Vampire System- The Last Mystic Swordsman-Chapter 161 They Are Here!

3 months was a long time in the Gundam Shelter.

During this period, a lot of things changed with the most prominent being the massive power shift in the Red Zone. Like usual, a lot of gangs fell and others rose with a lot of new faces appearing.

In the struggle for survival to gain prominence here, powerful mystic warriors dying and fading to obscurity was not a new occurrence, neither was the appearance of new promising mystic warriors.

During this time, one of the major talking points of the massive power shift that occurred was the Berserk Gang who already grew to become a behemoth.

The Red Zone was the prime zone for beginners like Rex and his 2 companions when they just came to this shelter 4 months ago.

Most gangs in the extremely chaotic Red Zone had gang leaders who were just Intermediate mystic warriors, it was only a minority of gangs that had Advanced mystic warriors as their gang leaders.

From the Advanced level upwards, the difference in strength between mystic warriors becomes more prominent and noticeable.

Of the Advanced mystic warriors who were gang leaders here, none of them were above the 5th tier, all of them were the bottom feeders of this mystic realm.

This was the reason why with a combination of Rex, Aragorn, and Princess Elanor, the Berserk Gang soon became an unstoppable force in the region.

After getting rid of Gaud and recovering from the aftereffects of that battle, the Berserk Gang laid low for 1 month as they recovered from their brief slump.

After the first month though, this gang's meteoric rise to the top finally started. With it's 3 gang leaders spearheading the operation, the Berserk Gang started a mission of rapid expansion by swallowing other gangs.

In the Gundam Shelter, this was allowed, there were hidden rules that governed this chaotic society but with enough strength, rules could be broken.

In the first week after they stopped lying low, they announced their plans, making it a public affair before arrogantly raiding a nearby gang.

That week, 3 gangs fell to the tyranny of the Berserk Gang, they became the first victims of the revolution that would continue even after 3 months.

Being a mystic warrior was expensive, and developing further was even more expensive. To further Aragorn's research, to get more mystic treasures, these raids were a necessity as they took it with all seriousness.

In the past 3 months, after swallowing 15 small-sized gangs and 4 medium-sized gangs, the Berserk Gang was already the most notorious.

Now, Rex and his companions no longer needed to talk about their gang since it was the talk of the Red Zone. Promising mystic warriors who sought opportunities to start over now voluntarily applied to join them.

As the gang grew, the necessity to state the gang's goal came and Rex gave the most arrogant goal. "The Berserk Gang's goal is to rule the Gundam Shelter".

It was extremely arrogant, but it fueled the zeal of the mystic warriors who represented the gang as they now represented it with pride and honor.

The gang now had 3 major departments. The hunter department whose main job was sending mystic hunters to hunt for beasts in the Great Forest of Elias and the Great Ape Forest.

There was the official guard department who were the warriors tasked to always stay prepared and alert to defend the gang when in danger.

Then lastly was the mechanic department. Aragorn's mechanic workshop already became a machine that churned out mystic treasures.

For the workshop to take a major department spoke volumes of Aragorn's attainments during the past 3 months through his mystic workshop.

Apart from the gang's objectives, Rex, Aragorn, and Princess Elanor already grew personally as mystic warriors. All 3 of them were now above the 3rd tier of the Advanced mystic realm and this speed was outrageous already.

After getting to the Advanced mystic level, due to the ridiculous amount of mystic energy limits now needed for an upgrade, progress was usually very slow.

Princess Elanor already mastered her 3rd mystic ability that was related to sound, Aragorn's 3rd mystic ability was related to metals and magnetism.

As for Rex, he was able to unlock and learn the shadow mystic ability already through the cultivation technique manual that he got months ago.

Overall, they were now far more powerful than they were 3 months ago.

In the living room of the recently renovated Berserk mansion, Rex rubbed his beards. "It's been 1 year already since I became a mystic warrior".

Aragorn and Princess Elanor yawned. "Won't you get tired of this catchphrase already?! It's getting boring".

"I can't". Rex said with a smile. "Looking back on all my achievements and how much I grew within 1 year; I feel proud and grateful".

Princess Elanor rolled her eyes before lying down on the couch where she raised a topic. "What about the Black Zone? Have you heard from Gavin?"

Once she raised this, Rex's eyes widened. "Oh! I almost forgot, I already got word from Gavin despite the interference, we got a deal!"

"Nice". This time, it was Aragorn that spoke as through his voice he was able to express his joy on hearing this.

Over the months, as their reign grew, they learned more about the Gundam Shelter, the 3 zones and the 3 Great Forests.

They had all been to and had hunted numerous times in the Great Forest of Elias and the Great Ape Forest, but for some reason, despite asking already, they never were able to get the real location of the Great Dungeon Forest.

This Great Forest ranked as the most dangerous of the 3 was so mysterious that they never got information about it until they got connections to the Black Zone where they were tasked to pay for the information.

Rex sent Gavin ahead to engage in the negotiations, building relations for the Berserk Gang in the Black Zone. After 2 weeks, Gavin finally succeeded.

Apparently, accessing the Great Dungeon Forest required a special runic token. Having paid an astronomical amount for it already, they now expected to get this token within the next week.

"I can't wait to enter this mystical land". Aragorn blabbered excitedly. "I heard it's filled with the most sophisticated mystic treasures in the whole world".

While Aragorn blabbered on, Princess Elanor remained seated cross-legged as she started her meditation session to train her control over adrenaline.

As these 2 warriors did their thing, Rex became left out as he soon sank into the world of his thoughts. After a long time of preparation, Rex finally felt that he was prepared to tackle some problems.

3 months ago, after going to the Blood Market where he got his Vampiric Armor, Rex discovered that the original owner of the armor left an inheritance.

For a long time already, he craved to find opportunities to speed up his comprehension speed and increase his swordsmanship mastery.

When this swordsmanship inheritance opportunity came up, he was ecstatic but he was also realistic enough to see that he was not ready then.

Suddenly leaving when the Berserk Gang was still in its infant stage with barely any foundations was a recipe for disaster. Now that the gang had a bit of renown and some foundations, he reasoned that he could go.

After living a barely monotone and repetitive life for over the past 3 months, he was ready to return to the live filled with adventures that he loved.

He wanted to visit this inheritance before going to the Great Dungeon Forest. Having told his 2 companions of his intentions before now, Rex simply reminded them that he was finally ready to leave.

"Just do well not to die". This was Aragorn's simple wish to him as he left.

"Live". Princess Elanor's was even more concise.

After leaving the living room, Rex returned to his room to complete his preparations. After 30 minutes when he was done, before leaving the Berserk mansion, he did something that he had not done in a few weeks.

Rex decided to access his system status again.

Rex whistled happily as he finally packed his bag to leave, but before he could a knock came on the door. On opening it, Aragorn came in with a solemn look on his face as Rex waited for him to speak.

"They are here!"
