Chapter 48: Defeating Cabarro and Obtaining the Fossil of Creation Again

Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Defeating Cabarro and Obtaining the Fossil of Creation Again"Damn it!" Johnnie cursed angrily. He quickly killed a Skeleton General, picked up the two wooden boxes, and tried to escape from here. Buzz... At this moment, the Void Sword let out continuous humming sounds. It was the soul of the Void Sword. "Hmm?" He was a bit suspicious and asked, "Can you kill this Cabarro?" The Void Sword trembled slightly, as if responding to him. "Okay. Then let’s give it a try." He knew how powerful the soul of the Void Sword was. The powerful Evil Spirit summoned by Lane was easily devoured by the sword soul. Maybe this Cabarro wasn’t a match either. He turned around and directly charged at the oncoming Skeleton Generals. Whoosh... The Dragon Patterned Sword whistled as it circled around him, constantly stabbing at the Skeleton Generals. Boom! The attacks of the Void Sword were powerful and forceful. Even when facing the attacks of groups of Skeleton monsters, he was still at ease. [Killed a stage 2, level 10 Skeleton General, gained 8 experience points] The prompt message flashed. One Skeleton General after another was killed by him, and his experience points were slowly increasing again. Soon, the Skeleton Generals around him were all eliminated, and he was already close to the cave. A series of chilly gusts of wind howled. This cave was even colder and more eerie than the one in Novice Village No. 001. He quickly killed the two Skeleton Generals blocking the entrance of the cave, took a deep breath, and stepped into the cave. "So many corpses!" He could see everything inside the cave clearly. There were the corpses of monsters everywhere. Some of them had already rotted, emitting a foul stench. It was even more gloomy and terrifying here. Hoo-hoo... At the entrance of the cave, the Skeleton Generals roared continuously but didn’t dare to enter. Johnnie originally wanted to attract a Skeleton General to maintain a fighting state, but it seemed impossible now. He gripped the Void Sword tightly, took a deep breath, and walked deeper into the cave. Crack! The bones under his feet broke. There were dry bones and corpses all over the ground. Johnnie walked unhindered and soon reached the depths of the cave. "A werewolf!" He was a bit surprised. In the cave, a burly werewolf was sitting cross-legged. Its fur was mottled, and its face looked weathered. "Are you Cabarro?" He sized up this guy. He didn’t expect that Cabarro was actually a werewolf. [Cabarro: stage 7 Epic-level Necromancer, currently severely injured, cultivation level reduced to Stage 3, Level 10.] Johnnie saw the attributes of this guy. It was actually a stage 7 Epic-level boss. Even though it was severely injured, it was still a stage 3,level 10 boss. He was definitely no match for it. He couldn’t help but take a step back. After hesitating for a moment, he still didn’t run away. He believed in The Soul of the Void Sword. "An adventurer? Little guy, did you kill Barton?" Cabarro was a bit surprised. He picked up the staff in front of him and said coldly, "You dared to kill my man. You should stay here too." The staff was waved, directly tearing through the void. Roar... With two roars, two huge and ferocious Evil Spirits emerged from the void. With Johnnie’s improved strength, he could see the attributes of the Evil Spirits this time. [Evil Spirit: stage 4 Epic-level boss, formed by the Necromancer Cabarro by gathering vengeful souls, capable of devouring souls] Whoosh! The two Evil Spirits howled, lunging forward with their claws outstretched, instantly enveloping Johnnie’s figure. A bone-chilling cold entered his body. His soul trembled, and his life force was draining away. He once again felt the approach of death. Buzz! In this critical moment, the Void Sword Shock flew out of his hand and took the initiative to attack the two Evil Spirits. An even more evil and terrifying aura emerged. The two Evil Spirits trembled in fear. They hurriedly gave up on devouring Johnnie’s soul and tried to escape, but it was already too late. "Roar..." The terrified roars echoed, and the two powerful Evil Spirits were instantly devoured by the Void Sword. [Ding. The Void Sword has devoured the Evil Spirit, unlocking a new attribute special effect: Soul Absorption] [Soul Absorption: For each undead creature killed, 1 point of The Intensity of the Soul can be increased] The prompt message flashed. The Void Sword had actually unlocked another attribute, and it was even a special effect attribute. Equipment special effects only appeared on items of purple epic quality and above. "You, you actually devoured my Evil Spirit? Kid, who are you?" Cabarro exclaimed in surprise. He glared at Johnnie and then looked at the Void Sword in his hand. "What an evil aura!" He frowned. He was a Necromancer who had slaughtered countless living beings, but this Great Sword could actually make him feel afraid. "You’re actually an Evil Cultivator!" He reacted and stared at Johnnie. He couldn’t help but swallow hard. Evil Cultivators were beings even more evil and powerful than Necromancers. Necromancers had to act stealthily when sacrificing and refining the souls of the dead, while those Evil Cultivators, in order to enhance their strength, would often massacre a city or destroy a country. In front of those Evil Cultivators, he was as innocent as a child. Buzz! At this moment, the Void Sword Shock once again broke free from Johnnie’s control and attacked Cabarro. "Leave him alive. Don’t kill him!" He quickly spoke up to remind. He still had to find Princess Lisa of the Haldrem Empire, but this cave was empty and spacious, and it was obvious that she wasn’t here. Puff! Blood spattered. The Void Sword directly pierced through Cabarro’s chest, and black blood flowed out. However, it didn’t take this guy’s life. Johnnie let out a sigh of relief. Looking at the severely injured and dying Cabarro, he asked coldly, "Where is Princess Lisa of the Haldrem Empire?" "Cough!" Cabarro coughed up a mouthful of blood and was a bit surprised. "You actually know about Princess Lisa? Hehe, it seems you’re here to save her. But it’s a pity that you won’t be able to save that woman." "Hmm?" Johnnie asked coldly, "Tell me, where is she?" "Hmph, it doesn’t matter if I tell you." Cabarro swallowed a mouthful of blood, and his figure looked even weaker. "That woman has the purest soul I’ve ever seen. I’ve already offered her to Lord Pluto." "Pluto!" Johnnie frowned and exclaimed. He knew about this guy. A Demigod powerhouse with terrifying strength, the first god to invade Earth in the last life. More than a dozen Demigod players from Earth had fought to the death and only managed to severely wound that guy. He didn’t expect that Princess Lisa had fallen into Pluto’s hands. It seemed that this was really a bit troublesome. "Kid, I’m Pluto’s messenger on the Universe Continent. If you dare to go against a god, you’re surely going to die!" Cabarro roared and took out a piece of jade, ready to swallow it. Fossil of Creation! Johnnie noticed his action. He waved the Void Sword and directly cut off his arm, and then ended his life with a single strike of the sword. [Killed Cabarro at stage 3, level 10, gained 2880 experience points, Reputation +50, The Intensity of the Soul +1] [Your level has been upgraded to stage 2, level 3. Each of the four major basic attributes has increased by 4 points. You have obtained 5 free attribute points.] The prompt message flashed. He had been upgraded to stage 2, level 3, and his strength had been slightly improved again. And what he was most looking forward to was the items dropped by Cabarro. "He actually had a Fossil of Creation in his hand too?" He pried open Cabarro’s severed palm and took out a small black piece of jade. "What an unexpected gain!" He was delighted in his heart. He decided not to let Crysic and the other women use this Fossil of Creation for now. After he upgraded to the stage 3 and his strength increased, he would fuse the attributes again. He put away the Fossil of Creation and then looked at the other items dropped by Cabarro. There was a scroll and a gray stone. [Path Map of The Land of Nothingness: Records the path to The Land of Nothingness. It is said that it is the residence of the gods, and those at stage 7 can go there] [Soul - Capturing Stone: A purple epic item that can devour the souls of the dead] The Path Map of The Land of Nothingness? Johnnie looked at the scroll in his hand and frowned in thought. That Pluto should be in The Land of Nothingness. In this life, perhaps he could slay a god right on the Universe Continent. However, to enter The Land of Nothingness, he needed at least the strength of the stage 7. He was still too weak now. And even if he reached the stage 7, he didn’t have the strength to slay a Demigod. He probably needed to upgrade to the stage 9 or become a Demigod to go there. He put away the scroll and then looked at that gray stone. The Soul - Capturing Stone, which could devour the souls of the dead, didn’t have much use for him. He searched again to make sure there was nothing left in the cave before leaving. Although he didn’t complete that hidden mission of rescuing Princess Lisa by killing Cabarro, he already knew that she was in Pluto’s hands. And this time wasn’t without gain. He got another Fossil of Creation. This Cabarro claimed to be Pluto’s messenger. Could it be that other messengers also had a Fossil of Creation in their hands? He guessed that there must be more than one god’s messenger on the Universe Continent. The Fossil of Creation was important, and he was eager to get more of it. Unfortunately, he didn’t know where the other god’s messengers were. Hoo-hoo... As he left the cave, there were continuous roars, and the surrounding Skeleton Generals swarmed up again. "Hmph, I can just use you to level up." He looked excited. He wasn’t afraid of these guys at all. He waved the Void Sword, and the Dragon Patterned Sword appeared and disappeared unpredictably, mercilessly slaughtering these creatures. [Killed stage 2, level 10 Skeleton General, gained 7 experience points, The Intensity of the Soul +1] The prompt message flashed. These Skeleton Generals were also Undead monsters, and killing them with the Void Sword could increase The Intensity of the Soul. He carefully felt it for a while but didn’t notice any changes in his body. He didn’t know what the The Intensity of the Soul was for, and there was no specific description of its attributes either. Ding! At this moment, his private chat rang. It was Crysic. Crysic: "Johnnie, log off and come to have a meal and rest!" Only then did he notice the time. A whole day had actually passed. Johnnie: "Right away." He replied and quickly dealt with the remaining Skeleton Generals and cleaned up the battlefield. He looked at the equipment scattered all over the ground and felt a bit of a headache. It seemed that he needed to find some people to help him clean up the battlefield. He thought of Blood Bull. The four members of their team had already left the Novice Village. Crysic had also been upgraded to stage 1, level 9 and would soon be able to leave the Novice Village too. He quickly picked up the equipment and handed it to Blood Bull, and then logged off. "Work is work, not life. You’ve been in the laboratory for a whole day. Don’t you know how to take a break and have a meal?" As soon as Johnnie logged off, he heard Crysic scolding Lina outside. He couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty. He had promised Crysic to have meals and rest on time, but he had never actually done so. "Sister, I know. You guys eat first. I’ll be done soon. I’m at a crucial moment now." Lina said coquettishly. "No way. Have a meal. There’s no room for negotiation!" She dragged Lina out of the laboratory and happened to bump into Johnnie. "Johnnie, and you too. You must rest tonight." She shifted her target and scolded. Lina hid behind her and playfully stuck out her tongue at Johnnie. "Got it. Let’s have a meal first." Johnnie was a bit speechless. Why hadn’t he noticed before that Crysic was so talkative? ...
