BXBX NOVEL Chapter 165 Killing the Corruptor
Chapter 165 Killing the Corruptor
Alex perked up his ears and listened to the sound from the surrounding more carefully.
Grr… Argh… Huff…
A faint rough voice of someone growling was detected by Alex, causing him to frown.
"Growling? This voice doesn't sound like it's coming from a human…"
Looking deeply into the dark aller, Alex became wary of whatever is releasing this growling sound.
"Maybe I should take a look, just to be safe."
After thinking of a while, Alex decided to take a look at what's really causing this growling sound.
Slowly, he walked to the alley while keeping vigilant.
As he moves closer to the alley, the growling sound that Alex hears grows louder and louder in his ears.
When Alex finally entered the alley, a pungent smell immediately assaulted Alex.
"Kukh, what the hell is that?"
Alex questions as he hurriedly covers his nose.
The smell made Alex more wary of whatever is hiding in this dark alley.
Finally, Alex found the cause of the growling sound and pungent smell when he came to the other end of the alley.
Here in the back alley, a two meters tall monster with a chubby physique and a hideous body, oozing with pus, appeared in Alex's sight.
Grrr… Argh…
Growling sounds continuously sounded from the unknown monster's throat, added to its looks, what Alex is seeing right now could only be said to be a horrifying sight.
Frowning, Alex stared at the monster with disgust.
"What the hell? How did such a monster appear in the city again?"
While Alex is wondering about that, the monster, the Corruptor, has already noticed Alex's presence.
The Corruptor's hollowed eyes looked at Alex as it opened its mouth wide, letting out Shatter!
a roar.
"ROAR!"
Shatter!
Even just a simple roar from the Corruptor caused a wave that broke many glass materials in the area and even caused the earth to tremble.
Inevitably, this woke up the people who were sleeping in their houses nearby.
"Ugh, what the hell was that?"
"Honey, wake up! A loud roar came from nearby!"
"This… a normal animal's roar shouldn't be able to break the window."
"That's what I think as well, maybe this is that, from the Alter Dimension. A monster!"
…
The people who were awakened by the loud disturbance around started a discussion.
And it didn't take long before those same people realized what was happening.
A monster has appeared nearby!
Thanks to the government, people aren't that ignorant of monsters anymore.
That is because, since the day they announced the existence of Alter Dimension, the government has been spreading more information about it little by little.
Having more knowledge about the Alter Dimension makes the people more aware of the world.
That is why the people around immediately come to the conclusion that a monster has appeared.
Anyway, this realization caused panic to some of them.
But there are also some whose eyes lit up with curiosity.
And this is especially true for Rommel.
"There's a monster nearby? For real?!" Rommel muttered.
Right now, instead of feeling fear because of the monster, Rommel felt excitement.
Rommel is one of the people who successfully passed the assessment that was started by the government in regards with the recruitment for players.
Back then, he only tried going to the assessment on a whim.
Unexpectedly, he actually passed!
Because of this, Rommel became more and more interested in anything related to the Alter Dimension.
So, knowing that there's a monster nearby, Rommel's curiosity was piqued and he couldn't help but want to get a glimpse of it.
Without even caring that he's only wearing shorts and an old tattered shirt, Rommel went out of his house.
Running for a while, Rommel followed where the loud roar from earlier came from.
Since his house wasn't that far, Rommel soon spotted the large hideous creature in the back alley.
The Corruptor.
"That's the monster?! … It looks really ugly and disgusting."
Rommel stopped moving forward and hid behind a wall to avoid being noticed by the monster as he observed it from afar.
At this time, as he was looking at the monster, Rommel noticed that the Corruptor was actually looking somewhere and followed its line of sight.
It was only then did Rommel see the figure of a man standing on the ground near the monster, unmoving.
Seeing someone there, Rommel was shocked and didn't know what to do.
Rommel wanted to yell at the unknown figure to make him run but in the end, Rommel decided to remain silent, hidden from the monster.
From afar, Rommel observed the figure as well as the monster who seemed to be looking at each other.
That figure is of course, Alex.
At this time, the corruptor raised its hand and suddenly, black smoke came out from it and started spreading all over the place.
Seeing that, Alex frowned and said, "I don't know what you're doing but, it must not be anything good. So, stop it!"
Alex pushed his feet against the ground and the next moment, he appeared in front of the Corruptor's face.
Suddenly, Alex punched the Corruptor!
Boom!
The power contained in that punch caused an explosion in the air, showing just how strong it is.
When Alex's fist hit the Corruptor, the expression on its face showed shock.
Boom!
The Corruptor's body flew away and hit a couple of houses in the surroundings.
Immediately, the place around the Corruptor became a ruin because of all this.
Fortunately, it seems like the people in those houses and even those around it have already evacuated, leaving it empty.
Looking at the place where the Corruptor landed, Alex observed for a while without moving.
"That shouldn't be enough to kill it…" He muttered.
As if to prove his words, after a few seconds, the rubble where the Corruptor got buried showed some movements.
The next second, the Corruptor stood up and looked at Alex furiously.
ROAR!
For the second time, a loud roar echoed all over the place.
This time, it was louder than before and it can even be heard all over Pearl City.
Alex frowned and said, "You're really noisy, aren't you?"
Suddenly, Alex once again appeared in front of the Corruptor and kicked its wide open mouth, forcefully closing it.
ROO- kuhck!
The Corruptor was surprised by Alex's sudden attack and didn't react immediately.
Not caring about that, Alex raised his fist and hammered down the Corruptor's head.
Boom!
The concrete ground below the Corruptor caved in, causing more cracks to spread all over the surrounding ground.
Alex didn't stop there, after landing his fist, he pulled it back and once again punched the Corruptor.
With Alexa continuous attacks, the Corruptor didn't have the time to get up, much less, fight back.
Finally, after a full minute of beating, Alex stopped his hands.
At this point, the Corruptor can't even move anymore and just lay there like it's dead.
Alex looked at the monster on the floor with indifference.
"You should have remained in the Alter Dimension instead of going here."
After saying that, Alex casually pulled a knife from his inventory.
Then without hesitation, he slashed at the neck of the Corruptor, cutting it, letting green blood flow everywhere.
Alex just stared at that sight without much emotion.
After a while, a kill notification appeared in front of Alex's eyes, confirming the death of the Corruptor.
[You killed a 3-Star Level 121 Corruptor, +121,000 experience points.]
Alex just glanced at it before turning his eyes away.
Next, Alex shifted his eyes into a wall that's not far away from here.
For a while, Alex stared in that direction without saying a word.
After a few seconds, Alex looked away and took his phone out from his pocket and dialed a number.
Ring~ Ring~
Click!
[Hello?]
The phone only rang twice before the call was answered on the other end.
The one who answered the call is one of the three Raven siblings and the one that manages the CPS, Glen.
When Alex heard Glen's voice, he can also hear the sound of the wind whistling and realized that Glen is on the move.
Alex thought, 'Hmm, maybe he already heard that a monster has appeared here and is currently on the way?'
Alex nodded and felt that his conclusion seemed reasonable.
With that in mind, Alex did not delay anymore and started talking about what just happened from the beginning.
