40 Judgment

The wounds were severe but he pulled through. On the other hand, the bull wasn’t doing fine either.

Lu Chen had activated the Boiling Blood beforehand, adding 3 points in his Strength totaling it up to 32 points.

But that was not all, he also cast Critical Strike in the attack. This allowed Lu Chen to muster all of his energy and deliver a blow that was 64 times stronger than the usual strength of any ordinary barbarian.

It was a deadly blow, especially when the Fire Bull was charging into him in such powerful momentum. As a result, its front legs couldn’t withstand the reaction force and it collapsed to the ground with cracks all over its skull.

However, the cracks were all that it got from the clash. After all, the barbaric beasts have iron-like bodies that were even stronger than the Barbarian Blood Warriors.

While the Fire Bull wiggled its body as it tries to stand back up, but Lu Chen already saw his victory.

It is a sword made of metal that I use to clash with your body of flesh and blood. Even when I have not learned to use any penetrative energy, you will still definitely get a concussion every time I hit it on your head.

One must admit, although Lu Chen’s strength was not much use against Evils, it was certainly effective on the barbaric beasts.

Not to mention that the Fire Bull was using its head to fight against Lu Chen’s metal sword.

If Lu Chen, who has 44 points invested in his Constitution, even suffered severe wounds especially on his hands from the clash that just happened, imagine what would it do to the Fire Bull’s head.

Lu Chen sure was right about that. Although the Fire Bull was trying to get up, it had a concussion and damaged nerves from the clash, causing it to lose control over its body.

It tried to get up numerous times, but it would always end up falling down again after half standing up.

Lu Chen took his time to recover himself from the clash while watching the Fire Bull struggle. After he recovered some of his energy, he plucked his legs out from the ground and started moving toward the bull.

Even so, the Fire Bull was not up yet.

Or to be more precise, unless it knows any self-recovering abilities, it would never be able to recover from the maims in its head.

Right now, it was only struggling to salvage its life back from death with the barbaric beast’s inherently strong life force.

“I am stronger in terms of strength and body, furthermore, I wield a metal sword. That is why I’m the winner.”

As he said, Lu Chen swung his sword toward the Fire Bull’s neck.

At its final moments, Fire Bull felt its death approaching.

Krong—

Burning flames flared out from every part of its body, incinerating the grasses and leaves around it.

However, the fire couldn’t stop Lu Chen at all.

Lu Chen braced the fire and slammed the metal sword down on the Fire Bull’s neck.

At the moment of impact, Lu Chen felt as if he has struck on a piece of oiled cloth. The metal sword slipped to the side across the bull’s skin.

Lu Chen couldn’t help but squint his eyes.

Its skin, it’s such a good defense. Furthermore, not only that, it can even make the attacks slide to the sides. The barbarians’ arrows, javelins, and throwing axes would not land on it at all.

At the same time, its dominating strength makes it unstoppable if it wants to escape.

No wonder the village knew of its existence a long time ago but still never tried to get rid of it. They simply couldn’t do anything at it.

As he thought, Lu Chen didn’t stop his actions. He continued to smack on the bull’s neck for another two more times.

After the three smacks, even though the Fire Bull’s skin was still perfectly intact with no signs of damage at all, Lu Chen had fractured its neck spine bones into bits.

[System Message: Host has killed the Barbaric Beast—Fire Bull, and earned 500 Mastery Points.]

500? It’s almost the same as the Black Coffin Vicious Specter. That makes sense. Although the Black Coffin Vicious Specter is peculiar in prowess, the Fire Bull is no easy target either. It’s only because it was me that makes the hunt looked easy. If it was the rest of the barbarians, even a hundred of them might not be able to break its defenses.

After the system prompted him about the Fire Bull’s death, Lu Chen also heaved a breath of relief. After that, he looked at his bleeding hands.

My Constitution is still lacking!

After spending some time in this world, Lu Chen’s biggest understanding was the importance of Constitution in his survival.

In the battle with the Fire Bull, it may seem like it was his Strength that allowed him to claim his victory, but Lu Chen knew clearly if it wasn’ for his Constitution, he wouldn’t be able to pull through from the clash with the Fire Bull so easily.

At the very least, his arms would definitely break from the reaction force in the clash. Then, when the impact force travels into his body, his internal organs would shatter into pieces. He may be able to kill the Fire Bull after the clash, but he would also die from the injuries a short while later.

But a high Constitution gave him the courage to brace the clash fearlessly.

However, Lu Chen used his skills and delivered an attack that was equivalent to the prowess of having 64 points in Strength while having only 44 points of Constitution. Which also meant, he overdid it.

Which was why although Lu Chen didn’t die, he was injured to a certain degree.

I need more Constitution! freewebnove(l).com

As long as I have enough Constitution, I will be immune to the impact forces!

As he thought, Lu Chen climbed onto the Fire Bull and started drinking its blood.

I shouldn’t waste the blood. I’ll drink all the blood that flows out.

Then, he started drinking the blood.

When he was consuming the bull’s blood, Lu Chen felt warm energy flowing out from his stomach and to the rest of his body. At the same time, Lu Chen’s cells were nonstop absorbing the energy from the Fire Bull’s blood.

However, after drinking a few big mouthfuls of blood, Lu Chen felt his body heating up and he felt full.

The efficacy in the Fire Bull’s blood is equivalent to a hundred-years-old-long ginseng, the energy in it is abundant.

After taking another few big gulps, Lu Chen burped and he couldn’t take in any more. Lu Chen has never imagined there was a day he would feel full in this world.

Twenty-some kilograms of boar meat is just enough to stop me from starving, and now, I’m already full after drinking a dozen mouthful of the Fire Bull’s blood?

Surely, the ordinary food supplies are not enough to help the Barbarian Blood Warriors in improving our prowess anymore. At this stage, only food and soup made from the barbaric beasts’ flesh and blood are the best for us to improve.

Of course, one has to be rich enough to be able to live a lavish lifestyle like that.

I’m not rich nor is the village, but I have enough prowess to hunt. From now on, the barbaric beasts are my food.

Feeling the energy flowing in his body and seeing the Fire Bull’s blood spilling on the ground, Lu Chen didn’t want to waste the chance. He called up the system and chose to level up.

System, level up Swordsman.

Last night, Lu Chen spent 700 Mastery Points and raised his Swordsman class by two levels into Level 4.

Lu Chen killed a Black Coffin Vicious Specter in the night patrol and now hunted down a Barbaric Beast. Both creatures awarded him with a huge amount of Mastery Points and he now has a total of 1009 Mastery Points.

While the Mastery Points required to level up his Swordsman class was a 100 Mastery Points more than the previous level. Hence, Lu Chen now has more than enough Mastery Points to level up again. 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦𝑤𝘦𝑏𝓃ℴ𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝑚

[System Message: Host spent 500 Mastery Points and leveled up Swordsman class to Level 5.]

[System Message: Host’s Swordsman class has reached Level 5 and has been awarded with a chance to draw a skill. Drawing skill now…]

[System Message: Host has drawn the skill—Judgment.]

[System Message: Spirit Orbs have been detected, do you wish to reroll and draw another skill for 5 Spirit Orbs?]

Lu Chen didn’t answer the system’s message immediately and decided to look at the skill first.

[Judgment (Bronze): Rapidly spins the sword around the body, dealing physical damage to the enemies around. You can move while casting the skill.]

It’s Garen, The Might of Demacia. This is his third ability.
