Chapter 1013 Eighth Class Resources

Chapter 1013  Eighth Class Resources

As Lauren and Nina's group prepared for their imminent action against the 6th stage vampires, Vicente was on the third day of searching for his 14th pentagram after getting the previous one.

In those two days, the Cursed Compass led them to confrontation against high level 7th stage beasts and even to an escape from an 8th stage creature. But on the occasions when the group prospered, he got valuable resources to become a more powerful Real Sorcerer.

On three occasions, he got Eighth Class resources, completing more than half of the resources needed to perform an 8th stage ritual.

In the middle of the afternoon today, when the group was moving on with their search, Vicente saw the compass working again. He led his team towards a potential Eighth Class resource, something that could well be under protecting one of Fallsor Bluff's strongest beings!

Vicente's companions followed more closely behind him, clinging to their defensive or support items, while Rex was at his master's side.

Vicente reached into the surrounding woods in search of signs of what the Cursed Compass was leading him to. The compass didn't show any signs if you were more than a few hundred meters from the feature it was picking up. As soon as it showed 'life', one could already be very close to the resource.

Letting his senses scan his surroundings, Vicente slowed down, sensing something powerful ahead. But this something wasn't exactly a resource with immense potential for him, but someone who made him stop and frown.

He stopped a little ahead of his companions, in a position near a gorge. From there, he could see a creature with a thin white body, four semi-transparent wings with golden dots around its structure, and eight eyes on its head.

The creature seemed to be collecting something, which Vicente immediately understood what it was.

'An insect of light! It's taking the Dawn Salt!' Vicente identified not only the type of beast and the resource showed by the compass, but he also sensed the indigo pentagram inside that 1-Star 8th stage creature!

His companions stopped behind him while he thought about what to do. From where he was, he could still retreat and pretended he hadn't seen anything. The creature would hardly look for trouble while it was with a 'mine' of Dawn Salt, something that could take it to the middle of the 8th stage. In the meantime, the group could continue searching the area and avoid a dangerous confrontation.

But Vicente had promised his companions that if they didn't replace a beast compatible with him within four days, they would set off on their next mission. Now there were only 18 hours left, so he was on the brink. If he gave up on the insect ahead, he probably wouldn't get anything else out of the trip.

'If I want the Dawn Salt, I'll have to fight the Rebirth Butterfly. And if I want that insect's pentagram, I'll end up getting the Dawn Salt... That's the best situation I could replace!'

A smile formed on Vicente's face as he strongly considered the idea of challenging a Grand Magus and getting the pentagram from that Light Path creature.

He looked at his companions, and Larissa spotted the problem on Vicente's smile.

"The beast with my future pentagram is right in front of us," he said quietly, making everyone tense up.

"What is its cultivation?" the group's Beast Tamer asked.

"1-Star?"

"Grand Magus..." Vicente completed, while even Rex looked at him with an apathetic look on his face.

"Grand Magus?" Larissa opened her mouth as she paled, wondering what kind of thing Vicente might have in mind.

There were certainly several Light Path creatures with indigo pentagrams with 8th stage cultivation all over Light Cay. But they wouldn't go up to any of them on purpose because doing so was tantamount to defying death.

Even the group's Formation Master, Alchemist and Beast Tamer working together couldn't do much to change the outcome of a confrontation against such a powerful creature. Given the enormous difference in cultivation between them and the enemy, their actions would almost be like trying to beat the sea with a small fire.

Vicente smiled at his companions' behavior and said, "You should retreat now. Give me what might be of some use against a Rebirth Butterfly and back away. The battle will be destructive."

The Beast Tamer watched the Alchemist and the Formations Master hand Vicente what they thought might be useful, while she herself sighed.

"I have nothing useful against beasts like that. Rebirth Butterflies are tricky to deal with. They have powerful affinities with light and can illuminate an entire forest in the middle of the night, driving away the darkness and strengthening the light itself. It's the middle of the day now, so it's at one of its strongest moments. Nothing I give you will help."

Vicente was grateful for the warning as he watched the group retreat. Meanwhile, he focused on the creature, which was using its legs to grab more of the Dawn Salt from the area ahead.

Vicente appeared floating behind the creature, an insect as big as an adult human.

The creature looked back with disdain for a moment, but then changed its ways. Suddenly, 13 pentagrams appeared around Vicente, 8 of them indigo, and 5 cyan. In particular, the last of Vicente's indigo pentagrams shone strongly, emitting a golden light that paralyzed the surrounding space.

"I hadn't used this skill on Light Cay yet. Time for me to use the Throne of Light to its fullest," Vicente said as he decided to beat his opponent not by using his darkness, but by using light!

The light in the surroundings came to a standstill. At some points, it condensed into golden weapons, which then flew at the opponent staring at Vicente.

The golden throne behind Vicente glowed brightly as his first skill also showed its effect, with Light Suppression creating a glowing domain belonging to its user.

Even though it was an 8th stage beast, the creature felt pressured as the enemy began its attack!
