Talent Swallowing System
Chapter 583 Moonstone Rose

[To clear the third floor of the God Tower, please collect 10 Moonstone Roses in a day]

As soon as Leo got teleported to the third floor, he was not given any time to check his surroundings as Heaven's Voice announced the challenge for the third floor of the God Tower.

"Moonstone Roses? How do they look and where can I replace them?"

It was Leo's first time hearing about the Moonstone Roses, so he asked Heaven's Voice about them.

[Moonstone Roses are said to glow in the moonlight. So, the challenger can easily recognize them when he sees them]

[Also, the challenger doesn't need to worry about the moon as it will stay in the sky for an entire day]

Soon, Leo got the reply from Heaven's Voice, making him nod his head in understanding.

'Since collecting the Moonstone Roses is a challenge, they must be quite valuable. I wonder whether I will get to keep the ones I collected.'

Even though Leo didn't know the uses of the Moonstone Roses, he hoped to keep the roses he collected for himself.

Even if didn't replace its uses, Leo thought he could give them to the Cute Panda to sell them in the other worlds.

'Anyway, I don't have much time. I have to replace them and collect 10 of them.'

After keeping his thoughts aside, Leo checked his surroundings.

The first thing that caught his eye was the huge moon in the sky.

Currently, he was in open grassland with a radius of 5 kilometers and the grassland was surrounded by a dark forest.

'There seems to be something shining. They might be Moonstone Roses.'

From the dark forest, Leo heard the roars from time to time; however, his eyes were completely on the dim lights in the forest.

'Let's check them out.'

Since it was dark and more than five kilometers away from him, Leo was not sure about the dim lights in the forest. Therefore, he decided to check them out.

'Something is not right.'

Just as Leo was getting closer to his target, he had a bad feeling about something and instantly stopped moving.

'Swiish'

As soon as he stopped, a black-coloured vine appeared out of nowhere and pierced through his shoulder

"Hiss…you are quite a lucky one, puny human."

A hissing sound followed by a dramatic voice resounded from the bushes around Leo.

Even though he heard the voice, Leo was unable to pinpoint the exact location of the speaker.

"Who are you?"

Leo was not surprised to encounter an intelligent life form inside the God Tower as he asked a question while trying to figure out the exact location of that entity.

"You are not qualified to learn about me…hiss."

Soon, Leo got a reply which was still not enough for him to figure out the location.

'If I had the super special talent [Eye of Truth], it would have been a piece of cake for me to see through this darkness and the bushes.'

Leo shook his head as he tried to think of a way to come up with a plan while stopping the bleeding on his shoulder.

"Anyway, just die and become my food. It's been a while since I swallowed a human."

'Swiish'

'Swiish'

In the next second, a huge and thick vine came out of the bushes and wrapped around Leo at an incredible speed.

'Hiss'

At first, Leo tried to free himself; however, it didn't take much time for him to realize that it was useless to struggle anymore.

Hence, he stopped struggling; however, he didn't give up on his life yet as he was ready to use one of his trump cards.

"Hiss…why are you not struggling? Did you give up already?"

The entity hiding in the bushes seemed like it lost interest in Leo when it saw he stopped struggling.

"If you struggled a little bit more, I might have let you live for more time…hiss"

As soon as it finished its words, a huge serpent head came out of the bushes and opened its huge mouth to swallow Leo in a single gulp.

'System, analyze.'

Even when death was only a few moments away from him, Leo didn't want to use his trump card without knowing whether it would work or not.

If it didn't work, a trump card would be wasted which was not acceptable for Leo. Therefore, he asked the system to analyze his opponent and wanted to get some information about it.

'Ding,

Beast Name: Devil Serpent.

Strength: Peak Legend Grade.

More Information: A cunning beast that likes to ambush its prey. It likes to toy with its prey before swallowing it as a whole.

Soon, the information about the serpent appeared in front of Leo.

'Only peak Legend Grade? Then, I got it under control.'

Leo's eyes lit up when he learned about the strength of the devil serpent.

Even though its strength was much higher than his, Leo was not worried too much about it as he already planned on how to take care of it.

'Hiss'

[Legendary Nether Domain - Solo Domain]

Just when the Devil Serpent was about to swallow Leo as a whole, Leo activated his talent.

'Ding,

There is only one enemy detected in the master's surroundings. Selecting the Devil Serpent as the enemy by default.

'Ding,

The strength of the Devil Serpent will be reduced by 50 percent for the next 30 minutes.

It didn't take much time for the effects of the [Solo Domain].

"I want to clear this floor without using any of the rewards I gained from clearing the previous floors."

Leo clenched his fists as he started punching the snake tail that was wrapped around him without bothering to glance at the Devil Serpent.

'Hiss….hiss'

After the reduction of 50 percent in its battle prowess, Leo's raw strength was enough to deal quite a huge amount of damage to the Devil Serpent.

After receiving 10 or so punches, the devil serpent released Leo and hissed at him angrily.

"I am going to punch you to death today."

On the other hand, Leo didn't see the Devil Serpent as his opponent anymore and at the same time, he didn't have any thoughts of letting the Devil Serpent go.

He decided to kill it for ambushing him and if not for his talent, he might have been killed by it.

'Putong'

'Puchi'

.

.

Maybe it was Leo's pent-up anger for not replaceing the Moonstone Roses or hate towards the devil beasts, he continued to punch the devil serpent until all its scales started falling off.

"Human, please spare me…please…"

Initially, it thought it encountered a weak human; however, who would have thought that the human was more devilish than he looked?

Hence, the Devil Serpent started begging Leo to spare its life.

"Spare your life? In your dreams."

Leo paused for a moment to take a breath as he continued to punch.

Despite reducing the devil serpent's battle prowess by 50 percent, it was still a peak legendary-grade beast. So, it would take quite some time for Leo to kill it.

"You…must..be…looking…for…the Moonstone Roses, right?"

Seeing that Leo was not going to spare its life, the devil serpent came up with a plan to save its life, "Without…me you…are not…going to…replace them. So, how about…we make…a deal?"
