《Into The Portal: Monster Invasion》60- Elemental Vision!

“I knew he wasn’t the Marooner either. Just because he wore red armor, and has a lightning-based superpower, you claimed him as the real Marooner.”
“Meh, even though it wasn’t the real Marooner, we haven’t wasted our time by watching. I got to see a senior with two Strengthening Serums.”
“Two you said? How can you be so sure?”
“Didn’t you see that inhuman speed? I didn’t feel any superpower at all, so there must be two Strengthening Serums!”
“But that name is so arrogant. Does he say he will kill 1000 opponents in 1000 matches, without losing?”
“Now you said it, it seems like it.”
“He is randomly matching again, quick, maybe we can match.”
All the people watching wanted to match against the arrogant newbie to put him in his place. The name he chose on a whim sounded arrogant, and Miles was aware of it too, but he wasn’t going to evade any challenge to protect his goal. He indeed wanted to win 1000 times, but if he couldn’t, so be it. It wasn’t a big deal anyway.
Miles chose to randomly match once again and not long after a name appeared in front of him. Miles looked at the name, and his face twitched, Unbeatable. He thought his name was arrogant, but his opponent claimed to be unbeatable.
This time his opponent was to choose the arena, thus Miles waited. He could pick his weapon in the meantime, but he decided to wait first. He would choose weapons more suited to the environment to guarantee his win.
His opponent, Unbeatable, chose forest as the fighting ground. It was a lush forest with dense trees as big as buildings. Miles thought for a few seconds and chose the bow as his weapon.

Bows and guns were the most unfavorable weapons in the arena if not scanned. Most of the bow masters or gun masters would have different kinds of ammunition that could be used in any situation. Even financially broken Miles had to have at least two types of arrows, and if he had more money, he would order more for his arsenal. But since he hasn't scanned any arrows before, he would only be provided with 30 regular arrows.
Do justice to the game, the arrows were as strong as the opponent’s weapon, but still, the strategic significance of the arrows wasn’t only limited by their powers but also with their elements. But it wasn’t unsalvageable. As bow masters and gun masters were indirect fighters, the fight would usually become hide and seek. Thus, the arena had a supply point placed in the maps with different types of bows and ammunition. It was firstly because arrows were limited, secondly, a Bow or Gun Master should know how to circumvent around the enemy to arrive at the supply point.
And since the environment was favorable, Miles planned to do that. When he appeared in the dirt ground, he took action immediately. He hid behind the trees and dashed in a random direction. His first objective was to lose himself. Second, he would try to find the supply point.
He ran for more than 5 minutes when coming to a stop. He looked around and tried to identify the map. He easily drew the map in his mind as he passed through the trees, and tried to find the supply point.
As there were no fixed points for the supply point, there wasn’t much he could do but randomly search. Of course, there were some tips to follow, but none of them was a hundred percent accurate.

Since Miles had the ‘superpower’ just for that, he was at advantage. He activated his eyes, and trees thicker than barrels became transparent. Miles’s sight passed through them and he could now see what was lying behind.
But because of the distance, he still couldn’t see the supply point. Miles pondered for a bit and remembered what the AI of the Arena said. “It seems, I also have the elemental and electromagnetic vision.” Miles thought and focused on his eyes. He could imagine how heat vision, dark vision, and x-ray vision worked, because these were visions he had with the help of the machines before, thus easier for him to adapt, but he had never seen in elemental vision nor electromagnetic vision so he didn’t know what to imagine to activate the eyes.
“Electromagnetic vision is about magnetism. Since the supply point is the only metal in the forest beside me and my enemy, I should be able to pick up its location with it. Also, the elemental vision would allow me to see arrows and ammunition in the supply point, as they are mixed with elemental cores. I think elemental vision is easier to imagine.”
Miles closed his eyes and pictured colors first. Red fire, blue water, brown earth, azure wind, green wood, grey metal, purple poison, and many others. And when he opened his eyes after ten seconds, the world in front of him changed.
There was nothing material in his vision, but only colors. Myriads of colors. He looked at the ground and saw the earth in brown color. The surface was light brown and it was getting darker the deeper it went. There were thousands upon thousands of dark brownish-green tree roots chapping the ground, and those roots were connected to the lighter tone of the same color trees. It was dark green at the trunk, green at branches, and light green at leaves.
The wind was azure in color. Air had a pristine color close to pinkish-white, and Miles could see how winds are traveling in the air by following the azure color. He followed the azure color flying towards him. It was like a sword cutting the white paper, traveling through white, arriving in front of him. If Miles wanted, he could dodge the wind blowing to his face, but he let it hit him.
He felt fresh air on his face, and his hair fluttered. His clothes flapped. Miles looked at his body and saw many elements. Grey metal armor, bow, and arrows on his body. Blood traveling in his veins was dark red in color, and there were holy shiny lights in it. Is that a life force? Miles couldn’t help but look at the rest of his body, but other than that, he had no other color.
“Is it because I don’t have a superpower, thus no elemental color?” Miles thought sadly but composed immediately. “I can think about these later.”
Miles looked around himself and picked the color different from the others. Since the forest was virtual, besides two contenders there wasn’t anything else alive. Also, no other metal could be found. Miles looked deeper into the forest and saw a rainbow at the edge of the forest. “That must be the supply point.” Miles wait no longer and run to the supply point.
