An Extra’s POV Chapter 429 Memories Of The Massacre

Chapter 429 Memories Of The Massacre

The Adventurers City Massacre.

Everyone called it the work of absolute evil due to how gruesome the event was.

It all started with The Dead Zone, which was consistently regulated, displaying abnormal signs.

One or two Monsters would escape from the forest and attempt attacking the City. This happened within the interval of days, so while it was worrisome, it wasn’t particularly a threat worth taking very seriously.

Every time the Monsters tried to assault the City, they were killed. Usually, there would be no casualty. However, in the worst case, a few people would be injured.

Still, no one expected it to lead to a tragedy; especially since it was only a few months after the Grand Calamity Class Dungeon Incident, and people were still healing.

There were plans to launch a full-sweep on the Dead Zone at the end of the year, but that was still months away.

They still had time… or so they thought.

No one expected the carnage that came next—the huge influx of Monsters that defied human explanation.

The City was swarming with C-Tier Monsters. Several B-Tier Monsters also made their appearance, and finally… the A-Tier monstrosities showed up as well.

They surrounded the city, exhibiting overtly intelligent behavior that Monsters weren’t known for. Everyone was trapped, almost as if the entire city was in a birdcage.

There was no escape.

The only reason there were survivors was because the Otherworlders showed up when they did.

This was their debut mission, and they were welcome with the horrid sight of carnage—a sight they would eventually get used to once they reached the front lines.

The Otherworlders were able to defeat the Monsters after a ton of effort, and while the city suffered a great loss that day, it wasn’t completely wiped out.

And then, once the dust settled… the same question echoed in everyone’s mind.

“Who could have done this?”

The answer was unanimous. Everyone chose the most likely suspects; two strange Adventurers who arrived in the city about a day after the first attack from the Dead Zone.

They registered as Adventurers and easily passed the Heroic Rank Test. They also displayed a lot of suspicious activities—especially in relation to the Dead Zone.

No one knew who they really were, and since their arrival coincided with the destruction of the city, blaming them was the only natural conclusion.

What cemented the case was the fact that, after the massacre, they completely vanished.

No one found their corpse, which meant they were still alive somewhere. Without a doubt, they were the ones involved in that incident.

But why…?

Why would anyone do such a wicked thing to their fellow man?

Well… what if they weren’t human, to begin with? It was only until later that Adonis and his allies discovered the existence of something that they never thought was possible.

—Dragon Spies!

After this discovery, years after the Massacre Incident, the actions of Jet and Lux suddenly made sense.

They were both Dragon Spies.

That would explain their absurd strength, their malevolent decisions, and the fact that they couldn’t be found after causing such tragedy.

‘And now… they’re here!’ Adonis thought to himself, his deep frown impossible to hide.

The two despicable vermin that ruined so many lives had come to wreak havoc, once again. Merely thinking about it caused heat to rise in Adonis’ chest.

Still, something wasn’t right.

‘They’re early. Too early…’

The Grand Calamity Dungeon Conquest hadn’t even started yet, so what were doing in the City so early?

‘Damnit! Is this the Dragonfly effect again?’ Adonis thought to himself. ‘I thought, at the very least, the Adventurers City wouldn’t be affected by anything yet.’

It seemed his hopes had been dashed before he even realized it. nove(l)bi(n.)com

Despite all the discrepancies, however, core facts remained the same. The people from the previous timeline were the same in this timeline.

‘Adam was the mastermind, right? And for the most part my classmates are how I remember them.’

Of course, there were a few exceptions to the rule.

One of them was with Billy being a far more depraved person than he appeared; even in the past.

‘Then there’s Rey, who’s considerably a lot weaker than he was back then.’

Thankfully, Rey had been making a lot of improvements and that was very exciting to see. If things went well, it was indeed possible for him to attain his prime.

‘I hope that happens. After all, it’s my fault that he isn’t at that point now…’

For Adonis to rise as a Hero, most people had to take the back seat in popularity. As such, it was likely that Rey’s Karma Points were somehow lower due to his interference.

‘I’m a bit too anxious to ask him, but wasn’t his Karma Point around 60 in the past?’

It must have really gone down if he ended up with the cards he ended up being dealt with at the start.

‘I-In any case…’ Adonis took his mind off Rey and focused on the primary issue at hand.

—Jet and Lux!

‘How do I deal with them?’ A bead of sweat fell from his face.

He didn’t know how strong they were, so if he charged in recklessly, there was a chance that he could end up stirring the hornet’s nest.

‘I’ve grown to the point where I’m confident in my ability to handle any Dragon Commander by myself.’ His thoughts trailed.

Unfortunately, if a Dragon General or Dragon Lord showed up, things would get astronomically more difficult.

‘Depending on compatibility, I could end up trading a few blows with a Dragon General… even if victory is not guaranteed.’

However, Adonis knew… when it came to a Dragon Lord, it was impossible for him to win.

Not with how he currently was.

‘If my opponents are Dragon Generals who are stronger than I am, then it’ll be overkill for me to fight two.’

He never saw Jet and Luxin the past, so he couldn’t have even seen them in action.

As such, Adonis was left in the dark once again.

‘What… what should I do?!’
