Level 4 Bronze rank and Level 5 Bronze rank were completely two different concepts. Within every small level, one's speed and strength were set. Upon levelling up, one would experience a significant increase in power.
Even under the enhancement of Overdrive, a level 5 bronze rank was not the Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord's opponent. With just a few wind blades, Maxwell couldn't even get close to the Wolf Lord's body.
After levelling up, the aura on his body had clearly changed. The eyes of the Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord changed as it unconsciously took a step back. Maxwell's current aura caused him to experience a slight trace of fear.
Maxwell glared in anger as he pointed at the Wolf Lord and cursed: "Pup! You dared to ridicule this heir? Let's see you ridicule me some more now!" One step at a time, Maxwell walked forward as he said that, while the Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord started taking steps backwards.
"Howooo..." Suddenly, a Fiery Scarlet Wolf, besides the Wolf Lord, pounced out, attempting to take a bite at Maxwell's neck.
His palm like a knife, Maxwell roared out and hacked down: "Bam!" A palm attack had cut off its head. The Fiery Scarlet Wolf didn't even have time to react and had already died. Instant kill with a palm!
Maxwell was secretly overjoyed, "The strength of a Level 4 Bronze rank feels like double that of a Level 4 Bronze rank. A simple palm attack could instantly kill a below bronze spawned beast."
Level Up! He had to level up more quickly. This was exactly like a video game; the higher the level, the stronger the character. Gregory wasn't going to let him off, and neither will the Gillette Household. And Maxwell would also not let any of them off!
Maxwell's eyes tensed up as he didn't want to waste any more time. He then activated his divine technique: "Overdrive!"
A buzzing noise came from his body, and the powerful Overdrive energy exploded forth. Ripples of power visible to the naked eye could be seen. Strength had been doubled, speed had also been doubled!
At this moment, Maxwell was like a bullet that had just burst out with a whoosh, directly charging towards the Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord, who kept on retreating. All the other Fiery Scarlet Wolves acted like they didn't care about their own lives as they all rushed forth to protect their Wolf Lord.
Maxwell wasn't going to refuse this and would happily take everything offered to him. The Dragon Fire Palm Attack was continuously displayed, and his proficiency rate had increased significantly. Under the strikes of his heavy fist, a bloody path was opened up before him. His body had been clawed by the wolves a few times, yet the searing pain made him even more excited.
"Crackle!"
"Congratulations to Player Maxwell Gillette for killing a Fiery Scarlet Wolf."
"Reward: 200 XP, 20 mana."
"Crackle!"
"Congratulations to Player Maxwell Gillette for killing a Fiery Scarlet Wolf."
"Reward: 200 XP, 20 mana."
The system notification rang out continuously as if it were the height of a symphony orchestra. The tide of sounds would make any person's blood boil!
There were fewer and fewer Fiery Scarlet Wolves now, and the Wolf Lord's original slight fear had gradually turned to a shaking fear. With a low growl, its speed of retreat began to increase. Maxwell was pressing forward with his stride. He didn't even have time to cut off the heads of all those Fiery Scarlet Wolf corpses behind him. This was considered a huge number of points!
The Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord gave a series of low growls. Once the Fiery Scarlet Wolf was killed by Maxwell's hand, the Wolf Lord immediately turned around and began to flee quickly.
"Running away so soon?" Maxwell coldly sneered, "Let's see how far you can go?" He stepped out and quickly chased after it.
Thus, a human and a beast were now shuttling through the trees of the forest. One can't say the Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord was slow because in just a few seconds, it had already dashed over 100 meters. This was because it cultivated a wind-type martial technique, which allowed it to borrow its power.
Spawned beasts being able to cultivate or comprehend martial techniques was an innate ability born of nature.
Wind, rain, thunder, lightning, gold, wood, water, fire, or earth were all attributes of nature. Everyone was an extremely powerful existence. But since the level of the Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord was too low, he couldn't display its power to its maximum potential.
But even given that, trying to catch up to it already took Maxwell a lot of effort. If it weren't for the enhancement of Overdrive, he wouldn't be able to get near it at all.
An above bronze rank demonic beast was actually much stronger than a Level 4 bronze rank. If it weren't for him having the Overdrive ability of doubling his strength, speed and other attributes, Maxwell wouldn't be its opponent at all.
This was the benefit and power of a martial technique!
"Run, I want to see where you can run to?"
He was the first to be ridiculed, so now it was Maxwell's turn to ridicule the Wolf Lord back.
The Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord didn't dare turn around and just kept running towards the depths of the forest. Unknowingly, Maxwell had already been chasing the Wolf Lord to the borders of the hunting grounds. If they continued going, they would reach the depths of Eden, where Below Silver ranked spawned beasts come out at any time.
Maxwell didn't care about this because, since he met a boss, what reason was there not to kill it? The Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord wasn't some ultimate boss, yet it was still considered a mini-boss. It might even drop some good equipment, or at least, Maxwell could attain its blood mana. He would then be one step closer to the 10,000 Titan Technique.
The atmosphere of the forest had started to become strange. There were no spawned beasts around, and the complete silence was rather terrifying. The Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord was focused on running away and didn't notice this.
"It wants to get out of the entrance competition area." Maxwell didn't dare to enter the depths of Eden. He then noticed a small hill in the blurry distance and said to himself, "This shall be your burial ground."
Immediately after, Maxwell once again activated his Divine Technique, "Overdrive!"
His mana level decreased by 300 points, and his speed was increased. He was currently only about 50 – 60 Meters from the Wolf Lord.
The Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord shook in fear a bit as it could sense that Maxwell's body had been enhanced. With a powerful pounce of its hind legs, it leapt up to a branch and then started leaping from tree to tree.
At this time, Maxwell had chased past the entrance competition area and entered the depths of Eden. They were almost at the top of a small hill.
Maxwell started getting anxious!
"Fwoosh!" Just when the Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord arrived at the area of the small hill, a sudden gust of wind blew by. The small hill miraculously stood up and became bigger and taller and...
"Damn... That's not a hill, it's a living spawned beast!"
In an instant, Maxwell didn't even bother thinking and immediately turned around to escape as he almost shit his pants. He happened to glance behind him and saw a large spawned beast swallow the Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord in one gulp before hearing a swallowing noise. Maxwell then sighed to himself, "And, there goes my mini boss."
At the same time Maxwell turned around, a pair of eyes the size of lava lamps also stared back at him. Like a tidal wave, he felt something crash into his state of mind. The feeling was extremely uncomfortable, like he was being crushed alive.
But, it was also this glance that the black circle below the spawned beast caught Maxwell's attention!
A boss! A powerful Lord boss! It was definitely a super-powerful boss that would explode with riches! Maxwell heavily swallowed back down his saliva, "It'll definitely have good loot and might even have a beast core..."
For spawned beasts to have a beast core.
Maxwell's state of mind was under pressure, yet he still couldn't contain his excitement.
Being excited was one thing, while Maxwell wasn't an idiot. When a Level 4 Bronze rank meets a spawned beast of that calibre, all they can do is run. Daring to stay half a second more, and one will end up just like the Fiery Scarlet Wolf Lord.
Maxwell ran like his life depended on it while Overdrive continued being released. He ran with all his strength for half an hour before he glanced behind him and finally stopped. While gasping for air, "And I almost died of fright!"
As he was still gasping for air, his face paled again upon recalling the previous scene. That spawned beast was too great; it was simply a Lord Level existence.
However, when Maxwell was fleeing, the Castro Household Dukes' black figure flashed by and held his breath. He had hidden his aura while staring at the large spawned beast standing up. He then coldly smiled, "I never imagined that the kid Maxwell wasn't suppressed by the Raging Fire Bull pressure. He truly is lucky, but..."
Adel Castro smiled eerily, "Gillette Household, let me, Adel Castro, send you a surprise gift."
Immediately after jumping down, he started creeping towards the Raging Fire Bull. All of this was being witnessed by Malachi Gryphon as he watched Adel anger the Raging Fire Bull and draw it into the entrance competition area. Malachi narrowed his eyes and said to himself, "Adel is really too evil; this is basically destroying the roots of the Gillette Household!"
Not long after, the Raging Fire Bull ran all over the hunting grounds in a rampage.
"Boom!"
It roared out into the air, shaking the heavens. All the spawned beasts were lying on the belly, shaking in fear, while the nearby Gillette Household members had their state of mind split apart and shatter to their deaths.
The Raging Fire Bull stepped into the entrance competition area and the whole place turned deathly silent.
Danger! This was extreme danger!
