BXBX NOVEL Chapter 149 - Who Said My 'Luck' Is Over?
\'Swoosh\'
\'Puchi\'
Henrick didn\'t even move from his place and simply waved his hand when the red-eyed black raccoon was within a hand\'s distance.
\'Just a rank 1 beast,\'
Henrick shook his head at the confidence levels of a rank 1 beast.
\'Ding,
Killed a rank 1 red-eyed black raccoon
No crude soul gained.
Just like always, after killing, he got a system notification informing about the kill; however, this time, instead of pure internal fire energy, it showed a crude soul.
\'So, in the inheritance building, I will not gain any pure internal fire energy from killing the beasts,\'
Henrick learned another thing about the trials and focused on the crude soul.
"No crude soul,"
Henrick just muttered in his head seeing the system notification. He was not disappointed for not gaining a crude soul but looked for other beasts.
\'Swoosh\'
\'Swoosh\'
Just as he took a couple of steps, a couple of the same type of raccoons jumped onto him aiming at his throat.
\'Die\'
\'Puchi\'
Just when they were about to cut his throat, he caught them with his hands and crushed their neck.
\'Ding,
Killed a rank 1 red-eyed black raccoon
No crude soul gained.
\'Ding,
Killed a rank 1 red-eyed black raccoon
A crude soul gained.
Soon, two system notifications appeared in front of them and one of them gave a pleasant surprise to him.
\'Excellent\'
\'My luck is better than I think,\'
Henrick related the gain of the crude soul to his luck and continued to move forward.
Every now and then, the red-eyed black raccoon jumps at him to their suicides; however, after gaining one crude soul, Henrick didn\'t get another crude soul even after he killed more than 20 rank 1 beasts.
\'Where is my luck? Have I used all of it?\' Henrick felt his luck was completely used and felt a little sad because if it was continued like this it was impossible for him to buy even a high-level fire fruit from the soul store.
"Damn it. I need to find a beast den or lair; only then I can feel the excitement from the battle and at the same time I can some crude souls,"
Henrick clenched his fist and decided to search for a beast lair where a group of beasts live.
There would be more chances for him to gain crude souls from killing a group of beasts at once.
\'They are...\'
Just as he was thinking to find a beast den or lair, he saw hundreds of rank 1 and rank 2 beasts in the distance.
\'Ding,
Beast name:- Two-headed mountain bull
Strength:- Rank 2
Skills:- Pound, rush, Head slam, body strengthen.
Description:- An earth type beast that is known for its defensive power. The number of heads depends on the rank of the beast.
\'Ding,
Beast name:- Mountain bull
Strength:- Rank 1
Skills:- Pounch, rush.
Description:- An earth type beast that likes to live in herds; however, they are very scared and use all these skills in escaping.
Note:- When the mountain bulls stay in the herd, their power doubles.
\'Holy heavens. There are might be more than a thousand rank 1 and rank 2 mountain bulls combined together,\'
Henrick was excited first; however, once he thought about his attacking strategy, he felt there were many dangerous in killing the mountain bulls.
\'One, once I kill a single mountain bull, the rest of the mountain bulls will be scared and rush in various directions and if my luck is not good, then I will be dead before I can kill another mountain bull,\'
\'Two, tall the mountain bulls are grazing grass and once he goes there, I will be attacked by the sparrows from the sky,\'
Henrick was not a reckless person to directly use brute strength. So, he thought of a solid plan to kill those mountain bulls.
\'Looks like I need to take some risk; otherwise, there is no meaning for the trial,\' Finally, Henrick thought of a plan with some risk in it and convinced that he should go with that plan.
\'If it works, I can venture everywhere in the trial,\'
Henrick revealed a small smile as he walked out of the area filled with trees.
However, he didn\'t go much distance before looking at the sky.
\'Screech\'
As expected, all the sparrow-like birds screeched as they rushed at him.
"Burning spear, it\'s your time to shine,"
\'Swoosh\'
Without wasting a single minute, he summoned his rank 3 weapons from his inventory and threw it at one of the rank 1 mountain bulls which was near to him.
\'Puchi\'
\'Obaa\'
The rank 3 spear didn\'t have any spear as it directly pierced through the neck of the mountain and it lifelessly fell to the ground.
Just as the single-headed mountain bull fell to the ground, all the mountain bulls stopped grazing and looked at their fallen member before started rushing in various directions while using all their skills like a rush, pound and other skills.
\'Ding,
Killed a rank 1 mountain bull.
A crude soul gained.
\'Swoosh\'
As for Henrick, he didn\'t bother to check the system notification as his life was at stake now.
Without wasting any time, he rushed towards the mountain bull he just killed and took it as his shelter from the sparrow birds and madly rushing mountain bulls.
\'Swoosh\'
\'Thud thud\'
The sparrow didn\'t stop their rushing at Henrick and the mountain bulls also continued to rush as fast as they could.
\'Puchi\' \'Kacha\'
Just when the sparrows reached the place where Henrick threw his spear, they collided with the madly rushing bulls and became mincemeat.
\'It\'s working,\'
Henrick was excited that his plan was working as he had expected.
He noticed that the sparrows collided into the ground when he first arrived at this location. So, he assumed that even if their target escaped, they were unable to change their position directly until they hit the ground.
\'Ding,
Killed a rank 2 slayer sparrow
Two crude souls gained.
\'Ding,
Killed a rank 2 slayer sparrow
No crude souls gained.

\'Ding,
Killed a rank 1 slayer sparrow
No crude soul gained.

\'Ding,
Killed a rank 1 slayer sparrow
A crude soul gained.
While Henrick was excited that his plan was working, he received a tone of system notifications that gave him quite a shock.
\'What the hell? So, I will get kill notifications even if I didn\'t kill them by myself?\'
He really didn\'t expect that not only his plan worked but he also gained quite a number of crude souls.
The flock of birds contained more than 100 birds in it and because of the rank 1 and rank 2 mountain bulls, 90 percent of the birds were killed and the remaining 10 or so birds were injured and waiting for their death.
\'Ding,
Killed a rank 1 slayer sparrow
No crude soul gained.
.
.
.\'Ding,
Killed a rank 1 slayer sparrow
A crude soul gained.
Soon, all the injured slayer sparrows were also killed by the stampede of the mountain bulls and once again gained some crude souls from them.
\'Haha...who said I used all my luck? Isn\'t this called \'Luck\'?\'
Henrick was over the moon with the unexpected outcome of his plan.
