Chapter 520: The Legendary Beast Hunter
Chapter 520: The Legendary Beast Hunter
Boom!!!
A terrifying explosion erupted behind Lindsey, the force of which was so powerful that it had nowhere to escape in the confined space. The blast surged towards him, pushing him forward and causing him to stumble and fall onto the giant whale's blowhole.
"The effect of the mixed explosives is this powerful?" Lindsey wondered as he followed the standard procedure and dropped to the ground.
In just a few seconds, the airflow from the elemental explosion continued to rage above him, tearing apart the clothes he had just changed into once again.
Immediately, a mixture of murky airflow, blood, and tissue fragments gushed out from the blowhole behind the giant beast.
Lindsey could still sense the movements of the abyssal whale.
He had no choice but to hold on tightly to the lung bubble in front of him, ready for whatever came next.
If this explosion failed to kill the giant whale, he was prepared to turn back and rush into the blast zone, ready to completely destroy the creature's body!
"Ugh—"
At that moment, a painful wail emanated from the abyssal whale's mouth.
Such a lethal strike had erupted from within, and it seemed like a fated outcome as the creature's heart sustained damage.
The whale's song, like a trombone blaring on the ocean's surface, carried with it a sense of sorrow as life withered away.
Simultaneously, the sky and sea changed colors above the ocean's surface.
Ocean Nemesis Krulu could manipulate oceanic disasters, and the abyssal whale also possessed the power to turn the seas upside down.
Now, as it made its final struggle, its massive body trembled violently, and its blowhole spewed out a massive amount of blood mist.
The nearby sea surface seemed to be drenched in a rain of blood.
Even some marine life began to approach, drawn by the scent.
The stone statues remaining on the abyssal whale's island witnessed the scene around them and immediately realized that Lindsey had kept his promise.
Just a few minutes had passed.
The giant beast, like an island in the sea, had truly been killed by Lindsey!
In the original pit, a stone statue still held the Bangbang Fish Hammer and continued to pound on the whale's back without any intention of stopping.
"..."
"Did he really succeed? Did he truly succeed?"
The stone statues reacted, shifting their focus to protect the petrified humans in the mountain valley.
However, this time was different. They watched as the petrified humans, including some Awakened individuals from Thousand Sails City, regained their mobility and rose from the ground.
"Where am I...?"
"Is this the Enchanting Dream? Who dared to cause trouble at the art festival? They must be tired of living!"
As the petrified people regained their ability to move, the Awakened individuals from Thousand Sails City were among them.
Immediately, the power of the Awakened ones manifested.
The turbulent sea surface around them instantly calmed under the influence of their songs, and the struggling body of the abyssal whale found rest.
On the other side, Lindsey slowly raised his gaze, illuminated by the soft light of the jellyfish.
He first looked at his Hunting Log.
Solara
Abyssal Beast - Stone Island
Length: ???
Weight: ???
Speed: ???
A massive creature that inhabits the ocean, known for its ability to petrify life and collect them on its back, forming an island-like structure.
The abyssal whale is an incredibly large creature with an almost indestructible self-healing ability. Its body is surrounded by a powerful petrification field, capable of instantly controlling its prey, making escape nearly impossible.
【Weakness: Heart.】
【Hunting Suggestion: The only way to defeat it is by destroying the heart.】
【Kill Achievement: 1/1】
"..."
The update to the 【Hunting Journal】 finally put Lindsey at ease.
He patted the lung bubbles beneath his feet.
As he stood up and felt around outside, he also managed to obtain the Abyssal Whale's prey material.
【Material: Whale Heart】
【After consumption, there's a chance to acquire the bloodline of the whale; it can also be used as a material to craft other items.】
【The heart of an oceanic beast, imbued with a dense earthy essence, is of high value.】
This time, he didn't need to check the synthesis list.
The 【Beast Heart】 synthesis series was also one of Lindsey's most desired goals.
Obtaining a 【Whale Heart】 was a highly satisfying outcome for him.
"【Beast Heart】, 【Dragon Heart】, 【Whale Heart】..."
"The only hearts I lack now are those of the Feathered Serpent and the Phoenix."
Lindsey stepped outside and soon arrived at the airway exit directly below the blowhole.
However, much to his disappointment, the blood gushing out of the Abyssal Whale as it died also swept away the rope he was hanging onto.
Facing the smooth passageway, now covered in countless blood-stained fragments, Lindsey frowned and drew his dagger, climbing upwards bit by bit, just as he had done at the intersection of worlds.
At the same time, he also claimed the corresponding reward from the 【Hunting Journal】.
【Beverage/Material: Whale Oil】
【A special type of whale oil. When ignited, it doesn't require oxygen and can burn for thousands of years in extreme environments; pouring it into the sea will quickly attract nearby whale-like creatures; it can also be used as a material to craft other items.】
【An achievement item and the best bait for whale hunters!】
"..."
Lindsey raised an eyebrow, realizing it was yet another item tailored for specific situations.
"But who would use this as fuel?"
He checked the synthesis formula.
【Whale Oil】 couldn't be consumed directly, but it was an extremely high-quality food material!
"How much will this level of material increase my attributes?"
As Lindsey pondered, he also climbed out of the Abyssal Whale's blowhole.
In the 【Hunting Journal】, the legendary beast kill achievement also met 3/3 of the requirements. He claimed the reward, and as the number behind it changed to 3/15, the corresponding gains appeared.
First was a title.
【Legendary Creature Hunter: Increases attack damage against legendary creatures and speeds up the collection of hunting information.】
Then, a rare item reward.
【Arrow: Dragon Slayer Black Arrow】
【A special arrow crafted for legendary beasts. It has the ability to penetrate most biological scales; when it hits the vital point of a legendary beast, it inflicts an 【Instant Death】-like damage effect.】
【An achievement item, its value unknown.】
Clang!
A heavy, metallic arrow landed in Lindsey's hand.
He looked down at it.
The 【Dragon Slayer Black Arrow】 had no decorations, only a spiral-shaped diamond-shaped hole at the arrowhead and tail.
Its sharp black surface exuded a chilling aura of slaughter.
"..."
"Should I find a Smaug to test its power?"
Lindsey happily accepted the achievement reward.
But before he could take further action, another surprise emerged.
Upon completing the 【Legendary Beast】 kill achievement, his attribute panel began to display new changes.
【Hunting Simulation Level: 6→7】
