Chapter 89 Bull Beast Uncommon Category

Seeing a Beast that has a very high attribute for its level, made me realize how dangerous a Beast really is. Without lingering, I activated my Slash + Moonlight Slash to finish him off.

Even though right now I can't feel the difference between the casting time of 2 seconds and 1.8 seconds. I guess I'll be able to feel it when my casting time accelerates, once I feel that the energy accumulated in the Moonlight Slash is already available to me.

I swung my sword at the Bull Beast and sent a silver half-moon attack towards it.

"Swosh!"

I realized there was a difference in my vision this time because I could see the damage I was dealing from attacking the Beast. Previously I had never seen the damage I did from my attacks against my enemies, I could only see when I took damage.

I also saw information that my attack was 4 times greater than the Bull Beast's defense and caused my attack damage to be 10 times. It seems that apart from being able to tell the status of something, I can also tell how much damage I take from hitting something. No wonder this skill is included in the skills that must be learned by a Warrior, there are so many uses for this skill.

Knowing the other uses for this skill made me very lucky to be able to learn it for free at the academy. I also took the Beast Core on the bull beast and absorbed its soul to increase my potential, then continued my hunt today.

After hunting for about 2 hours until it was already noon, I managed to hunt another 5 Bull Beasts and 3 Goat Beasts. That made me gain a total of 9 Cores today, and I decided to head back to the academy since it was time for lunch.

On my way back, I saw a Bull Beast that was bigger than the Bull Beast I had fought before. It seems this is not a Bull Beast in the Normal category, but Uncommon. I immediately used my Analysis Eyes to confirm the strength of the Bull Beast in front of me.

Ding.

Name: Bull

Class: Beast Level 1 (Uncommon).

Level: 82

HP: 1690/1690

Energy: 830/830

Str: 59

Agi: 34

Vit: 107

Total Attribute: 200

"Oh damn!" Seeing his total attribute being higher than mine really surprised me, and made me worry. Because this Beast has a very different strength from the Bull Beast that I fought before. Not only that, the Vit even exceeds 100.

I don't know what will happen when one of your Attributes exceeds one hundred, but I have a feeling it will be something a bit different. Unfortunately, the Beast noticed my presence and started to activate its Aura, and ran toward me.

"Moo!"

Luckily this Bull Beast didn't have fast enough speed to chase me, so I was able to get away from it. While running away from him, and every cooldown of my skills has ended, I attack him using Slash + Moonlight Slash. Having ranged attacks is especially advantageous when you don't want to risk fighting your opponent at close range.

Looks like my attack damage with skills is still much higher than his defense, so the attacks I launch at him can still deal considerable damage in one hit. Even though it can't make me finish him with one hit, but this is enough because I only need 4 attacks to finish him off.

"Moonlight Slash!"

<-502>

My second strike seemed to have dealt a very heavy wound to it and made the Beast run slower than before. It can be seen that where my attack hit it, there was a fairly large wound, and there was blood flowing from the wound.

"Moonlight Slash!"

<-502>

My third strike left it on the ground unable to stand up any longer, due to the injuries my attack had caused. But I still didn't dare to approach it and kept waiting for the Cooldown of my Moonlight Slash to finish. Then attack it again.

"Moonlight Slash!"

<-502>

Finally, I was able to kill my first Uncommon category Beast, the Battle Exp I got was twice as big as killing a Normal category Beast. Since I got the notification that the beast had died, I now dared to approach it at this time to take the beast's core.

Don't forget to absorb the beast's soul. I thought there would be a difference when absorbing souls in the Beast Uncommon category and the Beast Normal category. Apparently not, I still get 1 potential after sucking its soul.

It seems that now I am very strong for the Warrior Uncommon category because I can beat the Beast Uncommon category easily without getting hurt at all. Even though the Beast has a higher attribute than me, it's all because of the skills I have that my attacks can be that strong.

Of course, another important factor is that I have a faster speed than the Beast. When the Beast can't approach me, I can easily attack it from a distance. Looks like I have to be careful if I meet a speed-focused beast like the Rabbit Beast.

The main reason I was able to defeat it was that I could use skills and the Beast didn't, so I could break through its defenses easily. That means the Beast will start to be very difficult to fight when they can also use skills. For now, I have never seen a Beast that can use its skills, so I have to be careful.

It's time to see the information of this Beast Core Uncommon category 'Analysis Eyes'

Absorbing this Beast Core will grant me 2 additional attributes apparently, as expected of a Beast of the Uncommon category. Besides that, the energy recovery has also doubled to 600, Core Beast Normal category is only 300 energy recovery.

But I have never heard that there would be a Beast Uncommon category this close to the academy because otherwise the ordinary academy students would find it very difficult to deal with a Beast like that and might lose their lives.

Looks like I'll have to tell the others about this so they can be extra careful. Then I ran towards the academy to end my hunt for the day and have lunch.

After running for about 30 minutes and not meeting the Beast again, I arrived in front of the academy gate. I informed the gatekeeper that there was a Beast of the Uncommon category appearing not far from the academy.

Hearing my report, they seemed normal and it wasn't uncommon around the academy. Then they told me the reason why so many academy students die every year is because of the appearance of an Uncommon category Beast near the academy, there was even an Elite category Beast appearing.

I asked them what the academy is doing to prevent that from happening. They replied "This area is the territory of the beasts, so we won't be able to prevent them from appearing where and when. So it will be the job of the disciples themselves to survive."

It seemed the academy didn't mind that because for them it included training the students here to survive when they graduated from here. They would explore a forest that was even more dangerous than here. After I heard their explanation, I headed back toward the dormitory for lunch.

Arriving at the cafeteria I was surprised because no one was here. Then I just remembered that the chef in the cafeteria will move to the canteen in the school building if there are class hours at school. I immediately headed to the school canteen for lunch there and met my other friends.
