Chapter 1561: Hunter And Prey 1

[The new race has been named, Tangu!]

[Congratulations! You are the seventeenth player who has discovered the new race!]

[You are the third player who evolved the new race!]

[The System will give you a hefty reward for contributing to finding a new race!]

[Congratulations! You have evolved from Tang to Tangu!]

[You gained 500 levels!]

[All your attributes increased by 50-Star!]

[You gained a new skill, Calamity Elemental Body!]

[You gained a new skill, Calamitification!]

[You gained a new skill, Artrus Transformation!]

[You gained a new skill, King of Calamity Domain!]

The new skills sounded good, and he got the elemental body he wanted as well. But there was a skill that he did not understand, [Calamitification]. He had no clue what it was about.

'Is that word even exist in the dictionary?'

[I think that skill is similar to your [Demonification]. Instead of turning the target into a demon, the skill turns the target into calamity.]

Having Vandir as his spirit was really helpful. The skeleton who had vast knowledge often helped him with the skill he did not know. And it sounded right that the skill could turn someone into a calamity.

After reading all the rewards, he was teleported back to the trial area. Tang Shaoyang immediately checked his surroundings with his Chaos Eyes. To his surprise, he found a group fight, and he recognized one of them, the white-haired woman, Novoa Valentine.

Novoa's party had the same colored hair, white. Three of them were men with short hair, but one of them died with a big hole in the chest. The heart was missing from the body. It was three against four, which meant their enemy took their party member with a surprise attack.

The two with the Novoa Valentine had the same silver crowns, and their value had increased. It was no longer fifty, but ninety. Three of them had ninety points on their heads.

Their enemy had one golden crown, two silver crowns, and a bronze crown. Their points were much higher than Novoa's party. The one with the golden crown was 192.5 points, the two silver crowns were 142.5 points, and the bronze crown was 122.5 points.

Tang Shaoyang came closer, and he was not careful enough to hide his presence. Novoa called her party to stay back. It confused the opponents, but they did the same. Following Novoa's gaze, they found a man watching them from the tree.

Novoa's already pale complexion turned even more pale. Even though they were on the same team in the second stage. They were not that close, in fact, they barely talked. On top of that, she was not with them when they parted. It could be said that she parted with him not in a good way. She felt like she was so unlucky to have met Tang Shaoyang in such a huge place.

While Novoa was worried, her opponent had a different thought than her. They looked at Tang Shaoyang as if Tang Shaoyang was a hidden treasure for them to pick. The shiny crown above Tang Shaoyang excited them even more.

Novoa glanced at Tang Shaoyang and then she looked at her enemy, "We should leave and let them fight that man!" She whispered to her friend that Tang Shaoyang fought the four.

If it was before, she might feel guilty for leaving Tang Shaoyang. But not anymore after witnessing how the man killed seven Administrators. It was the best decision to leave, letting the four stall time for them while they escaped.

"What!? Why?!?" Her party members did not understand Novoa's train of thought. The best scenario would be that they joined with this new man and took down the four. Then three of them worked together to fight the man with 200 points. That was the best outcome.

"Just listen to me!" Novoa raised her voice. The two reluctantly listened to her command.

"Oy!" Tang Shaoyang called out to Novoa's party members, "Leave the body if you want to leave!" He would not let them take the body. It was a God Rank material, and he needed them. Especially after using all his stocks in summoning Artrus.

"Leave the body!" Novoa pulled her party member. That meant Tang Shaoyang let them leave, and she would not miss the chance even if she had to abandon her cousin's body.

The party of four turned toward Novoa's party, realizing their prey indeed tried to escape. The man with a golden crown analyzed the situation. The best outcome was to send him and the other two to kill the three, and one of them held the man with 200 points. They got the full points, but the risk was big. They might lose their friend who tried to hold the man with 200 points.

"Let them leave and focus on him!" The man with the golden crown made the decision. He took the choice with less risk, fighting the alone man with four of them. It was less points than killing the three, but the risk was also minimal, four against one.

Unlike Novoa's party, this party listened to their leader quite well. They created a distance from Novoa's party and got closer to Tang Shaoyang. They surrounded Tang Shaoyang from four directions.

Meanwhile, Novoa escaped in the opposite direction, making sure they would not meet Tang Shaoyang anymore. She gave a glance for a moment, then shook her head.

Everything was because of her brother. If not for his brother, she might part with Tang Shaoyang in a good way like the others. Her brother was Centurion Valentine, the Administrator who came as the second reinforcement when Oby activated the emergency measure.

Her brother called her out and told her to part ways with Tang Shaoyang as soon as they arrived in the waiting area for the third stage. He told her not to make any contact with Tang Shaoyang anymore.

But Novoa could not really resent her brother for that. His reasoning was understandable because of the bounty on Tang Shaoyang's head. As well as the Nirvana Alliance's involvement with Tang Shaoyang.

If she was found around Tang Shaoyang, she would be targeted because the others would misunderstand her as Tang Shaoyang's friend.
