Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 822  3rd Catastrophe 

While the two humans and the high-level beast were leaving where Lothur and his group had acted earlier to alert their alliance, the demons were acting.

In a cave hundreds of kilometers away from where Lothur had acted, a group of four level 23 demons were on their knees before a man who had just reached them.

If one looked closely, one could see that half a dozen human and animal corpses lay unconscious nearby, as if they had been knocked down by something.

But this was no surprise to the four demons with their knees touching the ground, for the being in front of them was a powerful 3rd Catastrophe Sage!

"Senior, to what do we owe the honor?" The leader of that group of demons asked, but without looking at his superior's face.

If Lothur had been there, he would have understood why these creatures treated this ordinary-looking man.

While the Soul strength of the four demons ranged from 15,000 to 25,000 points, the one standing in front of them had a little over 40,000 Soul attribute points!

That being, with his eyes closed and his back to those lower-level demons, said. "The hybrid has begun to move. It's looking for bones that are compatible with its body. So be prepared. You and the others might become its targets very soon."

None of these demons were surprised, but they couldn't help but feel a little annoyed that one of the elders of the strongest group of demons in their tribe had moved.

These old experts only acted when it was for the good of the Demon Emperor!

If this guy was in front of them, it meant that something was wrong.

The level 24 demon, who looked like an ordinary human from a distance, just like the four, opened his eyes.

"Just be ready. I'll be watching." He said, just before he disappeared.

'Hybrid, huh? It looks like the Demon Emperor chose you. Who knew you'd be our vessel?' This guy smiled devilishly, delighted to find someone who emitted the 'scent' of the Seven Singularities.

'Good! When I find you, it will be time for the Demon Emperor to reappear in Concordia!'

...

Eight hours after the previous attack, all the high-level demon groups and their observers around Concordia began to move.

One moment, Cykad's subordinates were watching 10 groups of 5th-stage demons, and then, in a few hours, everything changed, and the 10 groups became 5.

At the same time, they were all moving at speeds beyond normal, and all the Tyrannosaurus Rex that had been observing these creatures lost sight of their targets.

Cykad's subordinates were desperate at this point, already sending communiqués to their leader without understanding what was happening.

But whatever it was, they could no longer help the dinosaur next to Lothur!

Now, their targets were missing, and as far as they could tell, they could no longer be observed by the 4th stage beings.

...

In the blink of an eye, Cykad received a dozen calls from his people.

But while he waited for his group to act again, he wasn't surprised by what his men had to warn him about.

As expected, the demons and humans reacted to their group's move!

"Sigh... Things are going to get a bit chaotic from now on." He muttered, but his concern was somewhat contained.

By now, Lothur's three women had finished absorbing their new Soul Bones, greatly increasing their strength!

Lothur wasn't far from Cykad at the moment, but he was watching them closely, seeing all the improvements they had undergone after absorbing their new bones.

Seeing how much they had improved with these new Soul Bones, Lothur clenched his fists, imagining his next advance.

He would probably pass the 45,000-point mark in his Soul attribute when he got his next bone!

Imagining how strong he would be by then, Lothur felt excited about his women's progress, even though they still had a long way to go in terms of their souls.

The three women's cultivation was so high because of their physical attributes that could also influence their soul cultivation.

They could combine their soul powers with their physical ones and be able to fight level 24 opponents now that they were like that. However, if they were caught out by a mental skill or technique, for example, that was launched by someone at level 24 with 'normal' cultivation, they would be in trouble!

With a Soul attribute of the same value as that of some level 22 Sages, they still had a lot of growing to do.

In any case, with their current bodies, they were as resilient and powerful as early 3rd Catastrophe beasts!

That in itself was very good!

Lothur then congratulated his women.

"Congratulations, Viktoria, Elke, Becca. With this breakthrough, we'll be able to work together much more safely. Now, I want you to familiarize yourselves with your new features. We'll be back on the hunt in the next 15 hours."

With that advice, the three of them took their time to get to know their new abilities a little better while Lothur, Annaliese, Cykad, and the two kittens watched.

Blood and Smoke had also improved after absorbing the souls of these two level 22 Sages. However, they had only gained 400 points in their soul attributes, nothing compared to the progress of these women.

"What will we do when they are ready? Things will be harder than before." Annaliese commented, having already overheard Cykad's conversations with his people.

"Well..."
