BXBX NOVEL Chapter 239 - Killing The Scale Snake
Who would have thought that the roar would be enhanced by the Ant Mask. He did not notice it before but now that he was using the Enraged Crocodile Roar right in front of its victim, he was able to see its enhanced effect up close.
He also realized that if he used the Skill up close to the crocodiles from before, he was sure that it would produce the same effect.
All of the holes of the Scale Snake were bleeding at the moment. Although it was not a severe bleeding, it should be enough to hinder the Scale Snake\'s fighting capability.
Utilizing the stunned state produced by the roar, Ban immediately proceeded to plunge the dagger into its eyes again. This time, it hit the mark precisely, causing the snake to cry in pain. One of its eyes was now blinded, while the other one also had trouble seeing due to Ban\'s Fist Penetration earlier.
Ban did not stop for a moment and continued to stab the head of the Scale Snake with the sharp dagger who has no problem piercing the prized scales of the snake.
And before the short duration of the Enraged Crocodile Roar\'s effect ended, the Scale Snake had already dropped to the ground, no longer breathing.
Ban looked at the dead body of the snake before he decided to collect it first. The partner of this snake should have realized the situation here already and he was not planning to stay for even a few more minutes because most of his skills were already in cooldown by now.
Defeating the partner Scale Snake would be doable but hard. Eva could be an option but she was still cultivating at the moment and unless it\'s an emergency, Ban was unwilling to disturb her.
Ban stored the dead Scale Snake inside the DImensional Storage Earring for now and decided to let the Unknown Egg consume it later.
He looked over at the nest and noticed that only a single egg remained there from the previous four. He smiled as he knew that Tria was the culprit behind the disappearance of the eggs.
With her extreme speed, it won\'t be a problem for her to collect them in an instant. She has three pairs of legs so Ban guessed that she might have used the three of them to steal the three eggs while the Scale Snake was distracted from fighting.
At this moment, Tria came back and instantly took the remaining egg from the nest before she went towards Ban. She landed in front of him and Ban, knowing what she wanted, immediately rode her back in an instant.
Just as Tria was about to fly away, Ban suddenly heard a commotion from the distance, followed by a high pitched shriek.
Who could it be other than the partner of the Scale Snake?
Hearing that, Ban only smiled triumphantly as he ordered Tria to fly away immediately.
A while later, a Scale Snake that was a bit bigger than before arrived at the scene. Seeing the blood and the empty nest at the center of the mini swamp, the Scale Snake released yet another ear-piercing shriek that even made the low rank creatures around tremble in fright.
And as for Ban and Tria, they were already two kilometers away. They arrived here in less than 3 minutes from the area where Tria dropped off the three eggs she took.
Seeing that they were already far away from the Scale Snake\'s nest, Ban allowed Tria to descend so that he could let the Unknown Beast consume the Scale Snake\'s dead body already.
To be safe, he also checked the kill confirmation notification, but unfortunately, the Scale Snake didn\'t have any Beast Core, much more a Skill Crystal.
Ban could only sigh as it seems that he truly lucked out from the Drainer Fox\'s Skill Crystal earlier. He was still hoping to get another one though.
Although his initial targets were all Lord Grade Beast, that plan had now changed due to the Unknown Egg\'s \'request\'.
Tria landed to the ground softly. Ban immediately jumped off her back before she stored her inside the Beast Tattoo to rest. He then summoned the Unknown Egg before he took out the body of the Scale Snake.
He placed the greedy Unknown Egg over the body of the Scale Snake and in an instant, the Unknown Egg consumed it with only a puddle of blood remaining.
Ban sighed at the loss of yet another hundreds of Gold Coins.
He then observed the Unknown Egg and after noticing no change from its appearance, he stored it inside the Beast Tattoo again.
He wondered how the Unknown Egg managed not get big when it had already consumed 4 dead Beast including the Scale Snake earlier. Knowing that he won\'t be able to find the answer for now, Ban decided to set it aside as he proceeded to rest and think for a bit while waiting for the Skill\'s cooldown to finish.
He squatted under a moderate size tree as he thought about the battle earlier. He thought about what could have gone wrong, what strategy he should have used, and other approaches that could ultimately lead to a better outcome than what had been seen earlier.
However, after thinning for a few moments and still could not come up with a better plan than earlier, Ban sighed and decided to let the matter go for now. He admitted that he wasn\'t a smart person, it was already enough that he was able to come up with that plan earlier. Of course, he also knew that he wasn\'t dumb so he imediately give up for now thinking that he would not be able to improve his strategy for the time being.
While waiting for the cooldown of the Skills, Ban did not waste his time idling as he took out the \'educational\' materials he borrowed from the library before. He then started immersing himself in it, and it was only 25 minutes later that he decided to stop reading.. The cooldown of all of his Skills has already ended so it was now the time to hunt for Beast.
