Talent Swallowing Hero

In the hall, there were thousands of small transparent balls.

Each of these transparent balls was filled with liquid, and hundreds of particle-sized insects floated around in it.

‘These are all….eggs, right?’

Looking at the information sent by the system regarding those transparent balls filled with liquid and insects, Leo was shocked at first.

However, in the next second, he had thought of something making him hopeful.

‘From the looks of it, they look very much alive. If I destroy them, I wonder whether they can be counted into the mission [Spider Killer].’

[Absolute Devour]

Without wasting any time, Leo summoned the devil’s mouth and causally devoured five eggs around the size of a football within no time.

‘Ding,

The host killed and devoured 623 water spiders.

‘Ding,

No [Promote Points] gained.

‘Ding,

No new Talents or Skills are awakened.

Soon, a series of system notifications rang in Leo’s head, making him shake his head in disappointment.

‘As I expected, it is useless.’

Even though he was already expecting that it was useless to devour the spider eggs, he wanted to confirm it, and he confirmed it.

‘Ding,

The host completed the second target in the mission [Spider Killer]._-.

‘Ding,

Kill 500 water spiders (Completed).

‘Ding,

The host can pick one of the following rewards:

1) 1.5 percent of potential increase for level 9 [Call of the Undead].

2) 15 percent of potential increase for level 8 [Mighty Combustion].

‘What?’

Just as he thought devouring the spider eggs was useless, he received a series of system notifications that pleasantly surprised him.

‘So what if I don’t get [Promote points] or awaken any new talents or skills? I am happy I can get something out of these eggs.’

Suppressing his excitement, Leo checked out the two rewards, from which he could only pick one.

‘Even though the percent of the potential increment has increased, the talent changed from [Space Manipulation] to [Mighty Combustion].’

Leo was hoping to upgrade his [Space Manipulation] to level 9; however, he didn’t expect that the talent had changed.

‘Nevertheless, I don’t mind upgrading the [Mighty Combustion] to level 9.’

Without thinking much, Leo picked the second option before leaving Level 9 [Call of the Undead].

‘Ding,

Mighty Combustion (level 8), Potential (20/100).

Compared to [Space Manipuation], Leo used [Mighty Combustion] relatively less. So, even with the 15 percent increase in its potential, the [Mighty Combustion] still has less potential.

‘Ding,

Do you want to continue the mission ‘Spider Killer’ or abort the mission?

‘Why would I stop the mission when I have so many eggs around me?’

Leo chuckled as he looked at thousands of eggs around him, and there were more than a hundred small spiders in each egg.

If Leo could devour all the eggs, he might be killing around one million water spiders or even more.

‘Who would have thought that the purple-striped waster spider would be so nice to imprison me in this hall.’

With a slight smile, Leo thanked the purple-striped water spider before saying, ‘It’s devouring time.’

‘Ding,

The host devoured and killed 100 water spiders.

‘Ding,

The host…

‘Ding,

The…

Leo devoured one egg after another as the system notifications rang in his head.

He only stopped when he received the system notifications related to the mission.

‘Ding,

The host completed the third target in the mission [Spider Killer].

‘Ding,

Kill 1000 water spiders (Completed).

‘Ding,

The host can pick one of the following rewards:

1) 2 percent of potential increase for level 9 [Call of the Undead].

2) 20 percent of potential increase for level 8 [Space Manipulation].

‘[Space Manipulation] is back.’

Leo was excited to look at the two options because his favourite talent was back and, without hesitation, picked it.

‘Ding,

Space Manipulation (level 8), Potential (41/100).

‘I am already halfway into level 8. Let’s not waste any time.’

Looking at the 20 percent increase in the [Space Manipulation] only gave him more motivation to devour more water spider eggs.

….

In the Emberfields,

Emberfields is the territory of the Flaming Lions, and currently, the entire Emberfields is turned upside down because of the fact that their Heir has gone missing for half a day now.

“Roar”

A heaven-defying roar resounded in the entire Emberfield, followed by a majestic voice, “Find the Heir even if we have to destroy the other three regions or sweep the entire wilderness.”

‘Roar’

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

The rank 9 flaming lions roared back in response before following their Supreme-ranked Generals and Captains.

‘Screech’

‘Moo’

‘Tik tik’

Before these flaming lions could leave their territory, they saw the other three rulers of the Beastnet were waiting for them along with their minions.

“Everyone, step back.”

Even though the flaming lions were proud, the supreme-ranked flaming lions didn’t mind taking a step back and waiting for the orders from their King.

“Fury, we have enough of your domination in the Beastnet. It is time for you to meet your end.”

Among the four rulers of the Beastnet, if the ‘Flaming Lion King’ was the strongest one, then the ‘Mother of the Water Spiders’ was the second strongest and the leader of the triad.

Therefore, it spoke on behalf of the three beast rulers.

“If you give my son back, I will overlook your rudeness and let you and your minions live in this Beastnet.”

In the next moment, a majestic voice resounded from the depths of the Emberfields as a 10-meter huge flaming lion that emitted bright red-coloured flames appeared in everyone’s view.

“Good. Since you already found out that we have your son, then it saves us the trouble of explaining it.”

The Terra Bull Tyrant scoffed at the Flaming Lion King.

“Fury, if you kill yourself, we will let you son and your entire race live. So, choose what you want to do.”

The third beast ruler Zephyr Gaint Eagle also warned the Lion King, asking him to commit suicide.

“Haha…do you think I am a fool to believe those words?”

Fury, the Flaming Lion King, chuckled at their words and said, “The moment I disappear, my entire race will be eliminated. So, be it, if you want to kill my son, then go ahead and kill. I will ensure no one from the three beast races survives in the Beastnet.”

As soon as he finished his words, Fury released fiery flames, and the three beast rulers unconsciously took a step back as they felt the flames around the Heavenly Lion King had become even more powerful than the last time they fought.

“He became a level 9 Supreme rank beast hero.”

Only when the Flaming Lion King released his flames, they realized that he had a breakthrough in his strength.

“There is no need to fear him. If we work together, we can easily defeat and kill him.”

Mother of the Water Spiders hurriedly suppressed the fear inside her heart and encouraged the other two beast rulers to work together.

“Yes, We can kill him.”

“Let’s go.”

“Everyone, don’t let a single flaming lion live.”

Soon, the three beast rulers ordered their minions as they rushed toward the Flaming Lion King.

“Sutin, Riseth, and Nora, I will make you regret messing with me…roar.”

Fury roared at the three incoming bestial rulers and rushed towards them along with all the flaming lions.

….
