My Space-Time System



Two weeks later, Castiel and Brian returned from an escort mission at the south of the Synder Empire.

As top-ranking B-rank adventurers, Brian and Castiel were never in lack of missions. It was only a matter of the highest bidder.

2 days into their 3-day break, they received a high-paying job offer even for them that didn't lack money in any bit.

The offer was from researchers who wanted to study and extract venom from venomous creatures in the Malock desert for the creation of antidotes and potions.

Normally, research organizations buy the beasts from beast tamers. However, due to the dangers of the desert, difficulty in transporting them through such long distances, and the almost non-existent demand for them; No one would risk their lives for such stress. 

Having no other options, the researchers had to go in person and they needed protection for the 48 hours of their stay in Sandheaven and the Malock desert.

"After this mission, we should go on a long vacation." Brian tried to console himself as they made their way to meet up with the researchers.

After signing an agreement for the mission, the researchers deposited half of the gold coins with the Adventurer Association and gave the other half to Castiel and Brian.

Once all the paperwork was completed, both groups made their way to the Adventurer Association's warp array.

The contract between the researchers and the Order of Chaos adventurer party was the employment of their services for the next 48 hours. This made travelling by carriage a no-no; so they had to pay an exorbitant fee to use the warp array.

On arriving at Sandheaven, they wasted no time boarding a carriage that took them to the gates of the city before riding Camel-type beasts into the Malock desert.

Using a special map that had information on areas with different beast habitats, the 2 researchers navigated their way through the desert.

After 2 hours of nonstop movement, the group hadn't been attacked even once by any beast.

"The problem now is finding the beasts in question." Castiel frowned. He didn't like the idea of staying in the open, under the hot sun of the desert; it made him feel vulnerable.

"You don't have to worry about that, We brought along a sensory magic device that tells if beasts are within a certain range." Seeing the sigh of relief from Castiel and Brian, the researcher continued with even greater enthusiasm.

"It is also able to replicate the mating calls of particular beasts, even those that occur at frequencies we can't hear."

"That's great…" Brian said with a forced smile as he thought. 'I am just trying to get out of here as soon as possible.'

Not long after the explanation, a Knight rank scorched viper tried to stealthily slither toward them from behind, but they were ready for such attacks.

Having studied the info of most of the beasts in the desert, Castiel knew how dangerous its toxic breath was, so he didn't allow it to get any closer.

He brandished his daggers, sending out explosive slashes at the Scorched viper.

BOOM! BOOM!

Although the scorched viper was naturally resistant to fire, the force of the explosions still dealt damage and stopped it in its tracks. This gave Brian the time to gather sand spikes that stabbed into Knight rank viper.

HISS!I think you should take a look at

The scorched Viper hissed in pain as it tried to break away from the sand spikes that impaled it, but Castiel was already there to stab it with his darkness tendrils and begin draining its energy.contemporary romance

In less than 3 minutes, the scorched viper had all of its vitality drained making it harmless for the researchers to draw close and extract its venom from its fangs.

Once all that was done, the researchers killed the knight-rank beast and placed its 8-meter-long corpse into their high-grade dimensional amulet, and continued moving.

Just 2 minutes after they were done with the scorched viper, Brian sensed the vibration of sand particles coming from behind them.

They quickly turned, only to see another knight-ranked scorched Viper and a knight rank Scorpidraconis.

'Things are better than I thought.' Castiel couldn't help but smile as it seemed the heavens had decided to smile upon them. 

"The scorched viper is not needed." One of the researchers said.

They had already gotten a container full of the scorched viper's venom, so the Scorpidraconis was the main target.

Immediately, Castiel and Brian sprang into action. 

Castiel dashed toward the Scorpidraconis, covering some distance before sinking into his shadow. He came out under the 4-meter-tall Knight rank scorpion and cut through 2 of its hind legs.

HISS!

The Scorpidraconis hissed in pain as it made use of its remaining 3 sets of legs to turn, but Castiel had long manoeuvred to the right.

Infusing his blades with the heat of the fire element, Castiel slashed through 2 of its legs, causing the Scorpidraconis to fall to its side. 

Still weary of the stinger, Castiel made his way to the front and slashed off its claws before manoeuvring to the back to stab it with darkness tendrils and drain its vitality.

At the same time, Brian was done dealing with the scorched viper and was approaching him.

"Is it me or has it become hotter?" Brian couldn't help but ask because he felt his water element was weaker than it should be in the desert.

"I noticed it too but I didn't think much about it…" Just as Castiel finished the sentence, they sensed another beast coming their way. 

"Don't leave the mating calls on indefinitely, we still need to extract the venom of this guy!" Castiel screamed at the researchers who were trying to get them swarmed by monsters, but their replies shocked him.

"We are yet to turn it on." The researchers were confused.

Feeling like they had been struck by lightning, Castiel and Brian turned to look at each other.

"Restrict this guy I will take care of the other." Castiel said to Brian in a hurried tone before turning to the researchers. "You guys should extract the venom as quickly as possible before something else shows up here."
