Chapter 105 - lizardmen

[ Dual-element +0.06! ]

The crystal that I held in my hand slightly dimmed as I threw it back into the ring, after all, these crystals could still be used as long as it the user isn't a lightning or thunder practitioner which obviously added to the value of the purified crystals!

[ Dual-element: 3.28 ( Lightning, Thunder ) ]

Spending 1 hour to reach this location, I only needed to hold the crystal and let the system do its job, I ended up reaching an elemental value above 3 points with ease.

I stood on a low hill, watching the cave that is far by two mountains, and staring into the elusive dark barrier that seemed like it would devour anything, while taking caution of the two scouts who were standing guard outside the gate.

This was the gate I chose as my first target, mostly because it was close to my other vital targets and its moderate level being only a lv30+ gate, similar to the massacre gate.

The second phase of the plan was very important but quite simple as well, as my first target was to find gates for leveling, I only had to pick my targets for the following 9 days, 1 gate per day seemed like a bit of a stretch but I planned on at least going on with this rate, obviously taking care of the gates that we were supposed to raid later as a team.

While the Starry Night party was a party with the potential to become a high ranked party, that was only when potential was judged, their current prowess would find it hard to clear a similar lv.30+ gate, meaning that if I had to go on with the current arrangement of the association, I would really have to babysit them through the rest of the gate, which might even prove hard to me as protecting others wasn't really one of my strong points, I only was capable of helping and guiding them as it was quite a low rank gate.

So in conclusion, I decided to mix the last 3 gates they had to enter with another 5 targets, which are the closest to each other, easily clearing their and my problem without arousing suspicion while also leaving some sort of a hint to the bullies from the association….. All to achieve my obvious goal of power leveling!

As I was in need to get as much stat points as possible to increase my battle prowess, this was the most efficient way, as running around the domain and searching for gates with my current perception would take months if not years, which is obviously unacceptable to me as I still had to head to the capital and complete the quest I received due the recommendation letter.

Thud!

I jumped out of my hiding point, distracting the two scouts, hurriedly appearing behind them in less than a minute, knocking them unconscious with one hit, after all, the scouts' strong point was mostly their agility, their constitution was quite normal in comparison, so they easily fell to the ground after receiving my hit.

As for their actual work as guards, they had to make sure that no foolish low leveled attackers would try attacking the gate, hastening its eruption process, and…. Since I was already here to clear the gate they simply didn't have to bother, I simply put them to rest, I only needed them to stay quiet for a minute so that the gate lockdown would occur, blocking outsiders from coming in, and giving me the privacy that I wanted.

`~~`~~`

Removing the robe and the mask so that they won't restrict my movement, I took out a pair of normal gloves and put them on, that's right, I didn't plan on using any weapons in this raid.

[ 'yellow cave Corruption gate' (one-floor)

Status: Active ]

[ Time till outer invasion ] : [ 5d: 3h: 59m:11s ]

A yellow humanoid lizard appeared out of nowhere, screaming at me while brandishing its claws…

"Screechhh."

I calmly tightened my fist before delivering a punch in the face to the weird screaming lizard man.

Bang!

The lizardman that had his face crushed was thrown away two meters as a thunder like noise reverberated in the whole gate….

[ You have absorbed the blood essence of a corrupted 'lizardman soldier', purification in progress….. ]

[ You have received 969 EP! ]

This was the perfect opportunity for me to harvest essence while tempering and researching my acquired physique abilities!
