The black serpent fell to the ground. Its body twitched twice before it stopped breathing. It seemed to be dead. Fran used his staff to poke the black serpent’s body. After seeing that it didn’t respond, he walked over and squatted down to check on the black serpent’s condition.

Because of the fire, the black serpent still had a burning smell. The scales on its body were still warm.

Fran touched it, and after wiping away the layer of burnt black substance, the remaining scales emitted a faint dark light.

He fiddled with the scales, and a rubbing sound came from them.

Snakeskin was very tough to begin with, and with the tough scales, it should be pretty good to use these scales to make protective equipment! After all, this was an elite monster. The scales looked even better than his intermediate protective equipment.

However, it needed to be polished well. Otherwise, just a piece of snakeskin, even the skin of an elite monster, would not be too useful. However, there was nothing that could remove the snakeskin.

If he could take off this snakeskin and sell it, he could probably make a lot of money! It would net him at least a few gold coins!

Fran was excited at the thought of selling them. He looked around, but didn’t find anything sharp that could help him remove the snakeskin.

When his gaze swept by and fell on the snake’s tail, he had a flash of inspiration. Then, the tail could be used as a knife! The black serpent’s tail was flat and sharp, and after being wrapped up, it became a small knife.

If he could find high-quality ores, he could even use the ores to embed them into a more perfect dagger. If he wanted to sell it, he should be able to sell it for two gold coins!

As he thought about it, he directly released a Level 1 swordsman skill. A swordsman’s aura slashed down vertically and cut off the tail of the black serpent.

Although it was only a Level 1 skill, he had gathered all his skills together, and the power was not small. When he slashed down, the black serpent’s tail stinger was cut neatly.

Fran held the tail stinger in his hand. It had to be said that this naturally formed stinger was even more perfect than a craftsman’s! He used the stinger to cut open the snake’s abdomen and successfully peeled off a complete piece of black serpent’s skin.

Since he didn’t have the tools when he entered the secret realm, he could only wrap the snakeskin around his waist. When he patted it, it would make a ‘ka ka’ sound.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered that the book had recorded that snake galls could be used in medicine. He did not know if the black serpent’s gallbladder could be used to concoct any potions.

After hesitating, he still went over and cut out the snake gallbladder. He would give it to Fatty to see if he could do anything about it. After all, this thing could only play its greatest role in the hands of a healer.

After taking away all the useful things, he used the fireballs to burn the black serpent’s body.

This monster was also a type of monster that lived in groups. If its companions sensed its corpse, he would probably not be able to leave this secret realm later.

After the black serpent’s corpse was completely burnt to ashes, Fran found a relatively safe place and used earth spike to move the terrain around him before taking out all the loot.

He had obtained a complete snakeskin, a tail stinger, and a snake gall from the black serpent.

The snake skin and tail should be able to sell for a good price. As for the snake gall, he would go back and ask Fatty first. If he couldn’t use it, he would sell it!

Looking at the spoils of war before him, Fran’s heart couldn’t help but be filled with hope.

The loot from an elite monster was already enough for him to live for a month. If he encountered a few more elite monsters, his family’s situation would definitely improve.

Then, he would buy a suitable iron sword for Flora. He didn’t want Flora to be like him in the past, where he didn’t have the weapons that other students’ parents bought.

However, back then, he had not been able to change his profession, so it would be useless no matter how many weapons he bought.

However, Flora was different. She was already a swordsman, so she needed a handy weapon. In the future, she might be able to get outstanding results in various major examinations.

Thinking of this, Fran happily put away the spoils of war on the ground and continued walking.

Although he had successfully killed a black serpent, it had been in a state of hunger, and its strength had been reduced. That was why he had been able to kill it.

If he had encountered a healthy black serpent, it would not have been so easy for him to deal with it. However, he was thinking that it would be great if he could come to the secret realm more often. There were really good things everywhere!

If he encountered some weapons that were easier to forge, he would send them directly to his parents and ask them to pay some processing fees to the town’s craftsmen to forge them a good weapon.

He would exchange the rest of the stuff for money. When he had enough money, he could buy a house for his parents in the city. In the future, they wouldn’t have to squeeze in the broken and dilapidated slums and suffer the disdainful gazes of others!

Thinking of this, Fran couldn’t help but quicken his pace, wishing he could meet the next monster.

Along the way, it was unusually quiet. Occasionally, he would hear some noises in the forest, but when he turned around, there was nothing.

Professor Frost had said that there were many unknown dangers in the secret realm. Other than monsters, there were also some mutated plants, and even some high-quality ores might be dangerous.

Fran walked while paying attention to the surrounding trees, afraid that they would attack him.

However, after walking for about 20 minutes, he didn’t encounter a single monster along the way, not even a low-level monster.

He felt that it was a little strange. It shouldn’t be. Other than the black serpent that he had encountered after entering, why didn’t he see any other monsters?

Was he going to wait until night time for the monsters to come out? Fran shook his head. If they only came out at night, why would so many come in during the day?

Perhaps he was walking in the wrong direction? However, this was the only path they could take, so they shouldn’t have taken the wrong one. After thinking about it, Fran continued forward, and after walking for another two or three minutes, a fork appeared in front of him.

This fork had been blocked by the dense grass, as if no one had passed here for a long time. Fran was somewhat at a loss. He seemed to have a strong interest in these unknown things.

He had been walking on the main road for a long time, but he had not encountered a single monster. He wondered if the monsters were in the forest. However, this path was very eerie, and it made people feel a chill.

After hesitating, Fran still decided to head towards the small path. It had indeed been a long time since anyone had walked on this path. The weeds were as tall as Fran’s chest, and he couldn’t see the situation in front of him.

But the deeper he went, the more Fran felt his heart beat. Suddenly, the weeds in front of him moved.
