Chapter 16: Blind Encounter
Running through the forest and hunting for slimes was time consuming and dull. With a single strike, he could kill and gain three XP from a slime, no skill required. His legs worked like blurry wings. It was like he was flying through the bushes and trees. No doubt he was running quicker than the fastest human on Earth.
A slime came into view. Slash! It was dead.
[ Receive:
3 XP ]
He kept running, he didn't stop. Wearing a silly grin on his face, he wished to encounter a Slime Jack. That thing had previously required him, William, and Sun-young to defeat. By himself and wielding the Touch of Thunder, he hoped to kill it on his own. The Slime Jack dropped 300 XP upon its death. In a team of three, that value was divided equally, regardless of contribution.
He ran, he ran, he killed, he sliced—
Boing!
He twisted his torso and sprung to the left. He heard it. He heard the bouncy jump of the Slime Jack.
He made his way into a clearing and his eyes flicked upwards. There it was, the Slime Jack, blocking the sun with its massive shape. Its shadow was quickly shrinking and he saw a person underneath. A player. Kazi saw the confused facial features and the total lack of awareness.
"Watch out!"
Kazi sprung forward and lit his two blades up with Double Spark Strike. The Slime Jack wanted to crush the player and Kazi couldn't let that happen. He skidded beside the player and pointed his blades up. The Slime Jack fell right into his two blades and was electrocuted to its core. Its motor movements were strong, however, and it heaved itself off of his swords.
