Puzzled, Sheyan asked.

"Why not?"

Instead, Reef stammered with a deep voice.

"Could it be you...…"

Brother Black squeezed out a smile which displayed his nervousness.

"Yes, I've made my decision. It is time to breakthrough as a Growth-Hunter."

Sheyan asked with concern.

"Are you confident?"

Mogensha nodded and replied.

"Yes, after returning this time, my innate ability has upgraded again."

"Very well." Sheyan looked at Mogensha and advised. "Don't force it, try again if you can't make it, furthermore…...I believe, accumulating more strength is better. A tower grows only with a solid foundation."

Brother Black issued a bleak smile and replied.

"Boss, ever since following you, my prowess have matured rapidly, but.....what I worry most is being consumed by my own growth; like a boulder attached to my own feet."

Hearing his words, Sheyan couldn't help but shake his head and smile. He then nodded.

"Anything you need, all the party's resources can be channeled to you."

"No need." Brother Black revealed a peculiar expression.

"After returning this time, I visited my hometown which I hadn't seen for a long while. Suddenly, I felt that I've always been trying to run ever since entering the realm. For my Growth-Hunter boundary test this time, it is time I find the nature I've lost in my life."

As Mogensha spoke, he removed his equipments, one by one, from his body. The Golden AK, the dark-gold grade pants, the Sparta long spear, the SN-9 Wasp...…..eventually, he stripped till his shiny black muscles were revealed fully, and unexpectedly handed all his equipments to Sheyan!!

This meant that Mogensha wanted to make a pure breakthrough of the Growth-Hunter boundary test! The reason he placed all his equipments with Sheyan, was firstly, because he trusted in Sheyan, but more importantly, he could retrieve his equipments from his personal storage or party storage once he regretted.

Instead, by placing everything with Sheyan, he utterly severed all contingencies for himself once stepping into the nightmare world for Growth-Hunter test. With a determination of succeed or die, he wanted to squeeze out all his potential!

Upon viewing Mogensha's unwavering resolution and wild imposing spirit, a glint flickered in both the experienced Reef and Zi's eyes. Reef took a deep breath and lamented inwardly.

"If only I could possess such determination then....."

After watching Brother Black leave the personal room, Sheyan patted Reef's shoulder and proceeded to instruct Zi.

"Issue your application, you can leave the party."

There were three methods for Zi to leave Party Ace. A forceful departure, being kicked by the party leader, or a peaceful resolution initiated by the nightmare realm. Not only would the former two incur wastage of utility points and achievement points, it would deduct party experience as well. With Party Ace's grand prestige, a peaceful resolution would only require some utility points from both sides.

Zi took a deep stare into Sheyan's eyes and asked with gentle fury.

"You aren't even gonna try retaining me?"

She then issued her application. After Sheyan agreed, he sighed.

"What's mine, will eventually return. What's not mine, will eventually leave."

Her face immediately blushed as she fiercely turned to leave.

Sheyan understood her skin was thin and his words offended her, thus, he hastily chased up. He followed behind her quick footsteps. After a long while, she finally turned and icily questioned.

"What do you want?"

Sheyan offered a faint smile and said.

"I know why Zeus couldn't contain you."

Zi's expression darkened as she naturally felt embarrassed. Still, she was somewhat curious as well and developed a certain anticipation for his following words. Since they were alone, she decided to give him a chance.

She quietly glared at Sheyan. It wasn't a vicious glare, but a cool and elegant one.

Instead, Sheyan didn't say anything but produced an object.

"Since you've left the party, you won't be inheriting our party's world progress. Therefore, you should be able to utilize this."

Zi was slightly stunned but Sheyan grabbed her hand and stuffed a book in.

"What's this?" Zi asked suspiciously. "Journal Log of Bernard Fokke?"

Sheyan nodded and explained.

"If you intend to assemble the full 'Ndipaya Set', then explore this world."

Zi then recited a phrase out. "Hidden world: Resident Evil Origins Chapter."

Her face flushed with surprise as she said. "I initially believed that set was acquired from slaying others or a trade. Yet on hindsight, you actually obtained it from this hidden world."

Sheyan nodded and replied casually.

"Naturally."

Her expression turned queer and after a brief while she uttered.

"You....you're a freak!"

What she was implying, was naturally Sheyan, being a contestant, but still being able to explore an Awakener level world and still reaping a bountiful harvest!

Sheyan smiled as he held her hand calmly, without any intent to let go as time seemingly came to a halt.

For a brilliant and overbearing female like Zi, wanting to blatantly subdue her into a one-night-stand was impossible. Only by chiselling, one step at a time. Firstly, one mustn't disgust her. Secondly, one must be stronger and more domineering in certain aspects to let her be convinced and crave. By pressing in, step by step, Sheyan would definitely change her heart one day.

After some time, she suddenly realized her hand was being rudely occupied by Sheyan and immediately raged out.

"Let go."

Although she said that, her hand remained gentle and her voice indicated a non-furious form of annoyance. Sheyan directly released her hand and said.

"If you entered the hidden world while being in our party, you would have faced the aftermath of our conclusion. In that respect, I will be less concerned as the danger will have lessened considerably. With your might, it shouldn't be a problem. However, the possibility of acquiring the full set would become rather low."

Zi snorted but could discern Sheyan's subtle concern. Sheyan then continued.

"Now that you've left the party, you will inevitably encounter a whole new 'Resident Evil Origins' world. That world will definitely have some disparity between what we gone through, but the grand state of affairs should be consistent...."

Following that, Sheyan divulged out his experiences as Zi slowly listened. Eventually, Sheyan ended.

"...therefore, you must be cautious and prudent. Just be careful."

Zi couldn't resist feeling rather moved, where Sheyan very smoothly seized her hands again and said.

"I'm still left with 70,000 utility points, the consumption rate for utility points in a hidden world is tremendous. You should take some."

She blushed again and struggled for a while before calming down and whispering.

"Let go."

According to her temperament, she would've berated the other party long ago. Instead, her current relationship with Sheyan was rather ambiguous, particularly inside the underground laboratory of the Jurassic Park World. Back then, she was in despair where the opportunistic Sheyan stole a kiss. The two were locked in at first base intimacy. Of course, his tiny little movements now could easily break through Zi's defenses.

He once again released her hand and sincerely said.

"Be careful, now that I'm not there with you, you must rely on your own wits."

His words were comfortably warm to her heart, yet her prideful self issued a discomfort. She glared at Sheyan. Nobody else could say those words to her but only Sheyan could!

At this moment, she remembered the previous world. His gentle conduct yet full of cards in his hands, tiding through hurdles with ease. When facing this man, he was indeed qualified.

Reflecting on that, Sheyan abruptly asked something that had been engraved in her heart for a long time.

"Our final situation in the previous world was extremely perilous. During then, I felt that you were giving your utmost. But if an unexpected mishap were to occur, could you still deal with it?"

"Yes!" Sheyan bluntly declared.

Her eyes flashed with craftiness as she shook her head.

"I don't believe."

Sheyan smiled faintly as he took a step forward, purposely positioning himself extremely close to Zi that with one additional move, she would be trapped in his embrace. Her face flushed with redness as she attempted to shove him away and chide him. Instead, Sheyan's mouth was already beside her precious little ear.

"According to my deduction then, there was an incredibly minute probability of Skull and Zeus acting in tandem; one pressuring you from the front and the other pincering from the back, with the help of the teleportation portal. The final ace I left, was to deal with them."

Upon hearing this, Zi momentarily forgot about his present impudent bearing. She asked curiously.

"Your final ace? And what's that?"
