Undying Warlord

Chapter 374 Rich

Dilan’s body ached heavily as he massacred the monsters all around him. They were not capable of defending against his attacks in the slightest, especially with much lower stats than he had.

While the Sea Dogs were not good at defending themselves, the exact opposite was the case with the crabs Dilan had faced.

Their natural defenses were powerful and Dilan had to use his entire physical strength to reduce their body into crumbs of bone and flesh. This created a gory massacre, where all kinds of body parts ended up splattering through the surrounding area, filling it with the smell of death.

The beach was soaking wet and dyed bloody red as Dilan shot over it.

Wherever he passed blood fountains erupted, and even the Tier-3 Leaders were not capable of protecting themselves against Dilan’s attack. The Tier-3 Sea Dog died the moment Balzaki’s strength had increased to the extent where the unique greatsword was sharp enough to cut through the hide of a Tier-3 existence.

With [Death toll] every single monster killed with Balzaki was used as a temporary form of nourishment to strengthen Balzaki. The strengthening was potent enough to turn a Gold Tier-2 weapon into something that could easily cut through all the Tier-2 monsters around him.

Meanwhile, even the Tier-3 Crab leader faced issues enduring the mighty thrusts and blows that were executed with Balzaki.

Thus, after a total of 90 Seconds had passed and the effect of [Thunder Step] had finally worn off, Dilan ended up standing in the middle of a huge bloody feast.

“That was nice!” He exclaimed taking a deep breath as he activated [Regeneration] with several units of Mana. Not a single being of the two groups was left alive and Dilan was at last free to collect their Essence crystals.

“If I had already advanced to Tier-2, absorbing all these Essence crystals would have probably allowed me to level up to Level 10,” Dilan imagined, laughing lightly as he continued to collect the Essence crystals of the monsters.

Simultaneously, he paid attention to his surroundings. Even if the commotion the Sea-Dogs and crabs had caused didn’t attract a horde of monsters, it might be somewhat different if the scent of blood of 300 and more monsters were to be carried by the ocean breeze all over the island in a moment.

That was also why Dilan hurried to collect all the Essence crystals before he took his leave. [Switch]’s effect had also worn off and it would take several minutes before he could use it again.

Thus, Dilan focused on regenerating the Lifeforce he had been drained of before.

“I will have to pay 1000 Essence points every single time I want to join a fight consisting of Tier-3 monsters…that’s annoying,” He thought out loud, realizing that his strongest weapon was the Silver Serpentine Blade.

Unfortunately, temporarily upgrading the Silver Serpentine Blade cost him 10,000 Essence points rather than 1000 because the weapon was already powerful enough to inflict injuries to Gold Tier-2 monsters if used properly.

Meanwhile, Balzaki was barely powerful enough to injure Bronze Tier-2 monsters, and that too only if Dilan wielded it like a madman.

Once Dilan finished collecting all the Essence crystals, he slowly ran away from the bloody feast he had caused. His plan was to run around the abandoned island to find out how large it was.

This would help him a lot in the future because he was pretty sure that a bunch of Tier-4 monsters lived on the abandoned island. Even if it was not actually possible to run away from them, Dilan was pretty confident that he could set them up against each other and let them finish each other off while he watched the show.

‘If all the monsters here are as territorial as I think they are, it won’t be too difficult to survive…I hope,’ He thought.

He sold the 300+ Essence crystals of the Tier-2 monsters that had been Gold Tier-2 monsters at and above level 25, and the two Essence crystals of the Leaders, who had been Bronze Tier-3 monsters at level 15.

Dilan was rewarded with 65,400 Essence Points, which was an unexpected haul.

“If I keep fighting like this…shouldn’t it be possible to collect hundreds of thousands of points quite easily?” Dilan wondered, barely controlling himself from running in search of more battles.

Subconsciously, he was even reconsidering fighting Tier-4 monsters. That was insane but Dilan was exactly that, crazy to fight even if his life was at stake.

“My stats will be too low to fight a Tier-4 monster though…All of their stats should be at or around 500, even for ordinary Tier-4 existences…” Dilan mumbled while heading in the opposite direction of the battlefield.

Ordinary Tier-2 existences were not something Dilan cared about anymore. Only the most powerful Tier-2 existences were likely to be considered his opponents, and those were something Dilan could hardly find.

But that was perfectly fine right now, after all, he was on the abandoned Island, where powerful monsters reigned supreme.

Dilan’s vigilant attitude toward the Abandoned Island slowly dispersed. His mind was preparing for an all-out war, and that was simply because he finally found some powerful opponents once again.

The war against the Vampires had been way too boring and Dilan was happy to face some powerful Tier-3 monsters. He could roughly gauge that the limit of a Tier-3 existence’s stats was around 500.

Thus, encountering some Platinum Tier-3 existence at the highest level would definitely be interesting, even if it was likely to end disastrously for Dilan.

He was ready to feel pain, and he could embrace it. After all, there were several means for him to temporarily increase his strength, using the Essence shop to his advantage.

There were a few things Dilan wanted to purchase from the Essence shop but everything was pretty expensive.

Thus, Dilan made his way through the outskirts of the abandoned island to search for more monsters to kill.

Time passed slowly and Dilan encountered far more monsters than he would have expected to see. There were many territorial fights going on all over the beach and Dilan chose to intervene whenever it was possible.

Sometimes, there were groups of monsters that were too strong for him to handle all by himself. His weapons were not strong enough to deal with more than 10 Tier-3 monsters, whose forte was a dense and highly-protective defensive shell. Breaking through it was simply not possible, even if he were to temporarily upgrade the Silver Serpentine Blade.

Dilan accepted this fact for the time being and he chose to avoid the annoying groups of Tier-3 monsters. Hours had elapsed and the sun slowly disappeared behind the horizon.

It was getting dark and Dilan noticed a quick change in the atmosphere around the abandoned island. More and more monsters were now beginning to emerge from the waters with glowing eyes.

The vast majority of these marine monsters ignored Dilan as they charged in the direction of the forest, and only some of them attacked him.

However, those who attacked him were clearly more powerful than the monsters he had fought before.

Even the monsters that were the exact same kind as he had killed before seemed to have gained strength.

“Well, this is interesting!” Dilan mused as he readied himself for the next three days and nights because he was certain that he wouldn’t get even a millisecond of sleep in the next 72 hours!

Yet, instead of being frustrated about this, Dilan’s eyes were filled with excitement as they glowed lightly in the moonlight that shone onto him.

“In that case, I shall exploit you all!
