Soul Devourer Chapter 4 Episode 50 — Loot And A Flash Above
The three upper-tier Dragons: Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Dragon, had all been sent to the afterworld.
Silence ruled the battlefield.
With〈Kowloon〉’s strongest figures defeated, any immediate threat should have been eliminated.
Even so, I couldn’t let my guard down.
I kept my senses sharp, combining direct sight with all detection skills, watching for any sign of movement.
“…Nothing’s appearing at all. I suppose this is one turning point, at least.”
Though relieved, I maintained full alert as I began reviewing the spoils of war.
The most valuable gains from this battle: the Unique Skills.
First, the Unique Skill possessed by Eighth Dragon, Zhang Junyu.
━━━━━━━━━━
【Zero Sever • Oblivion Edge】
- Slashes reflect the skill-holder's “perception”.
- If the skill-holder believes something can be cut, it will be cut; If not, it will not be cut.
━━━━━━━━━━
At last, I understood why Junyu had been able to wound me.
Because he held the obvious belief that “a human can be cut”, his blade had indeed cut me.
Even so, he hadn’t managed to sever my arm.
Without the stat amplification from【Soul Devourer】, my right arm would undoubtedly be lying on the ground right now.
Had I been a Hunter of equal standing, it wouldn’t have been strange if that strike had killed me outright.
Such an exceedingly dangerous Unique Skill now belonged to me.
A weapon in the hands of a demon… that was the perfect description.
Next was the Unique Skill possessed by Sixth Dragon, Chen Suyu.
━━━━━━━━━━
【Explosion Magic】
- Allows casting/launching compressed Mana that can be detonated at will.
- Mana consumption is halved.
- Damage caused is proportional to Intelligence stat.
※ If the original mana cost is [100],【Mana Control】halves it to [50] and, this skill halves it again to [25] for activation.
━━━━━━━━━━
A Unique Skill that inherently halves mana consumption.
Combined with my【Mana Control】, I could spam【Explosion Magic】at absurdly low Mana cost.
And its destructive power increases with Intelligence stat.
With my current stats, I could easily imagine a battlefield erased without a trace.
The sheer destructive potential sent a faint chill down my spine.
But this skill, too, was an excellent match for me.
Finally, the Unique Skill possessed by Seventh Dragon, Liu Xingyu.
━━━━━━━━━━
【Adamantite Body】
- Fortifies the body to a hardness equivalent to Mythical-grade armors.
- Does NOT grant “Indestructible” status.
━━━━━━━━━━
Overwhelming defensive power yet, honestly, not well suited to me.
Mythical-grade equipments possess the “Indestructible” property.
That is why even my attacks cannot break them.
But【Adamantite Body】lacks that property.
Meaning my blows could potentially shatter the fortifications provided by the skill.
Besides, considering the stat increases from【Soul Devourer】, there is little need for me to harden my body with skills.
Even now, my raw flesh might be able to trade blows with Mythical-grade weapons.
Alright… I should collect their belongings and head back…
But there was something I needed to confirm.
This ambush.
I could not let Chairman Li Wei go without an explanation.
How deeply is he involved?
Depending on his answer, my response would change.
Having steeled myself and prepared to decide my next move-!
“…Huh?”
Suddenly,【Mana Detection】reacted.
The source was directly above me.
I looked up on instinct-!
And in the next instant, my entire field of vision was swallowed by blinding white light.

E/N:
Oh man, if only the Unique Skill granted Indestructibility… MC would have become a Demi-God if not a God.
And, what was that white light in the end, bruh?!
Stay tuned! (2/3 chapter)
