Versatile System Online

Chapter 23 Fighting A Pseudo-Intermediate-Tier Night Spider



After everyone had discussed and strategized on how to defeat their respective opponents. The instructor asked them to follow him to their respective opponents.

The first team led by ‘Nia’ followed the instructor to the first room while their opponent was a huge beast that stood sturdy like a mountain. The beast is from a rare breed of behemoths that specialized in the Earth elements. However, this behemoth could also control metal elements by turning the earth’s elemental mana into a metallic element. Nia along with her team went into the first room to fight the behemoth.

The training rooms that the instructor lead everyone to battle against the beasts were nothing more than an extremely condensed spatial formation that condensed space in a certain area.

One could use this formation to control the space to the amount of area the formation covered. This formation had been built recently when their strongest formation master evolved his system to the calamity realm and acquired the ability to make formations with a spatial attribute.

The spatial room that Ray and his teammates were led to was not much different than the usual training room. It had a battle arena in the middle where the beast was standing without attacking anyone while the whole place was empty. There was also a weapons rack at the side wall from where one could choose a weapon of their choice to battle.

However, on Ray’s team, no one chose a weapon. Not because they did not need one but rather because they had weapons of their own. As even the weakest system user would obtain a basic grade weapon from their system upon their system awakening, and these basic weapons were mostly way better than basic weapons forged by human forgers. Moreover, some people from Ray’s team had rather great family backings therefore, their weapons and equipment were outstanding. As for Ray, he had the versatile system and Aurora had given him quite a good starter pack.

Thus, right after they entered. Ray gave them a signal and they circled the Mutated Night Spider while they maintained they had agreed. The formation that they had agreed on was a simple pentagonal formation. With their member Tim being at the front providing them defense and being their tank with help of his system while Ray and Sirius would alternate between attacks. Other than that, Elina and Noah would pincer the night wolf spider with curses and spirit force attacks respectively.

Lastly, Aliya would be at the back of the formation and heal anyone who got injured while being safe at the back where no one would attack her. With this, no one dared to lack in their actions and decisively followed Ray’s orders as not only had his strength from the previous test been imprinted into their mind but they did not dare underestimate a pseudo intermediate tier beast that was way above their level. Thus, they knew that they had to work together to defeat this beast while working together in perfect sync.

After everyone took their places, they took out their equipment and weapons. Ray equipped his intermediate tier sword beast soul along with a basic tier armor beast soul that he gained from a Rock Loin he defeated previously while he did not equip his intermediate tier beast soul armor.

He did so to not gain any attention from people as two intermediate-tier beast souls were not easy to come by and his intermediate-tier beast soul armor was at its peak as well. Moreover, Ray liked to keep his cards hidden and he took out his intermediate-tier sword beast soul only because he knew that it was very hard to injure a pseudo-intermediate-tier beast with a basic tier weapon. Other than beast souls, Ray also churned his mana into both of his hands ready to cast lightning and fire spells with them.

On the other hand, Tim also used his system, causing his entire skin to gain a metallic sheen while his muscles bulged. Then, he brought out a large shield that he wielded with both of his hands. The shield had a crimson glow around it while it looked as if made from the bones of a beast.

Moreover, there were several runic patterns on the shield that indicated that the shield was forged by a forger and was a great defensive weapon while its aura made it easier to be recognized as an intermediate-grade weapon. Ray, upon seeing it did not give it much thought as after all, intermediate-grade forged weapons were much cheaper and common than beast souls because beast souls had automatic regeneration abilities if given enough time whereas, forged weapons and artifacts had to be repaired by the forger.

Right after Tim, Sirius also activated his system. It caused his body to change tremendously as not only his muscles bulged but brown fur started to come out of his skin.

His eyes turned into beastly slits while his mouth elongate into a snout filled with razor-sharp teeth along with large canines that resembled the fangs of a vampire. All of Sirius’s body had changed, claws came out of his hands while his legs also swelled and his feet also had enlarged and his appearance greatly resembled a humanoid brown wolf.

Ray looked at Sirius and only one thought came to his mind when he saw him transform and felt the aura of a pseudo-intermediate tier beast coming from him and that thought was,

“Beastly”, Ray seemed to perceive Sirius as a beast while Aurora spoke in his mind, ” That guy that transformed into a werewolf in front of you is very special so be on good terms with him or if possible, make him join you”.

Huh!!!, Ray asked Aurora why she spoke such words but he did not get any reply. Hence, Ray left it be while all his other teammates also took out their equipment.

Elina took out a calligraphy pen and when she activated her system, the pen allowed her to write curses in the air. Moreover, her pen was also a treasure in the intermediate grade just like her brother. The pen allowed her to amplify the power of her curses while giving them a physical form, causing them to last longer and be more potent.

While Elina took out her pen to write curses in the air, Noah took out a mask along while several needles floated in front of him. As Ray saw the mask and needles, he identified them as beast souls with the mask being at the intermediate tier while the needles were basic tier weapon-type beast souls. Ray roughly guessed that the mask increased the power of spirit force attacks Noah could cast while the needles acted as the medium of attack.

Ray had seen everyone prepare for the battle other than Aliya. Therefore, he glanced at Aliya and saw her wielding a pure white staff that had a golden crystal embedded on top of it while several gold veins followed down the crystal to the whole staff. The staff also pulsed with a resplendent golden glow confirming it was a pseudo-advanced tier weapon.

Other than that, a golden armor appeared around Aliya’s body with the aura of an intermediate-tier beast soul. Moreover, Ray noticed that the armor also had some unknown special attributes that aided Aliya. Therefore, he understood that the Rose family was not backing down on Aliya’s safety while giving her the best protection without hindering her talent or slowing down her growth.

After noticing that everyone has taken out all of the weapons and artifacts they wanted to. He confirmed that everyone was ready to battle using hand signs so as not to alert the beast. While in response everyone nodded with fervent gazes.

Then Ray and the team charged forward as Ray gave them the signal to attack the pseudo intermediate tier beast. Led to their first fight against a pseudo intermediate tier beast that was way out of their league considering their strength.
