All My Beasts are Legendary - Chapter 228
Chapter 228: Chapter 163 Swooping Neptunian Birds, Obscurus’s Assassination
“You have won 1 reward point and 1 bad karma point for killing a sea alpaca on the low Bronze level. The more bad karma points you get, the more possible you will be attacked by powerful creatures living in this sea.”
“You are ranked 2113th among all Beast Tamers taking adventures here at the moment.”
“You will get 100 extra reward points if you can get into the top 100 of the Beast Tamers in an hour.”
“You will get 200 extra reward points if you can get into the top 50 of the Beast Tamers in an hour.”
“300 extra reward points if you get into the top 20.”
“400 extra reward points if you get into the top 10.”
“500 extra reward points if you are ranked 5th.”
“600 extra reward points if you are ranked 4th.”
“700 extra reward points if you are ranked 3rd.”
“800 extra reward points if you are ranked 2nd.”
“1000 extra reward points if you are ranked 1st.”
“The ranking list will be updated every hour. You will receive the extra points, if there are any, after each update. Now, there are 56 minutes to go to the next update of the ranking list.”
When the Treasure Snail Image sent out by Ye Xuan had killed the sea alpaca in the distance.
A message showed up in his mind right away.
What showed up with the message together was a ranking list.
“I can get one reward point for killing a monster on the low Bronze level? And there are extra reward points if I can get into the top one hundred? The extra points for the person ranked first are one thousand, and the number one will get these extra reward points every hour?”
Ye Xuan was slightly shocked by the message he had received.
If the reward points were all he would get, it would be quite easy for him to win one hundred thousand points quickly with his strength and techniques.
However, in addition to the reward points, he would also get bad karma points. He would be haunted by karma for killing the monsters living in this world. That was beyond his anticipation.
“2113th place?”
Ye Xuan took a deep breath. He knew he should speed up the pace to kill more monsters.
According to the ranking list, he found the first Beast Tamer to start the trial had entered this trial ground only four minutes earlier than he did.
However, the Beast Tamer ranked first had thirty-two points at the moment. That meant he got those thirty-two points in less than four minutes.
To get the same reward points, Ye Xuan would need to kill thirty-two sea alpacas.
Of course, it would be absolutely faster if he could kill more monsters on the Silver level.
However, he had no idea yet how many points he would get for killing Silver-level monsters.
In addition, the sea alpaca he just killed was only on the low Bronze level.
He wondered how many reward points he would respectively get for killing monsters on the intermediate, the high, and the peak Bronze level.
“Five on the peak Silver level, twelve on the Silver level, twenty-one on the intermediate Silver level, thirty-two on the low Silver level, and nine nestlings on the Bronze level?”
Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness and sent a dash of his consciousness out. Through the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Real-Time Map, he saw the giant white sea birds on the island.
He turned around to look back at the same time. He vaguely saw a few white sea birds flying in the sky.
[Swooping Neptunian Bird: Two Stars
Beast Level: Silver (Peak)
Abilities: Neptunian Wind Manipulation, Neptunian Tempest Kill, Neptunian Group Chirp, Swooping Neptunian Claw]
Ye Xuan identified the attributes of those birds in an instant.
There was nothing special about the attributes of those sea birds, but their grade was not bad.
At least, they had the potential to achieve the Gold level.
Of course, their grade was only not bad for average Beast Tamers.
For Ye Xuan, those sea birds were useless.
“I will try to kill one of them!”
Looking at the cliff far away, where the white sea birds were resting, Ye Xuan made up his mind.
Then he shifted his consciousness to take back the Treasure Snail Image that he had sent out not long ago.
Whoosh!
However, as soon as he took back the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Treasure Snail Image, the Tidal Treasure Snail seemed to find the place interesting.
It flew out of Ye Xuan’s Beast Lair in a flash and stopped in front of him. Then it flew up whirling and stopped on his head in the end, as it used to.
It looked like an odd but artistic hat on Ye Xuan’s head.
“Dude…”
Ye Xuan adjusted the “hat” on his head helplessly.
“Obscurus!”
Then he shifted his consciousness to call Obscurus out of its Beast Lair.
He sent it to where the giant white birds were resting.
There were dozens of Swooping Neptunian Birds on the Silver level on the island.
He figured even he would not be a rival for them if those Swooping Neptunian Birds launched a joint attack against him. In that case, the only option he was left with was to run away.
Therefore, to deal with those Swooping Neptunian Birds, the best way was to assassinate them.
To kill them quietly one by one.
Ye Xuan thought those Swooping Neptunian Birds might see him if he kept standing there.
To prevent that from happening, he went to hide behind a giant rock right away.
Whoosh!
Ye Xuan sensed Obscurus’s fast movement.
It reached six miles away, right below the cliff, very soon.
Then it exerted the Invisibility Technique to move upward, approaching one of the nestlings on the peak Bronze level of those Swooping Neptunian Birds.
That Swooping Neptunian Bird was supposed to be a nestling, but it was not small at all.
Sleeping on the cliff, it was ignorant of the approaching danger.
Whoosh!
Obscurus’s Obscure Blade showed up in a black fog when it had approached the bird.
Obscurus stabbed the nestling of Swooping Neptunian Birds in the heart with the Obscure Blade.
Then, feeling the pain, the Swooping Neptunian Bird was about to struggle and shriek.
But right at that moment, the black fog extending from Obscurus shrouded the dying bird in an instant. Whatever noises it made, they were immediately muted.
Then the black fog flashed across the air and disappeared right away.
Obscurus became invisible once again.
“You have won 1 reward point and 1 bad karma point for killing 1 Swooping Neptunian Bird on the peak Bronze level.”
At the same time, a message showed up in Ye Xuan’s head.
“One reward point? The reward point for killing a monster on the peak Bronze level is also one? So, it is one point for all Bronze-level monsters? Intermediate or peak that doesn’t matter at all?”
A shadow flashed across Ye Xuan’s eyes.
In that case, it would probably be impossible for him to get one hundred thousand points simply by killing a great number of Bronze-level beasts.
“Try the Silver-level ones!”
Ye Xuan maneuvered Obscurus to attack a Silver-level monster right away.
Whoosh!
Holding the black Obscure Blade in hand, Obscurus, still invisible at the moment, approached a Swooping Neptunian Bird on the low Silver level on the cliff.
That was a steady grip. Obscurus did not have any expression on the face. It looked so cold that it seemed emotionless.
It was like a killer who had gone through tons of terrible training and therefore lost his feelings.
Behind Obscurus, the Swooping Neptunian Bird on the peak Bronze level killed with the Obscure Blade was still lying there motionlessly.
There was no visible injury on the bird.
It did not smell blood.
That was how strong Obscurus was as an Assassination-type beast.
Whoosh!
Soon, what had happened to the nestling on the peak Bronze level also happened to a Swooping Neptunian Bird on the low Silver level.
It was also tranquil when the Swooping Neptunian Bird was killed. Not any noise was made.
Not a hint of bloody smell spread in the air.
It looked as if the bird was sleeping there.
However, it was also because most of the Swooping Neptunian Birds on the cliff were lying there like that.
Only a few Swooping Neptunian Birds were flying around in the sky, watching out for the surroundings.
But they apparently did not see Obscurus, who had slipped in here so quietly and killed two of their companions in a short time.
“You have won 2 reward points and 2 bad karma points for killing 1 Swooping Neptunian Bird on the low Silver level.”
?
Ye Xuan’s face slightly fell when he had read the message sent to him.
Only two reward points for a monster on the low Silver level?
He felt it would be a little difficult for him to get one hundred thousand points in that case.
Most importantly, if he got all of the one hundred thousand reward points through killing monsters, he would also get one hundred thousand bad karma points.
No one knew what would happen to him in this world by then.
It was a huge trap.
“Keep going!”
Ye Xuan told Obscurus to go on with the assassination after having taken a deep breath.
Puff!
Puff!
Following Ye Xuan’s orders, Obscurus kept moving around emotionlessly on the cliff. No one could see it.
None of the Swooping Neptunian Birds killed by it made any noise.
In this way, it killed thirteen Swooping Neptunian Birds on the low Silver level on this cliff in as short as two minutes.
As to the nine nestlings of the Swooping Neptunian Birds, none of them survived. Obscurus killed all of them.
In this way, Ye Xuan’s reward points, plus what he had got from killing the sea alpaca, amounted to thirty-six in only two minutes.
That made his rank soar to the fifth from the 2113th in the blink of an eye.
But Ye Xuan knew he could not keep doing the same for a long time.
He would absolutely be found out very soon if Obscurus kept assassinating the Swooping Neptunian Birds in the same way.
“Ye Xuan from the Cerulean Planet?”
Not only one’s rank and name were displayed on the ranking list, but the planet he or she was from was displayed.
Though no one knew how this was achieved in the trial of the thirty-six Dragon Cities in the Sea.
At the moment, all of the Beast Tamers who had entered the trial ground were slightly astonished after having seen the fast improvement of Ye Xuan’s rank.
“Is this dude so lucky?”
In their eyes, getting so many points in such a short time must be attributed to his good luck.
He must be lucky enough to have run into a group of monsters on lower levels.
Some Beast Tamers who thought themselves strong were quite agitated.
They prayed they would run into a big group of beasts very soon.
If they could run into a big group of beasts as well, it would not be difficult for them to get those points with their strength.
“But that dude should slow down very soon. He has got so many points already.”
When seeing Ye Xuan’s rank, some people thought to remain in fifth place for more than ten seconds.
“Speed up!”
At the same time, over the sea, Miao Shuyao had sent out a spiritual crane. Standing on the back of the spiritual crane and guided by the Peaceful White Dove, she headed for where Ye Xuan was at high speed.
No one was chasing her at the moment.
She was just scared. She headed for where Ye Xuan was at high speed as soon as the Peaceful White Dove had sensed his location, just in case anything came up.
“Those things…”
Ye Xuan had no idea that Miao Shuyao was coming to him.
He had no idea that many people in the Secret Realm were paying attention to his rank on the ranking list at the moment, either.
Hiding behind a rock, he observed the four Swooping Neptunian Birds on the intermediate Silver level on the cliff far away through the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Real-Time Map. Those four birds were very close to each other. Then a cold look flashed across his face.
Those four Swooping Neptunian Birds on the intermediate Silver level were not sleeping.
Lying there, they were chirping to each other instead.
Ye Xuan had no idea what they were talking about.
At the same time, they happened to block his view. He could not see the ten-odd Swooping Neptunian Birds on the low Silver level behind them at the moment.
In the meantime, there were Swooping Neptunian Birds on the high Silver level or the peak Silver level in other directions.
Therefore, Obscurus could not bypass them at all.
“Go ahead!”
Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness to take back the Tidal Treasure Snail on his head into its Beast Lair despite its reluctance.
Then he called out as many as four Tidal Treasure Snails all at once. They showed up on the cliff in the distance in a second. He had thrown caution to the wind. It did not matter to him whether he would be exposed anymore.
Whoosh!
When the four Tidal Treasure Snails had shown up to cooperate with them, Obscurus made a blurry obscure light shroud the four Swooping Neptunian Birds on the intermediate Silver level right away.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Then, in an instant, the four Swooping Neptunian Birds on the intermediate Silver level were all decapitated by the four Tidal Treasure Snails.
“You have won 3 points for killing 1 Swooping Neptunian Bird on the intermediate Silver level.”
“You have won…”
“Your points have amounted to 48. You are currently ranked first on the ranking list.”
