Chapter 41 Overlevel Monster Slaying

This time, he didn't swing the iron rod to strike anymore. Instead, he used it as a spear and exerted all his strength to send the one-meter-long iron rod into the open mouth of the Leviathan Lizard, stabbing it down its throat.

Most of the one-meter-long iron rod went into the mouth of the Leviathan Lizard. Harry let out a low roar, exerted his arms, lifted the iron rod, and skewered the Leviathan Lizard, lifting it up.

With a loud crash, the Leviathan Lizard that Jackson had lifted was smashed onto the ground by him, making a huge noise.

The mouth of the Leviathan Lizard, which couldn't be closed, spewed out saliva.

Falling to the ground, the Leviathan Lizard kept convulsing and twisting, and although it didn't die immediately, the iron rod had pierced its important organs and caused fatal injuries. It was impossible to survive.

After dealing with one, the Leviathan Lizard that he had avoided earlier turned around and lunged at him. Harry took advantage of the situation and pulled the iron rod out of the dying Leviathan Lizard's mouth, jumped back diagonally with both feet, and avoided the attack.

Harry didn't expect the attack of this Leviathan Lizard to suddenly change. It propped up its four legs on the ground, shrunk its body slightly, and suddenly swept its tail like a huge whip.

Harry was caught off guard and was hit by this sudden tail. He immediately groaned and fell down. His thigh was painful, but fortunately it was not injured.

Harry knew it was not good and reacted quickly. He immediately rolled over and felt the stench hit him. The bloodthirsty mouth of this Leviathan Lizard appeared in front of him.

He cursed inwardly. He didn't have time to dodge, so Harry quickly blocked the iron rod in his hand. The mouth of the Leviathan Lizard bit the iron rod, almost grazing Harry's face, making him break out in a cold sweat.

What he feared most was that the Leviathan Lizard's mouth contained deadly poison. Therefore, in previous battles, he had always been cautious and had not dared to get too close. At this moment, he was forced to fight in close combat. Although the body of the Leviathan Lizard was relatively large, it was not as agile as Harry in close combat.

Just as the Leviathan Lizard had bitten the iron rod and was about to bite again, Harry clenched his left hand into a fist and hit the left side of the Leviathan Lizard's head with a punch.

The four "Fangs of Gluttony" that were ten centimeters long deeply penetrated into its head. Although this Leviathan Lizard had tough skin and strong flesh, it still could not resist the "Fangs of Gluttony".

With all his strength, Harry hacked down and split open half of the Leviathan Lizard's head.

Harry breathed a sigh of relief and kicked the creature away before quickly climbing to his feet. He saw that Jackson had also succeeded in defeating his own Leviathan Lizard.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

While Harry was busy dealing with two Leviathan Lizards, a fourth one appeared. Jackson had been hesitant to approach them before due to their deadly poison, so he had been using his shovel to attack from a distance. However, the Leviathan Lizards' defense was too strong, and although he managed to wound them, he couldn't deal a fatal blow.

When Jackson saw the fourth Leviathan Lizard charging towards him, he knew he was in trouble. With no other option, he put away his shovel and approached the creature, dodging its attacks and getting in close. Then, with a swift movement, he struck it hard with his right hand.

It takes courage to reach out to the mouth of this poisonous monster. Once bitten or scratched by its teeth, one may be poisoned. Fortunately, this attack did not fail. Jackson accurately hit the head of the Leviathan Lizard with his right hand, with a faint substance appearing in his palm, which was his special ability "Soul Devourer".

"Soul Devourer" was activated in an instant. The Leviathan Lizard was hit by this blow, stumbled forward for a few steps, suddenly rolled its eyes and fell heavily. Although there was no visible damage on its head, its internal organs had been destroyed, and red and white substances began to slowly seep out of its mouth and nose.

Having dealt with this Leviathan Lizard, the fourth one charged from behind. Jackson remained calm from his previous experience and swiped his steel shovel with his left hand.

With a "pop," he knocked the Leviathan Lizard away.

At this point, Harry had successfully killed two Leviathan Lizards, and two Spiritual Sources flowed into his body. Two messages appeared in his body.

"Level 2 Spiritweaver: Spiritual Source 9/20"

"Level 2 Spiritweaver: Spiritual Source 11/20"

"Hmm? Killing monsters that are beyond my level, each Leviathan Lizard can actually get two Spiritual Sources," Harry thought, feeling pleased. He ran towards Jackson while holding an iron rod.

As Jackson knocked the fourth Leviathan Lizard away, Harry charged from behind, grabbed the iron rod with both hands, and swung it down heavily.

With a "bang," the iron rod hit the back of the Leviathan Lizard. The monster roared in anger and swung its tail. With his previous experience, Harry easily jumped out of the way. Jackson rushed forward, and as the Leviathan Lizard turned its head and roared at Harry, Jackson hit the monster's head again with his right hand, activating "Soul Devourer" attack.

"Soul Devourer" was a special energy that could penetrate the skin and muscles and directly invade the brain, destroying its structure from the inside and causing it to die instantly.

The Leviathan Lizard that was hit by Jackson's "Soul Devourer" was swaying and then fell down softly.

"Only six more to go," Jackson's eyes shone with excitement.

Harry understood that he meant they needed six more Spiritual Sources, and he could evolve again.

"How many do you need?" Jackson saw two more Leviathan Lizards appearing on the roof, and immediately rushed towards the one on the left, saying, "I'll take care of the one on the left!"

"Nine more," Harry answered as he rushed towards the Leviathan Lizard on the right. He had a thought that although Jackson was a level 3 Spiritweaver, one level higher than himself, his strength... was not much stronger than himself.

He had sensed this from killing the Leviathan Lizard earlier. He had thought Jackson could easily crush the monster, but it was not the case. Jackson's victory was not much easier than his own.

"Could it be because I strengthened my muscles, but he chose to strengthen his lungs and stomach, giving up on muscle strengthening?" Harry pondered.

After all, he chose Muscle Hypertrophy, which directly increased his strength by one hundred pounds and improved his control over his muscles, which enhanced his strength and speed. Jackson chose to strengthen his lungs and stomach and gave up on muscle strengthening.

Olivia, who had been hiding at the stairs, suddenly heard a dense sound coming from the dark stairs behind her.
