Armipotent
chapter-1122

Tang Shaoyang knew what Lulu talked about. The natives of the tower were the people that got punished by the System for doing something taboo. That was what he knew after going through the first ten floors. Those people were limited in resources, meaning their growth of power was limited to a certain extent.

"The difference is, the natives on this floor and above have a higher limit. Since we can find monsters in Epic Rank, Ancient Rank, and even Myth Rank on this floor, the natives also could achieve similar ranks. That only applies to the natives who break the chain, but…." Lulu glanced at Areth, "Most natives fail to break the chain, and the village we stay at is one of the examples."

Tang Shaoyang did not know if he could trust whatever Lulu told them. However, if it was the truth, Foggy Mountain should pose no threat to him.

"We will soon find out."

He signaled to the others to follow him, leading the group into the fog. The fog obstructed his vision for a moment before it got cleared out. Beyond the fog was not that much different than outside. It was the same forest as the outside, the area with populous trees. The interesting part was the pathway in front of them. Three pathways led in three different directions. It proved a point that this place might be the natives' home.

"What do you want to do with the natives?" Rosalie asked. She assumed Lulu told the truth based on the pathway and wanted to know his intention before meeting the natives.

Tang Shaoyang opened his mouth, about to give her an answer, but he heard something whistling in the air. His sharp hearing could tell that an arrow was coming for them. Fortunately, the fog only acted as a barrier between the mountain and the outside area. There was no fog when they were inside, and his Spirit Eyes worked inside. He noticed the arrow coming for Zowen.

He caught the arrow midair before it could hit Zowen, and his eyes tried to find where the arrow came from. Before he could find who shot the area, he heard a sound from the arrow in his hand. Glancing toward the arrow, he noticed a hidden mechanism at the arrow opening. The green gas came out from the back of the arrow, and Tang Shaoyang used his Chaos Fire to burn the arrow and the gas.

"I want to say our actions depend on the native. If they attack us, then there's no reason for us to hold back." Tang Shaoyang took out [Mzed], and at the same time, he activated Spirit Integration with Karan. His skin turned red as his body grew taller.

"We got the answer now. We will kill them all since they want to kill us."

There was no hesitation in his action as he raised his right foot and stomped the ground, activating [Earth Split]. The ground shook and split up, heading toward the peak.

"You two stay with the girls!" Tang Shaoyang ordered Wrath and Greed. Both were stronger than Rosalie and Zowen, for sure, so he told them to stay with the girls to protect them. He did not wait for a response as he leaped up into the air. His right foot glowed in red once more, and another [Earth Split] was activated. As soon as he landed on the ground, the ground cracked, forming a giant crack up to the peak.

Barrages of arrows came for him, but it was blocked with [Mana Shroud]. The arrows were not enough to break his defensive skill. But the arrow was not just a normal arrow. As it fell down after getting reflected by Mana Shroud. The arrows lit up in red and exploded.

Boom!

The explosion engulfed Tang Shaoyang. Zowen and Rosalie watched the explosion with no worries. Lulu's spell failed to hurt Tang Shaoyang so that normal explosion would not be able to hurt Tang Shaoyang.

Sure enough, with a single swing of his battle-ax, Tang Shaoyang cleared out the explosion. He was not hurt, standing in the same spot. He put the battle-ax on the ground, and two axes formed in both his hands. The axes were made of fire and storm. He then threw the axes toward where the arrow came from.

The axes spun in the air, going through the trees, and exploded. Fire and storm engulfed the area where the axes landed as screams rang in the air. While the axes did not directly hit the target, the fire and storm reached whoever shot the arrows.

Using his movement skill, Volant Step. Tang Shaoyang rushed to the peak, ignoring all the attacks toward him. It was more like the arrow could not hit him with his current speed. Arriving at the flat area on the peak, he saw a big cavern. He could tell it was not a natural-formed cavern because of the decoration at the entrance. The cavern's entrance was decorated similarly to a gate, and he found the native in this mountain.

Six armored individuals guarded the entrance, and six of them were short. So short, below his waist. They were short with thick beards and crossbows on their right hands. That was right; these people were dwarves. He had dwarves under his banner, so he was not surprised to see them.

The six guards took two steps backward, placing their backs on the wall while aiming the crossbow toward Tang Shaoyang, "Don't come closer! Or we will shoot!" They threatened Tang Shaoyang with their fearful tone, making it not threatening at all.

"Dwarves?" Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow. The fact they were dwarves made him hesitate to kill them. It was because he had dwarves' subordinates, and for some reason, he regarded all the dwarves as his subordinates.

He used [Detection] on the six guards and discovered the highest level among the six was level 876. Not even one Epic Rank. There was no real benefit in killing them. He thought they would be similar to the Less Kraken, where the lowest rank would be Epic Rank. Or he hoped at least many of them were Epic Rank, but he was wrong. They were far weaker than the Krakens for sure, but they must be strong natives compared to the other natives.

"But it does not change the fact that they try to kill me…." Tang Shaoyang muttered before coming to a decision, "I will give you two choices! Be my slaves or be killed!"
