790 A final tes (1/2)
After defeating the legendary tier beasts, even with the first kill reward, Quinn wasn't even close to levelling up to the final stage. There were times when they were out on their training and a demi-god tier beast was approaching them. Using his inspect skill he knew so, and somehow Chris would know as well, as he had warned them and the two of them were running before it arrived.
The thing was, even after using his inspect skill on the demi-god tier beast, he still didn't receive an instant level up reward. Which meant as long as Quinn used all of his powers and abilities, the system believed it should have been something Quinn could deal with.
Right now, it looked like obtaining the demon tier crystal was the only thing that could level him up. Still, Quinn was conflicted with how strong a demi-god tier beast would be.
There was one thing that did worry him slightly, maybe the demi-god tier beast Quinn had seen at the time wasn't strong enough. If they ran into a humanoid one, or maybe something similar then it would definitely be a problem.
”Will I be taking it on my own?” Quinn asked. He wondered if there was a chance he would have to use his shadow abilities to get out of this one.
Chris started to laugh, a deep laugh from within and fell to the floor punching the ground. Quinn felt like it was an overreaction, but Chris was often this way.
”Come on man, you can barely beat legendary tiers, and honestly I've never really fought a demi-god tier beast myself, even I don't think it's something I can deal with on my own. Of course I will be joining you on this one, and I will be using the demon tier weapons as well.”
Gulping, now Quinn was worried. Was Chris just bluffing about this? Perhaps he thought due to him having the demon tier weapons there was no chance he could lose.
Still, Quinn had no idea of the extent of Chris's full power. He hadn't seen him use the third stage, nor what the third stage of Qi was capable of, and Chris hadn't seen Quinn's abilities.
'Maybe it won't be too dangerous?' Quinn thought. He did have one thing to worry about, how much time had passed being down here. The others might have already left the place, or they were busy looking for him.
Quinn would hate it if the Cursed faction came down and were suffering trying to find him. The only thing that didn't make him worry so much, was Sil and Sam. With Sil's strength they could deal with anything apart from a demon tier beast, and with Sam's smarts they would never risk bringing everyone down to a place like this.
While the two of them were walking around the jungle with Quinn following Chris' lead. Quinn wanted to ask Chris some questions he hadn't asked before.
”Chris, have you tried to look for a way out of here? And I mean recently?” Quinn asked.
”I already told you everything. I tried, but even if I found a way out I don't think I would leave yet.” He replied. ”Not until I taught that damn crab a lesson.”
Apparently, Chris still had a grudge towards the crab for bringing him down here in the first place. Through their time together Quinn had found out a little bit more about him. He didn't say if he came with others or not, but did say he tried to take on the Crab demon tier beast. When it was planning to escape, he jumped and held onto the crabs back only for the crab to drag him down and he eventually passed out. Later on he woke up and found himself in this place.
The two of them had been walking around for a while now and what was strange was, like the days before they hadn't run into a single legendary tier beast. There were though, a couple of emperor tier beasts that had approached them.
These were beasts similar to horses in appearance that had bodies made of a stone substance and green plants growing from their bodies. They would be able to control the vines and plants from their bodies to trap their enemies before stabbing them with the sharp single long horn on their head.
At first, Quinn stepped forward, thinking this was a chance he could practice his Qi use, but Chris placed his hand in front of him and went up ahead instead. The horse charged forward with its horn pointed out and was running quite fast. When it got within range, vines from its body started to tangle around Chris's arms.
”Where the hell are all the beasts!' Chris shouted, as he ripped the vines and held out his hand. When the horn hit the palm of its hand, it didn't pierce through but instead it crumbled to pieces until he was able to hold the head of the horse.
