Chapter 10

While Sam was having fun hunting on his own, a huge event was happening where the rest of the examinees had set camp, 101 hours after the beginning of the examination during the fourth night on Tunger moon the alien beasts had started becoming restless for an unknown reason.

Ella who had been ordered to follow and protect Edward was sitting on a branch while reading a book when she suddenly stood up and looked deep in the forest, Sid and Sara who were sitting close to her turned their heads to look in the forest with focused eyes and asked:

"Did you feel something ?"

"Yes, it's huge and it's leaking enormous amount of energy!"

"Can it be a grade one beast?"

"I highly doubt it, it must be close to breaking through to grade three!"

"That can't be possible ! We cleaned Tunger moon from all beasts that are above grade one !"

"We must have missed this one."

Ella was born with a special constitution, because her ancestors were humans and olphis which are an alien race extremely similar to humans, so similar that they are able to reproduce together she was able to feel alien beast's energy fluctuations. The biggest difference between humans and olphis is that the latest are very sensitive to the energy released by alien beasts.

"How high are our chances of taking it down before it reaches the examinees ?"

Sid asked, his face looked extremely grave and by now all the other senior soldiers who had gathered were getting ready to fight, the strength of a first grade evolver was almost equal to the strength of a first grade alien beast but it wasn't the same as they got stronger, a grade two beast was strong enough to hold its ground against 10 second grade evolvers and a grade three beast could completely annihilate a weak grade four evolver ! Ella looked gravely at everyone else and said slowly:

"It is so close to breaking through that it might happen during the fight, we must kill it in the less possible time ! We also need someone to evacuate the examinees."

As soon as Ella said that Ash who was standing behind them with a scared face immediately said:

"I'll take care of the examinees!"

Of course everyone understood why she wanted that role, it was the furthest away from the battlefield and of course also the safest but Ella didn't care, whoever did it it was the same to her as long as the job was well done.

"When you're done evacuating them report the situation to the general, we might need backup if the beast evolve during the fight."

She said while also getting ready, suddenly a longbow that was as tall as her appeared in her hands and she started jumping from branch to branch in the direction of the beast.

She had naturally assumed the role of leader but nobody had an objection, the reason why wasn't because of how strong her background was but because of how strong she was ! Ella was famous in the army of planet Moryl because of her commanding talent, she had more than once led her squads to make incredible feats during wars or missions.

Everybody followed after her and weapons started appearing in their hands from the void one after another, Sara was holding a huge double edged Axe while Sid had a sword in each hand.

Meanwhile Ash jumped down from the tree she was standing on and whistled as hard as she could, the sudden sound woke up all the sleeping examinees and also pulled out from their daze the ones who were acting as guards during the night.

"Everybody calmly follow me, the camp is under attack!"

She said with a loud voice and waited until very body was lined up before her.

"Uhm excuse me ? What is happening ?"

One boy who was around the same age as Sam and Edward but who was a lot shorter asked, he tried looking into Ash's eyes but blushed slightly and diverted his gaze after their eyes met, Ash on the other hand wasn't even slightly bashful and licked her lips while smiling flirtatiously.

"A beast that shouldn't be here has appeared, while the senior soldiers are taking care of it I need you all to follow me far from here."

BOOM

Edward who was standing amongst the ground of examinees looked in the direction of the sound but couldn't see anything as it was pitch black, the only source of light on Tunger moon was the reflection of the sun on planet Moryl but it was far from enough to see anything.

The fight between the alien beast and the soldiers had finally started, a five meter tall cat-like beast with dark blue mane was swinging it's paws towards Sara whose body was now covered in a silvery armor, she was fighting head one with the beast while Sid was attacking it's weak points whenever it showed one; he, on the other hand wasn't wearing an armor but stayed with his uniform, he just had weird looking boots that spat fire every now and then and made his body looks like it was teleporting because of the high speed.

Ella was standing on a tree branch and was pulling on the string of her bow so hard that her face was completely flushed, there was no arrow nocked in the bow but when she released a light blue arrow appeared out of nowhere and as it exceeded the speed of sound a huge explosion sounded. The arrow went straight for the left eye of the cat beast but it was dodged parried by a paw very easily, while the group of Sara, Sid and Ella were doing most of the job the rest of the soldiers were doing their best to help with either long range attacks or sneak attacks, Sara was swinging her axe so violently that nobody could get close to her and the rest of the tanks had to change their roles for this fight.

After walking far enough from the battlefield Ash looked around and said:

"We'll camp here tonight while waiting for news from the other senior soldiers."

After saying that she walked to the boy who had asked her a question earlier and she forcefully pulled him behind a tree where nobody could see what was happening, they could guess however because of the sounds and they mutually decided to ignore it but some girls couldn't help but blush.

'She's too bold...'

Edward was the first one to get to work and started once again setting camp, the night was extremely cold on Tunger moon and so he started making a fire right away.

Meanwhile one of the girls from the group who had seen Sam at the beginning of the examination suddenly screamed:

"AHHHHHHHH A GHOST!"

In front of her was standing Sam with a surprised expression on his face.

'Why are there so many people near my camp?'

He thought.
