Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen-Chapter 146: Statue Hunting

"Destroy the forest and anything in your path," Lex barked as he started throwing his glowing fists around after wearing a pair of magical dark green gauntlets with golden and crystal blue designs--a Tier-3 weapon.

Others also started releasing various projectile skills of Flame, Water, Earth, and Wind as they destroyed the forest and started leveling it.

They followed the trio's aura while attacking them from afar, but their attacks had no reach on Erix, Rin, and Melissa, who ran away with golden wings and flew up.

"Damn it!!" Lex cursed and roared at them, feeling frustrated at his loss. 'Gentle Death, Marco, and others passed, but I am here...'

He remembered how he was just an inch away from getting a golden statue right before that damn Space Affinity user grabbed it.

'Damn him!'

"We have no choice but to wait for the twenty minutes."

"Yeah, fuck that bastard! I want to kill him!"

"Let's find him once we are out and kill those two! They are just fucking early Noble-order."

"That kid got lucky with Space Affinity, and that bitch with Shadow Affinity is also with him. Their mobility will be a pain in the butt."

The others behind Lex vexingly discussed and cursed as they lost their means to chase Erix and others. Having no choice, they planted their butts on the ground and sat down.

...

High in the sky was a colossal three-kilometer-wide glowing area encompassing one thousand kilometers of path going up in a 45-degree arc towards the sky, ending at the checkpoint gate.

But this vast race track of one thousand kilometers was wholly chaotic and filled with various random obstacles like monsters, magical phenomena attacks, space disturbance, constant scenery and landscape changes, and much more that would appear and vanish randomly.

None of them were directly life-threatening unless one lost focus and made a mistake. Still, the obstacles were highly annoying and troublesome, so wits were necessary to maneuver through them.

.

"We can't go there yet," Melissa said with narrowed eyes as she looked at the race track leading to the second checkpoint gate. "The members of Savage Maw House are no longer there since everyone except some lost means to fly.

"I can see seven members with golden wings who had destroyed statues standing guard. They'll attack anyone who tries to go towards the checkpoint gate."

"A total of 16 people passed, huh..." Rin muttered as she looked at the number of people who passed the second checkpoint.

"There should still be others maneuvering through the race track. These sixteen people who passed already are basically the most powerful ones and contenders for the first rank. That's why they crossed a thousand kilometers of troubles and obstacles this fast."

"Of course, we also won't have much trouble crossing that thousand-kilometer distance," Melissa added with a chuckle.

"Let's recover ourselves and prepare for the next hunt," Erix said with a grin. "Let's get at least five golden statues more."

"We can pass the race after that."

...

The trio stayed afloat and flew at various places before another ten minutes passed, and a batch of chaos monsters spawned.

[For the next twenty minutes, Chaos Monsters will spawn randomly around the participants at any time instead of random Noble-order monsters.]

"Time to collect chaos points," Melissa chuckled.

...

Melissa waved her hand, swiftly shooting out black wooden spears that pierced into four Chaos Monsters around her and killed them instantly.

Rin also killed all chaos monsters using her Katana and executing blade moves while dodging their attacks, killing all five within a minute.

On the other hand, Erix killed five chaos monsters that spawned around him with swift punches that the chaos monsters couldn't even see as they came from various angles out of nowhere around them while Erix leisurely flew a hundred meters away from them.

After another ten minutes passed, the trio killed several more chaos monsters that randomly spawned around them.

"Yes!" Rin cheered as the Blade Eater shone, oozing out a stronger aura.

"Volt Spire Lance digested?" Erix asked.

"Yep," Rin grinned as the Blade Eater shone briefly, changing shape as it became the Volt Spire Lance.

"Not bad, it's a powerful Lightning-type Legendary weapon," Melissa commented.

"Yep."

Rin swiftly stabbed it forward five times and made some action moves while flying around to get the hang of the lance.

"By the way, you can also connect to your lightning easily and pull it back," Melissa said with a wry smile. "Seeing as I've never seen you doing, you probably don't know."

"What?" Rin asked confusedly.

"Throw your weapon, and you can easily and swiftly recall it back as long as your weapon is Lightning Attribute and there's your lightning energy in it."

"I didn't know that," Rin muttered before she shot her Lance forward with full power. freёweɓnovel.com

*Zoooom!*

The lance broke the sound barrier and crossed a few kilometers before abruptly stopping with a slight drag as Rin used her connection with it and recalled it with her control.

The lance flew back, flying left and right while hurling back with Rin's control as her fingers moved.

"Nice," Rin smiled as she grabbed her Lance that flew back. "It's good to know I can do this."

"Get ready. The pillars of light will shoot up in a minute, and the restriction on flying and moving will also lift up," Erix informed as he looked at his wrist.

He had made a time watch with his metal control and mana. It was a 24-hour watch, so it added one second to the count every second according to the formation he made.

A minute soon passed, and pillars of light shot up in the sky.

Erix, Rin, and Melissa quickly glanced around to imprint the location of the pillars before they grabbed Erix's hands from each side.

"Let's go," Erix wrapped them in Space Matter before disappearing and arriving at the nearest Pillar of Light area.

At the same time, ten chaos monsters spawned around each participant when they neared the pillars of light! A sudden chaotic intervention.

"Erix, you find the statue. We'll handle the monsters," Rin said as she quickly released a slash arc with her lightning, killing a chaos monster with a skull head as it spawned right behind Erix.

"Leave it us," Melissa said as she created a wooden barricade around Erix after they descended five hundred meters away from the pillar of light.

'Let's start,' Erix spread his spirit senses while his eyes flickered silver as he started space mapping.
