Chapter 107 104. Svirgis, so weak
Norris had a dream.
I dreamed that I returned to the ground with the magic crystal mine, and there was an A-grade magic crystal in it.
After selling it, Norris paid off his debts and actually had quite a bit of money left over.
He no longer has to work in the mines every day.
With the money, Norris studied herbology, became a pharmacist, opened a potion shop in Mutewind Town, and lived the stable life he had always dreamed of.
One day, the girl came to the shop.
The girl whose name he didn't even know.
Norris was so excited that he forgot how to greet the guests. Fortunately, the girl spoke first.
He thought the girl was also here to buy medicine, but the girl said:
"Strange? Is this because he is not fully awake yet?"
Then there was a series of crisp slaps.
…
Snap, snap, snap——
When I opened my eyes, I saw a Puji slapping my face back and forth with its tentacles. The force was so light that I could hardly feel it, but the sound was very loud...
???
"Finally you woke up. How are you? Is your mind still clear? Have you been poisoned?"
This sound!
The god of death... No, it's the person who asked me if I wanted to live.
Norris finally distinguished between dreams and reality and remembered what had happened before.
"My body?"
I tried to move my body around and didn’t feel any discomfort. I even felt exceptionally good! ?
“It’s actually really good…”
The moment Norris raised his upper body, a sound similar to metal friction came from his body.
He looked down and saw countless diamond-shaped silver-white scales covering his entire body. Under the illumination of the surrounding fluorescent mushrooms, the flowing colors rose and fell with his breathing.
He raised his hands, and ten silver-like claws seemed to be able to easily tear apart everything in front of him.
What made him feel even more strange was the hole on his right chest. Countless hyphae formed a new structure inside...
What have I become?
Norris looked at a loss in the mushroom house, and even wanted to pinch himself to see if he was dreaming, but his claws were too long to do so.
"Are you awake now?" Lin Jun asked again.
"You... who are you? Why did you turn me into this?" Norris felt like he had turned into a monster.
"I'm the one who saved your life. As for why you became like this, didn't I tell you? It's just a small price to pay for the treatment.
I asked you this once before, did you forget? "
Norris thought about it and it seemed to be true, but he didn't expect it to be this price at the time.
As if he had guessed Norris's thoughts, Lin Jun said again: "Why, knowing that it would turn out like this, you would choose to give up living? In that case, you can choose now."
Norris looked at his sharp claws and swallowed.
Indeed, even if I knew the result, I still didn't want to die...
Lin Jun then comforted:
"There's nothing wrong with this now, isn't Silver Armor beautiful?
To be honest, I didn't expect that the scales and steel bones mixed together would mutate into this color.
Not only is she beautiful, you've also become stronger!"
“Becoming stronger…?”
"Do you want to try it?"
Soon, the two Pujis brought Norris to a small open space in the mushroom forest.
A fat guy came over step by step.
Gulu——
"Do you want me to fight it?"
It's not Norris's fault that he is timid. He really doesn't know how to fight. The only high-level skill he has is the [Chisel] used for mining. He feels intimidated when he sees the fat boy Puji's huge body.
"Of course not."
Just as Norris breathed a sigh of relief, he saw Fatty take out a large wild boar from his stomach.
???
Norris looked at the big guy lying on the ground and still unconscious, and tried hard to recall the monster encyclopedia in the dungeon.
"Could it be a stone-skinned pig?" Norris asked uncertainly.
"answer!"
The Stone Boar does not really have stone skin; the name is just a description.
It is one of the few animal-type monsters that can run around in the sixth-floor botanical garden. It relies on its thick skin and great strength, and is not afraid of being entangled by the plants.
"No, no! How am I going to defeat a monster on the sixth floor!"
Although Norris is level 21, the monsters in the first three levels are difficult to deal with when a real fight breaks out.
"Don't worry, I'll watch you. You won't die."
The Pujis pushed Norris back, and the Stone-skinned Boar slowly woke up at this time. As soon as it woke up, a stone thrown by the Pujis hit it on the head.
The wild boar shook its head and turned around to notice the shiny Norris opposite - the silver armor was really conspicuous.
Faced with the huge wild boar that was as tall as a man when standing up, Norris couldn't muster up any courage and turned around and ran away.
It would have been fine if he didn't move, but as soon as he moved, the wild boar also moved and rushed straight towards him.
【Charge LV3】
It’s not a high-level skill, but with the added weight of the wild boar, the impact is astonishing.
Norris was running away aimlessly without even noticing the wild boar's charge.
The wild boar caught up with him from behind and pushed him up into the air with one push.
Norris slid out a beautiful parabola in the sky, hit the mushroom tree headfirst, and bounced off to the ground.
The panel showed only 15% of his health was gone, but Norris himself didn't know and thought he was going to be killed.
After twisting on the ground for a long time, he finally realized that it was just a little painful, and by then the wild boar had already hit him again.
This time, the stone boar pushed Norris directly under the mushroom tree and kept pushing Norris hard until he was stuck inside.
Norris was also forced into a corner. He tried to hold the wild boar's head with both hands, but unexpectedly his claws easily broke through the wild boar's skin and penetrated into it.
Unfortunately, the stab missed the vital part, and the wild boar went berserk after being injured.
It hit him again and again. Even though the wild boar's tusks were not sharp and Norris' scales were not damaged, his internal organs could not bear it.
Norris spat out a mouthful of blood and became ruthless. He dug his claws into the wild boar's body and pulled hard. Driven by instinct, the magic power in his body gathered to the gap in the right chest.
Bang!
The mushroom cannon exploded with a loud noise at close range, and the impact force blew off most of the wild boar's head. Norris himself was also shaken and rolled a long distance on the ground.
Lin Jun, who was watching the battle, was not panicked at all. Although Norris looked in danger, he actually only had about 60% of his health left, part of which was caused by his own mushroom cannon.
After hiding the ruby, Xiao Hei, who had come to watch the show at some point, commented: "Svirgis, so weak."
Svirgis?
Lin Jun thought for a while before remembering that this seemed to be a general term used by the dragon clan to refer to those who did not deserve to have a name.
Could it be that Xiao Hei also mistook him for a dragon man?
It clearly doesn't even have a tail or wings, and its scales are close to its body, completely different from Xiao Hei's thick scales that stand up. How could you make a mistake?
There’s nothing wrong with the review though – it’s pretty weak.
The skills that Lin Jun equipped Puji with were enough to help him defeat this stone-skinned wild boar, not to mention that Norris had much higher attributes, yet he ended up like this.
But come to think of it, looking at Norris’ previous skill panel, he probably hasn’t fought much.
Lin Jun and Xiao Hei felt that Norris's performance was weak, but Norris himself did not think so at this time.
Norris looked at the stone-skinned boar that fell in front of him, his chest heaving violently.
A strange sense of excitement climbed up his spine, and a mixture of fear, excitement, happiness, and pain filled his brain.
He looked at his hands which were still dripping with blood.
“This is… power!”
