Chapter 117: Inspiration Pill, Beast King
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“This guy is tanky, has high damage, and is very fast too. If I punch it, unless I trigger a Brutal Strike, there won’t be much damage.”
The shield on Zhou Chen’s body had already broken and disappeared. Every time he was hit by the giant’s attack, he would suffer heavy injuries. This was the result of all the defensive passive skills on his body reducing the damage. Ordinary Survivors would have died in one hit.
“I can only rely on the corpse poison, Rebound, and Brutal Strike passive skills to continue chipping at its health. When it’s heavily injured and can’t run anymore, I will use fire.”
At this point, even though Zhou Chen was injured in many places, it was impossible for him to retreat. The giant’s situation was not better than his. He believed that he should be able to win if the battle continued.
He decisively threw away the steel ironwood spear that was broken by the other party’s claws and charged forward again.
The two figures, one large and one small, engaged in battle again. Explosions constantly sounded in the air.
Sometimes, Zhou Chen would be sent flying by the giant’s claws and break the nearby trees. Sometimes, the giant would be knocked to the ground by the terrifying force that Zhou Chen suddenly released, emitting muffled groans and bone-cracking sounds.
The battle lasted for two minutes before it ended. Zhou Chen, who was starting to stagger, spewed out flames to burn the fallen giant.
[You have killed the Tiger Demon. Reward: Low-grade Inspiration Pill.]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the Tiger Demon’s passive skills “Physique Enhancement II, Spirit Enhancement II, Giant Strength II”. Detected that they are superior to your current passive skills. They will automatically be replaced.]
[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the Tiger Demon’s passive skill “Beast King II”. Do you want to absorb it?]
Zhou Chen sat on the ground, breathing heavily. He took out a mid-tier healing potion from his inventory and drank it while reading the details of his rewards.
[Low-grade Inspiration Pill
Type: Low Grade Pill
This is a precious pill containing inspirations. After eating it, it will increase your aptitude and allow you to achieve substantial progress faster and easier in your cultivation.]
[Beast King II
Type: Mid bronze passive skill
The ordinary beasts around you will submit to you. You can communicate with them and give them some instructions.]
“Absorb!”
After reading the introduction of this new passive skill, Zhou Chen absorbed it. Then, he took out the low-grade Inspiration Pill and swallowed it.
The Inspiration Pill was only the size of a peanut. It was completely white and had a slight colorful reflective luster. It felt a little cool when he swallowed it. After eating it, Zhou Chen felt some changes in him which was difficult to describe. It seemed like his head had become clearer, or his perception of his surroundings had become sharper.
At this moment, Zhou Chen’s body had basically recovered to its prime state due to the mid-tier healing potion and passive skills.
He opened his character interface and did a quick calculation. He realized that his physique attribute had increased by 0.7, to 3.4, and his spirit attribute had increased by 0.6, to 2.7, after he killed the Tiger Demon. The strength brought by the Giant Strength passive skill was now equivalent to 1.9 physique, increased by 1.3, from previously 0.6. These gains were huge.
“The battle just now was really dangerous.”
Now that he had won, Zhou Chen still had lingering fear when he thought of the battle just now.
Fortunately, he had triggered two Brutal Strikes in a row and knocked the Tiger Demon, who was poisoned by the corpse poison and had suffered serious internal injuries from the Rebound, to the ground. Only then did he have the chance to breathe fire and burn it to death. Otherwise, if the fight had continued, he felt that he might have perished with the other party.
“Eating this Inspiration Pill can increase my aptitude. Does this mean that I can quickly gain basic mastery of the Fire Cloud Fist? It won’t take a month?”
Zhou Chen then thought about the meaning of the Inspiration Pill. This reward given by the system should be matched with the cultivation technique reward to allow the person who obtained the cultivation technique book to cultivate faster.
“But I’m not sure if I can learn many types of these cultivation techniques. If I can’t learn another cultivation technique after learning the Fire Cloud Fist, then I should keep it aside for the time being.”
Zhou Chen did not pay much attention to the cultivation technique he already had. It was not only because the source he had obtained it from, the red-robed young man who cultivated it was easily killed by him, but also because it was marked as ‘low grade cultivation technique’ by the system.
“My requirements aren’t high. No matter what, I have to obtain an ordinary high-grade cultivation technique. If I really can’t obtain it, I’ll just have to make do with mid-grade cultivation techniques.”
Zhou Chen was not very picky, but he really did not think much of the low-grade cultivation technique. He felt that there was no point in learning it.
“The plan now is to hunt the natives for good cultivation techniques and demons for Inspiration Pills.”
At this moment, Zhou Chen had already made his goal for this Survival mission. It was quite simple and crude.
The risks in this Survival mission are probably similar to what the suited man said. When I constantly hunt the natives, it’s easy to incite public outrage. Therefore, I have to choose my target carefully.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZhou Chen did not think that he was an arrogant person. He was not stupid enough to treat the natives of this world as lambs to be slaughtered and that nothing would happen to him if he went on a massacre. If he did that, he believed that he would definitely die very quickly.
“I wonder if this Tiger Demon’s corpse is still useful. Let’s hide it first.”
Zhou Chen stood up and moved the Tiger Demon’s corpse that had been charred black by the fire to a pile of rocks.
“Let’s find the animals here and ask if there are other demons around…”
Zhou Chen stood up and adjusted his tattered clothes. He began to search for nearby animals with the Bloodthirst passive skill.
He could communicate with ordinary beasts beside him and give simple instructions to them. This was the ability given to him by the Beast King passive skill he had just absorbed.
Relying on the convenience of the Bloodthirst passive skill, he quickly found an animal that looked like an elk. After he approached, the animal lay on the ground without daring to move, as if it was subservient to the power he emitted.
“Are there other demons in this area? Like that Tiger Demon that can take human form.”
Zhou Chen asked the elk-like animal.
The elk thought for a moment and made a series of grunts.
The sound it made was the kind of unintelligible sound that animals usually made. However, when Zhou Chen heard it, it conveyed a clearer message.
“Around… no… other… demons…”
“It’s as I expected.”
Zhou Chen was not surprised. Considering that two kings could not share one territory, this was normal.. The reason he asked was because he had considered the possibility of an accident.
