The Annihilator: Killer Of Gods-Chapter 249: Fighting His First Calamity Mutant

Slash, Thud

A huge lizard’s head thudded to the ground. Karsha looked at it and smiled. It was the head of a Tier 7 Terror Mutant Earthen Lizard, one of the many he had slain in the past few hours.

For the past ten hours, Karsha had been grinding away on the mountain, killing thousands of monsters. He had fought nonstop, dispatching the mutants as if they were mere insects.

In truth, Karsha could have easily taken down the Overlords if he had started the battles with the strength he gained from absorbing the Soul Ring. Even though he hadn’t caught up to the Overlords in stats and attack power, he was still far more lethal than they were.

Without using a single technique, he had killed a Tier 7 Terror Mutant with just his sword. To him, the monsters were like bugs. He hadn’t unleashed his golden aura or sword qi, yet he had dominated the Terror Mutants effortlessly as if they were nothing more than pests.

In just ten hours, Karsha had climbed from a ranking of 905 to 53, amassing 4,000,600 points. He had been killing monsters relentlessly, but it was clear that others were doing the same. Ahead of him were all Core disciples and his women. Out of the 1,204 disciples who entered the Blood Forest, 217 were Core disciples.

These Core disciples were all Sages in the late level, with a few even at the peak of the late stage, currently forming their path.

Once they completed this formation, they would break through and receive the heavens’ blessing through the heavenly baptism of lightning. This breakthrough would turn them into powerhouses that the Kingdom could rely on.

However, Karsha, just a mere Grandmaster, three realms below these bona fide Core disciples, had beaten hundreds to secure his spot at rank 53.

It was almost embarrassing, to say the least. Among the 42 ahead of him, Li Fei sat at number one with 10,580,000 points, and Li Jing held the second spot with 8,600,000 points.

June held the fifth spot with 7,300,500 points. However, Karsha was shocked when he saw who occupied the ninth and tenth spots.

He had expected impressive performances, but not this quick. In the ninth spot was Xian with 6,600,000 points, and Mei Lin held the tenth with 6,100,000 points. Karsha was taken aback by their sudden boost.

"Where have these ladies been farming their points? And more importantly, what is that guy up to?" Karsha wasn’t envious, just shocked and senseless looking at the positions his people held at the moment.

The remaining spots were occupied by other Core disciples. Five were from the Sunlight Sword Sect, while the others were from various other sects.

"I guess these ladies are more powerful than I gave them credit for," Karsha sighed, then began moving deeper into the forest. Since his friend and women were doing well, he could relax and continue his hunt.

A day had already passed, meaning he had 13 more days to go. The faster he formed his second core, the higher his chances of doing well in the inner area of the forest, where Tier 8 and above monsters awaited.

ROAR!

Just as Karsha was about to leap over a three-meter-tall stone, a powerful roar echoed through the forest, and a terrifying aura descended, threatening to press him down.

For a moment, Karsha felt restricted, but something within him awakened filling him with energy. Without even needing to unleash his own aura to block it, the oppressive force vanished instantly.

Karsha was taken aback, but he didn’t dwell on it. As he jumped over the stone boulder, he saw the source of the overwhelming pressure.

In front of him stood a 30-meter-long dark-scaled lizard, its body about two meters wide. It reared up on its hind legs, glaring at Karsha. He gulped, staring at the terrifying sight.

Karsha quickly checked the stats.

"Damn, this monster is strong," he muttered, gulping but not panicking. He stared at the monster for a few seconds before pouncing at it. He appeared before the lizard almost instantly, thrusting his sword forward.

The lizard’s body vibrated, and a powerful aura erupted from it. Karsha caught off guard, was sent flying.

Karsha tumbled through the air, quickly regaining his balance and landing on his feet. He tightened his grip on his sword, his eyes narrowing as he analyzed the lizard’s movements. The dark-scaled beast charged at him with surprising speed, its massive claws aiming to rend him apart.

Karsha sidestepped the first swipe and swung his sword, aiming for the lizard’s exposed flank. His blade met resistance as it clashed against the lizard’s tough scales, but he pressed on, channeling his strength into the attack. The lizard roared in pain and fury, twisting its body to lash out with its tail.

The tail struck Karsha with the force of a battering ram, sending him skidding across the ground. He rolled to his feet, barely dodging a follow-up strike.

"Alright, time to get serious," he muttered, his golden aura flaring to life around him.

He didn’t release too much aura, but the little he unleashed made the monster falter. Karsha sprang into action, unleashing a flurry of attacks as if there were no tomorrow.

With each strike, his sword moved faster and more precisely. The dark-scaled lizard struggled to keep up, its massive claws and teeth barely able to counter his relentless onslaught.

Karsha’s movements were a blur, each swing of his sword landing with pinpoint accuracy on the beast’s weak points.

The lizard roared in frustration, trying to swipe at Karsha with its claws, but he deftly dodged, sidestepping and counterattacking with blinding speed.

He aimed for the creature’s joints and vulnerable underbelly, knowing these areas were less protected by its tough scales.

The lizard attempted to rear up on its hind legs, its powerful tail sweeping toward Karsha. Anticipating the move, Karsha vaulted over the tail, his sword trailing a gleaming arc through the air. He brought his blade down with all his might, cutting deep into the lizard’s back.

A powerful blast of aura erupted from the lizard as it roared in pain, its body vibrating like a massage chair. The strange energy coming from it pushed Karsha back again but he landed firmly on the ground. His eyes narrowed as he gazed at the colossal body of the lizard now littered with wounds.

With a burst of speed, Karsha closed the distance between them, his sword glowing with a fierce golden light. He laced his sword with his Golden aura.

He unleashed a series of rapid slashes, each strike aiming for a weak point in the lizard’s defenses. The beast roared, its scales beginning to crack under the relentless assault.

After a few more attacks, Karsha was once more pushed back by the strange vibration from the Lizard’s body. Seeing it has gained a foothold, the lizard retaliated with a blast of scorching breath, forcing Karsha to leap back, narrowly evading it.

He landed on a nearby boulder, panting slightly but undeterred. "This motherfucker is Godzilla" Karsha muttered.

Summoning his sword qi and fire essence into his blade, Karsha channeled them into a powerful strike, sending a blazing arc slicing through the air.

The fiery beam struck the lizard squarely in the chest, shattering its scales and causing it to stagger. Karsha seized the opportunity, dashing forward. As he neared the lizard, he leaped into the air, driving his sword deep into the beast’s heart.

Without wasting a moment, Karsha channeled his ice energy into the sword, instantly freezing the lizard’s heart. The creature let out a final, anguished roar before collapsing to the ground, lifeless. Karsha landed gracefully beside it, his expression, calm like water.

"That was easier than I thought," Karsha remarked, studying his sword with a strange expression.

The fire beam attack had used less than 5% of his essence, yet it had dispatched the Calamity Mutant effortlessly. His affinity for the fire element seemed to enhance his attacks significantly. Discover hidden stories at novelbuddy

Even more surprising was the power of the Enigma sword. Karsha swung it casually, expecting a moderate effect, but the unleashed attack was several times stronger than anticipated.

"Good thing I tested this on a monster instead of a human," he mused aloud. If he managed to farm 20 million points, he planned to participate in the Sect tournament. Had he not tested the sword now, using it during the tournament could have inadvertently resulted in a fatal mistake.

<You have killed a Tier 7 Calamity Mutant called Dark Scale Earthern Lizard. You have earned 1,000,00 Points >

After extracting the blood, Karsha picked up the core of the monster. "Wow, this core contains an incredible amount of Fire energy," he exclaimed, marveling at its size. "System, any explanation?" he asked.

"The elemental essence of a monster is stored in its core when it reaches Calamity Mutant status," the system responded. "This prepares them for a higher chance of becoming a World Boss once they reach Tier 9."

"So this only happens for Calamity mutants?" Karsha sought clarification.

< Yes. When a monster becomes a Calamity Mutant, it takes ten times the effort to break through to the next Tier. Most mutants who ascend to Tier Tier 9 from the Terror level have almost no chance of breaking through to the World Boss Class. Storing elemental essence in their core increases their chances of becoming a World Boss.>

"Great, I need more of this. With these cores, I can finally increase my affinity for Wind, Water, Darkness, and Earth elements," Karsha said, storing the core in his space ring before continuing deeper into the forest. Soon, he encountered his second Calamity Mutant, a sight that made him grin from ear to ear.
