THE STRONGEST NEXULYTE

Chapter 127 Clint's profile

A couple of minutes ago after the first shift where the group got separated, Karin found herself spinning in between blood walls.

She ended up hitting her head and blacking out for a few seconds, she only regained consciousness after a minute.

When Karin woke up, her head was fussy, and she wasn't able to think properly; it took her a while to come to her senses, and she was able to take a good look at where she had ended up.

It was a small square that was only five meters, and all four sides were blocked off; the only path that could be used to go out was up; how was she supposed to climb the blood wall that was over two hundred meters high?

Thankfully, there were no monsters in this space so Karin was able to rest easily.

She sat in a corner and rested her back on a side of the wall, her mallet resting on the ground beside her just in case.

"I'll wait for the labyrinth to shift again, then I can go look for the others" Karin mumbled softly and waited patiently while staring at the blood wall.

The next few minutes were boring as hell, all Karin had to do was stare from one side of the blood wall to another side; she got so bored that she almost slept off.

After an excruciating couple of minutes, a sound that made Karin's eyes light up sounded.

Rumble!

The ground shook, and the four walls surrounding her began to shift; Karin found herself spinning rapidly again, but this time, she stayed close to the ground and didn't end up flying around like last time.

After a short while, the shifting stopped and everywhere fell silent.

Karin got up with an expectant look in her eyes but her gaze turned dark the next moment.

She was in another small space with all sides blocked off.

Karin blinked, her expression slowly changed before turning into a furious one.

"Ahhh!"

She screamed at the top of her lungs. Out of anger, she grabbed her mallet and jumped at the wall.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

She began slamming her mallet on the blood wall, she didn't stop even when she saw that she was not dealing any damage; she just wanted to vent her frustration.

After going at it for who knows how long, Karin finally stopped.

She was tired, and her breathing was ragged; small drops of sweat fell from her chin.

She slowly stepped back from the blood wall and fell to her butt.

"Stupid labyrinth!" She yelled angrily.

She suddenly saw something from the corner of her eyes after calming down, and she turned to take a better look.

Her eyes widened.

Laying on the ground about three meters to her side was a small shiny crystal, it was a Nexus crystal!

Beside the Nexus crystal was the corpse of a monster that had been split in half around the waist.

"The Nexus crystal must have come from this monster, but where did they come from?" Karin wondered as she crawled over and picked up the crystal to take a better look.

"It's really a Nexus crystal, awesome!"

Ignoring her frustration from being trapped twice, Karin sat down and began to absorb the energy inside the Nexus crystal.

Ralph would definitely vomit blood if he knew about this.

…..

Unlike the others who had gotten into relatively safe situations after the first shift, Clint's case was a bit…special.

Currently, Clint was sitting on the back of a pitch-black snake.

Although the snake was dead, its body wriggled like constantly moving black worms. It was dozens of meters long and was as thick as a tree; on its head were four cross-shaped eyes that gleamed with green light.

It was a Nightmaw!

Above it, Clint was dressed in a cloak made from darkness and wriggled like caged smoke; on his back were a pair of almost invisible shadow wings, although his shadow wings were torn after the fight with the Nightmaw.

"Cough!"

Spit!

Clint coughed once and spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was bruised, and blood covered a part of his face, and one of his eyes was covered as swollen skin surrounded it.

"Damned labyrinth" Clint mumbled softly before coughing again.

His mind drifted to a few minutes after they got separated by the first shift.

...

Rumble!

Blood wall burst out from the ground, and Clint found himself cut off from the rest of the ground, and the scorpions were no longer in view; next thing was the space around him spinning.

Immediately, Clint formed shadow hands that held him to the ground and prevented him from getting tossed around.

Everything came to an abrupt stop after a short while and Clint released his control over the shadow hands, letting them return to being shadows.

He looked around and saw that he was in a wall light ball with jagged shining rocks covering most of the space.

A couple of scorpions happen to be in this place, too, and Clint easily disposed of them.

After looking around for a while, Clint saw that there was only one way out of this place, which was a window-like opening ten meters up in the wall.

Due to the light coming from the shining rocks, there were very few shadows in the place for Clint to make use of, but that wasn't a really big issue for Clint.

Since no one was with him, Clint had no need to restrict his abilities.

His eyes turned pitch black as the Nexus energy within him boiled and started to gush out from his body in the form of dark mist, in less than a minute, Clint had surrounded himself with a wave of true darkness.

This was the true essence of his talent, the dark element: the ability to manipulate darkness.

For various reasons which mostly concerned his background and childhood, Clint was a very distrusting person and didn't have any friends. He was used to dealing with things by himself and didn't trust anyone to do anything for him.

Naturally, such a person would also develop the habit of hiding things as well. This was exactly what Clint had done all these years, making everyone believe that his talent was just to control shadows; but the truth was that…

NAME: Clint Owen

Talent Group: Combat Talent type: Elemental God Talent: Dark element (Emperor of darkness)

Talent lv: S AP: 33.23% Rank: TRUE KING

…..

His talent did more than just controlling shadows but this was only known to him.

With the wave of darkness surrounding him, Clint's perception naturally increases as well and his senses become sharper.

He was planning to use the darkness he had summoned to get to the opening that was up on the wall but now that his senses had heightened, Clint felt that the surroundings weren't exactly as it seemed.

His eyes narrowed as he moved the darkness around him, sending them in all directions; his eyes suddenly widened; he sensed something.

Hurriedly calling back the darkness he had sent out, Clint controlled them to form a tall wall of wriggling darkness in front of him. A second after he formed the darkness.

BAM!

An enormous mouth that was twice the size of Clint appeared out of nowhere and crashed into the wall of darkness.

It was the Nightmaw!
