" What the .. a Purple Gate !!!!??? " Max shouts as suddenly a Purple Gate was opened in front of them just like that out of nowhere.
The Purple Gate, The Gate for a Danger-type Portal. Based on the Protection of Nations public description, this gate usually brings monsters that can only be defeated by Tier III Metahumans.
" This is a Tier III Gate !!!! " Max says as he prepares his armor's weapon waiting for the monsters to come out.
( After a few minutes.)
" Rangga ... this is odd, "
" The Gate has been opened for minutes but still there is no monster coming out of it?" Max asks him.
Hearing that, Rangga asks the System to detect if there's any lifeform signal approaching their area. As Rangga orders that System began to scan the area as it checks for any incoming monsters.
< No Incoming Lifeforms Detected >
"( Okay that's odd ...)" Rangga says as he thinks for a bit while looking at Max.
"( Usually back in my training days, after I came back to this city ... )"
"( Every Gates that were suddenly opened will always have monsters crawling out of it like a madman ... )"
"( But this time it's different, ... could it be ...? )" Rangga thinks to himself as he Buff himself using his skill.
< Skill: Disperse Cloak >
< Effect: Cloaking the user, covering his body with the smoke increases the user's Defense and Slipperiness towards any attacks. >
< Slippery Buff applied >
With his Buff Skill, Rangga then walks towards the Gate but then was stopped by Max as he wants to follow him since he wants to be included rather than staying alone here in this scary-like place with the monster's corpse.
" You sure .. ?? "
" Behind this Portal, there's a chance we will be entering places very far away from our planet or dimension. " Rangga tells Max as he explains how he knows such things.
" Well ... at least the place where we're going to enter is probably more crowded than this creepy base .. " Max says as he was scared of staying by.
" After all, this Gate is for Tier III Metas, right? " Max asks.
" Yeah I know, you're so confident since you're a Tier IV .. "
" But still, ... even you are a Tier IV ... your ... " Rangga says as he worried about.
" So what ... Does it matter ...!!!?? " Max asks in anger as he felt insulted probably because he knew Rangga is underestimating his physical capabilities.
" A Tier IV is always a Tier IV ...!!!!! "
" Even if the Tier IV Meta powers didn't support their physical attributes !!! " Max tells Rangga as he assures him.
" Okay then Max, I warned you ... " Rangga tells him as he says that if they both going to fight many monsters ...
He will be focusing on doing his Farming and Grinding first.
" Okay fine have it your way, Mr.Leveling Guy ... !!!! " Max shouts at him as they both now enter the Purple Gate as it brings them to arrive in a world they definitely didn't know about.
< World Entering: >
< World: *Jötnarheim >
< Location: Jötnarnia >
"( Jötnarheim ...??? )" Rangga tells himself as he remembers something.
"( This is Hashra's *Homerealm ....!!!!! )" Rangga remembered as he remembered that Hashra tells him about his home before they both ascended from the Torture Floor.
"( Now wonder there's a Mothrian corpse outside ... )"
"( It's the Giants doing ... killing Mothrians to acquire their egg for Health Potions ..)" Rangga realizes now as he sees the giant footprints in front of them as they come out from the portal as the portal closed.
" Oh shoot the portal is closing ...!!!! " Max shouts as he tries to reach it.
" Max no!!!!!" Rangga shouts at him.
" The portal will cut your body if you try to hold its *Dimensional zipper force," Rangga tells him.
" Dimensional Zipper Force ..? " Max asks as the portal close like it a zipper closing a jacket.
" That's a natural interdimensional phenomenon .... " Rangga explains.
" A phenomenon that happens after the Gates are opened due to the collision of Leylines between two worlds ... " Rangga explains to Max briefly as he remembers Hasra telling him about this kind of thing.
"Its purpose is to close the gate after the Collided Leylines are separated closing the natural bridge of worlds .... "
" Oh really ....!!!?? " Max says as he asks Rangga how did he know these kinds of things which he replied that he ... already delved in the world of magic for too long unlike many people from their place who were too busy focusing on stopping the Malicization process.
" Well you were very correct about that one, aren't you? " Max asks him as both of them continue their journey towards the realm searching for every possible loot that they can pick.
< Acquired: Jötnar Tusk >
< Acquired: Fenrislings Claws >
" Seriously bro ... still no enemies coming by !!!!??? " Max asks Rangga as they both see a large corpse probably cause by a massacre.
" Okay ... this is beyond what I expected ... " Max vomits inside the armor (Guess he needs to clean up after he finishes this mission).
As for Rangga, he then scans the whole area since he had his own suspicions about this situation.
"( This massacre is too powerful to be done by a mere Jötnar Giant. )" Rangga thought to himself as he didn't see any wounds caused by weapons in every corpse he found.
"( After all those monsters aren't actually very focused at using their elemental magic professionally except the Four-armed Giant I know.)"
"( Since they usually use raw powered abilities and weapons to exert their strength rather than focusing themselves into developing more focused and more efficient attacks. )"
"( Judging from the wound, the ones who did this Massacre must be a Meta ..!!)" Rangga states as the System detects a faint substance that is likely caused by a Meta ability.
"( A Meta ....!!!!??? )" Max asks Rangga telepathically since he was clueless about the cause of this massacre.
"( Look at that large rock ....!!!! )" Rangga tells Max as he points at the large frozen rock as it has a good shape that looks like a sword.
"( Think of it Max ... if that rock belongs to another giant .. shouldn't the rock's shape be more prehistoric rather than that? )" Rangga asks Max as he tries to debate what was the cause of their deaths but suddenly.
" What's that sound ... an incoming monster !!!?? " Max asks Rangga as Rangga scans his surrounding.
< Scanning Scanning >
< Result found >
" Oh no !!!! " Rangga says as suddenly a large howl can be heard as both of them can hear the incoming footsteps of many monsters.
" Prepare your weapons, Max !!!!! "
" I think we're both in a bad time coming here since this hour ... " Rangga says as the monsters are getting closer.
" Are the Corpse Fenrislings Eater's lunch hour !!!! " Rangga says as he equips his weapon to prepare himself from the incoming attack as the Fenrislings pack charges into their location.

Extra:
*Jötnarheim: It was actually inspired from Jotunheim but I think it's cooler to use the word Jötnar since, in old Norse, Jötnar means giant and I myself prefer to use that word rather than Jotun.
