Newbie’s Appearance (4)

Leslie, the brunette lady, had a bitter feeling in her heart.

Of course, she was not something like an “Apostle of Omphalos.”

She was simply an Earthling with more experience than the black-haired young man in front of her.

All the words like ‘mistakes’ or ‘additional rewards’ were just to create a plausible story.

‘Incomplete Blessing of Omphalos’ must be voluntarily accepted by someone for it to take effect.

Leslie presented the black crystal to Zhang Luxin.

“Please take it. It’s yours now.”

Zhang Luxin hesitated.

He avoided being caught due to the woman’s intervention.

But in such a critical situation, she appeared out of nowhere with perfect timing.

He inevitably and instinctively felt doubts.

Zhang Luxin squinted his eyes at her.

“Will everyone in the same situation as me get the same benefits?”

Leslie shrugged.

“No. This is only for you.”

She spoke in a subtle, soft, and sweet tone.

“You have been chosen.”

If Zhang Luxin was really just one of the billions of commoners on Earth like a grain of sand on the seashore, would he had been able to stand in that world?

“Do you think this opportunity is given to ordinary people?”

“Well, that’s…”

Zhang Luxin’s eyes wavered.

Leslie gloated deep in her heart.

She was convinced that the young man before her eyes would eventually accept her offer.

‘There is no choice, after all.’

She presented it as if he had other options, but he only had one correct answer in reality.

No one could deny the power in that situation.

‘Neither I nor everyone else.’

Despite her bitter feeling, Leslie still maintained a soft smile.

Eventually, Zhang Luxin came to a decision.

“I’ll accept it.”

The black crystal spontaneously floated into the air, flew to Zhang Luxin, and then settled lightly on his palm.

With a blank look on her face, Leslie bowed down politely.

“May the Lord Omphalos’s protection dwell on the chosen ones.”

She turned her back against him.

Black mist shot up and wrapped around Leslie’s whole body.

A cold smile crept up her lips.

‘I’m not lying. You were indeed chosen.’

Zhang Luxin was alone again.

He tilted his head, looking down at the black crystal in his hand.

“How do I even use this?”

The Guidelines answered.

[Holding the Incomplete Blessing of Omphalos, shout ‘United.’ That will cause you to accept the blessing.]

“Good!”

He immediately used the crystal.

“United!”

The moment he shouted, great darkness struck him.

At the same time, an eternal sense of uplift surged into his mind.

“This, this..!”

It was a terrifying power!

Overwhelming and absolute, he felt terrifying power that could make the whole world kneel!

With darkness enveloping his body, Jang Luxin burst into mania.

“Hahahahaha!”

As soon as he obtained the Alien’s blood, Ryu Han-bin immediately activated the Tracking function.

He searched for the Alien everywhere as he followed the direction the light stick pointed towards.

It had been almost 6 hours.

“We couldn’t find him in the end.”

Underneath the western city walls of Highten, Artis clicked his tongue.

He kept looking around in an attempt to find the Earthling, but he couldn’t find anyone that arose suspicion.

The Tracking function of the Guidelines was the same as the one that Spiritists had.

Both only gave an approximate direction of the target from the position of the user.

Effir shook her head.

“The problem is that the waiting time is too long.”

The Spiritist could use tracking skills frequently to adjust to the target’s direction as they kept moving.

Meanwhile, the Guideline’s Tracking function could only be used once every 6 hours.

“It won’t amount to anything if the other person moves while we’re tracking them.”

“Wait, I’ll be able to use the Tracking function again soon.”

Ryu Han-bin popped up the Guideline while kicking his tongue.

[Tracking reactivation time: 0 hours 3 minutes 31 seconds]

“There’s still 3 minutes left in the cooldown.”

“If we still can’t find them, do we wait for another 6 hours?”

Effir pouted her mouth.

Artis shook his head.

“That Tracking function is really inconvenient. How can we reduce its cooldown?”

Han-bin sighed deeply.

“I don’t think that’s possible.”

The party asked various questions in an attempt to find out the condition to reduce the cooldown of the Tracking function.

But the Guideline’s answer remained the same.

[Personfretalklonghike…….]

“All I get is an error, damn it.”

Even for the Suiters with the right Guidelines, there didn’t seem to be any other way.

“Even Alejandro– that South American guy said something similar.”

After tracking down the Han-bin group, he said something as soon as he saw Artis.

-I could barely follow after you. Why is the Tracking function so useless?

He wouldn’t have said that it was useless if he could use the Tracking function frequently like a high-level Spiritst.

It wouldn’t have taken days to track Artis.

“I don’t think the waiting time would be reduced even if my level rises.”

Three minutes had passed.

Ryu Han-bin activated the Tracking function again.

The stick of light stood tall and then quickly fell, pointing southeast.

Han-bin and his party were at the western wall of Highten City. They had to go to the southern wall.

Effir and Artis reasoned.

“It looks like he’s trying to get out from the south.”

“He would want to get out of this city, after all. If so, would he be heading towards the south gate?”

Han-bin beckoned to his party.

They had to catch up with the Earthling before it was too late.

“I can’t miss this chance. But do we have the chance to catch him?”

* * *

A Zhang Luxin ran through the pitch-black streets under the night.

He hid his face under a hood as he headed for Highten’s southern wall.

‘Once I leave this city.’

Until just a little while ago, there was no way to get out of Highten.

The city walls were too high for a level 21 swordsman to sneak over, and Latna’s Hunters and Mages guarded the gates.

But his situation had changed.

With the unique item that gave him superhuman power, he could easily jump over the wall!

‘With this power, I don’t even have to run away. I can defeat them all.’

Reminiscent of his new ability, Zhang Luxin laughed.

Just thinking about it, he felt pride filling his heart.

Nevertheless, he behaved carefully.

He had just fallen into the world.

Nothing was more important than making sense of his current situation first.

‘It would be stupid if I just raged around with pure strength.’

Even though he had just burst into mania, it was because he was so excited he did it without realizing it.

While he was running, a group of Hunters appeared across the road.

The Hunters found him first and had already alarmed others before Jang Luxin could hide.

“Oh!”

“It’s him!”

“It’s the Alien!”

Five Hunters surrounded him as they pulled out their weapons.

“How did you know who I was?”

Zhang Luxin was puzzled.

He covered his face well, and besides, he moved under a lot of darkness, yet they still recognized him right away from a distance.

Was that how good their eyesight was?

But all of them were Level 18 to Level 22.

It didn’t seem that they were capable of that.

The Hunters laughed.

“You stupid!”

“It’s obvious if you’re the only one covering your face at night!”

Zhang Luxin immediately realized his mistake.

‘No wonder everyone easily recognized me!’

It was neither raining nor sunny. It was suspicious to wear a hood outside.

‘From now on, I should walk around naturally without covering my face.’

The Level 22 Swordsman on the lead threatened him.

“We outnumber you! Surrender peacefully, Alien!”

Zhang Luxin laughed.

He would’ve surrendered if not for the crystal.

He would’ve had no chance to win against five people at the same level range as him.

But he was no longer the underdog.

Booong!

With a roar, his scimitar’s blade turned black.

The Hunters became confused as their faces stiffened.

“Huh?”

“He’s using a magic sword!”

“No one told us about that!”

Zhang Luxin surged forward.

A new human form flew several meters at once over the Hunters’ heads.

The hunter’s eyes widened.

He displayed a physical ability beyond the capacity of a level 21.

“Ugh!”

“What?”

As he moved, he activated a skill.

-Diagonal Slash!

An onyx glow flashed, followed by a pitch-black shockwave slithering through the ground.

Two Hunters fell as they vomited blood.

“Ugh!”

“Kugh…….”

He wasn’t done yet.

As he landed, he oscillated his sword.

-Continuous stab!

He then delivered the final blow.

-Wind Rush!

It was ordinary swordsmanship, but his power was beyond his normal capabilities.

The unique item gave Zhang Luxin ruthless power and speed.

Whenever the sword was swung, darkness rose and bounded the Hunters’ limbs.

He easily culled his opponents in a rooted state as he passed by, sending shocks into their bodies.

“Ahhhhhh!”

“Kuugh!”

The remaining three Hunters also fell screaming soon.

The fallen men looked up at Zhang Luxin, fear filling their eyes.

“What’s going on…”

“I heard he’s definitely Level 21…”

The Alien, covered in darkness, glared at the fallen hunters with eerie eyes.

“Huh! Did you just show off with that much power?”

The Hunters trembled under his shadow.

If it continued on like that, they would die at the hands of an Alien!

However, Zhang Luxin sheathed his scimitar.

“I won’t kill you. You should be grateful.”

The power gap was so severe that there was no need to kill them.

‘I am not a bloodthirsty killer.’

As he was about to step away and run towards the wall, Zhang Luxin had a thought.

‘Still, if I keep those guys alive, they’ll find out what I’m up to.’

If so, it wasn’t very smart to keep them alive.

He raised his weapon again.

The Hunters who were relieved to have survived suddenly became pale again.

“Ugh!”

“You said you wouldn’t kill…”

He ended five lives in one blow.

Blood pooled up on the street floor.

‘Done.’

Strange.

Despite saying he wasn’t a killer a little while ago, he quickly changed his attitude and murdered him without any pressure.

However, Zhang Luxin didn’t realize his change.

Before he knew it, he was rationalizing himself.

‘I’m not a killer, but I’m not soft enough to save those who fought to kill me.’

Believing that notion, he fled again, disappearing beyond the darkness.
