Chereads / Rise of the Primordial Void / Chapter 9 - The Plated Red Salamander Part 2

Chapter 9 - The Plated Red Salamander Part 2

It looked like a Mana slash but darker and more vibrant. Hollow had achieved an attributed mana slash. As a flurry of notifications went off, Hollow watched the strike connect with the injured Giant lizard.[Death Slash dealt 183 Damage]. Following that a long series of notifications occurred. Ignoring those due to his weakened state. Hollow threw a [Pointed mana blast] at the remaining [Salamander level 15] hitting it right on the head and killing it.

Hollow managed to drag himself deeper into the now-empty cane where the Salamanders had lived. Finding a dead-ending offshoot void moved some rocks into the way blocking the entrance and fell asleep.

Upon groggily waking up, he found himself back in full health though his body was still quite sore. Still quite exhausted, Hollow decided to check the spoils.

Pulling up his complete stat sheet the changes were drastic. He was slightly disappointed in the lack of dexterity that he had. Thinking back to the fight, Hollow realized that a drastic change occurred at level 25. The Giant Salamander's strength and speed were orders of magnitude different. He believed that the surprise attack was the only reason he killed it.

Hollow had completely lost track of how high his stats had gotten. He assumed that they were highly abnormal. His capability to funt monsters that were nearly double his level also seemed unreasonable.

Seeing how hard other people from the glade were struggling with killing lone Green salamanders. Hollow decided that he was fundamentally abnormal.

Finally feeling strong enough to move around, Hollow began to meticulously explore the Red Salamander cave.

He only encountered smaller red salamanders. Deciding to kill them to remove a future problem, he found that they provided minimal exp.

He only found one item capsule that the Giant Red Salamander had dropped. A long black wristband came out. It was covered in intricate runes and ciphers and was inscribed with words from multiple different languages. Immediately intrigued, Hollow analyzed the item and received two notifications.
