BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1210 Andure Vale
"You should do less of this kind of thing, or else you will not get any girlfriend. I am worried for your future," Tang Shaoyang said. It was disturbing even for him, and he could not imagine if there were any girls wanted with him if Lu An went further into this path.
Lu An smiled, "Don\'t worry about it, Brother. I already have a girlfriend, and she seems not to mind with the art of torture I have learned."
The answer was a surprise, "You have a girlfriend?" He never heard anything about Lu An having a girlfriend before. Mostly because he rarely stayed in the empire, but it was still a surprise for him to not know the news, "Who?" He was curious about his girlfriend.
"You know her, but I will not say her name. I will introduce her once we return," Lu An wanted that to remain as a surprise.
Tang Shaoyang did not further question the young man if that was the case. Both headed out to meet Rosalie who was actually not that far from the area, "Did he speak?" Rosalie asked, looking past them. The man had become a corpse as Lu An promised to give the man a painless death after answering all the questions.
"Of course, he speaks as long as I am here," Lu An tapped his chest, proud that he had done, "It\'s the same with the eleventh floor. We need to kill the boss floor to get to the fourteenth floor. We have acquired the location, however, people guarding the gate to the boss floor could be a problem."
"I see," Rosalie nodded, not willing to ask further what Lu An did to the man after hearing the scream, "Are those groups strong enough to be a problem?" It sounded arrogant, but that was just her genuine question. After what they had encountered on the twelfth floor, the natives were weaker compared to the monster. Even the native with the same rank was much weaker in Rosalie\'s opinion. She fought someone named The Myth Rank Demon, and she killed the demon easily. It was as if she fought an Epic Rank or at best a player that just reached Ancient Rank.
Lu An shrugged, "Don\'t know. This is the thirteenth floor, which might be a little bit different than the twelfth floor. Never underestimate your enemy and how weak they are. That\'s what Sir Zaneos always told me before we start the lesson,"
Rosalie shook his head with a smile. That was what Zaneos would say indeed, "What about the monster? Is there any place we can go to hunt to level up?" That was their second goal, questioning an area where the monster resides. They could go directly to the fourteenth floor, but that would defeat their purpose of climbing up the tower. They went to a higher floor to find a stronger monster to level up.
"There is a place like that, there are three of them. I need to find someone to be our guide though. Please wait for me. I will get someone from the settlement to guide us," Lu An disappeared into the shadows.
The man told Lu An and Tang Shaoyang the direction and also the name of the location, but it would be more convenient if someone guided them. That was why Lu an went to the settlement to get a guide, or maybe the right word would be kidnapping the guide.
"You have to remove him from your intelligence division if you want him not to go down that path," Rosalie said as soon as Lu An left for the settlement. It was not that he did not want Lu An to lose his authority, the young man grew in a weird direction. Despite how young he was, it was not normal to enjoy the torture.
Tang Shaoyang let out a sigh, shaking his head, "I can\'t do that. You know too that he did it for me. He learned it not because he wanted to but because he did it for me. If I remove him from his position, he might think he has failed me and might go in another extreme direction. What he needs is attention, he needs to know that he has done more than a good job doing his work."
"I don\'t think you will have that much time when the people from your world might be the cause of your downfall," Rosalie had learned about the situation. The condition got no better each time passed. It got worse and worse. Now there was a high chance that The Divine Church would learn the Earth was not united as the other worlds. They would use this to their advantage, or maybe invade the Earth for their interest.
The world that could create a strong individual like Tang Shaoyang was what they sought. They would want that for themselves, especially when The Earth was not fully matured compared to the world where the other factions came from who had conquered more than one world.
"I have returned…" Lu An returned with a man on his right, slowing down his pace upon noticing the serious atmosphere between the two, "Did you have a fight?" He could not but ask, "Do you want me to give you some space, Brother?"
Tang Shaoyang rolled his eyes at how Lu An easily misunderstood the situation, "We don\'t have time for that space. Let\'s move to the closest area which is Andure Vale." He stared at the man in Lu An\'s hand. The man was level 817, weak but he was the elite from the settlement from what he heard from Lu An.
"Did you hear him? Lead us to the Andure Vale."
The man looked frightened and nodded his head furiously upon hearing Lu An\'s voice. The man seemed to be terrified of the young Lu An. He went on his feet and led the way, Andure Vale.
From the man they interrogated, Andure Vale was the home for the nocturnal creature, Lycanthrope. They formed tribes between themselves, fought each other, and hunted for humans at night. That was the reason why there was no beast or monster around. Because they were in the hunting range for the Lycanthrope.
The half-human and half-wolf creatures had dominated the area. The reason these people were still alive and could establish the settlement in their hunting range was because there was another species that kept a check on Lycanthrope, Werewolf. Both were creatures related to a wolf, but there was a slight difference between both creatures. Werewolf dominated with their wolf bloodline while Lycanthropes dominated with their humanoid appearance. Both had a humanoid body, but the Werewolf body was covered with fur while Lycanthrope had the body of a human with dark skin. Even though both had the same head, the wolf head, they were mortal enemies. At least, that was what the man told Lu An and Tang Shaoyang.
The guide\'s body shook all the time. He kept looking back, the fear and hesitation were obvious on his face. However, the man did not dare to voice his hesitation.
"Speak! What do you know about Lycanthrope?" Tang Shaoyang asked the man. He wanted more details about the creature.
"They are monsters. Feasting on human\'s organs and brains, hunting at night, and also the monster that ruled the vast Black Land," The guide replied with his shaky voice, "We should not come near their home, or they will hunt us down. It\'s almost night."
