Two incoming enemy Transcendents... The Zone almost about to break... More than three hours inside…. What actually is happening there?

"Jayna, let's stop them first."

If the Incarnation was in any danger, they wouldn't have called reinforcements. Most likely, there's an intense fight going on inside that Zone.

Does a Rank 2 Transcendent from the Dark World arrive? No. The World's Will would've notified us about it.

Her Incarnation was most likely weakened to the point that even Rank 1 Transcendents could go toe to toe against her.

"I will be using this then."

Jayna pulled out the black pouch and from inside, took out the Vermillion Bolt. Since she's still a novice at using a bow, she stopped the miniature Spirit Ocean and stabilized herself to aim at the incoming enemies.

I'm also a novice when it comes to the bow. However, the System always generated a Basic Mastery whenever I put my hands on an unlisted Weapon. If I expand that part, I have a lot with Level 1 Basic Mastery.

Well, Jayna's form could be said to have already achieved the basics. The only problem at the moment was her aim.

The power of the bow isn't that reliant on the strength of the pull and the flexibility of the bow but they could also make a difference.

Most Output Enhancing Equipment draw on one's energy is voluntary, it's up to the wielder whether he wants to let his energy run through it or not. However, the Vermillion Bolt is different, the draw on Energy is compulsory to create an Energy Arrow. Afterwards, it's already up to the wielder whether he wanted to put in more Energy or any other enhancements before the release.

In Jayna's case, this is her first time shooting one. As she pulled on the bowstring of the Vermillion Bird, the draw of Flux Energy from her body started.

Just like what happened earlier when the guard leader pulled it, an arrow made of her own Energy was conjured. If she shot it like that, its power was already comparable to one enhanced attack of a Transcendent.

"If you're having a hard time aiming, try to think that it's just one of your vines. Also, don't overdraw the Energy input."

Her vines' movements could be controlled by her and it always hits unless her target dodged it. Though a bit different, she could probably apply the same principle to that.

"I understand."

Jayna nodded.

After inhaling and exhaling once, the conjured Energy Arrow grew in intensity as more Flux Energy poured into it. After Flux Energy, the reddish-green hue of her Earthfire started to coat the Energy Arrow raising its pressure to a new high.

If she's the one who shot an arrow to my clone earlier, surely, it would be destroyed by her.

The two dots that were approaching the Dark World Zone finally noticed us and slowed down. One of them is the Dark Soldier who blocked me before and the other one is a new face but from her appearance fully-clad in red and black armor, she's from the same tribe. Unlike the Dark Soldier Transcendent, she's carrying a normal-size sword whose hilt had something like a ruby gemstone.

Whoosh!

When Jayna judged that they entered the optimal distance and speed. The arrow she was holding back was promptly released. At first, the arrow moved so slowly but when the Earthfire burst from its tail, it instantly gained its speed and momentum. Before the two could properly gauge the attack coming towards them, it became too late to dodge.

"Block it, Nepula!"

The Dark Soldier held up his greatsword while enhancing it with his own Dark Energy to try and resist the incoming Energy Arrow.

Though the female Dark Soldier heeded his instruction and lifted her sword, she prepared for a counterattack instead.

Unlike the normal black-color of Dark Energy we already got used to, her sword glowed in ruby-red and gave off a dazzling glow as it tried to rival Jayna's Earthfire.

She brandished her sword and sent a cross-slash to meet the arrow head-on.

However, because Jayna's arrow was charged even before they approached, the hastily made counterattack from the female Dark Soldier lost against it.

"I told you to block!"

The Dark Soldier Transcendent scolded his companion. He dashed forward and pushed the female Dark Soldier backwards and received the Energy Arrow with his body.

Though he tried to resist it by pouring in more Dark Energy, it was proven futile as the Arrow's force destroyed his defense hitting him squarely on his chest breaking his thick armor as the Energy Arrow penetrated his body and exited from his back.

"Nice shot, Jayna."

I praised and patted her shoulder.

She deserved the praise. I don't know what that guy was thinking to take the Arrow all by himself. Is she someone special to him? Either way that's one down. Even if he didn't die from it, given that he took it with only

"Eh? I didn't think it would be this powerful."

Jayna muttered in surprise. It's her first time using an Output Enhancing Equipment after all. That staff she was using was just an enhanced equipment from her world. It's still primitive compared to a Powergen which was categorized as one or the equipment from this world that were all supported by something that could enhance their Energy Output.

"Yes. We'll never know the difference until we used one. Keep on practicing using that in the future. Not only can you hit those from a distance, but you could also use that to completely overwhelm an opponent."

After saying that, I activated Bedevilled Outburst and started shooting out the Energy Explosion Projectiles towards the female Dark Soldier.

She was shaken that her careless move made her companion suffer but she instantly got herself together when her Transcendental Instinct warned her about the incoming Energy Explosion Projectiles.

The same as earlier, she prepared her gemstone-adorned sword and sent multiple slashes to block the projectiles before diving down to catch seriously injured Dark Soldier.

"I'm sorry. I will listen to you next time."

With remorse in her voice, the female Dark Soldier took out a vial of liquid.

Upon seeing that, it's easy to guess that it's some kind of potion for them. That's why, before she could pour it to the Dark Soldier's mouth, I shot an Aether Bullet aimed at it.

"Can you not create some kind of drama there? There won't be next time. Let me send him off."

"Y-you! Aren't you two a Noxian?!"

With rage in her voice, she glared at me beneath the helm that she was wearing which almost covered her whole face.

I thought she would attack to vent that rage but she could still think rationally. Before my Flourishing Steps activated completely to close our distance, the female Dark Soldier circulated her Dark Energy and put up a ruby-red barrier before dashing back from whence they came from.

Like burning her Energy to its limit, she focused on retreating with the injured Dark Soldier in her arms. At each burst of her Dark Energy, she would create a barrier to bar our way to chase after her.

"Should we chase after her?"

Jayna who flew over to my side asked, her colorful vines were already conjured and her miniature Spirit Ocean completely covered with her Haste spell.

"It's a bit risky. That direction is to the Noxian Capital, we might get ambushed instead. Let's go in and check on the World's Will's Incarnation."

I guess we still got something from this brief clash. The reinforcements of whoever's inside that Zone were hindered even before they could act as one. And one of them was even seriously injured as he heroically took an arrow for his companion. I guess, he passed as a man.

[You've entered a special zone. Dark World Zone 3B]

[This zone is cut off from the World's Source Energy.]

[The existing Source Energy inside this zone is Level 2 Dark Energy.]

[You aren't adapted to the Level 2 Dark Energy]

[Flux Energy Automatic Energy Conversion can be activated]

[Rate of Conversion: 1 unit of Dark Energy = 3 units of Flux Energy]

[Conversion Debuff: -15% Strength and Endurance]

[This zone is about to break. Durability Remaining: 24%]

As soon as we entered the Zone, an almost similar series of notifications appeared except for the different name of the zone as well as the new line at the end.

This Zone was really about to break and it's probably not caused by the destruction of the Zonemaker but because of the chaotic battle that's currently happening inside.

"That…"

Jayna pointed above with her words stuck on her throat. Maybe because of awe or another case of her curiosity, her eyes shined as she watched the current battle above this Dark World Zone.

The silver-haired Incarnation of the World's Will was locked in combat against two Transcendents, her silvery robes were almost tattered however the most glaring detail are the chains restricting her body.

Looking closely, it's a chain of solidified Energy and its effect was truly what I guessed. It's limiting her strength to that of a Rank 1 Transcendent.

"You keep on struggling to close these Zones but don't you see that we're already unstoppable? Why don't you be a good World's Will and prostrate yourself to ours? Maybe you could still keep this Incarnation of yours and you will still be given a part of our world to manage by yourself."

One of the Transcendent fighting against her said as he delivered another attack using his fist.
