Reborn: Rise of the Greatest Summoner

Chapter 572 The Hunt!





Hours later…

The crimson glow of a red moon illuminated the world.

It was night in Planet Gogunheim.

The night was still and silent.

Outwardly, it seemed peaceful but unknown to the outside, a war actually raged in the night. The very perceptive could barely keep track of the slight rustling sounds every few seconds, that was another beast killed.

The apex predators, the Warpsnares were master hunters in the dark.

They feast on their prey in the night.

Planet Gogunheim may be a haven for Warpsnares but they were not the only beasts in the island, the ecosystem would be too disorganized that way.

They were the kings in the food chain but there were other beasts.

Tons of other beasts that served as enough danger to stimulate their growth.

Amid the dark of the night, another beast prowled forward.

It was a Warpsnare but it was also something else.

It was Legolas.

-----

You have activated active ability: Stealth!

----

Legolas was as silent as the night as he moved forward.

After making his decision to hunt one of the Grade B Warpsnares, he took the full day to finetune the plan that had been at the back of his mind since.

Night was the perfect hunting time in Planet Gogunheim for Warpsnares.

This planet showed favorability for beasts with shadow and night affinities.

They were at their best here and Warpsnares were mostly the same.

At this moment, Legolas moved towards his target, a lone tree that was in the middle of a thick forest. The tree was lone because it was absolutely gigantic, it dwarfed every other tree that was on this forest.

This sacred tree was the home of one of the Grade B Warpsnares.

Legolas called her the Demoness Warpsnare.

He discovered her 3 days ago and without hesitation engaged her in battle. He was not defeated miserably but he barely stood any chance at killing her, in the end, he had no choice but to retreat having not achieved his goal.

This night was different though.

This night, Legolas was prepared.

Rustle! Rustle!

The sound of the wind blowing left a whistling aftertaste sound as the leaves of the trees danced to the rhythm of the wind.

The sacred tree stood as tall as usual.

No beast could be seen on it or around it which was unusual, all these was due to the invisible beast that took it's branches as its home.

A kilometer away from this tree, Legolas' eyes became totally focused and he did the thing.

-----

[Current Warpsnare Form: Swamp Frog!]

Passive Ability has been triggered: Swamp Toughness

Passive Ability has been triggered: Weapon Affinity- Spear

You have activated active ability: Swamp Affinity- Radar Expansion!

----

The expansion of energy was silent and undetectable.

Warp Prime's first Swamp Frog form was perfect for Planet Gogunheim, this form was literally made for this. In a swampy environment, it was at its best.

And just 2 days ago, Legolas stole this new ability, radar expansion.

It enabled him to see enemies that were invisible to the naked eye and were hiding through different means, it was also what enabled him to finally see the Grade B Warpsnare's base form and was why he named her Demoness.

Bzzz!

Through his new vision, he saw her, a gigantic python.

She was over 300 meters long.

Her scales were a sparkling gold, and mixed with her natural skin, she exuded danger. At this moment, she was curled around this gigantic sacred tree.

Her head had a sparkling silver crown that contrasted her gold scales.

And at this moment, in her state of invisibility, she was watching the surrounding kilometers from up high like a demon queen watching her territory.

She was a snake but she was absolutely gorgeous.

Her crown made her look like a queen of beautiful death.

It was why Legolas called her the Demoness Warpsnare, and now, he was finally ready to end this Demoness's life after extensive plans.

He did not hesitate.

-----

You have activated active ability: Spear Toss!

----

BAM!

The spear tore through the air with force.

"HISS…!!!"

The gigantic Python hissed instantly as the spear alone made her recognize who this enemy was, having failed to kill him once, she hissed in anger.

Then, the crown on her head briefly glowed silver.

CRACK!

The spear rapidly froze before shattering into countless ice pieces.

-----

You have activated active ability: Earthquake Stomp!

----

The huge Frog stomped on the ground as a mighty shockwave spread into the earth, a region across kilometers instantly started shaking as a massive earthquake was induced.

The sacred tree also started shaking, the Python was even more annoyed.

-----

You have activated active ability: Swamp Control!

You have activated active ability: Double-Speared Frog!

----

Legolas finally moved from his starting point.

BOOM!

"Hisss…!!!"

While the Python was still hissing angrily, looking for the opponent, the swamp from the surrounding instantly rose as if they had a will of their own as they started hugging the tree including the Python.

With so much mud, her form in the tree was finally exposed.

Her invisibility was neutralized.

Before she could react in even more anger, he arrived.

DING! DING!

Both spears stabbed against this Python and only sparks were seen as the thick scales easily repelled the attack.

Legolas did not panic though; this was within his expectations.

He already had a total outline for this hunt and he intended to follow it.

His eyes gleamed as he saw her finally raise her head.

This was it!

-----

[Inventory has been accessed!]

[You have retrieved Equipment- Cutting-Edge Obsidian Spear!]

You have activated Self-Created Technique: Nature Connection!

----

Grabbing the Obsidian Spear that suddenly appeared among the regular spears with his right hand, Legolas struck forward with all his power.

The air shook with power as the spear cut through it.

The neutral mana in the air responded with his movements.

Seeing this, the scales on this Python's body finally stood on end, she felt danger for the first time since she faced this strange Warpsnare some time ago.

She reacted by trying to retreat with her head but it was already too late.

BAM!

The pitch-black Spear struck against her crown.

CRACK!

The crown shattered!

"…!"

For a moment, time seemed to freeze.

The crown, the pride of the Demoness Warpsnare was just shattered!

This was the gravest of sins!

In an instant, Legolas turned around as his control over the rampaging mud in the surroundings buried him. He was already escaping!

He dared not hesitate because he knew what would follow.

"…!" Silence reigned for half a second, then…

"HISSSS…!!!"

This Ice Python exploded in rage.

Her hiss reverberated like the loud blast of a horn.

Other warpsnares cowered in their caves, they knew that a bigshot was just angered and the next moment, this forest seemed to turn into a wasteland.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

She finally unleashed her power as ice flooded everywhere with the force of an avalanche, turning this originally lush forest into an arctic domain.

Trees were frozen, innocent Warpsnares were frozen, but he still survive…

"HISS…!" She was angry, and she went in pursuit.

WHOOSH!

She slithered through the new arctic domain at a ridiculous speed.

With anger, she bulldozed her way through the ice, following her instincts to locate the general direction in which she detected this offender.

While all this happened, Legolas was calm.

"Step 1, taunt completed successful!"

"Step 2…" His eyes narrowed. "Containment!"

Legolas suddenly dived through a hole into the ground.

BOOOMMMM!

Without hesitation, the Python dived after him.

Well, this was her end.

As soon as she dived inside this gigantic hole that was made under the ground, she detected that something was wrong but it was already too late.

-----

You have activated active ability: Beast Plane Summoning

----

"Step 3, dominate!"

"Step 4, divide and conquer!"

"Step 5, kill!"

Legolas kickstarted the remaining 3 parts of his plan at once.

The Demoness Warpsnare's greatest strength was her myriad abilities and her many Warpsnare forms. Legolas' estimate was that she had at least a thousand abilities and at least 10 forms.

The key to killing her was dominating her and preventing her from attacking at her full strength, and this was why he created his own battlefield.

In this cave, her freedom of movement was restricted.

The power of most of her forms were neutralized.

The next thing of course was him fusing with all 4 of his contracted beasts. In the final Void Monkey form, Legolas bullied this beast with his Obsidian Spear.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

Just a minute in and she was already bleeding on all orifices.

The power difference between them was wide, he was far more powerful than this Warpsnare, her only advantage was her versatility and it showed.

The next moment, she transformed.

BZZZ!

She turned into a gigantic Stone Porcupine.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

This cave started crumbling as she launched her spiky projectiles everywhere, turning this cave into a prospective wasteland in an instant.

Despite her rampage, Legolas continued dominating her with his final form, keeping her trapped under here even as he chipped away at her health points.

2 minutes of intense battle later, her health went below 10%.

This was despite all her healing and health recovery abilities.

This Warpsnare became desperate.

She went berserk.

"Undeath!" She spoke!

"Telepathy!" She roared.

"Compulsion!"

"Telekinesis!"

"Talo…!"

BAM!

Her words were interrupted by a spear stab but she already spoke those.

The next moment, Planet Gogunheim seemed to respond to her words.

BZZZ!

A green portal opened the next moment through which undead Warpsnares started charging out from, Warpsnares that she had killed before now.

-----

WARNING! You have been affected by Telepathy!

WARNING! You have been affected by Compulsion!

Calculating Intelligence…, please wait…

Calculation complete!

You are immune to abilities!

----

Legolas was immune to them but the other beasts were not.

Thousands of beasts and Warpsnares started charging out of the arctic domain the next moment, as they all converged on this cave to save the Demoness.

Legolas was prepared though; his tamed beasts were on the ready.

Led by the Demon Asura, Azrael, they kept the beasts and undead beasts at bay. This gave Legolas all the time that he needed to pummel this beast.

It took 3 more minutes of intense battle though.

"Nature Connection!"

And Legolas stabbed his Obsidian Spear one last time.

BOOM!

Her head finally exploded.

The Demoness Warpsnare… was dead.

Silence instantly descended on this arctic wasteland.

In the silence, Legolas closed his eyes, his lips quivered in excitement. 'Epiphany!'

He finally did it, he broke his limits like he expected.

His understanding of Warpsnares increased to an unprecedented level.

He could also feel his power increasing.

This was when his game interface notifications finally came.
