Chapter 56: The Strange Nolan Forest
Chapter 56: The Strange Nolan Forest
Bang! Blocking the attacking claws with a sword, Ash looked at the big cat in front of him with a hint of doubt in his eyes:
"The black shadow leopard lives deep inside, why did it run to the periphery?"
【Unrivaled Sword Style】
Will is like a sword, piercing the black shadow leopard's brain.
"Meow!" The black shadow leopard immediately shouted in panic and tried to escape, but the hunter who was lurking beside it pounced on it.
boom!
The dog pounced on the black leopard, kissed its throat with its mouth, and then bit it hard.
With a click, the Black Shadow Panther's body, which was about to resist, collapsed.
{Activate achievement: [Black Shadow Panther Nemesis]: Hunt and kill 1/100 Black Shadow Panthers.}
Ash pressed his palm on the black shadow leopard's head and extracted its soul to replace the snake soul in the [Soul of the Four Symbols].
Ash felt that his hands and feet seemed to become stronger.
"Not bad." Ash shook his hand and took out his hunting knife to skin the black panther.
Holding the magic core in his mouth, Ash slowly absorbed the magic power inside it in coordination with his breathing.
He continued to search for prey until the afternoon. After Ash cut off the head of an Iron Fist Ape with one sword, his brows furrowed deeply.
Because it's too abnormal.
He encountered too many monsters today that did not belong to the outskirts of Nolan Forest.
After taking a look at the sky and then looking deeper into the Nolan Forest, Ash continued to dissect the monster.
"Let's go deep inside and take a look tomorrow at noon."
Thinking of this, Ash took out a new magic core and replaced the empty magic core in his mouth.
Halfway to the Adventurer's Guild, Ash felt a surge of comfort running from his spine to his brain.
"It's level 11 now."
Ash glanced at the panel with some helplessness in his eyes. Although his golden bloodline greatly improved his combat power, it also greatly broadened his foundation, causing him to need several times or even ten times more energy than others to upgrade.
If an ordinary person had his resources, he would have already reached level 30 or 40.
But this is just a happy worry. After all, at least before level 60, he doesn't have to worry about bottlenecks and all he needs to do is eat.
After selling today's spoils, Ash glanced at the street corner, where someone was using a mop to clean the blood stains on the stone slabs.
Just by smelling the blood in the air, Ash knew that a lot of people had died here.
"What a waste of my life."
Ash originally planned to be an unknown hero, fighting against the strong and helping the weak in the dark night, and earn the achievement of [Messenger of Justice].
However, it seems that the level of public security in Senmu Town during this period may have reached its highest level in history, leaving him no room to take action.
"But now that we have exhausted all the resources in Nolan Forest, it's time to move on. After all, this is just a novice village, and you can't buy good things even if you have money."
As Ash walked, he thought about where he would go in the future.
Deep in the Nolan Forest, a six-meter-tall blood-marked giant was thinking about the same question as Ash.
Flesh, blood and bones were ground into minced meat between teeth and then swallowed.
"Not enough, not enough, whether it's flesh and blood or soul, the food here is too bad. I need better food."
Kloz swallowed the last tail in his hand like sucking noodles and let out a dissatisfied growl.
Next to it, a huge blood-red sword burst into blood light and absorbed a tiger head. This tiger head came from the overlord of Nolan Forest, the Colorful Wind Tiger with a challenge level of up to level 120.
The tiger head gradually shrank and then was embedded in the sword guard, which was already covered with densely packed heads.
Kloz looked toward the outskirts of the forest. He could sense that there was more nutritious prey over there.
He moved his body and walked over there.
In the nursing home, Ash had just cooked some rice with his Flame Sun Dou Qi when he saw the bunny girl snatching away a pot without any hesitation.
Ash added another bowl for the dog and started eating in silence.
After dinner, Ash asked, "Can we have a sword fight tonight?"
"You want it now?" the bunny girl asked in surprise.
"Yeah." Ash nodded.
"Then let's begin." The bunny girl put down the bowl, and then an extremely sharp sword force rushed straight into Ash's mind.
"Tsk, this woman really likes to take direct action!" Ash gritted his teeth and activated the unique sword force to resist Ye Lin's sword force.
Clang!
A sound like the sound of a sword rang in his mind, and Ash felt as if a silver moon was shining from the sky, with an aura that looked down on the world pressing down on him.
Ash's sword pierced Silver Moon without any surrender.
"He looks a bit like a swordsman."
Ye Lin nodded slightly, then released a stronger sword force towards Ash.
Zheng!
Ash's sword force became more and more oppressive and sharper, countering the bunny girl's sword force.
A minute later, the bunny girl restrained her sword power: "Alright, the sword fight ends here. If you continue like this, your sword will be in danger of being broken by me."
"Yeah." Ash nodded weakly, his body covered with fine beads of sweat visibly, and a faint fragrance filled the room.
The bunny girl's small nose moved and she thought the fragrance was quite pleasant.
"I am leaving."
The bunny girl left, and Ash circulated his Flame Sun Fighting Qi to evaporate the sweat from his body.
"Unparalleled sword power?" Ash recalled the feeling of the sword battle, thinking about it, he seemed to understand the meaning of the phrase "everything is in the sword".
After letting Valentine cast [Revival] on him, Ash began to practice swordplay and running.
After completing his daily maintenance on the sword, Ash lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
In the dream world, Ash looked around and found that he was not in the huge cave.
'Has the Dream Cave disappeared?'
The dream cave is time-limited and will disappear after staying for a period of time.
"What a pity." Ash felt a little regretful. After all, it was not easy to meet someone as strong and weak as Pig-Head Buddha.
From the memories passed down by Quetzalcoatl, he already knew the benefits of the dream world.
Just talking about the current Kokang, it can nourish its own soul. The larger its mass, the better the nourishing effect.
When the soul is strong, it can implicitly lead to improvements in energy, understanding, mental strength and other aspects.
In addition, there are some special treasures in the dream world, such as the space-time dream sand that can last for one year per second, the hundred dream fruit that can temporarily greatly improve one's understanding, and the dream mark that can permanently improve one's understanding.
All these made Ash quite envious.
Ash picked a direction at random and soon encountered a wave of dream beasts.
Energy bombs swept through them, turning them into ashes. Ash glanced at the achievement:
"The second-level kill count is 5, a five-fold increase."
While killing dream beasts, Ash was looking for a dream cave. The dream beasts here were still a little weak for him, and there were not many second-level dream beasts. Most of them were first-level dream beasts.
After the green bar was used up, Ash returned to the dream world and continued practicing swordplay.
When the green bar reached the bottom, Ash stopped, looked to the side and said, "Aren't you coming in?"
After saying this, Ash manipulated his dream bubble to open a crack.
A nightmare flew in somewhat hesitantly.
"It's happened so many times, why are you still not used to it?" said Yaxiu.
Sister Yueban rolled her eyes when she heard this. Why couldn’t she adapt to this? Couldn’t that little pervert count for himself?
"Tell me, what do you want me to do in exchange for sucking you this time?" Sister Yueban looked like she was ready to give in.
"It's up to you. I don't have any requirements this time." Ash said, "Just don't inhale too much."
"Really?" Maria's first reaction was that it was a trick.
"Really, there's no need to lie to you." Ash said, "I have something to do tomorrow, so I don't feel like having too much fun."
What happened in Nolan Forest today still concerned him a lot, so he planned to recuperate today.
"Really?" Maria tentatively stretched out her tail and bit Ash's neck.
After inhaling enough, Maria realized that Ash really didn't do anything.
"Har~ I'll leave it to you from now on." After saying that, Ash fell towards Maria.
Maria caught Ash with a hint of suspicion in her eyes.
But after discovering that Ash really fell asleep, Maria pinched Ash's nose with her fingers: "Little rascal, you are really my nemesis!"
