Chapter 557 New Fallen Scroll



[Fallen Scroll from the Lost Tree identified near the host...]

[Host, find the scroll to complete the collection of prizes regarding the second leaf absorbed!]

[Hint: the scroll is within a 1-kilometer radius of the host.]

Lothur opened his eyes wider as he read such messages, feeling an incredible sensation after so long since he had absorbed what was inside the leaf that Viktoria had as a necklace.

It had given him the ability that allowed him to begin his cultivation journey in this world and had also given him advances in attributes.

Consequently, upon discovering that one of these items was nearby, Lothur couldn't wait to find it and get the enhancements he would be entitled to after touching it!

'Where is it? Where are you?' He stopped running and looked at the surroundings, using his visual ability to try to identify some objects similar to the one Viktoria had.

However, such a thing was in a considerable space, a place filled with spiritual beings capable of 'blurring' his analysis, so it was by no means easy for him to identify it.

While searching, he slowly began to look for places that might have secret entrances, the underground, where he thought there were likely tunnels that could lead him to the right place.

As expected, many tunnels were nearby, but Lothur could not tell which one was the best to follow at this early point.

'Maybe I should fight some of the stronger beings here? 3rd stage beings can communicate with me, so maybe I'll get useful information from them!' He pondered, seeing that level 16 beings practically surrounded him.

"Human, are you here to rob us? Where did you come from?" One of them asked.

To these beasts, the appearance of beings of any race different from those already existing in that area was a sign of a threat. That was particularly true in the case of Lothur, who had just killed an entire battalion of natives in the area.

Unlike the guardian beast of the area, they did not know the purpose of this place. And since no one had ever been there before, Lothur's presence was like an alarming sign of the beginning of the end for them.

Therefore, a battalion of these beings, with different races present, were already in Lothur's vicinity, targeting him with negative intentions.

Lothur observed them and said. "Beings from this Secret Realm, I am here in search of something similar to this." He picked up a leaf from the ground and showed it to those creatures. "That is all I desire. I promise I won't do anything against you if I can get it.

As long as no one attacks me, of course."

The beasts heard this, and as much as most there did not understand what he was talking about, some more or less had an idea of what he wanted.

Those beasts, aware of Lothur's interest, pressed their jaws together, glaring at that human in ugly ways.

"You might as well say you want our lives, too, you miserable bastard!"

"If you want that, you'll have to fight!" Another beast said, outraged at Lothur's request.

That leaf was revered among them. It was like the symbol of a religion. Something worshipped among the strongest in this place.

So how could they simply hand over its location to this unworthy newcomer?

Plus, they had a prophecy that said terrible things would happen once someone possessed that leaf, so naturally, they were quite afraid of losing control over it.

"Is that so?" Lothur frowned his eyebrows. "Well, I would rather not have to fight, but if you court death, I will do you the favor of sending you to the other world."

Dark flames appeared in Lothur's left hand as his eyes turned red. His right hand spun the Elemental Staff as if it were a fan.

At the same time, the pressure in his surroundings was high, and even those level 16 creatures were feeling an unusual heaviness in their bodies as they shivered at the darkness brought by Lothur.

"You're like a demon, damn you!"

eαglesnᴏνel "Abomination. We will never allow you to remove our symbol from here!"

The stronger ones shouted hostile words, feeling that even though they had numbers on their side, they would have trouble dealing with this invader of their territory.

Lothur no longer gave those creatures any choice and decided to act, first firing his laser sight at one of the strongest ones there, aimed at the heart of that enemy.

The being that looked like a sizeable blue-furred wolf saw the beam of red light coming toward its heart but didn't have time to react in time.

It simply expressed its surprise as it tried to jump back. But just as it was about to move, the powerful laser from Lothur's eyes pierced through its body, melting its heart and other organs.

Simultaneously, Lothur used the Space Belt again and appeared behind another level 16 beast, attacking with everything he had towards the middle of that creature's back.

The Elemental Staff was tough, and given his physical ability, he managed to imprint enough force on this weapon to go through that beast's skin.

The beast made a shrill sound of pain as it felt something go through its back and hit its heart, losing control over its great body.

The beasts in the surroundings saw two of their strongest leaders falling in front of that human. But they did not retreat but rather began to move against Lothur, more confident that he should be eliminated.

Lothur once again teleported, this time without his weapon in his hands but with both hands on fire.

He appeared on top of the head of a creature that looked like a mammoth and placed both hands on top of that head, letting his ability infiltrate his opponent's body.

Unlike humans, beasts didn't have much protection for their souls. Because of this, it was much easier to manipulate one of these creatures than a human.

Therefore, even though he was of a lower level, Lothur immediately made that beast lose control over its consciousness, turning it into a slave of his in a matter of seconds.

"Kill everyone in my path." He ordered as he moved again, this time without teleporting, as he had already spent half of his energy just to incapacitate three of those Transcendent beasts.

There were still some in his surroundings and the many Spiritual Warriors. But the strongest had been neutralized, and he now had a powerful ally!

In this situation, Lothur pointed one of his hands at the Elemental Staff and drew that weapon to himself, causing it to leave the trembling body of the beast that no longer had any hope of surviving.

Two other level 16 beasts saw all this and were feeling extreme hatred for Lothur as they attacked this human's 'fragile' body, trying to get revenge.

"Die!"

"You will pay for what you have done, damned human!"

The two shouted as they attacked the young Ritter.

Lothur saw this and just activated his defensive technique, causing his defenses to rise by more than 10%.

When the tail of one of the creatures that looked like a snake hit him, he simply continued standing where he was while using his left hand to grab his opponent's body.

"Damn it!" That green serpent shouted angrily, unable to retrieve its tail.

Simultaneously, Lothur's other opponent clapped, only with the little human's body between its giant hands, intending to crush him.

Lothur stood motionless to the attack of that orangutan-like being, stopping the enemy's movement with the hardness of his own body.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" The snake screamed in agony as it felt the blow from its ally hitting the tip of its tail.

But before one beast could become estranged from the other, Lothur dropped the staff in his right hand and moved the great tail of that creature using his two hands.

He swung it from side to side, slamming that creature's body against the ground and the surrounding trees, even using it to attack weaker enemies nearby.

Many 2nd stage beasts began to fly due to Lothur's blows, while the 3rd stage beasts narrowed their eyes, fearing this powerful opponent.

At this rate, they wouldn't last long against this human!
