Chapter 317 - Kill
Chapter 317: Chapter 317 – Kill
Chen Heng had originally been planning to take his time here and wait until this body grew.
However, things rarely went as one wished in this world.
On a certain day, as Chen Heng was resting in the den, some noise outside woke him up.
A massive amount of mental energy appeared before quickly disappearing.
Chen Heng opened his eyes and heard howls continuously sounding out.
It was the voices of the Kobolds.
Whenever the Kobolds felt terror, they would give off this kind of sharp howl.
During the past month or so, Chen Heng had heard many similar sounds.
However, it was the first time Chen Heng had heard so many of them at the same time.
“What’s going on?” Chen Heng thought to himself as he looked ahead.
“Kalunu… Kalunu…”
Voices sounded out from the distance.
“L-Leave…”
As Chen Heng watched on, a Kobold ran over, calling out Chen Heng’s name.
His name in this life was Kalunu.
Just like other intelligent life, even though Kobolds were not very intelligent, they had their own language and names.
Just like humans, every Kobold had its own name.
Hearing that cry, Chen Heng looked over.
That Kobold was his body’s mother.
Her face was filled with terror as she ran over; it seemed like there was something chasing behind her.
This was indeed the case.
Behind the Kobold, there was a figure that was not very big but gave off a savage aura.
That figure was not very tall compared to humans, but it looked much more well-built than Kobolds. It gave off an incredibly bloodthirsty aura that made one want to avoid it.
Looking at that figure, Chen Heng’s eyes narrowed as a name appeared in his mind.
Beastman.
Indeed, the one chasing the female Kobold right now was a Beastman.
The Beastmen were indigenous to the Wastelands and could be found all over.
Back in the Kalo Kingdom, Chen Heng had sensed how resilient these Beastmen were.
Now, he had once again run into them.
These Beastmen had once been ants to Chen Heng that he could easily kill.
However, to these Kobolds, the Beastmen were incredibly powerful, to the point that they felt despair.
A Kobold was no match for a Beastman.
Moreover, when Beastmen appeared, they were usually never alone.
This was especially so when they were attacking.
In other words…
Hearing the howls from the surroundings, many thoughts appeared in Chen Heng’s mind.
“Pillaging?”
The Beastmen were notorious in the Wastelands, not only to humans, but to other creatures as well.
The Beastmen were great threats to all creatures, and they would often invade and attack.
Sometimes it was over food, and sometimes they just ran into each other.
The Kobold tribe that Chen Heng was in was not very strong. However, it had nearly 100 Kobolds and was not too weak.
To dare to attack this Kobold tribe, these Beastmen most likely were not weak either.
“Leave, Kalunu!”
The cry once again sounded out.
As Chen Heng thought, the Beastman quickly came close and reached the female Kobold, giving a savage smile.
It raised his claw and prepared to rip this Kobold to shreds.
The female Kobold was covered with injuries, and she looked like she was in a bad shape.
There were evident bite marks, looking like they were from the Beastmen.
Chen Heng looked over and saw blood dripping out of the Beastman, as well as some bits of flesh.
Looking at the female Kobold and the young Kobolds around, a savage expression appeared on its face.
This place was a place for raising the Kobold juveniles.
Apart from Chen Heng, there were some other Kobold juveniles, looking at the Beastman in terror.
Finally, the Beastman caught up to Ailun and pushed her to the ground and bit down.
In terms of strength, even an adult male Kobold would not be a match for a Beastman, let alone a female Kobold like Ailun.
However, in the end, the Beastman was not successful.
A massive wave of mental energy spread out, affecting the surroundings.
At that moment, the Beastman froze.
Following this, a figure walked out.
Compared to the female Kobold, this figure was very small, and he was less than half a meter tall.
He was just a Kobold juvenile, but different from the other Kobold juveniles, he seemed incredibly calm, and his eyes gave off great pressure.
“Kalunu!”
Seeing the Kobold juvenile’s figure, Ailun instinctively cried out. Right now, she was also under the effects of Mental Intimidation.
This was not surprising.
After all, because both Kobolds and Beastmen were not very intelligent, and their mental energy was quite weak.
Let alone compared to Chen Heng, they could not even compare to ordinary humans.
The gap between them and Chen Heng was too great.
However, even though they froze, Chen Heng did not.
Standing there, a trace of green flashed in the Kobold juvenile’s eyes as he coldly looked at the Beastman.
In that moment, a golden sword condensed, and with a light sound, blood splattered out as the Beastman was nailed to the ground by the golden sword.
Seeing this, the Kobolds present were all stunned.
Ailun could not come to her senses and lay on the ground, staring in disbelief.
Only after a while did they come to their senses and knelt on the ground as they began to worship Chen Heng.
“Nature God’s emissary…”
In front, Ailun knelt down as she trembled and continuously spoke.
With Kobolds’ limited amount of intelligence and knowledge, they naturally did not understand what magic skills were.
As such, they instinctively worshipped and attributed everything to gods.
Seeing Ailun continuously worship him, Chen Heng frowned.
However, at this moment, a warm current appeared within his body.
After killing the Beastman, a dark-red Divinity became active as energy gradually spread out throughout Chen Heng’s body.
After killing that Beastman, under the Slaughtering Divinity’s effects, slaughtering energy appeared and began to make Chen Heng’s body stronger.
In just an instant, Chen Heng’s body went through changes: His weak organs began to grow and become stronger.
Soon, Chen Heng had reached a stage that Kobold juveniles would have taken many months to reach, and his body grew much bigger.
Sensing this, Chen Heng inwardly sighed and felt quite fortunate.
Fortunately, even though he had not invested too many Points, he had split off a portion of his Divinities to this body.
After all, if this body fell, everything would return to his main body and he would not suffer any losses.
Right now, this portion of Divinities had helped Chen Heng.
Following this, Chen Heng looked ahead.
He could sense a few existences containing ill-intent walking over.
They were most likely also Beastmen, and they seemed quite bloodthirsty.
Looking at Ailun, they rushed over as they roared.
In response, Chen Heng looked over.
Boundless mental energy spread out, freezing them all in space.
Mental Intimidation!
A simple Mental Intimidation was the best magic skill Chen Heng could use right now.
After all, he did not have any magic energy, so he could only use simple magic skills.
However, although this magic skill was simple, it was very effective.
The Beastmen had very low resistance to mental attacks, and in just a few short moments, the Beastmen all fell.
Following this, as Ailun watched on with a heated gaze, Chen Heng slowly walked forwards.
A golden sword of light condensed in his hand and sliced down.
A few lives disappeared just like that.
Within Chen Heng’s body, the warm current once again appeared as even more slaughtering energy appeared.
Sensing the stimulation from the slaughtering energy, Chen Heng’s body quickly grew.
His tender organs became stronger and stronger, and he now contained greater strength.
He was still quite small, but his strength was much greater and was not inferior to ordinary Kobold adults.
However, this was nothing to be proud of.
After all, Kobold were famous for how weak they were.
Even ordinary people could easily defeat multiple Kobolds attacking together.
Regardless, Chen Heng becoming stronger gave him more confidence to deal with the following situation.
“How many more are there?” Chen Heng turned and looked at Ailun as he asked.
He wanted to know how many Beastmen there were; after all, Chen Heng’s mental energy was not limitless.
At the end of the day, this was just a clone, and even though its mental energy was powerful, it was still limited.
After killing those Beastmen from before, he had used up about half of his mental energy.
If there were many of them outside, he would consider running away.
“Ten… no, less than ten…”
Hearing Chen Heng’s question, Ailun thought for a moment before replying.
“Less than ten?”
Hearing this, Chen Heng frowned and walked out.
Ailun hurriedly followed behind him.
