Weapon seller in the world of magic-Chapter 337 The Trial Of The Holy Beasts (Part-2)

Mark activated his Sage eyes without wasting any time in inspecting the details of the monster with the body of an ox, four horns with two protruding from the forehead and the remaining two protruding from the back of its head, human eyes, and pig ears.

*honk*

Looking at its prey, the beast let out a sound that is similar to a goose, although it was a bit too loud for a human. Mark was forced to close his ears for a second while staring at its details.

"Just a 7-circle monster, huh?" Mark felt more relieved upon seeing that his opponent is someone he can defeat without relying on external assistance.

However, the problem here is that he doesn't have much experience in close combat.

And the more time he spends here, the more worried he might get regarding the safety of his fiancée as he couldn't trust this invisible enemy to not keep them hostage.

Then, should he summon the missile defense system and bombard the opponent with missiles? This way, he could save ether energy.

But, is there a need to save it?

With the 'Ether Regeneration' passive skill, he can recover his ether energy at the rate of 1% every 1.7 seconds. That's only three minutes to recover all of his consumed ether points.

As Mark was contemplating on whether he should go for the quick route or use this opportunity to test his own power, the beast charged at the intruder like a bull. Its horns were glowing in scarlet energy, aiming to kill him in one shot.

Seeing that, Mark quickly activated the suit's flight ability and flew higher to dodge the incoming attack, followed by taking out a sniper battle rifle and pouring about 500 thousand ether particles into it (~49% ether energy).

As Mark then proceeded to set the power to 3 using the dial switch placed above the trigger, the beast put a brake on its legs and turned around. It raised its head to look at the enemy flying without any wings.

*Honk*

Letting out a snort, the beast unleashed a skill. Energy started to condense at the tips of its front horns.

Mark raised the rifle and aimed at the beast. With enhanced vision, Mark didn't bother to use the scope and directly clicked on the trigger.

*Swoosh*

A rank-3 energy bullet was released from the rifle and cut through the air like lightning and perfectly piercing the beast's right eye.

*Graaaa*

The beast roared in anger as the blood oozed from its eye. Maybe, it is because it isn't real or maybe, it is because Lord Yuqiang created it that way. Whatever the case, it wasn't showing any signs of feeling pain or trying to heal its eye injury. Instead, it resumed gathering the energy at its horns to complete the technique.

"So, it is a dumb one, eh?" Mark's confidence increased by its move and he clicked the trigger once again, aiming at its other eye.

The beast couldn't complete its technique and it lost its vision, although it doesn't pose any problem for Zhuhuai as the beast kings don't need the vision to sense the enemy. Its smelling capability is more than enough to locate its prey. ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

A giant energy ball was thrown at Mark, who in turn, faced it head-on and took the blow directly to test the suit's defense. Of course, the beast's 7-circle realm cultivation is the primary reason for him to take such a step.

As for its grade, according to the manuscript of Legendary Beast Tamer Xie Chen, which he received from his sister on the engagement ceremony day, the difference in the grade of beasts lies in their respective skill set.

If a king-grade defense appeared to be a lot stronger than the fierce-grade beast of the same realm, it's because of the passive skill of the former. But, at the same time, battle type also plays a major role here.

For example, if a king-grade beast is a defensive type, then, its normal defense and active defensive skill prowess might be far higher than a fierce-grade beast of the same realm. In such a case, their attacking prowess remains the same.

And if both are offensive types, then, their defensive prowess remains the same. As for the balanced type, the difference will be seen both in offense and defense but it won't be much higher when compared to the other two types.

Anyways, back to the present, Mark knew that an offensive type beast king of the 7-circle realm (advanced stage) cannot unleash an attack on a Supreme realm.

Hence, he was confident about taking it head-on.

And just like he expected, as the energy ball struck his suit, it dissipated right away without even pushing him away lightly much less hurting him.

"So, it doesn't have pain receptors but still can sense my presence, eh," Mark observed the beast from the air as it was conjuring another energy ball. "Hmm, either through the smell or through sensing of a life. That means I haven't done any proper damage."

It was then a sudden thought came to his mind and his facial expression hardened, "Sh*t… Song Yue was still out there. I cannot waste the time."

Mark suddenly realized that he doesn't have the time to toy with the opponent or test his suit. Not to mention, this might not be the only opponent he will face in the trial.

Mark slowly landed on the ground. As the beast turned his head to change its aim, he mumbled, "Gravity Dome, activate."

However, nothing happened.

"Ah, right. I forgot." Mark remembered that he doesn't have the system running in the background to automatically unleash the skill through voice activation.

Since he never mastered the skills in a traditional way like the other Spirit Warriors, Mark had to depend on manual activation (except for the bloodline skills). He opened the skills interface, which is still working despite the system's offline status.

He clicked on the Gravity Dome under the Active Skills section. And as the system is offline, there was no prompt message received by him and it directly activated right away, unleashing an invisible dome in a 100-meter radius.

Once the skill is launched, Mark's consciousness was connected with the dome and he could sense the unfamiliar yet familiar particles filled all around the place, possibly the gravitons.

It was a strange feeling. Mark somehow felt like he was looking at ether particles inside his body with an ability to control them.

While he was experiencing a new feeling, the beast completed its energy ball and threw it at him once again.

The result was the same as earlier. Mark was struck by the attack without receiving any damage but it surely helped him to return to reality.

Meanwhile, the beast felt frustrated and it unleashed another skill, increasing its size by several folds.

Placing his attention on the opponent, Mark then raised his free left arm. "Good that you have increased your size and weight. Now, I'll help you increase it even further. Gravity at maximum."

In an instant, an enormous pressure descended onto the beast, increasing its weight by 40 times the original as the gravitational force was increased within the dome.

The beast collapsed onto the ground, unable to bear it. And Mark calmly walked toward it.
