World Magic: I Awakened Light and Dark Magic Attributes - Chapter 25

Chapter 25: The Harvest Was Fruitful

It was 7 pm in the evening.

In the mountain forest, a ground-piercing tiger was leisurely walking on the rugged mountain path.

Its body was extremely huge. Its height was about 1.5 meters, and its body was about 2 meters long!

Its entire body was covered in yellow and black stripes, and on its forehead was a large symbol that resembled the word ‘king’ in a foreign language!

Right at this moment, it sniffed the air with its nose, and its gaze suddenly turned to the tallest tree on the side, and then it let out a deafening roar.

“Roar!”

“As expected of a creature that is difficult to deal with among high-level and low-level demon beasts. It actually found me just by relying on its nose.”

Accompanied by a low voice, Hughes walked out from behind the tall tree helplessly.

“Roar!”

The sudden appearance of a human… the ground-piercing tiger’s muscles contracted, and it immediately entered into battle mode!

Bang!

Its eyes were red, and then its body glowed with an earthen yellow light. Immediately after, the earth seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, forming numerous sharp spikes that stabbed towards Hughes.

“I’ve long been preparing for this move.”

Hughes smiled slightly, and with a stomp of his feet, he directly retreated three to four meters away. After landing, he just happened to leave the range of the ground-piercing tiger!

The ground-piercing was an earth-type demon beast. Moreover, it was one of the rarer demon beasts among the high-level and low-level demon beasts that could release magic.

The earth spike that suddenly appeared on the ground in front of Hughes was his masterpiece!

Earlier this afternoon, Hughes had killed countless tigers already. He knew its patterns like the back of his hand.

That was why he could dodge these earth spikes so easily.

“Now it’s my turn! Chained light arrows!”

Hughes’ eyes flashed, and the tome in the air began to flip its pages. As the tome slowly flipped, more than ten golden spears formed from light magic appeared.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The golden spear was like a sharp arrow, whistling as it approached the ground-piercing tiger at an extremely fast speed.

The golden spear was now twice as long as before, and its width had also greatly increased. Compared to the golden spear from before, this was much more awe-inspiring.

And that gigantic ground-piercing tiger actually seemed to have seen its natural enemy. After roaring, it actually turned around and wanted to escape!

“Only now do you want to escape? It’s a little too late!”

Upon seeing this, Hughes’s heart raced, and the golden spear’s speed suddenly increased. Then, with a swoosh, it directly pierced through the ground-piercing tiger.

“Hmm, my proficiency of the chained light arrows is getting higher and higher.”

Walking to the ground-piercing tiger’s corpse, Hughes smiled slightly.

The chained light arrows had already been upgraded to the mastery stage, but they could not be increased by mana points. Moreover, the power of the light sword of punishment sin was too great.

Therefore, he could only increase the proficiency of the chained light arrows first, and it would be best if he could train it to the point where it could be wielded like an arm.

Crouching beside the body of the ground-piercing tiger, Hughes took out a sharp dagger and began to dissect it.

He had bought this dagger from a classmate he met in the underground cave.

Otherwise, it would be too troublesome if he had to use the chain light arrow multiple times to retrieve the magic core.

After a while, he took out a fist-sized earthy yellow magic core from the stomach of the ground-piercing tiger and put it back into his backpack.

“This is all money!”

Looking at the various magic cores in his backpack, Hughes could not help but smile happily.

From 10 am until now, he had killed four ground-piercing tigers, three gale wolves, three iron-skinned pigs, and three shadow snakes.

From the bodies of these demon beasts, he had collected a total of 13 magic cores!

Although the levels of these magic cores were mostly different, he roughly estimated that the value of these things was at least 300,000USD!

In just seven to eight hours, he had earned over 300,000USD!

He would never dream of earning such money in the past.

After confirming the number of magic cores in his backpack, Hughes opened the attribute panel again.

[Host: Hughes]

[Realm: Advanced mage, (Low-level)]

[Magic attributes: Light Magic (SS), Dark Magic (SS)]

[Mana points: 375 points]

[Magic: Chained light arrows (control +) , light sword of punishment (low-level), blindness (low-level)]

[Contract Magic Beast: None]

[Magic Tool: Lorelei’s Secret Manual]

“I still can’t use my mana points to level up?”

Seeing that there was no plus sign on the status panel, Hughes frowned.

What he wanted to level up now was as an elemental mage!

When he became an elemental mage, he could prepare to collect the heavenly thunder material in nature and use it to hatch the purple thunder fire lion!

“Forget it. Since my mana points are not enough to level up, I’ll wait until tomorrow!”

Looking at the time on his phone, Hughes did not hesitate and turned around to leave.

The underground cave at night was very dangerous. Even if he had a Tier 3 magic spell, he might not be able to guarantee his safety.

As he had been hunting demon beasts near the entrance of the underground cave, he did not walk for long before he saw the entrance to return.

At this moment, there were many people waiting in line at the entrance.

“Haha, our team killed a high-level low-level ground-piercing tiger today. After completing this mission, I can buy a new staff!”

“Congratulations, the ground-piercing tiger is the most difficult to deal with among the high-level low-level demon beasts. Killing one should earn a lot of credits, right?”

“That’s for sure! It has a total of 40 credits!”

“Tsk tsk, 40 credits, that’s really not bad. Our team wandered around inside for a whole day, but only managed to kill one high-level and low-level gale wolf.”

“Your team doesn’t have a contracted beast. To be able to achieve this level is already considered not bad.”

“Sigh, contracted beasts are too expensive. After buying the staff, battle uniform, and medicine, there isn’t money left to buy the contracted beasts.”

“It’s fine. After going to the catacombs a few more times, we can earn enough money to buy the contracted beasts.”

…

As soon as Hughes went over, he heard the discussions of the middle school students in the team.

“If you knew that I killed thirteen demon beasts in a day, wouldn’t you be scared to death by me!” Hughes, who was at the back of the team, could not help but think.

At this moment, a sweet and pleasant voice came from behind. “Hughes!”

“Huh?”

Hughes, who was at the back of the team, turned his head and saw a group of four people walking behind him.

The one who had called him was Alice.
