Maya started, all the creatures died. When all did, one of them didnt vanish but turned into an orb. The orb was quite strange. It didnt have any color. This was Miles's first time seeing a colorless orb. If it wasnt for the cloudy sky inside of it, they wouldnt be able to see it.

On top of the cloudy sky, was an eye. It looked like an orb that would turn into a fake eye? Miles didnt know.

What the hell is this? Maya asked before he could. Alex grabbed the orb and sighed.

It is a Mystic Orb. He explained.

Charge it. Maya urged him but Alex shook his head. He threw the orb at Miles and said, Mystics orbs cannot be charged. No one can make use of them so far. You like to collect useless stuff, so you can keep it.

Thanks, I guess, Miles said as he gazed at the orb. He tried to charge it just in case but as Alex put it, it was a dead object. Even when he let all his energy inside, it was useless.
