BXBX NOVEL Chapter 263 - The Pit
With the sun raising and sharing his radiance with the world, Alex was woken up from his deep cultivation and quickly prepared to enter the Abyss pit. Before Alex walked back to the area where he previously killed the critters yesterday, he made sure to hide his vehicle again and destroy the bonfire.
The area that the day before was filled with hundreds of critter corpses was now being visited by several mutated monsters. It looked like the monsters were attracted by the critter\'s dead bodies, which caused the scene before him.
[Mutated Dingo]
[Level 45 Mutated Beast]
[Tier 2 - mid stage]
At this stage, Mutated Dingo is one of the mutated animals that dominates the Australian desert.. These animals are able to hunt effectively, by bringing down their foes with their packs, attacking relentlessly until their enemy drops dead. But this time, Alex noticed the dozens of Dingo seemed not daring to approach the middle of the area which was dominated by two giant bird monsters.
[Mutated Red Goshawk]
[Level 60 Mutated Beast]
[Tier 3 - early stage]
These birds of prey were not much weaker than the garuda that were found in Bali Island when they compared to each other. Their sharp claws that could shred through flesh easily, coupled with their incredible speed when diving downwards, made them formidable enemies that survivors didn\'t want to meet in the wilderness.
When Alex saw these unexpected guests he wasn\'t worried at all, on the contrary, he thought that these mutated monsters could be delicious food for him. Fortunately, he hadn\'t had any breakfast yet.
Eyeing those soon-to-be-food monsters, Alex quickly ran over to the crowd of mutated dingos and started swinging his swords, splitting their bodies into two portions. It could be seen that half a dozen of them were already killed by Alex\'s sword. As for those birds, when they noticed his presence, they instantly opened their wings and flew high into the air.
Once they reached a sufficiently high position in the air, they immediately straightened their bodies and plunged down towards Alex\'s position!
The two tier 3 mutated bird monsters were aiming for Alex with their two large and sharp talons, intending to tear his body apart. Alex who saw the situation immediately cast three of his [Magic Missile - Tier 2 Light spell] spells to attack the incoming birds. The spells directly hit those two birds but it seemed that although they hurt the birds, the tier 2 spell was not strong enough to stop them.
Alex immediately used the fourth stage hexagram technique to evade the dive.
BOOM!!!
Loud explosions accompanied by deafening sounds could be heard. The location where Alex had stood before had been ruined, with sand and rock fragments scattered everywhere, blurring vision for a moment.
Seeing the result of their diving attack, Alex knew he couldn\'t let these birds do these attacks without stopping or else he would be screwed. Facing these bird monsters, Alex is worried about their peerless speed, especially their mobility in the air where they can zapped around, dodging every attack that he throws at them.
Without a moment of hesitation, Alex decided to use his new weapon, the gift from Jerry. He quickly took out the [Silver Dagger - Tier 3 Weapon] and activated the spell inside the weapon.
[Haste]
Alex felt something filled his body with power.
[Significantly increases speed for 5 minutes, can be used once a day]
With Alex\'s speed increasing drastically, this time he took the initiation to attack the birds. The sharp dagger augmented with the light element immediately injured one of the bird\'s wings and rendered it unable to fly.
The injured bird screamed loudly and tried to retaliate, intending to kill the human who hurt it. But Alex effortlessly dodged its attempt and even stuck the tier 3 dagger into its head, effectively killing it.
The tier 3 bird monsters had quite high intelligence, seeing its partner die so easily at this man\'s hands, it quickly flew high and tried to flee.
Alex, who saw the bird\'s attempt to escape, vigorously threw the dagger in hand and hit the neck of the escaping bird. The bird\'s body could be seen falling from the sky, hitting the ground with a loud thud.
This tier 3 mutated bird was actually a terrible predator in Australia at this time, reaping a lot of lives in his previous life. But Alex, a Sky realm Magus who has lots of artifacts and skills, is the wrong opponent for them.
Walking over to the two dead bodies, Alex found a yellow spirit stone and then placed the bodies of the two birds in the storage ring.
After clearing the area from the monsters, Alex continued to walk towards the Abyss pit. The abyss hole had made the cracks so extraordinary that it was like going down a steep hill. He then carefully walked down to the slope and used one of his spells.
[Scan Area]
The spell result showed several monsters waiting for him in front but from the energy that they released, he knew they were only a bunch of the critters monster.
During one hour of his walk inside the hole, Alex finished off a dozen critters before finally arriving in front of a big gate. The gate was colored black with a shade of red, with indescribable words engraved on it.
The gate has a small portal opening through which the beast critters exit. Alex carefully inspected the gate then sighed.
"This place is still not ready."
Realizing that this place is a failure, Alex wasted no time and returned to the surface. He walked back to the vehicle and drove towards the next closest Abyss pit.
There are at least 10 Abyss pits in the northern part of Australian continent, Alex plans to inspect these pits one by one.
The same thing happened to the second abyss pit, from attacking critters to finishing off the mutated beasts. Alex honed his spells and fighting spells all at once.
Occasionally Alex could also find a unique mutated beast, which much stronger than normal mutated beast. Currently, tier 2 mutated beast meat does not have any benefit for Sky realm fighters, only tier 3 meat still has an effect.
Seeing the meat inside his storage ring, Alex decided to roast the meat and eating it alone. Although this is something he used to do, considering the 10 years of experience in his past life. Alex suddenly missed his friend who was fighting on the other sides of Australia especially Raufgar with his cooking skills.
Every time he consumed the tier 3 meat, Alex felt an increase in his spirit energy. Every night, he returns into meditation to deepen his reserve of spirit energy, refining the energy that he received from the meat and spirit stone. Within seven days, Alex had wiped out thousands of critters and hundreds of mutated animals. Naturally, he would have a lot of spirit stones.
[Your sky realm level increased by 1]
[Your sky realm level increased by 1]
Alex realizes that leveling up in the future will be much more difficult. So he couldn\'t expect to hit his goal just by killing critters and mutated beasts. He hoped to find the right abyss pit soon.
On his fifth hole, this time Alex noticed something different. The critters that filled the area around the pit were numbered more than a thousand, twice the normal amount. Although the number was a little too much for Alex, he hoped that this pit would be different from his previous pits.
Because of the sheer amount of critters, Alex decided to adopt the divide and conquer tactic, each day slowly and surely killed the critters that filled the area surrounding the hole. Killing them a few hundred at a time, and quickly ran and returned again on the next day. And finally on the third day, the area around the abyss was only filled with the critter\'s corpses. At that three days Alex managed to get more than 1000 spirit stones.
After he finished, As of before for the same particular reason, Alex waited until morning and the next day he then entered the abyss hole. After an hour\'s walk and dozens of critters killing, when he saw the abyss gate in front of him, Alex couldn\'t help but to smile.
"Finally!" This time he found the right abby\'s pit
