Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Chapter 358: Strange Doors

Chapter 358: Strange Doors

Miles looked at the hawks in trepidation as he held the orb. He didnt know if they would attack him or not, but his guts told him that they wouldnt so he didnt try to run away just yet. After looking at Miles for a minute, the leading hawk nodded its head and cried towards the sky. With it, other hawks also floated and left.

That was intense. Miles heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at the sky and grinned. I looked at your attack, Lady Hawk. I have another Wind Technique. The way the Hawks were using the wind element to sharpen their attacks was not as simple as coating their beaks and claws with energy. They were circulating energy such that it was getting sharper than a blade. Miles used the energy vision to see how they were using energy to manifest the technique and was yearning to try it.

Lets try this baby first, though. Miles smiled as he felt his energy. Have to rest first. Have almost no energy.

He stood up from where he was sitting and checked the other ants. There were a total of 21 underlings ants and 20 of them had differing tier cores and only one other had an orb. It was an armor orb as well, although the silhouette of the armor was a tad different than from the queens.

The queen can be biologically superior. Coin said as Miles was comparing the orbs.

Probably. Miles thought. Its deadly attack is unique, so the queen is probably a variation of the ant race.

Most likely.

After resting enough, Miles let his energy sip into the orb and it melted to cover his body. The armor looked dashing with its appearance alone. The helmet looked like the head of an angry beast. Although not as ugly as ants. It had two horns at the top and it was covering the whole face. There were holes at the side for the ears, and in front for the mouth, eyes, and nostrils. The body of the armor was dashing as well. The shoulders had three blades on each. On the chest, there were carvings that looked a lot like monster runes and at the calves, there were a pair of blades again.

Except for the color, it looks amazing. Miles lamented as he looked at the projection Coin was streaming. The armor was purple, which was kinda bummer. Have to find a psychic orb to create another maroon armor.

How will you do that? Coin asked as he strapped himself to Miless arm.

I have an idea, but I am not sure yet. Miles shook his head and looked at the other orb. This one is High-Tier. I might be able to sell it.

Isnt it dangerous? When you show up with the armor later, everyone will know it is you if you sell this one now. Coin asked.

This one here isnt the only ant armor in the academy, and its shape will change when I merge it with another orb, so it shouldn't be a problem. Anyway, for now, I will not use this orb. If I imprint it with my energy, I wont be able to sell it. Miles explained and looked at the hole at the bottom. Lets go to the ant nest and see what is in there.

Miles climbed down to the hole and looked far with dark vision. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing else but earth, so Miles started to walk towards the nest. There were tens of different tunnels going in every direction, so Miles had to check each and every one of them to make sure he didnt miss anything. Although most of them were just opened to the main tunnel, he was glad he checked them all.

After walking for 2 hours, he finally saw the giant opening and jumped off from the tunnel to what seemed like a giant cave. He looked around but failed to see anything but tens of small holes all around the cave. What really drew his attention though, was a pair of doors embedded in the cave wall at the other end. The markings on the door were nothing like he had seen before. The material the doors were made of also felt different. It was giving a weird feeling as if they were naturally formed.

Miles walked up to the doors and touched them. It wasnt feeling cold nor was it hot. It was as if they had no temperature. The smooth surface of the door was also quite weird. No flaw at all.

What is this? Miles questioned as he tried to see through it with x-ray vision but failed to see behind the wall. No surprise there.

Can it be something from the native race times? Coin asked.

Could be. Miles nodded as he pulled the door. But failed to open it despite using his full force. So hard!

He took a step back and gathered energy in his hand. His hand turned into a sword and he covered it with wind energy. The energy was moving restlessly, making the sword much more dangerous. It was the attack he learned from the hawks.

This technique is good. Miles smiled as he felt the sharpness of his arm. He dashed towards the door and slashed with everything he had. With a giant boom, the door quaked and stones started to fall from the ceiling, but the door stood strong no matter what he did.

How about this? Miles jammed his sword hand into the space between two doors and yanked with full power. To his surprise, the door opened and he fell back from the force. The hell? That was easy.

He jumped back on his feet and looked inside. He didnt know what he wanted to see, but inside was empty. There was only a flight of stairs going downward, but nothing else. Should I go?

He looked around and inside. But after seeing nothing weird, he walked in and started to walk down.
