Primordial Expanse: I have the Strongest Talent!

Chapter 322: Mira (1)

Margit wanted to congratulate Alex on his rank up to C tier, but by the time he had shifted his focus away from the commander's corpse to talk to him, he was already gone.

"Where did he go?" He asked one of the soldiers on the battlefield.

"He left as soon as the Red Demon commander was killed, sir." The soldier answered promptly, still with an excited and triumphant look on his face.

It wasn't just Alex and Margit that realised the war in Shen Wu system was practically over with the commander's death, but the soldiers on the battlefield below as well.

In fact, they had already taken to slaughtering the other Red Demon soldiers who were bold enough to still be present.

'I wonder where Alex could have gone…'

Margit was a little confused by Alex's sudden departure, but he just passed it off as he could talk about it with him later.

But he also saw Alex's departure as him giving Margit free reign over the loot from the commander's corpse, which he was very, very thankful for.

While Margit had already long reached 100% progress through C+ rank, it still didn't hurt to add another soul core to his name.

They were very valuable, especially ones at the rank of the Red Demon commander's, and he could trade it for something equally as precious in the federation later on.

Something that could actually benefit him.

But while he thought he would be able to ask Alex his questions after the celebrations were over and they all returned to base, he would realise later on that he never would have gotten that chance.

Now that the war in the Shen Wu system was practically guaranteed to be over, Alex didn't plan on sticking around much longer.

His presence there was no longer required, and other star systems that weren't faring as well as the Shen Wu system would benefit from his presence much more.

In fact, Alex was already in his ship, on the way out of the Shen Wu system before Margit had even begun looting the soul core from the Red Demon commander's body.

'How the hell did I end up in the Primordial Expanse??'

Mira was having her own sort of tricky situation in her own part of the war.

It had been a few days since she realised she had somehow been transported to the Primordial Expanse, but she still had no clue how that could have happened at all.

The worst thing was, she would only be able to leave it when she ranked up, and considering she was at D+ rank, that meant she had to go up a whole tier to C tier just to achieve that!

This left her in quite a tricky spot, as her rank up requirements weren't very forgiving for her situation…

She had already achieved the requirement of having basic control over an element, thanks to her superior spatial affinity, making it much easier for her to control her space element.

But the second requirement was what left her a little stumped about what to do.

[Requirements to reach C tier: Basic control over at least 1 element (Complete), Kill 10 Variant class beings of the same rank as you, or 5 Variant class beings above your own rank. (1/10) or (1/5) ]

'How the fuck am I supposed to find so many Variant class beasts in this barren place!?'

If she wanted to even leave the Primordial Expanse, she needed to fulfil these requirements and rank up.

The major problem though was the fact that the place she was dropped into was just so empty…

Over the past week, she had only encountered one beast, which she was lucky enough to survive against.

Though, she was happy that the one beast she had encountered was a Variant class beast that met her requirements, but that luck had very quickly died down.

The reality hit her quickly, that she would have to go through such tricky and dangerous fights at least 4 more times if she wanted to leave this place.

The only upside was the Variant class soul core that she had luckily obtained from the beast she had killed.

With that soul core, she was brought up to 95% progress towards Variant class. If she just obtained one more soul core of the same class and rank, then she would reach Variant class before she even reaches C tier!

That was a feat almost nobody in the entire federation can say they had achieved, which made her proud just thinking about it.

But that didn't really matter if she couldn't find a way out of this place.

'Since I was thrown in here against my will, surely there is some way to get out without having to fulfil those stingy requirements?'

Thinking logically, Mira had guessed that there must be some way out of this place, probably the same way she came in.

But the problem was that she didn't know where, or how she had even entered.

The window to her jump pod had gone completely black the split second before she touched down, so she couldn't even see what was happening outside before she was thrust into this place.

And since this was the Primordial Expanse, where all technology from the real world doesn't work, she couldn't even check the logs on her jump pod.

It was all just so fucked up for her.

'There was that one Floodgate on Eldaris that we were warned about, could I have entered through there?'

'But how would I have done that though, it's very well documented that all Floodgates are only one way, so the beasts on the other side can only enter our world but we can't use it to enter the Primordial Expanse.'

'Unless the Red Demons have something to do with this…'

Regardless of what she thought, Mira had to make a plan.

'Even if it was something to do with the Floodgate, that helps with nothing at all. The best I could do is hope that the entrance to the Floodgate in the Primordial Expanse is nearby, maybe that way I could leave.'

'But I bet there's a fat chance of that being the case.'
