THE LINEUSS ATTACK (SYSTEM)
Chapter 50: Staying
Krr …!
A growling sound from a creature he had never heard appeared around the passageway.
Rai's feet tread the floor carefully and certainly did not create a sound when stepping, the growl was more clearly heard from his eardrum as Rai stepped closer.
“Kuro, can you find out where the sound came from?“ Kuro asked in a small whisper to Kuro who was on his right shoulder.
Hearing Rai's question asking him to find out the origin of the voice, Kuro was able to do it and he nodded.
“Slowly and carefully, Kuro.“
Seeing the tail of Kuro curling in front of him was walking towards the source of the sound, Rai once again reminded to be more careful.
Rai's feet stepped following Kuro who was still walking to somewhere in the hallway he was exploring now.
Keep walking behind Kuro, until finally Kuro stopped in a room to the left of the hallway which is located at the very corner of the hallway.
In accordance with Kuro's direction, this growling sound was so loud that Rai was sure it came from inside this room.
Forward one step forward carefully and do not make a sound, the door of this room is open and without a door.
With his hearing and majestic of mind, the position and number of monsters can be felt by Rai.
Do not know to be grateful or not, because there is only one monster in the room.
Even so he could not feel how the monster was shaped, could only feel the size and how much this monster was, although it was not so 100% accurate%.
Methuragon's weapon had Rai slowly flying and raised above his right palm, and then the weapon split into two swords with blades that were quite long.
The power of his telekinesis made these two swords float, Rai secretly made a plan to kill the creatures that were inside the room.
The plan is to attack suddenly!
Rai's body moved very quickly and he immediately appeared at the door of the room.
A monster that is the same as Huuzer Crawler, but has a difference, that this monster has a long tongue.
Not giving it a chance to dodge, both Rai swords slid so fast, even before the monster reacted.
Zeb! Zeb! Sraaatt …!
The two swords pierced the head as well as the back of the crawling monster, then Rai controlled his sword to split the monster into several severed body parts.
“New type?“ Rai spread his telekinesis power in all directions within a radius of a few meters from him, afraid that someone or a monster might arrive to attack him.
Not feeling anyone around him, Rai's hand took out something from his bag, a long object that did not exceed the surface area of his palm in the form of a slender tube, which he had, the object released by Rai is a flashlight that he has not used for a long time.
Turning on his flashlight, a monster similar to the one he often encountered was apparent now.
“Huuzer Crawler?“
[Dig! Kill 1 Huuzer Licker (F+). Get +5 Exp, +5 Coins!]
As soon as he said that name, a mechanical sound of the system suddenly appeared in his head.
After hearing this name Rai's gaze focused on the long tongue that came out from the monster in front of him, and said, “Licker? The game console on Earth has the same name but, the appearance is different.“
His two swords reunited and flew towards his right hand.
At the tip of his sword he pointed towards the tongue lying on the dirty floor, trying to examine the long tongue by touching it with objects.
Tss!
A sound like a flesh placed on a hot tray run down by margarine was heard by Rai's ears.
Impressed as the sound of cooking oil is already hot, Rai suspected this tongue has a corrosive acid, but not as strong as the acidic liquid Boss Huuzer Crawler or Corro Huuzer Crawler.
Both monsters have an acid so destructive that even concrete can be melted.
“But, why does this monster make a loud snarl? What does it mean?“
Come to think of it, what was the purpose of this monster snarling for? Did he call his friends? Or just fishing for their prey?
Grr …!
When Rai thought about this, another growl sounded from outside the room.
Standing up and turning around quickly, grasping his sword, Rai slowly walked out of the room.
“You heard that, Kuro?“ rai asked in a whispering tone to Kuro who was in front of him standing in front of the door.
Kuro turned his head and nodded, he heard the growling sound as well.
“Know where the sound came from? Can you track him?“ Rai asked once again Kuro.
Kuro's response was once again the same as before.
“Alright, take me there, Kuro.“
Actually Rai can also find the source of the voice, but because there is Kuro which is a definite solution, so he asked for Kuro's help only.
To be faster and more certain.
The two started walking towards a room, by running the same pattern, settling slowly, entering the room, and killing monsters with swords.
The method continued until several times the growling sound was found, and finally the entire room had been cleared of monsters of the same type.
[Dig! Kill 1 Huuzer Licker (F+). Get +5 Exp, +5 Coins!]
Rai's legs were instantly lifted from the skinless monster's head after hearing the System's reminder.
A total of 12 monsters of the same type he had killed in the eastern passageway, quite from this examination he gained experience to quickly increase to the next level, he said, also useful coins for buying goods or eating in the future.
Walking with Kuro sitting on his right shoulder, Rai walked towards the main lobby room of this building.
From Kajauhan Rai can see a human figure standing while staring at the scenery in front of him.
That person was Loret who was looking at the reception desk of this hotel, from the look on her face she was thinking about something, also the gaze on the object was empty, her attention was focused on what she was thinking right now.
Rai just walked over without any intention of bothering Loret, but as he walked into the lobby room, Loret immediately regained her senses and turned to look at her.
“There are monsters there?“ loret asked Rai who was walking towards her.
“There, new type.“ Rai answered briefly and densely.
The moment Rai heard Rai's words, Loret's eyes brightened along with the curiosity that appeared within her body.
Turning his body sideways facing Rai, Loret said, “What type is it?“
“Monster ...“ As Rai wanted to continue with his sentence, another voice rang and immediately cut out his sentence.
“Monster tongue.“
Loret immediately looked towards the western passageway, the figure of Flank emerging from the dark passageway.
Flank said it.
Staring at Loret and Rai with quite serious expressions, exhaling, and saying, “This new type is Huuzer Crawler who has another body weapon, namely his tongue that has hot acid.“
“But the acid attached to the monster's tongue is not enough to beat one of my fists.“
Flank's eyes fell on his slowly raised hand, an expression of pride arising on his face.
With the feeling of a battle against a new monster he encountered, Flank considered his strength stronger than before. This one week was not in vain he made it as a spontaneous exercise, killing monsters for one week made it stronger, the stone fist getting stronger and harder.
“Huuzer Crawler? A tongue? I seem to know what kind of.“ it is
Folding his hands on his stomach, holding his chin down, Loret tried to recall the name of the monster again.
“Yes! I know!“ Loret exclaimed, her eyes twinkling after remembering what kind of monster it was.
“Huuzer Licker!“
Loret mentioned the name of the monster correctly, according to what the system had told her.
“I remember someone giving information regarding this monster, at the time I was still living in South Lhee City.“
Loret's face seemed to be slightly yearning for the figure that told the monster information to him.
“We talked about above, we have to secure this building soon because we will sleep here for one night only.“ Flank interrupts Loret and Rai to immediately clear the building of the monsters.
“Ya, we have to go.“ Loret nodded in agreement.
It was time to go clean up this building before the sky grew darker.
“Come, Rai.“
Loret unconsciously invited Rai, after a long time she did not call Rai now Loret suddenly called Rai's name and invited him.
Rai was a little strange with Loret calling her name, these past few days she had never called her name, her friendly attitude was gone, but at this time her attitude was back to normal.
“Follow me, emergency stairs are in the west aisle.“ Flank walked back into the dark passageway and said.
While inspecting the west hallway of the building, the emergency staircase was accidentally found, so Flank should have known the place.
The two of them followed Flank who had gone the first way, passing through various kinds of broken rooms, Flank stopped at the rusty iron door, but there was still the rest of the color paint on the door.
Pushing the door firmly, Flank opened the door for Rai and Loret.
Together they climbed the stairs with an elongated marching formation, Flank at the front, Loret at the center, and Rai at the rear.
Pointing his head up, the emergency stairs are not so high, because the floor of this building is no more than ten floors.
On the second floor, the three of them scattered back with the same task, which was to inspect the entire room on the second floor, north Loret, west Flank, and east Rai, their southern parts together.
This kind of pattern the three of them do up to the entire floor in this hotel building.
[Kill 10 Huuzer Licker (F+). Get +50 Exp, +50 Coins!]
[Kill 3 Huuzer Licker (F+). Get +15 Exp, +15 Coins!]
[Kill 5 Reek Huuzer Crawler (F+). Get +15 Exp, +15 Coins!]
…
[Kill 8 Huuzer Licker (F+). Get +40 Exp, +40 Coins!]
The dozens of monsters that were inside the building that the three of them were now entering had been exterminated and obliterated.
Now that the building had been safe for a while, they were finally able to sleep soundly in this place.
Flank took Loret and Rai to the 5th floor of the building, because he thought the 5th floor was a safe place, and there was a room that was still fairly good and worth staying in for one night.
Loret and Rai agreed, the three of them walked towards the place that Flank had told them about.
Chequek!
The sound of the door closing rang, the three of them had entered a room enough to stay together.
Just like Rai did when he first met them, he sat by the door and leaned against the wall.
While the two were the same, Loret sat under the window and leaned back, while Flank sat on a mattress that was quite clean despite the amount of dust scattered.
“I feel Dejavu now,” Loret chirps while looking at Rai and Flank.
“True, we were sitting in the same position when we both met Rai.“ Flank added and slightly smiled, no matter what the smile meant.
“Moreover I am also now the one who is keeping you both asleep,” Loret said with a faint smile.
“Can be like that, yes. Weird.“
Recalling again, it was now Loret's turn to guard the night, and this was exactly the same as what happened the moment Rai met the two.
Strange, is this destiny?
Or something coincidental?
“After night, you better sleep, Rai.“ Loret suddenly reminded Rai to sleep.
Because Flank lay briefly on the mattress he immediately fell asleep and snored.
“You first met me and Flank didn't sleep, right?“
“I remember once it.“
Loret said to Rai, recounting what she remembered while sleeping in the room of Central Lhee city.
“Ya.“
Rai's brief response was heard by Loret's two ears, shaking her head, sighing, she said, “This time you better sleep, tomorrow we will continue the exploration of the city, the, most likely going against a monster we have never seen before.“
When he heard this Rai immediately pondered to think about Loret's words, he finally agreed to the reason he had not slept for two days.
Since it had been seven days with them and nothing had happened to show that they were evil, so Rai had enough trust with these two young men for now.
It was time to prove whether he would be safe while sleeping with them or not.
“Good.“ Rai immediately put his bag on the beach near the side wall of the door, then he lay down and put his head on top of the bag.
“During night, friends.“ Loret said a greeting before going to bed to Rai.
This speech was a bit awkward to be heard by Rai, but quickly the thought he was agile, and went straight to sleep.
Kuro also lies down beside his body, ready to sleep.
Not long after, Rai's consciousness declines and enters the sleep phase.
“You sure?“
“Yes, I'm sure this guy has a secret in his bag.“
“OK we start our plan.“
A vaguely audible conversation was heard by Rai, but Rai was still unconscious and still in the dreamland.
The whispering voice of the conversation grew clearer, causing Rai to be disturbed and want to end her sleep.
'Miaw!'
Right we Rai woke up from sleep and opened his eyes slowly, the sound of Kuro meowing was clearly heard by his ears, instantly Rai woke up and rose from sleep.
“Eh?“
As soon as Rai tried to get up and get up, his body could not move as if something was holding him back.
His hands and feet were like they were tying him with rope.
Instantly Rai's gaze was fixed on the two figures standing in front of him while looking at him who was lying bound with a terrible grin, one of the figures was holding a cat that was also tied by a rope.
Rai's eyeball widened with great surprise, and said, “You guys!“
