My Level Zero System Chapter 35 [Mind Control]

Previously, Kain had told Myra and ra that once he shot the arrow, both of them could use magic skills to attack. The arrow shot out like a signal, imdiately causing the two sisters to react.

ra uses [Earth Wall] to create large blocks of earth that rise from the ground, however, these blocks are not used for cover but to cause enemies to lose balance when the ground changes.

anwhile, Myra used the magic skill she was most proficient at - [Fire Bullet] to attack the enemy.

Unlike the two of them, Kain did not rush to attack but stood on the tree observing. From observing the way these people moved, a vague guess appeared in Kain's mind.

So Kain needed more evidence to strengthen it.

"Indeed it is…"

Seeing how they resisted the magic skills from Myra and ra, Kain finally realized that these guys weren't a standard team with separate mbers. This was a team where all the mbers were controlled like puppets by soone with a higher authority.

These people had no commander, their actions, though separate, were surprisingly unified.

This uniformity cannot happen because of being trained together or so such reason. Because everyone is different to so degree.

The sa situation, the sa potential, can also lead to different developnts.

So, this is Kain's conclusion.

"Myra, ra! No need to hesitate, just finish off all the enemies!"

Although they didn't know why Kain didn't want to leave soone behind to question them for information, they both knew that he probably had a good reason for doing so. Therefore, the two sisters no longer had to hold back and could freely sweep through the enemy unstoppably.

The truth is, these enemies are only scary when they maintain their own mystery. Once they are exposed and have to face off against genius Magus like this, they cannot win.

Fighting ten normal people is much easier than fighting one high level monster.

Very quickly, the enemies fell one after another, without even Kain having ti to join the battle.

When it was all over, Kain approached an enemy's corpse and tore off the mask covering his face. A face so disfigured that it was unrecognizable appeared before his eyes.

Looking at this hideous face, Myra and ra couldn't help but feel fear and shiver. They couldn't imagine what this person had to endure to have such a face.

Only Kain remained calm, he touched the ruined face of his forr enemy.

"The knife cut many tis, then burned by fire. This face was not created because of torture, but the person who caused this did not want others to know about the identity and origin of these people."

His voice was devoid of any emotion. He recounted a horrifying event as if he was telling what he had for breakfast today. Hearing this, Myra asked in a bit of fear.

"Why do you know these things?"

"I'm curious about that too."

Kain replied cryptically.

He then checked all the other corpses, at least the ones with intact heads. Sure enough, all of these people had faces so badly disfigured that they were unrecognizable.

"For whatever reason, we… no, this entire trial is being targeted by so mysterious force. They act in an orderly manner, focusing only on hunting down trial participants like us."

"Most importantly, these guys don't have a commander, or more precisely, their commander isn't here…"

"Wait, I know sothing…"

Suddenly, Myra raised her hand to interrupt Kain. She said that among the high-class magic skills belonging to the [Spirit Magic] system, there was an extrely rare magic skill called [Mind Control]. Once this magic skill was deployed, Magus could control the target from a distance, which completely matched Kain's description.

"But if he wanted to kill us so badly, why didn't that Magus co here himself and do it? Why did he have to go to the trouble of controlling a group of people to hunt us down?"

Myra grumbled, but her questions were right on point.

Being able to deploy [Mind Control], a high-class magic skill, their enemy must also be a high-class Magus. And for a high-class Magus, killing all three of them wouldn't even take a minute, even if it was Kain.

Kain had to admit this too.

So for the current situation, Kain gave his two guesses.

In the first case, the mysterious Magus had to use the cumberso thod of hunting with [Mind Control] because this Magus did not dare to show himself. So he only dared to use this thod that Kain described as "sure, but rather clumsy" to hunt them down.

In the second case, the mysterious Magus' target was not them, so the thod of execution was quite sloppy.

When reasoning rationally, Kain was relatively inclined towards the first case. But the second case was not without basis.

They were not the target, because they were just bait, used by the mysterious Magus as bait to "fish" out the valuable fish that the mysterious Magus was aiming for.

"Wait, we're assuming that the one who caused all this ss is a high-class Magus? Does a high-class Magus need to make things so complicated?"

ra imdiately interrupted Kain. He glanced at her, it seed that this girl was quite a competitive person. But Kain was not angry or irritated, because from ra's perspective, she was not without reason.

High-class Magus, for many Magus, is already the final limit in their pursuit of magic.

Although there have been many Magus who can be considered "talented", those who can step into the "high-class" ladder are still few.

Most Magus die of old age stuck at the mid-class Magus level, just one step away from high-class. But no matter how hard they try, that one step is simply impossible to take.

Cruel, but also very true.

Even ra - who was always confident in her own magical talent - was not confident that she could easily step up to that noble rank. Enough to understand how rare high-class Magus were.

However, Kain did not think so.

It was just speculation for now, he had no evidence to prove it so Kain did not intend to reveal it yet. But there was one thing he had warned about.

Now they had to quickly complete the entrance exam as soon as possible. Which ant they had to quickly escape the upside down forest and proceed to the next area.

Kain originally wanted to stay a little longer to kill more monsters, at least until he could increase [Thunder Summon] to max level.
