Chapter 21: Lingwu Strengthening Stone
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Vincent looked at the scarlet tongue and broke out in cold sweat.
If he had just been a little slower or even hesitated a little bit, he would have been pierced through directly.
The scarlet tongue retracted, and everything was silent once again.
Vincent did not believe that the monster that had just ambushed him would give up so easily. It was obvious that it was preparing for its next attack.
He recalled the monster guide and filtered through it in his head.
His eyes suddenly widened.
“Underground Lizard! This is a serious problem.”
Vincent gulped his saliva.
The Underground Lizard was a beginner-level monster. However, its actual combat strength could be compared to an intermediate monster.
Although its defense was low and its speed was slow, it possessed the ability to move underground, allowing it to appear and disappear mysteriously.
It was difficult to guard the Underground Lizards during the day as it would travel as far as it could.
However, it was nighttime. It was even more impossible to look out for the lizards at this time.
Other than the wind blowing on the leaves, there was no other sound.
Vincent was fully focused and constantly paid attention to the surroundings.
“Left side!”
Vincent sensed danger again and suddenly pounced forward.
“How could it be the left side?”
Vincent was puzzled.
Underground Lizards had always launched attacks from underground. This was an unchanging law.
What kind of trick was this for it to attack from the left?
Dong!
Vincent felt a gust of wind blew past the area that he was in earlier.
Suddenly, a big tree on the right fell to the ground. He saw three people hugging the big tree as the tree fell.
“What?”
Vincent’s eyes widened.
A gust of wind managed to break the big tree that the three people were hugging?
Even if it killed Vincent, he would not have believed that he died.
It was obvious that this was actually another monster.
It was the same type of monster that could turn invisible at night.
“Color-Changing Rhinoceros!”
Vincent really wanted to leave this time. He wanted to return to Bick Town as soon as possible.
Color-Changing Rhinoceros was an intermediate monster. It had a high defense, high speed, and strong attack power.
It had the ability to change the color of its body and blend into the surrounding environment.
Underground Lizard and the Color-Changing Rhinoceros!
What kind of combination was this?
He had never heard of two completely different monsters cooperating with each other!
It really subverted Vincent’s view of the world.
Vincent would not panic if he were to face one of these monsters alone.
This is because even if it was an intermediate-level monster such as the Color-Changing Rhinoceros, they were all the same.
Given his body structure, combat characteristics, and his Hellfire power, Vincent was very confident that one monster would not be able to get close to him.
However, he was facing two monsters at the same time and did not know what to do.
The two ambushing monsters were eyeing him like tigers. Vincent was annoyed.
When Vincent landed, he did not even have the time to stand up as he felt danger coming from below him.
“F*ck!”
Vincent cursed angrily and released Hellfire directly to protect himself.
“Argh!”
A scream came from below.
Although he released Hellfire, Vincent controlled his power.
Therefore, he did not directly burn the Underground Lizard to ashes.
Underground lizards were very precious. Although many were killed by the strong, their corpses were never found.
The strong refused to look for them.
To them, psionic coins were just a number.
A single crystal could be sold for hundreds of thousands of psionic coins regardless of its level.
However, Vincent still planned to get his hands on it.
After all, he was short of money.
Vincent stood up and directed the Hellfire to spread in all directions.
Although the Color-Changing Rhinoceros was an intermediate monster, it relied purely on its body to fight. After seeing a monster like Vincent, its only option was to run away.
The Color-Changing Rhinoceros still wanted to find an opportunity to attack Vincent sneakily.
However, it was horrified to discover that its body was actually emitting flames, and it was the kind of flames that made it tremble in fear.
It turned around and wanted to escape.
However, its speed was too slow for Hellfire.
Its tail was ignited by a small wisp of Hellfire, and with a bang, it was covered entirely by Hellfire.
Under Vincent’s deliberate control, the Color-Changing Rhinoceros did not burn into ashes. However, it was cooked thoroughly, and the fragrance of its meat wafted out.
Vincent used Hellfire to look into the hole made by the Underground Lizard’s tongue. He then found the Underground Lizard rolling around.
Its entire tongue disappeared after being burned by Hellfire.
Vincent used Hellfire to melt the ground. He melted it until he was directly above the Underground Lizard. He then turned Hellfire into a net to catch the lizard. After he caught the lizard, he chopped off its head.
At this point, both monsters had been dealt with by Vincent.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully killing a beginner-level monster, the Underground Lizard. One upgrade pill obtained.”
“Do you wish to consume it?”
“Consume it.”
“Ding! You have successfully consumed the upgrade pill. Psionic power limit increased by 5 points.”
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully killing an intermediate monster, Color-Changing Rhinoceros. One F-Class spiritual martial strengthening stone obtained.”
Vincent fell to the ground due to the excessive consumption of his spiritual energy.
“Spiritual martial strengthening stone? What is this?”
While he took some medicine, he checked the attributes of the spiritual martial strengthening stone.
F-Class spiritual martial strengthening stone can strengthen spiritual weapons and increase their offensive attributes. There was also a chance to increase the level of spiritual weapons.
Special note: Three F-Class spiritual martial strengthening stones can be combined into an E-Class spiritual martial strengthening stone.
“Enhanced weapon?”
After reading the introduction, Vincent looked at the Black Battle Saber in his hand. After thinking for a while, he chose to enhance it.
This saber was his first weapon. It faced life and death with him, and it had suffered a gaping wound when he was fighting against the Vampire Rat.
Therefore, it was vital to make it stronger.
Also, it was because he did not know when he would get the other two spiritual martial strengthening stones.
“Use spiritual martial strengthening stones on D-Class Black Battle Saber.”
“Ding! Strengthening in progress, please wait a moment...”
“Ding! Strengthening completed, D-Class Black Battle Saber has been upgraded to C-Class Black Battle Saber!”
“Ding! Attack speed increased by 10%, attack power increased by 10%.”
Vincent looked at the Black Battle Saber in his hands. There were no changes to its appearance.
The broken part was restored to its original state, and Vincent felt as if he had practiced with it for some unknown reason.
He waved it a few times, and it was very light. However, Vincent knew that it was not because the saber had become lighter.
Instead, it was because the system had notified him that it increased its attack speed.
He used his left hand to feel the blade and laughed heartily.
“Old buddy, let’s rest for a while and continue!”
The power in his body had recovered a little bit.
He no longer felt weak. He then stood up and kept the body of the Underground Lizard.
He later walked to the corpse of the Color-Changing Rhinoceros that had been cooked by Hellfire. He dug out the crystals and ate a piece of its thigh meat.
The flesh of the discolored rhinoceros was very firm, but the texture was not good.
Vincent ate half of the leg just to fill his stomach.
After feeling like all his aspects had reached peak level, he continued to kill monsters.
At the same time, the two sisters, who were hundreds of meters away, were attacked by beginner monsters known as the Ghost Wolves.
Ghost Wolves were beginner monsters. They appear in groups of at least dozens, and at most hundreds. They were fast, had sharp teeth, and their howls produced sound waves.
The Wolf King was a gray wolf that had lost its left eye. It was an intermediate-level monster.
Unfortunately, Angelina and her sister were surrounded by more than 300 Ghost Wolves.
