Klaus spent the next four hours sitting on the body of the Flaming Wolf, consuming core after core. He hadn't made much progress leveling up in the past few hours, so he used the ti to close the gap. He added the 400 points he gained from leveling up to level 5 straight into his stamina, which helped him recover much faster.
Although his Star Qi was heavily drained, he still had enough to push his Overlord healing passive skill into overdrive. After consuming hundreds of cores from his earlier hunt and eating so regular food, he managed to recover his stamina and restore about 70% of his Star Qi.
He also boosted his experience points to 32 million, leaving him just a million and so spare coins short of reaching level 6. That level-up was crucial—he needed it for his final target, the Dark Fla Demon Wolf, a really nasty creature that would require every skill in his arsenal.
But for now, his next focus was on the Laser-Eyed Demon Cheetah, one of the most dangerous offensive monsters in the region.
Klaus had seen a post online saying that five years ago, five Great Sages—each as strong as a Tier 7 monster—had tried to take the cheetah down. Only two of them made it out, and they were severely battered.
He even saw a post that said they fell unconscious and only woke up two years later. That was enough to tell him how powerful the Monster was.
That was five years ago, so Klaus knew the beast had likely grown even stronger since then. This ti, he would need to be extra cautious.
He fed the fire core to the Dragon, then started moving toward the region where the Laser-Eyed Demon Cheetah was said to roam. The cheetah is one terrifying monster, known for shooting devastating attacks from its eyes.
It had no other abilities, but that single skill was deadly enough on its own. As they always say, a warrior with on skill that can be used a thousand ways is more dangerous than one with many with less mastery over them.
"Brat, your control over your skills is impressive, as it should be for a Weapons Overlord," the senior said, his tone blunt as always. "But you need to be extra careful when using them. Your last battle was won because your Star Qi is several tis stronger than Spiritual Qi."
The senior's words hit Klaus like a brick. "Had it been Spiritual Qi, you'd be dead by now," he added, dropping the bomb without hesitation.
Klaus nodded, knowing full well that the old man wasn't exaggerating. He really would have died if not for his superior energy source. Star Qi had saved his life in that battle, but it also masked his mistakes.
"You've got to learn when to use a skill and when to hold back," the senior continued, his voice gruff but filled with experience, one that Klaus needed to hear. "Instead of activating everything at once, you should've been strategic. Analyze the situation before unleashing a technique.
You need to learn how to use your abilities without draining so much stamina and Star Qi. That's the key to surviving in the long run. Your current style won't hold well in a large-scale combat"
Klaus felt a twinge of embarrassnt, knowing he had gotten carried away during the fight. His eagerness to end it quickly had led him to recklessly unleash his abilities, burning through energy like there was no tomorrow.
"Thank you, senior," Klaus said sincerely, his voice steady, but there was a weight in his chest. He was grateful for the advice, but it also reminded him that he still had much to learn.
Being a Weapons Overlord wasn't just about raw strength. It was about control, precision, and making every move count. He has control over all weapons, but he has to learn how to effectively learn to use them.
The senior's words echoed in his mind as he continued toward the Laser-Eyed Demon Cheetah's territory. He would have to be smarter this ti. His Star Qi might be powerful, but he couldn't rely on it alone. If he kept wasting energy recklessly, he'd eventually find himself cornered without enough strength to get out.
"I've only got 70% of my Star Qi left," Klaus thought, clenching his fists as he stepped into the domain of the Laser-Eyed Demon Cheetah. "I need to end this battle in five exchanges, or I'll have no choice but to retreat and try again later."
His eyes scanned the area, and his jaw tightened when he saw the massive beast before him. "They keep getting bigger and bigger," Klaus muttered under his breath, locking his gaze onto the 4-ter-tall cheetah standing inside a pool of fire.
"I guess they weren't exaggerating when they said it only has one eye," he added, eyeing the creature's demonic form.
The cheetah was a terrifying sight, its twisted features resembling a monster straight out of a nightmare. Its legs looked like sharp tal blades, and its entire body glowed like molten lava, emitting waves of heat.
But the most terrifying feature was the single dark red eye centered on its forehead. That eye is its weapon, the deadly source of its attacking power. From everything Klaus had read online, once that eye locked onto its target, there was no escape. One shot from that thing, and it was ga over.
Klaus moved discreetly, careful not to draw attention just yet. His mind raced as he ford plans, weighing his options. He needed one precise attack to finish this fight, but the Cheetah would also only need one precise attack to end him.
It would be a deadly ga of cat and mouse, and Klaus wasn't sure if he could defend himself from its laser. He had to be extra careful.
The air was thick with tension, and Klaus could feel the weight of the upcoming battle pressing on him. His heart pounded, but he forced himself to stay calm. If he let his emotions get the best of him, he'd make a mistake, and there'd be no second chances with this beast.
"Alright, buddy, it's all on you now," Klaus said, rubbing the dragon tattoo on his arm. He had co up with a plan, and it was a wicked one.
He moved closer to the range where he knew the cheetah could sense him and stopped. Just as he expected, the cheetah turned its dark red eyes toward him, ready to lock on. At that mont, the dragon appeared in the air, roaring loudly.
The cheetah averted its gaze to the dragon. With a swift motion, the dragon slashed its tail, sending a sharp arc of fire that cut through the air. The cheetah retaliated by shooting a red fla laser beam from its demon eye.
The two attacks collided, resulting in a massive explosion. This gave Klaus the opening he needed to move forward. The cheetah, now focused on the dragon, roared and fired a terrifying red beam at it. It was fiercer than the first one.
The dragon responded by swinging its tail again, but it was no use—the laser cut through its body, dispersing it completely. Klaus, now only 50 ters away from the cheetah, coughed up blood when the dragon was destroyed.
There is a connection between them, so if he wasn't the one to deactivate or detonate the dragon, any attack that takes its life would have a backlash on him. Although not too severe, it was still dangerous enough to slow him down.
But he had prepared for this mont. With one attack in mind, he didn't hesitate. He closed the distance further, and when he was just 30 ters away, the Void Piercing Needle appeared alongside the Bell of Harrows. The bell rang, and at such close range, the sonic and soul attacks were lethal.
The cheetah staggered as the attack hit it very hard, and a smile crept onto Klaus's face. "Got your ass," he muttered.
The Void Piercing Needle shot forward, and before the cheetah could react, it pierced its eye, blinding it instantly. Klaus's plan was simple, disarm it before taking his ti to kill it properly
And now, the strongest and only weapon of the Laser-Eyed Demon Cheetah has been destroyed.
"It's Gang banging ti" He muttered.
