Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 384 Kill

Heath instantly felt a huge force coming from his palm, and it swept towards his body at an extremely fast speed. For a moment, Heath only felt his entire body shake violently. It was as if he had been heavily hit by a high-speed carriage.

Boom! A deafening sound rang out.

Heath’s entire body flew backward heavily. Behind him was a row of crisscrossed trees. Every tree was at least as thick and sturdy as a Treant. However, at this moment, Heath only heard a series of ‘ka ka’ explosions as the trees were broken one by one.

“Sir Wizard!”

“Sir Wizard!”

The Underground Gnomes’ expressions changed greatly. Albert hurriedly rushed over with a few Underground Gnomes.

The original forest had been completely turned into ruins at this moment. The broken trees were scattered everywhere. Large patches of branches and leaves collapsed, and the entire ground was covered with a thick layer of dust.

“Cough!” A light cough sounded.

A figure slowly stood up from the dust. Bright silver metal wrapped around his entire body. The mercury-like material was now covered with scattered small stones, broken wood, and various other materials. It was as if he had just been hit by a violent storm.

The best thing was that although these broken stones were deeply embedded, they could not penetrate the mercury shield. Of course, they could not harm the inverted figure protected under the shield.

Seeing that Heath was safe and sound, the Underground Gnomes who had rushed over heaved a sigh of relief.

Albert quickly asked, “Sir Wizard, are you alright?”

Heath waved at him casually. “I’m fine.”

He looked at the Nightmare in front of him with a gloomy expression. Although he had predicted that the power of this thing would not be too low, the result of this collision was still far beyond Heath’s expectations.

One had to know that he had been a Grand Knight for many years now. During these years, he had not forgotten to increase his strength. With the help of magic and the system, his strength had increased steadily. Until now, he had reached an extremely high level of strength.

At this level of strength, even if it was against an intermediate to advanced-level demonized beast that was known for its strength, Heath had a certain degree of confidence that he would have the upper hand no matter how weak he was. However, he had been easily defeated by this monster. This was really beyond Heath’s expectations.

“Interesting.” After a short period of staring at it, the corners of Heath’s mouth could not help but curl up. Although he had suffered a loss against this thing, this thing had also aroused Heath’s desire to fight. Fighting against powerful creatures and constantly surpassing oneself, this was the purpose of a Knight holding a sword.

Clang!

A loud sword chime exploded. Heath raised the Red Demon greatsword with both hands again.

At the same time, the Nightmare seemed to have sensed something. The four green bean-like organs locked onto Heath’s body.

Heath raised his eyebrows. ‘So this thing has a mind? I thought it was just a pure malicious substance!’

He felt that he was getting more and more interested in this thing.

“Roar!” the Nightmare roared and charged at Heath with all his limbs once again.

At the same time, Heath held the Red Demon greatsword tightly and charged straight at the Nightmare. In the blink of an eye, the two huge forces collided heavily once again.

Boom!

That thunderous boom once again exploded in the forest.

This time, Heath, who was prepared in advance, was not blasted out by the Nightmare again. Instead, he was in a stalemate in the air.

As the two of them collided, with the two of them at the center, the air distorted and a surge of gas exploded like a cloud bomb exploding on the ground. The shockwave spread out in the surroundings at an extremely fast speed.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! A series of muffled sounds rang out. Wherever the gas passed, trees flew, and even the soil and gravel on the ground were lifted up. The entire ground was destroyed in an instant.

“What… What terrifying damage…” “Is this… is this the power of a Wizard? It’s too terrifying…” The Underground Gnomes were stunned. This level of power was completely beyond the imagination of weak creatures like them. Just a single attack had destroyed the entire forest. It was truly terrifying.

“Roar! Roar! Roar!”

A fierce roar sounded. The other Nightmares that were spread all over the surroundings turned their heads and locked onto Heath.

The powerful momentum caused by the fight between the two had attracted the attention of the monsters. They had realized that Heath was not the same as the Underground Gnomes.

“Communication? Is it a group battle consciousness?”

Heath noticed that after the monsters locked their eyes on it, they seemed to be whispering to each other. Heath could even feel a faint spiritual fluctuation from them.

“This spiritual fluctuation…”

For some reason, Heath felt that this spiritual fluctuation seemed somewhat familiar. It should be very similar to a certain creature that he knew, but exactly what kind of creature… for a moment, Heath was unable to identify it.

“Forget it, I’ll just bring them back and dissect them for experiments.”

Having made up his mind, Heath once again attacked these Nightmares with the Red Demon greatsword in his hand.

Through the previous exchange, Heath had basically figured out the strength of these monsters. Their abilities were mainly focused on the physical aspect. They had abnormal strength and constitution, and extraordinary speed… With these abilities, they could withstand most of the damage. They could also possess destructive power and strong speed that could not be captured by the eyes.

But in the end, they were only physical-type creatures. They couldn’t use ever-changing magic. This was their weakness.

Immediately, Heath activated his spirit net to attack these monsters. He thought that he could easily destroy them, but reality disappointed him. When his spirit net swept over, these monsters were unexpectedly protected by a spirit shield. As a result, when Heath’s spiritual network hit them, it met resistance.

Although Heath quickly broke through the spiritual protection of the monsters, when he once again activated his spiritual power in an attempt to destroy the consciousness of these monsters, he was stunned again.

This was because at this time, he realized that the spiritual sea of these monsters was already a paste-like substance. To use a pictographic analogy, he was finally able to pry open the enemy’s skull and was prepared to destroy the enemy’s brain. However, when he opened the skull, he was surprised to find that the brain in the head was already in tatters.

‘What the h*ll is this thing?!’

Heath was a little speechless.

It must be known that no matter what kind of creature was in this world, as long as it was able to act on its own and had its own consciousness, it would definitely have a complete spiritual sea and its own spiritual forcefield.

However, the monster in front of Heath did not have a spiritual forcefield at all. To be exact, its spiritual sea was actually paste. This situation had clearly exceeded Heath’s original understanding of things.

“I must dissect them and take a look!”

The curiosity in Heath’s heart flourished.

The battle continued.

Since the spiritual force direction could not destroy these monsters, Heath could only return to the original physical level.

Although the physical attributes of these monsters were exaggerated to a crazy degree, in the face of magic, these physical attributes were still too weak.

Under the premise that Heath did not cast any magic, these monsters could still rely on their physical attributes to fight with Heath. It could even be said that they could firmly suppress Heath. However, when Heath began to cast spells… they were not enough. The first to be pushed up by Heath was his signature skill (Indestructible).

He had used fire magic to launch the first attack because he had just seen Shaman Kerza’s attack on the Nightmares. Kerza had also used a fire spell at that time, and this fire spell had directly destroyed three Nightmares. Although the first reason was that the powerful fire spell Kerza had cast had the power of rules, Heath guessed that the fire spell had a certain restraining factor on these Nightmares. This was also an important reason. His guess was quickly confirmed. When Heath’s Indestructible attack was aimed at the first Nightmare, the scorching flames immediately engulfed the Nightmare’s entire body. The mud-like substances were burned by the flames and made a sizzling sound, it quickly melted and disappeared in the flames. “Roar!”

In the meantime, the Nightmares that were unwilling to die just like that roared again and again. They immediately surrounded and attacked Heath with a few companions. They seemed to be able to determine that Heath was the source of the flames on their bodies. They could even tell that after destroying Heath, they would be able to dispel the flames on their bodies.

However, Heath obviously would not let them have their way. Before the Nightmares surrounded him, he immediately cast (Extreme Speed) on himself. This was an official level support spell. Its purpose was to give himself a powerful speed buff.

After the Extreme Speed buff, Heath’s already outstanding speed had once again increased by another level. His movements were as if he had teleported. Even if he casually dodged, he would be able to leave afterimages in the air.

This speed was already far beyond the Nightmares’ level. Previously, Nightmares’ speed was only slightly faster than his, and was even on par with him. Now, once Heath’s speed increased, it was impossible for them to catch him.

Even though Nightmares had already used all of their strength to quickly surround and annihilate Heath, every time they charged over, Heath would turn into an afterimage and dodge to another place.

After gaining the advantage in speed, Heath did not fight these Nightmares head-on anymore. In any case, he only wanted to test the strength of these things before he continued to fight them. Now that he knew what he needed to know, there was no need to waste his energy fighting them.

Zi zi, zi zi! The crisp sizzling sound continued.

Unable to chase Heath, these monsters were doomed and could only continue to accept the eternal burning. The Nightmare’s body of the mud was burned by Heath bit by bit.

This situation did not last long. After about a few minutes, a burning Nightmare could not hold on any longer. With a rumble, it fell to the ground, completely turned into a clump of debris.

“Roar! Roar!”

The death of their companion infuriated the remaining Nightmares. A few mud balls suddenly rose up from the bodies of the Nightmares and exploded. Then, their speed increased by a large margin. They were almost catching up with Heath’s speed. ‘What is this? Magic? Why is there no spiritual fluctuation?!’

Heath was extremely surprised.

The speed of the Nightmares that was so weak just a moment ago suddenly increased was beyond his expectations. What he did not understand was why these Nightmares did not release any elemental fluctuation or spiritual fluctuation before they accelerated.

Could this not be magic?

With this doubt in his heart, Heath continued to dodge methodically.

ce

Although the Nightmares’ speed had suddenly increased by a large margin, it was still slower than Heath’s speed by more than a level. With the boost from the speed buff, it was basically impossible for them to catch up to Heath.

Although they could not catch up to Heath, they could still maintain a short distance from him, which made the following battle very troublesome for Heath.

After all, other than his innate spell [Indestructible), which could be cast freely without any hindrance, the rest of his spells required him to chant incantations and runic gestures. In other words… He needed to create a sufficient distance between him and the Nightmares to cast spells. Currently, this distance was far from enough for him to cast a complete spell. After casting the spell, (Indestructible) entered the stage of mental paralysis. During the mental paralysis stage, he was unable to cast the spell again.

Could it be that he could only hide here and there with a dirty look on his face?

Although he could still win this way, it was obviously not in line with Heath’s style. Therefore, after dodging for a moment, he once again brandished the Red Demon greatsword and secretly activated the magic in his body.

With his body full of magic power, Heath slashed his sword forward.

“Sword Wind!”

Hu! Hu! The sound of rushing wind could be heard.

This rule-type spell that Heath was used to was once again used. With the help of the combination of rules and sword techniques, thousands of wind blades were summoned in the air. Under the guidance of the Red Demon greatsword, the densely packed wind blades pounced towards the leading Nightmare. For a moment, it was as if a violent storm had been set off in the air.

Pu! Pu! Pu! Pu! Pu!

A series of crisp ‘Pu! Pu!’ sounds rang out. The wind blades that filled the sky tore open one wound after another on Nightmare’s body. In the face of such a dense attack, even a monstrous defense like Nightmares’ could not withstand it at all… In an instant, it was torn into pieces…
