Undying Warlord

When the mutated Bisons were less than 50 meters away from the four Lion-headed beings, their mane suddenly ignited.

The blazing flames that emerged seemingly out of nowhere burned brightly, extending over their entire body, shrouding the Lion-men which was the name Dilan gave them, completely.

Meanwhile, the two Hawk-headed beings, who received the name Hawk-men from Dilan, were shrouded in a gust of wind.

The snow around them was stirred up as they flapped their wings once. In an instant, they soared three meters in the air before softly landing on the ground.

A moment later, the grayish feathered wings caught fire that was churned up by the gust of wind released by the Hawk-men.

All of this was intentional as brightly burning flames emerged around the Hawk-men. On the other hand, the spears held by the Lion-men turned a fierce shade of red as if they were about to melt.

‘So the Hawk-men have a Wind and Fire affinity, while the Lion-men have only a fire affinity? Though the Lion-men’s fire affinity seems several times stronger than their Hawk-men’s fire affinity.’

Dilan didn’t take long to comprehend several clues that he could pick up while watching the fight.

Using all their might, the Lion-men charged forward with the spears they wielded as the 10 mutated Bison were still 20 meters away._-.

The moment the spears were thrust forward out, the blazing flames, which shrouded the spear tips, were shot out. The burning spears flew through the air as they soared toward the mutated Bisons.

At the first glance, the blazing spears that had been shot out seemed slow. This was only obvious because they had been created without the use of much mana.

But when Dilan felt a strong gust of wind brushing on his face he realized what was going on.

‘They used minimal mana to create the blazing spear before shooting it out. This drastically reduces the time required to manifest the attack as well.

Meanwhile, the Hawk-men use their wind affinity to accelerate the blazing spear’s speed, which in turn, drastically increases the attack’s lethality…’

If a single individual were to do everything by himself, it would drain lots of mana. But it was thanks to the six beings’ teamwork that they didn’t even use two units on average to create a total of 4 lethal attacks.

Even if the mutated Bisons’ hide was extremely tough, the Bisons were not strong enough to block the advance of the four accelerated blazing spears.

They pierced through four mutated Bison, damaging them severely in an instant.

Dilan felt like clasping his hands together at this sight because even he was not able to eliminate his opponent so fast without using a high amount of mana!

Fortunately, he quickly regained his senses and kept watching the battle that turned even worse for the mutated Bisons’ as the blazing spears were fired in quick succession one batch after another.

Dilan didn’t feel any pity for the mutated animals that succumbed to the terrifying destructive force of the two Hawk-men and four Lion-men.

He was simply observing their battle waging in front of him and not giving in to the urge to fight against the foreign races rising from the depths of his consciousness.

‘Get your act together, Dilan!! You’re not here to fight… You need information…INFORMATION!!’

Dilan had to start shouting at himself inwardly to get back to his senses. His body was itching for a fight and so was his mind.

However, there were other things he had to do than launch a massacre.

He was barely able to calm down enough to see that the Lion-men pierced their spears in the head of the defeated Bison before pulling the mutated animals’ Essence crystals out of their brains.

They absorbed it immediately after giving the Hawk-men their share.

Afterward, the Lion-men moved their hand around in a unique way before the spear they had been holding shrunk in size.

Their spear morphed and reduced to the size of a pen, which gave them the necessary space in their hands to start carrying the heavy mutated Bison corpses back to the Sun temple.

When Dilan saw how their spear had shrunk, he was astonished.

If it had been before his encounter with the Penta Item Pouch, Dilan would have been utterly flabbergasted.

But fortunately, he already had the Penta Item Pouch hanging around his belt, which he subconsciously patted to reassure himself.

He smiled while looking at the six foreign beings before he got up from the ground.

‘Is it my time to shine now?’

His moves were slow and deliberate, which was why nobody noticed when Dilan was exposed.

However, the moment he took the first few steps toward the six beings, who were dragging the mutated Bison corpses through the snow, he was noticed by them.

Dilan didn’t mind exposing himself. In fact, that had been his plan after gauging his opponents’ strength.

Regarding power and brute strength, Dilan was confident of being stronger than the four Lion-men and the two Hawk-men.

There were three main factors to determine one’s strength after the Primordial Ascension had occurred.

Stats, abilities, and items.

Stats could be labeled as the most basic and fundamental factor for strength. One could attain superhuman strength and speed from stats alone.

On the other hand, abilities were a factor that relied on certain stats to be unleashed. This didn’t include all abilities but most active abilities were utilized through mana.

That means to attain superhuman powers one requires both stats and abilities.

Last but not least were items. They increased one’s stats just by wearing them. Certain items even provided skills or other unique functions that even allowed low-leveled ascenders or unleveled ascenders to become superhuman existences with a single item!

While taking note of his opponents’ strength, Dilan continued to advance toward the foreign beings, who had stiffened upon sensing him.

They were carrying heavy corpses as well, preventing them from moving rapidly all of a sudden. Thus, he didn’t have to fear not being able to run away if something were to go wrong.

Nonetheless, Dilan lifted his arms as he approached the foreign beings to show that he was not hiding any weapons.

“Hello, my name is Dilan Cier. Who do I have the pleasure of meeting with?”

He was trying his best to sound calm but his first encounter with foreign intelligent races was something that excited him.

However, the Lion-men and Hawk-men were far from being as excited as Dilan.

They looked at him with squinted eyes before growling out something in an incomprehensible language.

“Shakrian vulnasmif oriagha snautraf!!”

When Dilan heard this, he halted in his tracks before knitting his brows.

‘Was it smart of me to approach them if they cannot even understand me…?’
