Slime True Immortal

Chapter 236: Hero Rank



Chen Yu tumbled several times through the air before finally spreading his gel wings, coming to a stable hover. He discreetly glanced at his status panel.

Race: Sage Slime

Level: Gold Lv.10 [EXP: 0/100]

Cultivation: Qi Training Lv.9 [Spiritual Energy: 90/90]

Life Status: Healthy [HP: 400,000 / 400,000]

That was right. After his magical creature level reached Silver Lv.9, bolstered by the effects of the [Forest Sage] title, Chen Yu had smoothly broken through to the Gold-Rank, becoming a true being of The Extraordinary.

He had even gained a new title from this.

Reputation Title: Slime Hero

Acquisition Condition: A slime must pass through three Trial Gates and complete a transformation of life essence during the Hero Trial, obtaining Gold-tier certification.

Title Effects:

  1. Fame Imprint: The name "Slime Hero" will cause a stir among the various races of the continent. Whether met with surprise, scorn, or awe, it will be remembered.
  2. Life Transformation: The origin of life breaks through racial limitations. Maximum HP increased by 500%. Base attributes receive a significant boost.
  3. Resilient Physique: Possesses a powerful heroic body, gaining higher resistance to all magic damage, physical damage, and mental damage.
  4. Rank Suppression: Exerts a natural suppression on units below the Hero rank, lowering their attack accuracy.
Note: When the lowliest slime breaks the shackles of its bloodline and completes the transformation of life, it is in itself a subversion of the world's rules.

At this moment, it is no longer an ordinary slime, but a slime pioneer who has embarked on a new path.

"A slime that can eat will grow strong." — Recorded by a Slime Pioneer, Winter Calendar Year 1932.

The potential ceiling of the slime bloodline was very low, and the life limit bonus after transformation wasn't much. At least, in Chen Yu's view, it was far inferior to that of humans.

But he already had eighty thousand HP at the Silver rank. This breakthrough directly skyrocketed his HP to four hundred thousand.

Not only did it compensate for the potential deficiency, but his HP also far exceeded that of ordinary human Extraordinary professionals.

Right now, he was terrifyingly strong.

At this moment, the Magical Creature Legion was already continuing its advance towards the Storm Fortress, clashing fiercely ahead with the Knight Team attempting to block them. This area had completely become a battlefield for The Extraordinary.

Perfect for letting loose and practicing.

On the other side, that assassin had already fled a considerable distance, his figure flickering in and out of the shadows.

"I told you, Ellen, these slimes aren't as simple as you think."

Simo's voice suddenly rang out. He was carrying his warhammer, walking out from the gradually fading fire domain.

He stomped his foot, extinguishing the last flickering tongue of flame. The enchanting patterns on his heavy armor gradually faded, not even leaving a single scorch mark or wound.

Looking back at the fire domain, it had somehow developed a fissure leading to an elemental plane, forcibly dragging the unwillingly roaring Fire Lord back.

"Enough talk."

The assassin named Ellen tried to enter stealth again, fleeing the spot to seek another opportunity for an attack.

However, a faint fluorescent glow suddenly lit up on his body, making his figure clearly visible against the gloomy backdrop of the magical tide.

He had been marked by a magical potion, and without his knowledge.

"When did..."

He hurriedly looked up to see Louisa standing on the back of the giant eagle, lightly shaking an empty potion bottle in his direction.

Just this moment of distraction was enough for several magic missiles to come whistling towards him, nearly hitting him.

Ellen didn't dare to linger. His figure swiftly drifted over the magical tide, moving at an absurd speed, quickly reuniting with Simo.

"Simo, that slime is weird," he said, looking towards Chen Yu, who had already spread his gel wings and was floating mid-air, his tone full of wariness.

Simo shot him a glance. He didn't need to be told; he could see it himself.

What normal slime could fly?

"Are you sure it's Gold-Rank?" Simo asked gravely.

Ellen hesitated for a moment, recalling the terrifying impact force earlier and the bizarre sensation when his dagger pierced it. He affirmed, "Absolutely. But it seems somewhat resistant to my attack style. If you were to strike, with your strength, you could definitely smash it to pieces with one hammer blow."

Simo gave a slight nod, his gaze locking onto Chen Yu. "We'll smash it first, then deal with Princess Louisa."

The two exchanged a glance, reaching a consensus, then without hesitation, simultaneously charged towards Chen Yu hovering in mid-air.

Princess Louisa released a dense barrage of magic missiles to interfere. She had just mentally asked Chen Yu if he needed support when she saw Chen Yu flap his wings and leisurely fly forward to meet them.

"Little guy, are you crazy?!" Celeste flapped her wings, unable to hold back her exclamation.

Chen Yu glanced at her, then transmitted a "cover me" thought to Louisa, still resolutely flying towards Simo.

"Whatever weirdness you have, take my hammer first!" Simo's gaze turned fierce. He rudely shoved aside all magical creatures blocking his path. His stout, bulky frame erupted with astonishing speed. After two or three large strides, his entire body leaped into the air like a cannonball.

"Face your judgment, nameless King!"

[Leaping Smash]

He roared, raising the warhammer high above his head, bringing it down towards the airborne Chen Yu with a momentum that seemed capable of smashing everything.

The warhammer tore through the air with a dull roar, the air below seemingly compressed by its passage.

"Careful!" In her urgency, Louisa only had time to cast a single layer of magical armor on Chen Yu.

Chen Yu's gel wings instantly retracted into his body. His round, rolling body plummeted straight towards the ground. The moment it made contact, the gel even wobbled a few times like a spring.

"Take my... Slime Ejection!"

His entire body shot upwards with explosive force. The speed was so fast it left a green afterimage in the air. He didn't dodge or evade, charging straight towards the descending Simo.

"What...?" Simo's pupils contracted. He hadn't anticipated the opponent would counter with this almost suicidal method.

"BANG!!!"

The rapidly flying green "cannonball" struck Simo's chest first. In that instant, Simo experienced the same feeling Ellen had just moments ago.

It was as if he hadn't collided with a soft, squishy slime, but a Giant Dragon charging at full speed.

An irresistible, immense force transmitted through. Simo's downward momentum was forcibly interrupted. His entire person was sent flying backward as if struck by a battering ram, plummeting to the ground like a meteor.

"BOOM!!!"

The ground was smashed into a shallow crater several meters in diameter, dust and debris flying. Simo lay at the bottom of the pit, feeling his chest churning with blood and energy. His arm gripping the warhammer went numb, the sensation lingering for a long time.

What the hell? How is this slime so strong?!

Simo's gaze, filled with shock and doubt, looked up from the pit. He awkwardly dodged several magic missiles Louisa seized the chance to fire at him. With a roar of rage, he charged once more towards Chen Yu, who had just landed.

Chen Yu rolled several times in mid-air to disperse the recoil, extending his gel wings again, attempting to regain his hover.

However, the enemy gave him no chance to catch his breath.

Ellen's pitch-black figure, like a venomous snake merging with the shadows, suddenly manifested in the air to Chen Yu's side and rear.

His speed was so fast it seemed like teleportation. In his hand was a red blade as long as his forearm, carrying a lethal, cold gleam as it silently stabbed towards Chen Yu's gel body.

At first, Ellen felt an unusually tough layer of resistance at the dagger's tip, as if piercing into some kind of elastic magical creature leather.

But with the strength of an Extraordinary assassin and the sharpness of the dagger, this defense was instantly breached. The dagger smoothly pierced into the gel's interior.

"Success?" Ellen felt a surge of joy in his heart, but his expression immediately changed.

The blade he had stabbed into the gel seemed firmly anchored by countless viscous fluids. He couldn't pull it out.

In mid-air, his eyes met Chen Yu's round, beady little eyes. From within them, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a conspiratorial, triumphant gleam.

"Not good!" Ellen, with his rich combat experience, immediately sensed danger. He decisively let go, abandoning his beloved blade, and his body rapidly retreated backward.

Yet, it was still a step too late.

[Flame Affinity]

[Pea Shot]

[Mana Explosion]

Chen Yu's gel body instantly turned red-hot, as if magma was flowing inside. The high temperature distorted the surrounding air.

A fist-sized glob of gel shot out from within his body, accurately targeting the retreating Ellen.

"BOOM!!!"

The intense, close-range explosion completely engulfed Ellen. Despite his desperate attempt to dodge at the last moment, he was still struck by the blast wave.

"Ugh-ah!"

Ellen let out a muffled grunt. His entire person fell like a kite with its string cut, crashing down into the surging magical tide below.

Clutching his injured shoulder, enduring the intense pain, his figure flickered several times as he quickly fled the explosion zone. His face was pale, his heart still racing with fear.

"He's still fine after that?"

Chen Yu felt somewhat surprised. It seemed he had somewhat underestimated the elemental resistance and survivability of Extraordinary professionals.

If it were a thick-skinned warrior like Simo, that attack might not even have scratched him.

He glanced again at the blade still embedded in his gel, trembling slightly.

Hmm... That one attack deducted eight thousand HP from him. Seems pretty high, doesn't it?

[Devour Digestion]

[Life Drain]

With a thought, the blade stuck in him, along with several unlucky magical creatures caught in the nearby explosion, were all sucked into a miniature black hole generated within the gel.

[HP +500]

[Max HP +120]

[HP +300]

[Max HP +5]

...

The HP lost just moments ago was instantly replenished, even increasing his maximum HP by a few hundred.

This weapon can increase Max HP by so much. Seems its quality is quite good.

Princess Louisa was momentarily stunned, clearly not expecting Chen Yu to handle the assassin's sneak attack so easily, even managing to injure the opponent in return.

This Gold-Rank slime seemed stranger than any Magical Creature Lord she had ever seen.

"My weapon..." Ellen's heart was bleeding, but he didn't dare to recklessly expose himself now, fearing being locked onto by Princess Louisa's magic missiles.

He drew another enchanted dagger from his reserves. Watching Simo, who had already charged towards Chen Yu, he gritted his teeth. His figure merged into the shadows once more, planning to flank from the side, coordinating with Simo for a joint attack.

Having experienced Ellen's full-power strike, Chen Yu had a clearer understanding of his own capabilities and felt slightly more at ease.

He landed directly back on the ground, retracted his wings, his round body lowering slightly as he faced the charging Simo and Ellen hidden in the shadows.

[Dominate Beasts]

Louisa's staff glowed faintly. A powerful mental wave spread out, instantly charming dozens of low-tier magical creatures charging in the vicinity.

Their eyes lit up with a magical glow. Roaring, they changed direction, madly tearing and biting towards Simo.

"Scram!" Simo let out an ear-splitting battle cry. An invisible sonic wave dizzied and disoriented the pouncing magical creatures, forcing them back.

He swung his giant hammer, carrying the force to split mountains and crack stones, once again savagely smashing towards Chen Yu on the ground.

[Shattering Rock Heavy Blow]

"BANG!!!"

Where the giant hammer struck, the ground seemed trampled by a colossal beast, cracking layer by layer. Rubble shot out in all directions like a fountain. From the impact point, spiderweb-like cracks spread out over ten meters.

Chen Yu, at the very center of the attack, had his gel body flattened by the immense force, deeply embedded into the ground.

But the slime body's incredible elasticity was displayed to its fullest at this moment. Like a spring pressed down and then released, Chen Yu shot up from the pit. The reactive force of his gel body slightly bounced the heavy warhammer away, also allowing him to avoid Simo's subsequent hammer strikes.

Utilizing his slime jumping power and the assistance of his gel wings, he began to nimbly bounce and maneuver between Simo and Ellen, who would occasionally stab out with his dagger from the shadows.

Each of Simo's hammer strikes was powerful and heavy, leaving deep pits in the ground and throwing up large amounts of dirt.

Occasionally striking a rock, even the hard stone would be instantly smashed to pieces.

Ellen's dagger strikes were cunning and vicious. Each time he flashed into view, he would leave a wound of moderate depth on Chen Yu's body and inject poison.

Without protective measures, it was difficult to withstand the siege of two Extraordinary beings. Chen Yu immediately felt his HP rapidly dropping.

However... He might lack protective measures, but he had plenty of healing talents.

[Devour Digestion]

[Life Drain]

[Thermal Recovery]

[Blood Recovery]

[Vampire's Touch]

Various recovery effects mixed together. Chen Yu's gel body color fluctuated between a vibrant emerald green, a dark reddish hue, and even shimmering with specks of silver light, even triggering Mana Turbulence.

The wounds healed at a visible rate. The rapidly decreasing HP actually recovered at an astonishing speed, offsetting the damage inflicted by the two Extraordinary beings.

Unkillable. Simply unkillable.

They couldn't deal damage faster than he could heal.

Simo and Ellen spent quite some time maneuvering around this slime. The more they fought, the more alarmed they became. The more they fought, the more something felt off.

This little thing... why won't it just die?

On the contrary, it seemed to grow more energetic, more lively the more they fought?

They even started to feel like they weren't facing a slime, but more like an indestructible, bizarre rubber ball.

Simo and Ellen exchanged a glance. At this moment, only one thought remained in their hearts.

Run!

However, Louisa had long seen through their intention. She raised her staff and began to chant.

[Plant Growth]

[Wrath of Nature]

Within mere seconds, trees sprouted from the magical creature excrement, growing wildly. A forest maze rose from the ground.

Nourished by the spell, the entire small forest seemed to come alive, weaving vines, huddling together for warmth, trapping the two within a green prison, making it difficult for them to take a single step.

[Sage Enlightenment]

[Hixiulong Part One]

[All Plants as Soldiers]

Chen Yu's entire gel body emitted a vibrant emerald life force glow, spreading to the surrounding trees.

Five oak trees, enveloped by the life energy, grew taller once more. They pulled their roots from the ground, surrounding Simo and Ellen in the center.
