2 days later…..

[You have absorbed the blood essence of a Semi-Corrupted Lightning Tiger, Strength increases by 4, Constitution increases by 1, Agility increases by 2.]

[You have absorbed EP under the effect of a level limiter, as such your level doesn’t increase.]

Wooosh

I ran back to the cave entrance once more…

Using this method for the last two days proved quite effective, even more than I expected it to be. Thinking about it thoroughly, the major reason for it was the dark mist surrounding them, they seemed to have lost all reason.

They only had one thing in mind, that was to attack me. Although, I didn’t know why was I specifically targeted exactly, I had some hints.

According to the system, these beasts were somehow corrupted by that dark mist, and one of that dark mist’s orders was to kill me.

As for why me?

I assume this had to do with me being one of the only 10 players in this ‘Lost Realm’.

The identity given to us by the system didn’t seem to be simple anymore. However these were all just assumptions.

Anyhow, as the beasts lost most of their intelligence and instinct, it allowed me to ‘Snipe’ them individually through the last two days, leaving only two tigers left.

Thankfully, the battle was still ongoing outside, so I didn’t have to worry about the supposedly ‘Corrupted’ Thunder Lion soon.

>>>>

After resting for a full hour, I decided to attack the last two beasts simultaneously, before making a run for it.

[You have absorbed the blood essence of a Semi-Corrupted Lightning Tiger, Strength increases by 1, Constitution increases by 1.]

[You have absorbed E…..]

[You have absorbed the blood essence of a Semi-Corrupted Lightning Tiger, Strength increases by 1.]

[You ….]

[‘Dual Swordsmanship’ has reached lv.10.]

As I used ‘Dual Swordsmanship’ to deal two individual attacks, the skill’s level skyrocketed and leveled up twice.

It had already reached lv.8 through the all out strikes, it seemed that the more concentrated and skillfully executed the skill, the better the increase in a skill’s level, which was more effective than repeated poor strikes.

[You have achieved ‘Ambidexterity’ and maxed out the beginner tier of ‘Dual Swordsmanship’]

[You have awakened a new stat!]

[You have acquired the ‘Dexterity’ stat.]

[Dexterity: 11.]

[You have received the Title ‘Dual Wielder’.]

[‘Dual Wielder’

Title effect:

– Dexterity +10% ]

A long log of system alarms bombarded me. However, I only checked them for a second before running forward using ‘Swift steps’.

It wasn’t the time to rejoice about new abilities or stats, as my life was on the line here.

Just as I arrived at the swamp sector…

AWROOOOOO
