Mystical Journey

Wham!

A pry bar that was sucked up and stuck with countless bullet shell casings on the wall suddenly dropped from above crashing towards him.

"Upwind!!" Yuria defended with his saber art.

Garen stood on the side watching, yawning at times. The training has been going on for a few hours. Once the defense was missed, Yuria would receive an inhuman punishment, that is to run naked...

The bullet fragments pulled by the giant magnetic force have sharp edges. Under the high velocity, it easily tore Yuria's clothes, especially when the bullets flew from the bottom up... sounds of his pants tearing up could be heard.

Nine-Tailed Fox chuckled as though she was watching a comedy as she manipulated the magnetic force to open and shut. It seemed like she was playing and having fun rather than training him. Yuria really had the worst of luck to have her as an instructor.

Finally, the training came to an end.

Yuria improved at the speed of light. From being punished to run naked at the beginning to not being bothered about it anymore. His dodging ability also improved from being a mess to only a small amount of fragments escaping from his defense.

"Hydra!" Yuria suddenly yelled. His skin became purplish red. His muscles expanded. His body thickened. He activated the force of Savior and Hydra at the same time.

"Four Directional Winds!!" He held his saber with both hands and four blade sparks rose in connection by him, instantly blocking a large number of bullet fragments flying upwards from the ground.

"Almost there," Nine-Tailed Fox clapped and stopped the magnetic force. She treaded over. "If you meet that opponent again, your current state should be able to catch up to his attacking speed as well as other large-scale dense and far range shooting."

"I feel it too," Yuria nodded heavily. "Thank you for your guidance!" From these recent days spent together, he now knew that Nine-Tailed Fox wasn't as young as she looked. He began to address her respectably in replacement of the earlier casualness.

"Now, you should do what you should be doing," Garen got up and walked near.

"Do what I should be doing..." Yuria smiled bitterly. He did not know how he should answer.

He only meant to look for his mother but after meeting Galouro and learning about a series of events, he wasn't that worried about his mother's whereabouts. The only thing he was concerned was when that self-proclaimed root doctor, Jiatai, would come and seek trouble.

The Vulture's capabilities were too powerful, and he felt asphyxiated with the pressure and stress.

But they didn't let him off the hook just once. They bore no murderous intent when they had the absolute upper hand, there must be some unknown reason.

"Brother, it's all on you to take care of the person from the Vulture," Yurijie walked over and whispered. Witnessing the training for the past few days, she had attempted to catch up on brother's progress but unfortunately, she possessed no special abilities. She couldn't keep up with this explosive type of improvement. She could only back down and watch at the sidelines.

"Relax," Yuria regained confidence. "Comparing our lower limit, he can't possibly win!" He clenched his fist.

"..."

Garen, Nine-Tailed Fox and Kong Xinxue could do nothing about it. Garen's seemingly joking combat ideology has been deeply embedded into Yuria's heart and now it was to see if the original script would continue to roll on.

******

After the special training, everything resumed to normal.

Yuria and his sister remained in Lily of the Valley, without leaving again.

Garen and Kong Xinxue 'traveled' back home, reuniting with the transmigrators to discuss the plot's current trend.

Garen managed to pick up intel about the Four Great Cornerstone from these people.

Savior, Mind Reader, Illusionist, Slayer.

Four main characters forever transmigrating and rebirthing. They would naturally experience overlapping lives each time, whether against each other or as alliances. There was some sort of magnetic force between them, attacking them together.

A group of people gathered in Nine-Tailed Fox's seaside villa to discuss the upcoming strategy.

"So you're saying that the remaining three Great Cornerstones have yet to appear. The only one we can confirm is Yuria, the Savior?" The female cop, Li Hua asked. She has a quick temper and was proficient in the snatching type of close combat wushu. She could be considered an expert but compared to the Vulture... her capabilities were similar to Silver, perhaps inferior. However, combat was not her strongest but rather her marksmanship. It was said to be revered of.

"What about Yong He? What do you think?" Uncle Technician looked at Nine-Tailed Fox.

Garen was sitting on the side and it was the first time he heard someone calling Nine-Tailed Fox Yong He. This seemed to be her other formal name.

"That's easy..." Nine-Tailed Fox beamed, "Why don't we just help Savior? We lend our powers to him and the more he's powerful, the safer we are."

"Getting involved in this and following the original plot, many who lent their power to Savior have died. Is it really a good idea?" The young lady with the ginger hair, Yuan Xing, frowned. She was a mature uncle in the past life. The steadiness characteristics of the uncle and the background of the beautiful young lady mixed together gave a peculiar paradox.

"Or I'll arrange everyone to go to other countries by sea to avoid the disaster." Her family has an abundant financial resource in this life, charting the top hundred in the world. Arranging this matter would be a cinch.

"What about my pigs?" Xu Yuan, a brunette beauty, curled her lips, "I have just invested three hundred million in the new farm."

"Pigs pigs pigs! Is there anything in your brain other than pigs?" Yuan Xing smacked her.

"But..."

"No buts! I will compensate you on your pigs," Yuan Xing was annoyed.

"Now the problem is to first ascertain when the remaining Four Great Cornerstones are arriving. Although we, as transmigrators, are not within the control range of the Four Great Cornerstones' ability and will not be manipulated by the Mind Reader and Illusionist but on the contrary, this sort of attribute would definitely trigger their attention and get them alerted," Nine-Tailed Fox explained calmly.

"Everybody pitch in, how do we help?"

"I will cover the expenses," Yuan Xing flung her arm in generosity. "A budget of fifty billion at the very least!"

"I will take care of the firearms and provide an emergency special task force of around two hundred manpower. They are military elites discharged from various nations! They can handle a few T-Rex sorts of experts without any problems!" Nine-Tailed Fox was confident.

"I can handle the logistics of biochemical drugs," Pan Pan said. Seeing Garen's unwitting eyes, he smiled. "Although I am a chef, I have researched a lifetime of biochemical and medicinal my past life. I was a top academician hired by the country. After all, I have lived a few generations and can't simply do without any capability."

"I'll be in charge of intel," Kong Xinxue spoke with confidence. "I will settle any possible intel turning up on the web, as well as offense and defense."

"We will be counting on you for head-on combats, Yong He and Li Hua," Yuan Xing looked at Nine-Tailed Fox and female cop, Li Hua.

"No problem. Leave the far range to me, and close combat to Yong He," Lu Hua answered solemnly. She then glanced over at Garen.

"Come to think of it, Garen's ability is quite good. He can take on the mid-range cadres of Vulture. We need a base for our logistics and when the time comes, we'll depend on you to defend and sound the alarm."

The way they saw it, although Garen was strong, it was only limited to ordinary people. Taking on the real experts in this world would be beyond his reach.

This level of playing field could only be tackled by Nine-Tailed Fox and Li Hua as an aid.

Only with Nine-Tailed Fox in all her seriousness was the strongest existence among the transmigrators.

"Once Slayer appear, we'll depend on you, Yong He," Li Hua solemnly told Nine-Tailed Fox.

"Relax," Nine-Tailed Fox expression grew stern. "Once it's that time, I will unleash that."

"I don't have a problem here," Garen did not push it. He wasn't in the know on how strong Slayer would be, being the finest in this world and judging by Nine-Tailed's tone, she still has a stronger trump card in hiding.

The transmigrators who were present could deduce that Nine-Tailed was the strongest and holding them together. With her on the top, the others could take a seat back and relax.

"Apart from me, if Slayer were to really appear and go against us, aren't there still Demonic Lamp and Sea God in the front line? With two almighty blocking in the front, we can be at ease a little," Nine-Tailed Fox said in a low voice.

"It would be great if they could take part, but I contacted friends from the other two continents a few days ago," Yuan Xing smiled bitterly. "Demonic Lamp went to another world for a mission. He won't be able to return for another three to five years. Sea God's whereabouts are unknown. If he went to another world, then it would be troublesome."

"Demonic Lamp, Sea God?" It was the first time Garen heard of these two names.

"Mm, these two elites hit it off the best in this world," Kong Xinxue whispered explaining to Garen. "Demonic Lamp is now the vice president of Slann as well as military head minister with military power over the country. If he could dispatch the troop to encircle and annihilate then Slayer may not stand a chance no matter how strong he is. He'd have no choice but to reincarnate."

"Savage!" Garen nodded. This planet was a lot larger than the few planet worlds he had experienced. It was indeed savage to be able to make it thus far in a world with huge restrictions.

"What about Sea God?"

"The leading expert of the Manatee Clan. It's not human but a large animal being and live in the oceanic trench in the deep sea. Its body is tough beyond imagination and stretch as long as a few thousand meters, about the size of an island. One sweep of its tail could overturn a million ton-class vessels.

After it reincarnated to a manatee, it focused on cultivating martial arts. Moreover, he had once reincarnated into the world of heroes and now he has become an overlord of the entire ocean," Kong Xinxue introduced briefly.

"Not human huh... Tsk tsk," Garen's competitiveness died. With the existence of such a huge being, he in his current, tiny state could be killed with just a sneeze. He thought that he had developed fast in this lifetime but he did not think that there would be someone crazier. Those who trained to such level in this world were really true maniacs.
