Plundering in the Apocalypse

*Ding*

[Congratulations on clearing the Second floor. All the rewards will be distributed while exiting the Labrinth.]

[Please move to the next floor.]

Shin smiled and thought about the next floor, about which no information was available online. From now on, they will face many unknown dangers. They can\'t be careless.

"Okay, guys, let\'s move." No one had a problem with that as they had enough resting and this time Shin fought alone.

While they headed to the gate, leading them to the third floor. Outside the labyrinth, another commotion started as another engraving on the large door lit up. This rose people\'s curiosity and interest.

By this time, the news had made its way to many channels and was being broadcast.

[Another engraving on the door of the labyrinth is now shining golden. Just what is happening inside? Which party had entered the Labrinth?] The news anchors were making a big deal out of it. Now everyone\'s attention was on this topic.

Leonard was gritting his teeth in hatred. \'Another one is gone. Just who the hell is inside? I don\'t think anyone here was strong enough to clear that floor this early.\'

\'The only ones who can do that are probably a SSS ranker. Nah, that\'s not possible. There were only 3 SSS rank awakened humans in the entire world and I\'m sure as hell Aston city never had one.\' Leonard dismissed that thought.

\'Maybe a team of SS rank. But I don\'t think Aston city had them too. There were only S rank awakeneds and they can\'t take it down with their current strength.\'

He pulled his hair in frustration. \'What\'s the use of my last life\'s memory if I can\'t figure it out?\'

He sighed and thought. \'Let\'s just calm down and hope they don\'t clear other floors and give up.\'

Otherwise, he would lose a lot of rewards.

Shin and the others entered the third floor. This time, it was a dense forest. They may end up in trouble if the monsters on this floor sneak attack them. The dense forest will make people struggle and make it more difficult to fight monsters.

But that was not the case for Shin with his predator\'s eyes he can easily detect all the monsters near him. As he knew nothing about the monster, he had to be careful.

That was also the case for everyone else, as they were also cautious of their surroundings and patiently waited for Shin\'s commands.

Shin used his shadow veil to close in on a monster and use appraisal. Seeing Shin disappear, Simon and Elena felt as if they had seen a ghost.

\'So he wasn\'t lying about us becoming invisible? I wonder just what things he is hiding.\' Simon thought that his best friend had suddenly become very mysterious.

Shin saw a giant red-colored insect and used an appraisal of it.

[Red Mantis (Level 25-30)]

Shin checked his surroundings if there were other monsters, too. When he found out he was in the clear, he didn\'t wait and used a fireball on the monster.

As the monster got hit by the fire, his body caught flame. The monster was about to scream when another fireball was hit at its mouth, ending his life.

[You have killed a Red Mantis]

[You have gained experience]

[Plunder Activated]

[You have absorbed a new skill \'Razor Slash (E)\']

Shin was interested in this skill so he checked the description.

[Razor Slash - Can shoot sharp air cutters while swinging sharp objects.

Passive - Make all attacks with bladed weapons powerful and sharp.]

"Wow, this skill is awesome. But that means these monsters are also dangerous. This skill can be both passive and active, and with their sharp claws, I can\'t underestimate them." Shin said as he saw the claws of the burned body of the Red mantis which had turned charcoal.

Shin thought for a moment and decided to learn this new skill. It seems very helpful.

"Razor Slash." Shin felt nothing. No pain, nothing. But he knew it was working.

[You have learned a new skill \'Razor Slash (E)\']

"Good, I should rank it up," Shin said as he went back to Alice and the others.

Seeing Shin appear out of nowhere almost gave Simon a heart attack.

"You scared the hell out of me, man. What are you, a ghost?" Simon said, while calming himself.

Shin didn\'t know what to say to that comment, so he just scratched his head.

"Well, anyway." His eyes turned serious as he explained the monster and his plan. The further he explained, the more shocked others got.

Elena was looking at Shin with an admiring gaze. Shin just came up with a brilliant plan. Without experience, it\'s very difficult to make such fast decisions. This showed how genius he was.

Even Shin was confused about what was happening to him. Did the memory cubes he absorbed from those people affect him?

Well, put that thought aside, as this was not the time to think about those things. He had monsters to kill.

"So, does everyone understand what they have to do?" He asked while looking at everyone, to which they nodded their heads.

"Good, let\'s get moving."

Shin started searching for monsters with his skill.

Soon he found a colony of Red mantises. He had a devilish grin on his face as used Shadow Veil.

\'It\'s time I use that skill.\' Shin thought as it was time to start his plan.

"Mind control." He said that as he closed his eyes.

***

Elena, Alice, and Simon took their positions and were ready to start the plan. They were just waiting for Shin\'s signal.

"Any moment now," Elena whispered.

Soon all three of them had a slight headache, which calmed down soon after. They felt as if someone was trying to intrude on their mind.

A moment later, all of them heard a voice in their head.

[Can you guys hear me?]

They all smiled, listening to Shin\'s voice inside their head. Alice was over the moon, Elena blushed and Simon was just amazed.
