Chapter 324: Going to be fun
"Inventory! Sword!" He called out and a katana appeared in his hand. 'I managed to turn that legendary tier crystal into a sword for myself after increasing my adventurer rank to the high A along with the Fang hunters to an A rank guild.
From now on, whatever crystals we find, will go towards the guild so they can craft more weapons. And besides, this sword is technically the best and the craftsmanship that Dame put into it is splendid.' he thought as he stared the sword's features.
The Katana blade, made from the crystal core of the legendary tier beast he had battled against, shimmered with an ethereal light. Its curved silhouette radiated potent energy, with a glowing hamon and delicate, swirling hada patterns. The blade's aura surged forth like a tempest, rippling the air and speaking directly to the soul.
"Now let's go see what owned that weird aura I saw." He said as he quickened his pace towards the dark cave. He passed more ragged features of the cave and some bones on the floor with even weird shaped skulls laying around partly broken.
Without slowing down, he suddenly came into an opening with three different paths in front of him. One in front of him, two on either side of him.
"Now that I'm inside, the signal from the drone is broken so how on Earth should I choose where to go?" Jake wondered as he looked around when an idea suddenly struck him.
"System! Activate Qi sense!" He called out and immediately, his perception increased as it felt like he had another sense added to him as everything suddenly became clearer.
"Bingo!" He mumbled and then picked the entrance to his right. Running in, his feet were constantly hitting some liquids that felt like water but he wasn't able to discern because of how dark the cave was.
Jake kept relying on Qi sense to lead him while he kept running ahead and finally, he could see a bright light in front of him and jumping through, he suddenly came to a halt by skidding on the floor and he was met with a view of a huge open cave with crystals embedded in the walls giving off a lit up area.
While in front of him were about two dozens of beasts standing in front of a circle which had a bigger beast in it.
"Oh? They were more of them. I guess the drone wasn't able to really pick up on them since it is not that good." Jake said as all the beasts turned to growl at him.
"Inspect!"
{Inspect: Gronk: A hulking, four legged creature with scaly, brown skin and razor-sharp claws. Its eyes glow like embers and it can swallow a man whole}
{Abilities: Speed and powerful jaw with throat that could swallow a man whole}
{Tier: Advanced tier}
"So these dozens of beasts are advanced tier beasts. Then what about the other one, why are they protecting it?" He wondered and then he activated inspect skill on the beast in a circle.
{Inspect: Gronk}
{Tier: Advanced tier (on the cusp of evolving into a king tier)}
"Oh?! So that's what was giving off that aura and that's why… it is on the cusp of evolving. Which means I need to finish it quickly before it has the chance to." He mumbled and then dozens of beasts were about to make their charge.
"Void!" He called out and a black shadow rippled out beneath his feet and then about 20 beasts were all raised up growling at the other beasts. Enjoy new stories from My Virtual Library Empire
"Take care of them." Jake said causally and the 20 beasts all dashed towards the two dozen beasts and a huge battle erupted.
'Let's see what two different species of advanced tier beasts can do… this is going to be fun.' he thought as the advanced tier beasts he had summoned were being agile.
They were a wolf specie so they were naturally fast as they dashed in fast and swiped their paw at the Kronk and would move back fast but the Kronks were equally fast as for each Kronk that died, two wolves fell.
Immediately a wolf fell, a Kronk dashed forward and grabbed the wolf by the legs before it could escape and chomped down hard before swallowing it quickly and digesting it.
'Hmm. Those Kronks are exceptionally fast.' Jake thought in amusement as a wolf swiped its paw at the jaws of a Kronk sending it skidding before a wolf appeared behind it and used its powerful jaws to rip through its legs and then killed it afterwards.
Before jumping back but unexpectedly landing in a Kronks mouth and then getting swallowed afterwards. The battle continued like this tensely and then not wanting to waste time, Jake lifted his sword up.
"This should be able to contain it without damaging it." He mumbled then he looked out at the 5 remaining beasts from his side while at least a dozen more Kronks.
"Void!" He called out and a shadow rippled beneath the feet of his beasts that were fighting and then they sunk in.
Immediately they sunk in, the Kronks were now confused as they began looking around in confusion when an energy descended on the beast causing them to shiver while Jake's sword was glowing brightly.
"Qi Slash!" He called out and a huge crescent yellow slash came out and crashed into the beasts killing them at once.
{XP granted}
{200 XP granted}
"Tch! So they only worth a few XP. Useless!" He said when he suddenly felt a heavy pressure on him as the crystals on the wall began flickering in and out and then a loud growl was heard coming from in front of him.
"Shit! I forgot." He mumbled as he could see the advanced tier Kronk that was on the cusp of evolution standing up with its eyes glowing bright red.
{Inspect}
{Specie: Kronks}
{Tier: King tier}
"This is going to be fun." He smirked and then the Kronks dashed towards him quickly.
