Chapter 126: The Sparrow Hunter 1000
Hadwin (Hell, group 4) - I think we are closer to the middle of the city than you guys, so we will wait here. Don't forget, there is a massive area that is covered in a poisonous cloud but you can pick an air purifier from side quest rewards. We found a few uncommon gear parts inside such a cloud.
Sset (Hell, group 4) -Understood, in a day or two we will start moving. But first, we will need to get our teamwork together and decide what to do with the natives.
Hadwin (Hell, group 4) -Sounds good, take care.
Brainiac (Hell, WhiteWing) -Hey, Hadwin, did you guys find Ligma?
Hadwin (Hell, group 4) -Huh, I don't think so? What's Ligma?
Brainiac (Hell, WhiteWing) -Ligma ba…
I turn off the community before Brainiac finishes his sentence and take in a deep breath. Goddamnit, I despise that annoying hideout.
Also, super thank you, Lily, my body feels like new! Well, it's weakened because of how hungry I'm getting and there's not much water, but hey, I'm still alive so there is at least sothing positive.
“Sa as before?” Tess asks while her javelin hovers behind her back.
There are currently only two of us and the main goal is to level up as much as possible. As during the good old tis on the first floor.
“Sounds good,” there is no need to say more, and finally, without feeling like my body is about to break apart, I send mana through it and start sending so of it to the Kinetic heart, imdiately using the energy I get to strengthen my body even further and to use it to propel myself ahead.
I jump from roof to roof, feeling the air hitting my body and I fly through the air I can't help but feel happy, and just for the fun of it, I release a massive wave of kinetic energy, breaking the roof I'm on and flying high in the air where I pause for a second, taking in the view before falling down and continuing to run.
The first monster Tess finds and points
towards is Gargoyle. A flying kind that is able to strengthen their bodies.
So to test it out I release the kinetic mana heart a bit more and turn all the kinetic energy it produces into strengthening my body. I increase my endurance and speed, the result showing imdiately as I dash at the speed of soone with a much higher stat in physical attributes.
Not even hesitating I jump only with the strength of my body and mana and fly through the air reaching the Gargoyle imdiately and grabbing its neck only to pull it down towards the ground with .
This ti I do not absorb the energy of my fall and only increase my energy further as my heart beats and sends waves through my body.
We crash through the side of one roof and fall on the street, the monster imdiately attacking . But there is no damage and I even take so energy from its swings to strengthen my body even further. The gargoyle continues to try to hit , to try to break my arm, to scratch .
Even without using [Armant], it doesn't hurt
with normal attacks.
I let it go for one more minute, increasing my efficiency a bit and testing if I can strengthen only one body part instead of the entire body. Then I use Symbiotic Transference upgrade of [Redistribution] to boost my strength and tear the monster's head apart from its body.
[You have defeated a Gargoyle - lvl 71]
Quite low level, but good enough for testing.
“Are you done? There are 2 more Gargoyles coming and one Alghoul.” Tess says, squatting on the roof over
and looking down with sothing that I identify as amusent.
I jump up and join her on the roof, “Can you only support
for a bit? I want to test a few things.”
“Sure, take your ti.”
“Thanks,” I say and dash towards where the other monsters are coming from.
This ti I feed my Kinetic Heart with more mana, around 40% that I regulate with Mana Regulator. Every beat of my heart sends plenty of kinetic energy through my body and before it poses any problem I turn it into a thermal one and a massive yellow fla blazes into existence, reaching far in front of
and roaring audibly.
I [Focus] and narrow the cone until it's as thick as my leg and shoot it towards the gargoyles that fly through the air, avoiding the fla that tracks them until I burn the wing of one of them and it falls to the ground, only to be hit by the full power of my fla and burned to ashes in a bit over two seconds.
[You have defeated a Gargoyle - lvl 75]
The other gargoyle charges , tattoos glowing on its body. It reaches
quickly and for a mont my flas disappear only so a shockwave of kinetic energy hits the monster and sends it flying away.
Quickly after I transfer the energy into thermal and the fla roars once more, burning the monster that continues to charge through them, its tattoos glowing more and more as I also increase the power of my flas that are getting stronger with every heartbeat of my heart.
I narrow the cone even further and continue to focus it on the monster's chest that slowly loses its arm, then leg, and finally falls to the ground, its body glowing red and burning, the heat palpable in the air.
[You have defeated a Battle Gargoyle - lvl 81]
There is much more kinetic energy that I was getting from absorbing from my mana orbs that I span around my body and it also allows
to focus more on skill usage. Plus I'm not even using the full power of this newest construct so that's sothing to be excited about.
Good! I would say it was worth it nearly dying because of it, well, and a few more things. But who watches that?
It's all in the past!
Now then, it's ti to level up my [Armant]
too.
I turn to the alghoul that is down on the streets and the mana projectile appears hovering over my shoulder I make it as big as an arrow and then add more of them. Screw efficiency, I have plenty of mana, don't I? I shoot them all towards the monster, further boosting them with the kinetic energy that my heart generates.
The street becos destroyed, obliterated by the rain of mana arrows, yet the monster still lives. Greenish flas flow all over its broken body that starts to nd.
Oh, I'm not done yet.
For the next ten seconds, I continue to boost dozens, hundreds of mana arrows towards the monster, destroying the street even further and then finally overwhelming its healing capabilities.
[You have defeated an Alghoul - lvl 84]
Next to attack is another Battle Gargoyle and this ti I try sothing different.
Mana flows from my body only to start forming into a shape of a javelin that is as long as my body and hovers to my right. I send more and more mana to it, making it denser and its color becos a darker shade of blue.
This ti even my [Mana Surge] activates and I give it as much kinetic energy as I can and shoot it at the monster that is on one of the roofs.
The javelin misses but then it just continues to fly and pierces through what seems like at least five houses then hits the ground and stab itself so deep only a little part is sticking out.
And only then it starts to slowly dissipate, the weapon dense enough to endure this all.
Did you see that, Tess?! My Sparrow Hunter 1000 is ready!
The young blonde woman doesn't seem to be too impressed and her javelin flies too, followed by a train of lightning that accurately pierces through the chest of the gargoyle and a burst of lightning flows from it, frying the monster that falls down dead.
Show off.
We spend the entire day hunting the monsters and slowly they start appearing stronger with even so nad ones in between them. I once again finish the side quest and imdiately drink the water and eat the little food I get, as the second reward I pick warm clothes again that I imdiately put on myself.
To complete the side quest again I need to kill 700 enemies, the system being true to its assholish tendencies.
But I do not despair. The reward for all this hunting is 5 levels and one level in [Armant] and surprisingly even in [Mana Infusion]
Both skills work really nicely together and the skill I learned from Sophie allows
to push my mana creations even further and infuse them with more mana and faster. Sothing I didn't think of but now when I use it it makes a lot of sense.
So with 4 levels missing to 100 and 2 levels missing to getting [Armant] to level 30, we return back to the hideout as it's already darkening outside. But that's not all. I'll take so rest, I'll drink so water and eat so food they got as the leech I am and then I will go outside and hunt.
I'll go and see what lurks around during the night.
Screw Savant's level 100.
