2 days later,
Sam has finally entered the danger zone. He has already ventured deep into the danger zone. As you can tell, he wanted to find as many resources as possible.
He has one more day until David enters that part of the danger zone.
Sam has a one-day advantage over David, but he is unsure whether he will be able to find those resources. Even if he cannot find all of the resources, he will be content if he finds some of them.
After a while, he meets a group of monsters. However, defeating those Monsters took him very little time. Initial Mortal Grade monsters are simple to deal with.
Sam did not want to waste too much time fighting those monsters. So he is using his aura to keep those Monsters away from him.
'After a long time, I can finally draw my sword. I do not have to worry about surveillance or anything else in the danger zone. I can go all-out without holding back.'
Sam has already used the shadow movement technique to disappear from that location.
***************
"Boom!!!"
"Roar!!!!!"
A powerful explosion erupted inside the danger zone, and soon after, you could hear a Monster's painful cry. It was a mantis creature.
When Sam discovered the Monsters, he wasted no time in attacking them. The good news is that he used the shadow movement technique to sneak up behind Those Monsters without them noticing.
He attacks the Monsters before they can do anything else. A powerful collision occurred in that location, and you can already hear the painful cry of the mantis monster.
But it is not over yet, as Sam senses danger from behind. He immediately uses the shadow movement technique to vanish from that location.
"Boom!!!"
A powerful explosion occurred in the area where he was standing. Two mantis monsters appear in the scene.
These mantis monsters can imbue their blades with spiritual energy and launch energy attacks. Aside from that, they use the blades in their hands to attack their opponents. These blades are extremely sharp and durable.
Fortunately, Sam was fast enough to move that way. But it is not over yet. Those monsters were randomly attacking around them. They seemed to want to look for him.
However, Sam has already distanced himself from that place. He reappeared behind one mantis monster a minute later, using the same shadow movement technique.
He had already injured that monster. Furthermore, monsters lacked a strong regeneration ability. They will need some time to recover from their injuries.
This is a clear advantage for Sam. After appearing behind the monster, he begins attacking it. He continued to attack the monster with each swing.
The remaining Monsters were initially unconcerned, but they eventually became aware of him. They immediately attack him, but Sam has already used the shadow movement technique to escape.
After a while,
Sam has already used his power to prevent the monster in front of him from moving. Do not forget, he has that power as well, and he has already approached that monster when given the opportunity. He attacked the monster without wasting any time.
In the next second, the Monster's body shattered and fell to the ground.
'Sigh, they are very dangerous monsters. If I had been careless at the time, I would be dead.'
When he discovered those Monsters, he did not take any action and instead devised a perfect plan to attack them. But who could have predicted he would face a surprise attack.
Fortunately, he was quick enough to escape with the shadow movement technique.
He has already brought up the system screen to see how he has improved. Once again, his overall power has grown.
'I also need to concentrate on absorbing spiritual energy. Only then would I be able to advance to the next level. Sigh, it would be ideal if I could find a method for creating my clone.
With this, I would be able to concentrate on two things at once. On the other hand, I finally obtained the first resource that would be useful to me.
I never expected to encounter a green mantis. I was extremely fortunate to react quickly; otherwise, I would have been in serious danger.'
Sam exhaled with relief. He had already taken out a spirit potion and began walking forward.
He ignores the dead Monsters and instead moves toward the large tree in front of him. That tree is unusual in that it has the shape of a mantis, and there are five white apple-like fruits on it.
These fruits are known as Mantus. Consuming those fruits will provide two benefits. The first would be to improve your agility. The second would be giving you spiritual energy.
These fruits are full of spiritual energy. Simply by consuming them, you will receive spiritual energy.
More importantly, spiritual energy is pure and healthy for your body. It can also be used as medicine in some cases because pure spiritual energy can heal your body if you have a spiritual energy problem.
Many people damage or overload their spiritual energy system; in those cases, Mantus fruits would be extremely beneficial.
Naturally, Sam had no issue with that. However, by eating those fruits, he will gain a significant amount of spiritual energy, allowing him to quickly level up.
But it is not over just yet. There are numerous resources like this throughout that part of the danger zone.
After approaching the tree, Sam collected all three fruits. The remaining fruits were still unfit for human consumption. They will still need three or four days.
Sam did not have much time to spend there. He will concentrate on gathering more resources.
He moves away from the location and begins to look for other resources. Unfortunately, locating those resources would not be simple. So he can also look for Monsters that may be present near those resources.
After a while, Sam stands in front of an old cave. He intends to enter that location, but he needs to prepare himself for any potential danger.
Using the observation technique, he can already tell Monster is in that location. More importantly, some powerful monsters can be found there. So he had to be very careful.
