Chapter 530: Showing Up

The group did as he was told and engaged the beast with all their skills.

"Something's not right" Alvara who had used her [Gale Speed] to open numerous wounds on its body muttered after seeing that the wounds on the body of the beast, weren't closing.

Typically a monster of this level already had multiple regeneration skills or recovery skills that made them somewhat tenacious and hard to kill. Most of the monsters that had encountered after the 20th floor were all like that.

So when seeing the savage war lion which was a level 377 monster, not display any signs of healing from its wounds, it naturally caused some questions to appear in her mind.

Seconds after she muttered those words, the beast raised its head once again to growl. The group thought that it was using that tactic once again and hurriedly look up only to see that the ceiling was fine, no debris was falling down on them.

"Get back" before they could realise who issued those words and for what reason, a black figure came crashing down on them with an insane speed, blowing them away in the process.

The three warriors were blown away and crashed into the wall on the other side of the hall. Alvara and that assassin narrowly dodged that attack and looked at that thing with dread in their eyes, the black thing that blew the warriors away was none other than the tail of the savage war lion.

The tail of the best was long and slithery like a snake and was covered with numerous black scales. At this moment, the eyes of the snake was fully open at this moment and releasing some strange light.

"Don't look into those eyes" Brett cautioned from the side. Alvara who was about to look into those snakes eyes hurriedly averted her eyes.

"The eyes of the snake head on the savage war lion holds a strong inducement effect that dampens your senses and slows down the circulation of mana inside your body". Alvara's eyes went wide when she heard what Brett said.

Those eyes of the snake head had this kind of mysterious effect. No wonder that burg and the other warriors were sent flying by it.

Warriors of their level had quite a high defence stats, they wouldn't be so easily blown away like that. That is if they weren't able to use their skill or feel the attack coming altogether.

The awakening of the snake head had made the situation a little dire, if they couldn't look how could they fight the beast? As this thought lingered in their minds, a voice that had kept silent all this while, sounded once again.

"This is for targeting me. You stinky beast… have a taste of my… [Lightning Magic Mastery]- [Lightning Blitz]".

An intense amount of blue lightning gathered into a spot forming a lightning bird that was more than three meters big. The lightning bird released a loud chirp as it was alive, the flap of its wings caused repeated thunderclap noises to echo around the empty hall.

The air around the bird was a little distorted and the mana around the surrounding was frantically fleeing away from the bird. All these indications were enough to tell everyone that the power within the lightning bird wasn't small.

Huff.. huff…

Marba took hurried breaths of air, her face had visibly paled from the exhaustion after conjuring the lightning bird. Nevertheless, the gleam in her eyes was brighter than ever.

"Captain, leave this stinky beast to my lightning magic" Marba pointed, willed by her intent, the lightning bird fixed its lightning eyes towards the savage war lion. Due to the lightning bird being an inanimate life, it wasn't affected by the eyes of the snake head.

RUMBLE… the lightning bird flapped its wings and quickly charged towards the savage war lion. The two beasts collided, and intense energy surged out from the point of collision and spread to the entire hall.

Alvara and her group were forced to step a few meters back and guard themselves against the random lightning bolts that were wracking havoc all around wildly.

The two beasts fiercely clashed against each other, the one that came out with a loss in that exchange was the savage war lion. Its entire body was scorched, numerous wounds dotted its body and lightning raced around its skin causing it to tremble continuously.

"Hehe…" Seeing that, Marba made a V sign towards her companions who gathered around her at his moment.

Burg and the warrior were a little worse from the wear after suffering that attack from the beast. The armour around their chest was bent inwardly and blood lingered around the corner of their lips. Nevertheless, all of it faded after they drank a potion or two.

"You three get back to your positions, Marba's magic wouldn't be able to hold it for long" Alvara commanded, it was just as she had said, after colliding with the Savage war lion a few more times and dealing some significant damage to it, the lightning bird started becoming faint before dissipating completely.

Fortunately for them, it bought them enough time to compose and heal themselves back. On the other hand, the wounds from back then and the newer wounds made the beast even weaker than before probably as a side effect of activating the snake its tail.

A new round with the savage war lion started, this time it was heavily dominated by Alvara's team. Burg and the other warriors who didn't get to shine last time, bombarded it with their skills, Alvara and the assassin anime Brett provided support from the sides with their fast and powerful attacks while Marba conjured some novice tier magic from the backlines.

Time passed by and finally, the savage war lion gave a deep growl before succumbing to the attack of Burg who plunged his sword into its chest.

BAM… the beast fell flat on the ground, its blood making a pool around it.

"Dammit… this is the payment for ruining my new armour" Burg cursed and pulled his sword back in an annoyed fashion. At last, when the beast was down, the group sighed a breath of relief.

They turned towards each other and smiled, they could each see the excitement from the battle still lingering in the other's eyes and a happiness that came from levelling up.

"No matter what one says, levelling is much more efficient and faster inside a dungeon" Marba commented with a  delight after feeling the rise of power within her.

"Not to mention we also get to keep the monster that we hunted. I get it now why so many of my friends wanted to become an adventurer. If we keep on hunting bests like this won't we become rich very soon" Burg rubbed his head and laughed.

The others around him also showed various kinds of emotions. Seeing that her group was totally smitten by the scope and allure of the adventuring profession, Alvara did not know whether to laugh or cry.

It was true that in their world, the profession of adventurer was highly viewed, it even paid much more than what an average knight or a soldier of a kingdom earned. Nevertheless, it wasn't just all glitters and glory, it was filled with dangers at every turn where it wouldn't be shocking to lose your life the next second.

The life of an adventurer was filled with such dangers. Brett the assassin who was the most experienced in the group, being a former adventurer and all, started dissecting the monster and taking out its good parts.

When they dissected its chest, a muddy red stone that was as big as a baby's fist came into view.

"Hohh!!… it's a core stone. Who would have thought we would end up finding this treasure? The value of this thing is quite high and looking at its size, it holds quite a bit of energy inside" Brett analysed.

A core stone was like the heart of a beast where all of its powers and energy were stored. It could only be found inside a few sentient monsters and the higher the level of that monster, the better the quality of that stone.

A core stone of a beast of level 329 like the savage war lion would be of quite good quality and could be used into making some decent artefacts.  All of them were aware of what a core stone was thus they didn't raise any questions.

The only one who asked any question was Burg who looked at the quail egg sized core stone in Brett's hand.

"Hey, do you think we would be able to get any inheritance from this stone?" he asked, his eyes shining with expectation.

PFFTTT…

Hearing these words of his, the rest of the group could hold themselves from laughing out loud. The loudest to laugh was Marba who had tears in her eyes from laughing so hard.

"Sigh… listen up brat, an inheritance is something that one can find just willy-nilly. It only forms inside a very strong beast probably calamity class or higher and even then one isn't guaranteed to receive its full inheritance" Brett who was the eldest and the most experienced out of the group explained.

Burg dejectedly dropped his shoulders, it was his first time diving and adventuring with a group like this thus when they finally found a core stone inside a beast, he couldn't help but get excited and dream of something unreasonable.

He thought that just like the Savannah Beast guild one of the top five guilds of the kingdom who were in command of a beast inheritance and passed it down from generation to generation, he had also chanced upon one.
