" Wan ! What are the strengths of the Beasts in this area ? Can we deal with them ? "
Tian saw many Spiritual Herbs in the area and wanted to collect them very much so he asked his sister and didn't want to leave them behind, especially since most of them were extremely rare, and since they had finished setting up traps they had plenty of time to do so
" Most of the Beasts in this area are Common Beasts, but some Spiritual Beasts oat the First and Second Level such as bears, tigers, leopards and others come to hunt the animals near the spring "
Wan continued speaking quickly after guessing what Tian wanted to do
" We might be able to fight these Beasts in theory but our weapons are fragile and unsuitable and will break once they collide with the hard skins of the Spiritual Beasts "
" That's it ? "
Tian thought for a while and then came up with a suitable solution
He looked at their various Common Weapons and after finding that they were upgradable, he smiled happily and chose to upgrade them which cost him 60 Energy Points to become Spiritual Weapons, and made a big smile on his face
They are in dire need of Medicinal Materials at this time
They can eat them directly to strengthen their bodies or give them to their aunt to make Potions, Pills that will have a better effect after they consume them or they will generate profits and a good amount of Spiritual Stones if they choose to sell them
" The possibility of large and dangerous monsters appearing is not very high, and with our current weapons we have the ability to protect ourselves so we must seize this opportunity and take all the herbs and medicinal materials we find with us, so that we can continue to improve "
The two sisters acted after Tian's words and prepared their new weapons then the three of them immediately got to work
They had all memorized the complete copy of the Mysterious Continent's Medicinal Materials Book 1 and had a comprehensive understanding of these medicinal materials and how to select them and the preferred terrain and environment in which they grow, so the three of them moved quickly and started harvesting like healers and herbalists with years of experience
" Ten-year-old Ginseng ! "
" Metal String Grass ! Damn it's thirty years old, I got it ! "
" Is this Blood Grass ? Why is it so big ? It must be a hundred years old, right ? Haha, great ! "
" Look, there's a Spirit Strengthening Grass ! "
" What, this thing grows here too ? How come the Spiritual Beasts didn't find it ? "
Tian approached the small grass in front of him and smiled
" This grass strengthens the spirit and increases the cultivator's understanding of Martial Arts, Alchemy and Crafting skills, and also helps Spiritual Beasts raise their intelligence, so it's rarely available on the market and is mostly consumed by Beasts who can't stand its temptation ? "
" It's only grown for a year ! "
" That must be why the beasts failed to find it ! "
" Look ! There are some seeds on it "
After Ruru pointed to the two, they all smiled happily
The three of them didn't expect the types of Medicinal Materials within the Great Forest to be so rich and numerous
Their sizes are also so large and their quality is so good
Because many people don't care about knowledge and want to gain strength blindly Hidden herbs are rarely picked up by ordinary Fighters
As for the giant organizations that manufacture and sell medicines and Spiritual Herbs, they have their own farms, so many of these herbs within the great forest have grown well for ages and their medicinal properties have become much better !
After a while, the three of them had collected most of the common Medicinal and Spiritual Materials in the area. As for the Bronze Medicines and Materials and above, they were relatively rare and only found in the inner areas of the forest wich are rich in Spiritual Energy
Since their work was almost over, the three of them sorted out the materials they had collected and separated them into different categories, then carried them and prepared to leave
" Let's leave the area ! "
" Okay ! "
The three of them were about to leave the area when they suddenly heard the roar of the Spiritual Beasts !
" Ooooggg~~ "
" Huh ? What is this ? "
Tian frowned and his expression became extremely serious
Wan suddenly shouted
" Move ! There are Spiritual Beasts coming ! "
After speaking, the three of them immediately ran away from the area
With one of them being a Level 1 Martial Apprentice and the other two being Level 2, the three of them were extremely fast, and ran 100 meters in a few seconds
But before they could run any further, they faintly saw several Beasts rushing over and surrounding them with blood-red lights in their eyes
" Watch out, there are Spiritual Hyenas ahead ! "
Long Wan was the stronger of the two and had better senses and vision than the two, so she was able to quickly find the Spiritual hyenas hiding in their path
" Don't continue ! Let's change the path quickly ! "
Tian knew very well that they couldn't allow themselves to be trapped by the hyenas, otherwise they wouldn't be able to escape easily, so he immediately alerted them
" To the right !! "
Ruru shouted loudly right after she noticed a convenient path nearby
They quickly turned around and did their best to avoid the obstacles and miss the hyenas and not letting them catch up with them
Fortunately, the hyenas didn't seem to have enough numbers to form a circle and surround them, otherwise they would have been in very serious trouble
The three of them ran for a while, until they couldn't hear the hyenas' howls and stopped in front of the edge of a steep cliff
" Huh~ ! Hu~ ! This area should be safe, right ? "
Tian panted heavily to regain his breath and then carefully checked their surroundings and found no signs of the hyenas
" Tian ! Take a rest and then leave the area immediately and leave the hyenas to us ! "
Ruru spoke with worry and fear for her brother after seeing his situation and remembering that he was weaker than her and her sister and might suffer greatly if they couldn't protect him
" No rest ! The cliff is a dangerous area ! They will surround us if they find us ! Let's leave quickly ! "
Tian regained his breath and picked up the medical supplies and weapons, ready to move
" Get ready ! It seems we can't leave ! "
Wan shouted in a harsh and sharp voice as she put her shield forward and held her sword in her right hand tightly
The two of them acted quickly after hearing Wan's warning. Tian readied his spear and held it with his left fist after hanging the axe on his right side while Ruru held her dual blades tightly as a sharp light seeped from her eyes
" The hyenas are here !! Be careful ! "
Around them ! Dozens of Spiritual hyenas with blood-red eyes, shiny black and white fur, and extremely strong bodies, silently emerged from the dense trees and stared at them fiercely
Tian frowned and clenched his fists on his spear, not daring to move rashly, and focused heavily on the movements of the hyenas in front of him
In front of them were 14 giant Blood Hyenas
They were much larger than the Hyenas that Tian had imagined in his mind from the images of his previous world, and they reminded him once again that he was not in the same peaceful world
They looked extremely powerful to him, with bulging muscles, slender limbs, and high shoulders between about a meter and a half
In this world, children learn a lot of informations from a young age about Goblins, Orcs, various Monsters, and even other Races so that they can deal with them well when they encounter them
From what he knew, creatures that live in groups will always produce a king or leader for their pack who is much more distinguished and powerful than them and can be easily distinguished
But, after examining these Hyenas, he found that they were all the same size, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief
" As long as there is no leader, there is hope for survival relatively easily ! "
Tian held the Metal Spear in his hand defensively, then under Long Wan's orders, the two brothers approached from either side of her and pointed their weapons forward towards the Hyenas, while Long Wan made her shield in a cross-legged position to protect a wider area, and they prepared for battle, and there were no signs of hesitation on their faces
[Name]: Steel Spear / Spiritual
[Introduction]: Forged from pure steel with a special technique, high quality, cuts through iron like clay. It has the effect of increasing strength and sharpness and reducing weight
[Status]: Cannot be upgraded
[Energy Points]: 399
" Hmm ?! Reduce weight ? "
Only now did Tian focus on his weapon and realize that its weight had not increased since he upgraded it, but had become much lighter, and even their other weapons had, and they had not realized it until this moment because they were busy and focused on working and harvesting Spiritual Herbs and then escaping
" Haaaaah ! "
Tian did not want the Hyenas to take the initiative, so he grabbed his axe with his right hand and pulled his upper body back as far as he could, leaning on his left foot forcefully, then threw the axe with all his strength at one of the bloody hyenas who seemed dangerous to him for some reasons, especially with the terrifying claw marks that covered his face
Tian aimed directly at its head, and because he moved quickly and decisively and the Hyena stopped moving, he was unable to muster the momentum to maneuver, so the axe hit it in the head and penetrated it, and it fell dead immediately after that
