The Markash monster did not hesitate and continues to attack. *GWOOSH* ice flakes particles arise as the Markash monster smashed its two hands on the ice floor. But because of the ice floor being colder than before, the Markash monster could not inflict too much damage on the ice floor.

The colder the ice floor is, the thicker the ice can be, and because of Li Ye focus as he sees that Wen Xin goes after the Markash monster.

He made it much thicker for Wen Xin Support, ”tch~” Wen Xin raised his hand as to clear the ice fog that was in front of him. ”A silhouette?!” Wen Xin exclaimed and as he jolted left and right, trying to delay the attack of the Markash monster.

But then the Markash monster stomped on the ice floor and the ice fog that was engulfing the area dissipates. And Wen Xin saw two Markash Monsters in front of him.

Li Ye immediately saw the appearance of the two Markash monsters. ``What the heck?! how did the other Markash monster suddenly appeared there!`` Li Ye thoughts as he clenched his fist.

He tried to focus on his user abilities and because there are other emotions running wild in his mind; he bit his lip to regain his focus. ”Tch~ that hurts” Li Ye yelped after that he raised his two hands and whispered ”Defend!”

Upon saying that the ice floor cracks and two ice walls appeared in front of Wen Xin, Wen Xin retreats a few meters away from the Markash monster position as he saw the walls suddenly appeared from the ice floor.

The two Markash monsters joined forces and smash the two ice walls that flashed in front of them. It did not easily destroy the ice wall with only a few punches that were thrown at it. So the Markash monster raised its left hand near its mouth and blew air that was mixed with a dark essence spirit. And with that, the Markash monster's left fist gave out a glow and engulfed in an ancient engraving which gave the Markash monster a buff as it punched through the thick ice wall..

”A Markash monster, huh… control officer,” Jin exclaimed as he entered the control room that was operating on the Field of battle.

”A Markash monster has a history from all the old candidates in serving N.D.A.M. Before all of this, came there were the towers it was the first to come into appearance before the portal rifts. It had given us a sign, but the world government ignored it. And then, from those towers that first appeared, the monsters started coming out from those enormous doors. The military push them back, but it had cost a lot of lives.”

He paused as he gulped, as he remembered the bloodiest past that he has.

”As I was saying, you were not yet born when the towers existed and because of that, you still suffered, but you did not suffer the pain we had back then. And with the monsters' appearance, the world government ordered the full building of walls for each city. But not all cities could provide walls for their defense and so they were the victims of the 2nd wave of monsters were portal rifts appeared.”

The control officer felt a pinch in his heart, and when he remembered that day, his tears fell from his eyes, dripping through his cheek. He turned around, looking at Jin, and then he was clasping his hands.

Jin nodded, ”We failed to follow what the signs have already been telling us, and it cost the lives of many people,” after Jin said as he bit his lip as he remembered how his mother died in front of him. His heart was aching as he felt like its broken into pieces and grinned to ashes.

Within his thoughts that he never got over it quickly. Even these past months the pain and the ache in his heart because of the lost of his mother.

The control officer turns around and then wipes his tears that were flowing down his cheeks. ”I am sorry I just remembered my brothers who fought the monsters because they want to defend the people who can't defend themselves to those monsters who have destroyed a lot of families, lovers and friendships.”

Jin did not reply and rather turns around as he felt the loss of his mother that he has been keeping for months. It had always hunted him how his mother died in front of him.

``If only I was strong that time… If I only have the basic grasp of my skills. She would not have died in front of me`` Jin thoughts as he grabs the doorknob and twisting it to open the door. Jin walks out of the control room.
