anything else dealing with stuff like that, blurds, nerds, introverts,
(00:22):
or talking lifestyle, all of it. I'll be host Lee
and what you'll be here today is episodes of super Gene.
This is not my book. You can find this book
on Way of Novel or might be able to find
it on somewhere else. I found it on Way of
(00:42):
Novels when I first started reading Well of Novels a
couple of years back.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
But it's a good book. It's a good read.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
I guarantee you'll like it.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Chapter one, super Gene, Why is Stony Creek?
Speaker 3 (00:56):
In a valley, a black clad young man was holding
a black beat ale with the metallic chine that looked
like a cross between a crab and a Hercules beetle.
Holding a dagger in his other hand, the young man
swiftly cut the still struggling claws off the beetle, revealing
white and tender meat.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Almost without hesitation.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
The young man sucked the meat out of the claws
as if he were eating a crab and swallowed it
together with larger pieces of tougher meat.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Black beetle killed. No be'ts soul gained.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Eat the flesh of the black beetle to gain zero
to ten geno points. Randomly black beetle fleshy zero geno
points gained. A strange voice sounded in Hansen's mind, and
some data also appeared. Conset not evolved, status none, lifespan
two hundred years required for evolution, one hundred geno points.
(01:46):
Geno points gained seventy nine best souls gained none. I
have received zero geno points from more than thirty black
beetles in a row. I must have eaten too much
black beetle flesh to evolve from it further zero points.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
When while I ever.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Finished the first evolution and gain status, Hanson looked frustrated.
Over one hundred years ago, science and technology reached a
very high level, and humans finally mastered space teleportation technology. Shockingly,
when they tried to be teleported, they found that they
were neither sent back to the past nor teleported to
the future. They didn't even travel from one planet to another.
(02:25):
A completely different world lay at the other end. Of
the space teleport channel a world that human beings could
not have imagined. In this world, all scientific and technological
means lost their function. A machine gun in this world
was not even as useful as a steel knife. Missiles
and nuclear weapons would not explode same as a heap
of scrap iron. No mechanical or electronic equipment would work either.
(02:49):
All kinds of horrible creatures inhabited this world. Human beings
who used to stand on top of the food chain
because of their wisdom and technology, fell to the bottom.
But when people killed and relatively weak creatures and ate
their flesh, they were surprised to find that their own
bodies changed considerably and evolved quickly in ways that science
could not explain. What made people pleasantly surprised was that
(03:12):
in this world, with the evolution of the body, their
life spans also increased, which was amazing news to all mankind.
In the following century, more and more people entered this
world called God's Sanctuary, gradually became familiar with the rules
of this world hundred its creatures, and saw their own
bodies evolved. The higher the degree of physical evolution, the
(03:33):
longer the life. Theoretically, if you could continue evolving, it
could be possible to live forever. In this world, science
and technology became completely useless. The only things that could
help humans were the most primitive fighting skills. Ancient martial arts,
which were almost forgotten in modern society, had an unexpected effect. Here,
(03:55):
all kinds of ancient martial arts had been redeveloped, and
after more than one hundred years of time development, new
martial arts schools were formed and became prominent. In addition
to ancient martial arts, God's Sanctuary offered another tool to.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Enhance humans, the beast's soul.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
When killing a creature in God's Sanctuary, a person had
a chance to obtain the beast's soul of the creature.
Best souls had all kinds of forms and appearances. Some
could be summoned to fight for men, and some appeared
in the form of armor or weapon. In addition, some
best souls could even help humans transform so they could
take the shape of terrifying monsters, magical birds flying between
(04:33):
heaven and Earth, or insects drilling underground. Neither martial arts
nor best souls had anything to do with hans. Even
in modern society, advanced science and technology were in the
hands of just a few people. Hanson completed integrated compulsory
education and entered God's Sanctuary when he turned sixteen. What
(04:53):
he had learned from school was no more than the
beginning level new martial arts that everyone knew as for
best souls, they were so expensive that Hanson couldn't afford
even the cheapest Without martial arts and beast's souls, or
even advanced man made alloy weapons, Hansen was only able
to kill some low level creatures to eat their flesh
and evolved, and he was having a difficult time in
(05:15):
God's Sanctuary. But the more meat of low level creatures
he ate, the less effective evolution. He gained three months
in God's Sanctuary and he still could not complete a
physical evolution.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Hanson had tried to kill some.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
Of the more powerful creatures, but even the weakest primitive creature,
the copper toothed beast, almost took his life. He had
to rest for nearly a month before returning to God's Sanctuary.
By this time, Hanson had eaten all kinds of ordinary
creatures around him, and it wouldn't help to eat their
flesh anymore if.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
He didn't risk hunting more advanced creatures he would never evolve.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
When he was about to try to kill a copper
toothed beast, Hanson saw something climbing out from the ripples
of the creek. He originally thought it was a black beetle,
but immediately noticed something different. All black beetles had black shells,
but a bright golden color caught his eye. Hansen gazed
at the creature climbing out of the water. It really
was a black beetle, but different from the ordinary ones
(06:12):
because of its golden body.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
As big as a basketball.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
It was like a sculpture card from gold, and its
eyes were crystal clear like gems. It did not even
look like a living thing unless observed carefully. Why is
this black beetle so strange? Hanson stared at the golden
black beetle. Recently, he had killed countless black beetles and
knew everything about them. Their vision was poor, but their
hearing was very sensitive. As long as he remained still,
(06:39):
even in close proximity, a black beetle would not notice
his presence. Hanson stared at the strange beetle, and unexpectedly,
it climbed toward him without hesitation. When the golden black
beetle crawled next to Hans sound. He held down the
golden black beetles shell with one hand and swiftly cut
into its fragile joints with the dagger in his other hand.
(07:00):
Ate six clean cuts vertically and horizontally to remove all
six claws of the beetle.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
The golden black beetles struggled and flipped over.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Taking this opportunity, Hanson pierced his dagger into a white
mark on its belly and turned it sharply. The Golden
black beetles suddenly stopped moving. Sacred Blood creature Black Beetle
killed be soul of Sacred Blood. Black Beetle gained get
the flesh of sacred Blood Black beetle to gain zero to.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Ten geno points randomly. Chapter two.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
As freak, Hanson was stunned by the sudden voice in
his head, and he could hardly believe it was true.
Sacred Blood creature and Sacred Blood be soul were those
even real? The creatures of God's Sanctuary were divided into
four parts ordinary creatures, primitive creatures, mutant creatures, and sacred
Blood creatures. Different geno points could be gained by eating
(07:51):
flesh of creatures of different types. At that time, there
were four God sanctuary phases known to men. With each
physical evolution compared, access to the next space would be permitted.
The more powerful the geno points used in evolution, the
higher the likelihood of surviving in the next space. Sacred
blood beet's souls were, without any doubt, the best best's souls.
(08:13):
Any sacred blood beet's soul could be sold at an
enormous price. When Hanson finally realized what had really happened,
he was almost trembling, holding the dagger to pick open
the shell of the black beetle. He filled his mouth
with meat as tender as jelly flesh of black beatle.
Eating one sacred geno point gained Feeling the flesh turned
to energy, and hearing the voice in his mind almost
(08:35):
brought Hans into tears. He grabbed a claw and sucked
out all meat from it, feeling waves of energy hitting
his body and boiling his blood. There was not much
difference between eating a sacred blood black beetle and eating
a crab. After sucking the meat clean from all six claws,
Hanson started to cut the meat inside the shell flesh
of black beatle eating one sacred Geno point gained flesh
(08:59):
of black beetle. One sacred Gino point gained. The strange
voice continuously sounded in Hanson's mind and made him feel
on top of the world. As Hanson was cutting away,
he felt his dagger cut into something hard that made
a sound like metal. Hansen stopped. Black beetles and crabs
are alike. They looked tongue, but inside their shells there
(09:20):
would be nothing but boneless meat, So how could there
be metal. He removed the dagger, pulled aside the meat
that had been cut, and saw a corner of black metal.
Hanson cut open all the meat surrounding it, and soon
the black metal was completely exposed. At first he thought
it was metal, but taking it out, he discovered that
it was a black crystal the size and shape of
(09:41):
a pigeon egg. Hanson took the crystal in his hand
and didn't feel anything abnormal. The crystal was just like
a beautiful, rounded black petal, but with a closer look,
there seemed to be millions of stars shining in it,
creating incredible beauty. Here's the easiest area in God's sanctuary.
Hanson thought even primitive creatures are hard to find here,
(10:03):
let alone sacred blood creatures. How did this sacred blood
black beetles suddenly appear? And I've never heard of a
sacred blood black beetle before. Black beetles are such low
life after all, and this sacred blood black beetle is
so outrageously weak.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Is its appearance related to the crystal?
Speaker 3 (10:20):
There was no clue, so he simply ate all the
rest of the black beetle meat and was stuffed. He
gained a total of seven sacred geno points. Seven sacred
geno points were beyond his wildest dreams. With his background,
he needed to risk everything even to kill a primitive creature,
let alone a sacred blood creature. The shell of the
sacred blood black beetle was also precious material, so Hanson
(10:43):
picked up all the claws and stuffed him into his
pocket together with the upper and lower shells. The shell
of ordinary black beetles almost had no value, but the
shell of a sacred blood black beetle would probably make
a suit that could give him one for two more
sacred geno points. It was the first time Hanson had
eaten a sacred blood creature. Technically, he could max out
(11:05):
and get ten sacred Geno points. He already hit seven
from the meat and the other three should be in
the shell. If he were to sell the shell, he
could probably afford a nice private aircraft and Levo interstellar
alliance with the money he received. On the way back
to Steel Armor Castle, everyone was pointing at him, gloating
and laughing, and no one would come near him. Everyone
(11:26):
in the sanctuary was looking at him as if he
were a monster. Normally, when an ordinary person went to
the sanctuary, even if he were poor, if his martial
skills were not too bad, he could always find some
companions and kill a few primitive creatures together, and he
would be nowhere near as miserable as Hans Senior. However,
in the entire Steel Armor Castle, no one was willing
(11:49):
or had the courage to have anything to do with
Hans Senior. More than three months ago, Hansen had entered
God's Sanctuary for the first time. The moment he stepped
outside Steel Armor Shelter, he saw a giant white wolf
unicorn standing with its back towards.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Him around the corner of the rampart.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Without hesitation, Hansen grabbed his dagger and fiercely stabbed the
unicorn in the ass. This stab turned Hansen and Cheanged
Sheen together into the biggest laughing stock in Steel Armor Shelter. Yes,
the White Wolf Unicorn was not a beast but a
human like Hanson himself, she was just transforming using a
beast's soul. Chean Sheen was also the most powerful woman
(12:27):
in Steel Armor Shelter. She was likely to finish her
first evolution with sacred geno points and embark on the
path of evolution a new guy. Stabbing Chean Shean's rear
and became the biggest joke in Steel Armor's Shelter. Although
no one dared to mention this to Chang Sheen's face,
Secretly everyone was laughing their asses off, and As Freak
became Hansen's well known nickname and Steel Armor Shelter. Then
(12:51):
Chang Shechen declared that whoever spent time with Hansen would
become her enemy and Steel Armor Shelter. Few people could
afford to be Chean Shean's enemy. Even if they could
afford it, no one would risk antagonizing Chean Shan for
the sake of a nobody in As Freak. That was
why Hanson had such a difficult time, but he didn't
really blame Chean Shan. It was his fault in the
(13:12):
first place. He was too nervous the first time he
came to God Sanctuary, plus he had never seen creatures
in his previous world were transformers before, which all led
to the unforgivable mistake. Hansen was already grateful that Chian
Shan did not kill him in anger. The only lucky
thing was that the teleportation into God Sanctuary was always random,
(13:34):
and there were no familiar faces in steel arm or Shelter,
so no one knew his real name. Chapter three, Sacred
Blood Armor. Hansen returned to his room, made a fire
and started boiling the black beetle claws and shells in
a pot. Without tools and knowhow, he could only use
the most primitive methods to process the shells and extract
the geno essence. The shell of a Sacred Blood creature
(13:57):
would take more than an hour or two to cook,
so Hanson covered the lid and took out the black
crystal to take a closer look. Still no clues whatsoever.
Suddenly Hanson caught a glimpse of the caged green scale beast,
the size of a civic cat in the corner of
his room and suddenly had an idea. Like black beetles,
this green scaled beast was an ordinary creature. Hanson used
(14:19):
to prey on them and bring them back to cook
and eat to increase his geno points. But later green
scale beasts no longer increased his geno points, so Hanson
didn't meet the last beast and forgot about it.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Surprisingly, it was still alive.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
He grabbed the morbun green scaled beast from the cage,
hesitated for a moment, and was about to feed the
black crystal to the beast. This surprise, seeing the black crystal,
the dying green scaled beast gathered all its strength to
stretch out its tongue, rolled the black crystal back into
its mouth, and swallow the whole crystal. There is indeed
something magical about the black crystal. Hanson was stunned and
(14:56):
found that the green scale beast seemed considerably more lively
after swallowing the crystal, its four claws scratching and head
moving to bite Hansen's hand, which was on its neck.
Hanson through the green scaled beast back into the cage
and carefully watched it The beast, which hadn't fed for days,
completely recovered its vitality, crashing and scratching wildly in the cage, just.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Like it had when it was first caught.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
Hansen sat across from the cage and watched the movements
of the green scaled beast. He had a guess, and
if he was right, he might have obtained something incredible,
something more exciting than.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
A sacred blood creature.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
But Hansen was afraid he was wrong, so he could
only stare at the green scaled beast anxiously, hoping to
see the change that he desired. Hanson nervously stared intently
and did not realize that he was starving until he
smelled bone.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Broth from the pot.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Looking at the time, he noticed almost twenty four hours
had passed. Rising to check the black beetle's shell in
the pot, he saw the golden color of the shell
had been boiled off and the broth had become golden.
It smelled so good that the hungry young man's mouth
watered about to scoop up a bowl of soup. Hanson
suddenly heard iron breaking from the cage of the green
(16:08):
scaled beast. He quickly turned around and saw the green
scale beast had bidden off an iron bar of the
cage and stretched out his head from the inside. Its
light green scales had now completely turned a dark green color.
Its teeth had become sharp, and the tips of its
fore claws were like iron hooks. The beast was about
to come out of the cage. Hansen was pleasantly surprised
(16:29):
and pulled out the dagger from his waist. He rushed
to the front of the cage and stabbed the dagger
into the lower belly of the green scale beast. With
a turn of the dagger, the green scaled beast stopped struggling.
Primitive creature. Green scaled beast killed no bee's soul, gained
eat the flesh of the primitive green scaled beast to
gain zero to ten points randomly, the strange voice sounded
(16:51):
and hans Sen's mind and left him stunned. Primitive green
scale beast primitive creature. So the crystal can really make
these reachs evolved. Hansen was overwhelmed with joy and did
not know how to react. After a long time, he
suddenly cut open the green scaled beast with the dagger
and uncovered the crystal as big as a pigeon egg,
(17:12):
taking no heat of the blood on it. He kissed
the crystal twice and then wiped it clean, holding it
in his hands like it was a great treasure. The
crystal was really the reason the black beetle became a
sacred blood creature. If the green scaled beast had continued
to evolve, could it have become.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
A sacred blood creature too.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Hanson almost dared not think about it because it was
just too amazing. He was so excited that his hands
were trembling while holding the crystal. He bit his tongue
and cried out of pain so as to know that
it really was not a dream. After remaining excited for
quite a while, Hanson carefully put the crystal away, gobbled
up the shell broth, and gained another sacred geno point,
(17:52):
bringing his geno point count to eight. Without tools and means,
his primitive method couldn't extract all geno essence from the shell,
but it was good enough that he gained one sacred
geno point. Hanson realized that he had gained a sacred
blood be soul of a black beetle when he killed
the golden black beetle, and he quickly accessed his profile.
Hansen not a ball status none, lifespan two hundred years.
(18:17):
Requirements for revolution one hundred geno points, geno points gained
seventy nine geno points eight sacred geno points. Be soule
gained sacred blood black beetle. Type of sacred blood black
beetles be soul armor. What would the armor of sacred
blood black beetles be soul look like? Before Hanson finished
(18:38):
the thought, a golden shadow shot out of thin air,
looking exactly like the golden black beetle. The golden black
beetle flew to Hansen's chest, turned into a golden liquid,
and started to cover his whole body. In the blink
of an eye, Hansen's whole body, together with his hair,
was all wrapped up. The streamlined gold armor was full
of power and impact and covered his whole body as
(19:01):
if it were a suit of Gothic medieval armour instilled
with improved aerodynamics.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
It looked just like a piece of art.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
The whole suit of armor felt full of power and speed,
making Hans and look slender and majestic, as if his
whole body were full of explosive power with shining metallic luster.
The armour was gorgeous and had a solid texture. At
first glance, it was even somewhat like the gold cloth
worn by golden saints. The difference between the gold cloth
(19:29):
and the beast's sole armour was that the armor covered
the head and body completely, with only a few gaps
in the joints where different pieces overlapped, just like the
black beetle itself, which was the only weakness of the
beast's soul armour. Hanson moved around in the armor and
there was no feeling of heaviness or clumsiness. Instead, he
felt that his body had become a little lighter and
(19:50):
full of energy. Indeed, this was armour from a sacred
blood beet's soul. It is way more gorgeous than the
ones from primitive beasts souls that I often have seen.
It steel armour shelter hansenfeldic static. He used to envy
people in armor of primitive beast's souls and had never
thought he would get a suit of a sacred blood
best soul. One day chapter four the Old House, yet
(20:12):
group president Jao Yalong completed the third evolution, entered Fourth
God Sanctuary and became the eighty third human in history
to enter Fourth God Sanctuary. His lifespan has reached five
hundred years and he has gained the status of Demigod.
The Prodigy from ry Coot Galaxy. Lang entered Second God
Sanctuary with one hundred mutation Geno points. His lifespan has
(20:36):
reached three hundred years and he has gained the status
of Evolver, the Speaker of the House of Representatives. Hemingway
killed a demigod creature Star of the Ocean yesterday and
was the first to accomplish this feat. According to authoritative experts,
in ten years someone will complete the fourth evolution for
the first time and advance into Fifth God Sanctuary. Hanson
(20:58):
had just teleported from the Steel Armor Shah and the
news was playing on a virtual screen. Evolver, Surpasser and
Demigod with the Black Crystal, I will be able to
do all that and go even farther. Hansen shook his fist,
stepped away from the teleport station, and took the maglev
train home.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Before you went into the.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Yard, Hanson heard a harsh female voice. Luo, sulon, do
you want to take the old house of the Hans.
This house was our parents and my two elder brothers
and I each on a part. Now my eldest brother
has passed. We won't bully you since you are a
widow and will leave you a share, but if you
want to take everything, we will never agree. That's right,
(21:38):
the voice of a middle aged man chimed in the
old house has always been the inheritance of our parents.
All of us have rights to it, and you can't
keep it for yourselves. Your family has lived here for
more than twenty years, so you have already taken advantage
of us in a big way. It is time to
divide the inheritance. My brother has said it. A soft
pitched male voice continued, you lived in the old house
(22:01):
for more than twenty years. We will not collect the rent,
but this old house is our inheritance and has to
be divided. A young woman's voice could be heard saying,
we have an estimate from a lawyer, and this old
house is now worth more than three million. We are
three households, so we should get a million each. You
can either give each of us a million and own
(22:21):
this old house outright, or sell the house and then
we all split the money. We are okay with either option.
You choose exactly. Now that our eldest brother is gone,
we won't bully as widow and kids.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
You can give us money or sell.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
The house as you like. The harsh first voice began again.
Brother and sister, there is no need to force me.
You know our situation. We don't have two million, a
woman said sadly, then put the house up for sale.
The harsh woman immediately said where would we live without
a house? Hanston just graduated and han Yin is about
to go to school. This sad woman said, sister in law,
(22:59):
this is not How are you the only one with troubles?
Your kids, Hansen and han Yin are only enrolled in
integrated compulsory education, while my hot how goes to a
private school. This tuition gives me gray hair every year. Sister,
you are right. We are all having a hard time
and everyone needs money. Why don't we just sell the house.
(23:20):
We could all take some and you could afford Hanyan's education,
said the effeminate voice. Anyway, you either give us money
or sell the house. Your choice, the young woman said coldly.
Outside the house, Hansen became furious as he listened. He
pushed the door open and saw his mother shedding tears
while holding his sister han yin. The five year old
(23:42):
girl curled up in the arms of her mother, her
big eyes full of fear. Next to them, two men
and two women were all smiling indifferently.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
How dare you come here and ask for the old house?
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Hanson pointed to the fierce looking fat woman and exclaimed
in anger. And you used to be an accountant in
the company and brought up tens of millions and bad debts?
Did my dad not help you after you begged him? Hansen?
What nonsense?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Who caused bad debts? Stopped lying?
Speaker 3 (24:09):
The skinny guy with the effeminate voice cry wanting to
haunt sr uncle? You embezzled the company's public funds to
invest and lost a few million. Hanson pointed to the
skinny guy. Did you not come to my home and
get on your knees to beg my dad for help?
And you, uncle, you owed so many gambling debts that
you were almost forced to commit suicide. Who helped you
(24:30):
when you were almost beaten to death? Who saved your life?
Hanson pointed to the fat middle aged man. Story group
wanted to acquire our family business? If my dad didn't
represent all of you and then had to falling out
with Starry Group. Would he have died in such a
shady way? Hanson clenched his teeth, looking at the four.
But you skipped my dad's funeral and sold the company
(24:52):
to Starry Group upon him as to what they've asked
for to either pay the money or sell the house? Son,
what did mister Jong say? Luo Sulon asked Hanson, looking
at him nervously. Don't you worry, mom. I have checked
with Uncle Jean and there is a solution. You just
make sure Yin is okay and I'll take care of this.
The house will not be taken away by anyone, Hansen
(25:14):
said with a smile. That's good, that's great. Luo Sulon
breathed a sigh of relief. Having rested at home for
a night, Hanson took a train to the teleport station
and entered God's Sanctuary. In the morning, Hansen was teleported
to his room at the Steel Armor's Shelter. When one
was teleported into God's Sanctuary, one would appear in a
(25:35):
certain room only accessible to him or her unless permitted
by the owner. Others were not able to enter the
room before finishing the first evolution and entering second God Sanctuary.
This was Hansen's home in God Sanctuary. Now Hanson had
no power or influence. The only solution was to come
up with two million dollars in a month if he
(25:56):
wanted to keep the house. Although he felt it was unfair.
Without there was nothing left to do. Two million Levo
dollars was an enormous amount for a young man who
just finished integrated compulsory education. In the past, Hanson couldn't
have earned two million in a year, let alone in
a month, But now everything was different. In fact, if
(26:16):
he had not already cooked the shell of the sacred
blood black beetle, the shell alone would be worth one
or two million. Even without the shell, he still had
the black crystal that could make creatures evolve. As long
as he had that, two million was nothing. Looking at
the body of the primitive green scale beast on the ground,
Hanson hesitated for a moment before cutting the body into pieces.
(26:38):
He then dried the meat, made it into beef jerky,
and carried it with him in his waist pack. He
must first catch a creature before he could use the
crystal to make it evolve and trade the flesh of
the evaulved creature for money. Now that Hanson owned a
suit of sacred, bloody soul armour, he could up his
game and start to hunt primitive.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Creatures instead of ordinary creatures.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Primitive creature weren't worth much, and he would waste a
day's time waiting for an ordinary creature to evolve into
a primitive one. To come up with two million, Hansen
would need to sell at least a new creature. Primitive
creatures were usually seen a dozen kilometers from steel armor shelter.
Hansen had not dared to go that far before, but
now he has had his armor. This time his goal
(27:21):
was no longer a copper toothed beast, the weakest among
all primitive creatures, but the swift man is often spotted
in Zephyr Valley. Although a primitive creature, a swift man
has had a fragile body and could easily be killed
by a normal alloy dagger if stabbed in a vulnerable spot. However,
a swift maness was so fast that ordinary people couldn't
(27:42):
keep up with it, and its pair of hacksaw like
fore legs could easily split human bones. Once hit by
the fore legs, a person would be crippled if not killed,
so few humans would go to hunt this creature. For Hansen, however,
the swift manness was the best option. It was, in
the end, only a primitive creature, and there was no
way it could cut open his sacred blood be soul armor.
(28:04):
If he couldn't be hurt by the mandis, surely he
could kill it. The most important thing was that, with
claws and wings cut off, a swift man as could
no longer fight back, but could still live. This way,
Hansen could easily take it back, keep it in his room,
and use the black crystal to make it evolve into
a mutant creature before he sold its flesh. Of course,
(28:25):
if he were able to kill a few swift mannass
and got lucky, he might even.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Gain a beast's soul.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
The beast's soul of a swift Mandis was in the
shape of a swift jagged blade, which was a long dagger,
a type of weapon Hanson had mastered. Although the swift
jagged blade was only a primitive beast sole weapon, it
was the sharpest of all primitive weapons and could even
compare to some mutant best sole weapons. Because of the
danger of hunting swift mannases if you would go to
(28:51):
Zephyr Valley, and even fewer had obtained a swift jagged blade.
If the rare weapon were to be sold, it would
cost more than two million. So Jon could score a
beast's soul of a swift Mandess, there would be no
need to sell.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Mutant creature flesh anymore.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
The closer Hansen got to Zephyr Valley, the fewer people
he could see around the valley. There was no human
activity at all. Hanson did not dare to go too deep,
so he found a hidden place and summoned the sacred
blood black beetle be sold to cover himself in the
golden armor. Taking a deep breath, he sneaked towards Zephyr Valley.
(29:26):
Hansen did not dare to go too fast. The valley
was covered with trees and wild grass as tall as
a man. As the trees and grass swung with the wind,
it was difficult to spot any swift Mandis that might
be hiding there. Even momentary carelessness could lead to broken
bones from a Mandis attack.
