chapter 238 – confrontation

Sobbing uncontrollably with joy, the priest raised his one hand towards me and fell to his knees, quite obviously performing some kind of worship. So caught up with emotion was he, that nearby refugees, temporarily taking leave of their senses, were also swept up in the moment and mimicked his action. Surrounded by villagers giving praise on their knees, my …

chapter 237 – misunderstanding

If I’m going to be honest, I don’t really want to go and talk to the humans. The priest will probably be there, a crowd might form, it just feels so irritating. However, they may have information that can help me and I can’t help but feel a little responsible for them. In some ways I feel responsible for them …

chapter 236 – discussions

Skills, their structure, nature and import, was one of the first things that required attention when we began to study the System in earnest. The reason why the Chrysalis felt the need to implement such measures in the way it did was irrelevant to us, understanding and disseminating this information to allow for the spread of knowledge and to allow …

chapter 235 – the spoils and return to the surface

We feasted on the Croc until there was nothing left. Our stomachs were full to bursting and our wounds gradually closed. In hindsight, it probably wasn’t too smart of us to eat until we were completely comatose but oddly enough it turned out fine. With the Commander and its oppressive aura gone the creatures of the expanse began to slowly …

chapter 234 – to consume the beast

Turns out, letting a giant Crocodile take a sizeable chunk out of your business district is exceedingly painful. Like, it hurts a frickin’ lot. FTAGN! MY ASS! Is this a hostile takeover of my commercial operations!? What the hell, Croc?! In that one strike my Hp has plunged perilously low. I activate my regen gland once again to let whatever …

chapter 233 – eye of the beast part 4

When Water mana affinity levelled up to Advanced water mana affinity, I’d learned many things. I’d poured a lot of resources and evolutionary energy into beefing up my spellcasting ability to the point I was happy with it, but the spells hadn’t been quite as impactful as I’d hoped. The mana affinity skills were my first window into increasing the …

chapter 232 – eye of the beast part 3

Despite being weighed down by several Gravity Bolts, the Croc is still able to step forward, though the left leg drags through the mud. I continue to blast the Croc with my water cannon, until the monster is forced to lift one hand to try and block the spray. I’m not doing any sort of serious damage to it, its …

chapter 231 – eye of the beast part 2

The slowly rotating vortex of death engulfed the Gigantic Croca. Die! Die you overgrown hand bag! Please? The Gravity Bomb continues to suck in air, sticks and whatever else is unable to resist its immense pull. The power of the Gravity Bomb still shocks me to my core. When mana reaches a critical density, scary things start to happen and …

chapter 230 – the eye of the beast part 1

With dirty swamp water dripping off of my carapace I felt the formless pressure build ever higher as the group frantically cast our heads about trying to identify the source. It has to be close! It could be coming towards us right now! [“Eyes open everyone! Something nasty is coming!”] With my compound eyes, I keep watch in every direction …

chapter 229 – the encroaching doom

Since we unexpectedly crushed the Immortalis Garralosh (immortal Garralosh? Even I can work that one out), progress has been slow. The density of monsters has been increasing. Not only the Croca beasts in their various forms are more common but also the local wildlife. One of those stupid Hippo Turtles managed to sneak up on us and almost took Tiny’s …
