Amon, The Legendary Overlord Chapter 55.2: Mysterious Kingdom

After they got far enough away, the girls finally managed to breathe. Their hearts were pounding.

Even Ariel felt scared at that moment.

Suddenly, Amon said, "Stop."

The girls stopped walking, still breathless, as they had just run too fast and for a long distance.

Amon was breathing unsteadily as he looked in a certain direction; that's when a Lion appeared.

Just then, a thunderous sound came. A tall lion measuring over 180 cm, whose body was burning with flames, appeared. He is outraged when faced with his enemy.

"Flame Lion?!" Barbara identified it at the exact moment she saw it.

A Flame Lion has tasty meat, but it's very difficult to cook. Her mother has been practicing to develop the skill to prepare Flame Lion meat, and because of that, Barbara, who was a 'victim' of her mother's practice, knew that this was a Flame Lion.

The Flame Lion roared in rage at the sight of Amon and the girls and then flung his body right at them. But, without even getting close to them, he's already widened his mouth, then a massive ball of fire was launched at them.

"Let me handle it." Barbara took a step forward.

Her hands began to show genetic veins, and as soon as she reached out, the massive fireball crashed into her hands. But instead of burning or even hurting her, the fireball began to be sucked into her as if she was a vacuum cleaner.

Barbara smiled, and, in her hands, blue flames appeared.

The Flame Lion was surprised to see what Barbara had done and was cautious when it saw that she was about to attack.

Outside the mysterious realm, guests from Golden Phoenix University, as well as some high-ranking people, were watching what was going on.

They started talking when they saw that Amon's group would face an animal with 40 genetic unlocks.

"Oh?"

Barbara's move to stop the Flame Lion's attack was a little surprising.

"Blue flames, not common." The town mayor muttered.

The city mayor's acquaintances nodded since they were also curious about Amon's group.

Soon the blue fireball hit the Flame Lion hard.

When the dust curtain came off, they were able to see the Lion of Flame again.

He was covered in burns.

Moments later, Barbara looks at Amon and then at the Lion of Flame.

"Kill it!"

The Flame Lion has just realized its situation.

However, it was too late.

He was seriously injured and couldn't concentrate properly.

Barbara approached him.

She struck the Flame Lion's head with one hand, and a violent power surged, crushing the Flame Lion's head.

The Flame Lion died like that.

Many were impressed by what they saw.

The young man, who felt all-powerful, snorted in disdain. 'At my university, this level of power is easily found in even the most mediocre students.'

After Barbara has finished killing, Amon looks at the girls, "There must be more animals not far from here."

Hearing this, Ariel and the girls rejoiced. "Shall we leave then?"

"Mm." Amon nodded indifferently and led the way.

As they walked, suddenly, a flying snake leaped toward them, opening its mouth wide, intending to swallow Amon entirely.

Amon's eyes turned cold, and the indifference around him only increased. Then, pointing his left index finger, the veins in his arms started to glow, and the lightning genes passed through the veins like water passing through a faucet until it reached his index finger and a lightning bolt as thick as a straw came out. Still, no matter how thin it was, it was incredibly fast and powerful.

*Whoosh!*

The girls only heard the sound of a fast-moving object, and then the flying snake's head exploded.

Outside the mysterious realm, the man who acted all pompous widened his big eyes as if seeing the most unexpected thing in the world. 'This can't be real...'

The others didn't see anything different, although they agreed that he was very strong and skillful. Other than that, they didn't feel anything out of the ordinary in Amon's attack.

Flávia saw his reaction and her eyes got even colder.

Amon held the snake and asked, "Is this good to eat?"

They had been walking for some time, and, if at all possible, eating was not a bad idea.

"I don't have the confidence to prepare it." Barbara looks at the snake, "This snake is not very poisonous, but I don't know how to get the poison out."

Amon felt a little disappointed. But then he said, "Let's continue then."

It wasn't like it was the only animal here; there could be a rabbit, or wild chicken, even a wild pig?

Amon stopped walking again.

In front of them, there was a gray colored worm.

*Bang!*

The surrounding sand flew towards them.

With the appearance of the sand, the gray worm disappeared.

*ZzzZzzZZzzz!*

Amon's cold eyes narrowed, and he lunged forward just as lightning erupted in his right hand.

A shock wave spread in all directions.

A figure fell back.

It was the gray worm.

It was crushed to the ground. And, just as it was planning to get up, Amon appeared and grabbed the worm.

Immediately, the sand formed a ball around the worm.

The ball gleamed with genetic sand and shook as it continually shrunk.

Moments later, the ball stopped rattling.

The ball of sand dissipated as a body, curled into a ball, slowly dropped.

"Want to eat this?" Soon after, Amon turned and asked the girls while pointing to the gray worm.

Like a rattle, the girls shook their heads hard in denial.

"Is that so?" Amon didn't mind as they didn't want to and continued walking. But he suddenly turned around, "Oh yes, next one of you should fight since all of us need points."
