Chapter 172: New Evolution Material! (2/2)
Under the eyes of Oliver, Arthur, Lucy, and the others, Elliot casually hurled another energy blast towards his enemy, and as this one was made out of a hundred units of spiritual energy, meaning that it packed more power than the ones before, the resulted explosion caused its head to be blasted apart into pieces. Pieces of crystallized blood, shards of its broken down scales, and black flesh fell here, there, and everywhere.
[You've slain an Elite Evil Spirit Monster, Shadow Hunter]
[You've gained the right to extract its essence of life]
[Congratulations! You've created a new magic technique: Consecutive Energy Blast]
Like its name, using this technique, Elliot could dish out a volley of energy blast, not too slow, not too fast, but good enough to deal massive amounts of damage. The only downside was that it was too draining on his energy. However, he could always restore it by sucking in the energy present in nature.
Elliot utilized his low level of authority over the life of others and immediately extracted the essence of life from its carcass. [+3000 units of the essence of life]
Now, he had enough to create two more celestial energy channels!
”I should look for a safe place after rummaging through the den of nightmare panthers.” He decided to find a safe hideout before progressing by two levels.
”Hurry up and move your butts. Collect its crystal-like blood, scales, fangs, core, and gallbladder. Everything is poisonous. So, Cover your hands with whatever you've if you don't want to die.”
Elliot ordered, and his slaves stepped out of their golden clouds, covered their hands with clothes, gloves, and whatever they had, and started to pick up the important body parts of the snake. Its blood was a material needed to create both poison and anti-inflammatory drugs. Melting its scale into liquid metal and pouring said liquid into a mold of some shape would result in the creation of weapons stronger than artifacts in the magical realm.
Lastly, its gallbladder was an evolution material that carried potent poison, enough to kill anyone that consumes it! However, Elliot could use it without any worries as he was immune to such poison!
”Here you go.” Oliver handed over the gallbladder to him.
To his surprise, Elliot didn't cover his hands with anything and picked up the evolution material with twinkling eyes. He happily stored it in his subspace, thinking that using it at a later time to awaken to the superpower of creating and secreting poison wouldn't be a bad deal!
”Let's go.” After a while, when they finished collecting everything useful from its body, they continued on their journey.
Along the way, they met the snake's family members, probably its son and daughter as both of them were weaker than it.
”Hiss!” ”Hiss!”
The gigantic snakes coldly hissed and straightened their body, towering over Elliot, his slave, Lucy, and the people behind them. Because their physique was too big, a black shadow of doom was cast upon all of them. One of them was pink, a blessing of her mother, and the other was as black as its father.
The monsters gave off an intense murderous aura, the airs of a hunter, ones strong enough to cause their hair to stand on edge. Tia's bristled from fear, unable to even look away from them. However, the hearts of the others were at peace as they believed in Elliot, who did not disappoint them at the least and destroyed the two monsters before they could even use their magical abilities.
[You've killed two Shadow Hunters in the Spirit Warrior Stage]
[You've extracted their lifespans and earned 1500 units of the essence of life]
Not wanting to disregard the monsters he just killed, he once again, ordered the ones under the safety of his wings to act useful for once, and they dismantled them, separating the trash from the useful stuff that they handed over to him. Lucy, Oliver, and Arthur weren't his slaves and had no obligation to follow his words, but to lessen the burden on the others, they helped in the dismantling of the bodies of the Spirit Monsters.
”I wish we won't encounter another monster.”
”We probably won't.”
”Why do you think so?”
”Because the beast's den is only a small distance away from here.”
He carried the nine humans and also one monster on his back like a true champion! After traveling for thirty or so minutes, they finally reached their destination.
