Seconds passed, but no gunfire or crunching leaves sounded near me. I glanced around, looking for clues. I found none. I closed my eyes, listening and smelling the air. The slight scent of the aliens blood was nearby. Maybe the FearFighters hadnt betrayed me. Maybe the tribals found them first.
There was only one way to find out. I skulked towards the smell, opening my eyes and reac...

Yo guys, someone mentioned not getting added to the discord server. Apparently there's a problem with the software or something.
Any who, I'm posting this so that you guys can join the discord server whenever you want to. I try to be in there most of the time, but I may respond slowly or not at all if I'm writing. Just to keep myself focused on the scene and stuff, not to be snobby or any...

I pulled the person closer, glancing at her hand. A glowing dagger was there, with the air fizzling around it. She whipped it towards my neck, the air whistling as she did so. Off reflex, my armor shot out and pierced through her forearm.
The guards aimed their rifles at me, but I shot my armor out towards the barrels. My armor pierced the rifles, tearing them apart before the guards ran ...

Sensing my discomfort, Torix grinned with evil on his lips
at least to me it was evil.
Does the prospect of giving a speech seem so bad?
I rolled my eyes, Its not something Im used to. Id rather fight giant monsters. Im more in my element there.
Torix turned and walked towards the command center of the steel legion. I followed beside him as he entered lecture ...

Stillness crawled back across the town, like a looming shadow. The landscape froze in place once more. I sighed, relief pouring over me. I shook my head, making the worry slide off my shoulders. Living in Springfield was like living beside a volcano. You could never tell when it was going to erupt.
I needed to be ready for that eruption, so I grit my teeth and readied myself. I headed bac...

Finding the most productive way of spending my time, I set out to build the rest of Altheas rifle. Fortunately, the stock wouldnt be as difficult as the barrel to build. The barrel required tremendous precision. The stock of the gun required some, but not the laser like precision the barrel needed.
With that in mind, I reached the center of the Steel Legions encampment once more. Se...

At least by post-apocalyptic standards. It looked like shed borrowed a dress from Kessiah or Torix, considering the quality. It was stylish, fitted dress made of black fabric. A pretty normal garb though a slight split up the left leg and a split down the chest gave it an edgy vibe. It showed a little more skin than normal. She still had on a pair of leather shoes instead of heels. It made it...

I stomped the ground and activated oppression. High pitched screaming echoed out around me along with a hailstorm of hellfire. The trees wilted in seconds, turning to dust. The brushes and birds and bees disintegrated, exposure the to the aura killing them in an instant.
Amidst the rain of blue bullets, I noticed something odd. Oppression was different, not quite like before. Controlling ...

I clapped my hands together, Hell yeah. Its about time.
Torix nodded, Indeed it is. Youve progressed at a rapid pace for the most part
though considering your effervescent flow of mana and the kind of mana you wield; your progress is only slightly above average.
I shrugged, Eh, as long Im moving forward, thats what matters. No point in meaningless comparisons.

Kessiah blinked, Uh
You sure got up from that fast.
I nodded, I mean yeah, of course I did. Remember, my health regen is crazy high.
Torix tapped his chin, Its astonishing when seen in person, however. Its nothing like I imagined it. The process is much more
grotesque.
I shrugged, Better to be disgusting and alive then beautiful and dead, right?

I stomped my feet and charged forward. The ground ripped underfoot, but I kept steady with my telekinetic augments. Facing me with her side, Kessiah she shot forwards a simple jab with her left hand once I reached her.
I ducked sideways, out towards her left. If ducked towards her right, she could counter with her right hand and use my dodge against me. This also left her body exposed. Ta...

I dropped from the pillar before slamming into the ground. The echo rippled through the chamber, my feet digging into the stone. I glanced up,
What do you mean made you into what you are?
Altheas hands shook, like literal fear was crawling across her skin. It was like watching a war victim who couldnt handle the sound of gunshots. I walked towards her before raising my palms...

The sea of insects expanded, until all I could see was a wave of fluttering wings, eyes, and limbs. As they came closer, the bodies piled onto each other. A surge of them came crashing towards me, like the whole body of insects was a shifting liquid.
Before the wave of monsters hit me, I slammed my hand into the stone beneath me. Spikes from my armor ripped out of the brick ground, impali...

For starters, this won't be quite as in depth as Daniel's analysis, but I'll try to throw some light onto Torix's skillset.
Torix's General Layout
Torix has quite a an allotment of general skills. He is currently level 1265, and he was introduced at levele 1236. He gained the levels during his fights and by capturing experiments.
His general approach to leveli...

I pointed at the three named ones, So we kill them, go into the tunnel, clear out the eldritch, then escape before the rift closes?
Torix shook his head, Close, but you wont have to escape at the end. All that happens is the tunnel converts into a normal dungeon once the rift keeper is killed.
I sighed, What level should we be expecting from it then?
Nothing hi...

The sickle wielding guardian spoke with a steady voice,
Impressive.
I raised an eyebrow,
I thought these guys didnt have a conscious?
Kessiah shrugged, This isnt a normal guardian. Uh

Indeed Kessiah. Using my incredulous intellect, I infused the corpses of two dead...

Torix grabbed his chin, a serious look replacing them mania from earlier, Hmmm. Learning to master your mana would be the first step. After that, creating runes for it, considering how effective they are for stabilizing it.
He nodded, All that is requi...

My helm split, the jagged teeth of ruptured metal sharper than before. With a bite, I tore into the tentacle surrounding me. The monsters grip loosened, letting me shove my right hand into its eye. My whole hand pierced the clear lining that protected its eye. A forest of armor needles erupted from my arm, pinning me to the monsters eye.
The massive eyelids of the eye came crashing do...

I should have mentioned this last chapter, but he put all the leveling points from the dungeon cores into Boundless Storm. Sorry if this caused any confusion.
I mean that literally. Once I passed a bit deeper into the cave, the walls bent and turned wet. I glanced around, wondering where the snails met. A few more turns down the passage, I found my answer.

I exited the school before running towards the entrance of a sewer. Passing by the multicolored fauna, the ascendant mana flowed through my runes as I kept two stones afloat beside me. With every twisting curve of the sewer, I came closer towards the next dungeon.
A few minutes later, I reached it. I crawled up the metal stairs and pushed off the manhole cover with a reserved slowness. I ...

Before charging him, I opened my menu screen and poured all my points into constitution. My armor tightened around me before I balled myself up. I grit my teeth and tensed my entire body, turning myself into a ball of iron.
A few snaps of my armor occurred before I regenerated my armor back to normal. I stood tall before cracking my neck. The SoulSwallower grinned,

As I'm well aware, quite a few people are wondering what build Althea is using. It's seems mysterious, since she has a bunch of different stuff inherent to her. They mix together to form the cocktail that is her build. This will be a little segment to let you guys know what it is if you're curious. Also, this is effective up to chapter 46 since that is the time of my writing this. Hope you guys...

We left towards Torix, Kessiah bubbling with energy again. The talk cleared her mind, and that let her go back towards her usual self. That meant she woke up Althea with a bit more zeal than she needed too.
It was ok though. Althea frowned, grumpy during the mornings like usual as we headed out towards Torix's lair. The breeze was a pleasant cool, and the overcast sky bathed the ground in...
