52- Harvesting and Killing 1 I was observing Armelia as she drank the MP potion, to see what happens when someone other than me drinks the MP potion. But after waiting for a few seconds, there was no reaction from Armelia. Armelia was looking at me weirdly, then asked, “Hey, why don’t I feel any taste when I drank this so-called ‘Energy drink’? Are you sure you gave me the original drink and not any faulty one?” Hearing Armelia’s words, my expression became weird. Because I never thought that there will be no reaction when someone drinks an MP potion. And if there is no reaction when Armelia drank the MP potion, then I wonder if the HP potion will be the same? Although I wanted to experiment with HP potion, I held back that thought. And the other reason is that Armelia is doubting the authenticity of the MP potion. I mean like, do I have to cheat her into drinking something faulty? I don’t know whether to laugh or cry when I saw her doubting me. So, I can onl
53- Harvesting and Killing 2 Right now, I am stuck in a very conflicting situation. A part of me wants to escape from here right away as my instincts are shouting at me that I should not mess with these snakes. While the other part of me, tells me to take the risk and get the ‘Purple Dome mushroom’, & I could also get tons of Exp from killing them and delay my HP reduction issue. As I was struggling to decide what to do, Armelia’s voice came “Hey listen, I have a plan, I will try to attract those snakes and take them away from here, while you hide here for some time and when the time is right, you sneak attack the remaining snakes. After you are done killing them, take that mushroom. We will meet back at the hidden cave, as it is the only place we know properly.” Hearing this, I was startled. And my eyes went wide open. As this plan is although feasible but damn crazy and risky. And I don’t get it, why suddenly the very stupid and naïve Armelia, made this kind of
54- Harvesting and Killing 3 I took a quick glance at my ‘Status’ window and a smile appeared on my face. As I saw that I leveled up 3 times and there are 91 (Free stat Points) still left for use. But unfortunately, I cannot use them all at once because if do, then my body might not be able to handle it. Otherwise, I could have become so strong that I can easily kill this group of snakes and go back to help Armelia and maybe I could even kill the Demi-Human stage snake boss. ‘Hiss’ ‘Hiss’ The group of snakes hissed angrily at me. I can conclude that these groups of snakes are really angry for attacking and killing their companions. I kept my guard up, as there are still a dozen snakes in front of me. And any mistake I make, will result in me being surrounded and then death. I took a look at the snakes and saw that there were 4 Evolver stage snakes still in the group. And these 4 are the ones I have to guard against. There are 2 (Low Level Evolver Stage) snakes and 2 (
55- Nothing is Fair in ‘Love and War’ ‘’Nothing’s fair in love and war''. Especially in the cultivation world. There are many situations, where a single person is surrounded by many people and the single person can get attacked from anywhere. There are no rules when fighting with the enemy and that is especially true when there is greed, hatred, and other things involved. Of course, sometimes there will be situations where two people agree to fight one on one, for their grievances, or a bet they made between themselves or for a woman or some other reason. Most of the time the rules are followed. But what if, a person between the two, has a huge background? And in the fight, he is about to lose? Consider that this person is from a powerful clan or sect or some powerful organization. And these powerful clans, sects, and organizations can do anything to save their face, people, or interests. Then here that person’s background will interfere with the fight, and gradually the
56- Exp Farming 1 ‘ding’ ‘Refinement stage monster Killed' '1730 Exp' ‘Refinement stage monster Killed ‘1630 Exp' ‘Refinement stage monster Killed' '1660 Exp' 'Level up' ‘Level up’ ‘Obtained 60 Free stat Points and 3 extra Free stat Points for leveling up 2 times consecutively’ After killing 3 Refinement stage snakes, I retreated again. Right now, there are still 5 snakes alive. 1 Refinement stage snake and 4 Evolver stage snakes (2 Low level and 2 Mid level). Seeing that only 5 of them are alive, one of the mid level Evolver stage snakes, went to the snake which I earlier attacked with the spear and pinned it to the ground. It wrapped its tail and pulled the spear out and rescued its companion. ‘hiss’ After the mid level snake was done rescuing its companion, it hissed and gave some kind of command. And all the snakes marched towards me. And when they were close, they launched an attack on me. When I saw them still attacking, I sneered. Because
57- Exp Farming 2 After adding the ‘Free stat Points’, I turned back and locked on to the injured Low level Evolver stage snake, which was still near the ‘Purple Dome Mushroom’. After a little thought, I decided to kill it later. And then locked on to the other Low level Evolver stage snake which was chasing me along with the other 2 mid level evolver stage snakes. I took out another spear from the ‘Storage Box’ and as the snakes got closer, I threw the spear toward one of the mid level Evolver stage snakes and attacked the Low Level Evolver stage snake. Once upon a time, someone said: “A team is as strong as its weakest member.” And I followed the same principle. The spear was like a distraction to the group of snakes and as they were focused on dodging the attack, I slashed towards the Low level Evolver stage snake. ‘Ding’ ‘4340 Exp.’ ‘Level up’ ‘Level up’ ‘Obtained 60 Free stat Points and 3 extra Free stat Points for leveling up 2 times consecutively.’
58- Evolved? ‘ding’ ‘Due to being in contact with the (Purple Dome Mushroom) and possessing low resistance against poison, the practice sword was contaminated with the poison of (Purple Dome mushroom) and a mutation occurred.’ ‘(Practice sword) has obtained 2 weapon effects’ ‘First effect: Poisoning’ ‘Second effect: Paralysis’ Reading this, I was stunned and then gradually came back to my senses, as a smile appeared on my face. First of all, I never expected that something like this would happen. I used the ‘Practice sword’ just because it was the weapon with the lowest stats that I have and even if it got damaged, I wouldn’t feel any distress about it. And to increase my fighting experience, I will have to constantly face many new and stronger enemies. And as the level of my enemies increases, I will be needing stronger weapons too. So, any weak weapons that I have, can either be sold or used for miscellaneous things or given/lent to someone else. The same goe
59- Revealed After a few minutes, I reached the pond through which the hidden cave can be entered. First, I had a look at the surroundings and saw that there was no abnormality. Since there was nothing wrong, I dived into the pond and swam back to the hidden cave. ‘splash’ As soon as my head came out of the water, I sensed something coming toward me at a high speed. Realizing that I was in danger, I did not even look at what it was and dived back into the water. ‘splash’ With the little bit of visibility I had, I found that it was a stone thrown at me. I moved away from my initial position so that the attacker will not be able to lock my position and take another shot at me. As I was moving in the water and trying to guess who attacked me. Armelia’s voice rang “Orochi is that you? I am sorry, I thought it was someone else.” Hearing that it was Armelia who attacked, normally I should have gotten angry but I controlled my emotions because I need the complete ‘Pur
