Then he climbed another tall tree to look for his next prey. This ti, their levels were a little higher than the usual patrol team. There was their leader, who was a level 3.
It took a bit of ti and massive injuries before he managed to kill the Lizardman and his team.
Repeating the sa tactics, he started hunting for more and more patrol teams, over and over again.
He was getting strong so incredibly fast that even he found it hard to believe.
It wasn't until it was down to the last of the patroln that he slowed down.
Unlike the other groups, this team seed more alert. Their commander was a larger Lizardman with red-tinted scales and nurous battle scars.
Occasionally, he would raise his head to scan the surroundings with his slit eyes.

"As expected, I was right."
It was his first ti seeing an Elite-grade monster. The red-scaled leader would surely be more difficult to deal with.
However, Lucian wasn't scared. There was not a single hint of fear in his face, but rather excitent. The more difficult his opponent was, the stronger he becos!
Lucian thought, a sadistic and cruel smile on his face. In his eyes, the monsters were simply stats and experience points.
However, he didn't want to be careless. A direct attack would be foolish despite his regenerative abilities.
The Elite Sentry might make so sort of signal to the main camp before he could eliminate them all.
'I need to separate them.'
Lucian reached down and grabbed a fist-sized stone. With careful aim, he hurled it deep into the forest on the opposite side of the clearing.
"Crack!"
The stone crashed through branches, creating a commotion that imdiately caught the Lizardn's attention.
The red-scaled commander hissed loudly, pointing three of its subordinates toward the disturbance.
"Sssss-kree-kah!"
The three Lizardn cautiously moved into the forest, weapons ready. Thirty seconds after they disappeared into the underbrush, Lucian made his move.
He dashed forward with unbelievable speed, his feet barely touching the ground as though he was simply a ghost. His newly evolved 30 points in agility was no joke!
The first Lizardman never saw him coming. All it could see was a dark blur as sothing cold pierced through its throat.

Before the creature's body hit the ground, Lucian was already moving. He spun around, using the montum; his spear turned into an arc as he redirected the resultant force. He is spear moved so fast it was a blur as it slamd against another Lizardman.
"Bang!"
The Lizardman's bones shattered, and his organs erupted from the force as he was sent flying towards the Elite Lizardman's direction.
The Elite Lizardman's reaction speed was fast. And although he had been startled, he slapped his stone sword at the corpse, deflecting it.
But that distraction had bought Lucian enough ti.
"Bam!"
The ground shattered as Lucian transford into a blur.
In just a split second, he had closed the distance between him and the Elite Lizardman.
"Nine Revolving Dragon Spear: Third Move, Coiling Strike!"
His spear twisted in a spiral pattern, creating the illusion of multiple strikes converging into one single move.
The Elite Warrior quickly raised its shield in defense.
"Crack!" "BOOM!"
The shield directly shattered as shockwaves blasted in all directions like a hand grenade.
The spear's montum continued as the spearhead stabbed into the creature's shoulder, drawing blood.
"SKREEEE!"
The Elite howled in pain and rage, its claws lashing out with surprising speed.
Lucian could only see a blur as the claws raked through him like a huge fork.
[ 1 Physique]
The attack sent Lucian staggering backward. However, before much blood could spill, the injuries closed up in the blink of an eye.
The remaining Lizardn finally ca to, and they instantly surrounded him, their weapons forming a circle of death.
"Hehe—"
Lucian was only able to chuckle softly when two spears pierced him simultaneously from opposite sides. Pain flashed through his body as he felt his organs slicing into various parts.
[ 1 Physique] [ 1 Physique]
Without hesitation, he swept his spear in a wide arc, catching a Lizardman across the throat. Green blood sprayed as the creature collapsed, gurgling.

The Elite Sentry was smarter than its brethren. Seeing Lucian's regenerative ability, it backed away, hissing commands to the others.
The Lizardn suddenly retreated as they ran toward the encampnt.
'They're going to alert the village!'
Lucian couldn't allow that.
With a burst of speed that surprised even himself, he overtook the fleeing Lizardn.
His spear flashed in the sunlight as he struck again and again, each thrust finding a vital spot.

Only the Elite remained, its red scales now stained darker with its own blood. It hissed defiantly, drawing a serrated bone sword from its back.
"I've never killed an Elite-grade monster before. What kind of stats would you drop?" Lucian eyed the red-scaled Lizardman greedily.
The Elite Lizardman was furious as it pointed its bone sword at Lucian and spoke in a surprising tone. "Dead!!!"
The Elite was even faster, its movents fluid and practiced as it reached Lucian in the blink of an eye.
The bone sword whistled through the air as it sliced through Lucian's neck at bullet speed.
"Whoosh!"
Strands of hair floated in midair as Lucian's afterimage vanished like a puff of smoke.
'That was close!'
Even with his regenerative ability, Lucian suspected he might actually die if he lost his head!
The Elite warrior pressed its advantage, its sword blurring into a series of afterimages as it attacked.
Lucian smiled as his leg's muscles expanded.
The ground shattered as he flew towards the Elite Warrior with his spear in hand.
The wind shrieked as his spear twirled through the air and whipped towards the Elite Lizardman Warrior's mid-side.
