I Become Master of Danger Zones as Incubus With Mastery In Genetic

Chapter 110: Battle In the Dark Forest

After a rather indulgent night, Alros prepared himself for the toughest battle yet. While other sections is troublesome, it could not compare to the danger of the South Section, which border the core of the Forest of Bug.

No doubt, the nastiest monsters of the inner part could be found there, and it would not be easy to grab any. After all, he had seen some huge bugs at night, which come from the core to the South Section, which show how dangerous the section really is.

However, he need to hunt there. After all, if he could not handle the South Section, how can he hope to explore the core? After all, before he left the Forest of Bug, he would prefer to at least have some information of a part of the core, even if it's just at the border.

"Dark Forest, truly an adept name, though Dead Forest should be better," the incubus mused, looking at the dead trees that formed the part of the forest.

Alros did not know the reason for the trees being dead. Was it because of the bugs in the area, or is it because of something else? Whatever it is, he would not try to find it out, as he had better things to do.

First, grabbing Mana-Draining Tick. Those monsters are the easiest as aside from being small, well, small compared to the other bugs in the area that is. They did not have any other abilities, aside from maybe some basic magic that cause their presence to be erased, making other bugs get close to them without being noticed.

He can easily find it, and his goblins can easily catch them as they don't have any other defensive abilities, aside from mana-draining, which can be done through their skin so it would be some trouble though not an issue.

And while the first priority in the Dark Forest is easy enough, the same could not be said with the other two.

"Grargh, wrargh!" Gobruk yelled out a series of order as he observe the surrounding. They had just found one the monsters Master wished to procure, and Gobruk would do as he said. Unfortunately, the monsters in question is fast and deadly, the two worst combination.

The monsters are fast enough it could bypass the holes in their defense, and it deadly enough a single strike could put one into a state of lethargy, making the victim tired for no reason.

And while the monsters usually lived alone, for some reason, there are 20 attacking him and his group at the same time. He had with him 100 goblins, along with 50 combat clones, but already, 20 had fallen victim to the monsters.

Thankfully, the heavy hitters, the hobgoblins, able to stop them, the large shield in their possession able to block any charged attack of the monsters, though they are unable to do anything after that.

Gobruk growled before he could feel one of the Phantom Wasp landed on his shoulder. While the Master is the only person that could see what the Phantom Wasp saw, Gobruk has an ability bestowed by the master to do it as well, though it only work in the form of transferring memories.

It is not as good as it could have been, but at the very least, it is useful. Gobruk could see the wasps forming up. As the goblins formed a protective circle around him, the leader of the goblin began to analyse the memory, something he could only do due to the increase of intelligence, another thing bestowed by the Master.

Soon, he come up with a plan, a costly one but in the end, the cost is not that much for the Master.

The combat slaves began to leave the protection of the others, showing themselves as the walked away, acting as a bait. And while monsters do possess some intelligence, even the bestial one, in the end, they mostly do things by instinct, and when a prey showed its vulnerabilities, it would strike.

A Giant Earth Wasp leaped towards one of the combat slave before cutting him up. The man began to run, but it clearly weakened by it. The same fate was suffered by the rest of the clones, with the goblins did not make any move to save them.

Realizing the jackpot, the Giant Earth Wasp quickly grabbed a combat slave, intend to bring them to their nest. As the slaves was dragged to their doom, the goblims did not make any move, just watching the wasps, observing them intently.

As the wasps reached their nest, they might be working together at the moment but in the end, they are solitary predator, they quickly put the dead bodies of the slaves to their young, who began to feast on the corpse.

As they put the food for the young, they did not realize the goblins behind them, who quickly throw a net and used their weight to make sure they would not be able to move.

The sudden attack caught the wasps off guard, causing them to screech yet unable to do anything else as they are in the mercy of the goblins. As the goblins restrained the wasps, the contingent of Mist Spider began to tied them up, making sure they would not be able to break free from the restraint before the Master arrive.

Gobruk watched as wasps was dragged as he let off his version of a laugh. His plan to use the clones as bait, before having several goblins that carried the Illusion Butterfly to follow the wasps is a huge success.

And while he could not order it like his Master could, his Master gave him an authority, allowing him to order the monsters that is not goblins. With it, it make things much easier.

As he looked at the captured wasps, including the young, he counted about 50 or so. His Master want 200, and though it would be hard to accomplish, he would make sure his Master order is done.

"Wonder how Gobruk is doing? What do you think, Fen, do you think he would do fine?" Alros asked the Greater Demonic Wolf, the leader of the wolf pack, Fenris, named after the monstrous wolf of the Norse Mythology.

The wolf merely rubbed his head on his hand, causing a wry smile to form on the demon's face.

"Looks like you did not have an answer. Oh well, with the resources I gave him, at the very least, he could capture around 100," he said before looking at his side. The monsters under him is busy capturing the Golden Zapping Beetle.

The beetles are mostly sap eater, and their paralyzing ability is to stop predator from eating them. However, such simple defensive mechanism did not work, as Alros had his force to used nets to capture them, gathering them until the number of Golden Zapping Beetle reached 200.
