The Over-Break System

'THREE!' Milo suddenly yelled and shot forward so fast and with so much force that the tree he was standing on instantly exploded into woodchips.

In a flash, Milo's entire body slammed into the stunned Stag, which had avoided being hit by a bolt yet lost focus. The force of the impact shattered all four legs of the creature, and the result was Milo sprawled out on the ground, rolling, while the oldest Stag emitted a pained scream similar to an Elk.

'GO ALL OUT, MILO; WE ONLY HAVE A FEW MINUTES!' Leaping down from her tree, Gabby began unleashing one attack after another, mixing up Affinity Skills and Crossbow shots.

Gabby's eyes flicked to the virtual display, indicating only 11 minutes remained in the Trial, so she went into overdrive. Her first objective was to kill off as many of the lower Tiered Stags as possible, which was what she did.

While Milo and the injured Stag were attempting to get back to their feet, Gabby rushed up to the young BoscageStags and, one by one planted her crossbows against their temples before releasing a bolt directly through their brains, instantly killing them.

After ignoring the notifications, Gabby leaped up and flipped through the air before landing on a Tier-3 Stag that was still experiencing the effects of her [Psy-Shock]. Knowing there wasn't much time left before her Skill's effects wore off, Gabby extended both daggers from her Huntress Tools and buried them into each side of the creature's skull without showing remorse for her actions.

-You have successfully tracked and killed a Mid-Tier-3 Adult BoscageStag and have received five Trial Points.-

-Current Trial Point Tally, 17/30.-

Within less than a second, Gabby had single-handedly wiped out five of the Stags before moving on to the sixth.

Meanwhile, during the time Gabby was taking down another Stag, Milo had gotten back to his feet, shook his massive head to clear the static noise ringing in his ears, and jumped on top of the struggling Stag with broken legs.

Unluckily for him, however, the instant the large cat's feet left the ground, an array of Sharply pointed antlers slammed into his right shoulder shield, flinging him through the air and causing him to release a loud surprised roar.

'MILO!' Gabby yelled through their telepathic link but never stopped moving to slaughter the remaining Stags.

'Owie, that dumb jerk, and his stoopid horns hurt; I am ok, Mama. Don't worry; I'll handle that deer!' Hoping back to his feet and bolting toward the injured Stag, Milo shook his body and responded.

'Be careful, you silly kitty. Try and keep it pinned down, and don't worry about going for the kill!' Rolling her eyes and realizing that Milo's armor had protected him as intended, Gabby swiftly killed off several of the remaining Stags, leaving only two stunned and the injured Tier-4.

-You have successfully tracked and killed five Mid-Tier-3 Adult BoscageStags and have received 25 Trial Points.-

-Current Trial Point Tally, 42/30.-

'Yes, Mama,' Milo replied as he arrived in front of the downed Stag, now covered in a multitude of strange blue and green colored glowing vines.

Unleashing several ranged attacks, Milo focused solely on the Beast's broken joints and bones after stomping the ground and creating a shockwave to disperse the vines growing up and around the Stag's broken legs.

After spending a lot of time training with his Mama's boyfriend, Milo excelled at Terra Affinity Skills; as a result, he launched hundreds of thin stone spikes at his opponent as he circled him without batting an eyelash.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!

The impact noises echoed through the forest as, in rapid succession, hundreds of heavy spikes hit the Stag, sending ripples through its body and effectively negating its efforts to heal itself by stacking up damage.

For a time, the only sounds prevalent in the clearing and surrounding forest were profound explosive impacts, pained Elk cries, and a weird huffing sound emitted by Milo as he taunted the injured Beast.

That is until the final Adult Stag fell dead, and Gabby directed her attention to the battle between Milo and the last yet strongest Stag. Seeing how well her kitten was suppressing the full-grown Tier-4 Beast, Gabby couldn't help but smirk as she channeled a large amount of Mana into her gauntlets, swapped to the crossbows, and unleashed a volley of bolts into the Stag's body.

This ranged one-sided battle went on until there was only a single minute left in the Timer, at which point Gabby rushed in and delivered the final blow, severing the mutilated Beast's head in a single slash of her dagger.

-You have successfully tracked and killed an Early Tier-4 Elder BoscageStag and have received 7 Trial Points.-

-Current Trial Point Tally, 59/30.-

Due to exhaustion from the fight and overusing Mana, Gabby slumped beside Milo and rubbed him behind his ear. Her eyes moved to the Notification floating in her vision.

"Only 40 seconds left, Milo; remember, although I will be in a lot of pain thanks to the Tier-3 Evolution, I will be fine, so don't panic or interfere, ok?"

'I know Mama, you and Meanie Cyn gave me a long talk about it yesterday, remember? I am still worried, be strong, Mama, and I will be waiting.'

"Mhm," Closing her eyes, Gabby was only slightly sad about not having reached 60 points, doubling the necessary passing score. Still, that thought soon evaporated as the Notification indicating she had passed popped up, and her vision turned a mixture of red and white due to the Violent and Extreme pain.

POV: Selene

-Please choose the Difficulty Setting you wish to partake in. *Reminder, a higher Difficulty Setting will result in better Rewards.-

-Difficulties below expert will be removed since you have a Bloodline.-

-Expert, Master, Grandmaster.-

Stretching her body as Tobs took over and read aloud the notifications, Selene began putting on all her equipment, a cross between Cynrik/Gabby's and the heavy plate armor expected from Brance.

Soon, Selene was decked out in form-fitting, lightweight jointed plate armor with an open-faced helmet adorned with two sharp wings on either side of her head. On her right arm was a curved tower shield as big as her body, and in her left hand was an extremely sharp and long spear that, when placed on the ground, was half a meter taller than her.

Although the spear itself wasn't overly flashy, a single look could tell it was anything but a simple weapon. Her equipment, like every other Member of MyrkLys, was an exclusive Set that gave added benefits if every piece was worn.

-MyrkLys Valkyrie Set: Epic Ranked.-

-1 piece: 25% buff to Attack Speed.-

-3 pieces: 25% buff to Crit Rate.-

-5 pieces: 25% buff to Physical and Metaphysical Damage resistance.-

-7 pieces: 50% buff to Vitality, Strength, and Dexterity.-

Apart from the Set boost, each piece increased her stats differently. The shield not only raised her defense but also added a reflective damage passive skill. Her spear gave increased attack speed and crit rate. The armored top, bottoms, and boots all increased movement speed and defense turning Selene into a mobile wall with almost every attack guaranteed to be a critical hit.

The armored gauntlets covering her from finger to shoulder aided in attack speed, and last but not least, her helmet gave Selene increased long-distance vision and allowed her to absorb Mana quicker.

Best of all, even though she was covered from head to toe in lightweight plate armor, it was form-fitting enough to show off her curvacious body despite being a deep shade of matte black.

Once kitted out and sure everything fits appropriately, Selene stored her Spear on her back in a Beasthide holster and latched her shield onto the hooks resting below her shoulder blades, covering the weapon and protecting her back at the same time.

"Alright, there are only three difficulties to choose from, and the logical choice would be the middle one, Master. I feel that if I decide Grandmaster, my ass will get cooked in this war in no time." Selene thought aloud as she raised her hand and clicked Master.
