Chapter 117 Battle for Survival

The main hunting group from their village could take on those three beasts too, but with a significant cost and uncertainty.

Now, the man that stood in front of them did that with just a wave of his hand. What level of power did he achieve?

“Thank you for saving us.” One man said.

Arthur already knew it was the grandson of Mohe, so he smiled.

“It was nothing. What are you doing down here? It is dangerous.”

He knew the reason, but acted as if he hadn’t. What would they think of him if they discovered he was spying on them? Arthur had a goal in mind, and he wanted to make these people believe in him.

A gorgeous woman stepped forward, and said, “this is the stupid test from our village. We are only alive because of you.”

“Don’t think that highly of me, milady. Do you need something else to pass this test of yours?” Arthur said.

“Well, they asked us to bring anything of value we found.”

The other woman that was right next pulled who just spoke over, and whispered, “Taini, we don’t know him. Don’t spill out our secrets.”

That sentence brought them back to reality. Even if that man saved them, what proof did they have that he wasn’t dangerous? All of them put their weapons high, trying to defend themselves if Arthur tried anything.

“You have all the reasons to be suspicious, but I’m not that kind of person. You,” Arthur pointed at Mohe’s grandson, “I know your grandfather, Mohe? He’s one of my devotees.”

“What? That means you are…”

“Akhur, yes.”

It was another shock to them, especially to that girl who thought Akhur was just a myth. They did not mutter a word for some time until Mohe’s grandson finally said something.

“Thank you for taking care of my grandfather.” He said and bowed.

Arthur tapped him on the shoulder and said he did not need to bow like that, but he still kept his position for at least 10 seconds.

“You still need to bring something of value to your tribe. I’ll help you get that.”

“Really? Then we will trouble you, celestial Akhur.”

They all believed he was indeed Akhur from the rumors, as there was no way he would know Mohe and link that youth to him.

“My grandfather must have told him about me. I hope it was good things, at least.”

Arthur floated behind them and only followed. He was paying attention to their surroundings, as he would be the first one to notice if something was wrong. It was.

The youths thought it was a good thing that no beasts were attacking them. Perhaps Akhur’s presence was the reason behind that, but Arthur knew better.

It must have a reason to why there were no beasts around the area they were in, and usually the reason wasn’t something pleasing.

At that moment, behind one of the strange buildings, a giant stood up slowly. It was not a giant made of flesh, but of metal, with a blue-colored ball tucked inside his chest.

“This thing looks like a robot. What the hell?”

Arthur saw the level of that giant, 93. It was strong, and the impact of their battle would surely kill the youths.

“All of you, return to where you came from. This is a strong opponent, and you’ll die when me and him fight. Don’t worry, I’ll come back with something of value for you. Just wait near the entrance for me.” Arthur said.

They instantly believed the words coming from Arthur, and ran from the area, returning to the entrance of the underground area. Arthur hoped that none of them faced any troubles on their way out.

Now, gazing at the giant, Arthur went all out, as he knew this would be a tough fight. The first ability he used was his dragon transformation, and this time, it was way stronger.

The dragon transformation had different levels, and the higher he leveled up, the stronger he got.

[Level 51-99: Half-dragon appearance with a great boost of attributes, and other unique skills during your dragon form.]

All of Arthur’s body turned black, surrounded by black scales that shone even in the dark. His nails turned into claws as big as a forearm and changed his posture to a more beast one.

The size of his body also went through a drastic change, and he grew in size, having almost 5 meters of height, and a bulky body. If anyone looked at it, there was no way they would link that to his former appearance.

Another change was on his face, who looked exactly like the head of a dragon, coupled with the rest of the changes, as well as a tail. He looked like a small-sized dragon.

“This feeling is extraordinary.” Arthur thought.

All of his attributes tripled their value, which meant he was in a completely different realm of strength than before.

He looked at the giant, who was already preparing a punch that came crushing down with astonishing strength. It broke a few buildings on the way, yet the moment it got closer to Arthur, he vanished.

The different in speed was visible, and the giant could not keep up with Arthur. His strength may be superior because of the size and weight, but it meant nothing if none of his hits landed.

Arthur scanned that giant while avoiding all of its attacks, jumping from building to building, and also using his flight spell to dodge.

“His weak point must be that blue core on his chest.” With that thought in mind, Arthur climbed the arm of the giant as soon as it threw a punch.

Within seconds, he was already near the blue-colored core. Arthur closed his fist and punched it, using all of his body strength.

Bang.

Cracks appeared all over the blue core, yet it did not break. A
