The Annihilator: Killer Of Gods-Chapter 250: Killing Calamity Mutants Like Crazy
Thud!
A head fell to the ground, and Karsha quickly grabbed the Core, brimming with pure fire energy. After killing his first Calamity Mutant and uncovering the secret of their Cores, he started hunting more of them.
Regardless of their Tier, a Calamity Mutant’s Core is unique compared to most monsters. According to the system, a Calamity Mutant can potentially ascend to become a World Boss once they reach Tier 9. Though it’s not a sure thing, there’s still a chance.
The process is incredibly tough and demanding. Once a monster becomes a Calamity Mutant, usually around Tier 7, its Core starts storing elemental energy.
This energy is crucial for advancing to the World Boss stage. However, the journey is so difficult that most monsters stop at the Terror Mutant stage.
Still, the Tier 8 stage is a pivotal point. It’s where a monster decides if it wants to pursue the World Boss class.
If a monster becomes a Calamity at Tier 7, ascending to Tier 8 is challenging. But once they hit Tier 8, their hunting skills improve dramatically, allowing them to take on stronger foes and level up to Tier 9, where, if lucky, they can become World Bosses.
Also if a monster ascends to Tier 8 as a Terror Mutant, they can’t become Calamity Mutants again unless they encounter something extraordinary, like the cores of a Calamity Mutant.
By absorbing those cores, their chances of advancing skyrocket. They can easily hunt stronger foes and ascend faster without much hindrance.
"I need more of these," Karsha muttered, his eyes burning with greed as he held another fire-type monster core. He had already killed his second Calamity Mutant, earning a total of 2,000,000 points. Only a madman like him would hunt Calamity Mutants as if it were some kind of game.
Karsha was fearless, and it was all because of his skills and techniques. They were several times more powerful than most people’s, so while his stats might pale in comparison to others, especially the core disciples, his skills and techniques far surpassed theirs.
While others were content hunting Tier 7 Terror Mutants, Karsha had moved on, setting his sights on Calamity Mutants as his targets.
Of course, some monsters are incredibly vicious. Even though Karsha can easily kill a Calamity Mutant now, encountering one of those will show him the real threat they pose.
The Dark Scale Earthen Lizards aren’t that powerful. Their skin is tough, but they’re much slower, making them easy prey for Karsha with his Sword Qi and Golden Aura. The strongest move he’s used so far is his Fire Beam skill, but that was only 15% of its total power.
ROAR!
A roar echoed from 2 kilometers away, and Karsha smiled. His pace quickened, and before long, he was 200 meters from the monster. Seeing the Tier 7 Calamity Mutant, Karsha grinned and dashed toward it, swords swinging in full force.
His swords flashed in the sunlight as he closed the distance. The Tier 7 Calamity Mutant roared again, its fiery eyes locking onto him. With a flick of his wrist, Karsha unleashed a wave of Sword Qi, slicing through the air with deadly precision.
The mutant lunged forward, its massive claws swiping at Karsha. He dodged effortlessly, his movements a blur. With a swift counterattack, he aimed for the creature’s vulnerable underbelly. His blade struck true, cutting deep and drawing a stream of dark, steaming blood.
The monster howled in pain, but Karsha was relentless. He channeled his Golden Aura, his two swords glowing with a fierce, radiant energy. With a powerful leap, he launched himself into the air, bringing both swords down in a devastating cross-slash.
The impact was explosive. The ground shook as the Calamity Mutant staggered back, its wounds gushing. Karsha landed gracefully, immediately pressing the attack. He unleashed a rapid flurry of strikes, each one precise and deadly.
The monster tried to retaliate, but Karsha was too fast. He sidestepped its clumsy attacks, his swords a whirlwind of motion.

With a final, powerful thrust, he drove both blades into the mutant’s heart. The creature let out a final, guttural roar before collapsing to the ground.
"Another one down," he muttered to himself, after picking up the core, he looked ahead and started moving deeper into the forest for his next target.
So far, he has killed three fire-type calamity Mutants earning 3,000,000 points. He has now earned 7,000,600 and has ascended the ranking from 53 to 9. Mei Lin has been pushed to 11th while Xian is now at 10th.
Killing a Tier 7 monster earns 1,000 points, but taking down a Tier 7 Calamity Mutant is worth a thousand times more. A Tier 7 Calamity Mutant is comparable to a Peak Sage human, so no disciple, except maybe a madman like Karsha, would dare venture into a territory teeming with them.
After a few minutes, Karsha encountered another Calamity Mutant. Wasting no time, he channeled 10% of his ice essence and sent a crescent ice arc slicing through the air. The monster’s head rolled clean off, the wound sealed without a drop of blood spilling. Karsha quickly grabbed the core and drained the blood.
A few minutes later, he faced another one and killed it with a single strike. Soon, another mutant appeared.
"It seems I’ve entered the heart of their territory," Karsha thought, smiling as he prepared to get serious. His body began to glow golden as he channeled his light element. His swords gleamed with a golden aura, their tips coated in Sword Qi.
"Time to hunt," Karsha muttered as he dashed forward, sending a Fire Arc slicing through the Calamity Mutant like tofu.
He willed the system to pick up the core, not needing to drain the blood himself since his ring handled that task.
"That’s more like it," Karsha said, his ears burning with delight.
Surrounding him were three Tier 7 Calamity Mutants, each one eager to tear him apart. Karsha wasn’t particularly scared. He quickly activated his movement technique and, like lightning, began attacking the three monsters.
His movements were a blur as he weaved between the mutants, his swords flashing with deadly precision. He launched a series of rapid strikes, each one hitting its mark.
The first mutant roared in pain as Karsha’s blade cut through its tough hide, the fire element scorching its flesh.
The second mutant lunged at him, but Karsha was too quick. He sidestepped the attack and countered with an Ice Arc, freezing the creature’s limbs in place.
With a swift slash, he decapitated the mutant, its head rolling away as the body shattered into icy fragments.
The third mutant, seeing its comrades fall, charged at Karsha with reckless fury. Karsha met the charge head-on, his body glowing with a golden aura.
He unleashed a powerful beam of fire attack, blasting the mutant off its feet. Before it could recover, Karsha was upon it, delivering a final, lethal strike.
"No active skill, but I can kill three Calamity Mutants just like that?" Karsha glanced at the three bodies, a strange look in his eyes.
"Have I become this terrifying?" he wondered. He hadn’t used a single active skill, just his elemental attacks, yet he managed to kill beings two realms above him. It shouldn’t have been that easy.
"It has to be the sword," Karsha said, looking at the Enigma sword. The sword had made his attacks several times more lethal, using minimal energy to defeat the strongest foes.
He examined the Enigma sword, its blade gleaming with an otherworldly light. It felt like an extension of himself, amplifying his power in ways he hadn’t fully understood until now.
Each swing, each strike, was infused with a potency that cut through his enemies like butter.
Karsha tightened his grip on the sword, feeling a surge of confidence. If this weapon could give him such an edge, there was no telling how far he could go.
He quickly retrieved the cores and then started moving even further deep into the forest. Soon, he started slicing through Tier 7 Calamity Mutants like Buttar.

Outside the forest, the sect leaders, the king, and the seven individuals who followed him continued to stare at the ranking tablet with bewildered expressions.
It had been five hours since Karsha entered the heart of the territory, and in that time, he had skyrocketed to the number one spot with 28 million points, a figure that kept increasing by the second.
"What’s going on?" one sect leader asked, his face full of shock. He wasn’t alone; all the sect leaders, including Yi Ran, were stunned, staring at the ranking in disbelief.
It had only been two days since the disciples entered the island, yet Karsha had already achieved and surpassed the kingdom’s set goal.
"Sect Leader Yi Ran, what do you have to say?" another sect leader asked, turning to the only person who might have an answer.
"What is there to say? It’s clear to us all that Karsha is hunting Calamity Mutants," Yi Ran replied, her tone proud and unrestrained, making no effort to hide her happiness.
"But how is that possible?" another sect leader questioned.
Yi Ran smiled behind her veil and said, "It’s Karsha. None of your disciples stood a chance from the start. This competition is child’s play to him. If you don’t want your confidence shattered, it would be best to remove him from the ranking and compare the rest of your disciples among themselves."
"Unbelievable, I don’t believe a mere Grandmaster stage cultivator can kill Tier 7 Calamity Mutant" one sect leader muttered, still struggling to process the rapid rise.
Yi Ran, standing tall and proud, couldn’t hide her satisfaction. "As I said, Karsha is in a league of his own." She looked up the ranking and smiled.
The numbers 1, 2, and 3 are all from her sect. One of them is her husband and the other two are her sisters. Who wouldn’t be proud of that?
’Thank you Karsha, although I never really wanted this position, you’ve changed my worldview this time’ Yi Ran said inwardly and let a small smile escape her lips.
