The Place Where Everything Begins

Chapter 89 - The Savior And The Killer (2)

Before the bloody battle started...

*Huff* *Haa*

*Huff* *Haa*

A muscular bald-headed man was running at full speed towards the barricades and traps ahead of him while having five wolves sprinting and chasing after him madly...

"Grurrr!!"

"Wolff!!"

"Fuck!! Glasses, idiot... Why me?" Eddie cursed while running as fast as he could away from the predators behind him.

Surprisingly the two-meter man, Eddie, could run pretty fast with each step that took him almost one meter and a half forward...

Shortly after, Eddie finally reached the vicinity of the barricades, and then he hurriedly shouted aloud,

"Open the damned way for me!!"

When Grayson, Derek, Bob, and Joshua, who were on standby behind the barricades, had heard Eddie's panicked voice, they hastily lifted the barricades. They moved them slightly, opening a gap for Eddie to circumvent inside.

"Alright, close them back." Mitchell said lightly after seeing Eddie had finally come back inside while huffing rhythmically with sweat droplets on his forehead.

Upon hearing their leader's words, the four people on standby quickly put the defensive measures back in their original positions.

*Huff* *Huff*

"Why do I have to be the damned bait? Fucking glasses idiot." Eddie turned to look at the glasses man, Mitchell and cursed as a formality between the two.

Upon hearing Eddie's uncreative cursing words, 'glasses idiot', Mitchell only replied nonchalantly together with a shrug of his shoulders,

"Well, if you are not the one who lures them here, those creatures might sandwich Jeremy at the left passageway's entrance."

"Fuck!! I mean, why me? It can also be other peo..."

"Grurrr!!!"

"Kraaa!!"

Before Eddie could speak any further, the wolves' growling sounds interrupted him...

Then the two buddies turned their heads towards the barricades' direction and saw the wolves were now lingering left and right, trying to find a way through the barricades.

Meanwhile, the flying imps, green goblins, and skeleton soldiers followed the wolves closely behind.

"Alright, no more chit-chat. It's time to fight."

Mitchell said with a slight frown after seeing a tall, muscular green creature, which was supposed to be a 'hobgoblin' at the back of the monsters' formation.

Thus, the eighth wave had officially started...

...

Present time...

At this moment, the ground within the tutorial chamber had outlander corpses and carcasses littering and scattering everywhere.

Meanwhile, the blood, brain pieces, and internal organs of the creatures mixed together, spattering on the cave-like floor, creating a horrifying scene for any onlooker to see.

Anyhow, considering that no more monsters stood on two or four feet anymore, it only meant one thing...

"Finally..."

"Ah... We won just like that?"

"Mister Jeremy is the true monster..."

"I... I can't believe he fights the entire passageway alone..."

"Wow... he is fucking cool."

"It finally ends, right? right? We will finally get out of here, right?"

"We will leave this fucking place at last."

"I want to find my wife and daughter."

"..."

The eighth monsters' wave had eventually come to an end...

The winner was obviously the human's side, while the monsters had lost the fight so badly due to only one man's presence...

After the last monster was slain, people started murmuring and talking with one another incessantly. The voices and sounds caused by people began getting louder and louder within the spacious chamber.

Now, most people were talking and reminiscing back to the time around five hours ago...

When Mitchell called for a meeting again so suddenly and told them that he had found a way for everyone to survive this tutorial together, at first, they still couldn't get themselves to believe it.

However, when everyone had heard the proposed plan from Mitchell, their eyes started brightening and shining with each word coming out of his mouth.

Overall, the plan was 'almost' flawless, and it had a very high chance of success.

Still, it was only 'almost' because there was a variable, which was undoubtedly Jeremy, who wanted to take on the entire passageway alone while letting another passageway for the rest of them to manage.

At that time, they could only think within their minds silently that if Jeremy could stall for time for at least three or five minutes, it would be good enough.

Like that, everyone would have enough time to defeat the right passageway's monsters and been prepared for the other monsters from another passageway.

But who would have thought that Jeremy actually slaughtered an entire army of monsters alone and even had time to come and help them fight at the other side, too.

If he was not the real monster here, then who was?

Right now, Jeremy stood alone outside the broken barricades and traps while still holding the same plain-looking spear leisurely.

Meanwhile, everyone behind the defensive formation was talking to one another about many topics such as what would the next stage look like, how were the Earth and their family members doing, how their lives were supposed to be from now on, and many more.

Well, some of them even started cheering and shouting about leaving this place as those people knew intuitively that they had already met the quota of the missions related to killing monsters. If so, they would also finish the third tutorial mission implicitly.

At this moment, despite many were busy with chatting and cheering with one another, some people within the crowd still occasionally shot a glance or two at the black-cloaked Jeremy, who stood at some distance away.

After all, he was their benefactor and savior...

That's why, right when Mitchell saw that Jeremy had no intention of coming to celebrate with everyone else, he called for Eddie beside him. After that, the two started walking towards Jeremy, who stood among the monsters' corpses and carcasses.

As for Jeremy, he was currently preparing to go to the 'toilet' to wash the bloodstain and many disgusting things from his clothes.

However, when Jeremy suddenly spotted Mitchell and Eddie came walking towards him, he decided to wait a bit more before proceeding on with his own objectives.

Not long after...

"Hey, Jeremy."

Mitchell greeted Jeremy upon arriving in front of the latter, followed by Eddie's concise greetings,

"Hello..."

"Well, what brings you here?"

Jeremy replied with his signature light smile after seeing the two stopped right in front of him.
