Lugh looked at the outer region marked on the leather map that clearly had traces of time on it.
He revealed a trace of surprise and sighed, “I didn’t expect that the region that I escaped to back then was actually only considered the outer region of the Forest of Despair. It was actually only at the boundary where the Imperial Court cleared out the source beasts that were threatening.”
“Just the source beasts at the boundary are already so difficult to deal with. Then wouldn’t the source beasts at the outer area of the Forest of Despair be even stronger?”
Lugh laughed bitterly. His heart became even more determined to become stronger. Recently, due to his obvious progress, his self-satisfaction had gradually calmed down. At this moment, Lugh had a new understanding of the Forest of Despair.
Walking on the main road, he occasionally saw a few groups of villagers walking out of the village and back to the village. Some of them were going to harvest herbs, while others were going to hunt source beasts to make a living. They were all from the same village… Lugh nodded in understanding in response to the villagers’ warm greetings.
“We can already see the forest from here. Come out, Big Mouth.” Lugh looked at the Forest of Despair that was formed by giant trees in the distance and immediately released his spirit spark to summon Big Mouth, because if they continued to move forward, they might encounter source beasts. Lugh had to be careful. After all, humans were different from source beasts. Humans were very weak.
Ever since the battle a week ago, Big Mouth had not fought well. After a week of training with a large amount of resources, Big Mouth’s fighting strength had improved significantly. It was a good opportunity for it to familiarize itself with his strength through this trial, as well as to increase its battle experience.
When he entered the border of the Forest of Despair, he did not encounter any attacks from source beasts. It was probably because the Imperial Court had sent troops to clear it out not too long ago. Lugh had no obstructions along the way and directly entered the outer area of the Forest of Despair.
After walking into the Forest of Despair, it was not long before Lugh found the first source beast he had encountered in the forest.
This source beast was a rat-type source beast. It had a white body that was almost one meter long, and its back was filled with dense sharp spikes. Its small nose was constantly sniffing the surrounding scents, making it seem harmless and even somewhat cute.
“A low-level commoner-level beast-type source beast, the Stinger Rat, has already reached level 1. This opponent is just right. Let’s warm up Big Mouth, which I haven’t seen for a long time.”
[Race]: Stinger Rat
[Type]: Stinger Rat
[Attribute]: Beast
[Innate Ability]: Stinger Skin
[Race Quality]: Low-Level Commoner-Class
As soon as Lugh entered the outer area, he saw a Rank 1 source beast. Although its level was higher than Big Mouth, its grade was still too low. It was a world of difference from a general-class Big Mouth. Big Mouth was enough to directly crush it across battle levels.
“Get rid of it!”
After receiving the order from its master, Big Mouth, which had long been unable to control its fighting spirit, immediately flew towards the Stinger Rat. In the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of the Stinger Rat. The sinister hook claws on its six legs were all opened, and the tip of its claws flashed with a sharp cold light.
Source beasts living in the Forest of Despair were very alert. The moment Lugh discovered the Stinger Rat, the Stinger Rat had already been on guard. Seeing Big Mouth launch a fierce attack, the Stinger Rat immediately launched a counterattack.
“Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!”
The Stinger Rat hunched its back, its body constantly shaking left and right. The sharp thorns on its body directly flew towards Big Mouth that was flying towards it. The Stinger Rat used the sharp thorns to attack the attacker.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
These tiny flying needles shot onto Big Mouth’s body, but were directly repelled by the hard insect armor, not even leaving a trace.
This was the powerful defense of the superior insect armor, the Thorn Beetle Armor. It was more than enough to block this kind of attack.
The Stinger Rat that used the sharp thorn attack had already lost the best opportunity to dodge. Big Mouth, who was not slow, directly covered the hook claw with Blood Qi. A few blood traces streaked past, and the poor defense of the Stinger Rat was completely unable to block it, it was directly torn into pieces.
The large success stage Bloody Claw did not stop when it passed through the Stinger Rat’s body, leaving several deep claw marks on the ground. The fallen leaves and pebbles on the ground were cut into pieces, and were sent flying from the ground.
The Stinger Rat was completely no match for Big Mouth, and Big Mouth did not even have the desire to dodge the Stinger Rat’s skill, ending its pitiful life with a single strike.
The difference in race quality was too great, even though Big Mouth was only at level 9, it was enough to contend against a rank one or five commoner-level source beast. This was the difference in race quality. This was the difference in potential.
This rank 1 Stinger Rat’s strength could not even compare to the Shadow Wolf that Big Mouth had fought against before. It was only the weakest existence at the periphery of the Forest of Despair. It could not achieve any effect of training.
After Stinger Rat let Big Mouth take out the beast attribute source crystals on its body, he continued to walk into the Forest of Despair.
