Behind the 10-story building was a small building with the continuous sound of metal clanking that reverberated throughout the surroundings.

"This is Joe, a blacksmith." Chloe pointed to a middle-aged man.

Justin stared at Joe and nodded. Beside Justin was Kira who was looking at the people inside the small building.

There are three people inside the small room. Joe, Steven, and a young man called Raphael.

Meanwhile, the temperature of the small building was way over the roof and a bead of sweat was all over their faces.

"It's nice to meet you, Joe," Justin said.

"The pleasure is mine, sir." Joe smiled and bowed.

"And this?" He turned to the young man beside Joe.

"This is Raphael, my apprentice?" Joe answered.

"So what is the new invention that needs my attention?" Justin asked.

Though his perception had already discovered what they wanted to show him. He still decided to ask.

"Please follow us?" Joe led the way.

At the far end of the room was a burning furnace anvil various hammers and blacksmithing tools.

"With the help of Miss Chloe and Pipe man we discover how to forge weapons from the beast's bones," Joe announced with a proud smile on his face.

He took out a long black spear from the rack of the weapon and presented it to Justin.

Justin received the weapon without any expression on his face. But suddenly, a notification appeared in front of him.

______

Name: Black Spear.

Grade: common.

Attack: 3%

Evaluation: An ordinary weapon made by a novice blacksmith.

_____

Hmm!

Justin creased his brow when he saw the sudden notification but quickly his expression returned to normal.

'Things are getting more interesting.'

He turned to look at Kira and gave her a weapon.

"Take and examine it."

Everyone was surprised. Why would Justin ask the new lady to check the weapon? Nevertheless, they kept their thoughts to themselves.

Kira collected the Black spear without uttering a word. She felt the weight of the weapon and its sharpness and nodded slightly.

"Good weapon." She said,

She raised her head and looked at Chloe and the others before she continued.

"I can feel the weapon is not just like the ordinary weapon. There is something special about it."

A radiant smile appeared on Chloe and others' faces. This was just their first prototype and it was a success.

"Well done everyone. With these weapons, our people have a better fighting chance." Justine said calmly.

"Don't worry leader, we'll make sure to provide the best weapon in a few days."

"Good!"Justin nodded. "Which beast bone do you use?"

"Second Circle" Chloe answered.

"Alright, continue the good, and when you're done. Make sure to receive your contribution points." Justin announced.

Everyone was surprised. They widened their eyes and stared at Justin in a daze.

Noticing their stupefied expression, he could understand what was going on in their mind.

"For every new invention, you get additional contribution points. So, work hard." He added.

"Really!" their eyes beamed with joy.

On the night floor, the new office area. Inside a room, Justin sat in a chair and creased his brow.

"Who is on a mission today?" he asked, turning to Kira.

"For people went out. Merab, Mack, Susan and Grandpa Philip." Kira answered.

"Is there a problem?" She asked.

"Nothing."

….

"What do you think they are doing?" Grandpa Philip whispered.

"I don't know," Susan answered in a cold voice.

The two people hide a couple of meters from a group of people.

The group of ten had various weapons while in front of them were people in chains.

Four women and one young man. They were almost stripped naked with various injuries on their bodies. Most especially, the gnash of a whip was vividly displayed on them.

Every step they took forward took a toil on them. Blood dripped from their mouth and their eyes were filled with fear.

Cold eerie wind makes their heart jump to their throat. They wanted to cry for help but their mouth was covered in rags.

Pa!

Hmmm!

A muffled sound came from a woman. She stumbled forward and tears dripped from the corner of her eyes. A strip of reddened lash appears from her neck to her bottom.

She grimaced in pain, gasping for air. She wanted to die but those behind her won't let her have a quick death.

Pa!

Another deadly lash on her body and wriggled in pain.

"You bitch! Would you get up or do you want to experience my other side?" A savage young man shouted.

The young man had a red scarf on his neck with a long black whip in his hand. Beside him were others with the same sort of dressing.

Pa!

"Why don't you help your woman? Do you think we have all day?" Another voice came from the right.

This time around, it was female. Her gaze was fierce with madness and her whip curled forward and lashed on the waist of the young man for the second time.

The young man bit the rag and stumbled forward while he managed to maintain his footing.

He blinked his eyes twice and tears fell like waterfalls. He assisted the woman on the ground with one and tried to move forward.

Pa! Pa! Pa!

The continuous sound of the whip echoed on the desolate street, followed by the muffled sound of the five.

Meanwhile, Susan was biting her lips tightly and wasn't aware when a red liquid dripped from her lips.

"These assholes. How could they treat their fellow humans like this." She gnashed her teeth wanting to rush forward.

"Be patient. Let's watch what they're up to?" Grandpa Philip said calmly.

"Watch you say. If you don't want to save them. I can go by myself." Her blood was boiling and deep rage filled her heart.

"Do you think they wanted to kill these people? What need for them to parade this dangerous street?" He retorted calmly.

Though he was furious, his years of experience. He knew a larger scheme was at play.

Susan wanted to retort but creased her brow and stared at the savage men before she calmed her raging heart.

"I understand what you're saying. But what can do with those helpless people if not to kill— "

"Stop!" A voice among the men shouted.

He rushed forward with a sharp dagger and made various depths on the bodies of those chained.

Blood splashed on the road while a few among the savage men took out bottles filled with more blood and spread it in the surroundings.

At once, the ten savages looked at the five chained people in disdain and ran backward.

Suddenly…
