FULL NOVELXO Chapter 42 Rescued
'If we can't win, we need to run', Rex searches his inventory trying to find the stuff he needs.
He tossed Adhara and Rosie a mana and healing potion each, "Drink it hurry, we need to get out of here"
Rex turns his head in the Anansi direction, what he saw makes him gritted his teeth in frustration,
<Qisar>
Race: Anansi/Trickster Spider - Teen
Power: Mid Rank Five - Hypnosis
Mental: 210
Strength: 93
Agility: 112
Endurance: 90
Intelligence: 165
Looking at this, Rex screamed in his head, 'We can't beat this, It's on a whole new level!'
"Let's Run!! We can't beat it", Rex shouted at Rosie and Adhara but he didn't get any response.
He looks at both of them and saw them staring blankly at the spider, they then started walking towards the spider as if they are possessed.
Rex glances at the spider and saw its eyes glow yellow, it seems to be toying with Rex.
He turned his head trying to avoid his gaze especially after seeing Adhara and Rosie,
Rex ransacked his brain trying to find a way out, he saw a smoke bomb on his inventory and a rank 4 anti-magic stone.
The smoke bomb is self-explanatory, while the anti-magic stone is a stone that can deter rank 4 magic, it acts as a disturbance to the caster and nullifying the magic.
Rex bought this stone for a hefty price, he knows that anything above early rank-four is almost an impossible task for him to beat thus he bought this stone.
But Rex didn't expect to encounter a powerful rank-5 Supernatural,
He takes out the smoke bomb and anti-magic stone,
POOFF!!
BLITZZ!
Smoke exploded from the smoke bomb covering the entire area, an anti-magic soundwave also exploded from the anti-magic stone.
Inside the smoke,
Rex dashes to Adhara and Rosie knocking them out, he carries them both with his right hand and carries Laura on his left shoulder.
Just as he wanted to make a run for it,
Qisar frowns for a second because of the soundwave but it didn't take long for it to shrug it off, it then appears in front of Rex.
Rex falls to the ground in shock, he tries mustering all of his strength and sent out a punch.
Rex uses all of his remaining power and skills into it, this punch is the strongest punch Rex can muster on his own.
BAM!!
The punch land solidly on Qisar's front leg but it didn't leave a dent, there is some kind of barrier covering its whole body.
Rex smiles wryly, 'It's too strong, Is this the end?'
Just as Rex wanted to give up, "HEY BIG UGLY SPIDER!! STOP BULLYING KIDS!!", a shout was heard from the entrance of Vouver City.
Rex glance to his right and saw a group of guys in white cape appear, they wear an FAA badge on their chest,
The shout is imbued with magic, Qisar glance at the source of the voice with bloodshot eyes,
'Sound Magic! That's a rank 5 Awakened at least', Rex thought-feeling relieved when the spider changes target and leaped towards the group of guys.
The guy who just shouted musters the mana on his body, a bright light green rune appear majestically on his back.
To reach rank-5, an Awakened need to condense their mana into a rune, this rune is the source for them to use higher tier magic. Upon completing their rune, they can borrow higher-tiered magic like Sound Magic, Lava Magic, or even Ice magic. Rank-6 is where they perfected their rune and master higher-tier magic, they no longer borrow the magic from nature but can directly control it.
He then chanted, "Sound Magic! Sound Assault!"
WONGG!!
The air vibrates, Qisar stops in its track and struggle madly, its right front leg is wobbling like crazy before suddenly,
ROAAR!!
Its front leg exploded, Qisar screamed in agony feeling its right leg destroyed, it then continues on its path in a frenzy.
Qisar eyes glow yellow and immediately, a wave of yellow mental attack blitz from its eyes heading to the FAA group.
The leader of the group waves his hand, a man covered with white hood steps in front, he then moves his hand in a runic pattern and chanted, "Stone Magic, Barrier of Stone!"
The mana flows into his hand like crazy but suddenly,
ROAARR!!
Qisar eyes glow yellow, the mana that fills the man's hand suddenly gone berserk and exploded,
BOOM!!
"AKHH!", The man was sent flying away, the cape on her back is burning as she crashes to the wooden fence,
The leader of the group frowns, "Stay focus, Anansi can't only hypnotize your mind but also your body!", he said with a commanding tone.
He then waves his hand and immediately an ice barrier covers them from the mental attack,
NGIING!!
The group leader then opens the barrier and said casually, "Nathan, stop its movement!"
A muscular man on his right nodded his head and chanted, "Sand Magic, Quicksand", he then slams his hands on the ground.
ROARR!
The ground beneath Qisar suddenly becomes sand, it tries to get out of it but the radius of the quicksand is expanding at a visible rate.
"Lindo! Restrain it!", the leader said to another man on his left, the man is small in size and he wields a metal staff that has a red orb on top of it.
The man raises his staff, "Lava Magic! Lava Chain!"
Immediately after, a chain made of lava exploded from the ground as it strangles Qisar's legs and body, it is completely trapped inside the quicksand.
The leader then walks forward confidently, he looks at Qisar disdainfully as ice element started to gather on his hand.
"Die you filthy creature", he said with clear disgust on his face and chanted, "Great Ice Magic, Ice Judgement!"
SHRING!!
An ice spike thick as a house pierced through Qisar, it wails pitifully with bloodshot eyes before its struggle stops.
But suddenly,
SHRING!!
Another ice spike pierced through Qisar's head, making sure that Qisar is definitely dead, the leader didn't take any chances to let it live.
"Check the surrounding", the leader said before his gaze falls to Rex and the girls.
The FAA group scatters to the surrounding, they check every nook and corner of the place.
The group leader arrives in front of Rex, "You must be the kid who takes on this mission, my name is Argus and on behalf of the FAA, we give our apology for the mistake on our part", he bows a little to show his sincerity.
Rex was confused, "First of all, I offer my gratitude for saving us. What mistake?", he asks.
Argus straighten his back and replied, "Yes, the assessment should be a rank five Awakened in the least but we fail to know the existence of an Anansi and thus the wrong assessment"
"You think an apology is enough for this?", Rex said sharply, although Argus saved them, they shouldn't even be here if the mission is this hard.
Argus frown, "Don't go overboard kid", he said while giving Rex a warning look.
Rex was at a loss for words, "Did you just threatened me? You need more than an apology for this", he said unwilling to back down from the argument.
Argus and Rex were staring at each other, the stare is so intense that the guys that already came back went silent not wanting to intervene.
The gaze stayed for like thirty seconds before Argus breaks it off,
"Fine, I know you are Rex Silverstar. I'll give you guys appropriate medical needs and consult with your university to give you suitable points and rewards. But the next time, don't talk back to me kid, for this one I will let you off, your deeds saved my uncle in the war so consider this as thanks", he said pridefully.
Rex was unwilling to let go but he felt if he pursue this further, it will not be good for him so he nodded his head.
Although he nodded his head, he will remember this arrogant guy and repay the favor.
The other guys reported their findings, Argus then saw a Tree Giant carcass in the middle of the city, he was surprised as he glances at Rex.
'Did he do this? There's a rumor about him in the university, so it is true', Argus thought.
The girls are carried by Argus' group, they then brought back to Argus' group car and head out of the city after confirming the whole city is a corpse city that is made as a trap by the Anansi.
On the way back, Rex looks at his recent notifications from the system.
<Killed an Early Rank Four Tree Giant, Obtained 15,000 Exp, and 2000 gold>
<Participate in killing a Middle-Rank Five Anansi, Obtained 30,000 Exp, and 5000 gold>
<DING!!>
<Sudden Quest Completed!>
<Killing Intent!"
<Obtained 50,000 Exp, 10,000 Gold, and 5 Skill Upgrade>
<Level Up!>
<Level Up!>
<Level Up!>
Reading these rows of notifications, Rex was excited.
Although the mission almost got him and the girls killed, it brings many benefits, the saying of 'high risk, high return' really does applies to him right now.
'Looking back, the Killing Intent mission has so many rewards. It makes sense when in reality I have to kill that Anansi which was impossible for me', Rex thought while shaking his head.
He just leveled up to level 15, he put his 9 attributable stats to even out his stats other than strength, 'My strength stats are increased by a huge amount, I don't need to put any to it'
Because of his Absolute Strength passive skill, he got 4 points in strength every time he leveled up, so raising his level by three added an enormous 12 stats on it.
His stats now looked like this,

He nodded his head in satisfaction after arranging his stats,
Rex is inside an SUV, the SUV is spacious even for twenty people, the girls are lying on the SUV floor covered with a sleeping bag.
They all are hypnotized by the Anansi and fall unconscious, medical treatment is needed but it's not incurable.
Rex makes sure that they are heading back to the university before he too falls asleep because of the fatigue and poison that is still lingering in his body.
