Lord Evolution: Starting With SS-rank Skills

"Do not let any of the liquid touch you!"

Rowan barked at Black Drifter as he began sprinting towards the Red-dooms. He didn't possess any powerful long-range attack skill; the only suitable skills available at the moment,powerful enough to at least cause minor damage on the Red-dooms, were his refined swordsmanship and agile movement skills. Luckily, he had already mastered those skills.

The Red-doom using Venom spray was still activating the skill at a pretty slow pace — the weird liquid on its body moved in a strange manner, as though the body of the Red-doom had a powerful machine forcefully blowing the liquid.

Suddenly!

BOOM!

The liquids burst out, spraying in the direction of Black Drifter at a shocking pace.

Black Drifter was caught off guard, still puzzled by the earlier failure of his skills, and was pushed back by the venom spray.

He tried to flap his wings to regain his composure in the air and block the venomous liquid, but it was already too late as it had already taken effect.

"Fuck, too late!" Rowan cussed.

[ Your pet ( Black Drifter ) has been poisoned — All stats will reduce by 50% for the next ten minutes ]

Rowan barked at Black Drifter to move away from the battlefield till he was whole again. Black Drifter obeyed and used the last bit of strength left in its wings to fly away from the range of the Red-dooms.

Rowan had already arrived in front of the Red-dooms.

The Red-dooms also noticed his presence.

VENOM SPRAY!

Another Red-doom activated the deadly skill, and the liquid on its body began reacting as usual — from nearby, it felt as though the liquid was boiling. It even released a similar sound.

"Might have worked on my pet, but do not hope the same for me!"

Rowan clutched his dagger and blasted himself towards the direction of another Red-doom.

The one using the VENOM SPRAY turned in its direction.@@novelbin@@

"Is it going to use the skill on its colleague just to catch me?" Rowan muttered to himself.

He expected the monster to call off the attack upon seeing his current position, but it appeared he was wrong.

BOOM!

The venom from its body blasted in his direction at a shocking pace. Yet Rowan moved away just in time, and the venom sprayed onto the body of the one he was standing close to.

Rowan waited for a notification, but received none.

"It won't affect another Red-doom. Makes sense."

But he had no time to complete his thought as another Red-doom began activating the same skill.

"What the fuck!" Rowan cursed, "Why are they all spamming the same skill?!"

Though puzzled, he didn't make the mistake of standing to ascertain what the skill might do; he quickly sprinted away from the range of the Red-doom, causing it to spray its venom onto empty ground.

After it had finished activating its attack, another Red-doom beside it did the same.

The next three minutes were spent by Rowan dodging the venom sprays aimed at him.

While doing so did not cost him much, it soon became extremely annoying to evade the same attack more than twenty times. Experience new stories on My Virtual Library Empire

Luckily, Blaze had already recovered after consuming one more monster core from a goblin he had landed beside.

At that moment, Blaze's eyes burned with vengeful red anger.

Blaze activated Inferno Rampage immediately — his furs began to glow, the light in his eyes sharpened, and a stronger flamy aura wrapped around him.

Without wasting a moment, Blaze blasted toward the nearest Red-doom, his momentum akin to that of a flying cannonball.

Rowan, who was busy evading the venom spray from yet another Red-doom, spotted Blaze and a smile crept onto his face.

Once Blaze was closer, it shot itself directly at the face of its target.

BOOM! The sound of the collision was akin to a cannonball exploding against a stationary target.

The force, along with the powerful flames surrounding Blaze, dealt a critical attack on the target — its senses of sight, smell, and hearing were disoriented beyond recognition, rendering them utterly useless.

[ Your pet has dealt a critical attack! ]

Rowan received a quick notification just before Blaze's target began reacting to the attack.

SHRIEK!

It let out a loud, painful shriek that echoed across a long distance. Moreover, it began moving about chaotically, even colliding with its colleagues as its sense of direction had been utterly destroyed by Blaze.

Seeing this, Rowan grinned broadly and seized the opportunity.

Blaze had already moved far away, and immediately, Inferno Rampage deactivated.

Rowan activated every movement and sword skill in his possession and charged at the Red-doom.

He leapt upward with all the strength he could muster in his legs; luckily, he managed to reach a desirable height between the huge head of the Red-doom and its upper body. Fortunately, this gap was also a known weak point.

BLADE SAINT!

Utilizing his A-rank sword skill, Rowan stabbed his two equipped swords into the neck of the Red-doom.

This attack was capable of dealing another critical blow, but it could not take the monster down due to its enormous build, which served as an additional form of defense.

"Die!"

However, Rowan hadn't released his grip on the sword yet. He planted his feet on the shoulder of the Red-Doom and drove his blade further into its neck, causing it to emit an even louder cry of pain.

Rowan then shifted his stance, moving the sword at various angles to slash at its neck from within. For about thirty relentless seconds, he continued his brutal assault, and his efforts proved successful as the huge body of the Red-doom collapsed onto the ground with a resounding thud.

However, quite unusually, once the Red-doom fell, beside its head a glowing item could be seen. Rowan took a closer look and discovered it was a small red Jerry can.

[ You slayed x1 Red-doom | +11000 Evolution Points, +1 Litre of Devouring Venom. ]

[ 100x Reward activated; you have received 11,000,000 Evolution Points, 100 Litres of Devouring Venom ]

[ Devouring Venom: Halves the stat of opponent for ten minutes when sprayed ]

"Oh great, I actually received something other than a monster core from killing one of them. That venom would definitely prove useful later against weaker monsters, and would even have a greater effect against humans!" Rowan rejoiced.

Though his happy moments were short-lived.

[ DANGER! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! ]
