Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen-Chapter 340: Strongest Group, Big Monsters
"Alright, go," Erix snapped his finger again, teleporting Zoe and Elena right before the giant seahorse with sleek dark blue scales and flame tails, looking as powerful as its monstrosity.
"As for you all, we have a different task for you," Rin said with a grin as she turned to the other members. "Spread out in two groups and attract surrounding monsters here."
"Don't engage in serious combat even if you are powerful and capable of killing them," Erix said. "Just bring them here by provoking them."
"Understood," Leon smiled as he understood Erix's plan.
The ten members parted into two groups and went in different directions. The forest was two hundred kilometers in straight length, but it was slightly bigger in wideness, at roughly three hundred kilometers.
After everyone left, Erix, Rin, and Isabella looked at Zoe and Elena fighting against the Chilling Flame Seahorse.
"They can project powerful enough attacks through your weapons to destroy that monster's projectile attacks as well," Rin said with a chuckle. "Our group's combat power is highest among the rest."
"Mhmm," Isabella nodded and said, "Since we'll be progressing more than others, we'll also receive more retaliation."
"No need to worry. We'll remain ahead even if we get stronger retaliations," Erix said with a carefree smile. "Let's train our members until we reach a powerful enough stage where we can challenge ourselves."
"Yep. I wonder what's behind the forest. Should I go and scout ahead?" Rin asked.
"Haha, I know you are raring to go," Erix burst out laughing. "Alright, go. But if you encounter something dangerous, then inform me."
"Don't worry, darling," Rin sweetly smiled. "I won't hog all the fun."
"I shall join in the danger with you two," Isabella said as she clenched her fist, fired up and raring to test her new limits as she had gained much during the past much.
Her Power Level had reached 54,380! She was right behind Leishun in terms of World Leaderboard ranking, at rank 13th!
"Haha, okay. You can definitely survive with us given how much you've improved," Rin grinned.
"Thanks to you two," Isabella beamed.
…
Rin left while Erix and Isabella remained on the sofa.
"These two are doing good," Erix said as he watched Elena and Zoe evading without much trouble and dishing out constant attacks on the monster.
Although only a minute had passed since the group left, they still returned while carrying a few powerhouse auras behind them.
A giant two-headed snake with a Power Level of 46,940.
A giant fish with spiky dark green scaled skin and feelers. 51,390 Power Level.
A giant seal with a horn on its head, crystal-coating on its skin, and magical patterns, bearing a Power level of 42,890.
Lastly, a giant manta ray-like creature, but with an exotic coral reef structure on its back powered by its core and powers. It was the strongest among the four, bearing 64,795 Power Level.
Both groups brought two monsters behind them each.
Erix quickly froze the monsters into his Space Prison, causing the group to heave a sigh.
"Good job. Now, make pairs and pick your target," Erix grinned. "That Corfor Manta Ray will be a tough call, so you can exclude it from the options."
After all, the strongest of them was Varan, with a 46k Power Level. The rest had lower than that but higher than 40k.
"Eh, we can't try the Manta Ray?" Varan scratched his head. "I wanted to fight it with Maya."
"Why me?" Maya rolled her eyes. Read today on novelbuddy
"Our combat abilities synergize well," Varan grinned. "Of course, if you are scared to challenge this, then it's fine."
Erix looked with amusement. "If you two are interested, then go ahead."
Maya put her black hair's lock behind her ear as she glanced at Varan. After a couple of seconds of not blinking, she blinked and said, "Fine. Let's do it."
"Great," Varan said with a laugh as he put his Gada on his shoulder and turned to the Mantra Ray. He wore a light-metal combat armor set of golden and silver design.
Maya took out a black book out of nowhere as it floated before her. She stood behind Varan, wearing a black robe with lapis blue patterns and stone, magically enchanted to boost her stats and powers.
"Boss, we are ready," Varan turned his to Erix and showed a thumbs up.
"Alright," Erix nodded and unsealed the Manta Ray from the seal.
Varan immediately provoked it by having his Gada and releasing a strong red-ish golden energy projection slash.
Samuel and Leon decided to fight Spike Crystal Fish with 51k Power Level.
"The remaining two monsters will be a single-person battle," Erix said. "Samuel and Leon, why don't you two finish the other two?"
"Alright, boss," Samuel said, his eye-patched eye faintly glowed red as he turned to the snake. "I'll take on the snake."
"Fine, I'll take the weaker one," Leon chuckled.
"The rest of you can go ahead to find more," Erix said with a smile. "Get used to fighting under the water."
The remaining members left to bring more monsters and just after that, Zoe and Elena killed the powerful Sea Horse.
But unlike the monsters on Earth, this one didn't turn into motes and vanished.
However, Zoe and Elena got a surprising notification while the monsters also glowed and started shrinking.
"Boss, this is new," Zoe exclaimed in surprise upon getting the notification.
The sea horse also shrank into an orb as it lay on the ground.
Elena picked it up before she and Zoe arrived before Erix and Isabella.
Both of them inspected the orb and were surprised.

"Also, we might be close to level up," Elena said. "Whenever we kill a monster, we feel something going inside us and powering us. We felt the same, but we actually didn't get stats after killing it."
"Yes. We didn't get stats like we kill monsters outside," Zoe nodded. "But we still felt something, so I think we can level up faster here."
"Interesting. Alright, go and bring more monsters here. Kill one more and see what happens."
Erix grinned and stood up, "If we want to speed up and clear the whole forest, I'll also have to make a move myself."
Isabella wryly smiled. She understood that Erix was going to bring as many as possible with his space powers.
