A crisp robotic sound was heard in the ear of Samael, yet due to severe blood loss and dizziness, he could not pay attention to it.
[The energy has been absorbed!]
[System senses host's life is in crisis, exchanging the vital energy for The Hunter Core!]
[The Hunter Core has begun condensing!]
[Due to an inefficient amount of Vital Energy, the Hunter Core will be of random attribute]
Sizzle!
Samael put his hand on his stomach instinctively, then started shuddering on the ground, a soul-crunching pain followed by thunder shock covered his entire body. In the naked eye of some approaching beasts, the bleeding of Samael stopped, and then scars and torn skin began healing rapidly.
A warm surge of current ran through his body, giving him an inexplicable sense of strength, as he could not hold himself back and roared in massive excitement, which intimidated some of the approaching beasts.
"What is this?"
The blue lightning sizzled in his eyes, while Samael looked around, then once again looked around at approaching beasts with cautious nature.
"Why do I feel like hunting them will give me various benefits, I feel hungry for their flesh?"
Samael asked himself with confusion and excitement, his heart was pounding, instead of running, the idea of killing these beasts took over.
"From my body's reaction, it feels like I am much stronger than these beasts, and it's vying for their flesh, but it's not time to question too much. I should act on my brain since it's telling me to hunt, I will hunt then!"
A smile bloomed on his face, the red blood dirtying his white teeth once again. It was a strange scene, a boy was smiling with blood all over his body, as three wolf-shaped-looking beasts approached him.
Swish!
The very first wolf took a natural stance and attacked faster than air passing, but Samael bursted with terrifying momentum and slammed his body on it.
Boom!
The wolf was thrown away with explosive strength, and it whimpered in great pain.
"Haha, come on!"
Samael did not wait for the next one's attack, he pounced directly on the nearest wolf. The wolf's eyes narrowed in fear, and its natural fleeing instinct kicked in, flashing some meters in seconds.
"Die for me!"
He roared, jumping several meters high, and slammed his punch from air to down on the wolf. The second wolf could not even struggle before its inner bones were broken. Even though it was a punch, it felt more like a huge boulder exploding on it.
Howl!
The second wolf howled in great fright and excessive pain, but the third wolf had already fled away long before Samael was attacked by the first wolf.
"That guy sensed the danger before I even attacked? Interesting!"
Samael laughed in cold blood, the second wolf tried to flee with its broken bones, except without bones, it could only slither ahead.
Boom!
The punch landed on its head, smashing its head like a watermelon, the blood spurted from its body spreading like a stream of river. Samael took a deep breath then collected the corpse of the second wolf and put it below the tree.
Howl!
The first wolf which was already slammed into fatal injury by Samael, could not hold on and spurted black blood. Samael placed his attention on this one, walking at a slow pace.
Swish!
The head was separated from the first wolf when a shadow passed by it. Samael stopped covering some more distance, looking at his own unexplainable speed. He stood there for a moment, and then his eyes flickered.
"Should I really eat them? What if they are poisoned or some sort of anomaly?"
Samael pondered, he did eat the flesh of the big boar, because he was dying, and he could not control himself at that time. Leave the control, he was one step away from death, how did he even have time to think? But now, he saw the choice. He has gained newfound strength, and though he was not clear about it, he still wanted to have some information before he acted.
"Forget it, I should return to the village, and then inquire secretly about info related to devouring these wolves."
He made a decision in his heart, which he thought was cautious and good enough to discard the sudden urge of his own body.
"I did hear the voice of some sort of AI? What was it? Is it still there?"
He did hear that crisp sound, but he could not care about it nor he could even understand due to incoherent dizziness."Hello, are you there? Anyone?" He asked in his mind.
[Ding!]
[Hello Host!]
The crisp emotionless female voice sounded in his head again, giving him a sense of relief. Though he was naturally very curious about this new computer sort of voice, he chose to control himself and asked needed questions.
"May I know how you get implanted in my brain?"
Samael had absorbed some of the memories of this life, so he had become calm regarding transmigration and this new world, but even from his memory, he seemed to see no technological advancement, not even a bulb.
[Host and the system are not powerful enough to deduce information related to it!]
[Plz call me system, and ask for functions!]
Though this gave him a very vague answer, he could not do about it, so he nodded and went ahead, "Plz state your functions!"
[I am an assistant, who will help you to absorb various sources of different energies, and can morph the host's strength into different sorts of suitable worlds.]
"What do you mean by the suitable worlds?"
[Not qualified to know!]
"Okay, can you tell me how did I get this strength? I do have a strong conviction that it was due to you?"
[Affirmative!]
"Sure Enough, plz elaborate on your functions and things you did which resulted in such a massive gain of strength"
[Information obtaining....!]
[The system can exchange, convert or morph any sort of energy present in existence. When the host ate the flesh of the creature, it triggered the absorption of hunter energy, and the system helped the host to awaken the hunter core]
[The system used its ability to transform and condense the energy source, but it doesn't have enough information to do anything further]
"You don't know the thing you did?" Samael narrowed his eyes in confusion.
[System derives its information from the memories of the host, hence it was able to transform that specific source of energy!]
Samael nodded. He gained a basic understanding of this system, it could exchange things with respect to any energy, and convert and morph the energy, Though he did not understand the last two, but he understood first. When the hunter energy was gained by him, the system used some sort of exchange and awakened the hunter core in his body.
"But system, I don't feel the energy exchanged. else the hunter energy would be gone, right?"
Samael murmured in his mind.
[Host is right, System can convert the energy into specific aptitude which is required to cultivate, but plz notice, that the aptitude at most would be ordinary]
[In order to exchange the better aptitude, the Host will have to exchange things at the shop using energy exchange!]
[System advises that host should use system space, and store these creatures for further hunter energy extraction]
[Ding!]
[Warning! Extreme danger has been detected, advised to run!]
Swish!
Not even a second, Samael threw both wolves towards system space and ran fastest towards the village. He was a veteran, and with his companions, every word was taken seriously without any question, and he had already regarded the system as his companion in this strange world.
He would not question the level of danger, if system said run, it meant that danger could not be quelled, so he directly fled away with maximum speed.
Roarrrrr! Roaaarrr!Roarrr!
The darkness of night began chasing everything, the beasts hid in their den, trees sunk in extreme fright, while Samael just saw the shadow of boundless darkness. It looked like a Tsunami covering the forest, but he felt terrifying fear, which he did not feel even during the war.
"Faster!Cmon!"
Before the darkness could touch the edge, he already jumped away from the forest, running towards the village in the sight.
