It was just suicide.

But since Alex\'s information checked out, he couldn\'t really do anything about it.

If Alex was here, it meant that the university had agreed to let him take on this mission, which the Military officer didn\'t have the authority nor the effort to override.

If he wanted to go and get himself killed for such a stupid reason, then he wasn\'t going to stop him.

He was just a logistics officer, it wasn\'t his job to authorise who could and couldn\'t participate in this mission.

"Well, Alex, your information has been confirmed with the database. If you can just wait here while I go and fetch your Floodgate emblem, then you can be on your way in no time." The Military officer said.

Alex just nodded his head at the guy and watched him sprint away towards one of the nearby buildings in the military base.

He could tell the guy thought there was something wrong with Alex for coming to this place, but Alex didn\'t need to explain anything to him.

And just like he said, the Military officer returned in no time with an item in his hands.

"Here\'s your Floodgate emblem. Happy hunting!" The Military officer said with \'enthusiasm\' before he handed the emblem over to Alex.

He left immediately after, leaving Alex to his own devices, giving him the chance to inspect this thing that would supposedly record all of his kills and contributions in this Floodgate mission.

It didn\'t look particularly striking at all, it was silver in colour, covered in some other little red sparkly specks which he suspected had something to do with the monitoring system installed inside it.

They were probably just the assortment of different devices installed inside of the emblem that allowed it to track Alex\'s data, like cameras, heat sensors etc.

\'He said the Floodgate is 500 kilometres north of here. I guess I should get moving then.\' Alex thought, after hooking the emblem to his chest.

As he thought this, Alex took up his position in the clearing, looking like he was ready to launch off the ground at any moment.

But instead of flying up, like he looked like he was about to do, he shot across the surface at speeds not even a bullet could compare to.

\'Man this boost to my physical abilities is huge!\'

He arrived just a few kilometres away from his destination a few dozen seconds later, covering almost 500 kilometres of distance in a little over half a minute.

Alex stretched his legs and arms after that run, feeling more refreshed than he had been in quite a while.

He unsheathed the Mutant D- rank sword he had obtained from the ruins in the Primordial Expanse.

This thing had served him well ever since he had first obtained it, but it was starting to lose its use.

Alex himself was now on par with the sword in terms of rank and class, and he would very soon surpass it if all went well for him.

\'I guess having a sword is better than not having one…\'

\'I should probably add buying a new sword to my list of things to do, as this thing probably won\'t be able to handle the stronger beasts I\'m going up against in this upcoming fight.\'

\'Yeah, I should go looking for a new weapon when I finish this mission. Perhaps the university has some good swords or other bladed weapons on offer.\'

Alex made a mental note to revisit this topic after the mission was over, and made his way over to the ongoing battle field.

\'Wow… This place reminds me of the beast tide I faced at Valentis city…\'

And when Alex arrived, he would have liked to have described the scene as spectacular, if it weren\'t for the countless amounts of corpses littered about the place.

There were thousands of awakened, all taking part in their own battles, whether as a group or solo.

But the sad thing was, Alex didn\'t spot a single awakened among them as strong as him.

Not even the C+ rank awakened leading the pack of mercenaries and students had an aura as strong or fierce as Alex\'s.

\'It\'s time to put my new abilities to use!\' Alex thought, as he jumped right into the action.

His first target was a Mutant C rank beast that over a dozen Ordinary C- rank awakened were struggling to deal with.

\'Phoenix flames!\'

Alex decided to put his newest talent to use first, and a terrifying, deep red fire appeared in his hands.

The flames the area surrounding Alex, which drew the attention of both the awakened and the Rhinoceros-like beast towards Alex\'s location.

The Rhinoceros was huge, at least 10 metres long and 7 metres tall. Such a thing was noticeable even from kilometres away, that was why Alex chose it as his first target.

It was just the first beast of decent strength that he had spotted.

"Who the fu-"

One of the awakened, a mercenary immediately tried to step up to intimidate Alex, but he was stopped dead in his tracks as he felt the terrifying pressure the flames in Alex\'s hands were giving off.

There might be a divide in opinions on whether or not he was justified to be angry with Alex, as Alex was technically coming in to steal their kill and take their contribution for himself.

But with how long they were taking to kill this beast, they were putting more and more lives at risk.

\'This feels amazing!\' Alex exclaimed inwardly.

The moment he activated his Phoenix flames talent, he barely even felt a lick of his energy being used up, due to the increased capacity from finishing the Heart of the Phoenix technique.

But even more amazing to Alex was the fact that unlike his previous normal Flame talent, the moment the Phoenix flames came out, he didn\'t even need to use his energy to keep them sustained.

Thanks to the unquenchable heat attribute, the flames sustained themselves until Alex willed them to dispel!
