Chapter 23: 23. Man vs wild

The beast crystals could be used to turn into beast weapons or beast armour. Every beast crystal depending on what beast it had come from had a different use and you could try to figure out what the beast was like.

For example, if a beast crystal was obtained from a large cheetah-like creature then it would most likely be armor that gives agility. Maybe it could be turned into a boot. When a beast crystal was considered incompatible with making a weapon, it could be sold for credit.

But Abraham who had read the novel knew one more use. A Qi master was able to absorb the energy inside the crystal by performing the Qi drain. Abraham took five basic crystals from his inventory and absorbed them. Afterward, the glowing in the crystal vanished and when Abraham let go of the crystal, it turned into dust.

Apart from performing the technique of Qi, another way to increase the Qi inside the body was by pushing its limit. Abraham was doing the training of using less Qi but that was not the only way. Unknown to most humans, when they put their life in life-or-death situations.

For such reason, Abraham was going to spend his time out in the wild. Constantly being in danger even when he needed rest.

Normally few humans went inside a red portal. That was why Abraham wasn't sure if he would even meet a single human on the planet. He was planning a hell experience for himself.

After the fights against the rat beasts, Abraham tried to find one that was alone. When that happened he activated the recording on the lens made by the Green and fight against the beast using only his superhuman stats. He stopped the recording and without storing the crystal he activated his Qi drain.

Due to his improved body after the evolution, it was now able to sustain more Qi energy. He waited for his hp to recover and then continued with the exploration.

Right now Abraham was walking inside a forest. With the lights from the two moons and his improved eyesight, he was able to navigate. There was a trail of blood that he was following. When he used the Inspect skill, the blood belong to a Rattaclaw. Another beast has hunted the rat beast and from Abraham's understanding, the beast should either be a basic or an intermediate category.

Beast was categorized into different names with basic being the weakest:

Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, King, Emperor, Legendary, Demigod, Demon.

Abraham had no plan to fight beasts higher than advanced with his current stats.

When he got closer to the bigger trail of blood, he was met with a tiger-like beast. It had two huge teeth hanging outside its mouth. Its stripe was of color grey and black. It was currently devouring the dead Rattaclaw near a gigantic rock. He sensed Abraham's presence and without moving, it looked at Abraham with its ferocious eyes. It growled with blood dripping from its mouth.

Abraham knew that at any moment the beast was ready to pound on him.

[ Name: Tigonoir]

[ Intermediate tier beast ]

[ HP ??]

The Tigonoir pressed a leg on the ground and instantly it jumped on Abraham. The distance between the two was not short but such a beast was able to do such an extraordinary feat. Instead of evading, Abraham also went forward. Such action has caused the tiger destination to be more forward. Abraham found the tiger above his body. The beast had tried to hurt Abraham with its claws but it was unsuccessful. On the opposite, Abraham activated his blood spray which hit the Tigonoir with full force. Its belly contracted from the force causing it to fail its landing.

Abraham immediately proceeded with a blood swipe. The beast twisted its body and evaded the attack and was back on all four.

Having learned his mistake, this time the Tigonoir sprinted toward Abraham. It wanted to smash the human with momentum. This time Abraham waited patiently for the right moment. Just when the Tigonoir came within range and swung its claw, Abraham activated the shadow control skill. He immediately formed a wall of shadow in front of him. When the beast's claw came into contact with the shadow, the speed of the beast decreased. The shadow control was able to slow down an object going through it.

[-30 mutant cells(MC)]

Depending on the intensity of the attack, different amounts of MC were used from the shadow control when slowing an attack.

Taking advantage before the beast fully traversed the shadow wall, Abraham launched a Qi swipe in front of him. The beast could not do anything and the Qi attack hit both of his front legs and slashed them from the beast's body. The beast got out of the shadow but due to missing its front legs, the beast fell to the ground. Abraham launched a blood hammer on the tiger's head, breaking its skull and killing it.

[ Tigonoir has been killed 500 exp ]

[ first intermediate beast kill 4000 exp ]

[ first Tigonoir killed 1000 exp ]

[level up] [level up]

[level 16]

[Exp 1140/6400]

Abraham minimized the messages and turned the beast on its back. Abraham used another third-stage Qi attack to cut open the beast and retrieved the beast's crystal. He then put it inside his inventory.

Abraham decided to view his shop tab in the system.

When opening the tab, he was able to search by category, and there was a whole bunch of items, Weapons, armour, Rings, and all sorts, but there were no skill books or ability books. All of them were greyed out.

To the side of the screen, it showed his inventory, where he had 45 basic tier crystals and one intermediate crystal.

He first chose the Rattaclaw crystals knowing fully well the outcome. The shop auto-sorted itself and gave a message in the centre.

[No items can be made with these crystals]

Abraham then opened the gauntlet category and touched one.

[3 intermediate crystal required to create this item]

The items required several crystals to make them. Some items required just the number of crystals while others needed specific beast crystals.

When he selected a ring among the items, he got another message.

[0/10 Advanced tier Deathbat crystals]

Usually, after obtaining beast crystals they would be taken to a beast weapons crafter who would charge for the making of the item. It had a cost of credit and time and different crafters could make different weapons even with the same crystal.

Abraham's ear picked a noise and he looked in its direction.

The wild only has one rule: Survival of the fittest.

Another beast was coming trying to take advantage of the recent battle.
