Vampire System- The Last Mystic Swordsman
Chapter 124 The Genderless Stalker

A new day began, and the grind continued.

[You have killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Illusion Monkey!]

[You have gained 3 mystic energy points!]

[You have killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Bloody-eyed Ape!]

[You have gained 4 mystic energy points!]

After Aragorn woke up from his slumber, he met Rex awake and they both discussed their next approach to their training in this forest.

After a few days of traveling through the Great Forest, they now arrived in a region that was dominated by primates of different types.

This time, they were not just killing, they were also now working on their cooperation in battle. During their little discussion, both of them agreed that it was paramount that they trained on increasing their cooperation in battle.

To survive the Gundam Shelter together, they had to understand both their strengths and weaknesses thoroughly and know how to fend for each other.

Today, the primates were the practice targets of the both of them once again. With Rex jumping in and fighting aggressively with his sword from the front, Aragorn's Blood Pistols constantly unleashed bullets in support.

Being a mystic mechanic, creating powerful machines that could be empowered by mystic energy to fight was the least of Aragorn's abilities.

Of course, he did not have the proficiency to create a masterpiece like his Monster Truck yet, the truck was a gift from his late master.

What he did know how to create though was a mech-space. Like space mystic abilities, mechanic mystic abilities could replicate some abilities related to space.

By pulling all his peak knowledge and experience, Aragorn's greatest creation was the mech-space whichwhich was extremely similar to a storage ring. Unlike a storage ring, the mech-space had the shape of a box.

Aragorn had more control over his mech-space box than casual mystic warriors had over their storage rings and this was a great boon.

He kept his Monster Truck and most of his other important mystic treasures inside the mech-space, he wielded only his Blood Pistols.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Aragorn and Rex were unrestrained as together, they killed their way deeper into the forest as they continued eating yards of space into the distance.

While cooperating, they broke individual records that they already set as their cooperation grew. This validated a saying in the mystic world that the addition of 2 mystic warriors in the right circumstances was greater than 3.

Of course, considering the powerful existences in this Great Forest, Rex and Aragorn dared not be too unbridled as they gave themselves boundaries.

These boundaries prevented them from ruffling the feathers of a Super or even a Myth grade mystic beast which would translate into suicide.

This way, they crossed a great distance till it was 4:00 in the evening and this was when they encountered a problem, the Red-butt Baboons!

[You have killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Red-butt Baboon!]

[You have gained 2 mystic energy points!]

[You have killed an Intermediate Mystic Beast: Red-butt Baboon!]

[You have gained 4 mystic energy points!]

The Red-butt Baboons were the lords of this primate ecosystem.

Having read of them and their notorious reputation back in Dragon Horn Village, Rex and Aragorn set out with the intention to boycott their territory, they never expected to still stumble into the path of these dangerous primates.

Their original reason to evade the Baboons was not because of fear but because they still wanted to get to the Duncan Shelter within a week.

Now that they already encountered the Baboons though, they were attracted. The Red-butt Baboons were powerful, almost as powerful as a pureblood beast like Grey and this presented them as the best training opponents.

Rex and Aragorn's eyes gleamed excitedly.

Their excitement was not due to the prospect of challenging the basic or intermediate mystic beasts, but the alpha Red-butt Baboon who had a high chance of being an Advanced mystic beast.

After Rex's stint in Dragon Horn Village, he grew so outrageously fast that he was now ahead of Aragorn already in terms of mystic energy limits.

Individually, it was still suicide going against an Advanced Mystic Beast but after becoming sworn brothers, they already tried it and they survived.

After the first try, they became addicted to it. At every opportunity, they jumped at it with gusto to test their mettle against a stronger beast.

This was not just to build their tenacity and willpower, but to also develop their mystic energy limits. Rex no longer had any missions here but no problem, missions were not the only way for him to increase his energy limits.

Once they made up their mind, they took action.

Rex whistled and a Dark Mist Spider immediately erupted from another part of the forest. Being tired of boredom already, Grey rushed out enthusiastically as he immediately engaged the Red-butt Baboons in action.

Almost immediately after Grey rushed out, he activated an ability as a cloud of darkness followed him which soon engulfed both Rex and Aragorn.

Instantly as he was covered by the darkness, Rex felt revitalized.

[You are under the cover of the Dark Mist!]

[50% suppression of powers by the sun has been offset!]

Rex grinned in the darkness. "Let's hunt an alpha!"

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Aragorn took the lead as he rushed out with both of his Blood Pistols unleashing bullets rapidly. Rex followed from behind and once he raised Berserker, a barrage of skills empowered by the domain and Blackfire mystic abilities followed.

[You have killed an Intermediate Mystic Beast: Red-butt Baboon!]

[You have gained…]

The Red-butt Baboons stood no chance before them, their main powers were their speed, their powerful arm strength for throwing dangerous tree branches at enemies, and their water control.

Unfortunately for them though, none of these advantages could take their 2 opponents down as Rex and Aragorn continued their rampage.

In just a few minutes, they killed so deep inside the territory of the Baboons that the atmosphere now reeked with the smell of Baboon blood.

"Aw!" "Aw!" "Uh!" "Uh!"

The next moment, as they expected, the angered alpha Baboon started shouting as the heavy effects of movement in the trees were detected.

On seeing these movements, instead of being afraid, Rex and Aragorn were thrilled as they got prepared for the inevitable clash excitedly.

While they got ready, they heard the genderless voice again.

"You don't want to square with the Alpha Baboon".

"Oh shit, the f*cker's here again, stop stalking us!"

"You'll regret not listening to me, the difference in strength in the Advanced realm is wider than what the both of you imagined".

"F*ck off!"

Aragorn barely said this before he paused as the massive trees of the forest started falling down. He and Rex paused as they looked up.

What they saw was no Baboon, instead, they saw what seemed like an apocalyptic monster shaped like a Baboon with a chest ripped and full of muscles. This monster was taller than both of them and heavier than them combined.

"Sh*t, retreat!"

It was already too late, the pureblood Purple-butt Baboon grabbed a tree and ripped it to shreds as it threw one of the branches at the 2 humans.

Aragorn was almost pinned but Rex jumped on the path of the tree branch as he was pinned to a tree like a criminal on a death sentence row.

"Ugh…, f*ck!"

Aragorn turned and without hesitation started unleashing Blood Shots, Grey fought like his life depended on it, and so did Rex and after 15 hectic minutes, they barely escaped with the skin of their teeth.

As they lay on the ground exhausted, Rex and Aragorn looked up to where the genderless stalker archer was still following them.

"Freak!"
