nVincent grabbed onto his saber using both hands and leaped into the air.

n

n

nHis Black Battle Saber strike down on the Phantom Lion.

n

n

n

n

n“No!”

n

n

nSwire roared and closed his eyes in despair.

n

n

nHe thought of Vincent’s miserable death under the claws of the Phantom Lion.

n

n

nSwoosh!

n

n

n

n

nA saber aura formed by black flames flew towards the Phantom Lion’s forehead.

n

n

nRoar!

n

n

nThe Phantom Lion suddenly let out a scream.

n

n

nSwire opened his eyes in a daze.

n

n

n

n

nAfter seeing the Phantom Lion split into two, Vincent held his saber in one hand and stood proudly whilst black flames were burning on his body.

n

n

nHe was like an undefeatable devil!

n

n

nVincent twisted his saber and placed it back into the scabbard behind him.

n

n

nThe situation was rather dire earlier, so he had to use his special ability on his saber.

n

n

nIn order to ensure a one-hit kill, he unleashed his power without any hesitation.

n

n

nThis caused his body to be pushed to the brink of exhaustion.

n

n

n

n

nThe feeling of weakness surged upon him like a wave.

n

n

nHowever, there was nothing he could do as he had used all his strength.

n

n

nAfter all, this was only a low-level Phantom Lion, and it was fast.

n

n

nHe was afraid that he would not be able to kill it in one hit.

n

n

nIf that happened, not only would he have failed to save Swire, but he might die too.

n

n

nSwire went to Vincent.

n

n

nHe gulped as he saw the Phantom Lion split into two before him.

n

n

n“My God!”

n

n

n

n

n“Vincent! You actually killed it!”

n

n

nSwire looked at Vincent in shock.

n

n

nThe situation before him was something that he could have never imagine.

n

n

nThey had both just awakened, but Vincent was already ready and able to kill a beginner monster.

n

n

nHowever, Swire was being chased by a beginner monster instead.

n

n

nThe difference between the two was obvious.

n

n

nVincent did not pay any attention to Swire, as he received a few system notifications that made him really excited.

n

n

n“Ding! Congratulations, host, mountain collapsing strike proficiency has reached 50%!”

n

n

n“Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully killed a beginner monster, Phantom Lion. You have received a bottle of body-forging potion.”

n

n

n“Do you wish to use it?”

n

n

n“Eh? It’s not an upgrade pill!”

n

n

nOut of curiosity, Vincent checked the information on the body-forging medicine.

n

n

nBody-forging medicine: apply it all over the body. It can strengthen the body and remove impurities from the body. There will be a slight tingling pain sensation.

n

n

n

n

nAfter reading the information regarding the medicine, Vincent knew that this was not something that he could use at the moment. He then decided to reject it.

n

n

n“Ding! Due to the host’s refusal to use the body-forging medicine, special storage space has been opened.”

n

n

n“Body-forging medicine has been stored.”

n

n

nVincent was stunned. His emotional system still had storage space!

n

n

nUpon further investigation, he discovered that there were a total of 30 slots. Each slot could store 99 sets of the same item.

n

n

nEven storage items could be stored inside.

n

n

nVincent’s eyes lit up.

n

n

nThis meant that he almost had unlimited storage space!

n

n

nAfter accepting everything, Vincent looked at Swire.

n

n

n“Swire, what are you doing outside the city?”

n

n

n“Although you have an A-class superpower, you don’t have any combat ability. Are you courting death by coming to the wilderness alone?”

n

n

nSwire waved the sparkling psionic pistol in his hand.

n

n

n“Who says I don’t have combat ability!”

n

n

nVincent was speechless.

n

n

nThe psionic pistol relied on compressing psionic power to attack, so its power was naturally unusual.

n

n

nA-Class and above could also be equipped with crystals to save psionic energy in their bodies.

n

n

nAlthough the power was not weak, it was, however, very expensive.

n

n

nOnly a rich second generation like Swire was willing to waste so much.

n

n

n“I originally thought that relying on the flying ability of Angel’s Wings would not be embarrassing.”

n

n

n“I never thought that I would meet such a deviant fella on the first day.” Swire became a little embarrassed.

n

n

n“You’re really unlucky.”

n

n

nVincent patted Swire’s shoulder pitifully.

n

n

n“Do you still want to continue?”

n

n

nVincent pointed in the direction of the forest.

n

n

n“No, no, no!”

n

n

nSwire shook his head. “I’ve used up most of the crystals, and I don’t have much psionic power left.”

n

n

n“I don’t want to die yet.”

n

n

nVincent looked at Swire; how could he not have known that he was looking for an excuse.

n

n

nIt was obvious that he was frightened by the Phantom Lion.

n

n

n“Then let’s go, I want to go back too.”

n

n

nWhile talking, Vincent had already recovered quite a bit of strength and was the first one to walk towards the city.

n

n

nOn the way, Swire saw that Vincent was covered in blood and was secretly shocked.

n

n

nHe could tell that the blood on Vincent’s body was not the blood of one or two monsters.

n

n

n“Vincent, my friend, did you stay outside the city for a day?”

n

n

nVincent nodded and did not say anything further.

n

n

n“Then what strength do you have now? Even such a troublesome fellow like the Phantom Lion was killed in one strike!”

n

n

n“Not much. I did give my all just now.”

n

n

nVincent did not give Swire a direct answer.

n

n

nGiven Vincent’s reply, Swire curled his lips and did not pursue the matter any further.

n

n

nWhen they returned to the city gate, the soldier saw that Vincent was covered in blood. He was stunned.

n

n

nAt first, he thought that Vincent was only going out to have a look around. He did not expect that he would actually fight a monster.

n

n

nHaving fought monsters all year round, he could easily tell that the blood on Vincent’s body belonged to different monsters.

n

n

nAt Vincent’s age, there were very few people who could fight and win against monsters.

n

n

nAfter verifying both their identities, the soldier watched the two enter the city in shock.

n

n

n“Vincent, thank you for saving me. In the future, I won’t be worse than you!”

n

n

nSwire said firmly before separating from Vincent.

n

n

nVincent naturally encouraged him.

n

n

nUnder Swire’s insistence, the two even made a bet to fight it out during the college freshmen competition.

n

n

nAn hour later, Vincent returned home, took off his dirty clothes, and threw himself on the bed like he was a broken sack.

n

n

nThe day of constant fighting had exhausted him physically and mentally. However, compared to what he had gained, it was nothing.

n

n

nHe even liked the feeling of fighting.

n

n

nIn the city, it was safe and quiet.

n

n

nOutside the city, danger lurked everywhere.

n

n

nThe two completely different feelings gave him an extremely powerful spiritual impact.

n

n

nIt was as if a lifetime had passed!

n

n

nThese words were the most suitable description to describe his current mood.

n

n

nAfter resting for more than half an hour, Vincent stood up and took a shower. After showering, he then took out the body forging medicine.

n

n

nHe looked at the pale blue liquid in the glass bottle in his hand. The silver light inside was sparkling like stars. It was very beautiful.

n

n

nHe opened the lid and sniffed. There was no smell at all.

n

n

nHe poured a little onto his palm hesitantly and rubbed it on his arm. It felt ice-cold and was very comfortable.

n

n

nOther than that, he did not feel anything else.

n

n

n“Didn’t you say that it would be a little painful?”

n

n

nVincent muttered in confusion. He then continued to apply the remaining medicine to his entire body.

n

n

nThe comfortable feeling made him groan.

n

n

nHe could feel that something was flowing into his body through his pores.

n

n

nFollowing the flow of his blood, it flowed through his entire body.

n

n

nHiss!

n

n

nHe suddenly felt a piercing pain in his arm.

n

n

n“Is it here?”

n

n

nThe pain was not unbearable. Vincent lowered his head curiously. He then saw something black that emitted a foul smell coming out of his pores.

n

n

nHe then felt a sharp pain all over his body.

n

n

nVincent suddenly widened his eyes and cried out in pain. It was very painful.

n

n

nThe pain in one place was still bearable, but the pain he felt on his entire body could not be endured.

n

n

nIt was like a whip.

n

n

nAnd it was the kind that was dipped in cold water.

n

n

n“F*CK!”

n

n

n“F*CK!”

n

n

nVincent cursed, repeatedly.

n

n

nHe curled up on the ground, rolled around, and finally fainted.
