Chris was delighted when he saw his stats.

It was all thanks to that guy called Arthur who had exchanged eight rare fire elemental elements for the corpses of ferocious beasts. If he had known the value of these fire elements, his intestines would have turned green with regret.

The most important thing now was to test how powerful his magic was!

Even Chris, who had never come into contact with magic, could deeply understand what benefits these eight rare fire elements could bring him!

Such a gain was very obvious. Not only did it increase the upper limit of his mana, but it also enhanced his physical strength and reaction time!

Chris had already noticed the monster earlier!

He looked into the bushes and saw a huge green python standing straight up, its tongue flicking out from time to time as if it had seen delicious prey.

Just now, when Chris was meditating, the magic power he emitted attracted many dire beasts and ferocious beasts.

The difference between a dire beast and a demonic beast was only in their understanding of magic!

Therefore, every time there was a powerful magical disturbance, it would definitely attract the attention of countless dire beasts and ferocious beasts!

River had been guarding Chris while he was meditating.

In front of River, be it the lion ferocious beasts or dire beasts that were like a king among ferocious beasts, they were all fragile.

River subconsciously took out the rune sword, and countless fragments gathered together.

However, she was flustered.

Because the fire magical wave that Chris had released was too strong, it had attracted many dire beasts and ferocious beasts over the past hour.

After fighting against so many beasts, her mana had long been exhausted, and there were even some injuries on her body.

Chris noticed all of this.

Using her remaining mana to condense the rune sword was River’s limit.

“Sir, retreat. These dire beasts can’t hurt you.”

Chris laughed. Right in front of River’s disbelieving eyes, Chris stood in front of her.

A lump of fire suddenly appeared in Chris’ hand.

“Although I’m your superior, I can’t always hide behind.”

Looking at Chris’s back, River’s eyes were filled with disbelief.

She was sure that Chris’s strength had not reached bronze level yet.

However, the magic used was definitely above Gold level!

Could this be the effect of the eight rare fire elements?

“Well…” River smiled faintly, then withdrew her remaining magic and sat on the ground.

She suddenly felt relieved.

Back then, she had fought for the Empire, but in the end, the Empire had betrayed her.

And now, the person River was protecting was standing in front of her!

A character panel appeared in front of Chris.

Green Python

Strength: High Dark Iron (Dire Beast)

Skills: Wild Snake Dance, Poison Fang

Strength Evaluation: If it strikes the host, with the host’s current defense, there is no chance of survival!

Note: Magic beyond the silver level can kill it!

Chris only laughed coldly and looked up at the huge python in front of him.

“Powerful hunters often appear as prey. As a dire beast, you can never understand this.”

The python did not understand Chris’s words, but based on its instincts as a creature, the green snake knew that the human in front of it was not someone to be trifled with.

Green pythons were known for their cunning.

Therefore, even though it had noticed the fire elemental magic released by Chris from the start, it did not attack immediately.

This was because it knew that the woman who was guarding the man was definitely not an existence it could provoke. So it waited for the other dire beasts to attack while waiting for its chance.

After confirming that River’s magic power was completely exhausted, it slowly moved out of the shadows.

Now was the time for it to taste these two prey!

But when it saw the flame in Chris’ hand, it stopped.

However, the pause only lasted for an instant.

It could only be killed by magic above silver rank.

How could some inferior magic hurt it?

However, in the next second, Chris threw the flames in the direction of the green python.

“Burning fire.”

The moment the green python touched the flames, it let out a hysterical cry.

Its eyes were filled with disbelief because this was a magic above the gold level!

Otherwise, there was no way it could have been injured!

Furthermore, who would directly use their ultimate move right from the start?

The green python gradually turned into ashes amidst the intense flames, and was dissected automatically.

Notifications appeared in front of Chris.

[Congratulations, you have killed the green python. The corpse has been automatically dissected!]

[Congratulations, you have obtained Dire Beast Snake Meat! A total of 630kg!]

[Congratulations, you have obtained dire beast snake skin!]

[Congratulations, you have obtained Poison Fangs!]

[…]

Chris smiled when he saw this. He then looked at the corpses around him.

Good lord! He had woken up to a huge harvest!

“One, two, three…”

Just the corpses of the dire beasts alone numbered eight!

Chris looked at River and helped her up.

“You did well, River.”

River just nodded and didn’t say anything. If she had been at her peak, she naturally wouldn’t feel tired at all.

However, right now, she really was too exhausted, so she couldn’t reply to Chris.

Chris began to dissect the corpses of the dire and ferocious beasts.

[Congratulations, you have dissected a dire beast corpse and obtained 840kg of dire beast meat!]

[Congratulations, you have dissected a beast corpse and obtained dire beast bones!]

[Congratulations, you have dissected a beast corpse and obtained dire beast skin!]

[…]

After dissecting all the corpses, Chris had an abundant meat again!

At this moment, Whitey flew back from not far away!

However, it was actually holding the corpse of the beast that Chris had seen earlier.

Human-faced spider!
