Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

188 Part 2: Fighting against snake monster

(From MC's perspective)

This time, when the snake monster dashed towards me, I used a black dagger to counter attack. And when the snake monster inched closer towards me, it opened its fangs to bite me.

Seeing that, I moved at full speed. When the monster was inches away from me, I side stepped enough to avoid its frontal attack. At the same time, I gripped the dagger and made a vertical slash at the snake.

CLANG small metallic sound resonated when the blade touched the scales.

Seeing that, my expression hardened further. How am I supposed to fight this thing? The next second, I moved away from the spot without further ado.

Only after a certain distance from the snake monster, I turn back. Then I stared at the black dagger in my hands. I realised the problem lay with my dagger. It was a basic-quality product.

It's normal that I can't use it against this powerful monster. What to do? Without a proper weapon, I can't even cause an injury, forget about killing it.

SIGH

If I use the dagger again, it will shatter soon. I don't want to use my only weapon at this time. I'm starting to regret my lack of preparation. At least I should have bought life-saving items before coming here.

There is no medicine for regret. By this time, the snake monster had launched another round of attacks. Seeing that, I started to think about a suitable escape plan.

I vaguely noticed Monster's speed was beginning to slow down. It was not as agile as before. Obviously, previous consumption is starting to take a toll.

It would only make things worse if the snake monster continued to move with its huge abdomen. Then the stamina of the monster will continue to reduce.

My eyes gleamed with surprise as I thought about a suitable plan. When the snake monster's stamina reduces, I will use that opportunity to slip away from this place.

Time passes,

I continued to exert the gravitational field. But every time, I didn't fight the monster head on. My motive is to make the snake monster continue to move.

Every time the snake monster uses its speed to chase me, it slowly loses its stamina. And from time to time, I checked the Monster's current status.

And I noticed a significant drop in stamina points. But it didn't give me any sense of satisfaction. because my consumption also increased greatly. So it's impossible for me to continue to carry this fight.

So I decided to wait for the monster's stamina to drop further.

Time passes,

When I noticed the snake monster's stamina points dropped below 40, I immediately dispelled my gravity magic and escaped from this spot at full speed.

This sudden change caught the snake monster off guard. It wants to chase its human prey, but due to a drop in stamina. The snake monster couldn't move forward.

Finally, after seeing the disappearing back of its prey, the snake monster gave up the desire to chase and it rushed back to the bushes where it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, after fleeing some distance, I stopped running and looked backwards to see if there was any sign of the snake monster.

A few seconds later, "Phew!" I breathed in relief after seeing no trace of the monster. Then I found a suitable place nearby to sit and relax.

Sitting on the huge rock, I started to recall the fight with the snake monster. This little episode showed me the strength of the intermediate first order monster.

A quick glint flashes in my eyes.

I guess the snake monster's combat power was more or less similar to the top 3 wizards. I know about 3rd and 4th rank wizards. Their combat power might be lower compared to the snake monster.

But when it comes to 1st and 2nd rank. I'm not sure, but I have a vague feeling that they might be slightly stronger than the snake monster.

stronger than intermediate 1st order monsters. Which means their attributes might be higher than 50. This is just an assumption, but it's really terrifying to think it might be possible.

This thought alone made me realise the seriousness of this matter. I'm seriously underestimating the combat strength of the top 2 Wizards.

If the two wizards were really that strong, then their talent must have been at least top grade. At this time, I'm happy that I didn't voluntarily offend anyone.

I'll have to lay low for at least a few months. Unless my attributes reach above 40, I won't think about confronting the top 2 wizards.

After gaining some clarity in my thoughts, my heart eases down a little bit. Then I raised my head to see ahead.

A trace of apprehension appeared in my eyes.

Should I continue my plan or forfeit it? Obviously, my lack of preparation and my previous confrontation with a snake monster made me rethink my plans.

If I came across another similar monster, it would be difficult to escape. Considering my low mana reserve right now, I have to say it's an even harder time escaping alive.

SIGH

I let out a deep sigh. I never thought I would make an amateur mistake. After contemplating for a few minutes, I made a firm decision. I decided to drop my plan of visiting the wide plains.

I'm going to look for half order monsters and first order monsters below intermediate strength. At least in this way, I can collect enough crystal gems.

The next second, I started to make my way back to the edge. I decided to resume my hunt in the hilly ranges.

Time passes,

A few hours later, I reached the huge shade tree. which I had visited the previous time. After getting close, I couldn't help but take some rest under the shade of this large tree.

Then I looked at my spoils. Fortunately, I encountered a few half-ordered monsters on my way back. And this time, I didn't damage the corpse. Apart from the crystal gems, the flesh of the monsters can also fetch me good money.

After taking a quick glance at it, I raised my head to see the hilly peaks ahead. So far, I haven't come across any evidence of first-order monsters.I hope it won't be the case tomorrow.

In a few hours, it's going to be dawn. It's better to find a safe place to spend the night.

Police headquarters,

Investigation department head's cabin,

Wizard Billy Woods looked at the person in front of him. It's none other than, battle hall department head, Dale Berg.

Both of them looked into each other's eyes. But none of them said anything.

Dale Berg sighed inwardly, because the interrogation with Leon Willy didn't end well. They thought they could get all the information from Leon Willy's mouth.

But who would have thought Leon Willy's physique would worsen after coming into contact with the pain magic? It went out of everyone's expression.

In the end, they could gain only a little information. The number of powerhouses in Poison Dagger in particular. According to him, there were two other level-4 wizards beside him at the poison dagger.

Currently, one of them is out of the country. It's been a long time since he last contacted the poison dagger. So that leaves the other one, Kilian Hoffer, the bug mage.

And they have numerous reports of this person. He was partially involved in Tyler Dixon's accident. Without his support, Leon Willy wouldn't have had the time to continue the fight against Tyler Dixon.

But unfortunately, after spilling a few beans, Leon Willy fell unconscious. And they have found that his body has been deteriorating gradually.

This sudden situation caught them off guard. In a few days, they have to transfer Leon Willy to the capital. But it's difficult to say he will survive until then.

The atmosphere remained silent for a moment.

Dale Berg couldn't come up with a suitable solution. He looked at Billy Woods for some answers. But he was embarrassed to ask openly. Because he dragged Wizard Billy into this sh!t.

If he had minded his own business, this wouldn't have happened.

On the other hand, Wizard Billy snorted coldly, seeing his expressions. Because of Dale Berg, everyone has now fallen into deep sh!t.

Who is going to be responsible for Leon Willy's condition? Obviously, the wizards from the capital will point their finger at two of them. And when it comes to Eva, she was actually obeying her superior's order. So higher ups won't punish her.

Right now, two of them have to worry about themselves.

Ever since he left the prison cell, he had been racking his brain to find some answers. There is no possible explanation for Leon Willy's sudden health deterioration.

When he captured him, he knew that Leon Willy's health was not this bad. Is that pain magic responsible for his health deterioration? He is not sure about that.

Only healers can find some answers. They only had the wizard Mictchell in this building, and he didn't have the authority to check Leon Willy's health condition.

None of them reported anything back to the capital. But it will be known at the time of the transfer. Wizard Billy's expression turned ugly. He doesn't know what consequences they are going to face if the matter is known to higher ups.
