Blood Assimilation

After walking deeper into the Beast Forest for about 5 minutes, Randy abruptly stopped his movement as he suddenly felt a sense of danger through his heightened senses trait.

Although rather than a sense of danger, it felt more like someone, or something was stalking him in the dark after he had traversed further in the Beast Forest.

At this point, he could not shake this feeling of unease as he frantically looked around him to find the source of this feeling. However, he could not find the source no matter how hard he tried, this caused him to broke out in cold sweats.

Danger!

He then fully activated his reinforcement skill and still could not find the source of the sudden uneasiness that he was currently feeling.

He could tell through his heightened senses that the other party was close to him, but he could not tell where they were no matter. This caused Randy to become more cautious as he was ready to go all out to engage the other party if necessary.

However, at this moment, before he could even react, he suddenly felt something coiling around his body out of nowhere.

Randy instantly flinched on the spot from fright and immediately tried to activate his Gale Riding skill to evade the unknown enemy, however he soon found out that he was too late as he suddenly heard a sound in the background.

Hiss!

Even now, Randy could not see the other party as they continuously coiled around his body. Almost as if they were invisible?

\'Wait, an invisible mutated beast! Damn it, to think I would suddenly run into such a mutated beast with a special ability.\' Randy felt his heart sinking at this moment when he realized what was going on.

Nevertheless, it does not matter whether he recognize what was going on or not as the other party was still coiling around his body starting from his legs and reaching his abdomen as it continued upwards with swift pace.

Instantly Randy snapped out of his shocked state of mind when he noticed this mutated beast was doing.

First, it neutralized his ability to escape by first wrapping his legs and second, using its prey\'s confusion, it suddenly coiling around them relentlessly while tightening the grip around their body.

This was a very cunning mutated beast that knows how to corner its prey, along with that invisible ability that made it possible to always sneak up on its opponents before they could even know what hit them.

\'Damn it!\' Randy cursed inwardly as he felt himself unable to move from his spot.

He then quickly thought of ways to deal with this situation and avoid being eaten alive by this cunning mutated beast.

After thinking for a bit, he soon ignored the mutated beast as looked at his unrestrained pair of arms before quickly calming himself down and then displayed a cruel smile and uttered: "You damn monster, you made a big mistake by trying to corner me like this."

Saying so, Randy had already swung his sharp clawed finger at the invisible body around his body, digging his clawed hand into its body without stopping.

Wish!

Pukh!

Blood spilled!

"Hiss!!"

A sudden hissing sound resounded in the forest as Randy kept relentlessly digging his clawed hand into its body.

Pukh! Pukh! Pukh!

The mutated beast\'s body suddenly twitched from the sharp pain in its body and then continuously let out a painful hissing sound and very soon, its invisibility ability was undone.

Gradually, the body of the mutated beast was then revealed.

It was snake-type mutated beast.

A mutated python!

This mutated python was around 6 meters in length and its as wide as a quarter of a meter, its skin was covered in a green and yellow scales.

However, these scales seemed to emanating a strange type of energy fluctuations.

Supposedly, these scales were what it uses to activate its special ability.

But nonetheless, this was already a terrifying creature with its adeptness at catching its prey of guard and then suffocation them to death and this very same creature had mutated and even gained a special ability that aligns very well with its habits .

So terrifying!

At this point, when Randy dug his clawed arm further into its body, it then tried to run away, but ultimately failed to get away from his grasp.

How could he let go of such a mutated python when it brought itself to him? Not mention this python had a special ability, an invisibility-type ability.

Randy was instantly excited when he noticed this fact, after all, this was a perfect stealth-type ability that could be used for various things.

\'Ahem, with the exception of illegal or immoral things of course. Hm… well, maybe it won\'t be so bad to use it for ste— I mean, acquiring skills and techniques, and perhaps it might prove to be useful in combat.\' Randy inwardly cleared his throat as he seriously thought to himself.

With that thought in mind, Randy dug his claw deeper into the mutated python\'s body causing it hiss out loudly and as it could not take it anymore, it tried to bite him by lunging its head towards him, however Randy easily dodged this kind of desperate attack by tilting his head slightly and then continued digging his hand into its body.

Despite the fact that the reason why he came to this Beast Forest in the first place was to accumulate knowledge points, however at this moment, Randy was more interested in this python\'s camouflaging ability and with that in mind, he activated his skill without hesitation.

[[Blood Authority Skill Activated]]

Soon, the invisible magnetic-like field appeared around his body as he quickly but steadily drained the blood of this mutated python.

The python could feel its blood quickly being drained as it struggled to run away to no avail.

Randy made sure his arm dug all the way in the python\'s body as he continued to drain its blood relentlessly without stopping any time soon, until it dies that is.

A few moments later, the mutated python snake body suddenly went limp as it dropped to the ground with \'thud\' sound.

It was only now, that Randy decided to let go of the mutated python by taking his bodied hand out of its body.

At this moment, a blob of spherical glistening red liquid was floating in front of his very eyes.

Upon a closer inspection using his Blood Authority skill, Randy quickly found out that this blob of blood that was compressed to the size of a soccer ball contained many harmful substances that could be detrimental to him if he recklessly absorbed it into his blood stream after assimilation.

And so, with that realization, Randy proceeded to use his Blood Authority skill to further remove the harmful substances from the blood eventually shrinking down the size of the blood to the sized of marble-like sphere, compressed enough to fit in his palm.

The moment he was done, he immediately stopped as he looked into void of space in front of him.

At this moment, new lines of texts started appearing on the holographic screen and Randy carefully read the contents of this lines of texts.

[[You have slain a cunning mutated beast, \'Stealthy Python\']]

[[Attention, this was a C-rank mutated beast that mainly fights through cornering its prey using its stealth ability and then strangling them to death with its strong grip. Other than that, it does not have much combat prowess even as a C-rank mutated beast and thus easy to kill once you strike before you are completely coiled around.]]

[[Through achieving this feat of slaying this highly cunning mutated beast, you have obtained 500 Knowledge Points]]

"Ohhh!! Finally something to celebrate about; it seems my efforts were not in vain just now." Randy said in delight, after reading the final line of text.

500 Knowledge Points!

According to his original plan, he was going to accumulate about 1000 knowledge points at least to see if he can comprehend one of the techniques or skills, however if he can run somehow run into this snake beast a couple of times, he can accumulate more knowledge points than he had originally planned.

With that though in mind, Randy could not hide his excitement anymore, nonetheless, there was a more pressing matters that he had to deal with.

At the point, a new notification flashed by his eyes, followed by displaying lines of texts.

[[You have obtained the blood essence of the mutated beast, \'Stealthy Python\']]

[[This blood essence contains the Blood Knowledge of the Stealthy Python, consuming it may grant you all its abilities and possible traits]]

The system stated after Randy used his Blood Authority skill to solidify the blood and then grabbed it with his hands.

After reading this, Randy did not hesitate and threw the condensed ball of blood into his mouth swallowing it.

The next moment, a new notification popped up right away after he swallowed the condensed blood.
