I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

Chapter 538 Mountain Of Truth



In the first three days on the eighth floor, Fein and his others traveled a hundred miles. They only rest indefinitely for two reasons. First, they would rest in the middle if they feel tired and Voli protested to eat something. Second, when it is nighttime, which means time to sleep. At their first stop, they arrived at a sea of flowers... There they encountered a bee-hives. The bee hives attack them madly just because of a misunderstanding. Well, not really a misunderstanding as Voli took one jar of honey in the nectar and Voli happened to be caught by three passing bees.

Fein didn\'t expect the bees to be so stingy that they would send almost 1/4 of their population just to hunt them. With his perception, he knew the number of bees from the start. They have 60,000 bees in total and all of them are S rank. As for the queen bee, it was a golden-grade creature.

Obviously, Fein knew there were bees in the sea of flowers, but it was still unexpected for him that the bees were so aggressive. After all, as an S rank, he have expected them to have some sort of reasoning and thought Voli taking one jar shouldn\'t cause much reaction.

Another thing is, the bees actually communicated with their mind, so they have good coordination and could send information to each other in a split second. Fein killed twenty-eight bees while he was standing on his flying sword like those immortals in a cultivation book he would have read. Aoi froze nine bees to death and use the Ice age to remove the terrain advantage of the bees on the sea of flowers. In the end, Voli grew to his behemoth state to scare the bees. The pursuit lasted for twenty minutes, with Sofia just pitifully killing three bees.

"Voli, don\'t do that again..." Fein wiped the sweat from his forehead. The number of fifty-meter bees almost gave him a phobia of bees with their sheer number. Although he could take care of them with his sword domain, Fein doesn\'t want to reveal much of his trump card as he felt in the past few days that someone was spying on them.

Fein tried to find the source of the gaze but he couldn\'t find it. In the end, he concluded that the witch was watching them from the last floor and checking their progress. Fein didn\'t know that his speculation was accurate.

At their next stop, they rested above the leaf of the Acacia tree, which was also the biggest tree on the eighth floor. Unfortunately, as if lady luck was against them on that day, they were disturbed by a bunch of ravens that wants to eat them. They were also the first monsters that actually used plans and tactics. Of course, Fein took the opportunity to use his new elemental techniques. He touched one of the ravens and used his Low-Temp Adjustment, causing the raven\'s blood flow to freeze.

The blood of the raven can no longer be pumped, and its whole body suffered frostbite. Even Fein was astonished by the effect of the technique. Obviously, he also tried high-temperature adjustment to one raven. As a result, the S-rank raven was dehydrated and became weak, not as exaggerated as the low-temp adjustment.

When the ravens saw Fein\'s abnormality, they retreated, but Fein took them out with one sword slash. How could he let such an opportunity go? In the outside world, the number of S-rank monsters was pitifully few.

After the small episode with the ravens, they continued their adventure. They traversed a mountain ridge.

After three days, the group has to climb the biggest mountain on the eighth floor. Below the mountain, there are two golden monsters that guard the vicinity. While four golden eagles were guarding the sky. Obviously, Fein opted for the faster way, and that is to fly. Not without killing the two golden grades below the mountain first.

"I\'ll take care of this thing first." Fein winked at Sofia and Voli. Then he swaggered fearlessly in front of the two golden grades.

The two monsters were S-rank humanoid creatures recorded in the monster illustration. Lizardmen, are famous for their hyper-fast regeneration, systematic fighting skills, and dexterity.

"You are?"

The two lizardmen stared at Fein with ferocity. They have brown irises, brown long hair, green scaly skin, and a long green sharp tail. Both of them have silver spears in their hands.

"I\'m here to climb the mountain," Fein answered simply. He wasn\'t surprised that the two could talk, as their structure wasn\'t that different from humans.

But while he wasn\'t surprised, the two lizardmen were surprised as Fin could actually understand them.

"I\'m Garoe." The one on the left introduced himself. "Human, how do you understand our language?"

"I have a talent for it. But why do you speak at me in the first place when you expected that I won\'t understand it?"

Hearing this, the two humanoid lizards were at a loss for words. Garoe scratched his head as he couldn\'t understand why they spoke to the human in the first place.

"It\'s a habit." The lizardman on the right answered. "Human, this isn\'t the place for you to step in. This is the mountain of truth, this is where the master of the eight-floor lives. If you really want to climb, you have to step over our dead body. You still have the chance to turn around, save your life, and pretend that you haven\'t come here. Do we have a deal?"

\'So this is where the master of the eighth floor lives? Then why I can\'t sense anything in my perception?\' Fein became puzzled as there was no strong creature on top of the mountain base on his perception.

"That two are two arrogant!" Voli snorted when he heard the two words.

"How about the opposite? You let me in the mountain. I\'ll kill the master of the eighth floor, and the two you don\'t have to die? You know, I can actually just fly and bypassed you." Fein looked at the two. "I need to go over this mountain to proceed to the next floor, and the two you can\'t stop me."

"Not really..." Garoe replied. Two red wings emerged from his back. "Plus, the four eagles are also there to block your path."
