I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

Chapter 333 Fastest On The Land

Brick Norty looked at Gregory's back and the forest not far away with a huge grin on his face, then he retracted his wings, and he descended in an instant...The impact of his fall cracked the ground ruthlessly, and it created a deep pit.

'Using the forest to buy time? Then I would gladly play a game. You are the mouse and I am the cat! If I kill you, it would surely make that Fein bastard suffer! HAHAHA!!' A weird laughter resounded in the place.

Suddenly, the monster's body shrank from sixteen meters to ten meters in height. He transformed into a gigantic dark orange cat. Yeah, Brick just used the genes of the cheetah. The faster animals on the land! The only difference was, instead of the iconic black dots of the cheetahs, it was replaced by eyeballs all around his body.

And the other difference was obviously the height, but the body structure was accurately the same. It was also this body structure that made the cheetah run faster than other animals. They were lighter, and their legs' evolution direction was simply for running. If one put it in game terms, it was the same as the player putting all his stat points into the agility attribute.

With the newfound speed, the cheetah, with dark fur, black mist on its hind legs, and eyes balls all over its body, quickly closed the distance. It ran like it was a part of the wind. And it's actually a hundred times faster than the cheetahs.

"What kind of power is that!? It can also change into other forms?!" Gregory ran furiously as if his life depends on it. 'Fuck! What should I do??'

After just three seconds, the dark cheetah finally closed the distance between the two of them to one meter.

Just like that, he lunged at Gregory and claws grew on his paws that reflected a cold-like metallic glint.

It was too fast for Gregory to dodge, and it instantly arrived on his body.

The claws of the cheetah tore the rock armor on Gregory's body like tofu. As the claws were about to rip his flesh, Gregory grabbed its paws with his bare hands and infused all his degu energy into his arms.

Yet he felt that he was lifting the weight of an entire mountain. Of course, that is not exaggerated. After all, the monster had the strength to kill an A-rank peak.

The paws only budged slightly. But it's already enough to redirect the trajectory of the claws.

As a result of his effort, the dark cheetah's claws landed on the rocky ground beside him, which was instantly ripped apart without producing too much sound.

Gregory couldn't help but swallow when he saw this. There's no doubt that the sharp claws would slice his flesh and old bones quite easily if the attack managed to hit him. And his fragile life would certainly end.

He clenched his fist and punched the dark cheetah in the neck, but it didn't do anything at all but enrage the monster further.

Brick opened his mouth, he intends to eat the human in front of him alive!

'Is this how I'm going to die?' A bitter smile appeared on his face. And all the memories and figures of people close to him in the Ranger's Eye and his family flashed before his eyes. 'Well, they can take care of themselves without me. And Fein would surely hunt this monster to avenge me.'

Gregory slowly closed his eyes and quietly waited for death.

After three seconds, he didn't feel that supposed pain that should have appeared. Instead, he felt something wriggling below, and his body was sucked forcefully.

Gregory felt dizzy as if he was sinking to the ground. When he opened his eyes, he only saw darkness all around him.

"Am I dead?" Gregory asked in confusion, but he could still see his body.

"Of course not. How could I let my captain die?" Michael's voice suddenly appeared behind him. "We are in the shadow realm."

Hearing this, Gregory finally understood what had transpired. "So you managed to pull me using your shadows in time?"

"The monster's teeth were only one inch on your head." Michael sighed.

'It seems it is still not my time yet?' Gregory touched his chest and just stared silently at the darkness with a serene expression.

He just experienced a near-death situation. Although he wasn't really that afraid of death. He still wants to live and continue to be part of every member of the Ranger's Eyes lives.

...

[Flashback]

Brick opened his mouth and aimed it at Gregory's head. He pictured a bloody fountain to happen while he would enjoy every second of it.

As he was about to let his fangs penetrate Gregory's hard skull and savor the bloody taste. The shadows all around the place trembled. Then, Gregory's body sank as if the shadows below became a swamp.

Brick Norty, in his cheetah form, stood dumbfounded. He looked at the soil where Gregory laid earlier.

After a few moments, he morphed back into his original form. As Fein always sometimes talks about his friends in the Ranger's eye. So Brick Norty was quite familiar with the shadow ability.

'That ability was Michael's?' His mind became clouded with intense negative thoughts again. Angry at the fact that someone saved the target that he was about to kill!

The pupils on multiple eyeballs all over his body continuously rotated counterclockwise. 'If Gregory and Michael are here. Doesn't that mean that he was also here? This is my chance for revenge!'

Brick Norty transformed into a large bird with dark feathers. He would be faster this way.

Just like that, he flew back towards that city. He knew that he didn't need to find Fein because they came here for him!

Although he was still not as smart as before, he only need to devour another thousand humans, and he would acquire the intelligence of the original Brick Norty.

The monster couldn't help but become excited when he thought of this. Power added with high intelligence would pave the way for him to become the supreme being! A strong strength isn't enough for him. For that to happen... He needed to absorb the vitality of creatures! And he has to record different genes as much as possible.
