Chapter 7: Two-Headed Demon Hound!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Young adventurer, thank you for your contribution to the village. This is your reward. Please accept it.”
In the village, the old village head wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations on completing the beginner mission: Kill the demonized chicken (30 / 30). Reward: +200 (+350) experience points, +100 reputation points, +200 bronze coins!”
A beginner mission actually had so many rewards.
It was a good harvest.
Lorne continued asking: “Village head, is there anything else?”
“No.”
The headman shook his head, then thought of something. “It seems that the missionary of the temple has encountered something. Perhaps you can go and ask him.”
The NPCs in virtual online games were not rigid. Many things could only be obtained by actively asking.
This was a hidden rule that every gamer had to know.
Receiving the hint, Lorne left the square.
Across the noisy streets, he reached a sanctified sanctum and found the missionary within.
“Young adventurer, thank you for your enthusiasm, but your current strength is not enough to accept this mission.”
The missionary looked at Lorne solemnly, then took out another mission slip, “If you insist on accepting this mission, please come to me with the materials required.”
“Ding!”
“Congratulations on accepting the mission: Missionary’s Assessment.”
“Mission Description: Kill 100 Stone Beetles alone within 48 hours. After completing the mission, you will receive the recognition of the missionary and a generous mission reward.”
It was actually a time-restricted mission.
Moreover, there should be an even bigger mission later on.
Lorne took note of the location of the mission on the map. It seemed that the stone beetles were high-level monsters, and their activity area was in the deepest part of the forest.
This could not be dealt with for the time being.
Now, it was more important to create a pet.
With that in mind, Lorne did not linger.
He hefted his staff and went toward the forest.
While on the way, he began to distribute the experience points on him.
Because the frequency of changing pets in the early stages was very high, using EXP to raise pets would cause a huge waste, so he still raised his own level.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations on reaching Level 2.”
“Congratulations on reaching Level 3.”
Two consecutive golden lights poured down. Lorne had reached Level 3. To be able to achieve such results in an hour, he was already considered a high-level player.
As for the attribute points he obtained…
Lorne allocated them with the ratio of 3 Constitution, 2 Agility.
5
[HP: 250 / 250 (100↑)]
[Speed: 25 (2↑)]
Then, he opened the skill tree.
He had just leveled up twice and gained two Skill Points.
In the first ten levels of “Divine Realm”, there were a total of three active skill columns. Apart from the initial “Magic Summoning”, he could also learn two other skills.
However, the Summoner did not have many choices in the early stages.
There was no need to spend points learning ordinary skills.
After some thought, he chose [Agile Movement].
————
[Agile Movement]
Effect: Permanently increases movement speed by 10%.
————
This was a skill that could not be leveled up. It required 2 Skill Points to learn.
Lorne felt it was cost-effective.
For a skill like this that permanently increased attributes, even if he needed more Skill Points, he had to learn it.
Because it would add to his strength, even after he got to a higher level.
After doing this, he glanced at his attributes again, but did not feel that his strength had increased.
It might be because of the Summoner class.
A class that relied on pets to fight definitely had ordinary attributes.
Fortunately, that was not what he relied on.
Right now, he only cared about the result of the pet synthesis.
With the existence of ‘Superiority’, every time he created a monster, there were infinite possibilities.
Perhaps one day, a wonderful idea would really grant him a very powerful legendary monster. At that time, he would no longer have to worry about medical fees.
…
With that in mind, Lorne plunged back into the forest.
In a pile of bushes, he found a cute demonized wild dog.
He ordered the Poisonous Slime to fight.
Soon, the battle ended.
With a trace of health left, the demonized dog warily watched the approaching Lorne.
Before it could strike, it was enveloped by the magic circle.
Then, Lorne pulled out another head of the demonized wild dog.
He placed it into the synthesis template.
“Ding!”
“A monster prototype and a material have been identified. The synthesis formula is: (Demonized Wild Dog) + (Head of the Demonized Wild Dog) = (???)”
“The cost is 120 bronze coins. Would you like to merge?”
Looking at the notification, Lorne took another deep breath.
This time, he had to succeed!
“Come out, Demon Hound from Hell!”
The atmosphere of the summoning ritual was perfect.
With a loud cry, the head of the demonized wild dog transformed into light and fused with the original monster.
In the light, its size increased.
The height, which was originally only half a meter tall, had now increased to one meter!
And it had two heads!
“Ding!”
“Merging successful!”
“Congratulations on obtaining the Elite Monster—Two-Headed Demon Hound!”
With that, a huge two-headed dog appeared in front of Lorne.
Its entire body was covered in black patterns. Its limbs were strong, and it had two terrifying beast heads on its head. Both of them looked in one direction with arrogant gazes, and they emitted the dignity of kings.
“Looks like it succeeded!”
“What are its attributes?”
Lorne was pleased with its appearance, but he looked forward to its attributes more.
He opened the information panel.
————
[Two-Headed Demon Hound] (Contract Possible)
Quality: Elite
Level: 1
HP: 600 / 600
Physical Attack: 38-56
Defense: 17
Superiority: 75%
2
Skill: [Double Bite]: Each head can deal 140% damage to the target.
Introduction: This is a Two-Headed Demon Hound mutated from a demonized wild dog. Its two heads do not affect its movements at all, while making it even stronger.
————
So powerful!
The attributes on the interface were beyond his expectations.
This was only a Level 1 monster, but its basic attributes were much stronger than a Level 3 demonized wild dog!
Health, attack, and defense had a huge lead in all aspects.
Moreover, this monster had the [Double Bite] skill. It could deal 280% damage per use. It was unbelievable.
With its damage output, basically no monster of the same level was its match. Coupled with the assistance of the Vitality Slime, even if it challenged monsters above level 5, it had a high chance of winning.
