The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 1180: Pure Chaos Energy

Upon the System upgrade, all individual quests were terminated.

All of the sudden quests, berserk quests, and also killing intent quests were erased as if they weren't there in the first place. Rex was bummed about this—as he lost a lot of rewards from that, but there were still quests that remained active.

One of them is the Kingdom Quest that he triggered back then.

He wanted to purchase the Vortex Pit of Elements, but it was too expensive for him.

Surprisingly, since this purchase involved the kingdom, or should he say, the empire directly, the System offered an alternative payment, which was through completing a Kingdom Quest to kill a Minor Chaos Inbrid.

Rex told Prof. K and Giana to complete this quest.

It seems like they succeed.

As it was not an individual quest, this quest remains even through the System upgrade.

I don't know why the System wants to kill the Minor Chaos Inbrid, but who cares?

Taking the Minor Chaos Inbrid's head which was already hardly shaped—because of the time of death, Rex nodded firmly, pleased by this outcome, "Good job professor. Now the city will have an independent elemental stone mine"

Prof. K doesn't understand what Rex meant by this, all he did was kill a beast in a far land.

But from the looks of it, killing the beast is not a simple matter.

Upon seeing this, Rex raised an eyebrow, "Hmm...? Why do I need to do that?"

"It's that bad...?" Rex uttered in surprise. "I guess I'll get rid of it now"

Not even wasting a single second, he immediately channeled his dense kingly energy.

Delta moved back in response, keeping a safe distance from Rex.

She stood beside Prof. K, looking at Rex with curiosity.

Rex gripped the Minor Chaos Inbrid's severed head tightly, his fingers digging into its matted fur. His kingly energy, an overbearing crimson began to seep from his hands—enveloping the grotesque trophy.

His kingly energy crackled and hissed, consuming the head with an intent to obliterate.

Prof. K watched this scenery as he was curious about what Rex was doing.

Following that, Rex poured a controlled stream at first, expecting swift destruction.

But then, a violent surge erupted from within the Minor Chaos Inbrid's head.

Swoosh!!

"Huh...?! Rex was taken aback when he saw a purple torrent of energy blasted skywards.

Chaos energy, wild and untamed, flared high beyond the arena's height, shattering his kingly energy—that he used to envelop it. Moreover, the force was immense—sending shockwaves through Rex's arm, nearly making him lose his grip.

It's not stronger than the Fifthborn's Chaos energy, but it's harder to vanquish!

Rex gritted his teeth, trying to keep his grim as the chaos energy pushed him back fiercely.

It writhes and twists with a malevolent life of its own.

Just then—however—responding to the fierce energy coming from the Minor Chaos Inbrid's head, his keen senses flared, recognizing the chaos energy coursing through his body, right now.

His mind was yanked back to the harrowing moment he experienced in the realm of chaos.

Albeit brief, mere seconds thanks to the Countess, his body still remembers how it felt.

ROAR!!

Even though he was recalling that moment—a vicious roar, that shook the entire realm, from the monstrous serpent he met there rang in his mind. He remembered feeling insignificant, a mere speck against the monster's immense presence.

Only after another roar that he snap back to reality, his heart was pounding hard.

Focusing back on reality, Rex blinked his eyes one time and garnered more of his energy.

Remembering their last encounter, Rex was almost certain that it would be the Fourthborn.

He knew that his problem with the Executors was not done.

At the very least, not until he sets it straight with them or kills all of the Executors.

Now, he needs to figure out the where, how, and when.

"What are we going to do with these black spots?" Prof. K asked as he approached.

Upon hearing this, Rex was about to answer that he didn't know but before he could answer, the black spots—began to sizzle with bluish energy. He thought that it was a sign of another trouble, but turns out it was not.

Since it was a damage to the world, the world itself healed the black spots.

Rex and Prof. K watched as the black spots were closed and within a minute—they were gone. Seems like there was no need for them to deal with the black spots, the world has dealt with it.

As the situation de-escalated, Prof. K excused himself to go back to his lab.

He was not a person at the frontline so he was not going to be scouting with Rex outside.

It would be better if Prof. K came—as his power to turn into green smoke and also the poison he could now utilize with his bloodline would be helpful in the scouting process, but Rex, was not going to force him to come.

Prof. K is an introvert who likes to research, so that's what he was going to be.

Rex was not short of people who were exceptional in fights.

Upon Prof. K leaving the arena—Rex did not go to meet up with Flunra instantly, and instead took a seat with his body leaning back to Delta. He closed his eyes and teleported his mind, into the Banished Realm.

Opening his eyes, he was greeted by the same expansive place devoid of anything good.

Only the beautiful full moon on the horizon was the only thing good about this place visibly.

Standing up, Rex scanned his eyes around the place in search of the Countess.

However, to his surprise, the Countess was nowhere to be seen.

"Did she get out of the Banished Realm?" He mused questioningly, as there was only a black rock on the side other than the shallow water, and the moon. "No, that can't be right. Even if she was now freed from the Lunirich Edict, she hadn't recovered enough strength to get out of here, especially after my fight with the Fifthborn"

Finding that it was impossible for her to get out of here, Rex decided to look around.

But there was nothing to check except for the weirdly placed rock on the side.

As he got closer to the black rock—he began to capture moaning noises, and weak breathing sound. Rex was confused, but then as he got close enough to the black rock, he realized that it was not actually a rock.

"Countess!" Rex shouted, realizing that the rock was the Countess curling like a ball. Your journey continues with m v|l--NovelFire

He went over to her and helped her up to a sitting position.

Rex couldn't see her complexion as her face was completely astral black with no features but he could tell that she was breathing heavily through her mouth, "What's wrong? Did the other Lunirich Gods attack you?"

Even then, the Countess didn't answer, she didn't even seem to realize that Rex was there.

Race: Lunirich Goddess

Status: Corrupted and weakened through overexposure to pure chaos energy.

Out of nowhere, a panel was opened, and it was the Countess' information.

He couldn't see her stats like normal, but this was enough to tell him what was going on.

"It's chaos energy again, but when did she get exposed to Chaos energy?" Rex said inwardly, pondering as to when the Countess could be exposed. He thought that the Countess, was in a weakened state because of helping him, but it seems that was not entirely the case.

From the top of his head, Rex thought of the Fifthborn, but he quickly shook his head.

Surely, the Fifthborn is not strong enough to make the Countess like this.

Just then Rex remembered, it happened after the Fifthborn and Fourthborn were no more.

His expression soured when he realized this.

"She was exposed when I was watching Edward..."
