BXBX NOVEL Chapter 375 A Beast Binded By Its Desires
Rishi noticed that this Beast was strange. It stayed in this area and absorbed a large amount of Dragon Energy and Mana from the environment. It was a calm beast that didn\'t attack anyone until provoked. When it was hungry, it moved around to look for prey.
It was peculiar about the kinds of Beasts it consumed. It chewed some precious elixirs, but from its reaction, it looked like it was bored of eating all this stuff. He was a natural foodie who liked to enjoy different types of food. He tugged at a strange tree.
This tree was narrow and had a strangely smooth trunk. It had slightly pinky-colored branches, while the leaves at the top were dark pink. A strange misty presence surrounded it, and whenever Rishi approached it, he suddenly became relaxed and just wanted to sleep and enjoy.
He shook his head and came out of it. When he looked at the tree, he was more curious about what it was. The moment he used his \'inspect\' skill on it, a window appeared before him.
[NAME: Tree of Dream
GRADE: Epic
INFORMATION: A tree that helps people to get in a good mood and calm themselves could make anyone feel carefree. It can show you your deepest desires and make you experience how it would feel to achieve them.
USE: Could be used to create a bed with the same effect; Its leaves could be used to create a potion with similar effects.]
Rishi looked at it, and now he understood why this Wyrm liked this tree. This tree could calm anyone and make them feel good. This could also be dangerous for beings with weak minds, as they would never be able to leave it, but for those with strong minds, it could help to calm their minds.
The sun had already set on the horizon, and the moon had appeared again. Rishi had been keeping an eye on it the whole day and had noticed that, due to being in the presence of a tree, the mind of this creature had wavered. It had become a week, and instead of working hard to improve, it was wasting its potential just coiling around it.
Its situation was similar to that of a human exposed to drugs, while this tree was not evil. If someone stays in its presence for a long time, they could become addicted. The Beast looked as if it were not an adult. Rishi didn\'t know about its past, but he could guess it may have faced many rejections and hate.
It had a big dream in its mind, but it was so big that it was charmed by the thought of achieving it. The tree was having a negative effect on his mind. He was gaining pleasure by thinking about how much better it would be when he achieved those dreams instead of working towards achieving them.
Now that he looked at its pathetic condition, he was getting more confident that he could fool this Beast. Instead of working to become the best version of itself, it was wasting its time here. A smile appeared on his face as he made a plan. Taking this tree into account, he now had ways to make this creature suffer.
He would help Kajal tame it by using a very old strategy. He would have to become the bad guy and make this Beast\'s life miserable. Kajal would become its savior and treat it while helping him by providing it with delicious food, mental therapy, and taking care of him.
"This might not necessarily work on most humans, but for this beast that has succumbed to his Desires, he would not be able to see through it." He sighed as he thought about it. Finally, I have a plan; I only need to work on it and ensure everything is in place. With it, I might have a chance to succeed."
"Now that it\'s nighttime, it\'s time for me to hunt some lizardmen. I would also target some from the cavalry; I need to know their secrets." His shadow shook before it stooped up, turned into a long cloak, and surrounded him. The next moment, he disappeared.
A shadow could be seen moving around openly. It passed by some beasts, but no one was able to notice its presence, as if it didn\'t exist. Not long after it reached the swamp area, Rishi met his summons and collected the Ore they had collected.
It was mostly gold this time, while gold was not used to make weapons or armor. It was still a precious metal that could be exchanged for any currency or even Mana crystals. Rishi\'s Spatial ring was already filled with everything he had found here.
Thanks to his Shadow space, he could store all these things, which gave him a massive fifty-meter cubic space. He also found information about the lizardman from his fish soldiers; they had even discovered the location of some Swamp lizardmen, but Rishi didn\'t want to touch them for now.
"It would not be good to provoke them; I should only focus on the forest lizardman, making the swamp Lizardman believe that I have problems with only them, but once I take care of them, I would start looking into these Swamp lizardmen, their ability to hide and ambush makes them a tough enemy for others."
"They are easier to deal with due to their fragile bodies. The wyvern riders are the main threat to me. I would need to look into them more. Let\'s ambush the ones that have come to the border area. It\'s good for me that half of them returned to their Village after finding nothing. The more divided they are, the better for me."
"I should target their epic-level warriors. Once I have eliminated them, I can raid their Village with my full strength. With me and Kajal working with our Contract Beasts, it would not be hard to deal with the remaining ones."
He started moving around the area in his concealed form, looking for a suitable target.
"I should target a Raptor Rider first, so even if I am discovered later and cannot hunt others, I can at least get more information about them." He started looking for a suitable target; he ignored the infantry and focused on looking for the cavalry.
Not long after, his eyes fell on a strange creature moving around the swamp, splashing water. On its back was a humanoid reptilian riding, carrying two weapons. One was a shield, while the other was a Sharp spear. It looked bored, and its eyes were longing for sleep.
\'Found you\' he said as his lips curled up.
