Chapter 94 The Khunu Mountain
[You have killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Berserk Mountain Goat!]
[You have gained 4 mystic energy points!]
Once he was discovered, Rex did not hesitate to come out of his hiding spot with the intent to kill as his first instinct was to exterminate all 5 Mountain Goats before they could alert others.
Whoosh!
Once Rex separated the first Mountain Goat's head from its body with his sword, he rotated on the spot as his free left hand swiftly swiped 2 times.
With each swipe in the same direction, a dagger was thrown as the Death daggers easily pinned the 2 Mountain Goats to the mountain wall.
[You have activated mystic effect: Ancillaen Gaze!]
[Mountain Goat has been petrified!]
[You have activated mystic effect: Blood Edge!]
Once Rex activated the first mystic effect of the Death Daggers, his luck shone as the 10% chance to petrify opponent took effect on one of the Mountain Goats that was pinned to the wall.
With petrify, the massive Goat stiffened like it was dead, and having calculated the duration of this effect during his 1 week in the wild, Rex easily deduced that it would buy enough time for him to finish the others.
This was why he left the dagger on the Mountain Goat while activating his Blood Edge mystic effect on the other dagger.
With 100% more penetration damage, the Death Dagger became extremely lethal as Rex rushed to the Mountain Goat's side before stabbing rapidly.
Before this Mountain Goat could even bleat in pain, Rex stabbed so fast before removing its head with Berserker before the Goat could retaliate.
[You have killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Berserk Mountain Goat!]
[You have gained 5 mystic energy points!]
Watching 2 of their brothers dying instantly and seeing another stiffen while pinned to the wall, the remaining 2 Mountain Goats panicked.
They forget to bleat for help and instead tried to run but this was their mistake since Rex having read them already was more than a step ahead.
[You have activated skill: Double Plutonian Slash!]
Empowered by his domain mystic ability, this sword slash exceeded the range of the sword as the 2 golden sword energies flew towards the 2 Mountain Goats. Their legs were sliced through completely by the sword energy.
Meh…!
Both were about to bleat in pain before a massive tail that looked like those of a fictional scorpion struck down, relieving them of their pain.
[Grey has killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Mountain Goat!]
[You have gained 2 mystic energy points!]
[Grey has killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Mountain Goat!]
[You have gained 2 mystic energy points!]
The massive Dark Mist Spider stood proudly on the corpse of the 2 Mountain Goats as he looked at his master like he was demanding praise that he was due.
Rex was speechless. "Ok, you did good, you're a good boy".
The Dark Mist Spider raised his massive body proudly but a jealous entity was there to complain like usual as the sword on Rex's hand vibrated the next moment.
"Shing!" "Shing!"
"The heck! Ok, you did good too Berserker!"
"Shing…!"
Rex did not know whether to laugh or cry as he took hold of Berserker before going toward the last Basic Mystic Mountain Goat who was still petrified.
The Mountain Goat's body barely moved but its teary pleading eyes told Rex all that was going on through its mind.
Ptui!
Once Berserker stabbed its head, the Goat struggled a bit before going limb.
[You have killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Mountain Goat!]
[You have gained 3 mystic energy points!]
After killing the last Mountain Goat, Rex sat down on the mountain rocks to rest a bit as he brought out a bag of blood before drinking its contents.
As soon as he sat down, Grey came closer before laying down beside him.
Rex's hand instinctively went to his first transformed beast as he caressed its hard body while thinking about his journey through the wild over the past week.
In the blink of an eye since the day that he separated from Cassandra, it was already a week. During this week, Rex was able to experience the full dangers of the wild that made it so dreaded to mystic warriors.
Even with all his advantages, he already came close to death in this one week more than he had ever been in his full 18 years of living.
After leaving the borders of the King Resistance Shelter, he entered a large forest where he traveled for 5 days. He encountered the most dangers in the forest, but alongside Grey, he was able to fight his way out.
After leaving the forest, as indicated on his map, he finally arrived at this mountain called the Khunu mountain. According to the map, all he needed was to cross this mountain before he got to his destination, the Mist Village.
This village was where the nearest Temple of Blackfire was located.
For the past few days, Rex was still stuck crossing the Khunu mountain. Apart from the numerous dangerous Mountain Goats present, and the occasional snakes, the real dangers of the Khunu mountain were the Golden Eagles.
These dangerous mystic beasts were the rulers of the mountain. Before leaving the King Resistance Shelter, in the village where he got the map, Rex heard of rumors of the alpha of the mountain being a Super Golden Eagle.
The betas were the Advanced Golden Eagles under it, while the real dangers were the intermediate Golden Eagles that roamed the mountain daily.
Rex had never seen a Basic Mystic Golden Eagle since he arrived in the Khunu mountain, intermediate Golden Eagles were the pests here and they were dangerous. Because of them, he could no longer use Grey as a mount.
The journey through the forest was supposed to take a week but through Grey, Rex was able to cut off a lot of time to arrive at the mountain earlier.
On getting here though, he could no longer continue his speedy journey since he dared not travel through Grey. Because of the Golden Eagles, his approach was more cautious as the main goal was passing through safely.
Once Rex was done resting, he patted Grey as like usual, the Dark Mist Spider took the lead at the front to serve as the scout of the party.
With his unique abilities, most especially his sprint and jump skill that Rex already grew to envy, Grey could almost escape every dangerous situation.
With Grey taking the lead, Rex continued his journey for another full day where they killed a few more Mountain Goats and snakes.
Around evening, precisely 5:53 pm, Rex finally saw the silhouette of a village appearing in the distance. Rex was ecstatic but he did not leave immediately, he instead set his eyes on the skies where the Golden Eagles reigned supreme.
He smiled dubiously. A rule that he made for himself during his travels was to never leave a location without hunting one of the leading beasts as a souvenir.
"Grey, get ready for battle!"
"Hiss!"
[You have activated mystic ability: Blackfire!]
[You have activated advanced skill: Nirvana Slash!]
Having trained with his new mystic ability for the past week, Rex could now barely integrate it into most of his attacks. By combining it with his strongest sword skill, Rex was able to send an ethereal slash to one of the flying eagles.
Instantly, the soul of the eagle was damaged as it fell from the skies.
The other Golden Eagles were alarmed but before they could make sense of what was happening, a black spider jumped high into the skies before snatching the Golden Eagle it started attacking it while still in mid-air.
Once the spider fell, it was over for the Golden Eagle as master and transformed beast completely rip it into shreds in less than a minute.
The Golden Eagle could not even use the metal mystic ability that they were famed for, its damaged soul did it bad before it died.
[You have killed an Intermediate mystic beast: Golden Eagle!]
[You have gained 15 mystic energy points!]
[You have gained a mystic stone!]
The other Golden Eagles still circled in the skies as they watched what just transpired, stunned. It was only when the spider started sprinting away with the human on its back that they finally understood.
Screech!
They screeched loudly before going in pursuit but the 8 legs of the spider were not for fancy as he ran like his life depended on it.
In no time, they left the territory of the Khunu mountains and the Golden Eagles could only protest in anger since they could not leave their territory.
Rex gave them the middle finger.
