《Night Ranger》Chapter 525. Encounter
Advertisement
The fight in the wilderness was slowly coming to an end.
That Leopard couldn't escape from the Adjudicators' encirclement.
After its last struggling attack failed, the Leopard roared and instantly disappeared.
The Cleric sneered, raised his hand and a light green light suddenly shrouded the ground around him!
Divine Spell – Dream Cage!
The Leopard suddenly fell from the sky.
A Paladin ruthlessly rushed over, the longsword in his hand ruthlessly slashing down.
No blood splashed, but a Hunter Imprint gradually appeared, merging with that man's palm.
"Good, let's keep gathering imprints."
The Cleric faintly smiled, "Oh right, contact Sir Swift."
"Tell him that the person they have been looking for had already been found and is now going west."
The other Shrine Paladins froze but didn't hesitate. One of them used a specific method of the Dream Shrine to carry out the Cleric's order.
Only Griffin's expression suddenly changed.
The Cleric looked at the Paladin with a smile that didn't look like a smile, "Seems like you don't have enough faith toward our shrine."
"That man is your friend?"
Griffin clenched his fist, before loosening it again.
He closed his eyes and coldly said, "I was only tasked to help you with this mission. After going through the ritual, you would remove Molly's curse for me, this was our deal. I don't need to explain anything else."
The Cleric laughed, "You are right."
He then shrugged, "It's just that some matters are bound to change."
"I heard this kid offended 1st Divine Servant Ambella, thus, the Dream Shrine would do everything possible to find him as long as he is alive in the Universe."
"He will then die."
After saying that, the Cleric's voice turned murderous.
"Naturally, this isn't our mission, it's Dream Guardian Swift and Dream Guardian Wayn's task. We only need to properly take care of our matter."

The Cleric had a bright smile on his face.
He waved his hand and nodded at Griffin, "Let's go, future Dream Paladin."
Griffin's eyes twitched, and he took a deep breath with a helpless expression.
...
In the west was a hilly area.
Marvin kept his Stealth activated, this was a very good habit.
In any case, his current skillset allowed him to keep his Stealth while quickly moving forward. The Autumn Hunting Ground was a very dangerous place. Sometimes, even Stealth wouldn't guarantee that others would be unable to discover you.
Marvin met two monsters on the way.
But he didn't make a move.
Based on his Perception, these two monsters were shockingly fierce.
They didn't have Legend characteristics, but their bodies actually exceeded the limits of ordinary Legend Monsters.
Adding the fact that Marvin didn't know their abilities, he didn't dare act blindly.
The Dream Shrine group needed a team of Adjudicators to handle a beast with an imprint. Marvin's heart sank a bit.
He intended to observe these beasts' habits before making a move.
This was his usual strategy in the game, but he hadn't put it to use for a while.
After transmigrating, his experience had been his greatest advantage, and it had been reflected by his quick leveling speed.
By making use of information, Marvin was able to overcome many difficult challenges.
But in this territory, his advantage was simply erased.
Marvin found that this Autumn Hunting Ground's beasts were mostly ancient wilderness monsters described only in ancient books.
It was rumored that the world was originally filled with all kinds of lifeforms. At that time, Feinan and many secondary Planes were still wild and the Plane Will was still growing. The Races fought each other, fighting over the right to survive.
Many Gods fell in the ancient times while fighting these monsters.

Although the beasts in the Autumn Hunting Ground weren't as powerful as those genuine ancient mythical monsters, those dragged back by the Wilderness God to be raised were definitely not ordinary. Marvin had to be even more careful.
But there was an ominous feeling in his heart.
Doubts kept appearing in his mind, and he wasn't able to disperse them.
What did that Lich Bandel want to do?
What was the Dream God's plan?
There seemed to be a huge plot behind the reappearance of the Wilderness Hall. It wasn't like the previous event in the Dragon God's Tombl.
At least at that time, Marvin had the help of Professor and the others, and gained a lot of information about the Chromatic Dragons and Evil Dragons.
This time, he was drawn in by accident and felt ignorant and helpless.
That kind of feeling made him very uncomfortable.
Maybe he was already used to the advantage his otherwise wide knowledge provided.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help taking a deep breath. This helped him stay calm.
But at that time, his heart suddenly started beating fast!
A hurried voice echoed in his mind, "Flee quickly!"
Marvin was suddenly startled.
This was Paladin Griffin's voice.
Marvin raised his head and looked around, still in Stealth, and noticed two quick shadows rushing over.
Dream Guardians!
'Damn it! They still found me.'
Marvin unhesitantly sprinted away!
Although he didn't know what happened, he knew his whereabouts had been exposed.
Although Griffin had reminded him, Marvin had already entered the view of the two Dream Guardians.
Marvin knew that his Stealth wouldn't protect him from those two men's sight.
He could only pray that the two's speed wouldn't be enough to keep up with him with the Legend Laws' restriction in place.
But reality was cruel.
The two Dream Guardians' speed was not only not inferior to Marvin's, they were even slowly catching up to him. Their speed was mainly related to their blessings and it seemed like their blessings had been strengthened after entering the Hunting Ground, just enough to make a difference.
'Looks like I'm forced to fight.'
Marvin silently took out the Hunting Knife.
He stopped escaping, standing on a hill instead, waiting for his enemies to arrive.
Legendary Weapons couldn't be used, he hoped that this sharp Hunting Knife would be a surprise to them.
The two Dream Guardians quickly approached, reaching Marvin in a few seconds.
The two sides faced each other across a small river.
Swift's golden hair looked extremely bright, and he seemed somewhat tired. However, an excited expression had appeared on his face when he looked at Marvin.
"Kid, why aren't you running?"
Marvin didn't have time to open his mouth before a sweet sounding voice floated over from the distance.
"Are they your enemies?"

Welcome to the Upward Bound System, V.2
Technically abandoned. I will be reposting an updated version of the story one chapter at a time. When the System came to Earth, it changed everything. It is a grand thing used by gods and men alike. What had once been fantasy was now a reality. People believed and so that belief gave ideas the strength to manifest. "Welcome Founder of the SCP Foundation" It stirred the gods from their deathly slumbers. Stirred by an almost mechanical voice promising them new life, and followers as countless as the stars. All it asked of them was for their help. Help with what though? The old gods, the forgotten gods, and the new gods drew breath, and then made their voices heard. On a day like any other Dante was home from college watching the Presidential inauguration with his parents. Little did they know that this day would turn out to be anything but ordinary. That this was the day everything changed. Dante is not your typical MC. While he has a troubled past, he looks forward to the future. Follow Dante, his parents, and the new friends he meets along the way as they traverse this new system world. However, before they can explore this new world they must complete, the Tutorial. (Please note: This tutorial will be part of the story. Rather than a skim of the information, you will get to experience it in depth. So the tutorial will last a good while.) A much slower style of LitRpg than what you would normally find. Follow Dante and his party as they find their world taken over by the system. Welcome people of Earth to the Upward Bound System!... With the system's arrival so too does great danger come... The tools of your survival shall be granted upon you by the system... Please note, I don't own the art. Please enjoy the story, and if you don't please leave a comment and I will try to improve the story for you. This is the second version of this story, so feel free to check out the original and compare the two.
