Eye System

Chapter 13: Leaving

Exiting his room, he walks down the corridor ignoring all the people laughing, pointing and talking about him and walks towards the base exit, passing through the base centre where most of the people were talking and laughing about me and walk out of the front gate.

Jaydan watches Lex leave with an evil smile, "you three follow him and when he is far from the base kill him," he orders three LVL 20 warriors.

"Not going against the boss, but he is probably still only LVL 5 and is a trash there is no need for all three of us, or even a single LVL 21," he answers quite surprised.

"Never underestimate anyone and you guys are some of the greatest trackers in this base, so make sure he is dead and bring me his head, if not I will have your head," he orders releasing the aura of a Mortal LVL 90.

"Yes, boss" they all reply in unison respectfully as they run out of the base trying to find a trace of where Lex went to follow him.

Walking out of the base, he was using the Scouting Eye to watch Jaydan and seeing him talk to three warriors, who leave the base and look for traces must be after him.

[System, can you tell me what Jaydan told the three guys behind him].

{Ding, the conversation between them was: "you three....", "not going against....", "never underestimate....", "yes boss,"}.

Hearing their conversation, he couldn't help but praise Jaydan for his intelligence, cautiousness and wisdom, and even sending three powerful trackers after him.

Hearing this, he knew he would have a hard time, but what he had was the element of surprise and a head start.

Forming a board, he uses his Telekinetic Eye to zoom off north east from the jungle region to head towards the desert area for them to lose track of him and won't find any footprints in the sand and he hoped they would turn back.

"Where has this guy gone, all his tracks were lost from here so he must have a method to travel without touching the floor, is he jumping trees," remarks one of the scouts.

"Don't be stupid I can tell he knows we are coming and is smart, so the boss was smart not to underestimate him, there are no track marks, but you can see that the leaves on the ground were pushed north east so he must be heading to the desert region to throw us off," the leader of the scouts figures out.

Hearing this, the other scouts were shocked and realised how ignorant they were. Heading towards the outer desert Lex felt that he was still feeling followed and knew not to ignore his gut feelings and strained his eyes more increasing his speed towards the desert.

{Ding, Mission Issued: Kill all three of your pursuers - Reward: B Rank Eye Power}.

As this mission resounded through his mind, he didn't know how to react, the first time he killed someone he vomited, but he has changed and they are trying to kill him so he must be ruthless and will get an eye power so he couldn't miss out on such an opportunity.

After a few hours of hoverboarding towards the outer desert, Lex changes direction multiple times but they always seemed to find what way he was going.

Feeling the weather begin to become hotter and dryer and the trees becoming scarcer and scarcer and were becoming palm and acacia trees that can survive in such heat, Lex knew he would arrive at the dessert soon.

[I have finally reached the desert area and will have nowhere to hide and will only wear myself out more if I just keep going into the desert and will sneak attack them from here].

With the current strength of his body which is extremely powerful able to rival a normal LVL 20 without energy or skills, he can hold his breath for around half an hour.

Sucking in a large gulp of air, he uses his Telekinetic Eye to move the sand without leaving a print and makes a deep hole and enters the sand and cover himself and the hole with sand and using Dual Eye, Scouting Eye and Telekinetic Control Eye to make the outside look natural and not show any traces.

After nearly half an hour of waiting Lex was beginning to get dizzy holding his breath and being under the hot sand in a desert was beginning to take its toll on him.

Dashing towards the desert the three figures immediately stopped as the landscape was beginning to change and scoured the sand for tracks.

Seeing this as the perfect advantage before the intelligent tracker could warn them the one looking closely at the sand has his throat slashed by a dagger held by a young boy flying out of the sand. The blood-stained the dagger as the sand soaked in the blood, dyeing red.

The other 2 seeing their companion being killed were furious and before the other tracker could charge in out of fury, he was grabbed by the leader.

"Calm down, if you attack wildly you will lose your life, don't underestimate his intelligence and ruthlessness" he advises as he and Lex glared at each other.

While they were conversing the Lex with a left white eye and a right blue eye with a symbol, charges at them head-on with a dagger in each hand, propelling himself forward with his eye boosting his speed.

Leaping towards them with both daggers in hand towards the two trackers left Lex slashes down.

Pushing his subordinate out of the way and jumping back the leader was shocked by his power but wouldn't allow it to affect him. Thinking it was his main attack he was prepared for another central attack but before he could react, he was stabbed in the back with a knife Lex had already prepared and buried under the sand.

Although he wouldn't die from one blade which didn't have enough power to kill him, but it weakened his combat power massively. On the offensive, not allowing them to have time to react, which from battle and life experience made remember to never to hesitate in battle.

Lex threw a knife at the tracker who was in a daze watching after his comrade be killed and his leader be injured as the blade slashes his shoulder as he turns to run.

"Don't run you, idiot, you are giving him the perfect opportunity to kill us" screams the leader angrily.

But it was too late as Lex carried his body forwards launching himself onto the tracker falling on top of his back as he stabs his two daggers in his back.

"2 out of 3, now for the injured leader" announces Lex tries to mess with the leader's mental state.

However, he knew better than that, seeing Lex's speed he wouldn't be able to run so had only one choice a direct battle.

Charging at Lex with a short sabre in his hand, the tracking leader puts all his power into this strike as a last resort.

He charges at Lex who was getting up off the tracker, but while he slashed at him Lex carried himself flying up and sends him crashing down towards the tracker leader as his two blooded blades collided with his sabre.

Fighting on evenly Lex begins to gain the upper hand after using his dual eye to have more combat power and perception and his opponent was losing blood.

After clashing for a few minutes, the leader slashes at Lex's neck who slips right and slashes back with both his blades at full power ripping his stomach and internal organs. As blood flowed out and the leader falls to his knees he looks up at Lex.

"You are this powerful at 14, you really are a talent, please make it quick I was only following orders," he says accepting death.

Without mercy he slashes his neck, giving him a painless death.

"I need to hide these bodies and won't be able to return to the base without being strong enough to beat Jaydan" he mumbles.

Burying the bodies deep into the sand leaving no trace, Lex heads deeper into the desert without a single bit of remorse or guilt.
