Since the morning, Randy kept walking forward to the where Ascension Chest was. From the map, he had not yet traveled a quarter distance yet. It's been three hours walk, Randy didn't even get out from Purwakarta Territory yet.
Currently, In the front of him there were two bears, standing majestically. The bear on the left had three meters high, brown fur, a huge paw, and two canine teeth protruded downward.
What attracted Randy's attention was the bear's forehead. The bear's forehead was green, shining like a green jade. It's had size about fifteen centimeters long.
Meanwhile, beside the three-meters bear, there was another huge bear. It was bigger than the three-meters bear. it was about five meters tall, even its paw twice as size as the three-meters bear.
The jade on its forehead also bigger. A half meter length and shone brightly which caused by the sunlight. Also, there were four canine teeth protruded from its mouth, two more than the three-meters bear. Two protruded upward while the other two protruded downward.
Behind the two bears, Randy guessed it was a new territory. The territory next to Purwakarta Territory. There was mist lingered at that area which made him could not look clearly what the clear situation behind the bear.
Randy shook his head, focusing at the two bears in the front. The bear on the left, he recognized it. It was a normal Savage Jade Bear, level 83 Rare Beast. Randy regarded this bear as plump EXP.
Why? He only needed to kill three Savage Jade Bears and his EXP's bar rose for two percent. In the three hours walked, He already leveled up once despite last night he just leveled up.
Actually, if he was not in a hurry, then he would like to stay here for two or three days more. Maybe in two or three days, he would level up for three to five levels. But, it's a pity that he was in a hurry to find the Ascension Chest.
He consoled himself that he would find more beasts or monsters which would give him more EXP later. But the problem was he didn't know if he could kill that beast with ease like he killed the Savage Jade Bear.
Randy scanned these two bears, especially for the right bear. He was sure this bear was Ancient Beast, the leader of the bear tribe or the like. Randy used his detection skill on the right bear.
-----------------------------------
[Elder Savage Jade Bear]
Grade: Ancient Beast
Level: 95
Skill: Tough Skin
Greater Strength
-----------------------------------
'Sure enough, it's an Ancient Beast,'
Randy already guessed this from the start he met these two bears. But as he scrolled down at the Elder Savage Jade Bear's information, Randy's eyes shone, letting out an excited glint.
'It's a mutated beast, a mutated bear. I can harvest another bloodline,'
Randy switched his sword back to Darkness. Early, he used Primeval Nether Claymore as the bear was a big beast in size. So Randy decided to use a bigger sword.
But this time he decided to change back to Darkness. Even though Darkness was not compatible to fight against a huge beast, but the sharpness was far sharper than the big Primeval Nether Claymore.
"Shana, tell me about the that bear's skill," Randy asked Shana as he stared at the enormous bear.
Just know when he leveled up, Randy raised Shana's level to level 20. She said she could tell him about beast or monster's skill within Ancient Grade or lower. So Randy immediately asked Shana about the skill detail when he found out the bear was a mutated beast.
"Greater Strength, it's a passive skill, the bear had a half more strength than a normal Elder Savage Jade Bear. Tough Skin, it's also a passive skill, like the named skill, it's skin is tougher than normal Elder Savage Jade Bear, about twice as the normal its kind,"
Shana's voice traveled into his ears, but he didn't see Shana's hologram.
"Roar!"
The three-meters bear roared and rushed toward Randy. Looking at the three-meters bear rushed toward him, Randy didn't pull his sword instead he also rushed forward too, intending to clash with the three-meters bear with his bare hand which covered by Infernal Warfist.
The Savage Jade Bear used its right paw to strike Randy with its full strength. The bear thought Randy would clash head-on with it.
Randy didn't have time to compete with brute force with the bear. He leaped three meters over with his feet in the front, his two hands made a grab gesture as he leaped over the bear.
After a half of his lower body passed the bear, Randy hands grab the bear's neck, pulling it upward.
Crack!
Boom!
The sound of bone fracture sounded, indicating the bear's neck fractured before Randy and the bear fell on the ground.
Randy stood while the bear kept lying down on the ground, indicating the bear was dead in one move. He inspired this move from the Smackdown shows.
"Uwooooo!"
The five meters bear also discovered the three meters bear was dead. It roared before advancing with its big body.
Bum bum bum
Each step of the Elder Savage Jade Bear resulted in vibes on the ground. But the speed of the bear was the same as the three meters bear.
This time Randy didn't use his bare hand to face the Elder Savage Jade Bear. He pulled the Darkness with his right hand, rushed toward the angry Elder Savage Jade Bear.
Elder Savage Jade Bear brandished its right paw to Randy. Despite had a great strength, Elder Savage Jade Bear's attack was slow in Randy's eyes.
Randy moved sideways, dodging the paw. The right paw missed and its attack landed on the ground.
Boom!
There was a small pit created by the paw. Of course, it was nothing for Randy, he didn't panic or falter by the great force behind the paw. He used the bear's right paw, going up to get closer to the bear's head.
Afterward, Randy slashed his sword toward the bear's neck before jumping back to the ground, dodging the incoming paw.
Aiming toward the neck, it was becoming habit after five months hunting. He always attacked the beast or monster's neck.
"Awooo!"
The bear let out another angry roar as it felt pain on its neck. There was a red line on its neck caused by Randy's sword.
Randy surprised as his attack only left a superficial wound on the bear's neck.
'It indeed has a tough skin, even with a Legendary grade sword and a half of my strength, I can only leave a superficial wound,'
This time the bear just stood still, staring at Randy with its brown eyes. After looking at Randy's speed, it knew Randy was dangerous. It didn't dare to act recklessly to charge at Randy like before.
"Heh, if you won't come, then I will,"
Randy rushed with his full speed which shocked the bear, it was faster than before. But the bear could still Randy's movement. It brandished left paw as it predicted Randy's movement.
Boom!
Another small pit created by the bear paw. But the pit was bigger than the previous pit, indicating the force behind the left paw was bigger than the previous attack. But still, the bear attack missed its target, Randy stopped before its left paw.
Afterward, it brandished its right paw to Randy. Again, its attack missed and only created another pit on the ground. But this time, it could not see where Randy was until it looked down.
Randy was right below its body and it felt a great pain on its right feet as Randy kicked its right feet.
Boom!
The enormous five meters bear fell caused by Randy's kick. What the last sight it saw was a human wore a black armor, raising a sword at its neck before darkness engulfing it.
Randy stood in the right before the headless enormous bear as its rolled on the ground. He thought he needed three to five slashes to sever the Elder Savage Jade Bear. But it was only a slash as the Darkness' effect triggered, Shatter Slash.
'Hmm, bear meat is good for the lunch and dinner,' Randy thought as he looked at the enormous bear in the front.
Afterward, he walked to the bear's carcass, dug its heart, and began processing the blood essence inside the heart into the special vial. After that, he stored the bear's carcass to his Storage System along with the special vial and advanced forward.
Battle System: You have entered the Bandung Territory!
Randy entered the territory which covered by a mist. The atmosphere was an eerie quiet, gloomy, cold wind was blowing, and the ground was damp.
Didn't know why but since he entered Bandung Territory, his heartbeat sped up. Also, since he entered the Bandung Territory, it was like being stared.
He looked the surrounding only could see a tree, there was nothing more.
'Is it camouflage beast?'
The camouflage beast in Bekasi Territory was nothing for him as the beast there was the low-level one, but if there was a camouflage beast here then it would be troublesome as he believed the beast and monster here was the high-level one.
Randy looked back, the bright and fresh of Purwakarta Territory.
'Shall I take a detour?'
Randy walked back to Purwakarta Territory, cool air was blowing, warm from sunlight, and also the most important was the feeling being stared was gone when he stepped in Purwakarta Territory.
He looked back at Bandung Territory, somehow he felt scared to enter Bandung Territory. He had seen a hideous monster and scared-looking monster, but he never felt scared of them, but this time…
But after some thought, Randy decided to advance to Bandung Territory. If he took a detour, it would take more time to reach the Ascension Chest's location.
Just as he wanted to enter Bandung Territory, he noticed the grass on Bandung Territory and Purwakarta was different in color. Even though both grasses had the same color green. But the grass in Purwakarta territory was bright green while the grass in Bandung Territory dark green.
But he didn't think much about it, Randy stepped in Bandung Territory. As he walked into deeper of Bandung Territory, Randy kept looking to the right and left. The feeling being stared was back, especially from his back.
The deeper he was the feeling being stared was becoming stronger. He afraid to look back, but after a long time, he decided to look back.
Randy turned his head back, there was nothing except the gloomy aura and the sparse mist. He let out a sigh of relief. Just as he wanted to continue venture deeper, he heard a creepy laugh right on his ears.
"Hihihihihi…"
