Chapter 11: Killing the Elite Aberration!

After cleaning up the battlefield and ensuring nothing was overlooked, Jeremy prepared to return and open the treasure chest.

It was not wise to linger here any longer. The recent commotion had been too loud, and Jeremy had already noticed some monsters approaching their location.

Glancing at Lisa, who had fainted from fear and was still trembling in her unconscious state, Jeremy couldn't help but shake his head.

He hadn't killed Lisa. Although he had killed many people before, Jeremy was not a man who relished in killing.

Lisa might have been foul-mouthed. But she hadn't committed any grave error. A profound lesson to teach her a lasting memory was sufficient.

Jeremy believed that after this experience, she would dare not speak recklessly for the rest of her life.

Just as he was about to drag the unconscious Lisa away.

Jeremy suddenly felt his hair stand on end, and his pupils contracted sharply as his keen senses sent him a warning of danger.

Without a second thought, Jeremy immediately ducked. "Whoosh!"

A gust of wind swept over his head, the force of it whistling through the air.

"Bang!"

A sound akin to a watermelon bursting rang out behind Jeremy.

Although he had dodged the surprise attack, the unconscious Lisa was not so fortunate.

Her head exploded instantly, with red and white brain matter splattering everywhere.

Her body convulsed a couple of times before becoming still, instantly killed by the attacker!

Poor Lisa, having fainted, would never have the chance to wake up again.

Jeremy stood up and slowly turned to look behind him.

Next to Lisa's body stood a ferocious-looking monster.

The creature was on all fours, with a long tail and sharp claws still dripping with blood.

Noticing Jeremy's gaze, it even extended a tongue as red as a snake's and licked its claws, its eyes full of provocation towards Jeremy.

[Aberration (Elite)]

[Level]: lv8

[Attack]: 307-321

[Defense]: 124

[Skills]: Claw Strike, Gnaw, Stealth, Ambush

[Tip]: Its weakness is in the abdomen. Attacking the abdomen causes double damage. Killing it with its tail grants 1 tier-2 energy crystal.

As Jeremy had expected, the attacker was indeed the aberration.

Its strength had increased significantly from lv5 to lv8, with its attack and defense more than doubling.

Even knowing the terrifying speed of these monsters' evolution, Jeremy was astonished.

He had thought his own power was increasing rapidly. But these creatures were even more exaggerated.

The pain from its body completely enraged the aberration. It roared and its tail swept towards Jeremy.

However, Jeremy, relying on his nimble movements, dodged it and once again left a wound on the aberration.

In the arena, the aberration's roars continued. But no matter how it attacked, it couldn't lay a hand on Jeremy. As time went on, the number of wounds on its body kept increasing.

Those lurking in the shadows watching Jeremy's close combat with the monster couldn't help but swallow hard.

How could Jeremy be this strong?

Is this really the level a human can achieve?!

Not far from the arena, a team of five students was also watching this scene.

One of the shorter boys exclaimed in surprise, "Jeremy is just too strong, being able to fight such a terrifying monster up close!"

These students, daring to venture out, naturally had some strength, managing to reach level 3 through their collaboration.

They had witnessed the horror of the monsters, finding it difficult to even block their attacks, let alone engage in close combat with them.

A petite girl in the team, her eyes sparkling, said, "Jeremy is just too cool. I've always wanted to get to know him but never had the chance. I'll definitely go ask him for his contact information later."

Hearing the girl's praise for Jeremy, a burly student next to her showed a hint of jealousy and disdainfully said, "It's just good luck that he got some explosives. Once our levels are as high as his, we'll definitely be no weaker than him!"

The leader of the group, a boy wearing glasses, smiled and said, "The fight will probably be over soon. I'll ask Jeremy later if he wants to join us. After all, we are classmates. I think he won't refuse."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Having someone as powerful as Jeremy on their side would undoubtedly be a great asset.

In the stadium, although the mutant's strength and speed were superior to Jeremy's, he managed to turn the tide several times with his rich combat experience and agile maneuvers.

Despite this, he still suffered a minor injury to his arm from the mutant's claws.

In contrast, the mutant was covered in wounds.

Its body was drenched in blood. And its originally fierce attacks now showed signs of weakening.

Jeremy noticed the mutant's intent to retreat.

Without having obtained the level 2 energy crystal, Jeremy naturally couldn't let it escape.

He dodged the mutant's sweeping tail again and seized the opportunity to drive his fang dagger deep into it.

"Splatter!"

Blood splattered everywhere!

The tail had been a primary target for Jeremy. This time he exerted all his strength.

His dagger followed the wound he had made earlier, cutting off the mutant's tail entirely.

The mutant let out a pained howl, opening its huge mouth to bite at Jeremy, attempting to repel him.

However, Jeremy used the mutant's severed tail to block its attack, then wrapped himself around the mutant's neck, flipping onto its back. He gripped the severed tail with both hands and pulled hard.

The grating sound of breaking bones emanated from the mutant's neck.

Jeremy had forcibly broken its neck!
