Chapter 592: 592
An hour or so after transforming into the White Tiger, Arthur caught a decent amount of rabbits, reaching the 90 mark, however, he didn't close to the two or three rabbits he stumbled upon . Even with his high stats, there was a high chance he'll get blasted . Sure, he can try to pass through the attack using the divine beast's unique ability but take a risk and see if it actually works .
Till now, Arthur doesn't know if it's a mental, soul, or physical attack . His consciousness wasn't affected but when the green rabbit sent him flying, a huge chunk of his health was depleted and it wouldn't be surprising to see the orange or purple rabbit straight out one-shot him .
If his health reaches zero due to a physical attack, he won't die but that doesn't mean it doesn't affect him at all, which is why he behaved with such wariness . It was long after catching the 95th rabbit that Arthur started sensing the presence of other contestants actively seeking targets . Moreover, the number of rabbits in the vicinity was slowly declining, making it more problematic not for him but for his wife, who has yet to arrive on the 6th floor .
What made matters worse is Zodiak, who crazily unleashed an absurd amount of Dark Magic, capturing a lot of rabbits all at once and immediately moving to the 7th floor . Arthur is also able to showcase such destructiveness using Rizaki or the other ultimate skills but, in doing so, it'll further decrease the chance of Lucy clearing the task . Furthermore, there's no need to act like that as he's almost done with the quota and is only lingering in the area for his wife's sake .
Zodiak's Dark Magic blast engulfed about 1/4 of the whole forest and turned into a corrupt place covered in a deadly fog . The rabbits weren't the only ones affected, two other contestants were hit but didn't die, nevertheless, they suffered heavy damages . One was a scythe-wielding man from the Heaven and Hell Universe while the other was cultivator originating from the 'Treasure' High-Realm .

He was an elder from a sect called the Soaring Star sect and was a peak Overgod, because of what he unintentionally did, things became quite chaotic on Haven . He was delighted to see his foot step on a trigger and a light appear but that happiness was all but brief as there was an explosion which erased him from existence . The only thing left was a small piece of his taoist clothes falling from the sky .
Such an esteemed and powerful individual was killed in a split second due to the trigger, which was supposed to teleport him to the 6th floor . The spectators first felt confused then understood that there are two kinds of triggers, lucky and unlucky ones .
Most stopped carelessly stepping everywhere and readied themselves for a violent impact . Zoln, the dwarf in Maxine's party was pretty lucky as he was teleported to the Land of Rabbits unwillingly . He was sitting on a corner and chugging one bottle of alcohol after the other only for his butt to press a random trigger, enveloping in light and taking him elsewhere .
Seeing her comrade gone, Maxine got triggered as she wants to go too but she could only frustration by mumbling a few inaudible curse words . The thief, Tula, and the Shaman already went ahead and only she and the priest remained, further incensing the player .
The rate of which the contestants were getting teleported drastically increased, leaving only a few behind . Plus, the exploding traps became more abundant therefore increasing the fatality rate and endangering the remaining unlucky ones . Amongst the Black Seat's group, only he and Lucy were still on Haven, unable to find the right spot even after going around the area multiple times .

\"So… what do we do?\"
With his eyes focused forward, the thief asked the mage Tula, both of them gazing at a growling White Tiger that had electric currents dancing around its feet .
\"…\"
The young man raised his staff and started injecting Mana just in case Arthur attack, which he didn't . He crossed paths with them yet again but this time, none initiated a battle . They just appeared on the 6th floor and the parasite was in no mood to fight these two players .
After a long round of staring, the divine beast turned blurred before vanishing from their sight . It dashed in the opposite direction, easily bypassing the countless bamboo trees and continuing its hunt of rabbits .
Only ten were left to finish the quota and he was planning to leave only one or two before comfortably waiting for Lucy . Her late arrival was making him worry and hesitate on whether to stay or head to the 7th floor, which is, presumably, a free for all meant to reduce the still ballooned number of contestants and, basically, fish out the tough ones .
…
The reincarnator, Losha, was just about to grab a fleeing rabbit only for a white shadow to pass by her and swiftly steal the target, making her frown and give chase for a few seconds before realizing who it actually was .
Seeing the White Tiger and its absurd speed, she managed to easily guess its identity and gave up on mindlessly chasing a troublesome target such as Arthur . She had no enmity with him but she did dislike him and want to beat some sense to him but it wasn't the right place, just like last time .
As for Arthur, he, of course, did that on purpose just to irritate the female blacksmith . He was just passing by and saw her thanks to his map so he decided to do such a childish thing, which turned out to be not that hard since Losha wasn't really taking this 'hunt' too seriously, after all, she's neither activating her Physique nor taking out her Divine Sword, also known as, Grail .
Less than a minute after encountering Losha, the leaping White Tiger was stopped by a rapidly flying light lance heading towards it .
The parasite activated the beast's unique ability, which caused the lance to pass right through his body, however, doing so made the projectile hit two rabbits, which instantly fused .
Arthur turned to look at the man wearing a big white hood and holding a lance made of Holy Magic . He was the same lancer that was pulverizing Cthulhu back on the 4th floor and, from the looks of it, the lance was aimed at him and not the rabbits .
Speaking of the rabbits, an orange one appeared the moment the spear got close . Sadly, the lancer's attack disintegrated when it made contact with the rabbit, which glared at the tiger close to it .
Seeing the rabbit preparing to attack again, Arthur ignored the assailant and instantly changed forms . The White Tiger was replaced by a black tortoise double its size and covered in black shells that emitted a pure Earth Energy .
Fortunately, Arthur made just in time to block the rabbit's first attack, which, unlike last time, didn't fling him far away and only pushed him dozens of meters to the size, breaking a few trees on the process . Some shells cracked but none were destroyed, moreover, his health decreased by a meager 5% .
Now, Arthur was further away from the rabbit than the lancer was so, the small orange-furred animal unleashed its last attack on the man, who threw a couple of lances at Arthur only for them to explode when hitting the unbreakable earthen layer surrounding the Divine Beast .
Noticing the drastic change in the situation and the direness he was currently in, the man tried to turn around and flee only for his body to fall on the ground due to the abruptly changing gravity . His muscles bulged as he tried to resist but his surroundings distorted and his senses were lost as Arthur cast a realistic illusion which bought enough time for the rabbit to attack .
