Chapter 487 Chase
Vincent immediately visited Krusk and informed him about the situation… Since the latter was also a bit bored, he agreed immediately and transformed into a dragon…
Vincent now gained a mount that could travel as quickly as the Celestials but a bit slower than the Third Gen - Tempest…
Anyway, before he left the city with Krusk, he already informed Rem that they can use the specially modified aircraft so they can get there a lot faster.
The presence of tens of Celestial Beings would give a lot more impact than his presence alone after all.
As for the reason why he decided to travel with Krusk, it\'s simply because he recently Transcended an item that will go well with Krusk…
He believes that even if they encounter the Overseer, he wouldn\'t be killed so easily with this new item.
\'It\'s a pity that not everyone received Master Ignacy\'s amulet…\' Vincent mused as he recalled Calidia\'s report.
He wasn\'t sure how the Arch Knights and Celestials died in the ambush but he knows that if they have the Void\'s Crack Amulet that Ignacy gifted to many, they would surely survive.
\'Haa~ This is such a disaster…\'
Vincent shook his head as there is no point thinking of this now. He has to move forward and save as many as he can.
"Vincent, I\'m increasing our speed. Just tell me if I\'m on the right path…" Krusk spoke in his mind.
"Yes… Just continue this way. It will probably take a long time so if you need to rest, tell me… I have potions with me as well so you can replenish your energy faster."
"Alright!" Krusk answered as he felt more energetic and showed his true speed.
Since the Werewolf Slayer Squad took about two and a half days to arrive at the enemy base, it will take them several hours even if they travel non-stop…
A lot of things might happen at this time but Vincent knows that the squad was already out of immediate danger so he wasn\'t too worried.
As a matter of fact, the last report they received was that they were trying not to completely become out of werewolves\' sight or senses…
They were keeping their distance so they can be followed!
That\'s right, they were confident that they can keep their distance from the werewolves and are waiting for reinforcements as well.

At the border of the Martial Arts Alliance and Black Tower\'s territory, a small group consisting of three powerful Martial Artists arrive at the location where they felt a strong fluctuation of energy that could threaten their organization…
It was so strong that they have to send these three people to investigate…
"It\'s not the Avatar, right? I no longer want to fight with that creature again." Colm, a man who seem like a monk spoke in a tired voice as he recalled his battle against the Avatar before. It was one of his worst nightmares and he was sure that he wouldn\'t survive that battle if he fought alone.
As a Paragon, he can say that the Avatar is the strongest being he had ever fought with.
"Hopefully not… In any case, we\'re only told to investigate this matter. If it can threaten the alliance, we have to deal with it before it\'s too late… But if we can\'t handle it, we can just escape since the Alliance Head did not tell us to solve this matter with everything we have."
A huge old man who was twice the size of the monk spoke in a deep voice. He is also a Paragon and his name is Niall. Aside from his huge figure, he can be easily recognized because of the large battle axe on his back.
"That\'s true… I hope they were just Celestial Beings fighting with each other."
The only woman in the group wearing a long scholar robe added as she grinned with excitement. Her name is Ariana and she\'s also one of the Alliance\'s Paragon.
"…and if their contractors are present, do you mind if we kill them?" She continued.
As they looked ahead of them, they can see the vast prairie that will lead them to the Black Tower\'s territory.
They wouldn\'t normally pass this land if the Black Tower is still the same… but because of the Black Magic Organization, the Archmages that will normally patrol this area were no more.
"Hmmm… The Alliance Head said that we capture all the Celestials we meet as long as we can do so… I guess killing their contractors would be a good method to do it." Colm replied as the forces in the Alliance are starting to gather Celestial Beings as much as they can.
They weren\'t previously interested in the incredible power of the Celestial Beings since as Martial Artists, they seek individual powers. They\'d rather focus on strengthening their clan or alliance instead of relying on the powers of the Celestials.
However, the situation has changed. Recently, numerous dungeons within their territory started acting up…
The number of dungeon creatures would increase at an alarming rate.
If this would happen to only one or two dungeons, they wouldn\'t mind this at all but it happened to over 30 dungeons already and it keeps increasing…
The thing that truly disturbed them are the words mentioned by the Alliance Head, a monster outbreak might happen soon!
The dungeons may no longer stop the beasts from leaving their territory and would create chaos in their territory!
Stopping this from happening is not even an option.
The most they can do is adapt to the situation and survive. It may not be a huge threat to Paragons like them but it will certainly create chaos and havoc in the Alliance.
With this in mind, they have to find strong fighters that could lead the front lines…
Needless to say, the Celestial Beings were selected for this task so they were already searching for them… It may be difficult to search if they\'re not showing themselves but as long as other Celestial Beings would work for them, finding others would just be a matter of time.
"Hmmm? What\'s going on?! Those aren\'t Magic Beasts, are they?" Colm asked in shock as soon as he saw the bipedal wolf from afar… Even though they were three miles away from them, they can still see the figures clearly!
They have followed the strong fluctuations of energy for several hours now and only this time have they managed to see them with their eyes…
"It might be the Lycans that I\'ve seen in the old records… I didn\'t expect they\'re actually real… Furthermore, they\'re chasing some Celestial Beings!"
