War of the Gods and Demons: Chapter 1

…

"The young lady was heavily wounded… So, our priority is to save her… I will be going first. No matter what happened you three should take care of the artifact and retrieve it at any cost…" the A-Rank young man gave his instructions to the three.

"Master Vale… the artifact… Will, it really gives us a chance to… return to the other side of the planet?" asked one of the B-Ranks.

The information about the planet having two sides is only known to the A-Rank and B-Rank individuals. Most A-Ranks knew of this and only a few B-Ranks have this information. But such information is only possible because the A-Rank awakened has already regained a part of their memory as a Shen.

"I think so… I heard that after the artifact was created, Doctor Exe was able to partially open the portal to the other dimension... but did not succeed for some unknown reason. But after his daughter accidentally touches the artifact, it was able to open a portal in which people said they saw a barren land."

The A-Rank young man suddenly explained about the artifact to the 3 B-Ranks who listened with all their attention. Unknown to them another person is listening to their conversation inside one of the rooms in the village.

"Hmm… So that is the purpose of the artifact. Well, if it will open a portal to the demon world, why do they think that it could open a portal to Sudan continent?" Xin Ja muttered while listening to the discussion of the four people.

"Anyway… If that artifact could truly do what it can, then the more I needed to get it. If I can go to the demon world, then I can take this fight to them, right?" Xin Ja thought as it would be another plausible solution to his task.

Plus, coming to that place means that he could slowly absorb the Ki from the demons making him stronger faster.

However, this line of thought was suddenly interrupted when he heard what the A-Rank suddenly said.

"If we go to the demon world, we will expect an easy fight. This is because… the strength of the demons in that place is not as we think it is. The reason why they are opening portals to our world is that they wanted to make the Ki energy from this place transfer to their planet…"

Xin Ja suddenly stood up when he heard this.

He hit his head in realization.

"Those demons at most are only at deity realm. They might be considered as powerful beings outside of this planet, but… in here they are only at the beginning level of the Ki-Fighter realm…" Xin Ja muttered as he realized something.

After thinking, he now has the desire to get that artifact and study it. If he could truly go to the other side, then there might be a chance to end it all on one strike.

But of course, he is also aware that for a few years now, the portals have been opened, he knew that the Ki from this world has entered the demon world and there might be a chance that some of the demons and Shadow Beings have also grown stronger.

With that in mind, Xin Ja's determination to get the artifact is now in stone. Of course, if he could not get it, getting a glimpse of it or taking a picture would also not be that bad, right?

But this conjecture still has many uncertainties. For one, the Ki in this place is not as abundant as on the other side of the planet.

And the question of why is it that the portals are opening in this place more, than on the other side?

For these questions, Xin Ja did not have an answer for the moment. He can only investigate things further as he goes.

…

By the time the mission is about to start, everyone has already gathered in the village square.

Xin Ja was assigned to a group of D-Rank and E-Rank awakened. His squad members are composed of 10 people, he included.

They are assigned to be part of the vanguard which would eliminate stray demons that might pose a challenge to the mission.

Along with him is a burly man who is also a C-Rank individual that does not belong to the military.

"We are just here to hunt some demons, right? This would be easier than I thought…" the man said while walking beside Xin Ja.

30 minutes on their path, the group suddenly encountered a pack of demonized wolves.

"Oh, these things have succulent meat once cooked right… Hehe… Ever since you've shown us that demonized beast meat can be eaten a lot of people have begun experimenting on it…" the man said but whispered his last few words at Xin Ja with a wink.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback as he did not expect that the guy before him knew who he was.

"Surprised? Hehe… When I saw your name, Adam Summers… I have my doubts. I mean, how could you travel thousands of kilometers in this demon-infested land without getting killed? But I guess it just showed that you are stronger than everybody thought…" the burly man said.

Although the information in this world is not easy to spread, the awakened and the military still have their ways to spread the news around.

"Hehe… But it's just me. I mean, no one could get that information. After all, it is a military secret." The man added with a grin.

"I am Dozer…" the man suddenly extended his hand to Xin Ja.

"Adam…" Xin Ja replied while shaking the hand of the man.

While the two are chatting, the rest of their squad is busy fighting against the pack of wolves.

It did not take long before the wolves are killed by the combined effort of the 8 members… though one of them got wounded, with a severe wound, on his stomach.

Xin Ja walked to the guy and checked his wound.

"Hmm… It is not that bad…" he said making the rest frown in dissatisfaction.

But no one said a thing as they did not want to offend the big shot before them.

Xin Ja takes out a simple healing pill from his space and feeds the pill to the wounded soldier.

5 minutes later…

The group was astonished as the man could not move his body and his wound is already gone.

Now they knew that with this person in their group, they don't have to worry about getting wounded heavily.

As long as he is around, none of them will die as long as they still have a chance to live.

And so the group continues traveling and soon arrives near the mouth of the valley where the mist should be appearing.

"I thought they say that this place is covered with mist?" a soldier among the group asked while looking at the valley before them.

"I think this is the work of that A-Rank…" someone commented.

"You mean that guy?" suddenly another soldier pointed in a certain direction.

When everyone shifted their gaze, they saw the direction where that guy is pointing and everyone was a bit stunned.

They saw the A-Rank young man along with the 3 B-Rank looking at the valley.

"If it is not them, then… what happened here? I swore that when the last time we scouted this place, it was full of mist… those who dare enter this place did not come back…" a soldier commented on the side.

"Look, they are now making a move…"

Everyone saw the A-Rank young man jumping high up in the air and began hovering towards the valley. He was followed by the 3 B-Ranks.

Even without using a telescope, Xin Ja could clearly see what is happening as he observe the four individuals going toward a mountainside.

Suddenly, he noticed a slight ripple appearing before the four people suddenly vanished from their sight.

"Huh? Where… Where did they go?" asked a soldier while looking at his binoculars.

At this time, Xin Ja felt a bad premonition and quickly jump high up above the trees. Then he triangulated the area and quickly takes out a few bone runes from his inventory.

Without hesitation, he quickly installed a defensive array around his own group.

After doing so, he landed on the ground, and in his hand are ten MCAWS.

"Use these weapons to protect yourselves…" he said without any explanations.

The soldiers look at their weapons and then at the new weapon given to them. They all showed confusion in their eyes, but they had all handled rifles before, so the feeling of holding a slightly bulky weapon is not new to them.

p Xin Ja touches the ground and nods as he knew that his decision was correct. He knew that something is about to happen.

It was a bad premonition that he felt when those four people enter that strange formation by the mountain.

"What do you think is happening?" asked a soldier.

"It's a trap created by the demons… Since the mist was gone, their location is now compromised… So it's either they break out and destroy everything in their surroundings, or go to another place…" Xin Ja shared his theory.

The rest just nodded their heads and waited.
