YM778.TV Chapter 35 - Quinn & Lorain
"Aren, isn\'t it strange that we haven\'t encountered any beasts since killing those wolves? We\'ve already walked for an hour now."
Aren and Luna got out from the forest and arrived at normal land with less greenery.
"We were already at the edge of the forest when we killed those wolves, and there are no beasts roaming here. Hmmm...You see that hill range?" Aren said before he pointed at the hill range to their left side.
Luna looked at it and asked with doubt, "What about it?"
"Nothing. I am just saying that we should move in that direction. Because there\'s nothing in the other three directions except land, I can see the forest outline with my eyes, so we might just be getting back into the forest area. But that hill range appears different," Aren said with a thoughtful expression before he flew up while standing on his sword.
With high in the sky, he could observe more and confirmed, "Indeed, there\'s nothing except forest in other three directions after this empty land part ends."
Luna nodded, "I see, then let\'s move towards hill range."
Afterward, Luna and Aren started moving towards the hill range.
On the other hand, Lorain and Quinn also succeeded in their search.
They found two spirit stones, and right now, they were going inside a mountain cave that contained a big field of red berries.
"Auntie, there are four beasts, and they look powerful. But we should be able to handle them with the plan we decided," Quinn whispered as she and Lorain looked at three giant black-iron gorillas from the passage.
Lorain and nodded and whispered back, "Are you sure you want to go with that plan? Will you be able to bear it?"
Quinn\'s eyes were burning with the fire of resolve as she muttered, "I will bear anything to get strong. My path requires me to be fearless and bold. And after seeing that hellish scene outside, we have to get stronger faster, or we will have the same fate as them."
Hearing that, Lorain sighed before she also steeled her expression," Let\'s go."
After saying that, Lorain released red threads as all physical attributes of Quinn were increased by 30%.
-[Quinn]
-Health: [ 1550 ]
<Strenght: 25(+7)>
<Constitution: 24(+7)>
<Agility: 24(+7)>
Quinn felt her body getting stronger and tougher overall as she used <Leap> and jumped 7 meters ahead before directly landing among the Black Iron Gorillas and was surrounded by them.
*Roar...**Roar...**Roar...**Roar...*
The four beasts roared and threw their iron fist towards Quinn.
But before those fists could hit her, Quinn used <Unbounded Enchant> as her body glowed with a red aura, and she took a defensive stance by crossing her arms in front of her and dropping her head down.
The four powerful iron fists hit Quinn and...
*crack....*
"Nghhh...," Quinn felt cracks in her bone, but she endured the pain while gritting her teeth.
Naturally, she could endure this better because of the buff from red threads, but nonetheless, Quinn displayed exceptional endurance.
With her agility, she could easily dodge their attacks, but she wanted to try out <Unbound Enchant>, and that\'s why she took their hits head-on.
After those four attacks hit her, Quinn felt overwhelming physical strength filling up her body.
<Strength: 24(+7)(+30)>
-Health: 660/1550
"Haaaaaaaa!" Quinn shouted as she spread her hand out and punched the beast in front of her. The adrenaline rush made her ignore the pain as she moved without a hitch.
*Smack! Boom!*
The Black Iron Gorilla flew like a bullet with its internal organs turned into a mess and hit the cave\'s wall.
Dead.
[ An Iron Black Gorilla killed, 210 Exp gained. ]
[ An Iron Black Gorilla killed, 90 Exp gained. ]
Both Quinn and Lorain got exp from one kill.
Quinn didn\'t stop as she dodged the next attacks of the other three gorillas and rapidly finished them with one punch each.
[ You have reached level 2 in Brutus Zontheos Path. ]
[ 1 talent point gained. ]
[ You have reached level 2 in Animo Weaver Path. ]
[ 1 talent point gained. ]
Both of their paths leveled up, but...
After finishing them off, The adrenaline rush died down, and Quinn fell to the ground directly before tears filled her eyes, and a scream left her mouth due to pain filling her body.
After all, the Iron fists of those gorillas hit hard enough to make cracks on her powerful body that had 27 points in the constitution attribute.
Those gorillas were geared towards offense instead of defense, so their attack power was quite high.
Lorain rushed towards her and immediately fed her three red berries.
After a minute, Quinn slowly stood up and sat down as she took some deep breaths.
"Are you fine now, Quinn?" Lorain asked with a worried expression.
Quinn smiled and nodded, "I am fine. Anyway, I think both of our paths leveled up, so let\'s take a look at it first and use the talent point."
Lorain nodded as she looked at the two blinking grey orbs.
[ Animo Core+]: You will unlock a skill: Animo Brand and your core will be upgraded. Upgrade-> Anime Threads limit increased by 100.
[ Animo Witchcraft ]: You will be able to conjure new types of threads called Hex threads from your Animo core, and your affinity of Hex will increase to level 2. ( Unable to learn this talent as you lack soul power and Level 1 Hex power to 100%. )
----> Soul stat required at 50 points.
With no other choice, Lorain used one talent point on [ Anime Core+]
Right after that, stinging pain shot through her head for a few seconds as she got knowledge on how to use the new skill <Animo Brand> using her Animo threads.
On the other hand...
Quinn\'s case was different as she had only one grey bubble blinking. Thus, she had no choice but to use her talent point in that.
[ Indomitable Life Orb ]:- Forms a Life orb in your body which will contain all of your life force. After forming the life orb, you will lose ten attributes points of strength, agility, and constitution for three days before they return back to normal.
After three days, The Indomitable Life orb will start to show its work as from then on, all the damage to your body, such as breaking bones or cutting limbs, will not occur. You will feel the same pain, and your Health will also decrease, but those injuries will not reflect on your body but will reflect on the Life orb inside your body. Once your health reaches 0, your life orb will also be destroyed, and you will die.
But as long as you can endure the pain and be indomitable, you can fight till your last breath.
Quinn sucked in a sharp breath as she read the information about her talent.
With a resolute expression, She added one talent point into [ Indomitable Life Orb ]. Right after that, she started to feel weak as she lost ten attributes of Strength, Constitution, and Agility.
[ It is recommended that you form your spirit core as soon as possible. ]
At this time, Lorain also said, "Quinn, we should form our spirit core now since I got a notification that I should form it as soon as possible."
Quinn nodded as she also got the same notification and told Lorain about her condition.
"Auntie, I will be weakened for three days, but we shouldn\'t have a problem fighting with each other\'s support."
Lorain smiled as she patted Quinn\'s head and said, "Oh? But no worry, I got a powerful skill that will help us a lot in the future."
Quinn smiled and nodded, "Then I will be relying on you."
Afterward, both of them started to form their spirit core.
