Omega Summoner

Chapter 498: I Really Hate the Jungle

After defeating the Vorpal Rabbit, Adrian rested as he has burned too much stamina just by battling one enemy. Given that the enemy is higher level than them, he is not happy that his stamina is dropping like crazy just from one fight.

”I really hate the jungle. Can they not make a civilization that is like high tech and all? I mean the gnome kingdom seems to be advanced despite their steampunk theme.” Adrian grumbled as he slumped down and remembered that he got a system notification about his newly invented Scribe technique.

[You have successfully created a new Scribe Technique.]

[Do you want to name your own Scribe Technique?]

”I shall name it Mana Body Imprinting.” Adrian stated.

[Do you wish to name the technique that you created as ʼMana Body Imprinting? Yes or No?]

”Yes.” Adrian answered and he suddenly felt his body becoming lighter.

[You have created a new technique in Scribe history. Your technique will be written automatically in your journal.]

[If you publish your written technique then other Scribes might want to ask you about it.]

[You have become an Intermediate Scribe Level 3 from Beginner Scribe Level 9.]

[Your passive Magic Penetration has increased from 5% to 10%.]

[Your Max Cooldown has been increased from 40% to 50%.]

[Your talisman success rate has increased permanently by 10% due to your technique creation.]

Adrian smiled as he read out the system notifications that he has been given. He did not think that the bottleneck that he could not get over would be lifted by perfecting his technique.

He thought why his Scribe mastery did not level up when he tried it with rocks but now, he knew that success should be guaranteed for it to happen. He even jumped straight towards the Intermediate Scribe Level 3 mastery.

He would have celebrated if the area is not inside the jungle that he hates with his guts. Adrian could do nothing but try and create talismans while waiting for his stamina to recover. He tried eating food but even food only recovered half the stamina that he usually gets from eating.

”Is this the reason why the King of the Selvaggian race wants to return to the main world? Then again, the Selvaggian race is not really together as the Hydromorph species remained in the main world while the others fled here.” Adrian thought as he kept creating talismans for sale.

Piggy Bank told him that the Guild Creation Emblem is successfully in the process of trade. He only needs for the other party to bring him the item. Adrianʼs plan of creating a guild unaffiliated with a kingdom is right before him.

Adrian wanted to meet the Selvaggian race in order to guide them to the wolvesʼ den, but he brushed that idea away. The Daemos elders did tell him that not all of the Selvaggian are following the current king for generations.

Different needs have pushed the Selvaggian race apart but that did not mean they went to war with each other. Some just wants to live in peace without being bothered by leaders while some are just a rowdy bunch.

The King of the Selvaggian race has always been the Lion Beastkins but that does not mean they are the strongest. The Lion beastkins are just one of the Terramorph species that are powerful. Other Terramorph beastkins on par with the lion beastkins are the Rhino Beastkins with their tough defense and the fox beastkins that use mystic arts.

The hydromorph species of the Selvaggians did not come with the other two species as the ocean in the main world is for them to conquer since time immemorial. The strongest of the hydromorphs are the Whale Beastkins. They are the kings of the ocean as no other hydromorph could be as powerful as them.

The Aeromorph beastkins are those that can fly and is also vying for the leader of the whole race. The strongest of their species is the Albatross beastkins for their large bodies and the eagle beastkins for their ferocity.

The unrest of the Selvaggians is tied to them loosing their racial treasure on par with the Eye of Origin with the Daemos Race. The king of the Selvaggian race is making a deal with the Daemos elders in order to get aide in finding the Will of The Wilde.

A special item that helps restores the strength of the Selvaggian race and help them propagate. The Selvaggians have noticed that their current world is becoming unstable. There are more of them dying than being born due to the decrease in birth rate.

Ascalor also told Adrian that it seems that there is a race for searching their treasure. It is said that whoever finds the Will of The Wilde then they would be hailed as the new king. Then again, it is better than them killing each other for the spot for being king.

”If I encounter the Selvaggian race then I just wish it is the weaker ones as they tend to be wary. They might also help me if I trade them the Vorpal Rabbit meat. They are having trouble in hunting in the area after all.” Adrian muttered to himself as he completed the talisman he is making.

The Selvaggians operate with the motto of ʼSurvival of the Fittestʼ. The good thing is that they can become strong faster but there is always a downside. The weakest species will become overshadowed by the others which made some beastkin species become extinct.

It is only about five hundred years ago that the Selvaggian King decided to protect the weak ones. This is also the time some beastkin species walked away from the rule of the king. They thought that it is only the strongest that need to survive and walked away.

Some that walked away managed to survive but the majority became prey to The Wilde. The already declining Selvaggian race shrunk even more. This made it all the more reason for the weaker species band together and train more in order to survive. They feared that their leaders will throw them away.

”The Survival of the Fittest motto might have been a great motto if they are better than their surroundings. If the world they are in is not something like a living death trap.” Adrian stated as he rose up and started to move once more.

Sirius with the help of Kimat is now surveying the surroundings. The elemental catʼs relaxed attitude became fierce and wary due to his surroundings. Dodu just shrunk and is relaxing on Adrianʼs shoulder since it moves so slow.

Adrian is moving with his soulbounds when he suddenly heard numerous rustling noise from the grass before him. He did not call out and just let lose an arrow. If he hit a Selvaggian then he would just say sorry after the deed.

The arrow successfully hit something and a loud shriek that is like that of a pig is heard. The loud shriek also created a chain reaction as numerous pig shrieks is heard in the area. The rustling grass suddenly increased their vibrations.

The sound of a stampede could then be heard as numerous hooves is banging on the ground. Out from the rustling weeds is actually a large boar that is two meters in height. After the first large boar, another came and then another until Adrian became surrounded.

”Sirius go hide in my shadow. Kimat come to me and get on my other shoulder.” Adrian commanded via his soul link.

”Orionʼs Wrath” Adrian chanted as he jumped in the air and remained suspended there.

The stampeding large boars looked really fierce. Their tusks are bigger than Adrianʼs head and are extremely sharp. The tusk is not the only thing that made them look menacing as their bodies look full of muscle, but the downside is that they are not smart.

The large boars are not smart because one started a stampede without even looking for its offender. The mana arrow dissolved upon hitting the first large boar, so it did not leave an arrow in the boarʼs body. The stampede lasted for about a few minutes but that is not what made Adrian wary.

The trauma of activating the Orionʼs Wrath skill for the first time is now coming back to him. It seems that a flock of birds is circling above him as he is floating in mid-air. The birds might not be targeting him now but that would change if he did not have a weapon.

The circling birds reminded him of the thunderbird that killed him in one shot. He eyed the circling birds, and they did the same. It seems that one of the birds met its gaze with Adrian as they soon dispersed after having eye contact. Adrian thought that they got scared because he exuded the aura of a Daemos, but he is wrong.

The birds that dispersed came for Adrian in four different directions, but he can only fire three arrows.

”I really hate this world.” Adrian grumbled.
