Randy was hunting the Silver Steel Alligator for five days. He stopped only when lunch, dinner, and sleeping. He didn't know how many the Silver Steel Alligator he killed during the last five days.
Also, in the last five days, he leveled up for seven levels. Now, he was Level 92, leaving the rank 2 and rank 3 in the Level Ranking far ahead. After knowing the EXP he obtained from killing the Silver Steel Alligator was enormous, he kept hunting it non-stop.
Not only this, but he also got a new title, Silver Steel Alligator Slayer. The bonus given by the title was +100 all stat. This was not the only title he got from killing Epic Grade Beast/Monster. Previously, he already got a title from killing Epic Grade Monster, Lycanthrope.
Also, the quarter of the lake now became blue as many Silver Steel Alligators had been killed by Randy. But Randy didn't stop, he kept hunting for a week more and leveling up for five levels before he stopped.
Actually, he wanted to continue hunting the Silver Steel Alligator, but after over half of the Silver Steel Alligators killed, only a few Silver Steel Alligators who were daring to come out from the lake.
Even though he shot a barrage of fireballs to the lake, there was no Silver Steel Alligator came out from the lake which frustrated him.
That happened the last day he hunted it. That was the reason why he stopped hunting Silver Steel Alligator.
Diving to the lake? It was out of the question as it was the same as suicide.
He checked his window stat before letting out a satisfied smile. He was level 97, 3 levels to go before reaching level 100. After that, he collected the Silver Steel Alligator's carcasses which he killed just now.
There were about thirty carcasses scattered on the ground. Randy stored it one by one to his Storage System. There were over seven thousand Silver Steel Alligators' carcasses in his Storage System.
After collecting the last carcass, he intended to have lunch before going to Semarang Territory. He planned for leveling up to level 100 at Semarang Territory while gathering the Energy Core for upgrading his Elemental Power.
He checked his map and there was a clear line on his map amidst the dark map which had not been explored. After deciding his destination, Randy walked away from the silver lake.
After thirty minutes walking, he arrived at the eye-catching Gateway Trial. He looked at the Gateway Trial with a regret as he could not access it. Just as he wanted moving away from the Gateway Trial, he noticed there was a human wearing full black cloak, covering from the head to the toe.
He guessed that was a human because of it had the same built like a human. But he was unsure as nothing impossible in the current world, it could be a monster who had the same built like a human too.
Randy stopped his steps, looking at the human who was walking over the Gateway Trial. Randy looked at the right and left, looking a place for hiding to observe what the human in a black cloak wanted to do with the Gateway Trial.
He found a tree, about 10 meters away from him while the Gateway Trial was about 100 meters away from where he was. Randy decided to hide behind the tree.
He walked to the tree as he looked at the black cloak cautiously. He assumed the man in the black cloak had not noticed him as the man in the black cloak never looked at him.
Meanwhile, the man wore a black cloak stopped right in the front of the Gateway Trial while Randy headed toward the tree. Just as he arrived behind the tree and wanted to take a peek at the man in the black cloak, he heard an old man's voice right in his ears.
"Hey kid, come here! You don't need to be that cautious with me, I won't harm you,"
Randy stunned, it was like the voice was right beside him. He looked at the right and left, looking who was speaking just now. The voice was clear, and he was sure it was not an illusion or the like.
"Shana, you hear that too, right?"
"It's me, come over here kid!" Shana didn't answer yet the old man's voice sounded again in his ears.
"Uncle, it was the man within the black cloak," Shana popped out in front of his face and pointed her tiny finger toward the Gateway Trial.
Randy tilted his head, looking at the Gateway Trial. The man in the black cloak was looking at him. Even though he could not see the man in the black cloak, he could see the man was smiling at him.
The man in the black cloak found him out, so he didn't need to hide anymore. Randy came out from the tree, but he didn't dare to come closer to the Gateway Trial.
Even though he had confirmed the man within black cloak was a human, he was still vigilant. He didn't know what the man's intention. Also, the man in the black cloak managed to reach Surabaya Territory which meant the man in the black cloak was strong.
So he didn't dare to come closer, lest the man in the black cloak had an ill intention toward him.
"Don't worry kid, I won't harm you. Also, even though I want to harm you but I can't," An old man's voice sounded again in his ears as it was like the man in the black cloak could read his mind.
Even so, Randy didn't come closer, instead, he shouted to the man in the black cloak, "How can I know if you won't harm me? Based on your owns words?"
After shouting, his right hand already in Darkness' handle. Somehow, he felt the man in the black cloak was strong, even stronger than him.
"Tsk, what a troublesome kid!" The old man's voice rang into his ears. This time, he could discern from the voice the man in the black cloak was annoyed.
After saying that, Randy noticed the man in the black cloak was raising his right hand toward him. Looking at this, Randy gripped his sword tightly, preparing to fight the man in the black cloak.
'If I'm not his match, I will use Burst Agility and run away,'
Suddenly he felt the surrounding wind was revolving, faster and faster. He wanted to move away from where he was, but he could not. Soon he noticed the wind revolved around his two wrists, feet, and body.
The wind was restricting him to move. Closely after that, he found that his body was floating before flying over to the Gateway Trial.
Soon, he arrived in front of the man in the black cloak. He looked at the man in shock. Closely after that, the man in the black cloak showed his face.
"Tsk, I won't harm you, so don't worry. I call you over here to make a deal," The old man's voice rang again in his ears, but the man in the front him was not an old man.
The man in the front of him had a long silver hair which reached his back. Also, rather than an old man, he was sure the man in the front of him was not even a middle-aged man.
The man was about 30 years old or even less based on his face feature, he had sharp eyebrows with silver eyes, smooth skin like jade.
"Ahem, how rude I am, I shall introduce myself first before we can make a deal. All right, You can call me Hermit Varikh. What about you, kid?"
