Along with a sound impulse was a ripple in the space with him at the center. It expanded to about 5 meters and happened in the blink of an eye.
It was the very image of Intimidation ability.
After it invaded the Adult Brown Swine's senses, the swine trembled in fear.
The reason why Jem provoked it using the skin of the same monster was, it increased the effectiveness of the Intimidation ability once the target had an unstable temperament. Though he wasn't sure if it would provoke the beast, luckily, it did.
In this state, it was easier to invade the target's mind and usurp.
The target would feel a strange feeling of fright towards the caster. Jem himself experienced it by himself, so he knew how it felt.
It imposes heavy pressure on the target in which the target would feel as though the gravity's intensity had multiplied. And just by looking at the caster, the victims felt as though they were peering into the abyss.
Taking advantage of the situation, he quickly rushed towards it. The trembling Adult Swine stepped back after seeing him coming. But no, it was too afraid to move and the heavy pressure was pressing it down.
A long horizontal wound, from its head towards its tail, registered on the Adult Brown Swine's body.
He didn't go for a stab as he feared the length of the claw knife would not be enough to cause a deep wound.
After causing pain on it, the swine snapped from his Intimidation ability. He already expected it to happen. However, the long wound he dealt on it was enough to weaken the beast.
The swine was wailing in agony while staggering until it fell on the mud. Then, it was intensely thrashing its body like a fish caught in the net.
Its wailing voice echoed towards the distance, going weaker and weaker as the voice traveled farther and farther.
Blood and mud blended into a more gruesome scene. The dark furs of the beast now look dirtier. But even with its injury, it still managed to get up and move away from him.
Noticing the beast trying to run away, 'Like hell, I'll let you escape!' Jem shouted in mind as he summoned Ex-energy on his left arm and stabbed the escaping wounded beast using his Stretching Arm ability.
The stab hit its hind leg, causing the beast to fall once again.
Jem did not waste the chance and took advantage of its weakening state.
[You Killed a C-rank Beast Adult Brown Swine!]
[Obtainable Parts: Swine Fur, Swine Meat, Swine Bone, Swine Claw, Swine Tusk!]
[Congratulations, Smite ability is now available in Trading Shop!]
Such notifications came one after another.
Jem made a deep and long sigh after killing it. For some reason, he suddenly felt so tired.
He took a quick inspection in his Status System.
The Stretching Arm ability costs 20 Ex-energy points while the Intimidation ability costs 30.
After using both the Intimidation and Stretching Arm ability, he had 5 Ex-energy points left. No wonder he felt so spent. He was attacked by a body ailment that was known as Phantom Fatigue.
It was the condition of the body that most Ex-humans experienced after exhausting their Ex-energy.
Well, he learned it from the Academy.
Even though he was exhausted, he pulled the dead swine to a safer area. Then he began dismantling the valuable parts.
Manually dismantling the beast of its valuable parts was always a lot of work. He wished there was a shortcut to it.
It would be fine doing it if he was in a safe place, but here in this dungeon, he felt anxious doing it every time.
Jem was continuously taking off the parts; he directly traded them after dismantling.
