The Soul System in the Apocalypse-Chapter 462: Losing Control

With the current ability of his mage profession, it was definitely impossible for it to be able to deal with the high level monsters available within this level of the dungeon.

But even then, there was one thing that Henry was completely exploiting during the time that he was here. That was him utilizing the mage profession, trying to immobilize the monsters within this dungeon, before killing them off using another skill of his.

With the current power level that he possessed, it was obvious that he could simply kill the monsters that were still within the diamond rank with a flick of his hand. But even then, he was not doing that, giving the mage profession a chance.

But even then, since the level of the mage profession was extremely low, it could not even have much of an impact on the monsters. The only effect that it had on them was to make them a little surprised considering that they realized that their movements were being restricted.

But even then, the monsters did not think much about it, and thought that it was just a trick that Henry was playing. For that reason, they immediately went ahead and attacked Henry, with the intention of destroying him. But the moment that they did that, they were immediately destroyed by Henry.

The good thing about what he was doing right now was the fact that since his mage profession was also involved in the killing of the monster, it was actually leveling up. Additionally, the speed at which it was leveling up was extremely high, enabling him to reach the silver rank in just a matter of killing two monsters.

With the improvement of the level of the mage profession, it was obvious that the contribution that it was giving was increasing, and so, the speed at which he was going to improve his level was also increasing.

One thing to note was the fact that, if two people killed a monster by cooperation, the person who landed the final punch on the monster would be the one that would receive all the benefits.

But if it was a person like Henry who possessed several professions, as long as all the professions were involved in the killing of the monster, each profession would receive its own share of energy that would enable it to level up.

That was just what Henry was exploiting right now. Otherwise, if it was not functioning this way, he would have definitely gone back to the low level of the dungeon in order to start rising from there.

Adam and the others did not know what Henry was doing. But even then, they realized that there was something different about the way that Henry was dealing with the monsters. Obviously, with the power level that he possessed, he did not even have to deal with such low level monsters, considering that he was already a rank higher than them.

But even then, they realized that the movements of the monsters that he was killing were actually being restricted, and as time went by, they realized that monsters were actually not capable of moving, and were completely helpless when Henry decided to kill them.

They did not know how Henry was doing it, but even then, they could not help but be amazed by the ability that he possessed. Of course, they thought that this was something that he had gained after reaching the platinum rank. They did not really doubt that he was actually the first person within the entire world to be able to reach the platinum rank.

The reason behind that was simply because they felt that there was something that was preventing them from breaching the next level the moment that they reached level 9 of the diamond rank.

They believed that there was definitely nobody else within this world that possessed the same abilities as the ones that Henry possessed, and therefore, it was impossible for them to be able to break through the threshold that was set for this stage of the apocalypse. It could be said that they possessed blind faith towards Henry.

After about 3 minutes, Henry had finally managed to reach the diamond rank in his mage profession. But even then, it was only in level 1 of the diamond rank. But still, Henry was not intending on continuing to level up the profession, considering that he had already detected that the situation that Diana and the others were experiencing right now was definitely not the best.

With a flicker of killing intent within his eyes, he looked towards Adam and said, "You guys can go ahead and proceed to the next level of the dungeon so that you can continue leveling up. I will inform the others to join you soon, but I will be out for now in order to deal with a little problem out there."

Of course, he was not only referring to Adam and Angela, but instead, it also applied to Dylan and Rachel. The two of them would definitely be the ones that would increase the level of his summoner profession.

If time allowed, he would have really wanted to go ahead and carry out the 6th summon. But due to the danger that Diana and the others were currently in, it was definitely impossible for him to do that for now.

Otherwise, he would have definitely done that, making sure that he utilized the dungeon to the maximum limit possible. After all, with the high level of the dungeon being in the platinum rank, it definitely allowed them to be able to rise within the platinum rank, before others thought of reaching the platinum rank.

The moment that he finished saying those words, he did not give Adam and the others a chance of asking him what was going on, before he vanished from his position. It was obvious that he had utilized the feature of the Lord of the territory in order to go directly to Crystal city.

...

Back in Crystal city, a few moments back...

The merman was just about to go ahead and start dealing with Diana and the others who were currently on the ground without the ability to move when suddenly, something that he was not expecting happened.

He was suddenly enveloped in a red light, and before he could understand what was going on, he suddenly felt his strength being increased. At that moment, he moved by a single level in terms of his power level.

Something like this was supposed to make him happy about it, considering that his strength had increased. But even then, there was a frown on his face. At the same time, several thoughts appeared in his mind as he tried to contemplate on what was going on.

’Could it be that father has hidden information about what is really happening in the apocalypse from me? He was the one that received the most information during the time that we were being brought into this world. But why is it that he is hiding a piece of information like this from me?’

’According to the information that I have, something like this was never supposed to happen. But now, it has happened.’ The merman continued thinking as he looked towards the wave that was still outside of the territory without moving.

Within that wave, he could detect that the sea monsters were actually having an increase in their strength as well, and just like himself, they had an improvement by a single level.

Of course, it was not impossible for him to guess that even his family members were experiencing the same thing. Since that was the case, there was definitely no advantage that he was gaining back at home considering that everybody was getting stronger.

The first thing that he had not expected was the fact that he was going to be brought over in order to deal with the humans, something that he was not informed about. And then again, another thing that he had not expected was happening after encountering humans that were stronger than he had expected according to the level of the apocalypse.

The thing that he hated the most was to have no control of anything that was happening in his surroundings. That was the thing that made him completely uncomfortable back at home.

And now, he was no longer at home where his siblings were stronger than himself, but instead, he was in the human world, where weaklings were supposed to be. But even then, even though it might be true that the humans were not the ones that were doing the unexpected, but even then, it must be related to them considering that this was their world.

Deciding that he was going to leave that matter aside for now, and deal with it after he went back and met with his father, he decided to deal with the humans here first.

But of course, he had already changed what he had planned to do. Instead of punishing them, making them suffer, he decided to get rid of them as soon as possible, so that he could go back and get answers to what was troubling him.

He raised his hand, and immediately, water began appearing within his hand. The moment that Olivia saw that scene, she could not help but be surprised considering that she noticed that the water was actually being formed from the surroundings, and not from the energy that he possessed.

There was only a single explanation that appeared in her mind. This merman actually possessed water manipulation, something that was extremely overpowered if mastered well. And looking at how he was handling the situation, it was clear that he was very skilled in the water manipulation.
