Chapter 167 - Monster Classification

"Then you should pick one or two spears first." He smiled and extended his hand to the left as if telling Theo the direction of the shelves.

Theo nodded with a serious expression and walked to the shelves, finding a bunch of Champion Rank Weapons. He looked at each price tag and learned that Champion Rank Spears were around 100,000 to 400,000.

He stumbled upon a red-colored spear. The handle was black and there seemed to be a gold connector between the handle and the red blade that made the whole spear appear more elegant.

When he lowered his vision, he knew this spear was the one.

"250,000 Zils and if I get another one, I think I can afford to pay 500,000 Zils in two months," muttered Theo as he grabbed the spear while searching another one for his clone.

The second one had a similar appearance to that of the first spear, but instead of black, the handle was orange with red and gold patterns. The length and other things were the same, so he didn't need to try it.

At the same time, he could feel that the spear was relatively heavier than his Elite Rank Spears. He didn't care about it since he had a month to get used to it.

He carried the spear to the counter and presented it to Nart.

"Hmm… Nice choice, well, you can't get a bad choice since all the weapons here are good choices." Nart chuckled and continued, "Anyway, the total is 490,000 Zils. I will be expecting the payment from you two months from now."

"I understand."

He should have finished his objectives in this store, but Theo didn't leave immediately. Instead, he looked at Nart with a serious expression as the latter found something wrong with him.

"Do you want to say something?"

"Actually, do you know anything about the reason behind the horde?"

Nart slightly raised his eyebrows as if a thought appeared in his mind. He waited for a while before saying, "There are a few reasons for a horde. It's not about provoking the monsters around since you won't get so many monsters to chase you at once… But it's about provoking the leader of the monsters."

"The leader?" Theo narrowed his eyes.

"Yes. I'm sure you know there is a difference between Normal Monster and Rare Monster, right?"

Theo nodded. "Rare Monsters are stronger than the normal ones and have certain characteristics like they are viewed as a leader… Does that mean there is a leader around here?"

Nart shook his head. "There are two types of monster classifications. The first type is the rank of the monsters: Normal, Elite, Champion, Hero, Supreme, Mythical, and God. These are the seven ranks that we, humans, have too.

"However, there is another classification known as the class of the monsters. Instead of those seven, there are only five classes for monsters with three of them only appearing around this area. They are Normal Class, Rare Class, and General Class Monster.

"To put it simply, Normal Class Monsters are the same as pawns. They are everywhere just like normal hunters around us. Above them are Rare Class Monsters. As the name implies, they're a rare variety of monsters… Most of them are usually leading a small pack or being aloof.

"If a Rare Class Monster mutates even more, they will reach General Class. This General Class has the ability to command all kinds of monsters. If you take our own world as an example, Normal Class is like our Normal Hunter. Rare Class Monster is similar to that of a Leader of a small group. As for General Class Monster… You can say it's me or my previous position that is… A leader of a big family."

Theo closed his eyes and nodded. "And there are two more classes above them… What are they?"

"King Class and World Class. You can say King Class is equivalent to a country while World Class is equivalent to the UN. I won't explain too much in detail since you will receive the lecture in your class sooner or later. World Class Monster was the one preventing humanity from expanding its territory and launching the satellite to make the whole exploration easier.

"But don't worry, in our country, there is only one King Class and that monster is hiding in a far away place even if you go to our other gate, which has relatively higher level monsters compared to this gate. Anyway, I can feel a General Class Monster in this area and the army seems to have dispatched someone at the same level to take care of it, so don't worry and keep hunting those monsters.

"I believe… It's Unending Grass Field's General Class Monster."

"Huh?" Theo narrowed his eyes, never expecting to hear that name from his mouth.

"It seems you know about this field but don't know about the secret…" Nart smirked. "Unending Grass Field can attract so many monsters due to the General Class Monster. I can't explain much, but you can say there's a secret entrance to enter the real Unending Grass Field where Champion Rank and Hero Rank monsters reside, including the General Class Monster… If I'm not wrong, that monster level almost reaches 500… Hmm, I don't know much."

Nart shrugged. "Either way, nothing will go wrong as long as I'm here. Just go and hunt right now, I won't accompany you anymore."

Theo's eyebrows twitched as he nodded helplessly. "I understand. Thank you for the information."

"Good." He nodded and waved his hand. "Thank you for your patronage."

Theo walked quietly to the outside before making his way to the wall again. People started looking at Theo as someone who actually brought two spears behind his back and two on his hands. His appearance was weird, but all of them just whispered to each other, talking about it without correcting Theo or something since he was just a stranger.

Theo also didn't care about them and entered the elevator, quickly making his way to his teammate. As soon as he reached the top wall, he already knew where to go since he shared his vision with the clone.

He muttered with a smile. "Time to hunt… I hope I can witness a great battle between the army and the General Class Monster."
