#12 - Section 12
This time, Allen was prepared to completely resolve the issue of rampant beasts here.
Using the corpses and bloody scent of the beasts to attract even more beasts.
This saved Allen and the others a lot of effort.
In the better part of a day, more than a dozen beast corpses lay here.
Allen estimated that this had more or less cleared out a large portion of them.
This mountain wasn't particularly large to begin with, and the number of beasts inside was also limited.
Just when Allen thought it was almost done, a huge wild boar with a violent aura all over its body came down from the mountain.
The wild boar's sharp tusks and rough skin made it look extremely difficult to provoke.
At the same time, its size was almost twice that of an ordinary wild boar!
"A magical beast?!"
Allen was slightly surprised. He could feel wisps of magic power enveloping this wild boar, and he also saw a cunning look flashing in the wild boar's eyes.
This was a magical beast that already possessed a certain level of intelligence!
The magical beast quickly sensed that this was a trap, and it rationally didn't take another step forward.
However, it didn't leave either, but instead began circling around.
It seems this guy knows there's an ambush here, but at the same time, it's unwilling to give up.
It seems it's very confident in its own strength.
Allen watched for a while, then suddenly chuckled: "These beasts aren't for you, you animal, to eat."
He directly appeared in front of the wild boar, holding a sharp knight's sword in his hand.
"Hmph! Hmph!"
The wild boar snorted twice, its eyes sizing up Allen, a hint of disdain flashing in its eyes.
In its opinion, this young human couldn't possibly be a human powerhouse. It estimated that it could kill this small body with a single charge.
"Heh heh, you fool, come on, today I have to taste what the meat of a magical beast is like!"
Allen smiled faintly.
The wild boar already possessed a certain level of intelligence, and it roughly understood Allen's meaning. Immediately, this wild boar magical beast was filled with anger and charged directly towards Allen.
"Stupid!"
Allen circulated his battle aura slightly. With the blessing of the battle aura, his speed was extremely fast, instantly dodging the wild boar's attack. At the same time, he flipped his hand and struck the wild boar's body directly with his sword.
Even with the use of battle aura, Allen felt a great resistance when striking the wild boar.
You must know that the sword energy formed by his battle aura release was enough to cut iron like mud, but he felt extremely strenuous on this wild boar magical beast.
"This wild boar is really thick-skinned!"
Allen was slightly surprised, and at the same time, he became serious.
"Roar hmph!"
The wild boar was injured by Allen's sword. Although it was a magical beast, and belonged to the type of magical beast with good defense, it would still be injured by a fifth-level knight's sword.
Streaks of scarlet blood flowed out from the wound.
The wild boar's eyes immediately turned red. The pain from the wound caused it to instantly lose its mind, and at the same time, magic power began to surge around its entire body.
Allen perked up. He knew that in addition to having powerful attack power, magical beasts could also release magic!
Magic was a powerful and strange means of attack.
Allen had once come into contact with mages and knew the power of magic.
"Boom!"
Just as Allen was on guard, countless vines suddenly appeared in the forest beside him, entangling him.
At the same time, the wild boar magical beast began to aim its tusks at Allen, preparing to stab him to death.
"Lord!"
The warriors in the distance were shocked and rushed up quickly, trying to rescue Allen.
"Don't panic!"
Allen's calm voice sounded. Having lived two lives, he wouldn't be defeated by this little difficulty.
He saw his whole body erupt with battle aura, and the majestic battle aura shattered all the vines that were wrapped around him.
Then, he flashed to the side, dodging the wild boar's charge, and wrapped his battle aura around his long sword, forcefully slashing it down on the wild boar's neck.
"Slash!"
This time was different from the previous casual counterattack. This time, Allen used his full strength.
Even the wild boar's thick skin couldn't stop the sharpness of Allen's long sword!
As the sword fell, Allen directly chopped off the wild boar's head!
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for defeating a level three magical beast! You have gained 300 experience points!"
A prompt sounded in Allen's mind.
"Ding, congratulations, Host, for unlocking the magical species, Vine Pig! You have obtained a biological card, Vine Pig * 10!"
Chapter 19 Activating Biological Cards, The Crisis Two Weeks Later (2 Seeking Flowers, Seeking Evaluation Tickets, Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
The Vine Pig was probably the most powerful magical beast here. In the next two days, Allen and his group never encountered any powerful magical beasts again.
Soon they had completely cleared out the surrounding beasts.
"Ding, congratulations, Host, for completing the side quest, Slaughtering Beasts (II), you have gained 3,000 experience points!"
At this moment, his experience points were 6700 / 10000, still more than 3,000 experience points away from 10,000 experience points.
Even if he completed the side quest of the commercial road, he would still be 300 experience points short.
It seemed that he could either only complete the main quest, or he would have to trigger other side quests. However, Allen had also discovered before that killing magical beasts seemed to also grant experience points.
It seemed that there were still many ways to become stronger.
Allen smiled slightly.
He led his men down the mountain quickly to meet Marco. Afterwards, Allen had Marco take his men back to Rose Town.
As for himself, after Marco and his men left, he returned to the mountain again.
"Beasts and magical beasts, these things can't be completely wiped out. If they aren't managed, it won't be long before even more beasts take over here."
Allen walked on the mountain road until he reached the top of the mountain before he stopped.
He looked into the distance, towards the world to the north, which was the territory of the Thorns Flower family.
"It won't be long before I return again. When that time comes, those who once laughed at me and insulted me will all kneel on the ground to welcome my arrival."
A glint flashed in Allen's eyes. At the same time, he waved his hand, and a biological card appeared.
It was none other than the Vine Pig biological card that he had just obtained recently.
"Activate the biological card."
Allen said faintly.
Soon the biological card disappeared, replaced by ten huge Vine Pigs.
Unlike the previous magical beast that was full of disdain and killing intent.
After these ten magical beasts appeared, they were extremely affectionate towards Allen.
"You help me guard these three mountains here and don't allow any beasts to run rampant here."
Allen said faintly.
The ten Vine Pigs immediately nodded at Allen to indicate that they understood.
Since the beasts couldn't be completely cleared out, then he would place ten powerful magical beasts here to help him manage these three mountains!
Completely resolving the beast problem, in this way, the commercial road would be worry-free.
After dismissing the ten magical beasts, Allen went down the mountain, rode his horse back to Rose Town.
The matter of the commercial road couldn't be resolved overnight, and there was no need to rush it.
What Allen was currently most concerned about was the updated main quest.
In fact, after Allen completed the task of training warriors before, the system had already released a new task.
"Task: Enemies on the Sea! As an excellent lord, you have developed your territory extremely well, and are even about to open up the commercial road."
"However, because of the two Spirits of Nature, coupled with the fact that there isn't much military strength in the territory, it has ultimately attracted the prying eyes of those with ulterior motives!"
"Two weeks later, they will appear from the sea! Perhaps they are pirates, perhaps other identities, as the lord, you must defeat them!"
"Task Reward: 3,000 experience points, 30,000 gold coins!"
"Ding! Discovered side quest: Traitor!"
"Someone has betrayed you, leaking the news of the two Spirits of Nature, attracting some attention from the sea. Find the traitor and execute him!"
"Task Reward: 500 experience points."
Riding his horse, Allen carefully examined the new task while returning to Rose Town.
Returning to the castle, Allen took a hot bath and had people skin all the prey that had been killed these days and cut it into pieces of meat.
The warriors under his command each received some meat, which was completely the most extravagant food for them.
As for the beast skins and the like, Allen had people peel them off as completely as possible. These things could be taken out to contact others, and it would be an income anyway.
After rewarding the warriors, Allen himself also ate a lot of roast meat.
Since becoming a knight, he had been eating more and more each time, especially meat, which he liked very much.
After all, knights need to consume a lot of energy, so eating more to replenish it was normal.
After eating his fill, Allen didn't forget his Spirits of Nature and young dragon.
He first went to the Spirits of Nature's room and fed Amy and Terra until they were full. Watching the two little guys lying on the soft little bed he had prepared for them, their bellies bulging, Allen then gently left.
