Chapter 461: WHAT?!!!!!
Dark-Angel and the team watched as Queen-of-death and Blood-Arrow landed on the ground.
"What did you see?" White-Death asked.
"Well, we saw nothing... Only green, and a gigantic tree some miles north." Blood-Arrow answered, staring at the northern direction.
"Hmm... What do you guys think? Should we explore the tree?" Death asked.
"I don't think that's a good idea, Ricky... We saw some tiny dots circling the tree. And I know those are Monsters." Queen-of-death turned to Aaron.
"Don't you have anything to help us?" She asked.
Aaron thought for a moment, and rubbed the ring on his finger... An ancient looking compass appeared in front of the group.
Aaron took the compass and slowly opened the lid... The arrow started spinning, and after a whole one minute, it pointed at the North.
"Ok, That's fake." Red-Encounter said, already on the ground.
"It's not fake, and My mum gave it to me." Aaron said, moving his gaze on the compass.
"Mum? Of course, you'll have a Mum... But why would any Mother let their son come to this dangerous place?" Niki asked in mild confusion.
"*Because Aaron isn't just a child, He's a god... The god of the sky.*"
They all subconsciously turned their heads to Reaper, blinked and turned back to the 15 years old looking kid.
"Hahahahaha!! Reaper! Are you blind? There's no way this kid is a god, he doesn't even have any energy fluctuation in him." Shadow said, laughing out loud.
"Don't judge a book by its cover, Rahond... Reaper don't lie, and for him to know Aaron, it means Aaron knows Michael, right Aaron?" Blood-Arrow asked, her gaze fixed on Aaron.
"Who are you guys to Michael?" Aaron asked back.
Blood-Arrow raised an eyebrow: "Not everyone dare answer my question with another question, So first answer my question." She said.
"Yes, I know Michael, he saved my world with these guys." Aaron answered:
'Some of my powers have been sealed, but still, I don't want to be enemies, or have any bad blood with them... These guys might be Michael's family or team.' Aaron thought, and added:
"You haven't answered my question."
Blood-Arrow looked at him for a second, turned around and walked away... But a small smile could be seen on her face.
Aaron scratched his head in confusion.
"*Let me introduce everyone to you... This is Mrs Erika Brian, Our Queen, and the Ruler's Wife.*" Reaper said gesturing to Blood-Arrow.
"Uh?"
Aaron was stunned: 'Michael's wife?'
"*This is Jennifer, the Ruler's closest friend.*"
'Hmm... A Goddess, are all Michael's family so powerful?' Aaron moved his gaze on the rest.
"*Our Fire lord... Mr Tyson, one of the strongest, and the Ruler's friend.*"
'Fire lord? He'll be powerful, I can sense the heat from him already.'
"*Our baby, Mira... Our princess and the Ruler's younger sister.*"
Aaron observed Dark-angel for a while, and nodded his head: 'She might be the one Eris is after. I might not have my complete powers, but at least, I'll try my best to protect her.' He promised.
Aaron listened, as Reaper introduced all the members... After two minutes, Aaron turned to the remaining five players.
"I am James, she's Scarlett, and..." Mountain went onward, and introduced themselves.
Queen-of-death moved her gaze on the group, and turned to the North:
"Now that everyone is familiar with one another, we can start this journey... Warning: We don't know what's waiting for us ahead... So I can only say, be on guard, protect your teammates, and be ready to run when you encounter something far stronger than you."
The group nodded with her words, and everyone marched forward, deeper into the forest.

[Thousands of miles from the conquerors' location.]
BAM!
Whoosh!!!
Mrs X was still running, even though she was old, that didn't seem to slow her speed... She was currently running through a black forest like a young teenage, who have encountered a ghost, although hers was more terrifying than a mere ghost.
"Stop chasing me!!" She yelled at the skeletons warriors, hot behind her tail.
"You guys killed all my teammates, isn't that enough food! I might have left them, but that didn't mean you'll chase me!!" She yelled, leaping onto a tree, and without hesitation, leaped to another tree.
Swhoosh!!
The Skeletons weren't giving up, and instead, increased their speed.
BOOM!!
One appeared behind her and smashed down with its rusty sword.
With a moved of her body, Mrs X dodged the attack, and slashed with her sword, separating the skull from the bones.
BAM!!
She landed on the ground, and pointed her sword at the 20 skeletons moving towards her without an ounce of fear.
"I have enough!!"
BOOM!!
Red mana wave burst out from her, and transferred to her sword. "AHHH!!!"
The skeletons didn't retreat, but lunged into the air, and shot down towards her.
"[Inevitable Slash]."
She disappeared afterward.
The Skeletons smashed their weapons on her previous spot, they stood up, and slowly moved their gazes around the place.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Countless wind blades moved around them, and Mrs X appeared ten meters away, sheathing her sword.
"No more running." She said, looking at the shattered bones of the skeletons.
She turned around, and walked towards the bones, squat down and picked up a core. "Hmm... A low level core, only Lv50... But at least the number is high." She said, moving her gaze on the cores all over the place.
**GRRAAAAAAA!!!**
Mrs X froze, she slowly stood up, and turned around. The abomination stood still, with more than 200 skeletons soldiers, their gazes fixed on her.
"I don't understand, you killed all my teammates, why can't you leave me alone?!!" She yelled.
**Kill!!!**
"Ok, then." She stretched her hand to the side, and before she could summon her pet.
"---SCREECH!!!!!!!!!---"
Not only her, all the monsters froze in fear. They frantically moved their gazes around the black forest
SWhooosh!!!!
Without hesitation, Mrs X used an invisibility skill, and disappeared.
Shoosh!!!
The Abomination turned around with the skeletons soldiers, seeing a dark fog moving towards them...
Swhoosh!!
It instantly enveloped them... Covering the whole forest... Mrs X, who hid behind a tree, close her eyes shut.
**AhHH!!**
**GRAAAAAAAAA!!**
BAM!!!!!!
A huge body collided on the tree she was hiding on, causing it to trembled... She quickly held the tree tightly. Gotten her balance, she slowly looked down, seeing it was the half of the abomination... The whole upper body was gone.
"...."
She turned her head to the distance, seeing a silhouette of a humanoid figure moving around... It was so fast, and instantly disappeared... Moment next, the fog cleared.
Mrs X sat down on the tree, moving her gaze around the place, and bones.
"What was that? It killed a Lv80 monster like it was nothing, even the 200 skeletons didn't pose a threat, what level will that monster be on?" She said in a low voice.
"It took all the cores? Only diamonds are left behind, no weapon or potions..." She jumped down the tree, and looked at the direction it took:
"Heading North... I think other players are located in the north, I should follow it."
She thought for a long while, before nodding her head: "Yes."
She took the in-game diamonds on the small pouches left behind by the skeletons, and chased behind the unknown monster, making sure to keep at least 2 miles distance.

[Four Hours Later.]
"Ok, I'm tired... Let's rest here." Princess-of-Casmia said, sitting on a log.
"Come on, let cover some miles before having a break." Specter said, staring at the surrounding trees.
"Hey, Mr Robert... You are in the military, but we aren't... We need a break." Sweet-girl said, also sitting down on the log beside Princess-of-Casmia.
"It'll get dark soon, we'll rest for ten minutes, and continue our journey..." Queen-of-death said.
"We can only get to where we're going if we see the path... Look around us, these trees are too thick and huge... We can't even see if we're going the right way." Zuko said, cleaning her spear blade.
"We have a compass." Dread said.
"We aren't even sure if that's working." Virus said, staring at the Aaron. Read new chapters at My Virtual Library Empire
"Come on, Don't be like that... We'll get out from this forest, and the good part is, there is no danger here." Dark-Angel said.
"Yes, Mira is right... We just need to stay calm, and we'll make it." White-Death added.
"That's the problem."
The group turned their heads to Aaron, who looked up from his Compass:
"You guys don't really know anything about this world... Let me make something clear, This word is known as "No Man's Land" meaning, No one can survive here... Because all the landscape is filled with their own dangers... We haven't encountered any dangers because the danger is around us..."
"Uh?"
"...."
The group were confused, while Aaron continued:
"Think about it, why would there be a Forest without a single animal, or even a flower with another color in it? The monsters might be scared to enter this forest, Because the forest itself is the monster."
"WHAT?!!"
"...."
"That's why I like to play VRG with Michael, we wouldn't have entered this mess." Red-Encounter grumbled.
