The Tale of the Void Emperor

[ Select one talent ]

- Transformation: Tensen 

- Alluring Blood

- Bone Blades

- Berserk

Athan and others each have a different list of talents.

The tricky thing was no detailed information. They didn't specifically know the details of the talents.

They talked for a bit and decided to pick the talent which they deemed powerful.

Athan chose the talent [ Transformation: Tensen ]. Although he didn't know anything about this talent, he still decided to pick it since other talents looked lackluster to him.

Others also selected a talent.

Tiana selected [ Burning Wings ] as many flame feathers sprouted behind her back and turned into burning wings of 6 meters wingspan. She could control the burning feathers to attack and fly.

Avelia selected [ Valiant Aura ], which made everyone feel invigorate and increased their physical functions.

Qerin selected [ Resistance Field ], which can reduce the energy type damage done to them. The field is always activated.

Mike selected [ Body Expansion ], which turned his body into a giant 7 meters tall and increased his physical power.

Seeing that everyone has selected their talents, Roukin spoke, " I suggest we choose [ Suffer Together ] team trait because it will help us survive fatal attacks. The [ Chain Attack ] sounds good, but the enemy will not be so easy to let us hit it, and we are all powerless right now as we can only use physical attacks and talents. "

Athan and others fell into thought. They actually wanted to vote [ Chain Attack ] since it was a powerful trait that could kill any enemy, but what Roukin said also made sense.

After discussing a bit together, Athan looked at Roukin and said, " We have decided to vote for [ Chain Attack ]. "

Roukin shook his head and sighed but didn't say anything and everyone voted.

[ Team trait, Chain Attack selected. The hidden condition revealed. ]

- Before successfully finishing the chain attack, none of the members should be hit by the enemy, or the chain will break, and you will have to start again. 

[ To pass the first floor, Please defeat Furazin ]

After that, All of the screens disappeared, and the hall started to tremble as a formation circle appeared in the middle of the hall.

Everyone moved back to create some distance as after a few seconds, a strange creature appeared.

The creature known as Furazin had two legs, two hands, big dark green wings behind its back, and its face had a giant beak and red eyes, while its fur was fully orange with red patterns.

In the hand of the creature was a green wooden spear that was glowing.

Everyone's face turned serious as Furazin looked very powerful with a height of 4 meters tall.

They were also a bit shocked by [ Chain Attack ] 's hidden condition, but Athan had confidence that they could use this team trait without trouble.

Furazin roared and flew towards Mike, who looked the biggest with his [ Body Expansion ] Talent.

But when Mike tried to punch Furazin, It nibbly dodged and pierced the spear in Mike's upper left arm.

" Aaaaa...Shit, " Mike cursed, but he still used the same hand while enduring pain and hit the Furazin's back.

A black " 1 " appeared on top of Furazin.

Athan then transported Mike into the special space, confusing Furazin.

Avelia and Qerin moved and kicked Furazin as " 3 " appeared on top of its head.

Both Avelia and Qerin could only use physical attacks. Hence, they took this chance when Furazin was confused due to Mike's disappearance and kicked it before Athan transported them inside the special space.

Furazin roared, but Avelia and Qerin already disappeared and went inside the special space. 

Tiana was floating near Furazin, so she attracted its attention before retreating and started dodging its attacks, albeit with difficulty.

Meanwhile, Athan shouted to Roukin, " If you have any long-range attack, then use it. "

Roukin had his eyes wide opened, seeing how Mike, Qerin, and Avelia disappeared. Still, he soon snapped out of his reverie after hearing Athan and opened his mouth as a freezing breath released towards Furazin.

" 4 "

Tiana was barely dodging Furazin's attacks, and when Furazin was hit by Freezing breath, It slowed down considerably.

Athan and Tiana both took this chance to hit Furazin as " 6 " appeared on top of Its head, and just after that, It started to turn into ashes from top to bottom and disappeared in a few seconds.

Athan didn't even have a chance to use his talent.

[The first floor passed, Ascending to the second floor. ]

The round wooden hall started to tremble and started to move upward.

At this time, Tiana came near Athan and told him something.

Hearing it, Athan raised his eyebrows in surprise and smiled, " Let's try it. "

Athan brought out Mike and others from special space. Mike's injures already healed since it was a minor injury for him after entering the special space.

Roukin watched everyone appearing with his mouth wide open, but he didn't ask or say anything. He was just glad and felt fortunate.

' Looks like I am lucky to be in the trial with this bunch of humans. '

They finally ascended to the second floor and were shocked to see that it suddenly became much smaller.

Roukin's face turned grave as he said, " It will be hard to dodge and run in this small hall. "

Mike, Qerin, and Avelia nodded.

The round hall practically became half of the first floor's size.

But Athan and Tiana just smiled.

" You got any plan? " Avelia asked, seeing them smiling.

Athan nodded but didn't say anything as they focused on the screen in the middle.

[ The reward for passing the first floor is a random will imprint, and it has been sent to your inner space. ]

[ To pass the second floor, please defeat the Belaoarg ]

Once again, the floor started to tremble as Belaoarg appeared in the same fashion as Furazin.

Belaoarg had four horse legs and four hands. He had a bull's head and two red horns, while its whole body was a dark yellow skin with black patterns.

Athan wanted to try something, so he entered the special space.

After entering, He told lucky to create several destruction orbs.

The creatures like Furazin and Belaoarg looked fierce like demons, but their general strength was weaker. But since their powers were also sealed, they had trouble defeating them.

Now he would bring the destruction orbs outside and see if he could use them to kill Belaoarg.

Seeing five destruction orbs that were 2 square meters big in front of him, Athan smiled and went outside.

The Belaorg was targeting Mike for obvious reasons.

Athan saw that the destructive orbs didn't disappear, nor the trial said anything, so he threw them towards Belaroarg.

It was overkill as Belaroarge died blasting into pieces, and those pieces turned into ashes soon.

[ Second floor passed. ]

[ After passing the third floor, You can select another team trait and individual talents, OR you can also choose to leave the trial and get the final reward. ]

[ The reward for passing the second floor is a random rule fragment, and it has been sent to your inner space. ]

[ Good luck. Ascending to the third floor. ]

" Hahaha, we are cheating once again, and it's working very well. " Mike laughed and said.

Roukin was confused and doubtful for a moment, but he put those useless thoughts at the back of his mind and just thought of himself as a lucky guy to encounter these humans.

Athan, on the other hand, fell into thought after hearing Mike and said, " We already saw how mysterious these trials are, and I doubt it would've let us cheat like this. I think it didn't reject or did something to destructive orbs because they are within the range of this trial's power ceiling. "

At this time, Roukin nodded and spoke, " Indeed, the energy you used was origin energy, so the trial didn't reject it since the freezing breath talent I got also utilized origin energy but. If you had used primal energy, then the trial would've dispersed your attack. "

Right after he finished speaking, They also arrived at the third floor, which turned out to be a bit wider than the first floor.

[ To pass the third floor, please defeat the Enizom Trio ]

The Enizom Trio were slim humanoid creatures with the head of a weird bug and had long green legs and scythe-shaped arms with blades in place of hands.

They moved very fast and directly started attacking Mike, Roukin, and Athan, who used his talent.

After using [ Transformation: Tensen ], Athan's whole body became black, and he got bigger.

He became a solid black shadow as five dark orbs surrounded him, and he felt that he could control them. 

But the Enizom was really fast, and its claws were powerful as Athan was slashed a few times.

Athan finally got the hang of the abilities that came with this transformation as she controlled the dark orbs with his hand movements and hit the Enizom. Still, it didn't die right away, and it could dodge too, so Athan was having a bit of a tough time while Mike was a bit better since Athan told others to support him.

Tiana was shooting her burning feathers while Qerin used force fields to protect him from the energy blast that Enizom sometimes released from its mouth.

Avelia was standing behind the group as she didn't have any special attacking moves because she chose a supporting talent which was actually coming in very handy.

Athan was annoyed as he couldn't defeat the Enizom with this transformation talent and instantly entered the special space before bringing out his chakrams.

*swoosh...swoosh*

After a few seconds, He easily killed the Enizom that was after him, and after another few seconds, he killed the other two.
