Chapter 169: Book Of Revelation Part 3 I (2/2)
I drew in a cold breath.
13 monkeys, 13 golden staffs.
The realization gave me a sense of security, but I still worried about accidental injuries. It wouldn't just be my hand but my life at stake.
I observed my monkeys in their bullet-proof vest, helmet, and golden staff.
It was not the best outfit choice, but who cares as long as they win?
At least they wouldn't be shooting blindly with their guns anymore.
Of course, I would need them to become even better with time, just like the boy's dragons.
My booklet had turned black for the time being, so I had to wait for the next day to arrive.
I needed 13 monkey kings behind my back. The real monkey kings and not this bunch of easily frightened monkeys.
I slept peacefully that night since I had already gotten used to the quake that occurred before a battle.
We got up after the shaking stopped.
I removed the lens of the 98K and used it as binoculars.
The enemy was a foreign-looking and enormous monster, standing on the opposite planet.
It charged toward me, its mouth wide open. There was a boy with two heads behind it.
I turned around and as usual, my monkeys had run into the mini forest.
I looked at my booklet; it had turned golden again.
”Get rid of their timidness,” I wrote.
A blue light appeared and the monkeys immediately came down from the trees, bearing their teeth, and sprinted toward the monsters.
Things were going as planned.
The golden staff was no joke. My left hand was still hurting like crazy.
The scene quickly turned b.l.o.o.d.y as these monkeys killed relentlessly.
It took them three minutes to wipe the other planet out.
I couldn't figure the opponent's level but this victory did not give me a level up.
Days pa.s.sed and my monkeys became stronger.
I rebuilt a big tree for the monkeys and also gave them golden armors and red capes.
”Who are we going against today, Master?”
”Yeah, Master.”
”I don't wanna be 8th in line any longer. Switch 7th brother with me, will you?”
...
3 years later.
Just as the opposite planet was about to connect with ours...
”Do you see it with your fire eyes, Third Brother?” I asked.
”All monsters, no human. They're speaking some kind of bird language. Should we get rid of them or should I explore that mountain?” a monkey reported.
”Get rid of them if there are no humans,” I instructed.
”Alright, Master.”
He raised his golden staff and it instantly increased in size.
It grew wildly, almost comparable to the size of the opponent's planet, before smas.h.i.+ng down on it.
There was nothing to see; the whole planet shattered.
I looked at the golden LV8 on my booklet. No level up.
I was different from the boy who fought 63 battles in five years.
I had fought 80 battles within three years.
The enemies I met were mostly of lower levels.
Even after 80 battles, though, I was still stuck at LV8.
Do I need to win against an LV9 before getting promoted?
These monkeys were becoming increasingly similar to the Sun Wukongs I had imagined, my fear growing alongside them.
I was worried that the pages in the booklet would run out, so I seldom used it to write wishes.
I was afraid that a more powerful planet would come along and destroy us in seconds.
