The Invincible Full-Moon System
Chapter 744 Residents Of The Majestic CityCongratulating him for biting off Zero's head and essentially eating a living being for the first time, the system has given him 3x Devour chances that he can use to completely absorb any creature's powers.
It has been confirmed now that he can even absorb a cursed creature and devour its abilities.
Although Rex is not quite sure how strong the Witch of Chaos is as he hasn't actually met her directly, it's best for him to be cautious and meticulous in every step he takes toward her. With no adequate information at hand, he needs to take a more careful approach lest others suffer the consequences.
Knowing the nature of cursed creatures, the Witch of Chaos is probably very resilient.
The Executor doesn't have the nature of cursed creatures, he adopts an overwhelming power that can triumph over others. If Rex can surpass him in terms of power, then the Executor would lose to him, or at least for now that is what he can deduce from the Executor.
But contrary to the Executor, the Witch of Chaos is definitely more troublesome.
Rex has learned from the cursed creatures that he faced that there's a need for a particular way of killing each different cursed creature based on the curse empowering them, killing them is not as easy as decapitating their heads.
A fifth-epiphany cursed creature is a point where all cursed creatures can be troublesome.
Since even the fifth-epiphany cursed creature that is living in the wild can already prove to be difficult to deal with, Rex can't imagine how he troublesome killing the Witch of Chaos which he planned to do.
Moreover, there are also the two 'pets' she has that should be very strong.
'I need to find a certain way to defend and kill cursed creatures effectively' Rex thought.
Dispersing that thought from his mind for a moment, he then focuses on the mutated white snake hissing towards him with a blue holographic interface on its side. But it was not the mutated white snake's stats.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLooking at the drop-down menu beside the mutated white cobra, Rex put his finger on his chin as he reads the description of each one of the skills. Most of the mutated white cobra's skill is useful against fire, but that is not what he was searching for.
Rex is searching for defensive skills against cursed creatures or elements in general.
As he was going to fight against the Executor, more resistance or amplifying-resistance skills are very desired on top of the Elemental Body skill that he gained. For the Witch of Chaos, he needs curse-related skills to try and counter her.
But this mutated white cobra has none that is useful, so devouring it is not desirable.
There's one skill that the mutated white cobra has related to the curse, and that is the Mind of Insanity. It provides the mutated white cobra some resistance to cursed energy below the sixth-rank epiphany, but Rex doesn't need it as he has the Eternal Curse already.
On top of that, the Mind of Insanity has a heavy drawback for the cursed energy resistance.
As the name indicates, its drawback is insanity and numbness of the senses.
Since this mutated white cobra is from the Humming Damned Forest, it was not a surprise that it has this considering that all creatures inside of the forest try to attack Rex even though his body is leaking with power.
Turns out it was the Mind of Insanity that made them act like that.
HISS!!
"Alright, alright, I'll kill you if you're that impatient" Rex grumbled nonchalantly as the mutated white cobra hisses at him once again. Without giving him time to get ready for its attack, the snake slithered like a white flaming line and opened its maw wide, revealing two venomous fangs.
Disregarding the disparity between their strengths, the mutated white cobra attacks first.
Expecting to skewer Rex with its long-jutted venomous fangs, the mutated white cobra clamped its massive jaw. But the moment it got close, a painful sting infiltrates the inner part of its lower jaw.
Swish!
Not able to see how it happened, the mutated white cobra's jaw was pinned to the ground.
Rex didn't do much as he kept his stand without a hint of worry on his face, fighting this kind of power is beyond easy for him now. With one swift motion, he stabbed the silver eye in his hand into the mouth of the mutated white cobra.
Although it was insane and tries to break free, it was unable to do anything.
In a desperate attempt, the mutated white cobra shoot a jet of venom from its fangs which caught Rex by surprise but he managed to dodge it by tilting his body to the side. The venom flew past him and landed on the ground behind him.
Glancing over his shoulders, he finds that the venom is even able to melt the ground.
"What a fierce creature... the Mind of Insanity makes this mutated animal even scarier than it already is" Rex mutters while looking at the pinned mutated white cobra, a light flicker can be seen in his eyes as he marvels at the mutated white cobra's fierceness.
But then his eyes widened realizing something, "Will it be able to fit? Maybe it can..."
Remembering that he still needs to fill the pit on either side of the bridge with mutated animals, he was thinking whether this humongous mutated white snake would be able to fit in the pit.
Deciding that he would try it out, Rex smiled at the mutated white cobra, "It seems you're in luck!"
Out of nowhere, the mutated white snake was surprised when Rex suddenly pull out the silver eye and grabbed its neck without restraint, and started dragging it away. Under the strength of Rex's arm, it was unable to do anything.
Even though it tries to coil Rex's body, there's simply no way of stopping him.
"Stop flailing already, you should be glad that I'm not going to kill you like the rest" Rex said with a light chuckle as he courses through the neat and clean cobblestone street, making his way back to the castle.
A moment later, Gelmar and the others saw Rex walking through the main street.
Knowing that their new master is very strong already judging from his appearance alone is filled with an air of mysteriousness, the three still gasped when they saw Rex dragging a building-size mutated white cobra by the neck.
It was a seventh-rank mutated animal, and yet he treated it as if it was nothing.
Something like this mutated white cobra can be considered a destructive force, able to annihilate an entire city. If Gelmar and the others meet it during their time in the forest, they would definitely not be breathing right now. Yet Rex treated it as if he was an experienced adult handling a newborn baby.
But considering that his enemies are outright terrifying, they should've expected this.
Upon reaching the foot of the hill, Rex jumped while still carrying the mutated white cobra and landed right in front of the castle's gate. With a wave of his hand, he opened the gate and walked inside.
Rex then looks into the pit on either side of the bridge with calculating eyes.
'It would definitely fit, I didn't realize the pits are that deep and big' Rex thought while he gazes into the pit. Now it's clear to him that the mutated white cobra, despite its size will definitely fit inside the pits.
While he was doing this, the other Supernaturals inside gazes up and saw a shocking sight.
Since the group of Supernaturals is still living down the pits, they witness the sight of Rex looking down at them while holding a monster by the neck, this outright terrifies them as they squeezed into the corner.
Each of them starts to shiver, hoping to the Origin that he's not planning to feed them to it.
Not only them, but Gelmar and the others are also worried.
Rex then quickly gestures to the three of them to come down from the castle's wall. Noticing this, the three didn't idle and swiftly went down from the wall but they were having a bit of difficulty approaching Rex due to the struggling mutated white cobra.
"Go tell the others to get out of the pit, I'm going to place this gorgeous thing in there"
Upon hearing this, the three unconsciously gazed at the mutated white cobra before they nodded their heads repeatedly. With their help, it takes only five minutes for the group of Supernaturals to be brought out from the pit.
As soon as the pit is empty, Rex threw the mutated white cobra inside.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCrash!
The mutated white cobra caused a small tremor from its sheer weight as it crashes to the bottom of the pit. Considering its length which allowed for greater mobility, there was no doubt that it can escape from the pit if it wished to.
If it wanted to, it can get out of the pit rather easily if there are no measures taken.
But Rex already anticipated this as his hand glowed with black lightning, he then control the mana effectively and covers pits with a layer of a black lightning barrier. 'I guess this will do for now, at least until Gistella recovered' he thought.
Blitz!
HISS!!
Gazing into the pit, the mutated white cobra attempts to escape but gets zapped instead.
Nodding his head in affirmation, Rex cast a slight glance to Gelmar and the others before he walks back into the castle, "Remember what I told you earlier, I don't want to hear any bad news when I came out of training"
"Yes, Lord Rex!" Gelmar, Linthia, and Dindora replied in a union.
As he was about to reach the entrance to the castle, Rex stopped remembering something. Materializing somekind of a lamp from thin air, he turn his body sideways and tossed the lamp at Gelmar which he caught.
Looking at the lamp, Gelmar was confused as to what this thing is for.
"If the lamp light up then there's a powerful cursed creature nearby, alert me when that happens" Rex said as he waves his hand lightly and enters the castle before the entrance door closed behind him.
Upon hearing this Gelmar eventually nodded his head, "I'll do as you say" he mutters silently.
But immediately when Rex was swallowed by the entrance door into the castle, Gelmar glanced over at Linthia and Dindora as there was an inexplicable look on their faces. It contains a mix of shock and disbelief.
For a moment there, the three of them stood still while the other Supernaturals watched.
Just when one of the Supernaturals was about to ask something, Gelmar, Linthia, and Dindora didn't say anything and quickly heads over to the castle's wall, completely disregarding the other Supernaturals.
Standing at the top of the walls, the three of them spoil their eyes on the majestic sight.
No words came out of their mouths as they watch this majestic sight in silence, the feeling inside of them can't be expressed through words alone. One of the Supernaturals from the ground, an Elf followed them to the castle's wall and was also surprised by the majestic sight of Dargena City.
It was supposed to be trees filled with terrifying creatures, the Humming Damned Forest.
But now the sight that was supposed to be the Humming Damned Forest that inflict trauma on them that was lost inside of it turned completely into a majestic sight of tall buildings with beautiful architecture, this sight was not expected by the Elf at all.
With a trembling voice, the Elf then asked the three, "W-What happened...?"
"Something unbelievably good has happened to us" Linthia replied as she kept her eyes staring straight, she then turns around to face the Elf with a surreal smile on her face. "W-We're going to be the first ones that are going to live in this city..."
