The carapace bruteneck's head came off from its neck and it slumped to the ground, lifeless.
Tatehan sprinted forward, searching frantically until his hands closed around the glowing core. He gripped it tightly, but just as he turned to run back toward the spaceship, the familiar voice echoed in his head:
[Congratulations host, you have just killed a carapace bruteneck]
[Congratulations host, you have just taken a carapace bruteneck glowing stone, colour green]
Tatehan halted for a few seconds as he paused and took a better look at what he was holding.
Yup, it was a glowing green rock alright.
He resumed running, avoiding any path that might bring him face-to-face with more brutenecks. From the looks of it, they were the only creatures that occupied this region. Maybe if he ventured farther up, he'd find other monsters, ones stronger and deadlier than these.
