Talent Swallowing Hero

After reading the information on his newly awakened talent, Leo muttered with a slight smile and read it again.

‘Ding,

Talent Name: Poison Tempest (Level 1).

Talent Element: Wind/ Poison (Speical-type).

Effect: 1) The user can summon a violent windstorm for five minutes filled with poison that could poison even the elite class beings.

Note: More effects will be unlocked at higher levels.

There was only one effect; however, Leo knew how powerful it could become.

‘With this new talent, I have another mass destruction talent.’

Leo could not help but think about his other talents like [Mighty Combustion], [Earth Manipulation], [Call of the Undead], [Heavenly Fire Purgatory], and two beast transformation talents that had destructive talents and skills.

Overall, Leo was becoming a war machine that could destroy armies with each one of his talents.

‘It is good to have more mass destructive talents as it would be greatly helpful for the upcoming World Assessment.’

Leo was not worried about the single target talents because he already had a few of them and had enough skills.

Moreover, it’s just a beginning for Leo because there are other worlds with higher grades, and there will be high-level world assessments in the future.

‘I can use the [Supreme Innate Wind Elemental Fruit] on this newly awakened talent; however, I need to upgrade it to level 9 as soon as possible.’

Soon, Leo came out of his thoughts about the future and thought about the fruit.

Leo has a one-month time limit before the effects of the [Supreme Innate Wind Elemental Fruit] and the [Supreme Innate Earth Elemental Fruit] expire.

‘I only need one more special talent and a normal talent to upgrade the [Talent Promoter] to level 7.’

Nevertheless, as long as he upgraded the [Talent Promoter] to level 7, Leo assumed he could upgrade them to level 9 with the millions of [Promote Points] he accumulated.

Even though Leo was not sure whether he could upgrade his talents to level 9 with a level 7 [Talent Promoter], he believed he could do it._-.

Leo also knew that to promote talent in the Advanced Class, he needed to spend a lot of [Promote Points].

However, he was not worried as he already had millions of [Promote Points], and he would be accumulating even more in the next few days.

‘For now, I will just focus on getting another special talent and a normal talent.’

Leo came out of his thoughts and realized something else, ‘Now, I don’t need to focus on the wind-type monsters anymore as I already got what I want.’

One of the main reasons he started the hunt in the wilderness was to get a special type of wind-type talent such that he could use the Supreme Innate Wind Elemental Fruit.

Since he already got what he wanted, Leo could end the mission to hunt the wind-type monsters and beasts.

‘I just need to focus on increasing the potential of the three talents, [Mega Terra Bull Transformation], [Poison Storm], and [Earth Manipulation].’

Since [Earth Manipulation] only needs around 20 percent of the potential to reach the peak level 9, he added it to his list of upgrades.

‘Ding,

The host consumed 11 level 1 supreme-ranked Wind Serpents and awakened a skill [Wind Speed].

‘Ding,

The skills [Wind Speed] and [Acceleration] are similar. Try merging them to get a new and powerful skill.

After consuming the remaining 11 level 1 supreme-ranked Wind Serpents, Leo awakened a new skill which was not a big surprise as he had already expected.

However, he got a skill that could be merged with another skill.

‘For now, let’s just focus on devouring the corpse.’

Since two of his skills had fulfilled the requirements to upgrade to level 9, Leo wanted to devour more corpses and upgrade them to level 9.

‘Swoosh’

With that thought in mind, Leo walked out of his [Secret Dimensional Space] and started devouring the Wind Serpents’ corpses at an incredible speed.

‘Ding,

The host used [Absolute Devour] and consumed 1000 rank 8 Wind Serpents; however, he didn’t gain anything.

‘Ding,

The host used [Absolute Devour] and consumed 210 rank 9 Wind Serpents. The host has successfully awakened a new skill [Wind Bomb].

‘Ding,

The [Absolute Devour]’s effect has successfully triggered three times from consuming the Wind Serpents’ corpses.

‘Ding,

The chances of triggering the [Absolute Devour] will be reduced to one percent while consuming the Wind Serpent’s copses.

Leo didn’t take much time to awaken another skill, reducing his awakening chances while consuming the Wind Serpents’ corpses.

However, Leo was already satisfied with the special talent and skills he gained from the Wind Serpent.

‘The Wind Serpent King might come at any time.’

Leo increased his devouring speed, hoping the Wind Serpent King would come out of the canyon.

[Gale blast]

‘Swoosh’

As Leo continued to devour the corpses to increase the level of his skill, the powerful winds from the canyon came out and drifted towards Leo.

‘Slash’

Even though Leo was on high alert regarding the Wind Serpent King’s attacks, he could not dodge the incoming Gales.

Leo’s body was covered in cuts as blood oozed out.

[Fire Healing]

Gritting his teeth, Leo summoned a fireball and started healing those cuts as he coldly looked at the canyon.

‘Looks like he is finally coming out.’

Even though Leo’s entire body was covered in cuts, they were healing at a good speed. Moreover, Leo had consumed so many corpses, and his body was filled with energy. So, Leo was not worried his lost blood would affect his battle prowess.

‘Hiss’

“Human, I don’t know who you are and where you got that Supreme Innate Wind Elemental Fruit; you have messed with the wrong Beast Hero.”

Soon, a huge serpent head came out of the canyon as it hissed at Leo.

“Sutin, come out and take care of this beast.”

Nevertheless, Leo didn’t hesitate to summon the Terra Bull Tyrant as he already knew he was not a match for the Wind Serpent King.

“I will let the two of you have a good time. Don’t disappoint me.”

After finishing his words, Leo continued to heal his injuries.

“Yes, master.”

The Terra Bull Tyrant looked at the huge head inside the canyon and pawed the ground displaying its eagerness for the fight.

‘Moow’

After nodding his head at Leo, Sutin bellowed at the huge serpent head of the Wind Serpent King in the canyon and rushed at him.

“What? The Terra Bull Tyrant is following the orders of a rank 9 wild human?”

The Wind Serpent King was shocked when he saw how Leo ordered the Terra Bull Tyrant, one of the four bestial rulers of the Beastnet.

“I need to escape.”

There was no hesitation in the Wind Serpent King as he hurriedly tried to escape through a narrow pass in the canyon.

“Where are you trying to escape?”

Sutin bellowed as he jumped into the canyon with his huge body, stomping on the Wind Serpent King’s tail, escaping into the narrow hole.

‘Hiss’

The Wind Serpent King hissed in pain; however, he didn’t hesitate to cut his tail to escape deeper into the hole. Except for the Wind Serpent King, no one knows where the narrow passage leads, and Sutin can’t enter it because of his huge size.

“Master, that b*stard is faster than I expected. I am sorry I failed to capture it.”

Sutin thought Leo would be angry and might scold him. So, he hurriedly apologized to Leo for failing to capture the Wind Serpent King.

“Sutin, actually, you did a good thing.”

However, to Sutin’s surprise, Leo praised him.

“What? But I failed to….”

“Yes. You failed, and it was a good thing.”

Leo smiled slightly and said, “For now, let’s rest here. Soon, you will know that you did a good thing.”

“What?”

The Terra Bull Tyrant looked at Leo with a curious look and thought, ‘I have to think about it and find out what it was as soon as possible.’

Sutin’s goal in following Leo was to become an intelligent beast hero capable of not getting fooled by others.

So, he put his head into thinking, trying to figure out what was good about failing to capture the Wind Serpent King.

“Let’s rest here for a while before clearing more monsters in the wilderness later.”

As the Terra Bull Tyrant was thinking hard, Leo said they would be resting here.

However, Sutin was fully focused on his thinking. So, he didn’t bother to reply to Leo.

‘…’

Leo shook his head at the bull.

Because of the violent winds in the canyon, no other beasts resided in the canyon other than the Wind Serpents.

Therefore, after massacring all the Wind Serpents, it became an empty place where Leo could rest.

“Skye, there are no violent winds in this cave; you can rest here before we go on our new adventure.”

After helping the rank 9 flaming lion in a cave, Leo found a good place to sort his new skills and upgrade his talents to level 7.

‘Hiss’

‘Hiss’

However, just as he settled and wanted to sort his new skills, Leo heard the hissing sounds from above.

‘Huh? Did the Wind Serpent King come back already?’

It’s been around 30 minutes since the Wind Serpent King escaped through the narrow passage currently guarded by Sutin.

Even though the hissing sound came from above the canyon, Leo felt it was Wind Serpent King.

“B*stard, come out and fight if you dare.”

As Leo was about to come out of the canyon to check, he heard the Wind Serpent King’s voice and revealed a cold smile.
