Undying Warlord

380 Tier-4 Humongous Drakyl Sea Serpent



Right now the effect of [Switch], [Thunder Step], and [Second Acceleration] had worn off and there were less than eight minutes left on the temporary equipment enhancements before they would wear off.

Dilan’s entire body was smeared in his own blood and the blood of the Tier-4 Sea Serpent, whose body he had reduced to ribbons of flesh using Xealtron and his terrifying physical strength.

After the attack, his physical strength had deteriorated to an alarming extent, a sharp contrast to the more than 800 Units before that was strong enough to halve the Sea Serpent’s body.

He was overflowing with excitement and the thirst for more blood as he extended one of his hands to reach for the lower part of the Sea Serpent’s long body.

“I will take that as a Souvenir!” Dilan declared with a small grin on his face and he stored the lower body of the Sea Serpent inside his storage ring.

The body of the Sea Serpent was much longer than he had expected, presumably 2000 meters long. Thus, he stashed in whatever he could store in his storage ring and filled it to the brim.

However, Dilan didn’t have the time to think about this lot. He had yet to deliver the final blow and kill the Sea Serpent that was already on the verge of death.

The enormous amounts of blood it had lost were a sure sign that it was taking its last few breaths and the way Dilan had sliced its insides like a butcher was more than enough to kill it.

But Dilan didn’t want to waste anymore time. Xealtron drained his Lifeforce much faster than he could regenerate it. It was necessary to end the monster’s life as quickly as possible.

Dilan shot back inside the Sea Serpent’s body. He reached the inner parts of its head in an instant, mantled the Cursed Dagger in a large amount of mana before he used his whole physical strength to jump up, and out of the Serpent’s head, tearing it open without any issues.

‘Even if your scales are extremely tough, you are just another monster with way too many weaknesses!’ Dilan thought with a satisfied smug in his mind as he made use of [Weakness Appraisal] to make sure that he pierced into the large red outlined area which the Earrings of Appraisal had pinpointed as the Sea Serpent’s weakness!

The Sea Serpent had been writhing in pain for the last few seconds, trying in vain to expel Dilan from its body. To the monster’s misery, it could do nothing except twitch in pain. After a while, its sight blurred and a throbbing pain spread through its head.

That pain made it go mad with fury and in a desperate attempt to save itself, it began thrashing its body wildly like a fish that would throw itself on dry ground in search of water. Dilan could do nothing but wait for the serpent to slow down while being tossed around for nearly half a minute before the Sea Serpent stopped moving altogether.

A breath of relief escaped his lips when the Sea Serpent stopped moving and he instinctively stored the remaining corpse of the Sea Serpent in his storage ring.

“That was a fucking hassle…” Dilan mumbled quietly as he lay down on the ground, sealing Blood Drain once again, which halved the amount of Health it deprived of Dilan.

Simultaneously, the augmented stats Xealtron had received decreased to +300 once again.

He had around seven minutes left until the effect of the temporary upgraded treasures would wear off but Dilan didn’t force himself to jump up right at this moment.

“System, can you sell the flesh of the Sea Serpent without wasting anything else?” Dilan inquired, hoping that the system would do exactly what he asked for.

[The flesh of an Ordinary Level 41 Tier-4 Humongous Drakyl Sea Serpent can be sold for 60,000 Essence Points. Is the host willing to sell the monster’s flesh?]

“Yes!” Dilan answered while wondering when had the Essence Shop begun to give Essence Points in exchange for body parts.

‘Maybe because it is a Tier-4 monster?’ He thought for a moment and sold the flesh of the Flood Dragon as well.

[The flesh of a Pseudo-Platinum Level 0 Tier-3 Flood Dragon can be sold for 80,000 Essence Points. Is the host willing to sell the monster’s flesh?]

Once again, Dilan responded with a yes. His Essence points skyrocketed but something confused him.

“Is the flesh of the Flood Dragon so valuable? Well, it is a Pseudo-Platinum monster, Dragons are considered mythical existences…and the Sea Serpent was just an ‘ordinary’ monster. That’s probably also the reason for its ‘low’ stats as Tier-4 existence,” Dilan theorized without actually minding what the truth was.

He gained 140,000 Essence points by selling the flesh that was useless to him, either way. In fact, it had occupied lots of space in his storage ring, which was why he had to get rid of it, whether it gave him Essence Points or not.

“Their fangs, the Flood Dragon’s Claws, and their scales will make great weapons and armors. Old Jeff will finally be able to create the best weapon and equipment to kill Tier-4 monsters without the need to play around with temporary upgrades like I’m currently doing…” Dilan mumbled in satisfaction before he got up from the ground.

He had activated his Origin ability [Regeneration] to the max in order to make sure that he would regenerate the Lifeforce that Xealtron drained from him every minute.

This worked out pretty well because his Health stat was already extremely high and his natural regeneration was already above everyone else’s too.

“Six minutes until the temporary upgrades are worn off and 56 minutes until the effect of the indestructible body has worn off…” He calculated out loud before a glint emerged in his eyes.

“Shall I devour the abandoned Island?” Dilan wondered and he nodded to himself in a heartbeat.

He liked the idea of taking over the abandoned island all for himself. There was enough time for him to abuse the Essence Shop to his heart’s content.

Dilan was ready to enter a near-death state as long as he was able to make the necessary gains in exchange.

Getting his hand on new materials for weapons and armors was already great, but the Tier-4 Essence crystal he had gained was the cherry on the cake.

It may only be an ordinary Essence crystal but it was from a Level 41 Tier-4 monster, which meant that he would gain dozens of status points and a bunch of Levels the moment he advanced to Tier-2.

That was only if he wouldn’t sell the Tier-4 Essence crystal to the Essence Shop.

‘I can get Essence points from selling the flesh and body of powerful monsters…most bodies of Tier-2 existences may not be valuable but I may as well just try to kill Tier-3 monsters and sell their body to increase my Essence points!’ Dilan thought, licking his lips.

His greed had increased exponentially and Dilan didn’t hesitate any longer. The bloodbath and destruction he and the Sea Serpent had caused while fighting had attracted lots of attention.

Many Tier-2 and Tier-3 monsters had been looking at Dilan after he had defeated the Tier-4 monster. They wanted to take their chances to kill him, especially since his body seemed like it would tear apart at any moment.

Little did they know that his current stats were something his body could easily handle.

“Kiddos, how about you all die for me?”
