Chapter 47: 47. Leveling Up Area
After going through the ruined portal, Orion found himself standing in a similar area to where he had fought the first guardian.
There was a stage made up of square shaped tiles and a starry sky all around his eyes could see, enclosed in a transparent dome.
But if there was any difference between this place and the last one, then that would be the huge spherical ball floating in the air.
'Are there monsters inside?'
The massive spherical sphere appeared red in color, and Orion could see various types of monsters stuck together tightly in the space inside the sphere.
The monsters appeared as though they had been forcefully stuffed inside the huge spherical sphere like candies inside a bowl.
Most importantly, Orion could see them twitching and moving almost so slightly in the limited space they had.
'So, these are the monsters we have to fight.'
Looking at the tightly packed monsters in the red sphere, he was reminded of the limited time he had in this area.
'Only one hour..huh..let's get this started.'
Without wasting any time, Orion arrived just below the red sphere.
At that moment, the red sphere began to morph downward, opening a hole at the bottom, and with it, the monster at the bottom of the pack began to slowly separate itself from the pack and fall down.
The monster appeared to be a yellow bear type monster, but it had around six legs, three on each side, and a big bump behind his back like that of a camel.
It fell towards Orion at breakneck speed.
Seeing that, Orion quickly used his flying swords as they flew towards the falling monster.
The first sword flew straight at the stomach of the monster; however, Orion frowned as he saw this because he intended to strike its head, but because the monster was still in the air and its body rolled as it fell down, his sword shifted towards his stomach.
"Puch!"
Nevertheless, it pierced the stomach of the monster easily, causing a ghastly wound to appear in the place where the sword was stabbed, and blood continuously leaked through the wound, causing the yellow skin of the bear to turn red.
However, even though the blood spurted out from its belly, the wound wasn't that deep.
"Gghhhh!"
But that didn't stop the bear from screaming in pain, its hands moving towards his stomach, where the sword still embedded itself into the monster.
At that moment, his second sword struck, and this time, Orion's aim didn't falter.
As the yellow bear had his hands busy taking out the bloody sword stabbed in its belly, the second sword quietly but swiftly flew straight to its head and passed right through it without any obstacles, resulting in a big hole appearing in its forehead.
In the arena full of square-shaped white tiles, small spherical balls of various colors could be seen scattered around, along with red stains that dyed the white tiles deep crimson red.
A bit further off to the side, a circular portal shimmered with a brilliant blue light, casting a gentle blue glow over the surrounding area.
Amidst all of this, Orion stood looking at the huge red sphere above his head.
'Can't it send more monsters?'
He felt unsatisfied after knowing how many monsters he had killed this hour. If he didn't count wrong, then it would only be around thirty-five to forty at most, which could only fill half of one of his attributes.
'It seems if I want to fully upgrade one of my attributes to max level, then I will have to do it in the second round.'
Knowing better that he had one more chance to come here after he defeated the second guardian, Orion didn't dwell on it anymore and went on to collect and absorb all the core he had amassed.
A few minutes later, he absorbed all the cores, and now his status looked like this:
[Name - Orion Darkwood
Rank - Bronze
Talent - Copy Curse - 7%
Curse - Null Body, Electrostatic Disruption, Dimensional Dissonance, Velocity Burst, Sacrificial Renewal, Burdened Gravity, Frozen Torment, Detonating Flesh
Strength - 12
Stamina - 11
Agility - 60
Perception - 11
Constitution - 11
Mana - Nil (Due to the host's curse—Null Body, host isn't able to feel any form of mana. Please check your curse for more information.)
Skills - Nil (Due to the host's curse —Null Body, host isn't able to feel any form of mana. Therefore, the host is unable to use any skills. Please check your curse for more information.)]
Looking over his stats, Orion observed that the stat points in his agility attribute had increased to a whopping 60 points.
'It looked like I was right. Some cores indeed give two stat points instead of one.'
He had previously speculated that, but now again, seeing his agility attribute raised to 60 points made him sure that some cores indeed gave two stat points.
As for his talent, that had increased to 7% mastery; the credit went to the training he did the other day.
