Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Chapter 305: Strange Phenomenon

Chapter 305: Strange Phenomenon

After dealing with the blood orb, Miles fished out a couple of cores and an orb from his pocket. These were the cores he collected when the portal closed. The three bird heads got cut off, earned Miles an orb and two wind elemental cores. The other two didnt have cores in their heads and must have formed other types of cores.

The orb itself was too valuable for Miles.

Coin, charge it please, Miles asked and supplied energy. Golden electricity flowed from Coin and activated the orb. The melted liquid formed a wind elemental bow in his hand. The orbs tier was high-tier, Frenzy-Rank, so he could hardly activate it with his energy level, but it was damn too strong. Any arrow fired by an arrow, would fly at the speed of the wind, and be covered with its element.

It consumes too much energy while activating and firing. I can only use it when I sneak into my enemies. Miles thought to himself.

Makwa, these are for you, Miles said and threw the two cores to his pet lying at the side of the couch. Makwa looked at orbs with zeal and looked at Miles with an unsure expression.

I stole your food before, but now I have my own brand, I can earn big soon enough. Dont worry and enjoy. Miles said with laughter. He was indeed in a good mood. Four of the birds that stretched out their heads to bite him when he was trying to escape from the portal, were at the pinnacle-tier of Frenzy-Rank. Only one of them was in the high-tier. But a closing portal was still the sharpest blade. It cut off their heads there and then. Lucky for Miles, one of them still dropped an orb, although he could hardly charge and use it.

Lets test this baby. Miles walked to his training room with excitement and created an arrow. The invisible arrow nocked on the arrow, as he pulled the string. His muscles were able to carry a ton, but he could hardly draw the string. The half-drawn string was Miless limit, and he released the arrow. To his surprise, while the arrow was released, the wind elemental of the bow covered the invisible arrow and changed its color to light blue.

Oh, the bow is washing my energy with its own element? Miles looked at the bow in surprise.

That is strange. Miles tilted his head and called Alex.

Hey Alex, how are you doing? Miles asked over the call.

I am good. Was just talking with a few students, I might team up with them. Alex answered. I am on my way home. Let me come to your place, and we can talk.

Alright, I am waiting. Miles hung up the call and waited. After a while, Alex appeared.

What happened? Alex asked as Miles took him to the training room.

Do you have a Form-Rank bow or crossbow type of orb? Miles asked. Form-Rank orbs required energy to be activated, thus only one person could use them. That is why the orbs were too expensive because the one found the orbs would imprint with their energies and could only be used by that person. Even after the death of the person, it couldnt be used by anyone else.

Alex fished out an orb and melted in his hand.

High-tier? Miles asked, as he felt the power of the orb.

Yeah. Alex answered. He too had a couple of high-tier orbs with him when he first came, but the school confiscated anything higher than the students level to prevent them from using their money to bully others in the academy. Students could only bring 3 orbs with them and others were taken for the time being. Also, higher-tier orbs required a higher amount of energy, making it impossible for students to use them effectively. So those Alex had, he could hardly use them. But he was lucky to find this orb while he was hunting with the team who wanted to test him.

Yes, I lucked out on my trip, and found this bad boy. Alex smiled. Miles didnt dwell on it so Alex looked around. Any arrow?

Can you form one please? Miles asked.

Sure, as easy as breathing. Alex formed an arrow. He majored in Heart Branch. He could create arrows without even sweating. The body of the arrow was purple, and Miles could see sparks forming around the arrow. He pulled the string, but couldnt move it at all. Too tough!

After putting all his muscles he could hardly pull the string and fired the arrow. The arrow was a lot slower than Miless, but it still sped towards the target at high speed. Miles looked at the arrow with complete attention. The arrow never changed its color from the start, although wind surrounded it.

That is it. I doubt I can fire another one. Alex said as he changed it to the orb form once again.

Watch this, Miles said and created an arrow again. He pulled the string and fired the arrow. Same as before, the arrow changed its color mid-flight.

Alex quickly realized what was wrong, and held his chin in pondering. It is strange indeed.

I wanted to see if the bow changes your energy creations too, but it clearly does not. Miles said and gave his theory, I think because my energy is attributeless, wind energy can fill it.

Hmm. In an analogy, your energy weapons are empty containers, and wind energy is the liquid. When they cover your weapons, they fill the container first, then cover the body. But because my energy weapons -containers- are already full with my own element, they cannot be filled. Alex further improved the theory.

Yeah, something like this. Miles nodded his head. How was the meeting? Who are your new team members?

I decided to team with Maya and her team. I saw them in the quest center and we talked a bit.

Maya and her team required someone with lots of firepowers and wanted to meet with me. Today I met with the rest of the team, and they are pretty good. There are two mid-tiers in the team, and their teamwork is pretty solid. I feel good about it. Alex explained.

Miles was glad for Alex. He wasnt worried, as he knew Maya was a good person. When she tried to warn them, she did that out of her goodwill, so the team she was working with would be equally good. I am happy for you, Alex.

Thanks, Alex said and smiled mischievously. Have you heard of our new titles? Well, only yours is mighty enough to be mentioned though. He said and choked on his breath.

Fuck you too! Miles flashed a middle finger and walked away.

Dude, I was able to hear your moans from my mansion. Alex ran after him and asked, Was it that good?

Damn you, Val! Miles gnashed his teeth. Look, dont tell anyone but Val was betting with sophomores. And the bet was that she could do me. Val and I are close friends, we were just faking it.

Alex looked at Miles with a squint and his face indicated that he wasnt believing it, but he then sighed. Fine, fine. I was just happy for you, Battle Beast. Alex laughed and ran as Miles's kick was moving towards him at high speed.
