Chapter 116: Killing two birds with one stone

'Ding,

Master's tamed beast successfully killed a fire ghoul.

Gained 0.05 percent of pure internal fire energy and the remaining 0.05 percent to the master's tamed beast.

Henrick was really surprised at the system notifications because he didn't think he would get free internal fire energy even when his tamed beast kills the fire ghoul.

'Even though it is only 0.05 percent of the pure internal fire energy, it is still pure internal fire energy, right?' Henrick didn't mind the low amount of pure internal fire energy because basically, he was getting it without doing anything.

'If I get half of the pure internal fire energy every time my tamed beast kills other beasts, then if I have other tamed beasts, then I don't need to endure the pain to fill my dantian with the pure internal fire energy, right?'

Soon, Henrick wanted to form a contract with other beasts. So that he could get the free internal fire energy.

For a cultivator, having a fully filled dantian with the pure internal fire energy or even normal internal fire energy, it gives additional benefits in the long term.

So, Henrick was excited even with the small amount of pure internal fire energy.

'Anyway, I get contribution points for clearing this cave full of fire ghouls. So, killing two birds with one stone. All I have to do now is to accept more missions from the mission hall,' Henrick became excited at his thoughts as he decided to take more missions from the mission hall.

'I cursed my master for nothing. I should simply ask him to give me more missions. Not only he will be happy, but I will also get both contribution points and free internal fire energy,'

While thinking that, Henrick shifted his focus towards Nick to see how he was fairing with the incoming fire ghouls.

'Swoosh'

'Puchi'

'Kacha'

Nick was moving from one fire ghoul to another at an incredible speed and using some mysterious hand techniques to pierce his hand into the hearts of the fire ghoul and killed them in a single strike.

'What kind of secret techniques are that? He was able to move at such speeds,' Looking at Nick's fast movements, Henrick's mouth wide open.

'So, it looks like forming a team with Nick is not a bad choice for a group mission. With only two of us in this group mission, we will get more contribution points,' 

Nevertheless, he soon recovered from his shock and felt it was the right decision to form a team with Nick.

The fire ghouls are one of the weakest beasts in the beast mountain; however, since they always live in groups, it would be difficult to kill every fire ghoul without sufficient strength. 

A new outer sect disciple would be drained of stamina in killing the fire ghouls. That's why these types of missions were usually completed in groups in order to get the mission accomplished.

However, with the addition of each member in the group, the contribution points they get from the mission would be decreased because there would be an additional member to share the contribution points.

Generally, for group missions, three members is an ideal number; however, if the mission is difficult, the group strength will be increased to five.

As for Henrick and Nick, if they clear the fire ghoul cave, their total number of contribution points would be divided into two portions.

'Oh no. He is taking all my free internal fire energy,' Soon, Henrick came out of his thoughts as he hurriedly focused on killing the fire ghouls in order not to miss the free pure internal fire energy from the fire ghouls.

Without wasting any time, he increased the killing speed of the fire ghouls because Nick was killing at a greater speed than him which was making him lose the free internal fire energy.

'Ding,

Master successfully killed a fire ghoul.

Gained 0.1 percent of pure internal fire energy.

'Ding,

Master's tamed beast successfully killed a fire ghoul.

Gained 0.05 percent of pure internal fire energy and the remaining 0.05 percent to the master's tamed beast.

…

The system notifications continuously rang in his head informing about his kills and the baby fire monkey's kills

'System, can you turn off the system notifications? Only send me the important ones and as for the killing notifications just block them for some time,'

In the beginning, he felt that system notifications were very motivating for him to kill the fire ghouls; however, Henrick was soon annoyed by the same system notifications. So, he asked the system to turn off those system notifications for a while.

'Ding,

Turning off the system notifications that inform about the kills for an hour. Please turn on in case you change your mind in between.

The system was the perfect servant for Henrick till now which made him like it more because it always does the things he ordered it do.

'Except for the rewards, which sometimes are worst, it is good,' Henrick nodded his head at the system notification as he focused on killing the fire ghouls.

'Swoosh'

'Zap'

'Zap zap'

'Puchi'

'Eek eek'

In the cave, Henrick, Nick and the baby fire monkey continued to kill the fire ghouls.

The more they killed, the more fire ghouls appeared; however, they didn't have any fear because they still had half of the stamina left to fight.

After fighting for nearly an hour, they kill around 80 fire ghouls.

In the beginning, they were able to kill the fire ghoul in a single strike; however, with each passing second, the strength of the fire ghouls increased a little bit and moreover, their speed also decreased a little, which took time for killing the fire ghouls.

"Henrick, if you are tired, you can rest for a while,"

After killing a fire ghoul, Nick started breathing heavily as he asked Henrick to take rest for a while.

"Henrick, move aside," However, Nick noticed something and shouted at Henick to doge with an anxious look on his face.
