Blood Evolution System
chapter-101

The leader of the monsters roared at the top of its lungs, ringing everyone's eardrums.

The roar also acted as a command telling the rest of the monsters to attack the humans.

No one dared to disobey its command knowing full well that it was a cannibal who won't hesitate to devour their flesh if they so dare to express even a single sign of disobedience.

The leader of the Grim Gore was nameless and a monster through and through as it would eat the members of its herds whenever it feels like it, for absolutely no reason like hunger and simple to fulfill its desires. The taste of the flesh of its minions was a pretty satisfying appetizer.

Of course, the main course was humans, especially the young ones with tender flesh and soft bones, which easily shatter under the monster's teeth.

BOOM!

The cloudy night sky thundered as lightning flashed by.

Following the instructions in its monstrous roar, the group of monsters split into three different groups, as the leader and two of its strongest minions spearheaded the attack on the most powerful one among the humans, Vincent, as well as sixteen monsters at the eighth to the ninth rank of the magical realm galloped on all four like a horse to encircle a person lacking all sense of threat, almost as if he was a harmless little rabbit; However, they knew that giving enough time to the seemingly innocuous rabbit will be the end of them, so they surrounded him before he could make a move, using the most basic strategy of every herd, intending to overtake him by numbers. The rest of them circled around the humans in the grassy fields, heading towards Peter and Leila, who were standing nearby the overgrown bushes and under the shadow of the trees.

Two of the three monsters reached near Vincent and jumped at him with their jaws stretched opened to snap at his head.

"This is it, guys! I will engage in a battle with the boss and hold it back while you deal with the rests! Help me after you kill them!" Vincent's voice sounded in the ears of his comrades, and at the same time, he jumped to his left to evade the attack of the monsters that leaped towards him before brandishing his long, sharp, and slim scarlet sword to chop their heads from their bodies.

The two rank-9 monsters of the magical realm died on the spot.

‹ Congratulations to the owner for slaying two high-level monsters of the magical realm. You've obtained 180 experience points ›

‹ Level 4: 720/700 experience points ›

‹ Do you wanna level up? ›

The notifications of the system sounded in his mind.

The life force obtained from the two rank-9 monsters and purified by the life spell matrix has given him enough experience points to level up. However, he didn't want to, at least not now.

The uses of purified life force were plenty, from learning the content of a book in a few moments to scanning a large area in a single instant, after all.

Furthermore, it wasn't easy to earn it.

There was a fatal restriction to the life spell matrix. Lifeforce could only be collected and purified into experience points by the spell matrix from the monster killed by Vincent's hand.

This restriction was compulsory and imposed by the creator of the spell matrix.

If this restriction hasn't existed, Vincent would be able to gain experience points from everyone's kills.

That would have been wonderful!

Of course, he didn't have the time to think about such things.

In the very next second, once the two headless bodies of the monsters collapsed and Vincent's feet touched the ground, the leader of the monsters stomped on the ground, cutting through the air, as the fat on its stomach, thighs, and upper arm region undulated, closing the distance between them in a few moments before the monster's leader punched out with his right hand towards Vincent's chest.

Vincent's eyes widened, turning a dark shade of red as he reacted instantaneously.

‹ Blood count: 40/50 ›

A wave of blood surged forth from Vincent's hand, twirling and condensing into a crystallized blood shield in two-third of a second.

Bang!

The fist the size of a small barrel slammed into the crimson barrier, shattering it instantly. However, before the punch could land on him, Vincent slid towards its back by sliding from in between the gap of his legs while changing gears.

It wasn't just the weapon in his hand that changed but also the working of his body. He got faster than before, stronger than before, and he felt that somehow his focus got stronger, and his perception of time improved, albeit only subtly.

At the same time, as his body underwent unbelievable changes, the crimson sword made out of blood dissolved to blood as a black and blue dagger appeared in his hands as he went past it.

He slashed on the ankles of its legs with both of his daggers a few times within a second, chipping away at the thick layer of the negative energy barrier surrounding its legs before the monster leaped at him.

My bones will get crushed!

The monster was about to fall on top of him, when in that instant, Vincent put strength into his arm and pushed his body across the grassy field to get out of the range of the monster's body slam.

BAM!

The monster's body slammed on the ground, and shockwaves ensured along with a booming sound.

Looking at the monster as it stood up, Vincent's eyes glistened in a calculative glitter as a profound plan to defeat the monster adorned in thick negative energy formed in his mind, "The armor made out of negative energy is covering all of the vital parts of its body. It's too hard to penetrate through. Its limbs and eyes, however, are only surrounded by a thick layer of negative energy barrier instead of armor. Of course, the barrier won't be easy to shatter as it is too thick, but as long as I continue to attack at the same place, again and again, I will be able to chip away at its barrier. It won't take long before there would be no walls between its flesh and my daggers."
