Rioneed: VRMMORPG
Chapter 251

The harsh voice of the system echoed in his mind. Ibro smiled as he knew where he should replace suitable targets. Near any system city, there were areas meant for players to level at.

Ibro moved fast exiting the city heading towards the nearby wilderness. He didn't have any conditions for the monsters he had to kill. Any monster would be enough in his opinion.

He had nearly 18 hours before the arrival of the enemy army. He had to use every single second to prepare more and get stronger.

Ibro moved outside alone. He had the death summon card up his sleeve. Outside the city was a stretch of ruins as a result of the war before.

Ibro had to move a couple of miles before he reached a place full of monsters. These monsters were horned humanoid werewolves. They looked ferocious and were moving in groups.

Ibro didn't risk at once attacking these monsters but kept lurking around for a suitable target. He kept moving for nearly one hour till he found an isolated place that had only one horned werewolf.

Ibro looked at it and decided to give it a try. That werewolf was around 5 meters in height and had a lot of bulging muscles.

It had a strong intimidating jaw and strong claws. Ibro estimated this monster level to be near level 50. That was a good target to practice upon especially if it was a close-range type monster.

At once, he moved towards that monster with steady steps. When he entered the aggro range of this monster, it looked straight into Ibro who kept approaching it.

Ibro was busy simulating his combined strike in his mind. He was imagining all the possible situations he would face and how he would adjust his body to have the right stance.

This strike move was really complex, but he was sure he would master it with time. Once Ibro became less than 7 meters of it, the werewolf moved at once.

Ibro had to admit that this monster speed exceeded his expectations, but it was under his control. Ibro didn't start attacking this monster, but he played a little with it.

He wanted to assess these monster capabilities. After nearly half a minute, Ibro had estimated nearly this monster's stats. That monster used speed coupled with strength in its attacks.

It was pretty fast considering its large body. Ibro didn't know if this monster had strong defenses also or not, but he assumed so.

Ibro then evaded one of this monster's hits and started to take the stance position. His first try failed as his body wasn't used to this sudden change of positioning in a short time.

'As I expected, I need some time to adapt.'

Ibro then started to evade and train his stance. Although he succeeded more than once in his stance, he didn't rush to attack the monster.

After he succeeded a couple of times in a row and felt he had grasped the feeling needed he started to use the second movement step. Again, he failed in this step.

This step was much harder than the first two as he had to adjust every part of his body even if he was flying in the sky. He kept dancing with an already frustrated monster that had entered its berserk state.

Ibro failed one time after another but he didn't stop experimenting even once. After dozens of failings, he finally succeeded. He didn't rush to the third step as he tried again and again.

He knew that his time was limited so he had to train harder. After nearly one hour of constant fighting with this monster, Ibro had grasped the first and second steps successfully.

He only lacked that final move that was still a mystery to him. When he decided to use his third step, he was evading a claw attack from this monster as he jumped high in the sky.

It was already night and the monster got more boost from the night. Ibro took the stance of his strike in middle air, moved his sword from high position towards that monster head.

He wanted to strike the most vulnerable part with the lowest possible defense. His sword moved as he recalled the illustration regarding the last step… the strike.

As illustrated, he hit his sword simply on the head of the monster to feel a sudden surge of his internal power. He didn't feel this storm like feeling from his dantian only but from every cell of his body.

He felt he was about to explode. He didn't imagine his body contained all this energy. Something was drawing this energy constantly. This strike was like a year for him.

Once his whole body energy got mixed, it passed through the sword. Ibro felt his whole body ache from this single attack. Once the energy passed through the sword, grayish-black boiling bubbles appeared around the sword itself.

An image of a small dragon appeared tilting its body around that sword and drilled inside the monster head. The monster stood motionless as if it couldn't evade such a simple attack.

When the dragon entered its body, this werewolf body jolted many times before it lost all the strength and fell on the ground. Ibro landed on the ground too with heavy breaths.

He felt his body was empty from any form of energy. In his desperate state, he felt a sudden surge of a warm strong energy entering his body replenishing it.

Ibro felt his body like a dried-up well had tasted the sweet rain after decades of dryness. Strength came back to him stronger than before.

He moved from the ground feeling better than before. He was surprised, was this PSR energy?

'You did the strike in the clumsiest way I have ever seen. You should try to control your power leak. You can't just dry yourself up every time you use the strike, do you understand?'

Ibro knew that the system comment was on spot. He felt how strong was this strike as it killed nearly level 50 monsters with just one hit.

Ibro tried to recall the past feeling as he was trying to figure out how he could control this power flow. It was a new world opened there for him as he explored it slowly.

Ibro didn't have any praise skills so he just stored what fell from the monster after it was killed. He didn't lack money now, as he had mountains of gold coins stored in his ring.

He then moved with more confidence looking for another monster. He knew how valuable controlling his energy flow was. In the upcoming battle, he wouldn't face one opponent at a time.

He had to master this. He noticed that the sword strike he used was still in the available section. That meant he didn't master it yet.

'What about PSR energy, have you managed to collect some?' Ibro asked while looking for his next prey. He only felt the energy that entered his body and didn't discover any presence of other energy.

'Sure, I got some energy from that monster. The issue is that the monster didn't provide enough energy for you to feel it.'

'Any energy is good energy. Tell me, how much I lack before unlocking your next function?'

'Let's see… hmm … you got only 2 SPR units from that monster and you need 1 million units to unlock the next function. You can sum yourself.'

Ibro was speechless! He didn't know that the task of unlocking a new function for that system was that hard. He thought about something before asking:

'What about SPR stones? How many units do you need to form a single stone?'

'Each 1000 SPR units form one SPR stone.'

That was really difficult and long. He needed 500 SPR stones to unlock the cheapest ability for this system. He needed more to unlock the god-like scout ability. Ibro sighed.

It seemed he would face a long journey here till he became stronger. He didn't mind though, he missed this game life after all. It didn't take him long to replace another lone werewolf.

This time he didn't play with it, he wanted to master his last step well. This time ended like the last try. The next few also ended with the same fate. At his tenth monster, he started to control this energy flow.
