Words : 1931 Updated : Sep 12th, 2025

After the weird encounter with the bat skull monster, Phantasia began traveling in the direction where the undead beasts monsters came from.[You have slain Grey Fur Orangutan Barbarian.] [Level Up.] "Those damn monkeys!" – said Phantasia after fending off a group of the grey furred orangutans. (Okay. I didn't find a strong monsters, but instead a group of those orangutans.) (….) (Should I continue going in that direction?) S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. (If I continue heading there, I will enter the deeper territory of this place and who knows what I would encounter.) (I already encounter this group of bastards and they already roughed me up after just recovering.) – though Phantasia while taking out food from his inventory and eating it. (The zombie regeneration only gives small regeneration bonus over time, well it's still better than nothing. I also have normal passive regeneration, so I'm recovering somewhat.) (….) Phantasia opened his inventory and began inspecting it. Your journey continues with empire (I had secured a lot of interesting materials.) (I didn't discover any underground veins containing the necrotic elemental gems, since I didn't had option of digging in here without getting killed in the process.) (Still, I have a lot of interesting materials.) (Not only that, I managed to secure some interesting plants containing the necrotic energy. This is extremely interesting.) (Not only that, that necromancer teaching and knowledge is extremely valuable when it comes to the necrotic element and materials containing that kind of element. I can already see its application to my cyborg modifications.) (Still, I need to focus on securing even stronger stuff than things we have right now.) (The experiments are working and the undeads do get somewhat stronger. But it's still unsittable for the living being.) (The materials I'm managing to get are good for the experiment and everything and they are helping us reach our target.) (But for the final product we need some extremely strong stuff…. So, in the end I have to head to the deeper parts of this place.) "…." Phantasia looked around, trying to spot anybody or any traces of the living people in sight. (So far, I didn't saw any guards in "here", but what if they do come here?) – Phantasia got and began walking together with his monsters to the deeper parts of the undead monsters territory. (Honestly, I was thinking of using the chimeras.) (Especially the rabbit bear and "that" guy, since he was finally born.) (But what if the moment I use chimeras, the patrol gets here?) (I will have no choice to kill them and the dwarf will put two and two together after he is rescued and may end up losing trust in me.) (Well, I CAN kill few of them, since this is a high risk area where a lot of dangerous monsters roam and those bastards are spread out everywhere.) (But I cannot kill too many and that is a problem…... Fuck me.) (I should focus on not using-) "?!" While Phantasia was walking, he ended up stopping after noticing something he wasn't expecting to see. On the giant boulder, was a giant claws marks belonging to the beast. "…." (Okay…. I can already see boss fight coming.) (Is the thing that left that giant claws marks was the reason those bats run away?) (The question is…. What could have left it?) (Is it by any chance an upgraded version of the monsters living in here? It was quiet common patter in the hunting grounds where there is a boss version on drugs that has a normal monster version in the area.) (Orangutans?) (No. They use weapons and the magic.) (Bats also nope, since they literally don't have any fingers…. Well, they kind of do? With those 1 claw wings.) (So, like a giant mutate bat maybe? But I honestly don't think so.) (What else…. Cat-) "…." "Oh fuck off." (If that is that cat monster, then this is fucked up.) (That monster is strong in many different ways and has also stealth skill.) (What? Can the boss monster turn instead completely invisible or something? That would quiet too broken considering how strong already those cats are, even without the stealth skill.) (Not only that…. Just fuking look at those markings on that boulder for crying out loud.) (They are massive and there is also the fact that they are deep.) (Fuck me… I guess this is a hint at least that the beast possess high offensive power.) "…." (Wait…. Now that think about it, I haven't see a lot of undeads in this area?) (I only seen those orangutans, but no undeads? Not even necromancer orangutans?) (…. Interesting?) (Does undead beasts run away from it or something? But then why the necromancers are missing?) (….) (Is the beast hunting the undeads?) (It would somewhat explain the lack of-) "…." "Wait a second." [Phantasia] [Race: Undead Zombie – Subrace: Human] "…." (Em…. Does it also hunts players?) (….) (Those bats run away recently…. And I'm not seeing the beast right now…. Was the culprit just here?) "…." (Nah. I'm over reacting.) (If that beast was really hunting recently in this spot and was also targeting undeads, then it would have attacked me already, right?) (Besides its not like its hiding nearby and its waiting to attack me at any moment.) (For example, it could be hiding behind that giant boulder or maybe that cliff above-) Phantasia looked up and saw a pair of glowing red eyes on top of the cliff. "…." "Shit." The giant figure jumped down from the cliff and aimed at Phantasia, but he quickly moved away before the creature landed in the location where Phantasia was just standing in. "…." "Oh, fuck me." The giant figure turned out to be a beast. Specifically, a giant cat monster with pitch black fur and pure white bone armor sticking out from is body around its spine, claws, tail and head. The monsters resembles the dread hunter, but the monster size was at least two times bigger than already regular dread hunger who was big like lion. Not only that, the bones of the creatures were armed with sticking out hook blades and the bones alone were covering much more area and were also thicker, giving the monster way bigger defensive capability as well as offensive capability. [Dread Predator – Level 262] "…." (Oh…. It has quiet… High fuking level…. And it also seems that I was correct.) -Looking at me like a prey. Undead prey. -A giant beast monster that left the claw mark. -An upgraded version of the most annoying monster here. (A just fuking give it ability to fuking turn invisible! I fuking dare you!) The monster looked at the Phantasia with its blood thirsty red eyes before then rushing towards him. In response, Phantasia instantly detached his hammer fist and launched it at the monster, hitting it right in the face, but not stopping or slowing the monster down at all. "…." "Oh, you got to be fuking me." The monster rushed to Phantasia, forcing him to raise his arms in defense and use skill [Body Block] to block the monster claw. The attack hit Phantasia and he blocked it… Or so he though. "?!" The force of the monster attack was way more than he though and he ended up getting pushed quiet a bit and even his clothes were damaged, revealing the metallic arms that were hidden beneath and also showing that they were also damaged. (…Okay… First of all.) (WHAT.) (THE.) (FUCK?!) (the dead hunter is quiet nasty enemy with speed, attack and defense, but that thing have it all boosted how much?!) (I used the defensive skill and used my iron arms as shield, but it still did that much damage?!) (….) "Okay, fuck it." Phantasia swinged his right arm backwards, dragging the chain and also sending his fist back to him. It hit the best side while retracting, but it didn't bothered beast again and Phantasia then reattached his fist. After regaining his hand, the monster instantly pounced towards Phantasia, forcing him to run away in order not to get hit. After dodging the attack, Phantasia tried to run away again in order to gain distance, but the monster didn't let it slide and continue running towards Phantasia. Phantasia used the [Poison Smoke] skill to create a smoke screen before then moving away, but the monster somehow managed to instantly find Phantasia even though moved away from his previous position. However, the feral monster forgot about Phantasia monsters. The beasts attacked the monster and bit into it while the giant mantis swinged its blade at the monster, trying to slash it to pieces. "?!" However, the mantis realized that it blade did not sinked at all into the monster body since its bone armor was protecting it. But it did one thing. It provoked the beast and it ended up changing targets from Phantasia to the beast. And the mantis realized, that he may fucked up. The boss monster began attacking Phantasia beast while he himself was doing something behind the boss monster back. However, while that was happening, the mantis monster was straight up being one sidedly beaten up. The mantis swinged its blade, but this time not slashing but stabbing the monster in its exposed part. "…." ":/" – mantis. Mantis blades again did nothing, even when hitting the exposed part of the body. The boss monster rammed into the mantis with its head, stabbing it withs bone horns and then pushing mantis away with its blow. The mantis who got pushed back stabbed the ground with its blade arms in order not to lose balance, but it was very visible that it was hurt very badly from that blow. The boss monster rushed to finish off the mantis, but then out of nowhere the monster got drop kicked in the face from the side and this time sending flying and also sustaining finally some real damage. However, the monster claws made sure that the monster did not lost balance one bit and was not pushed very far and if anything, it was only pushed just few feets. But one thing was for sure. It was now pissed. The monster turned around and saw a giant bear rabbit chimera while the mantis monster was recalled. However, the rabbit monster was not alone at all and in fact, there were other chimera monsters right behind it. And among the monsters was Phantasia who was now wearing his "Doctor" equipment. "Fuck you. I'm going all out." (This guy is way too strong and we straight up just started.) (I'm going to be fuking honest right now. If that thing is that strong and it even has natural resistance like the normal version, then its cheating. Not only that it probably have stronger version of those resistances as well.) (And considering the fact that my hammer fist barely did anything, I don't really have no choice but to use chimeras or I will straight up get massacred by that bastard.) (And if anybody sees me by any chance, be it patrol or player, then I will have to get rid of them since I will have no choice.) "Murder him." The chimeras rushed towards the boss monster and now starting the real battle between the doctor and the dread predator.
