…
A black scorpion-like creature guided by the darkness stealthily crawled along the desert floor. Its hooked tail swung from side to side as it moved along. There was an unusual bright red colouring on it, which was obviously an indication of it being poisonous.
*Shuck!*
All of a sudden, a muddy yellow tongue lashed across at speed unseen by the naked eye and pulled the scorpion into a sand dune.
*Boom!* The sand dune split open, revealing a muddy yellow lizard. The lizard was covered by bits and pieces of fish scales and had a large beautiful comb growing on its head.
*Zi Zi!* The lizard opened his mouth, and with one gulp and a movement of its neck muscles, the scorpion was eaten.
After ingesting its food, the lizard swayed its stocky body and used its front limbs to rapidly dig into the sand and bury itself in it.
“Ga Ga!’
Almost immediately after the lizard buried itself, an unpleasant vulture screeching echoed in the night sky.
*Whoosh!* Following the vulture’s cry, a violent gust of wind swept by.
The large Kary Vulture swooped from midair, and using its black talons, it knocked the sand dune apart and clenched its claws.
*Kacha!* The sharp black talons directly hooked into the flesh of the lizard, and the lizard let out a howl of pain violently flipping its stocky body.
“GaGa!” The Kary Vulture let out a screech of delight and pecked at the lizard with its hooked beak.
*Pu!* The mud yellow lizard’s skull had been split. Its brain matter and blood left a mess on the sands.
The Kary Vulture grabbed onto its prey tightly and began to fly back to its den.
“Latent Fireball!”
Somewhere from within the darkness, several black colored fireballs suddenly appeared and struck the Kary Vulture that was carrying its prey.
In a flash, the black fireballs were all over the Kary Vultures body.
*Bang!* Without a sound, the Kary Vulture, along with its dead prey, were reduced to ashes.
The following fireballs did not decrease in intensity. They shot right up into the sky and killed the remaining Kary Vultures.
Following his attack, the ground vibrated and the sand parted, revealing Leylin’s face.
A week has past since Leylin decided to rest and recuperate. His amazing vitality played it’s role and he was able to recover back to his full strength,
Although leylin was weakened, this state to be taken advantage is only applicable to those around the Peak Rank 1 Strength, anything lower than that he could easily handle.
The backlash was not very intense but the strain on his physical body was substantial, since it was his first time entering this state, he was not able to steer up the overflow appropriately.
But now Leylin has been able to properly understand it’s control with the scanning and monitoring of A.I.Chip.
*Ga Ga*
Very soon, Leylin saw the dark figures on the far horizon.
They were the shadows of the Vulture King, which, having been enraged, brought the entire flock with it.
There was a huge flock of it, Leylin commanded his subordinates to not bother with trimming their numbers.
At his level, neither 10 nor 100 of beast with strength equivalent of Level 2 or 3 Acolytes, makes no difference. They are like meat on a chopping board.
Even from this distance, Leylin could sense the violent energy waves radiating from this furious Vulture King.
‘The Vulture King’s sarcoma is able to emit a sound attack.’ Leylin thought as he raised his hands in the direction of the incoming herd of Vultures.
“Latent Fireball ”
*Shiiii*
Leylin masterfully operated the Fireball and divided it into 4 or 5 dozens of small cannonade. These attack hurled at bottleneck speed and bombarded with the pack.
* Boom*
A huge conflagration blazed the skies as 70% of the vultures were burned to ashes. The aftershock of the barrage flinged away all of the remaining Kary vultures.
“Ga Ga!”
The vultures king flied away from the area of impact, the tremendous energy waves continued to radiate into the surroundings. This kingly figure was venting its frustration and rage at the continuous loss of its subordinates!
[From the energy waves radiated, target’s Vitality is over 20, Strength estimated to be 17-19. Concrete data is unknown!]
Creatures like these often possessed immense strength and vitality and even had innate spells which were terribly difficult to deal with.
Looking at the Vulture King snarling above a few piles of ashes, the other Kary Vultures in the surroundings also cawed in anguish. Leylin stared intently at the Vulture King. He remained unmoving on his spot.
“Ga Ga!” The Kary Vultures screeched furiously while the tumour-like muscles on their bald heads grew in size and glowed a bright red, finally culminating in a violent explosion.
*Ting!*
The resulting ear-piercing sound wave continued to reverberate throughout the premise. The remaining Kary Vultures continued to vibrate their tumour like muscles, amplifying the sound wave in the process.
Leylin smirked, this attack is not useful against him, if all the Vultures were alive, then maybe he would have felt anything but now, it’s like throwing stones at a man with a machine gun.
Suddenly Scales began to cover his body and a feral aura unfurled from him. Leylin jumped into The Vulture King direction, all while sporting a gun on his hand.
He launched a volly of attacks on the remaining vultures mid-air, without even looking at them. This was possible due to A.I.Chips calculation and markings.
The Vulture king noticed that his attacks were useless and seeing Leylin came his way, it decided to attack frontally.
Just as they were about to collide, The Vulture king felt a savage feeling radiate from Leylin and it’s instinctive fear against mighty advisory kicked in.
But before it could do anything, Leylin grasped it neck and plunged his fist in its tumor, ripping it apart from the vulture body.
* Ka ka! *
From the intense pain, the Kary Vulture King lost its balance and crashed down into the ground. A large cloud of sand floated around the downed Vulture.
Ignoring it’s shriek of agony, leylin changed the gun into a sword and thrusted right into it’s head.
The Kary Vulture King screeched and thrashed around a couple of times as the light in its eyes started to extinguish, and it thudded onto the floor.
Leylin get down from it’s body cancelling the Kemoyin Scales. If he wanted he could have easily killed the beast with the Eye Of petrification but the materials from a Vulture King, which rivalled the existence of a rank 1 Magus, were extremely precious. Moreover, they could also reap the rewards from both sides that governed the Great Canyon Margaret.
Leylin inhaled a huge amount of air into his lungs as the sentient force continued to pour into his body, although the energy from Level 3 Acolytes are not much for him but still this huge crowd provided him with a great amount of Sentient Force.
Anna, Grenn and Dexter immediately came to the scene collecting the useful resources and clearing up the area. Lancey also followed immediately after and stood behind Leylin.
Leylin commanded them to stay out of the fighting area because the Sound Attack could do a number on them.
‘ This place is best for me to hole up and boost my strength, my body is ready for increasing my Elemental conversion for quite some time. I should do that ‘.
Leylin has been able to accumulate a lot of Energy in his Dantain, he has stored it all up for later to use at the right opportune moment.
Leylin has not used the Darkness crystal even since the first time he used it to reach 35% , He has only used some bloodline crystal to focus on his bloodline purity which increased his Elemental conversion rate even further as a Byproduct. He knows that the most important thing for a warlock is purity and everything will follow with it.
Leylin sensed her presence but still kept his eyes closed, lost in his own thoughts, ‘Lancy huh, who would have thought you would be a Magi Family Princess.’
