The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 384: It’s Almost Over

”WAKE UP! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DREAMING ABOUT!”, Rex shouted as he canʼt help but picture what Evelyn is dreaming of right now, even his face is flushed because of this.

Hearing the sudden shout, Gistella opens her eyes abruptly.

SHING!

The white energy glows in her hands as she looks around warily, Rexʼs shout surprises her so much that she even went into his battle mode.

Seeing Rex is up sitting on the bed, Gistella lowers her hands, ”Master?”

”Itʼs fine, you donʼt have to be so alert here. Go back to sleep”, Rex said as he smile wryly, he then looks down and saw that Evelyn didnʼt even budge in her sleep.

Itʼs like her body subconsciously doesnʼt want the dream to end,

After rubbing his eyes a couple of times frustratedly, Rex moved Evelynʼs arms that are hugging him before he went to the bathroom to freshen up and came out of the bathroom

Rex saw that Gistella went back to sleep just like he commanded,

ʼFor fuck sake Evelyn, youʼre giving me a hard time right nowʼ, Rex thought as he rubs his flushed face roughly, his eyes then landed on Evelyn who is still sleeping.

Last nightʼs event where his body shuts down makes him look at Evelyn in thought,

Although heʼs very tired from fighting non-stop yesterday, it shouldnʼt be to the point that his body shuts down in front of Evelyn like that, ʼDid I subconsciously lower my guard around her?ʼ

ʼWell she does know about my secret, maybe thatʼs whyʼ, he thought.

Rex then left the room and went straight down to have breakfast, he went to the restaurant section of the hotel before he found a buffet there.

Upon looking at the buffet, Rex frowns as itʼs more than he expected.

”Excuse me, but arenʼt the city low on food?”, Rex asks one of the hotel staff there.

Hearing this, the hotel staff smiled politely as she replied, ”The citizens have enough food to last them one more week, itʼs okay to provide this much for those of you who helped the city”

Rex nodded his head before he sigh, ʼIf thatʼs the case...ʼ

A moment later,

Rex took a hefty bunch of the food as he started to devour them to fill his empty stomach, he was not eating as much as he used to eat because of the cityʼs condition.

Although the staff already gives a green light, he still restrains himself.

But itʼs a solid three peopleʼs portion,

While heʼs eating the food in silence while watching the view of the city on his right,

Liliya, Velten and Dray enter the restaurant area followed by the other members of their teams as they too wanted to have breakfast, the three of them then saw Rex already sitting alone in the restaurant and decided to approach him.

”Rex! Youʼre here already?”, Liliya asks as she takes a seat beside Rex.

Seeing Liliya suddenly sitting beside him, Rex then replied, ”I just got here, the buffet here is quite good and you guys donʼt have to worry about the cityʼs ration. The city still has enough food for a week and the UWOʼs supply will arrive in a few days”

”Oh really? Then Iʼll try not to restrain myself”, Velten added from the side.

The four of them started eating but Rex has already finished his, now heʼs checking the systemʼs map that pinpoint the location of the fire serpent spirit for Adhara.

ʼItʼll take at least half a day to reach there with Deltaʼs speedʼ, Rex thought.

Although the place of the fire serpent spirit is in the Vampire territory, itʼs not deep into their territory as itʼs still close to the Great Barricade just like the Lightless Marsh he visit before.

But he still needs to cross the Great Barricade, and he will certainly avoid the stronghold.

Since the Werewolf reinforcement is supposed to arrive here last night, the main reinforcement consisting of 10,000 Supernaturals and 3 Alphas should already arrive at the stronghold.

They undoubtedly come there to reinforce the stronghold in response to the Cessation Knight,

While Rex is thinking about the stronghold, he suddenly remembers about Raul as he glances to the cityʼs view in thought, ʼThey shouldʼve already come back, letʼs check how did the ambush goʼ

”Have Gerrardʼs team come back yet?”, Rex asks opening a conversation.

Liliya then glance at Rex before she replied, ”I donʼt know, but Fakhir hasnʼt come back yet so they must be still fighting against the other Undead company”

”They should finish around mid-day”, Rex replied nonchalantly.

But then Liliya suddenly asks from the side, ”What are you going to do with the captured Undead Rex? We waited for you to see if you have something in mind”

”Personally, giving them to the leader of the city will be an option since they might have some questions and these Undeads can still provide some information for them”, she added.

She just finished eating as she wipes her mouth with a tablecloth,

Hearing this, Rex glanced at her with a frown, ”Captured Undead? What do you mean?”

”The chained Undead that weʼre supposed to kill while trying to anger the Undead, we didnʼt manage to kill them all since you took care of the Enchanter quicker than expected. Now theyʼre gathered at a warehouse near the hotel”, Liliya explained.

Rex widen his eyes as he forgot about those Undead,

He can just kill them all for exp but he suddenly remembered something, ”Iʼll tend to them later, just make sure someone is watching over them. Not that they can do anything though”

With the death energy cleansed from their bodies, these Undeads are basically powerless.

They canʼt use death energy anymore to conjure any kind of spell or enhancement, and now theyʼre basically slightly stronger beings than normal humans.

Liliya nodded her head as Dray suddenly said, ”Iʼm going to take a drink”

Dray gets up from his seat before he walks over to the drink section, thereʼs a weird aura around him that Rex senses which makes him confused.

”Whatʼs wrong with him?”, Rex asks.

Velten then sighs upon hearing this before he explains, ”Itʼs about the Rusalka you killed before, he still thinks that youʼre being too much to the Rusalka who just wanted to enter heaven”

Hearing this, Rex squints his eyes as he looks at Drayʼs back.

”Is that so? If thatʼs the case, after everyone is up tell them to gather at the entrance of the city”, Rex said before he stands up from his seat and went to the bar section.

Looking at this, Velten and Liliya were surprised to see Rex sitting on the bar.

Rex didnʼt even say anything to them as he suddenly stands up and heads to the bar section, and this makes Velten and Liliya look at each other before they sigh.

”He must have a lot of things in his mind”, Liliya mumbles.

Velten also nodded his head as he added, ”Just leave him be, itʼs his responsibility as the leader to keep his strong front as we do to our team members”

The both of them saw Rex order a glass as he chugged it down in one go,

Both of them relate to what Rex is feeling right now, they even started to admire Rex more since turns out heʼs still a normal human just like the rest of them.

Unknown to them, Rex does have things in his mind but not like what they think of.

”Give me the strongest one”, Rex said to the bartender.

Hearing this, the bartender gives Rex a glass before he chugged it in one go as he asks for another one, ʼFuck I canʼt calm down, I might have to avoid Evelyn for a momentʼ, Rex thought.

Even after eating to his stomach content, his mind canʼt stop thinking about Evelyn.

She has really done it this time as her sleep-talking makes Rexʼs mind go wild, he canʼt stop picturing what Evelyn is dreaming in her sleep for her to talk like that.

ʼItʼs not the time to think about that, get it togetherʼ, Rex thought shaking his head.

There are more pressuring matters that he needs to do and he didnʼt have the luxury to get distracted like this, Evelyn is just too dangerous to be left beside him.

ʼI need to finish the things here fast and go back to Adharaʼ, Rex thought as he chugged another glass.

After drinking for a moment feeling a little tipsy,

Rex went out of the hotel and headed to Raulʼs office before, he was going to check whether last nightʼs raid is successful or not.

The cityʼs folk can still be seen repairing the cityʼs wall,

All of them work together repairing the city wall lest they got attacked again by the Supernaturals, itʼs refreshing to see the people here still brimming with hope.

Rex walks through the street before he suddenly saw a mother and daughter pair,

The both of them are holding flowers in their hands as they walk in a direction, Rex then also saw a couple more people bringing flowers as they too headed in the same direction.

Feeling curious, Rex went and follows them.

After following them for a couple of minutes, he saw many people gathered there.

The place is crowded with the cityʼs people, and upon closer inspection turns out the place is a cemetery for the fallen Awakened, black hands, and even the military who died protecting the city from the Supernatural siege before Rex and the descendants came here.

ʼNo wonder theyʼre really trying their bestʼ, Rex thought with a sigh.

Heʼs currently in the back part of the city and turns out the back part of the city is dedicated to becoming a cemetery for these people, just from a glance Rex can see thousands of tombs.

Seeing that many powerful people died protecting their city,

Itʼll be heartbreaking if the city people lost hope, they will disrespect the deceased one if they were to do that which brings them to keep trying to help whatever they can.

After checking the cemetery, Rex head to Raulʼs office.

Upon nearing Raulʼs office, Rex was surprised to find that the Awakened and the black hands there seems to be celebrating as they all had smiles on their faces.

The guards escorting Rex last night are standing by the entrance,

Seeing Rex walking towards the office, the guardʼs eyes lit up as he immediately approach Rex with a light jog and a brimming with happiness expression, ”Sir!”

”Whyʼs everyone looks happy this early in the morning?”, Rex asks curiously.

Although he already guessed from their expression, Rex gave them the joy of telling him the good news that should seal Eqosa Cityʼs deal from Supernatural siege.

With an immense amount of excitement, the guard then said, ”Iʼve had great news!”

”Sir Raul with the people he leads made a move last night and they manage to fend off the Werewolvesʼ reinforcement! Itʼs a miracle! The city is saved!”, the guard exclaimed excitedly.

Hearing this, Rex canʼt help but also smile.

Rex then said, ”Thatʼs great news! Then bring me to Raul”

”Follow me, sir! Sir Raul is already anticipating you inside his office”, the guard replied.

After following the guard as they made his way into the office, Rex enters back Raulʼs office where he saw Raul spreading his arms to the side with a wide smile.

”The miracle of the city! Come sit down”, Raul said signaling for Rex to sit in front of him.

Raulʼs change in demeanor shows clearly that heʼs in a great mood,

Rex sits down in front of Raul as he asks with a wide grin, ”I heard last nightʼs raid went smoothly, I assumed that you exploited the information I gave well?”

Hearing this, Raul then replied, ”Your information was accurate, they didnʼt saw it coming”

Back to last night when Rex told Raul about the secret route,

Raul is worried that although they know about the secret route where the reinforcement will come from, the Alphasʼ senses are too sensitive that they might not be able to ambush them.

Itʼs clear that itʼs unlikely to catch them by surprise,

The Alpha has a very keen sense of danger that will definitely sense them before going out of the secret route, they will collide with an eighth rank Alpha then which will be risky.

But Rex notices something when he visits the secret route himself,

When the secret route closed on Rex and Gistella as they checked on the dark secret route, Rex noticed that he canʼt sense Delta who doesnʼt come with them, and stood by the riverside.

He didnʼt put much thought into it at first,

But when Raul told him about his concern about the Alpha senses, Rex remembered this little detail and told Raul to just gather the black hand and Awakened to ambush the Werewolvesʼ reinforcement.

Since even he, a prince Werewolf canʼt sense pass through the portal formation.

Itʼs unlikely for the Alphaʼs senses to pass through the portal formation either, except if the Alpha has a natural gift of sense like Kyran then the Alpha might sense the ambush.

Judging from the success of the ambush, it seems the Alpha doesnʼt have this gift.

Of course, at first, Raul was a bit skeptical about Rexʼs suggestion,

After convincing Raul for a bit and showing how serious Rex is, Raul finally takes a huge risk by following Rexʼs suggestion but it turns out to be a huge success!

”That Alpha didnʼt see it coming”, Raul said with a cheeky smile.

He then added, ”Just when the Alpha opens the secret route, I already positioned about a hundred black hands to fire directly at the Alpha with the silver bullet. This barrage of silver bullets acts as a perfect cover for a definite shot, that bad boy there caught the Alpha by surprise even with its terrifying reflex and pierce its skin easily”

Raul points at a long and big gun on the side of the room,

Upon looking at the gun that even its length alone almost reaches the ceiling, Rex was quite surprised as it seems to be a modified sniper rifle with high penetration power.

”That sniper rifle the black hands brought made specifically to penetrate Supernaturalʼs thick skin, it manage to injure the Alpha”

”We rain silver bullet on them, and thanks to the narrow secret route itʼs very effective. We chased them down the secret route while keep shooting at them, the Awakened also made chase for them and before we know it the reinforcement already retreated completely”

Hearing this, Rex nodded his head as he too finds the situation is in favor of them.

Although the Alpha is an eighth rank Supernatural thatʼs very terrifying, the secret route that is only about thirty people wide is definitely cramped for their numbers.

Even if Rex was put in the Alphaʼs shoes, he definitely canʼt evade the rain of silver bullets.

That didnʼt exclude the eight rank Alpha, if it got hit by a silver bullet then its battle power will be decreased heavily just like Rex when he got shot by the Green Messenger.

”Did that Alpha dies?”, Rex asks.

Raul shakes his head, ”Unfortunately no, the Alpha is still an eighth rank Supernatural. But still, now that the reinforcement got kicked out Eqosa City will have time to breathe”

A moment later,

”Where are we going Rex?”, Evelyn asks from the side.

The descendants and the black hands are already gathered at the front of the cityʼs gate, theyʼre all are already wearing their armors again just like before.

Looking at Evelyn, Rex averted his gaze from her making Evelyn looks at him in confusion.

Rex then looks at Velten and Liliya which makes them raise their eyebrows before he glances at Dray, ”The Supernatural is gone, all that is left are the ones taken care of by Gerrard”

”Itʼs almost over...”

”Now that weʼre almost done here, weʼre going to make a statement for the Supernatural that might try to take Eqosa City again in the future. They will not stop until the stronghold is taken care of, Iʼm sure of it”

Hearing this, the others look at Rex in confusion.

Seve then asks from the side curiously, ”How are we going to do that?”

”Oh, the Undead has given me some ideas. Just follow me and youʼll know...”
