Fantasy System-Chapter 212: Ball of KI

Many monsters were attacking the ship. The most dangerous one was a Heavenly Establishment level 10 shark. This shark could control its QI and concentrate it on its teeth. These teeth would be able to pierce through diamonds as if they were crackers, and thanks to them, the ship suffered a lot of damage.

The first Ed did, was locate the monsters that are underwater. Thousands of Telekinesis threads emerged out of his body and started to coil around the ship, both under and over water. Thanks to his upgrade from Heavenly to Immortal, the number of threads became thousands from hundreds, and they managed to become bulkier.

The threads formed a cocoon around the ship, protecting it from the monsters. It was akin to an energy field that was impenetrable. Not even the sharks could penetrate through it.

Since the field was made from Ed's Telekinesis, it was like a part of his body and anything that touched it was relayed to Ed's super brains. Thanks to his Parallel Thinking, he devised a three-layer plan. First, one of his brains would register the position of the monsters that attacked the field. The second one would open a portal using Space magic connecting Ed to the monsters. And the last one would send a KI wave.

"The first one is coming up, WarGreymon!" In less than an instant, Ed took care of a monster. His execution was so fast, so quick, that his portal closed up before any water came to his side.

Like a bullet, a shark emerged out of the water. WarGreymon, who was flying, moved like a silver and golden bullet and slashed the shark into six parts. The next one was a shark, and then an octopus. More and more sea monsters lost their lives before they could register what was happening. Ed and WarGeymon's team play didn't allow them rest time.

The ship's defenders, accomplished cultivators, were shaking. They could see what true power was like. What true might could make possible. The ship's staff and residents could understand how the rumors about Ed's power came to be. And they also understood that they weren't rumors but it was a reality.

The ship remained undamaged after Ed's interference, and the monsters attacking were taken care of. Only one, that remained hidden for the whole duration, appeared. It was a gigantic anglerfish, whose mouth looked like the entrance to the abyss. It opened it wide and sucked the water, along with the ship.

"You're hungry, aren't you? Then, please allow this lowly human to satisfy your stomach!" Ed scanned the fish and could see that it was Immortal Establishment. He didn't care about the fact that such fish live in deep waters but only focused on terminating it.

Ed put his right hand up and started gathering KI above it. A small ball of KI started appearing and grew as it formed itself. It was of a golden color. The ball made a small tornado around and blew the hot wind to the vicinity. The ship started shaking due to its power, and the gallery watching Ed started screaming out of fear.

The KI ball continued to grow until it was bigger than the anglerfish's mouth. It was akin to a small sun.

"Eat this you oversized fishy!" Just as the ship was in front of the anglerfish's mouth, Ed threw the KI ball. Needless to say, it was too late for the fish to escape. The KI ball engulfed the bulk of the fish and incinerated it down to its last bone. The seawater around it boiled to the degree that it became water vapor instantly.

Any monster near the ship ran for its life, as it could see the strongest predator around was killed in an instant. Ed was quite happy as he managed to get two Gacha tickets out of this little hunt. The carcasses of sharks and other monsters he killed were stored in his Inventory. He returned to his room with Agumon without letting anyone ask him anything. He passed by Emilia's room and entered. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶

Emilia, Bella, and Suika were in the middle of playing a card game. Ed had made it on a whim and used it as a form of entertainment. For some reason, Suika was rather good at it and managed to win 90% of the time regardless of her opponent. Even Ed, the creator, was no match.

"Didn't you guys feel the vibrations?" Ed asked them.

"We did." Such a harmonious perfectly synced answer made Ed's eyebrows twitch.

"Why didn't you come to check it out?" 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

"We knew you would check it out, so we left it to you."

"Enjoy your time" With nothing to say, Ed left them with these words before he left. He returned to his room and spent his time either playing around with his KI or sleeping. The hours went by and the ship arrived on the shore of the Central Continent. Ed and his companions descended first, as no other passenger dared to do it before them.

"We're finally here!" Merry stretched her hands and legs while floating in the air. Ed's group caught the attention of many people on the side of the road. Yet, no one dared to stop them. Sieg's figure and eyes struck fear in their hearts, so much that they averted their eyes. Ed found it displeasing, as he knew it would hurt Sieg's feelings.

Still, they continued their journey. The group encountered the same Koma Inu like primates in the same area where Ed found them last time. Of course, it was a one-sided slaughter. After reaching the tower city, Ed headed straight to the entrance. Unlike last time, he didn't see many people around. Most of them were simply the residents of the city.

"The tower is closed until an issue is solved." A man standing in front of the entrance told them. Ed felt that things had changed a lot during his absence. Usually, thugs and bandits would be scouting their prey by the entrance. Yet, only the guard was around.

"What issue?"

"A boss monster has gone berserk for over a year on the ninth floor. No one has been able to clear it and many people died. We're waiting until a capable cultivator can stop it."

While the guard spoke, he failed to notice a grin forming on Ed's face.
