So much to gain today. Of course it made him very happy, considering all his Quests today were not easy. Apex predators in the Asgar forest are not playful, they are very powerful, and need a mature plan and strategy to defeat them.
If only departing from home only with guts, and carrying weapons, of course, it will not be enough to defeat Apex Predator forest Asgar ‘Demon Snake'.
You will only bring your life to death if you do not prepare a mature plan and strategy. To defeat Demon Snake, you also need a high Sense stat so as not to be ambushed by them from behind. Because, Demon Snake was extremely skilled in ambushes, and killing was secretly like an Assassin.
It could be mentioned, they were Assassins among monsters.
“I was lucky to get this much, I could feel my whole body getting hot, and filled with strength. It feels like I can beat everything!!” Smile confidently. However, he did not intend to underestimate his enemies later. Because, Xi himself is aware of his strength which is still far from the word ‘extraordinary'.
Seeing the reward he got, Xi was quite surprised at one thing. One item he should not have gotten as a Quest completion reward.
“If I remember correctly, this Demon Snake Egg should not be included in the list of gifts? But how can I get it?”
Think for a moment, and Xi thought back. And he remembered what was written on the gift trim back then.
“Huh? Is that a gift unknown? That time if not wrong is still a question mark! Apparently, this was the gift he meant... Interesting, this way the monster eggs I have increase.” Despite not knowing why the reward could be given a monster egg, it was clearly not an ordinary item that was easy to obtain. But Xi was very happy to get it.
With the existence of this Demon Snake egg, he would have a powerful Pet in the future.
Monster eggs or monster babies are step items. It is rare to find in any city or country. In fact, if you look for it in the forest, it is not easy. It's like you're looking for a needle in a haystack. Very difficult, and seems impossible.
Getting those kind of step things, Monster Eggs or monster babies, was a huge fortune. That you may have used luck for the rest of your life.
There were several reasons why the items were difficult to obtain, even if looking for them in the wild forest.
First, the old monsters reproduce. To give birth to her child, or her egg, a monster takes a long time. Unlike humans, who carry a baby in their stomach for 9 months. Monsters take longer or even faster. Of each type of monster, it has a different time.
The second is the geographical conditions or the place where they live. The thing that most affects monsters can reproduce quickly is not just a pair, but the right or perfect environmental conditions for them to reproduce, and a sufficient amount of natural Mana. The amount of Mana present in nature will have an effect on the female monster, because the female monster, when entered in her pregnancy, will have an effect on the female monster, requires more intake of Mana than usual to maintain the health and well-being of his body from weakness, or hurt that can harm the yanin in his body.
Not only that, The reason it was difficult for monsters to be able to reproduce loosely was the dangerous environmental conditions. Not just from the natural environment alone, but from other predators that are more powerful.
Monsters that are aggressive and like to hunt other types of monsters are the most dangerous monsters. Not only were they cruel, but also extremely sensitive. That is what makes some types of monsters have to make a nest, or find a perfect hiding location to produce offspring, so as not to be prey by other predatory monsters.
Things like monster eggs and monster babies were extremely valuable to humans. Sometimes even if they find it in the care of a dream, humans, will recklessly take it for their own benefit.
It would be nice, if you find something like that, kept secret, and do not get known by others. You could be in danger if that happens.
“I'll put this monster egg aside... Than that, I'm more curious about this one.” Xi took something from his inventory. It was a Dagger he had obtained from the completed Quest reward.
Quality: Rare
A Dagger made from the sharp fangs of the Demon Snake.
[Effects: Will be active when used, when giving a wound, the opponent will be exposed to poison paralysis.]
“Wow, Rare rate. This is the best weapon I have for now. Besides being sharp, it can also produce toxins that can paralyze the target. It will be very useful.”
Of every weapon Xi had, the Demon Snake Dagger was his best weapon right now.
Demon Snake Dagger besides being sharp, can also provide troublesome side effects. Paralysis given due to the poison may be temporary. But, if it continues to be left for a long time, it will cause permanent paralysis.
When the paralysis reaches the last stage, you won't be able to move again for the rest of your life. And live only by relying on the Mana root that is in the body.
There is a way to overcome his paralysis, namely by taking the antidote. But can this be done? You will not be able to do this if you are dealing with an enemy.
A clever enemy will not let their prey loose after being poisoned. They would definitely chase him and attempt to kill him. Even if they did not have time to kill him by their own hands, then they would only need to buy time for as long as possible until the effect of the poison worked.
A person when exposed to a toxin naturally antibodies that protect the body from foreign objects will weaken. So that will make stamina drain faster.
One more thing, if a person is exposed to toxins, if the person continues to move then the circulation of toxins throughout the body will be faster. There was nothing that could be done except to wait desperately for death to come.
After collecting all the items he got. Moreover, the hard Elder Demon Snake scales are very useful to make into armor or shield, the price will definitely be very expensive.
Moreover, the fruit of evolution that can also contain a lot of mana. It's very valuable. The quality of the Monster Core that came from Elder Demon Snake was also not a low-level Monster Core.
“It looks like it's all, and the items needed for the report are also ready. Now it's time to go back and report.”
“When I get to town, I have to find some craftsmen to help me make the armor. And maybe the rest I'll sell... Hmmm, do I have to sell it on the black market? I think the result will be much bigger than the usual place.”
Xi had thought of things to do after he returned to the city. In addition to reporting the results of his Quest, he also needed to sell some of the scales of the famous Demon Snake very steps.
If he sold it on the black market, or to merchants, or even to nobles... The gold coins that can be obtained are definitely very much. With that, there is no need to think about life dependents for the next few months.
Sure oes. In addition to increasing your own strength, and understanding about this world. Organize to do not for the life of the self is also needed.
You won't be able to live normally, or eat comfortably if you don't have money. Decent food you might be able to get out of town, but it's pretty hard to find. It would be better to have some money to buy some foods that are worth eating.
Which is certainly good to mouth, and easy to digest. It has many vitamins, proteins, and calcium that are needed by the body of every living thing.
Although Xi is a Dragon Race, that doesn't mean he has to eat meat every day, and eat bones to get calcium.
Xi can eat like a normal human being in general, and he also likes fruits and vegetables. Xi is not a picky person, as long as it is edible, and truly worthy, Xi will eat it.
Some humans and monsters would probably choose their food. Even Dragons, though, are very picky creatures.
Arriving in the City.
The city looks ordinary, and activists are seen walking normally as usual.
On his way, on his way to the Adventurers Union. Xi met some adventurers who were more senior than himself, and seeing them walking together, Xi was able to confirm that those people were parties.
Silver ranked Adventurer Party. In his party consisted of seven Members, and each of them was a Silver Rank adventurer.
With the abilities possessed by the system, Xi could see the strength, jobs, skills, and levels of the Silver-ranked Adventurer Party.
The seven people consisted of Three Warriors, one Archer, Two Magicians, and one Tanker. This party does not bring support like Healer with them. Somehow they do that, but in a Time Healer is needed to support and heal their wounds.
Are they confident in their abilities? Yeah, it seems like it. Considering they are senior adventurers. Who wouldn't be confident with a team as strong as they are. Each of them has unique abilities.
‘The average of their levels is 20, and the highest is 24. It seemed, that Warrior was its Chairman. Given that his level was the highest among the others... But, I still don't understand why they didn't bring Healer? Aren't they supposed to know that general lesson?.’
Xi could not comment more. Because it's not his duty. After all, he did not know them either, so there was no need to think about it. Moreover, Xi also did not want to see conflict with the party. There may be an opportunity, but severe injuries will not be avoided.
“I'd better just go.” He walked away leaving the crowd. The goal was clearly towards the Adventurers Union.
