Battle of Ascension

Chapter 258: Phase 2

Randy rushed back to Evergreen Territory, he could not wait to see his wife, his mom, and his father. They were his only family, his only closest, but there was an important notification from the Battle System.

Battle System had gone through another update when he was away.

Battle System: Battle of Ascension Phase 1: Preparation, reached!

Battle System: Battle of Ascension Phase 2: Territory War, starts!

Battle System: Battle System has gone through a second update! Please check the new update!

Series of notification rang in his head just after he left Hermit Varikh. He remembered that there was one condition needed to be fulfilled before the Battle of Ascension phase started.

The condition was, a million people reached level 100. When one million people had reached level 100, then the Battle of Ascension phase 2 would start. It was what Audrey told them.

The Battle of Ascension phase 2, the real battle, the real selection, and the real misery for human, especially for the weak people, misery would come for them.

Crimson Princess didn't tell him what the misery mean as she didn't elaborate the detail. She only knew about that after reading the Crimson Cloud Kingdom's history, but not experienced the Battle of Ascension herself.

She only knew the second phase was the real battle and the misery for the weak. As for why that was a misery for the weak, Randy would know after the Battle of Ascension phase 2 started.

Randy checked the new update. Actually, this was not the second update, but this was the second major update, the others were just a minor update.

-------------------

A sense of foreboding aroused in his heart after he summarized the Battle System Update. Sure enough, just as he finished reading the new update, the series of notifications rang in his head.

Battle System: Evil Clan - Asura Guild had proposed Territory War against your guild! Your guild has the right to reject the Territory war! (3/3)

Battle System: Happy Guild's vice leader, Zhen Yi has declined Evil Clan - Asura Guild's Territory War. There will be no guild could propose a Territory War against your guild for a week.

Battle System: Evil Clan - Asura Guild had proposed Territory War against your guild! Your guild has the right to reject the Territory war! (2/3)

Battle System: Happy Guild's vice leader, Zhen Yi has declined Evil Clan - Asura Guild's Territory War. There will be no guild could propose a Territory War against your guild for a week.

Battle System: Evil Clan - Asura Guild had proposed Territory War against your guild! Your guild has the right to reject the Territory war! (1/3)

Battle System: Happy Guild's vice leader, Zhen Yi...

Ashura Guild kept proposing the Territory War, but Zhen Yi always declined the Territory War. Randy didn't know why Zhen Yi declined the Asura Guild challenge, it seemed Asura Guild was not that strong.

If his memories were right before he went for the trial there was no guild called Asura Guild at that time. Even though the new Asura Guild was strong, he believed Zhen Yi and the others could handle them.

But what made Randy puzzled was the Asura Guild itself. They were so persistent to challenge his guild while there was no enmity between them which was weird.

If he was right, Evil Clan was the main guild while Asura was Evil Clan's branch guild. He didn't have enemy except for Dragon Dynasty, more precisely his only enemy was Long Family and Yang Family from Dragon Dynasty.

Also, the Sky Sect, but he never offended the one so-called Evil Clan.

'Look like the situation has gone wrong even before I can tell them the reason behind the Battle of Ascension,' Randy thought as he roughly guessed the reason behind the Asura Guild challenge.

In the second phase was misleading them. The Territory War mean was not for the human to take each other territories, but to compete against the beast and other races.

Using the resource in the territory to strengthen their force to face the final battle of the Battle of Ascension. That was the main purpose of phase two.

Phase 1 was to help them to adapt to the new environment, helping them in the early stage of the Battle of Ascension as the human considered as the weakest. Then Phase 2 was the real battle, they have to survive with no help. Randy guessed the price which back to normal meant the price every item, material, equipment, at least would double at the price.

Because of this, Evan made a plan for them to unite every force before creating an alliance when the barrier between continents disappeared. Audrey told them the barrier would disappear after six months the phase 2 started.

Evan planned to unite all humanity into one alliance to face the final battle of the Battle of Ascension. That was why he told him and Limera to unite every force in East and Africa, and the last they would conquer Europe.

Randy opened his window stat, wanting to check about Evil Clan, but he surprised when he his eyes fell on his level. His current level before going back to earth was level 248, but now his window stat showed his level was level 97.

"Don't tell me"

"Bingo, You have to wait for Battle System to download your data from Ascension System. The same as before, you have to wait for a week," Shana's cheerful voice rang in his mind, it was indicating Shana didn't come out.

Since Randy contracted a Battle Partner, Sovereign Rocky. Shana became even more cheerful, she told him that she could communicate with Rocky when Randy had made a battle partner contract with Inflame Griffin.

From then on, she always with Inflame Griffin. Sovereign Rocky also could communicate with Shana, so the two had become buddy in less than a week after he contracted Sovereign Rocky.

Randy also felt a sense of foreboding with the name of Evil Clan. Audrey reminded him to be careful with the person who had hidden stat Evil.

The people who had Evil hidden stat bound to become their enemy. Randy didn't know why as Crimson Princess didn't tell him the detail about it, but Evil hidden stat was the human-kind enemy, it was for sure.

"I will ask Shana later, for now, I want to meet my wife first, and my parents," Randy muttered in a low voice as he rushed forward.

He had asked her, but she told him to raise her level until level 35 then she would tell him about the hidden stat, all of them.

"But I need to investigate this Evil Clan later, if this Evil Clan is the nest of the people with an Evil hidden stat, then I must era--"

Battle System: You have entered the Asura Territory!

Bam!

Randy bumped into a wall. Just now he focused on Battle System interface and wanted to check more detail about Evil Clan in the forum.

He advanced without looking the front and didn't aware there was a steel wall in front of him.

"Ugh!?" He felt no pain even though he advanced with full speed, but bumped into steel was nothing for him.

"But what the heck with this wall!" Randy grumbled randomly.

If his memories served him right, this territory supposed to be Bandung Territory. He needed to pass three more territories to reach Evergreen Territory.

"Wait a minute"

Just now the Battle System notified him he was entering Asura Territory, not Bandung Territory.

But not long after, there were two people in the black armor approached him. These two were wearing pitch black armor, but on their chest, there was a devil mask picture with two short horns protruded upward.
