Chapter 388: Hunting Black Dragon_Leveling Up Through Eating

Chapter 388: Hunting ck Dragon

 Minhyuk had received a buff from Ali’s subss ‘His Companion’. There was a ‘Cooldown Reset’ among the buffs that he had received,which meant that all of Minhyuk’s skills could be used again, immediately. After seeing him use his Sword of Absolute Death once, Vormon burst out inughter.

 “N… no…”

 “This goddamn f*cker!!!”

 “What the hell! This XXX game!!!”

 “Aaaah! I’ll make sure to shelve Athenae!!!”

 Vormon smiled gleefully at the voices of the people that were filled with despair. However, the corners of Minhyuk’s lips were curled up with a twinkle in his eyes. The sight made Vormon’s eyes widen in shock. But it was already toote.

 Minhyuk’s Sword of Absolute Death, which could immediately be used thanks to his ‘Save’ skill, had already been triggered. And the same was true for Beanie, who had already used his Predator’s Authority, a skill that he had just recently learned!

 (Predator’s Authority)

 Active Skill

 Level: Temporary MAX

 Penalty for Use: None

 Effects:

 ? Beanie can acquire and use most of your opponent’s debuff, attack, and magic skills through predation immediately. 

 ? The replicated skills would have no requirements nor limitations, and the replicated skills would continue to be avable for use. 

 ? Upon the predation and acquisition of the opponent’s skills and powers, Beanie’s attack would be equivalent to his opponent’s attack.

 ? The replicated skills will have a 24 hour cooldown time.

 In a way, the Predator’s Authority was quite simr to Predator’s Acquisition, but it was also quite different. First off, Beanie’s attack would match his opponent’s. It was a very surprising power. There was also the fact that the limit on the number of the amount of skills and powers that he could replicate had disappeared. Of course this was probably because of the temporary MAX in the skill’s level.

 “Sword of Absolute Death.”

 Minhyuk and Beanie triggered the same skill at the same time on both sides of Vormon, once again.

 Shwaaaaaaaaaaa—

 A huge sword light with 100% chance of sessful hit rate struck Vormon’s body from both sides.

 “Keuaaaaaaaack!” Vormon screamed once again.

 All they needed to do was to devour Vormon’s remaining 7% HP and they would be able to kill him. The problem was that the 7% of his HP was several timesrger than a regr high ranker. Then, continuous strikes mmed into Vormon’s body following that first attack!

 [The attack has failed!]

 [The attack has failed!]

 […has failed!]

 Unfortunately, only the first attack had a 100% of having a sessful hit rate, although there were times when the Intangible Sword was triggered.

 [Intangible Sword.]

 [Your sword strike has ignored all of the enemy’s defenses.]

 [Critical Strike!]

 Beanie and Minhyuk both brandished their swords as hard as they could and sent hundreds of sword strikes strongly towards Vormon.

 [Will they be able to do it?]

 [Right now, there are only 30 seconds left.]

 [Food God Minhyuk is the only one that can stop Vormon and his self destruction.]

 [Our ITV Broadcasting Station, America’s current best broadcasting station, has recorded a record breaking 54% in viewership ratings for the first time in history. More than half of our poption is watching this!]

 [My hands are sweating. He will receive the highest honor if he seeds and he will receive the greatest frustration if he fails.]

 Their swords struck the gemstone that surrounded Vormon’s body.

 nk, nk, nk, nk, nk, nk!

 [The attack has failed.]

 [The attack has failed.]

 [The attack has failed.]

 [Intangible Sword.]

 [Your sword strike has ignored all of the enemy’s defenses.]

 [The attack has failed.]

 [The attack has failed.]

 [The attack has failed.]

 [Intangible Sword.]

 [Your sword strike has ignored all of the enemy’s defenses.]

 [The attack has failed.]

 [The attack has failed.]

 [Intangible Sword.]

 [Your sword strike has ignored all of the enemy’s defenses.]

 With every strike of the sword light, an explosion would ur on the gemstone following the effects of the skill.

 Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

 “Keuaaaaaaaaaack!”

 There was only 1% of Vormon’s HP left now. They were also in thest few seconds of a very desperate situation.

 [There are only three seconds left before Vormon self-destructs.]

 ng, ng, ng, ng, ng—

 They continuously sent sword strikes on the gemstone, but the problem was that the attacks still continued to fail. The Intangible Sword skill only had a 7~12% chance of ignoring the opponent’s defense. In other words, only one out of ten attacks could have the possibility of triggering the Intangible Sword. And then…

 [There are only two seconds left before Vormon self-destructs.]

 [There’s only one second left before Vormon self-destructs.]

 [Vormon is self-destructing…]

 All of the viewers watching the scene had distorted expressions on their faces. The same was true for the yers present in the Continent Cloud.

 At that very same moment, a miraculous notification rang faster than the end of the notification announcing Vormon’s self-destruction.

 [Lightning]

 [You have a 5% chance of triggering 2~4 consecutive lightning strikes.]

 [4 strikes.]

 Bang, bang, bang, bang!

 The lightning struck down swiftly which resulted in theplete exhaustion of Vormon’s HP!

 [You have sessfully stopped Vormon’s self-destruction.]

 Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack—

 ng!

 Fine cracks, akin to that of a spider-web, spread out in the gemstone that surrounded Vormon’s body. It spread widely until the gemstone was covered entirely in cracks, before it broke into pieces. Then, Vormon crashed down on the ground.

 Finally, Vormon had died.

 Then, the notifications rang one after the other.

 [You have sessfully hunted ck Dragon Vormon.]

 [ck Dragon Vormon’s hunt will be shared and divided among all of the participating yers depending on their contributions.]

 [You have gained 333,306,314 EXP.]

 [Due to the Marrow Bone’s Power, a 3x EXP buff has been applied.]

 [You have gained an additional 999,918,942 EXP.]

 [The one that Ali chose as hispanion will receive a 1.5x EXP buff.]

 [You have gained an additional 166,653,157 EXP.]

 [You have leveled up.]

 [You have leveled up.]

 [You have leveled up.]

 [You have leveled up.]

 […leveled up.]

 Minhyuk, who was still around thete Level 400s, jumped 30 levels with this level up alone. His level had surpassed the 500 threshold, finally reaching Level 511 in a single go.

 The notifications still kept oning.

 [You have acquired the Title: Dragon yer.]

 [You have acquired 9,411 tinum.]

 [You have acquired 8kg of ck Dragon Vormon’s scales.]

 [You have acquired the Staff of Despair.]

 [You have acquired 3kg of ck Dragon’s Heaven’s Boneless Chicken that he enjoyed eating the most.]

 [You have acquired 32 pieces of Vormon’s Weapon Reinforcement Stone.]

 [You have acquired 45 pieces of Vormon’s Defense Reinforcement Stone.]

 [You have acquired ck Dragon Vormon’s Magic Book.]

 [You have acquired the map to ck Dragon Vormon’s ‘Lair’.]

 Minhyuk could not help but feel thrilled. The amount of EXP that he had gained during this hunt had exceeded one billion. There was also 9,411 tinum. The tinum that he acquired was already worth around 50 billion in cash.

 And there were also the valuable artifacts!

 But what made Minhyuk feel most excited was acquiring the Heaven’s Boneless Chicken that ck Dragon Vormon enjoyed eating the most.

 ‘Kghhhk, spicy stir-fried chicken…! Kyaaa!’

 Minhyuk was ted. He knew the rewards did not end there. The reason was because he had acquired the ‘Map to ck Dragon Vormon’s Lair’. Then, additional notifications rang once again.

 [The Continent Cloud Event has ended.]

 [The yer’s score that will be reflected will be measured based on the yer’s contribution, the number of bases acquired, and the total poption.]

 [The yers from Asgan Continent have imed victory.]

 [All yers from Asgan Continent will receive a 40% EXP buff and a 10% increase in all stats for two weeks.]

 [The gold that the yers will receive will be based on the contributions of the yers inside the Continent Cloud. The yers of Asgan Continent will receive thrice the amount of gold that the yers of Cairon Continent will receive.]

 [The Continent Cloud will now allow the Cairon and Asgan Continents to engage freely in diplomatic discussions.]

 [The Continent Cloud is now reformed and turned into a new continent named ‘Apocalypto’.]

 [Both continents have to resolve their misunderstandings through diplomatic discussions.]

 Fall—

 “It’s over…”

 “We did it!!!”

 “Waaaaaaaaaah!!!”

 Cheers erupted loudly in the area. The yers of Asgan Continent were particrly delighted, as they raised their swords up high in the sky. They had worked hard for this victory and had finally won against one of Athenae’s powerhouses, China.

 [That’s very surprising. Asgan Continent has triumphed over Cairon Continent.]

 [We can confidently say that some of their yers had yed a big role during the process.]

 [The cheers of the yers from Asgan Continent, right now, are loud enough to cause the people watching to quiver in excitement.]

 [The steps that they decided to take have also made my heart tremble and shudder in thrill.]

 [To all the yers of Asgan and Cairon Continents, thank you for all of your hard work.]

 The Continent Cloud Episode had finally beenpleted. However, it was still notpletely over. Alicia looked at Minhyuk from afar with her hands clenched tightly into a fist.

 ‘If it’s you, then…’

 Then, she began to move.

 ***

 Crazy Tyrant Akhan was the powerful man that brought ck Dragon Vormon into a frenzied state. There were rumors publicized about him, that no NPC or yer could touch him. The reason why he was called a ‘Tyrant’ was because of his summoning techniques. He was an unofficial ranker with a significant number of named monsters under his rule.

 Akhan was currently leaning on his sofa and watching the cheering yers of Asgan Continents through his TV Screen.

 “That’s a bit unexpected, huh?”

 What Akhan wanted was for Vormon to go on a rampage and bring both the Asgan and Cairon Continents to ruins. He had deemed this to be feasible with ck Dragon Vormon’s power. This was because he was confident that there were no Korean or Chinese yers that could exert more power than the Summit Five. However, yer Minhyuk, who was now being shown in a close-up view on his screen, had aplished the impossible.

 “Ha~ But, I’m sure I’ve made the Athenae operators eat some shit for a bit.”

 Crazy Tyrant Akhan only wanted to do one thing, and that was to watch the copse of Athenae. He had a deeply rooted resentment against Joy Co. Ltd.

 Akhan looked at the screen coldly as he waited. Right now, the yers of the Cairon Continent had suffered greatly from their defeat. This was all because of the sudden appearance of ‘ck Dragon Vormon’, so they would most likely protest. After all, that was how human beings usually were. They would always try to catch their opponent’s weakness and somehow try to gain some benefits of their own. Looking at the grim expressions of the yers from Cairon Continent made the smile on Akhan’s face deepen. But then…

 [p, p, p, p, p.]

 The sound of pping was weak, but it still rang loudly through the TV screen. The screen was showing the figures of the remaining yers from Cairon Continent. And with the high rankers’ example, the others also started to apud until it gradually spread in the entire Continent Cloud.

 [p, p, p, p, p, p!]

 [That was a good fight! Asgan Continent! You have really strong people among you!]

 [You guys are amazing!!!]

 To be honest, anyone could tell that this battle was an uphill battle for the yers of Asgan Continent. With their apuse, the yers of Asgan Continent also pped their hands as they cheered and greeted each other.

 [You’ve worked hard.]

 [Isn’t that person over there really strong?]

 [Hahahahaha. Eyy. That person over there is stronger, you know!]

 [If I go to Cairon Continentter, will you treat me to something delicious?!]

 [Oooh! Of course!!!]

 [Hahahahaha!]

 Akhan’s face turned horribly ugly when he realized that the scene that he wanted to happen did not happen. And in their conversations, there was also a name that kept popping up.

 ‘Food God.’

 He was an existence that might have possibly surpassed the Summit Five. However, he found itughable when he heard the words that they had referred to him as.

 ‘King?’

 It was absolutely ridiculous that he was about tough. But before he could do so, something unexpected happened. A silver-haired woman walked slowly until she reached Minhyuk. The woman then knelt down on one knee and showed her respect.

 [Wh… what’s this?!]

 [This is very shocking! Ellie, the empress of Eivelis Empire knelt down and showed courtesy to a yer!!!]

 Then, Ellie smiled gently as she looked up at Minhyuk and said,

 [To the man that will be my king, I, Ellie of the Eivelis Empire, feel great honor and glory from fighting alongside you.]

 “…!”

 Akhan jumped up from his seat in shock. Ellie had acknowledged the fact that Minhyuk would be a king. In other words, Ellie would help him be a king!

 “Ha, haha!” Akhan burst out inughter. However, that alone did not mean that he would be king. Besides, the number of the members of the Let’s Eat Sect Guild that he had seen earlier were very small. Their help did not necessarily mean that he would be king that easily.

 But then, as if to make him feel more horrible, another surprising thing happened. A beauty that wasparable to Ellie walked forward, her sword engraved with a lightning bolt. This woman was Alicia, and she walked forward before kneeling down on one knee just a step behind Ellie. Then, the survivors of the Artheon Guild followed right behind her.

 [To the one who will be our King, Artheon Guild’s master, Alicia, requests to join you and work under your banner.]

 It did not end there. Masked assassins lined up next to them and knelt on one knee at the same time.

 [To the one who will be our King, Light Assassin Guild’s master, Lucia requests to join you and work under your banner.]

 There were even Chinese high rankers that lined up next to them and knelt on one knee.

 [Although we came from different continents, we have seen how qualified you are to be King. Please ept us in your Let’s Eat Sect Guild!!!]

 There were around a hundred Cairon Continent yers that made this request. The Empress, the masters of a guild, and even their enemies had dered their heartfelt words and sincerity. Akhan’s pupils shook at the scene.
