As Siphex was walking down the road, looking for blood stains and footprints. After a while, the traces of footprints led him off the road and into the forest.
"Hmmmm. Whoever they are, they appear to be dragging something heavy "Siphex mumbled as he knelt and dipped his finger into the scattered blood on the ground, taking a taste
"Mmm How I miss blood, this tastes wonderful but it's somewhat dry, it probably hasn't been too long since this happened," he muttered as he stood up and proceeded to follow the trace, but as he did, a trace of yellow hue welcomed him in his colorblind vision.
(A trace of strong soul energy has been discovered nearby)
< Astral Vision >
As soon as he saw the notification, he realized that the new passive turned on automatically, alerting him to the presence of an energy trace running parallel to the blood trace. "Interesting," he muttered as he continued
Looking at the several pleasant notification Siphex was overjoyed...< You have consumed the heart of the secret boss: Alpha Drake >< Souls + 1,240,716 >< Level up >< Level up >< You've unlocked a new skill >< You've unlocked a class special Ability >'Holy crap, that's a shitload of souls,' Siphex said as he examined his status, intrigued by the new talent and Special class ability< Status >Name: SiphexRace (Arachnoid: rare )Class ( Shard of ????? ??: Aboleth illusionist)Level (35)Souls ( 433,920/675,820)Energy shard (0) < stats >STR ( 60 «max») VIT ( 60 «max&
"Wow, look at what we've got here!!" Looks like we've struck gold, boys; there's a demon here by himself, tsk tsk tsk, that's a terrible sign. Merlin, we thought you were lying to us. Was it this guy who took our loot?" A masked cloaked man walking forward said, "As all the cloaked people near him made way for him." "Ohh, I see you've returned with a lot of aid, sure, I took the stuff, but it wasn't yours as far as I know, so what are your goals and what do you want?" "I promise, you wouldn't want to attack me," Siphex said, looking at the man who appeared to be the group's head. *Haha* *ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha* "Ha, you think you're tough just because you've beaten the weakest of us," the man said. The man laughed when Merlin whispered next to him," I swear, he told us that he's a challenger and that he only arrived yesterday or whatever, but be careful, he's tough." "Oh, right, one of my pals here informed me about that." That's why the boss summoned us all; we'd bee
In the Elven capital of Sharandor, on the continent of Grand Mandura, there was a huge conference room supported by Giants pillars. in the middle of it was a big round glossy table as multiple individuals could be seen sitting around the table with several guards standing around the room walls "And just as I promised, another shipment would arrive by the next week, which will help with the need for supplies at the shores," said a dwarf who was quite larger for a dwarf, wearing brown plated armor, his head was bald with a red tattoo of a war hammer, rocking a big braided beard sitting next to the Elven King, he was the dwarven king olaf. "That is fantastic news. So, King Olaf, tell me how things have been going in your kingdom lately. "I've heard you've had some problems with stock theft; have you found out who's to blame yet?" inquired the elven king. "Oh right, we did." We disco
While glancing at the king, the sage just nodded and removed the robes that covered his upper body. displaying his bare chest to everyone and startling them with something that attracted their attention and made them look bemused and disbelieving"Impossible....don't tell me that is....the dark blight," mumbled king Olaf, as he and the rest of the table stared at the sage in astonishment." This happened after I received a severe hit from that dark elf during our last fight. He was not only powerful, but he also had the ability to summon the dark blight's powers. According to our ancestors' records, only the lord and a select few dark elves wielded the dark blight during the old war. This is not the case this time. "This one claimed to be simply a servant," the sage stated, his torso exposed. The skin around the wound showed dark blue areas with many dark veins running over his body, indicating a major infection.<
* Arghh **Thud*" This carcass is too heavy; how far will we have to travel before we reach the town?" As he sat panting, tired after lugging what appeared to be a giant boar-like beast carcass tied over a wooden frame, said a young guy. He was frail, dressed in light leather armor that had seen better days with a long bow slung around his back. He had short dark hair and a tanned complexion. Fares was his name." Ah, fares, I told you we'd have less trouble if we hired a little wagon or someone strong enough to help, but you didn't want to split the earnings with anyone. It's not far from here we're halfway to the town. "I think we should take a break and continue dragging this before it attracts unwanted attention," said another bald young man, he had a golden earring and was dressed in fur armor and with a war axe around his waist. He was slightly more muscular than his partn
"I couldn't see it because it was invisible, it was also incredibly fast and it hit me pretty hard, look," said Siphex as he showed everyone on the carriage the scratches on his chest.Fares screamed, "Damn!""Wooo, that must have hurt you a lot, look at how damaged your armor is" Malek replied, looking at the scars on Siphex's chest." Yeah, it didn't hurt that much, and I was strong enough to battle it, which later led me to arrive at this place," Siphex explained." Damn you've been through a lot, but you're also strong since you've managed to overcome all those difficulties," fares exclaimed in awe."Tell me about it, stranger. How has your journey been since arriving at the ruins? And how did you learn about the town's existence?" Asked oldman Rodger as the carriage slowly moved over some damaged part of the road. "Eaaaaaaaaaaasy little girl,""Your question is reasonable; while I was leaving the ruins, I came across a group of people and, let's say, disturbed whatever they were
'I can't say I'm prepared for this many people,' Siphex reflected as he neared the Longfoot Inn's entrance. pushing the wooden door, Siphex was greeted by a vast, vibrant, and raucous environment upon entering the Inn; inside, there was a large area supported by several wooden pillars with large crystals hanging from them, illuminating the area. The place was packed with customers of different ages and backgrounds at numerous tables. Looking around and observing the chaotic situation of the inn, Siphex was about to take a step forward when someone remarked, "Welcome to the Longfoot Inn, you must be a tired traveler, we have food, drinks, and comfortable beds, what can I help you with?" From the side, a feminine voice said. When Siphex turned around, he saw a female beastkin in a waitress uniform bringing a tray with multiple mugs, smiling at him. "I'm looking for some information," mumbled Siphex, ensuring that the cowl covered the majority of his face. When the waitress heard Sip
Siphex rose up from the table and decided to leave the inn, thinking, 'I'm hoping the drake's horns would bring me enough mana stones.'As soon as Siphex had made up his mind about going to the alchemist, he stood up and walked away from the table, heading for the exit. However, as he walked between the tables toward the exit of the inn, he remembered the two suspicious guys from earlier and cast a glance in their direction while he was walking, but they were not there, since their table was empty.'Did they leave as well....eh?' Siphex's thoughts were interrupted, though. He acidently pumped into one of the servers who was holding a tray of beverages, forcing her to slip and drop the drinks on a nearby table crowded with individuals, as he was not paying attention." Ahhh," shouted the waitress as she leapt to her feet and apologized profusely to the guests at the table as she began to wipe up the spilt beverages.'Sh*t, forgot this place is too packed,' siphex mused as he shifted hi
