1265 Opportunity 1 (2/2)
”Come come come, I'll heal your wounds.”
Leona could only watch from the sidelines all this while. Now that both Saszt and Garen were hurt, she instantly felt as if she could use her abilities now. She rushed forward happily.
This was the result that Garen wanted. He stood next to Saszt.
Leona raised her hand before them while a pure white water flowed out and gathered there. The fluid floated in the air before quickly condensing into a ball of water that looked as if it was milk that had gathered in one place.
Bleurgh.
A large mouth spread open in the surface of the milk ball before it exerted all of its strength and vomited some translucent light white sticky liquid. This sticky liquid dispersed into numerous little water droplets that flew towards Garen and Saszt continuously.
”It looks so gross…” Saszt's entire body felt uneasy.
”Don't worry, don't worry. This is merely a fixed process of this spell. It's not as if a real creature is vomiting this out…” Leona whispered as if she was slightly out of breath.
Garen felt a psychological block as well. However, he could only endure it to heal his wounds as soon as possible.
Among the sticky water droplets that flew out, almost one-third of them flew towards Saszt quickly while the remaining majority flew on to Garen's body.
Most of these water droplets covered the surface of his body before burrowing inside through the cracks of his dragon scales and penetrating into his skin.
Garen instantly felt as if his entire body had cooled down, making him extremely comfortable. The aching areas received some effective relief.
This sensation lasted for several minutes before disappearing quickly.
”How miraculous! My injuries are actually healed!” yelled Saszt beside him in a happily surprised tone.
Meanwhile, Garen glanced at his statistics.
'Safive -- Strength 21(11), Agility 15(12), Vitality 11(11), Intelligence 17. Potential 69%. Soul Limit 170
Level 1 Draconic Aura. Level 1 Arcane Art Basics.'
”Its effects are pretty good. It restored an average of four points throughout my attributes during this one time. It can probably restore everything fully if I use it another few times.” However, Garen knew that it was better not to reveal the fact that he had left to hunt alone without informing the others. Anyway, Leona had the Dragonheal Spell that could be used thrice in a day. Since he was always getting injured, he could heal himself quickly as long as he used it in the future. Meanwhile, he had also gained a deeper understanding of Level Four Giant Iguanas. Hence, it would not be a major issue because Saszt would be there to support him as well.
This group of Dragon Whelps would not provoke Level Five Giant Iguanas anymore.
”Come over and look, you guys. This Dragon Whelp's corpse really looks like Burdock from the third class.” Boris was investigating a Dragon Whelp's corpse on the side. Only half of its corpse remained because the rest had been chewed up.
The other Dragon Whelps gathered over there. They looked at the corpse of the Dragon Whelp that was gnawed beyond recognition.
Leona was slightly afraid while Saszt was burning with fury as his fighting spirit increased. Only Boris and Garen remained calm.
”It was probably killed by a Level Five Giant Iguana. We need to be careful after this because there may be Level Five Giant Iguanas nearby. Don't act rashly,” Boris whispered.
The three remaining dragons nodded.
After that, the group of Dragon Whelps continued hunting. They did not venture any deeper into the mountain range but wandered around the nearby area instead. They were looking for Level Four Giant Iguanas in particular to practice their skills. However, it seemed like they were not as lucky on the second day because they had only encountered one lone Level Four Giant Iguana. The others that they encountered were either in packs of three or four or were Level Five Giant Iguanas instead.
If it was not for the White Dragon Whelps excellent vision, the situation would have truly become tragic once they approached the Giant Iguanas.
They had merely hunted one Level Four Giant Iguana before the daytime scenery turned dimmed. Boris continued leading the other three dragons in search of a hiding spot. He had hunted here before so he knew the location of the safest hiding spots.
This time, they found a precipice in the middle of a cliff before they dug out a cave with all their might and burrowed inside. It would definitely be impossible for Giant Iguanas to discover them in terrains like this because they could not fly.
Garen did not dare to sneak out and hunt alone this time anymore. Instead, he was waiting for the Crystal Core inside his stomach to be absorbed completely. He would obtain one new attribute point because of this. Moreover, when he added it to his vitality, it would speed up the healing process of his bodily wounds.
********************
Inside a deep cave in the depths of the icy snow
Darkness, coldness, and chills that were as sharp as knife edges spun slowly in the depths of the cave endlessly like an enormous twisting whirlpool.
On both sides of the cave, numerous sets of imposing knight's armor were positioned upright in a crouching stance with one knee on the ground. These sets of black knight's armor were empty on the inside while they held broad and heavy knight's swords with both of their hands. The edges of their swords pierced into the ground deeply. Seemingly countless strange symbols were engraved into their sheets of armor in a densely-packed manner. These symbols resembled tadpoles that were constantly swimming around. They were unimaginably strange and were all releasing faint auras of death.
”It's like… there's a kind of smell…” Suddenly, a gloomy voice echoed from the depths of the cave. It sounded like an old man that was about the die as the voice was hinted with an air of exhaustion and decay.
After a short period of silence, the voice sounded again.
”It's a powerful soul… A powerful Aberrated Soul. It smells good… Smells so good…” Greed and longing were indirectly revealed in the voice.
”Baschin.”
Pfoo…
Among the sets of knight's armor that were kneeling on one knee on both sides of the cave, moss green flames were ignited in the eyes of the helmet's one of these armors.
He stood up and drew his giant sword out of the ground before taking long strides towards the path in the center of the cave. He faced the interior of the cave as if he was waiting for orders.
”Master, I await your instructions.”
