I am an Eldritch Entity-Chapter 132 : More confusion

He had long kept the phone in his bag after memorizing all of Valentina's directions.

He could already see his teammate through his extended vision, just a few more moments and he would meet up with her.

At some point Valentina had turned around, looking in his direction. But seeing how he was running, she quickly took a combat stance.

Smart.

As soon as he reached her, Eryndor hid his bag under a dense bush nearby and notified Valentina.

"I've already called Edward, a group is chasing me. It's time to fight."

Valentina nodded, and made a request.

"Can I have your Passive Regeneration and Cognitive Scrying?"

Eryndor thought for a moment and said.

"My Passive Regeneration is already active, helping me restore stamina from the short run I did, you can copy it now. I'll activate Cognitive Scrying as soon as the enemies come in range, you'll need to wait to copy this one."

Valentina didn't say anything but nodded.

Eryndor rather appreciated Valentina at this moment. For all the moral high ground that she liked to be in, she was rather quick in taking his side and getting ready to fight without any questions asked.

There was no annoying question he had anticipated like -

"What did they do to you?"

"Do you know why they are chasing you?"

"Did you steal anything belonging to them?"

It was rather childish of him, but one couldn't blame him. He didn't know Valentina THAT well.

Well, it is true I guess, never judge people.

As if she could sense what he was thinking, Valentina smirked, and spoke out while keeping her eyes trained ahead.

"People change you know. I am not the same as I once was. I know how to adjust my view points according to reality."

Eryndor only gave her a guilty chuckle, but refused to say anything.

A few moments later, Edward appeared.

"Are they close?"

Eryndor nodded, "They are almost here."

Just a couple seconds later though, his brows furrowed.

They are changing their direction?

Eryndor's eyes narrowed dangerously as he realized their intention.

While he was running, the directions had been messed up a bit. But now that he was staying at the same place, these people readjusted the direction in which they would approach him.

Result? If their group of three decided to run, they would head in the same direction which the Terramorph Ravagers were luring him in.

I guess this confirms it. This is not a coincidence.

He told his two teammates.

"They are preparing something, let's attack before they finish it. Follow my lead."

Eryndor immediately shot out, with Edward easily keeping up with him.

Valentina was lagging behind, with the gap between them increasing, but the other team wasn't so far away that she would be left behind.

Just a few moments later, they spotted the team which was chasing them.

Huh?

Just as Eryndor had a confused expression on his face, Edward was the same.

There was no level two member on the team!

From up close, they could recognise the aura of everyone as they employed various techniques to close the gap.

The strongest among them was at stage nine of Tinkerer realm, the level one of Cyborg power system.

Was it through some cyborg means that he sensed me?

Technology was a wonderful thing after all.

That just makes things easier.

Edward quickly went off to contain the stage nine student and two other stage eight ones.

As a person who stood at stage nine of level two, it would've been absolutely child's play for him to take on the entire group alone, but he left some so that everyone could get some practice.

Tacitly, Eryndor left three weakest ones for Valentina, and took on three people himself, two at stage six and one at stage seven. It was a group of nine people, equally divided among three people.

Why are they so confident?

Eryndor thought as he went a distance away, dividing the battlefield.

Abruptly, a section of earth emerged before him. With quick reflexes, he managed to evade it, while heading towards one of the guys.

Innate ability to manipulate Earth? Gotta take him out first.

Manipulating earth in this forest environment was a big advantage, and would allow the person to control the flow of the battle. He couldn't allow that.

There was a look of extreme surprise over the person's face as Earth abruptly appeared before him, blocking Eryndor's advance.

Why are they so surprised?

He got the answer immediately as he calmly swerved and used Sky Piercing Palm's lightning version.

As his lightning stunned the man, one of the two people finally reacted.

"How is he at stage seven and so fast? That person gave us incorrect information!"

That is why they are surprised?

As Eryndor chopped the stunned man in the neck, knocking him unconscious, the words rang loud in his mind.

What? They are not here for my points?

This way, all his inference was incorrect! Someone was targeting him! This was not about the tournament points at all!

Seeing that the two people were hesitating whether to fight him, Eryndor quickly took advantage of the gap and knocked another one unconscious before the last one put some distance between them.

Just when he thought he would fight, the person began running.

Direction? The same one Terramorph Ravagers were luring him in.

Eryndor narrowed his eyes, and quickly gave chase.

His speed was enough to close the gap and immediately stun him through the same method, before he swiftly knocked him unconscious.

There was simply no fight, just pure one sided bullying. All his cultivation arts were practiced to the point of mastery after all.

In the same stage and level he was uncontested unless there was some broken ability out there.

Glancing at the unconscious body, he checked if there were any surveillance methods.

Nope, same as the other two.

He headed towards the other battlefields.

Edward and Valentina were done with their battlefields, and had gathered in the middle.

He quickly asked the second year senior and his teammate, "Did any of them have any surveillance methods? Like Mystical Artifacts or something?"

Edward and Valentina both shook their heads.

"Nope."

Eryndor's eyebrows furrowed.

Huh? What the fuck? Then how did they sense me?
