My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

Chapter 143 Beyond the Earth shakers

Out on the hunt, Jake's team were struggling against the advanced tier beasts. They were no teams but Jake decided to go away from the rest of the students so there won't be any sort of argument or something.

Out on where they were hunting, they encountered the beasts known as the Earth shakers. Beast that could manipulate the Earth to avoid strikes and they could also burrow themselves into the ground and pop out wherever they want.

Jake's friends were all struggling badly against the beasts getting injuries here and there and their strikes missing because of their Earth manipulation.

After finishing off his own beast, Jake decided to help by activating the Guild skill giving all the Guild members of his Guild a 5 percent increase in strength and defense.

Seeing the system screen appear in front of them all, they knew that Jake had just helped them and they all smiled as they went on to ravage the grounds.

'I wanted to stay out of this and let them do their own thing in trying to defeat the beasts but I was worried seeing them get injured like that.'

'This hunt would have helped them focus on how to counter the beasts quick movements just like the werewolves. But I just want to get this over and done with.' Jake thought as he stood down from helping Peter and watched how he would fare along with the remaining members of his guild.

Immediately Peter had seen the system message appear, he quickly smiled and looked for the beast that was now heading for him with full speed while using the earth to make it move faster towards Peter.

Instead of charging in aggressively, Peter decided to calmly stand and watch the beast come at him. Then when the beast was almost close, it quickly burrowed into the ground and popped out in front of Peter.

It would have startled some people and make them do a mistake but Peter didn't flinch, rather he waited for the beast to plunge its tusks into his shoulder.

That strangely enough, it didn't pierce into his skin like before then Peter quickly wacked the beast on its head with his axe therefore slicing the head off easily.

Jake who had been watching, was certainly impressed by that. Without any help whatsoever from anybody, only with the help of the system, Peter managed to defeat an advanced tier beast which was impressive.

Jake decided to see how the others were faring. With Jake and Peter killing one beast each, it remained two more on the grounds.

Jack and Alex were working together to take down one while Kate who was at the back shooting arrows to support Sophia, Cindy and Emily that were trying to take down the last one.

Alex swung his sword quickly than ever before but the beast narrowly avoided it by manipulating the Earth to get away.

But it couldn't get away from Jack who was behind the beast with a swing of his sword.

The sword crashed on the beast with so much force and Qi that it divided the beast into two.

"Phew. That was hard work." Alex said wiping a strand of sweat off his face as he went ahead to extract the crystals.

The girls were having a little bit more trouble. Sophia had swung her sword at the beast but it managed to get away avoiding it.

While Emily had also quickly come in with a swing from above but the beast had burrowed itself into the ground avoiding it then it popped out in front of Cindy and stabbed her with its trunks in her tigh.

Experience more on empire

Before the others could come help her, the beast had burrowed itself into the ground again.

"Darn it! This beast is too tricky to deal with. We need to find a way to keep it still and above the ground." Sophia said looking around trying to spot where the beast would pop out of next.

The beast finally popped out of the ground behind Kate. She had heard the rumblings and quickly turned around to see the beast's trunks heading towards her face.

Kate was about to get stabbed and she knew that she was slow in reacting and she was possibly the weakest out of them but that all changed when she received a message in front of her and system screen appeared.

{Guild skill overdrive has been activated; all guild members have gotten a 5% increase in strength and defense}

Feeling a surge of energy course through her, Kate quickly grabbed her bow.

"I'm not so weak anymore thanks to Jake!" She shouted as she wacked the beast on its trunks hard that it went crashing down on the ground hard.

Emily along with Sophia had quickly come in and seeing the beast trying to stand, they had quickly acted by charging towards the beast and together, they coated their swords with Qi making the sword have a little bit of shine to it because of the amount that they were using in the sword.

And together, they smashed their swords on the beast's head cleanly slicing it off and also slicing part of the ground off with specks of dust spread all over around them.

'This…' Emily thought as she stood upright and looked at her hand while clenching it in and out.

'This amount of power, I haven't felt this before. I know that Sophia helped take the beast down but still, this amount of raw power, it's all possible because of joining that guy's so-called guild. How can someone have this amount of power?' Emily thought as she looked at Jake casually standing around with his hands folded.

'It's good I didn't go against him. Someone who is strong enough to chase a Beta werewolf away, is worth being close to.' Emily thought as she helped Sophia extract the crystal core from the beast.

Everybody had now finished extracting the crystal core from the killed beast around them and they now stood in the centre planning what to do next.

"Thanks bro for helping out back there." Peter said as he gently patted Jake on his back.

"Yeah Jake, thank you." Alex, Kate and Emily all said at once which confused the rest of them.

"I get the reason Peter was thanking Jake, because he had helped him but why are you all thanking him?" Jack asked.

They now looked at each other realizing their little slip up and now, they were thinking of how to cover it up.

That was when Jake spoke up. "I think we should keep on hunting, there's still time." Jake said as he wanted to head in a direction when he looked at the rest.

"Those crystals, give them to me, I will keep them safe. Trust me I'm…" Jake wanted to say but he was interrupted by Sophia who held all the crystals earlier.

"We trust you with all our lives. Right guys?" Sophia asked and everybody nodded together then Sophia handed the crystals over to Jake.

Jake quickly used the Inventory to keep the crystals in his system and in the process, the crystals disappeared in front of all their faces.

'This strange power Jake has, how did he get it? It always amazes me when he uses it.' Jack thought as they were now following Jake towards another direction.

"I just hope we don't encounter those Earth beasts again." Emily said.

Little did they know that they were going to encounter something more dangerous.
