The night for Adriana was a little busy, but she returned in ti for a good night's sleep.
When dawn ca, Ajacky was ditating, gradually feeling sothing strange in the air, but she couldn't understand what it was.
And when Adriana got up, she gave Ajacky sothing to eat, then the two went deeper into the forest.
But this ti, Adriana saw more red dots on the [Map], prompting Ajacky to face them.
Compared to the encounter with the Corrupted Wolves, there weren't monsters as powerful or in large numbers.
So Adriana left them to Ajacky, watching her struggle and seeing her constant improvents, while others climb a ladder rung by rung, Ajacky seems to be jumping 2-4 rungs at a ti!
She learns very quickly, where she already managed to have so partial control over her own focus, but as she gets used to the enemies and understands that there is nothing to fear, they are just unconscious beasts that fight on instinct.
Her moves are very simple, dodging them is easy with the slightest level of focus, she just needs to rely on her physique and senses.
Adriana was happy with this progress, it was a productive day, Ajacky lost her fear and apprehension when fighting creatures.
The best thing would be to face so people, to end the burden of killing soone for good, but she understands that things have to go smoothly.
(Note: I decided to change how creatures' HP is shown, unless they are enemies inside Dungeons created by the System where they follow the rule, there will be no accurate data, only 1~100%!)
(Reason: When sothing or soone hits Adriana, the System calculates what the damage margin of what hit the Player would be and this affects her HP, but when the Player hits a creature from Earth or one of the worlds, this calculation is not done, as such, [Gar's Body] beca even more advantageous and broken!)
...
On the 4th day, Adriana and Ajacky ended up bumping into another group of rcenaries, which were stronger and more experienced, there were around 15 of them.
They were facing 3 Volatile Bears, all above Level 50, much more powerful than the one Adriana had faced.
But Adriana used her wits, using the environnt against these colossal beasts, finishing them off without much mishap and that helped her reach Level 40!
"Thanks for the help!" - Said the leader of the rcenaries, a tall and muscular woman, with long red hair and a pretty face.
"No problem, but a tip, don't take their cores." - Adriana said calmly.
" I understand, you can stay." - Said the rcenary leader retreating, since she personally saw Adriana's strength.
Even if so of her subordinates are unhappy about this, what could they do? Adriana killed 2 of them practically alone and helped finish the last one.
"Ah, I don't want that bomb, look!" - Adriana said, advancing towards one of their backpacks, which left everyone alert, since Adriana was moving her things.
Then Adriana pulled one of the cores, which she gave a light squeeze, before throwing and
BOOOOOMMMM!!
A huge explosion sounded, along with an intense corrosive purple mist!
"I don't really know what's going on, but so kind of unstable energy is corrupting the creatures of the forest, making them stronger and more aggressive, causing grotesque mutations and worse, their Demonic Cores are unstable, they can literally explode at any mont. ti!" - Adriana said calmly.
"ThatSHIT!" - The rcenary leader roared in frustration, since in exchange for the lives of almost 10 companions, they thought they had profited a lot, but, in fact, it was a damn trap.
"Isn't there sothing we can do? That's over 2000 Gold Coins!" - Said a Halfling rcenary clenching her teeth and she wasn't the only one distressed.
"From what I can see, I find it difficult that after a few days, whoever manages the village has not had problems with these explosive nuclei, it is likely that they will not even accept them anymore, what you could do is try to purify the nuclei, but you would spend more resources and not would compensate.
Do the following, take the useful materials from the Volatile Bears, they are stronger and their bones are more robust, in the hands of a Magic Blacksmith, they can beco interesting Cursed Weapons, if purified, the created weapons or armor will be better than the ones of the sa type." - Adriana said calmly.
"Then we can't do anything, but what the hell!" - Shouted a woman of Orc blood furiously, followed by tears, as she lost so important companions due to greed.
"Go back to the village and report, say you found , I'm a kind of Mage, only more amazing. Say that so more volatile and unstable demonic energy is corrupting the creatures, turning ordinary animals into Demonic Beasts and turning Demonic Beasts into...
, I have seen it happen a few tis, I think with this information, you can earn so reward." - Adriana said calmly.
" won't you co with us? We can report together!" - Said the leader of the rcenaries.
"Sorry, but I need to train this bunny here and this environnt is perfect for that, I'm also curious to know what is causing this, as it seems like you've been in the forest for a long ti, when did you start to notice the difference in the creatures? " - Asked Adriana calmly.
The leader was thinking, until the Halfling said. - "About 10 days ago, we've been in the forest for almost 1 month, but 10 days ago, suddenly the amount of Demon Beasts increased and we had a lot of losses in that ti, but also we thought we had profited a lot
But then there was a giant squirrel foaming at the mouth, it was sudden and it killed one of ours in a brutal way, we killed it and found out it had a Demonic Core"
"Well then, you won't lose everything you got, it's been about 20 days, you must have hunted a lot!" - Adriana said smiling.
"More than 2/3 of the creatures we killed this month were in the last 10 days of the 2,000 that we thought we would, it's likely that we'll only be left with about 600~700 Gold Coins" - Said the leader sighing.
"But did you see anything suspicious? Like the vegetation being dead, trees with so kind of plague, anything weird helps." - Adriana said calmly.
They looked at each other, thinking, until one of them said.
"There was one night, I think it was 2 weeks ago, I was keeping watch at night with 2 others who are no longer here while they were all sleeping, we heard a strange roar coming from Demon Mountain, but due to the distance, we didn't think much of it." - Said an Elf calmly.
Adriana nodded, seeing as Demon Mountain is considered the center of the forest, that must be where the cause of these misfortunes cos from.
Adriana was thoughtful, initially she wanted to take Ajacky, but it will start to get more complicated.
"Can you take Ajacky with you? I'll check out the center, don't worry, she knows how to fight!" - Adriana said calmly.
"Oh, of course!" - Said the rcenary leader without hesitation.
"What?!" - Ajacky shouted in surprise and discontent.
"Bunny Bunny, the situation is much worse than I thought and since my goal is at the center of it, it ans I will encounter more and more Mutant Demon Beasts and I don't want you with
as I don't think I will be able to protect you!" - Adriana said calmly.
"But I can defend myself" - Said Ajacky clenching his teeth.
"You think you can defend yourself, until now you faced creatures in an environnt controlled by , otherwise you would be in a worse state than you are now, now stop thinking that you are strong, because it is far from being soone strong! " - Adriana said calmly, looking at the others present.
"Where I co from, many here would only be considered Elite troops, only their leader could categorize herself as soone strong, you are nowhere near half her Level!" - Adriana said pointing to the leader of the rcenaries.
While Ajacky is at Level 22, but the rcenary leader is at Level 64.
Ajacky was embarrassed, so one of the rcenaries said.
"You're pretty arrogant saying that, I know you're strong, but there are limits to how strong soone can be!" - He said to Halfling with his hands on his hips.
Adriana looked at her, then said. - "I know a person who naked, would let you all hit his body with your weapons for half an hour, then you would see that they didn't even leave a scratch, I know another who can move at such a shocking speed, that it would cover 1 kiloter in less than 10 seconds!
Indeed, there are limits to how strong soone can be, but don't compare people's limits, everyone has their limit and there are those who are able to break that limit!
The Halfling was silent, thinking this was absurd and she wasn't the only one, Adriana didn't bother and threw a bag to Ajacky.
"Follow your orders and be obedient, I'll be back in a few days, 10 at most, so don't procrastinate, I hope you're a little stronger when I get back!" -Adriana said smiling and soon blue wings appeared on her back.
This startled everyone and Adriana said. - "Again, don't compare people's boundaries darling, or you might end up having a heart attack!"
After saying that, Adriana rose several ters and flew towards Demon Mountain.
"SCREW THIS!" - Adriana cursed about 400 ters away, this joke cost her all her AP.
Not to ntion she also landed badly on the ground, losing about 200 HP, but she's perfectly fine, she just needs a minute to recover.
Standing up, Adriana started advancing towards Demon Mountain!
And on the way she made a point of hunting all the creatures she saw along the way, gaining a lot of EXP and gradually leveling up.
And Adriana was happy with her decision to send Ajacky with the rcenaries, not even 1 hour after she started her advance alone, she already found herself with creatures above Level 80!
[You have acquired the title "Purger of Evil(I)"!]
[Purger of Evil(I): Kill 100 Tier 1 Evil Creatures!]
-
10% Damage to Evil Creatures!
"Wow, that ca out of nowhere!" -Adriana said in surprise as she reached Level 44.
Along with all this, Adriana received an alert, she had received them before, but this one was different and she knew what it ant.
Full of smiles, Adriana opened her Inventory, going to the 2nd page, the 1st page is where her important items are organized, from the 5th page and beyond, are all kinds of diverse items that she has been collecting in the last month , when she starts to have her workshop, she will see what she will do with all this.
But the 2nd page is special, at the mont it was empty, but now, there's only a black cover book there, it's a Skill Book!
"The first of many!" - Adriana said smiling happily and read the information in the book.
[Skill Book
Demon Blade]
- Description: Summon a Demonic Blade that grows with its wielder!
" for real? Is that a sword?" - Asked Adriana sighing.
[Not! The "blade" in its na encompasses all lee weapons that contain a blade edge, simply put, you can shape the "Demon Blade" into whatever you want, but it will stay that way forever!]
"You an I can create my ultimate weapon and if I want to I don't know, reach Legendary Grade, I just need to spend a few hundred Skill Points?" - Asked Adriana.
[The Demon Blade is categorized as an artifact, but it will cost a lot of HP, SP and MP, the more powerful it is, the higher its cost!]
"A double-edged sword, interesting will it shape itself just by
learning the Skill or will I have to forge it with my hands?" - Asked Adriana.
[You can choose!]
"Choose?"
[Choose what process you want, in the end its form and special abilities will be linked to your choice, the System recomnds you to forge it with your own hands, so the Demon Blade will be more suitable for your hands, just like the Skill Level initially already can start high depending on the process and materials used!]
Adriana smiled, now that's fucking good news!
But of course, Adriana won't do anything for now, she left the book untouched, she took a look at the 3rd page, where there are armors, all rubbish, on the 4th page she saw weapons, more rubbish!
Adriana continued advancing and encountering clusters of monsters, which she annihilated, seeing her EXP jump by leaps and bounds.
And her luck seed to be up to snuff, as she acquired yet another Skill book:
[Skill Book
Demonic Armor]
- Description: Summons a Demonic Armor that grows with its wearer, once worn, it cannot be taken off and no other type of armor can be worn, but it can beco invisible and tangible.
"System, what do you want
to beco? A Demon Knight?" - Asked Adriana laughing.
[The dropped items follow an algorithm that focuses on the properties and capabilities of the dead target, you just killed a Corrupted Armadillo with absurd defense, naturally sothing related to defense would co.]
"I think I already know what will co next" - Adriana said.
[Skill Book
Demonic Shield]
- Description: Summon a Demonic Shield that grows with its wielder.
Adriana decided not to say anything, since less than 1 hour later, that book fell again.
And a while later it was a book called [Demonic Arc].
"Looks like I'm gaining an arsenal here, I'll soon gain the [Demonic Rifle] or [Demonic Catapult]!" - Adriana said sarcastically.
[It won't be possible due to the lack of Firearms in this world, as for "Demonic Catapult
