Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Chapter 779 Intelligent Monsters

?

There were no academies in this world, only towns and cities ruled over by different clans.

Her clan lived in a big town, alongside five more other clans. Her clan was called the Red Horn clan. According to her, the Red Horn clan was the biggest clan in the town, ruling it and that was why the town was named after her clan.

William didn't care about the clan or the town, but he was more interested in the spirit masters and resources of this world.

He knew this world wasn't going to end, at least not anytime soon. And it got a link with their world. If he could build a base here, he could prepare a safe haven, an escape from the impending crisis if he couldn't stop it.

Besides, this world had a high concentration of spirit power. Not to mention when he and others came here through the portals on the backs of the flying monsters, they didn't suffer any backlash or anything.

They kept their current spirit power grade intact, and only suffered from their inability to absorb the spirit power. That meant if he managed to establish a stable portal here, using an interworld portal or something similar, he'd be able to move his guild and allies here without an issue.

After days they finally reached the Grand Plains, where he found himself in front of an endless open space, with lots of trees and grass, plants of different colours, shapes, and sizes. In addition to that, he finally spotted monsters.

"I want to stretch out a little bit," he wanted to test this world's monsters' cores. And so, he threw such a random excuse, activated his spirit body, and ran towards the thickest number of monsters.

They were like bulls with horns, fur that was made out of fine black needles, and three tails. They weren't that huge, but the smallest one was at least two metres in length, and the biggest was close to six.

William ran without even waiting for Angelica's response, using his dash technique to distance himself from her. At the same time, he took out his weapons, and headed like a sent bullet towards these monsters.

They were resting under a large number of trees, shielding them from the heat and sun. there were at least hundreds of them when William started to move out. But when he got closer after crossing five kilometres, he realised this was just the tip of the iceberg.

A grand number of the same monsters spread over the horizon, taking shields of the densely packed trees. As the trees weren't close to each other, William got tricked by their grand number.

"If the cores have an effect on me, then I won't hesitate to massacre all of them," William knew the monsters had a scary number, but they weren't gathered together.

The distance between each group of monsters ranged between a few hundreds of metres up to even kilometres! And each group was formed of a few hundreds, one thousand at most.

William knew by his appearance, few groups might get attracted to here, but not all of the grand army of monsters. And so, he approached with confidence, not stacking his attacks like he used to do.

He didn't want to attract many monsters at first, not until he'd tasted their cores.

*Roar!*

Against what he used to, when he approached, the monsters lying under the thick bunch of trees turned to him and roared in warning. This was quite new, as he used to have monsters leaving anything behind and come to take a bit off him.

As he was puzzled by this weird behaviour, he heard the scared shouts from Angelica from far behind.

"Don't attack them, they are quite intelligent and at least at the silver grade. They aren't easy to handle, and can use arrays and formations to attac…"

*Boom!*

Just before she'd continue her words, William dashed with all his might after gulping an elixir bottle. When he landed, his sword hit one of these monsters, releasing fierce sparks of flares that looked like a fountain of fire.

"... And they have extreme defences… Dammit!" he heard Angelica's cursing from behind, and yet that was the least of his worries.

The monsters once he landed over them started to stand up. They acted in slow motion, as if they were quite too lazy to handle him or something, as if they didn't place him in their eyes.

Not all of them stood up, only a group of fifty did. And as they stood up, he distanced himself away, starting to act more serious.

"Retreat! They won't chase you if you leave their terrain."

"I won't," William bellowed back, while taking even his one hundred flying weapons, "I wasn't fighting with my full strength before. But now, let's see how their defences can stop me!"

William started to store up his attacks up to twenty-five. He wanted to stack them to fifty, but he was forced to unleash them thanks to the combined attack of the monsters.

It was like what Angelica said. These monsters could use some sort of an array or a small formation. They were intelligent indeed, and once the fifty monsters stood up, they started to stand each in a specific location as if they grew used to this for a long time.

William saw them take spots to form five curves interacting with each other. It was a simple and yet brand-new formation to him. And once they stood there, they started to control spirit power from the air.

William saw Angelica, her masters, and Edward's fight before and knew how they gathered up spirit power in small balls and reshaped them. Yet the monsters gathered a huge amount of spirit power, pale gold and red in colour, surrounding them and taking the shape of the small formation.

Once the spirit power gathered up in such a way, it floated over their heads and started to grow berserk. They released sparks of golden and red fire, soon turning into short tongues of lightning like fire.
