Rise Of The Hoarder Chapter 17 Prey

“Let’s begin!”r

Using my already boosted-up stats, I lightly sped through the hallway, reaching the stairs in no ti.r

The bloodied corpses of the monsters had already vanished. It must be due to the system, after all, they dissipate and beco demon cores as well as other items. It only made sense that the blood would dry up too.r

There were no monsters on the stairs, so I hurriedly sped down the third floor and reached the second.r

“Now this is the tricky part,” I said to myself.r

This floor was crawling with Demons!r

As I stepped into the hallway of the second floor, I saw multitudes of the creatures. They all glared at instantly, baring their fangs at .r

From their numbers alone, they should be over fifty. There was no way my earlier strategy would work here. Even though it worked out last ti, I was sure that sooner or later I would have been overwheld.r

“Direct confrontation is unavoidable! I’ll have to fight eventually!”r

Might as well start now.r

“Skriiiiiakkkk!!!” One demon yelled, gathering the attention of the others.r

“SKKKKKRIIIIAKKIAKK!!!” They all let out their disgusting screeches.r

It would only end up being a waste of ti to look at all of their Status Information. Ultimately, they would all end up dead anyway.r

I slightly turned the two rods I held on both hands, twisting them in anticipation of the fight.r.

Since the stairs were located in the middle of the building, coming down from them ant being surrounded by Demons on both sides.r

Encircled by these bloodthirsty monsters, I stood with resolve, taking a battle stance, and waited for them to co to .r

Without wasting ti, they lunged in my direction, initiating the coming bloodshed.r

I instantly threw the two rods I held toward two Demons who charged at the forefront, using the full force of my muscles to land a fatal hit on them.r

Instantly, I activated my [Skill] ‘Claw Attack’ and stretched my hands toward both sides of the hallway.r

My five fingers brought forth claws, piercing ten monsters in an instant, as their blood splattered all around the space where the battle was occuring.r

My coordination has improved, so I ensured that my attacks would hit them in vital spots.r

Retracting the spikes, I bent my body to avoid the several claws that lunged toward from both sides.r

The remaining Demons, upon realizing the threat I posed, maintained their distance and kept attacking with their innate skill.r

Fortunately, my agility was quite high now, so I evaded the sharp nails that were being endlessly lunged at .r

“[Subspace]” I called.r

The blue window buzzed in front of instantly.r

My eyes were not focused on the [Subspace] window, though. Any loss in concentration on my part will lead to instant death, since about 40 Demons remained, And they were constantly hurling their attacks from a distance.r

“Heh, not a problem!” I mumbled, still dodging their assaults.r

During my ti in the house, I didn’t just pay attention to all my [Stats]. There was sothing very essential that I needed to master. It nearly cost my life during the last round I had with the Demons.r

“I need to fully morize the contents of each slot within [Subspace] and the exact location they are in,” I muttered to myself in the solitary space.r

Since I need to select the contents I require before [Subspace] can respond, it would be highly inefficient to use my Gift in a fight. In fact, it was impossible, especially when concentration was going to be needed in the battle.r

However, if I could morize each of their location within [Subspace] and coordinate my hands accordingly… Even without looking at [Subspace], I would be able to bring out whatever I need without affecting my focus.r

It took grueling ti and practice… I was frustrated at a point, but I kept at it.r

“I have 1,600 intelligence points, after all! Might as well put those numbers to good use!”r

Even now, I haven’t completely mastered the whole thing. But, as for the items I needed right now… That won’t be a problem.r

“Sharpened tal Rods!”r

I tapped on that particular icon five tis, and instantly, the weapons appeared above the monsters I concentrated on.r

“Skriiki?!” The Demons exclaid as five of them instantly died, impaled by the weapons of my creation.r

“Skriiiiikaaaa!!!” The Demons growled in anger.r

“Perfect, I was waiting for that!” I grinned.r

Sothing important I noticed about the Hell Kobold Spawns was the strong attachnt they have towards mbers of their kind.r

That was why, even when they were afflicted by the Status Condition of , they refused to resort to cannibalism.r

How ironic of savage beasts.r

But, that worked to my advantage. The rage and anger they felt toward , who rcilessly annihilated their brethrens, I want it.r

The Demons, abandoning all care, dashed towards in fury.r

They brought out their sharpened claws and all launched them at the sa ti.r

“That’s a lot… But…” I grinned.r

I brought out my Claws and parried the several ones they used.r

>SkraaaaaaSPLAT!BAM!!!
