Free Web NovelChapter 392: Chapter 290: The Power of the Divine Skill Prototype
Seeing such clear gains, Su Ze became even more enthusiastic about grinding monsters.
As he killed beast after beast, he finally encountered his first Tier 4 beast!
It was a brightly colored Crab Beast, clad in heavy armor and covered in sharp spikes. Its pair of massive pincers were like guillotines.
And the one fighting the Crab Beast was none other than Mrs. Yun.
Although Mrs. Yun had become a Saint-level Overlord, she was still new to the rank. Not only had she not had much time to upgrade or strengthen her skills, but she also hadn’t absorbed any Tier 5 extracts. As a result, her power was at the very bottom of the barrel among Overlords. Facing the Tier 4 Crab Beast, she failed to display any of the advantages inherent to the Intelligent Races.
She could only manage to hold the massive crab back, preventing it from attacking the other Dongli soldiers. To actually kill the Crab Beast, she would have to wait for backup.
"Sun Xiayun, you’re not doing so well," Su Ze teased.
"You little brat, cut the crap! Hurry up and help!" Mrs. Yun snapped. ’If I could actually beat him right now,’ she thought, ’I’d definitely give him a taste of some motherly love.’
Su Ze was in no mood to waste time bickering with Mrs. Yun; he was busy trying to grind monsters. "Step back," he said immediately. "I don’t want you to get caught in the crossfire."
Mrs. Yun quickly retreated, giving Su Ze some space.
Su Ze lifted his foot and stomped down on the large crab.
The large crab bristled, its spikes standing on end, and raised its two great pincers as if to pierce the sole of Su Ze’s foot.
Unfortunately for the beast, Su Ze wasn’t falling for it. He might look like he was made of flesh and blood on the surface, but his body was just a form simulated by his Liquid Life ability.
’I’m made of water, so why would I be afraid of getting pierced?’
BAM!
With a dull thud, Su Ze’s massive foot stomped down hard, pinning the Crab Beast beneath it. He even pressed down with extra force for good measure.
With a sharp CRACK, fissures spiderwebbed across the Crab Beast’s hard shell, and what looked like delicious crab roe oozed out.
Having already killed tens of thousands of beasts, Su Ze’s power had long been amplified to a terrifying degree. If nothing else, the force of that single stomp had definitely reached the Venerable level.
Su Ze lifted his foot and fired an Electric Current Cannon from a distance, completely finishing off the half-dead Crab Beast.
A massive amount of flesh-and-blood energy was absorbed by Su Ze. The energy from this single Tier 4 beast was equivalent to that of one or two thousand ordinary beasts.
But what caught Su Ze’s attention even more was the sliver of golden energy mixed in with the flesh-and-blood energy!
’Damn, that’s a lot!’
’This is as much as a whole week of training!’
’What a score!’ freewebnovёl.ƈom
Mrs. Yun watched from the side, completely stunned. The Tier 4 beast she could barely even fend off hadn’t lasted two moves against Su Ze.
’Doesn’t that mean I wouldn’t last two moves against him either?’
’Has the gap in our strength really grown this wide?’
It was a good thing Su Ze didn’t know what Mrs. Yun was thinking, or he would have surely told her: ’Have some confidence. You wouldn’t even last a single move.’
Su Ze didn’t linger. He couldn’t go more than ten seconds without a kill, or his Bloodthirsty skill would be interrupted.
Killing that Tier 4 beast had given him a taste of the rewards, and he knew that hunting high-tier beasts was far more valuable.
’A Tier 4 beast was that lucrative... so what about a Tier 5 beast?’
This dangerous thought couldn’t help but surface in Su Ze’s mind. He was actually setting his sights on the Tier 5 beasts.
’I definitely can’t kill a Tier 5 beast right now, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a chance. If I keep killing beasts nonstop, maintaining the continuous buff from Bloodthirsty and letting the power accumulate, it might not be impossible to kill one.
’Besides, with the Dongli Saint Envoy, a Venerable Powerhouse, helping out, all I need to do is snatch the final kill...’
Thinking about it this way, he felt it was entirely possible.
Right now, there were only two Tier 5 beasts on the entire battlefield, and both were currently occupied by the Dongli Saint Envoy.
Su Ze began to adjust his grinding route, continuing to kill beasts as he moved closer to the Dongli Saint Envoy’s position.
